Or he has concentrated large amounts of troops nearby. There's nothing to gain to let the enemy know whats up.

Agreed… France Germany Hungary… Russia had been busy spreading their authoritarian agenda against democracy. I honestly don’t understand why people think they would be better off.

a reverse Verdun if you would, a position that while important was meant to be a bleeding ulcer to the invader.

Reply to comment by Vanished_Elephant in Macron flies to Africa to counter waning French influence by HRJafael
Its not just his videos I am worried about.
There have been several anti-France (not so much "anti-French" as in the French people) videos by so-called political channels, and they don't really cite their info on such issues.
Kinda similar to all the anti-US & anti-NATO videos regarding Ukraine but their talking points are distinctively Russia/China.
No one wants to cite their sources properly anymore, and just want to chase the algorithms or fact-check their stuff (Another channel I can think of that keeps getting recommended to me after I un-subbed from them is TLDR news.)

Togoland, yea.
The western part of Togoland occupied by the British got sucked into modern day Ghana.
The eastern part became modern day Togo thanks to the French

Reply to China accuses U.S. of ‘disinformation’ over warnings it’s considering sending artillery and ammo to Russia by diana321
Accusing each others on its intentions without clues becomes an habit that should be prohibited in politics. It is useless and envenom relations already enough tense. Could all those leaders behave like adults i/o behave like childs in a kindergarten Please stick to facts !

"One more such victory and we are undone" - King Pyrrhus of Epirus, origin of the term 'Pyrrhic victory', which is what Bakhmut would be considered to the Russians. He was famous for winning stunning victories against the Romans that involved so many casualties on his side that he could never capitalise on them.
