Conclusions After Four Years of Full-Scale Invasion
Today at 5 AM, four years of full-scale invasion have passed, and the fifth year of the large-scale phase of war against the rabid gas station has begun. Those who drove to work through central Kyiv today saw the traffic jam that formed due to closed central streets. No surprise — on the fourth anniversary of the war, high-ranking guests from various adequate countries arrived. According to official data, the President of the European Council and leaders of Croatia, Estonia, Latvia, Iceland, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway arrived in Kyiv. Several other countries and organizations are represented at a different level.
It should be especially noted that for the fourth anniversary of the full-scale war with Russia, Hungary and Slovakia sent no one from their political teams. Instead, they announced the cessation of diesel supplies to Ukraine and emergency electricity supply. Apparently, Pootin’s whores didn’t learn their master’s lessons — he once decided to stop gas supplies to Europe too. Now his gas extraction component of the economy sits in deep shit, along with oil. All because uneducated organisms, losing their minds, forgot the market’s basic principle: “nature abhors a vacuum”.
Highest Honor to the Heroes
Of course, everyone has their own memories of what the morning of February 24, 2022 was like. But the scale of war became so enormous that memories of everything that happened during this time would extend far beyond an article. Of course, we are obliged to honor the memory of all those who laid down their heads in the fight against the rabid horde calling itself the “Russian Federation”. Moreover, we must honor both those about whom it became known where and how they died, and also those who accepted their last battle and fell without witnesses and a single piece of information about that battle and about those who didn’t come out of it. These are people who entered battle understanding its outcome before the battle began. This is how samurai, Vikings, and our ancestors — the Zaporizhian Cossacks — entered battle. Therefore, to all of them — highest honor.
Probably many have already forgotten that when the enemy received a rebuff while operating in blitzkrieg mode, infighting started there about who gave the wrong information that led to disrupting the initial invasion phase. Pidars¹ actively accused the FSB, and the FSB accused the Pidars. Intelligence data underlying Russian combat planning indicated that 75 to 90 percent of Ukraine’s population supported “reunification” with the Swamps². That’s why in the first enemy columns, atomized in Kyiv and Chernihiv oblasts, hundreds of parade uniform sets were found — for a parade planned on Khreshchatyk in just a few days. In other words, this wasn’t just combat planning, but complete confidence that the campaign would be finished literally in a few days, not even weeks.
We Stood Firm
But the healthy part of Ukrainian society that woke to explosions repelled the first attacks and managed to coordinate at the grassroots level. It reached the point where in Kyiv, bandits together with police jointly shot Russian paratroopers. This means Khuilo³ miscalculated again. Just as with Maidan, he underestimated the level of Ukrainian self-organization.
In the end, he got the worst war of those described by Sun Tzu. By the way, even the Soviet Union didn’t have such an inept and prolonged war as the one Pootin threw the Swamps into. Afghanistan doesn’t count, because there the Soviet army didn’t face a regular army as an opponent and operated in punitive expedition mode — that’s different.
Four years of full-scale invasion have proven that Ukraine’s resistance wasn’t a fluke. It was national character crystallizing under pressure. The enemy expected crowds with flowers, but they got Javelins and coordinated defense. They expected collapse in days, but they got years of grinding attrition that’s destroying their military capability faster than they can regenerate it.
Advice to Partners and Friends
As we remember, before the full-scale invasion, the enemy conducted several exercises near our borders — both on its territory and on Belarus territory. No surprise that the invasion later began from exactly there. Well, on the whole, exercises are the practical execution of initial measures for committing aggression. Troop concentration happens there, their deployment and advance to starting positions. Another thing is that there can be two endings — stand down and go home, or combat ammunition is issued and the command “Forward” arrives.
Right now, exercises are happening near the borders of Poland, the Baltic countries, and partially Finland. Under no circumstances can these countries show the algorithm of victim behavior. If they allow even the slightest weakness, invasion will be inevitable. Pootin raised such sludge from the very bottom of his cesspool that it won’t stop. Moreover, if a ceasefire regime emerges in Ukraine (which is unlikely), you can start the countdown to invasion of one of these countries. The Orcs⁴ themselves won’t stop, but they can and must be stopped. The very essence of the Swamps must cease to exist in today’s borders. Nothing else will work here. Partners should carefully look at what and how Ukraine did on the eve of the full-scale invasion, and not repeat a number of our mistakes.
About the Enemy and About Us
We saw an enemy who wants to destroy us. Destruction is its essence, and right now it wants to do this to us. But as it turns out, this is a game that can and must be played by two. For the first time, it’s suffering such wild losses in a war it planned to finish if not in three days, then certainly in three weeks. Therefore, we have no choice – Either vanish, or destroy this poisonous creature so that its pieces no longer pose a threat. What’s important here — we’ve learned to do this better than anyone in history.
After four years of full-scale invasion, one thing is clear: Ukraine didn’t just survive — it’s winning. The war isn’t over, but the outcome is no longer in doubt. We will emerge from this war much stronger and smarter than we were before. Despite everything, the process is happening irreversibly. We already have our own powerful national idea. We have our pantheon of Heroes and a list of real, bright victories. In other words, we already have everything needed to strengthen the nation, and we are obliged to do this at least in memory of those tens of thousands of our military personnel and civilians who gave their lives to provide us this opportunity. In short, we have no options: we will win!
Footnotes
¹Pidar (pronounced “pidar”) – Ukrainian military slang for a Russian service member. In radio communications, the word “Pidar” sounds shorter and clearer than “Enemy” especially under EW.
²Swamps – an ironic name for Russia, emphasizing decay, stagnation, and filth. The Commander of the USF, Robert Browdie, and most soldiers use this word.
³Khuilo – the most popular nickname for Russian dictator V. Putin. First used during the 2014 invasion, and since 2022 most Ukrainians call him only that. See more on Wikipedia.
⁴Orcs – a common term for Russians who support or participate in the armed aggression against Ukraine. Dehumanizing? Yes. Accurate? Also yes
