Donald Trump Denies Reality

Live from Ukraine ????????
Kyiv The blood of Ukrainian defenders and civilians has been flowing for nearly 200 weeks, and the Russian Federations goal remains the same: to destroy this countrys sovereignty. US PresidentDonald Trumps so-called Peace efforts have led to a further escalation in Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilian infrastructurein the past week, with a 40% increase in the number of aerial bombs compared to the previous year and a fifth more kamikaze drones, all targeting drones the critical infrastructure such as energy that had been spared during the two-year period between 2022 and 2024. In particular, Russian air forces are now inflicting heavy damage on 110kV substations and gas storage facilities that the Ukrainians had managed to repair and protect with basic safeguards, only to destroy them completely. For the sixth time in the last two months, Russian missiles also hit the DTEK coal mining operations yesterday, damaging the plant in Dnipropetrovsk.

The distribution of Russian attacks aims to apply greater pressure on Ukraines most productive regions while simultaneously cutting off the supply routes of military logistics near the front lines, seeking to offset the damage inflicted deep within the Russian Federation by Operation Deep Strike.
Long-range drones made in Ukraine have continued to target Russian oil refining and storage facilities, causing visibledamage now estimated at between 27 and 30% of the Russian Federations total production capacity.This has repercussions in all those areas of the front where Moscow would like to push harder but where its soldiers end up overwhelmed by Ukrainian fire without being able to count on mechanized support.
One of the clearest examples isPokrovsk, where the ZSU yesterday repelled yet another enemy infiltration attempt, neutralizing all the expendables sacrificed by the Russian command. A similar situation occurred a few kilometers away on theKostiantynivka front, where, after failing their only two recent mechanized assaults, the Russians lost more cannon fodder. Further up, they are struggling to conquer the western sector of Chasiv Yar, which they want to use for military advantage to advance on Kramatorsk. Groups of three or four of their infantrymen are sent in on motorcycles, often preceded by one or more drones, and almost always end up being immediately neutralized, just as on the Kupiansk flank.

Its now clear thatthe Russian summer offensive has failed.The autumn one has started and likely will end similarly.Describing it in reverse is just an exercise in speculation, not news.Likewise,claiming that Moscow isnt making any progress is wrong and shows unwarranted optimismbecause the 30,000 Russians sent into the Ukrainian fighting in September have resulted in advances of about 130140 square kilometers on the Novopavlivka front, the only area where Moscow has seen some minor success.
Instead of throwing them in the air, Donald Trump should have carefully reviewed the military plans phis Ukrainian counterpart showed him to understand the situation in Donbas. Similarly, faced with targeted Russian attacks on the energy sector as described, he would have been better off listening to requests for protecting Ukraines skies and civilian population if peace truly was the goal of his efforts. Unfortunately,the meeting in Washington between the two was a failure and another denial of reality.

基辅乌克兰卫士和平民的鲜血已经流淌了近200周，俄罗斯联邦的目标仍然不变：摧毁这个国家的主权。美国总统唐纳德川普所谓的和平努力导致过去一周俄罗斯对乌克兰民用基础设施的袭击进一步升级，空中炸弹数量比上一年增加了40%，神风无人机数量增加了五分之一，所有这些都以2022年至2024年期间幸免的关键基础设施为目标，例如能源。特别是，俄罗斯空军现在正在对110kV变电站和天然气储存设施造成严重破坏，乌克兰人设法修复和用基本保障措施保护的这些设施，被完全摧毁。在过去两个月中，俄罗斯导弹第六次袭击了DTEK煤矿作业，破坏了第聂伯罗彼得罗夫斯克的发电厂。

俄罗斯袭击的分布旨在对乌克兰生产力最高的地区施加更大的压力，同时切断前线附近的军事后勤供应路线，旨在抵消乌方通过深度打击行动在俄罗斯联邦境内造成的损害。
乌克兰制造的远程无人机继续瞄准俄罗斯的炼油和储存设施，造成可见的损失，目前估计为俄罗斯联邦总产量的27%至30%。这对所有前线地区都产生了影响，莫斯科希望在这些地区能进一步推进，但其士兵最终被乌克兰的火力压制，无法指望机械化支援。
一个最明显的例子是波克罗夫斯克，乌军昨天击退了另一次敌方进攻企图，消灭了俄罗斯指挥部牺牲掉的所有耗材。几公里外的科斯蒂安季尼夫卡前线也发生了类似的情况，在那里，在最近仅有的两次机械化攻击失败后，俄罗斯人损失了更多的炮灰。此外，他们正在努力征服切尔西夫亚尔西部地区，他们希望在那里获得军事优势，向克拉马托尔斯克推进。三到四人组成的小组通常乘坐摩托车被派往前线，前面通常有一架或多架无人机，几乎总是立即被消灭，就像在库皮扬斯克侧翼一样。

现在很明显，俄罗斯的夏季攻势已经失败。秋季攻势已经开始，但很可能会以类似的方式结束。以相反的方式描述战事只是一种臆想，不是新闻。同样，声称莫斯科没有取得任何进展也是错误的，并显示了无端的乐观情绪，因为九月份派往乌克兰战斗的3万名俄罗斯人已在新帕夫利夫卡前线取得了约130-140平方公里的进展，这是莫斯科唯一取得一些小成就的地区。
唐纳德川普应该仔细审查乌克兰盟友向他展示的军事计划，以了解顿巴斯的局势，而不是把它们扔到空中。同样，如上所述，面对俄罗斯对能源部门的有针对性的攻击，如果和平真的是唐纳德川普努力的目标，他最好听从保护乌克兰天空和平民的请求。不幸的是，两人在华盛顿的会晤是失败，也是对现实的又一次否认。
