Heavy signal! Russia is starting to draw up a list!

There has been a significant development in the Russia-Ukraine situation! After multiple statements expressing dissatisfaction with Zelensky, on December 8 local time, Trump once again called out to Zelensky, claiming that losing means losing! Ukraine needs to accept reality! With Trump setting the tone for the Russia-Ukraine situation, several major European countries, despite their reluctance, also dare not openly confront the United States! Ukrainian President Zelensky's trip to Europe this time was met with a cold response from Europe! Although several European countries still claim to provide strong support to Ukraine, judging from the statements of the EU's 'trio' (UK, France, Germany) leaders, they too find themselves unable to resist the United States and must follow America in promoting a ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine conflict!

While criticizing Zelensky for 'losing', Trump also struck at Ukraine's soft underbelly, pointing out that Ukraine has not held a presidential election for a long time. This comes after the United States has already taken down Zelensky's key supporters and openly issued a final ultimatum to Zelensky. Facing pressure from the United States, on December 9, Ukrainian President Zelensky stated for the first time in a media interview that if the United States and Europe can ensure the safety of the elections, Ukraine is willing to hold elections within 60 to 90 days. Based on Zelensky's current approval rating, if Ukraine holds elections, he has no chance of re-election, meaning that Zelensky's departure from office has already entered the countdown!

With Trump as a divine assist and after more than three years of fierce fighting, Russia has gained absolute advantage on the battlefield, and its demands for a ceasefire with Europe and Ukraine have become increasingly tough. After firmly rejecting the ceasefire conditions set by Ukraine and displaying a willingness to go to war with Europe, Russia has started to draw up a list! On December 8 local time, the Russian Prosecutor General's Office threw out a heavy bombshell: a list of 41 individuals has been officially approved for prosecution, including former Ukrainian President Poroshenko, current Ukrainian Army Commander Serhiy Seryodko, current Defense Minister Umerov, current Prime Minister Shmyhal, and a close aide recently dismissed by Zelensky - Head of the Presidential Office Yermak, among others! As the Russia-Ukraine war is in full swing and Russia is making rapid advances on the front lines, Russia's judicial authorities suddenly listed over 40 high-ranking Ukrainian officials, including Ukrainian Army Commander Seryodko, as targets for prosecution for genocide. What signal does this send?

Clearly, this indicates that the Russia-Ukraine war has entered its final phase, and Russia is starting to draw up a list! Some may say that Russia is being too domineering; the war is won, so why go to such lengths as to prosecute their high-ranking officials? Let’s not forget! In 2023, when Ukraine gained an advantage on the battlefield, the ceasefire conditions proposed to Russia were even harsher than this! For example, they had to return to the 1991 Russia-Ukraine border, must arrest and prosecute Russian military officials, must provide Ukraine with massive war reparations, and only after Russian President Putin resigns could negotiations with Russia begin. Even more extreme was that Ukraine, believing it had guaranteed victory, legislated at the national level against negotiating with Russia.

It can be said that at that time, Ukraine was even more extreme, leaving no room for Russia! However, what Ukraine did not expect was that the United States, which had originally vowed to 'support until Ukraine defeats Russia', suddenly changed its tune after Trump took office, abandoning Ukraine. Coupled with NATO's consistent reluctance to engage directly in the conflict and increasingly inadequate support, this left Ukraine increasingly passive, and the Russia-Ukraine situation began to reverse! Although Ukraine keeps frontline casualty data highly confidential, according to Western media reports, after three years of brutal tug-of-war in the Russia-Ukraine war, Ukrainian soldier casualties have reached a million, and frontline troops are extremely depleted, losing more than they gain. Moreover, with a sharp reduction in U.S. and NATO military aid to Ukraine, this has been a further blow to frontline soldiers who were already struggling to hold on; territories that had been reclaimed from Russia have once again been taken back by Russia.

In contrast, Russia has been steady and secure, using Kursk and Red Army City as bases, repeatedly launching battles to encircle and attack, significantly depleting Ukraine's living forces. At the same time, Russia's domestic military industry has ramped up production, with a steady supply of weapons and ammunition; in addition, several staunch allies are continuously supplying weapons and ammunition, allowing Russia to gradually stabilize its footing after being passive in 2023 and ultimately seize the initiative on the battlefield. Looking back at the Russia-Ukraine war, we can be thankful that Russia held out and eventually achieved battlefield initiative; otherwise, Ukraine would have left no way out for Russia!

Therefore, it is not surprising that Russia, currently holding the battlefield advantage and confident of victory, has issued prosecution and wanted notices for more than 40 high-ranking Ukrainian officials in legal form! This indicates a trend to take down the original anti-Russian group of Ukrainian politicians all at once. However, many people are puzzled as to why Zelensky is not on the wanted list? For Big Mouth's judgment, first of all, Ukrainian President Zelensky has absolutely no chance of being re-elected as President of Ukraine this time; Russia has left an escape route for Zelensky to prevent him from continuing to fight to the end and making even crazier decisions! Wanting 40+ high-ranking officials, yet sparing Zelensky, also makes those Ukrainian officials on the wanted list wonder: Could it be that Zelensky sold them out?

Even more unexpectedly for Ukraine, Russian President Putin publicly stated that after the end of the Russia-Ukraine war, all liberated settlements will be rebuilt. This is essentially a reassurance for the people in the war zones! To be honest, Russia's actions do feel a bit 'murderous and heartless', which also indicates that this nearly four-year-long Russia-Ukraine war is approaching its grand conclusion!
