Putin's top general left Russia's border open to attack in huge blunder 

Gerasimov should be awarded Ukraine's highest military honour.

Compare the retreating Russia soldiers looting shops and private homes and not assisting the residents in any way with the way the Ukrainian troops helped the local residents with water, food and medical treatment.

Thankfully, for Ukraine, Russian generals are chosen for their unquestioning obedience and not for their intelligence or any originality of thought.

I am Russian live Samara. What is not told, here, is how many people in Kursk welcomed Ukrainians. I don't see it possible for my Russia to retake Kursk

It’s a counter attack! Not an invasion.

Lapin wasn't really a top general. Lapin failed abyssmally earlier in the war. The wonder is that he still had any command. Presumably he was seen as loyal. There is no other reason that a man of Lapins 'talents' would have any sort of command. Long may Russian incompetance and stupidity continue.

What we should be seeing is for Russia to leave Ukraine. There should be no analysis in favor of Russia.

We are seeing the last weeks of Putin!!

Sergey Narishkin Lapin and Gerrasimov will be brewing their own tea from now on.

so in French the guy is called General Rabbit 🐇 So appropriate 🤣🤣🤣

Slava Ukraine!!!!!💙💛

Is that general going to be FLYING OFF THE 12TH FLOOR? MEETING a hypodermic dipped in squid ink?

Pootin is a paper tiger. Remember Prigozhin how he Waltzed into Moscow largely unimpeded? Pootin and his oligarchs have been gutting and selling off military assets for decades now and it shows. Thats it for Pootin and Russia.

The general will be taking a holiday with a view from the window.

That general better stay away from his Windows😂😂😂😂😂

Major blunder? I believe Major Blunder is about to be promoted to Field Marshall in the Russian Army.

That general is window-bound & flightless as an emu

Oh no, more problematic windows in sight.

Ukraine now in control of 92 towns and over 1200 square kilometres of russia....for those mindless trolls saying it is only empty fields they hold....

Story is, nothing in Russia happens without the support of V.Puti. If generals act without V.Puti's support, they likely fall out a window or eat bad sturgeon roe. Some blow up during transportation.

Those windows in Russia are gonna be working overtime

didn't sound like the people of Kursk want to live under Russian rule the way they Wellcomed the Ukrainian soldiers ..I think their happy tobe Ukrainian

General Lapin and Windows come to mind🪟 🤔

Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥️ ❤️

Of course it’s always someone else’s fault. These dictator worshippers are so evil!

A Russian general left the border undefended? Dude better defect to Ukraine immediately. If he can't do that, he'd better stay out of tall buildings and refuse any tea that is served to him.

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

SLAVA UKRAINE ❤️‍🔥 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 🇺🇸

Look at all the Orc troll comments disappearing. People must be downvoting them like crazy to put so many at the bottom of comments.

Putin is done

He will be flying out of a window quite soon.

Audio is understandable not excellent but you still get the message.. must be Russian bots complaining...!

Spain was ruled by Moors for 750 years. In the battle of Singapore, Japan lost 1000 soldiers and took 100,000 British POWs.

END OF EVIL PUTIN

The buck stops with Putin.

Thank you for the informed report and for not saying “boots on the ground”.

Someone buy the man a better webcam with a nice microphone

Blunder or sabotage?

Russia Kursk border open Ukraine must take advantage of they must all in and defend it 😆😆😆

General "Rabbit" 🤣🤣 Ruzzia has a (sick) joke army.

Officially, Russia is expecting a major NATO invasion any second. In reality, some ‘pro-Finnish separatists’ could occupy East Karelia in three days and hold a referendum there.

The ghost of Prigozhin shouting “Gerasimov! Shoigu!” 😂😂😂😂😂

Mayor blunder. And general disaster

Is Kursk in danger? 😂😂😂😂

I wonder where Ukraine got the idea to annex territory.

Our friends in Ukraine know how to exploit every Russian weakness and take advantage of every opportunity.

300k is not a minuscule portion of Russia by any means

Sound test prior to interview ensures your guest gets best attention

I think Putin left the border open That the UDF can enter essily. 😂😂😂😂

Muffled sound and a monotone, waffling contributor - you're normally so much better than this Times Radio!

audio is very bad....

The sound quality of this video is not good.

Taking this area is a future bargaining chip. The troops that were sent there were all conscripts, they have no interest in being killed for a madman's ego.

Why have half of the interview. The answers lose context with out the questions.

In before sycophants

Rest assured but you definitely aint gonna see that "TOP GENERAL "pretty soon,NO MORE!!!!!!!!!!!

Terrible sound quality. 😕

Ok guys, this is the second video I've seen from you in the last couple of days that's "raw" - unedited. Clearly it's just the "initial take" of your guest talking, and no one has polished it into a presentable format. That's just unprofessional - I had a higher opinion of you than that. I hadn't seen anything of the sort until a few days ago - what has happened? It's unfair to your guest too - when a guest says "I'm sorry, can I repeat that please?" they CLEARLY expect you to edit that out. I'm sure they are not expecting to see that aired exactly the way it went down.

Just another chapter of Vladimir Putin's "Special Military Clusterf**k"!

God bless Ukraine 🇺🇦 🇺🇦🇺🇦❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

Reporting live from the bottom of the sea

Imagine shyster trump being a general?

The idea was that Russia was supposed to be ATTACKING, so they wouldn't need any troops to defend the border. I get the concept, but the military situation changed and Russia failed to adjust.

Sun Tzu said: "The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected." Putin either didn't read, or didn't understand Sun Tzu.

Maybe they should have run this by an editor? He's answering questions, that we don't hear. Then he does second takes after a flub, which you left in. Absolutely shoddy for a professional media organisation!

Meh, he has the resources given to him from those above him, and it wasn't enough. Hard to blame him for he fact that he didn't get enough troops.

Keep exploiting that fir all its worth

Good chat

Coup d’etat…mais ou est l’etat…in shambles becmoning…

Don't believe everything on the Internet

Ukraine must gain more territory and keep it, be more practical, strategic and create its weapons and ammunition to be able to negotiate later.

Huge blunder or deliberate ?????

terrible sound

Did anyone edit this?

Well pretty beneficial to Russia it seems Ukraine wasted his best stuff in kursk just to get some forests...

Índia cannot solve the problem but can help if has good will…

🇺🇲 🇺🇦

Russia will nuke space,satellite exc when he feels he has to of loosing the war..😮😮 💯 🤔

We pandering to Putins excuses now?

KURSK IS UKRAINE

Unbelievable...

Why is Putin still in power? Gorbachev was ousted for less.

It is a pity that Ukraine can't join NATO NOW! That would give them the chance to win!

Great video ❤

Less than a minute and my hearing begged me to get out, so I did.

Happy Independence Day to all Ukrainians! 🎉 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🎉

Zelensky sounds tied, hope he is ok ❤

It is very funny

Comrade General Lapin needs to be promoted to Head of Russian Armed Forces. Conflict will be over in weeks due to his brilliant strategies.

Impossible to listen to. Gave up.

What do you mean? It was on purpose, wars have to last.

Cant watch it .Audio pathetic

I ont fault Russia for not defending every inch of their border. I do fault them for being unable to monitor, their border or quickly redeploy troops.

O, definitely, could you please tell me about Pearl Harbor? Yes, dearest, Roosevelt knew about it. What was it? Embarrassment, or possibility to declare war to Japan? You can tell me about 3000 dead American sailors, military specialists, and clowns 🤡 from Newsweek!😂😂😂

Times past 🇬🇧

The front line is in the Dombas. It's at a critical stage. Ukraine or Russia moving resources away from the front line is madness.

🇬🇧🫶🇺🇦

God will be on the right side.

Zelensky opens the eastern front line to Russia to attack Kursk in major blunder

Kursk is a farming area. Empty wheat and sunflower fields. But while the comedian has his troops playing in empty fields... "The Associated Press has cited statements from commanders and soldiers within Ukraine's armed forces, who have observed conscripts leaving the battlefield. Military leaders have pointed out that the lack of experience among these new recruits is a contributing factor to Russian territorial gains in eastern Ukraine. A battalion commander from Ukraine's 47th Brigade expressed concern, saying: "Some people don't want to shoot. They see the enemy in the firing position in trenches but don't open fire... that is why our men are dying." He further lamented the ineffectiveness of soldiers who hesitate to use their weapons. Echoing this sentiment, another soldier highlighted the issue of self-preservation among the new conscripts, noting a marked difference from earlier resilience: "The main problem is the survival instinct of newcomers. Before, people could stand until the last moment to hold the position. Now, even when there is light shelling of firing positions, they are retreating." This is an act of desperation by Ukraine.
