“Russia needs ‘cannon fodder,” adds another specialist, Pavel Luzin, a researcher at the Center for European Policy Analysis, who believes that the majority come from countries in Central Asia and Africa, in addition to Syria and Afghanistan, more specifically. Although it is unknown how many foreigners fight with Moscow, their recruitment tries to convey the idea that there is international support for this war. And he adds: “Without speaking the language, knowing the local terrain or having the proper training for modern warfare, they will all be killed quickly.”
Russia isn’t likely to get a lot more of them as Cuban government recently prohibited recruitment of Cubans to orc army and arrested multiple recruiters. Even Cuba turned away from russia.
““Russia needs ‘cannon fodder,” ”
I wonder if he said the same about all the foreign mercenaries (most of whom were either killed or quit in disgust before they could be killed) who were recruited to fight for Ukraine?
Russia doesn’t need to do anything but sit behind their fortifications and wait for the weather to change, now that the Great Ukrainian Counter-offensive has fizzled out. While they wait for the first *inevitable* offer of ‘peace talks’, they are watching with some amusement as support for Ukraine decreases all over the world, making their bargaining position even stronger.
1. Foreign fighters in Ukraine are not mercenaries but volunteers.
2. Most were neither killed nor quit. After their agreed upon tenure of service they either renewed or declined renewal.
3. Russia throwing forces in counter attacks with mixed but mostly low results is not russians sitting behind fortifications. If they were sitting behind fortifications they would be annihilated. Even russians are not that stupid. They’re getting pounded much more than Ukrainians. It is actually amazing that orcs in defense are suffering heavier loses than Ukrainians in the attack.
4. The offensive did not “fizzled” in or out. First you morons created a strawman of rapid breakthrough followed by a raid that you bravely claimed would never succeed and then you have been defeating him ever since. It is your strawman, so who cares? The reality is both sides are constantly adjusting their tactics. And it is not a feature of recent weeks but of the whole war.
5. Ukrainians took what NATO taught them, quickly adapted what was useful to the specific battlefield and keep tweaking their tactics. Orcs are doing similar but the structure and philosophy of russian army discourages that (a russian commander is going to get medals when ordering a bloody assault even if it fails (Vuhledar) and the one preserving lives of his troops will be sent back as not being eager enough to advance. But still orcs are learning too.
6. The human wave attacks are a figment of your demented imagination. These only happened few times when Wagner ordered their mobilized prisoners into “meat sturms” at Bahmut. These were the only documented examples of meat sturms. Meat sturms do not happen on either side. Russians are however much less elastic in maneuver defense and less likely to adjust their tactics mid fight. VDV with much better coms and coordination tend to be good at adjusting and recognizing opportunities, the rest of orcs not so much.

“1. Foreign fighters in Ukraine are not mercenaries but volunteers.”
Right. And that’s why (as was widely reported by the New York Times, the Jerusalem Post, Al Jazeera, Newsweek, etc, etc) they are being paid $2000 dollars *per day*: it’s their clothing allowance, right?
“2. Most were neither killed nor quit. After their agreed upon tenure of service they either renewed or declined renewal. ”
Most didn’t live long enough to quit.
“They’re getting pounded much more than Ukrainians. It is actually amazing that orcs in defense are suffering heavier loses than Ukrainians in the attack. ”
You’re delusional.
“The offensive did not “fizzled” in or out. ”
TWO villages. Two. That’s the sum total of the Great Offensive so far (and who knows how many dead Ukrainians). Yeah, a real rousing success, that.
“6. The human wave attacks are a figment of your demented imagination.”
Tell that to the families of all the dead Ukrainians.
“…they are being paid $2000 dollars *per day*: it’s their clothing allowance, right?”
Nonsense, utter complete nonsense, you are living in your own little world. NEVER happened.
“Most didn’t live long enough to quit.”
Again your little world, where everyone on Ukrainian side has died ten times over already.
“TWO villages. Two. That’s the sum total of the Great Offensive so far ”
Ugh nope, now you’re just not paying attention.
“(and who knows how many dead Ukrainians).”
A lot less than russians, that is for sure.
“Yeah, a real rousing success, that.”
Never claimed that. Mild success at best. But as usual you’re ignorant of the fact that orcs failed to show initiative on a larger scale since Bakhmut, that is how many months already? So Ukrainian success is strategic in that sense.
You morons have been forecasting russia winning it just next day, just next week, just next month and now you’re proud that russia is holding the line sometimes and giving only a little land at some other times. Because having no initiative at the front line and being reactive is a time honored russian tactic and a genius one at that. Again pure fantasy.
I know that in your world orcs are playing cards in their bunkers while Ukrainian human waves are getting machinegunned or something. But the reality is that you simply ignore facts and invent a lose collection of your own.
“Tell that to the families of all the dead Ukrainians.”
None of whom has died in a human wave attack. None, literarily none. Ukrainian human wave attacks are 100% your invention.
“None of whom has died in a human wave attack. None, literarily none. Ukrainian human wave attacks are 100% your invention.”
Actually that was your own straw man, since I have never used the term ‘human wave attacks’.

Trudeau had a stopover in Ireland on the way home from India? Who knew?
Courtesy of our Federal Government and Quebec, more money for foreign manufacturers who set up shop in Eastern Canada. Fed. Minister of Trade and Commerce François-Philippe Champagne and Quebec Premier Francois Legault (on National TV) announced today that Nordvolt, a Swedish battery manufacturer would receive several millions for this venture.
Champagne and PQ Premier Francois Legault were both snapping their suspenders at the announcement. They also praised themselves at their large allocation of grants to both the Northvolt plant in Quebec and the VW auto plant in Ontario.
Wait a minute?? Volkswagen?? Were they not associated with the Nazi Party in Germany during WWII?? How about Sweden?? Didn’t Sweden remain neutral during WWII, and yet sign agreements to allow Nazi trains to transport troops and equipment on their railroads?? And why are the Quebec and Ontario Liberals not concerned with this?? Only two days after the Yaroslav Hunka incident, why are the Libs not talking about WWII Nazi connections?? Total hypocites!!
Yes, Hitler helped create Volkswagen as he wanted an affordable car for all Germans. For heaven’s sake, the word “Volkswagen” literally means Folk’s wagon.
On another note, the fashion house, Hugo Boss created and made Nazi uniforms using Jewish and Polish slave labour.
It is always amazing to me that people have such short memories!

liberallythinking – I am sure it is only coincidence that it was recently claimed the CPP is the best performing government pension fund in the world – claiming 10% per annum over what I recall was the past 10 years. This is hot on the heels of claims of 8% per annum. I took my benefits early. As I continued to work , I also continue to contribute. Both sides -employee and employer – as I am self employed. My increased benefits will return my remittances in about 20 years . Who is stealing my 10% return? Not to mention the associated inflation theft. Thank goodness we have the government to “steward” our investments and protect us from “disinformation”.

I don’t normally post smaller economic anecdotes. As a general rule, business can fail in boom times and succeed when times are tough. But this is a bit different due to the size of the company. It’s a large seamless metal pipe supplier in Ohio. Think 1″ to 5″ diameter. Normally they load 8 trucks a day. They’re down to 4 a week. That’s a reduction of 90%.
