Putin's troops don't have the tanks needed for Kharkiv breakthrough | Dr Patrick Bury 

This could be as bad as when the Russians 'ran out' of missiles last year...

Love this channel they are so funny 😂😂😂😂

If Russia cannot take kharkiv and are out of tanks, then how are they going to take the rest of europe like you've been claiming everyday?

that old chestnut again - supposedly Rus troops on the front line have been fighting for 18 months with shovels

Yeah yeah.., and those with abundance of weaponry are retreating!🤪

I heard that Russia captured a letterbox on the outskirts of a tiny hamlet.

Just wanted to say that the reason why Ukraine did not build defences right on the border with Russia is because the people making them would have been killed. The west has stated how Ukraine is not allowed to use western weapons on Russia, so the solution was quite simple. Build defences a few kilometres back so as not to be right under Russian noses first and foremost. Then if or when Russia did launch an attack, then Ukraine would have an area on Ukrainian territory, where they can use western weapons on the attacking Russians, thus not breaking the agreement made with the west. Plus the defences would be in place and not destroyed while people had tried to build them.

That academic bloke sounds like a pub war debater at best …

Every Times Radio headline seems to echo the same sentiment -'Russia Can't Win'. Same for the past eighteen months. Pity Putin never seems to read them...

why is your thumbnail of a Ukrainian tank in WII German markings?

"Middle Power Nations Like Russia." The Shade! 😂🤣😅

How did you know? Did u audit them?

No Buffer Zone. You Have A Border!!

They got washing machines. And Shovels .....looks like thats enough against 0:56 Western weapons 😂

He says “The West” when something good comes up. When it’s something bad “The Americans didn’t send the aid”

They do not need armour, they have shovels 🙂

Thanks!

So when they make the breakthrough does that mean God is on their side or? Putin is a magician?

Excellent guest for Front Line. Thank you RS. Canada

Where do you get?

Russia has the largest tank force (at least in terms of numbers) in the world. And they are producing them like mad. They could be out of a lot of things but tanks aren`t one of them!

Oh, so now theyre running out of tanks too pmsl. In the last 18 months theyve ran out of ammo, shells, missiles, soldiers, and now tanks. Its a miracle that they still keep relentlessly advancing despite ukraine having none of these problems 😂

Good.

This idea that Russia is trying to create a buffer zone is ridiculous. Russia is trying to get close enough to Kharkiv to use artillery.

Then NATO got nothing to fear, right??

This officer nails it, both good and bad. NATO slicing salami and if Ukraine 🇺🇦 fails, NATO becomes a sad joke. High stakes?

Russian shovel warriors are still capturing more and more land... Looks like we are in trouble.

Why do we still talk about Garasimov. We have hardly seen him since he was hit by that missile in Crimea. He looked a shell when we saw him vote.

A giy in central London talking and analyzing about the war in Ukraine 😂

Everything has been too late too little with too many strings and caveats as to how it can be used.How would you be expected to fight in such circumstances.

As long as they don't run out of shovels

We are so unprepared, Putin has had 12 months to prepare while we say how great we are

Russia turned This On, Russia, can't Turn This Off!

Tactical,rather than having anything to do with shortage of heavy equipment.

Times Radio appears to inhabit an alternative reality.

Why spend money on tanks when you’re doing so well with shovels 👍

I always get 2 sides of the story

What’s British can help without USA?

Propaganda to it's fullest. Russia is not even using it's modern weapons in this special operation

Prop.A.Ganda.

On the topic of F-16s and air cover: Are there any Migs left in the EU/NATO countries? If so, that would be shameful that the aircraft that the Ukrainians are familiar with are being withheld.

Russia is running out of tank barrels, converting these tanks to turtle tanks.

Well Russia gain alot of territory just by using shovel.

In fact, Russia produces more tanks in a month than the entire Collective West (including the US) produces in a year. It would be nice if (just for a change) Times Radio booked a guest who isn't completely clueless.

Hilarious, as usual. Thanks Chaps 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And the tanks they have get kaboomed!

Attrition is name of Russia’s game

I think Dr Patrick Bury needs to go for a walk and clear that grey matter. My lord, the west have been saying this for nearly two years now. Russia CAN keep this up for years. Can the west?

So obvious that none of the 'not russian bot' posters have even watched the video. It's actually pretty pessimistic from a Ukrainian POV.

Small units plus no armor means small gains but no ultimate win in this evil war!

And everyday they have less

One of your best shows on the War in Ukraine - Dr Bury was insightful, I’d like to see him more often

Total nonsense!

Well i dooesnt seemd. to😅 matter

Patrick Bury: good choice!

The F-16's wont make any difference, at all. They will join the rest of the aircraft on the scrapheap in short order.

I think if you look at a map rarely people do Nato moved onto Russias doorstep , Russia didn't move onto ours . And for the BOT paranoid society I'm a Yorkshire Bot , By Eck !

the USA cant deal with spoilt kids at unis haha Russia is laughing

Are the Ukraine armed forces still in Robotyne?

Has the Ukraine army taken the Crimean peninsula yet?

They do have the tanks. They have at least one years supply. Be patient and they will work through them.

More utter drivel from the Times 😂 Russia has more tanks than America can afford to run 😂 Empire is crumbling ❤

Meanwhile from the Ukrainian people actually at the front: "Russian tanks have entered the northern part of Vovchansk and are shooting inside the city," National Police officer Ihor Kharchenko reports. We must send a lot more defense systems to Ukraine and stop the self-reassuring commentary that Russia doesn't have enough capabilities for this or that. Ukraine is underfunded, under-supplied and its people are being sacrificed unnecessarily because we in NATO are too slow and fall short at providing the equipment Ukraine needs to push back. It's not enough, and underestimating the enemy is a terrible strategy for Europe.

Why don't you bring back the British Intelligence chief who was sayin in 2022 that Russia is running out of weapons...🤔

We won the war in Iraq but lost in Afghanistan

Ah, the brilliance of the commentators below. At times you would think they know what they are talking about, even if they can't spell.

A 100km dmz in Russia along the '91 border seems like a good idea - UN controlled ...

The russians only have to advance a bit more, then the city will be within regular artillery range = /oh-damn

The only reason Russia is attempting this offensive at Kharkiv (and possibly Sumy) is because they CANNOT advance more than 90km or so beyond their own borders. Their logistics start getting pummelled by Ukrainian strikes much further than this. They cannot get beyond what is essentially a days drive under combat conditions.

Proposed BZ, 80%...no longer 20%.

Wishful thinking

dont see why he is not using more of his hypersonic weapons.

Where are the Ukrainian tanks, aircraft, patriot missile defense, Ukraine troops. Ukraine is relying on NATO long range missles and drones. Ukraine soldiers are surrendering.

I think Ukraine was spread across thinly because of lack of soldiers so Russia moved in weak areas. Desperate to win something.

But that ignores a bear in the room, Russia can't afford to have its economy 75% geared for war for any length of time will simply run out of 💰 it's a question of resources, buy also will st this point who will blink first. Before they run out?

I don’t know what to believe- According to this channel Russia lost this war on day one yet Here we are retreating!

American channel very very reliable channel 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Jokers joking.

Dude!! You don't have any idea on Russian strategy.

Russia’s Achilles heal is that I doesn’t have an air power doctrine of any substance. Russia has only fought one modern high intensity conflict against a near peer rival, before Ukraine. That was WW11. And the allies had massively degraded the German Air Force before the Soviets went on the offensive. So the only other Russian high intensity conflict Russia has fought was largely a land war. So Russia will never attain air superiority over Ukraine. (Particularly with F16’s on the way). And without air power, armour will always be vulnerable. Russia will not be able to launch an effective offensive.

The lies will catch up to you. We all know Russia can produce a couple hundred tanks a month. Some newly manufactured the rest rebuilds of existing tanks. Ukraine is completely reliant on the west for armor. They received 31 abrams, 14 challengers and abou 80 leos 2. Many of these were destroyed in the last summer offensive. The leo 1s promised need complete rebuilds which wasn't done before handing some to Ukraine. That has delayed the delivery date for the majority of the leo 1s. Captured tanks make up the bulk of their forces now but that number is dwindling since Russia isn't using tanks in the numbers it once did at the beginning of the war. Tanks are now outdated on the Ukraine battlefield because of drones.

Europe should be doing twice as much as the US. This is a European war. Stop saying that the US is responsible for the situation that Ukraine finds itself in. Europe is sitting on 100 of billions of dollars in frozen Russian assets that it could use to fund Ukraine’s war effort and they refuse to use those assets for Ukraine.

Pure fantasy from the Times as usual.

What BS

I hear that there's lots of Chinese golf carts to go around. Maybe they can put large cardboard tubes on them. The orc crews can make the "pew pew" sounds, that is until the drones find them. Like they always do. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

This is the worst place for accurate information 😂

Russia has ran out of tanks? How come they are advancing and taking town after town?

Ah the hole to the North that Ukraine can't exploit. If you look at Russian deployment, there are just hectares of land that don't have a soul in them. I mean the Pensioners are gone, the old villages are dusty and empty and there are just these little country road that the Russian Liberation Militia could just take a drive and might just end up in Kursk or Voronezh before anyone noticed. Imagine trying to guard a 20,000 kilometer land border across 10-11 times zones? Russia does not have that. But like any invading army, the reality is you run out of gas and food and bullets pretty fast once the fun begins.

😂😂😂 Keep the deluded nonsense coming TR. Its comedy gold.

It would be nice if Ukraine could reach out and hit SU-34's at altitude 50 miles back before they deploy those glide bombs. Russia can still afford Jet Fuel and Glide Bomb Kits. But what it would have trouble replacing is the Jets and the crews to fly them. They use to move a Patriot battery around at night near Donbas trying to hit Russian aviation over the Sea of Azov and it worked for a couple of weeks. But loose one Patriot Battery and everyone's freaking out. They cost the equivalent of tens of Bradley IFV's or maybe a hundred of those M777 field cannon. The cost of supplying Patriot missiles to Ukraine is approximately $1.1 billion. This includes $400 million for the system itself and $690 million for the missiles1. The U.S. Army operates 15 Patriot battalions, Depending on the variant and contract, the M777 ranges in the 2-3 Million dollar price. Which is why I wanted Biden to be sending the M777 and the M101 Howitzers way back in 2021 but he was too busy packing up and leaving Afghanistan. Those cheaper and technically much more easy to operate and move around the battle field plus to arm would have meant that Ukraine would have had a very big artillery force by end of 2021 for the cost of ONE Patriot battery with missiles. I was also dreaming of the M142 mobile artillery with the longer range ATACMS being in Ukraine in 2021 too. Just that kind of reach and mobility would have been a great kind of layered artillery force that would have made Russia more vulnerable. But let's face it Biden is no Military General. He's a lawyer. I always say, you can't win wars fighting with Lawyers. Maybe that's it. Biden is not trying to win anything. He's just hoping Putin will stop, or the Europeans will be stronger. But except for the French, British, Poles and the Baltics and Romania too, much of Europe is just trying to adapt to the new business environment without cheap Russian gas.

How about some freaking MAPS? Come ON - We need MORE than just an audio lecture!

Maybe if sort out independent journalists, you'll get the truth.

🇺🇦👍🙂

Sooooo many bots. Russia must be getting desperate

Stalemate

Those shell covered tanks can't move their main gun.. can't shoot.. those turtle tanks are emergency troop carriers.. converted T62s.....

They all ready took the town and they have tonnes of tanks 😆

Doesn't have any tanks. Wins. Odd.

😂😂 this is comedy gold.

Waste of time … again !

We love you putin
