The real benefit of Ukraine going into Russia is that the EU countries see that they can win with their support. This should help keep a strong defense posture once the current war is over.
Not exactly winning, and EU countries probably do not have enough war materials and equipment to propel Ukraine to victory. If however, Ukraine can keep up or repeat this type of maneuver warfare, they could win with additional US support.
There is no "real" benefit. There is a LARGE number of MAJOR benefits, and which one eventually turns out to have been the most impoirtant depends on the further course of the war. (They didn't just "go into Russia", but did so at a very specific point, which provided some more subtle but still powerful advantages. Such as the ability to have Putin cut off the gas supply to his allies in EU/NATO just as winter comes, by trashing the metering station at Sudzha in an attempt to "liberate" it.)

Think of this: in the year 2000 a young Russian girl gave birth to her first child, one of the first of the millennium, born to an unwritten but hopeful future for Russia with a young democracy sprouting its wings. That same year Putin became president. Fast forward 24 years and that Russian woman has lost her baby fighting in Putin's war. As have so many others. Her child died as did democracy and hope for Russia. Putin has been a murderer most of his life. He's now created a generation of murderers and grieving mothers and fathers. Russia deserves better than a corrupt KGB dictator.
@Eidelmania The bases allow us to help them mobilize faster. We’re the only ones that can move the manpower needed anywhere across Europe. Logistics and supply would be our main roles. Trump for all his flaws was right for wanting NATO nations to fully adhere to the defense spending policy. Most were complacent. Now, Ukraine “loses”, I fully expect them to take their own defense more serious but I also expect Russia to no longer be a threat militarily. Ukraine has already put a huge dent in their capabilities. Kyiv isn’t even a realistic option anymore. Easter and southern Ukraine, even if they manage to keep them, can they actually rebuild them?
@@darrylgrimaldi5101 It seems you are unaware about how much the EU actually has been spending on this war. Yes, the US's contributions are not to be underestimated BUT the EU actually has spent more. However when numbers are released then yes, the US is the biggest contributor because they are published by country BUT the US is one country, the EU are several. Also where US support is mainly military aid, the EU provides a lot more humanitarian and direct financial aid. In the end though, it is not about who spends the most. It is about giving Ukraine what it needs, when it needs it.
Ukrainian Warriors and President Zelensky, you amaze the World with your Courage, Strength and Determination... All it takes for Evil to win is for Good to do nothing. We can achieve anything when we all work together... God Bless Ukraine from the UK
stop daydreaming man. 30% of Ukraine is taken by russians. According to NATO officials, 700,000 Ukrainian men are dead. They are seeing the number of graveyards being dug every month. Ignore the western mainstream propaganda bs and look at the facts on the ground. Ukraine is militarily finished. Zelensky and his gang are forcing the couple hundred thousand Ukrainian young men that are left into the meat grinder for a lost cause. All this could have been avoided had the United States and NATO never interfered

A video with Ben Hodges is per definition a hit. Add James and you have a stellar concept! 👍😊 I admire Ben for his patience in carefully bridging the gap between ill informed, perhaps emotional politicians and the actual truth as he sees it. I sincerely doubt that he has always displayed this balanced caution and patience when he was younger and still in his military job. But I might be wrong 👍😊 Either way, I totally respect the display of commitment and experience!!
I wish someone would ask Ben Hodges how he explains people like Jeffrey Sachs and John Mearsheimer who never have anything positive to say about Ukraine's fighting efforts. Based on their arguments Britain had no hope of survival in 1939-1940, because Germany had seemingly overwhelming military power. Nor would they, apparently, have believed the American colonies could have defeated Great Britain, the world's greatest power in 1777.
The French won the war for us in the American Revolution, they were supplying 85% of our gunpowder, the playwright Beaumarchaise secured arms for us secretly, the French fleet arrived and allowed the Americans to defeat Cornwallis at Yorktown, etc.
@mike-h5h8p All belligerents in a war seek allies to draw support from. Its part of war. Certainly both sides did during the American revolution. The UK had a whole worldwide empire to draw resouces from. The US was more effective at that aspect of war than the UK was, and that advantage was decisive.
Really you are foolish there is no evidence here just wishful thinking. But as you support Cenk for US President via TYT not surprising foolish viewpoint.
The Ukrainian army faces a major problem: recruits receive little training and many of them refuse to shoot or flee at the slightest resistance. This has dramatic consequences at the front. Source: the American news agency Associated Press.
I really don’t think there is any specific reason for this “invasion” other than to make Putin and the Russian military look foolish. But Ukraine certainly achieved the objective. I wonder if this will do anything to jump start peace talks.
The timing of this incursion couldn’t have never been better…Not only did Russia never saw it coming but it’s when Russian forces are at an all time low…Ukraine really dug in with the all the preparations to making this go more smoothly then ever predicted…
This also explains the Russian push in the south-east, how it managed to steadily gain ground all summer. Some units were staging for the Kursk incursion and couldn't defend. What a gamble, right before the autumn muds.
Are u really so naive? Ukraine is losing its best land in Donbass, the Russian haven’t moved reserves from donbass because they crashing well fortified Ukrainian defense lines, It’s over for Ukraine
And Ukraine did not even use its new brigades. They have been assigned to another month of training, and should Putin achieve a breakthrough in Donbass (instead of the slow bleeding grind that has been going on for many months now), this cannot be a major breakthrough and the new Ukrainian units are available to plug it. It's a gamble for Ukraine but the risk is manageable with their resources.
Slava Ukraini! Ben Hodges always is a win. But: What is also of interest, is, that Oblasts Kursk and Belgorod are the agrocultural hubs of Russia. And in Kursk alone, 50% of the steel in Russia is processed. I wonder, why nobody mentioned this, so far. It could be also one of the reasons, why Ukraine went in there.
Thank you for your honest analysis that the West has not helped Ukraine to win. The West has given Ukraine just enough to stay in the fight...enough to prolong the fight. Many of us were asking this question two years ago, and it is still relevant today: how many more Ukrainians, military and civilian, have to die and/or be displaced and/or endure crippling hardship before we help them to win this war? It seems the only people helped by prolonged conflicts are the ones involved in the manufacture or trafficking of weapons and ammunition.
Yes the 6+ months the maggats held the congress hostage. Putin got ahead. Ukraine was doing so well and couldn’t forge ahead because of the Putin supporting maggots.
@@Nah-pz9ml I think you misconstrued the West to mean exclusively the USA. It is not disrespectful for people in need to ask for what they need. Stringing someone along isn't exactly what I call helping. The West doesn't want Putin to win, but the West doesn't want him to lose, either. Craziness. And, of course it's our job. If good guys don't stand up to bad guys, then who will?
We shall see by the end of the month how Ukraine fares in the Kursk region. Meanwhile US airlines have been cancelling flights to Asia and India (2 most populous regions in the world), Intel laid off 15,000 workers, US over $36Trillion in debt, US Navy can't safeguard the Red Sea, US Army has not won a war since WWII though Russia did most of the heavy lifting there. So not exactly a bed of roses in America is it Gen Hodges?
Russia is more likely to worry if they go all out against Ukraine, it could end terribly for Ukraine, they still have terrible weapons for which Ukraine has no chance to defend itself. That is why they will never negotiate, also what Ukraine is trying in Kursk where they know that this is the end of the Ukrainian soldiers who are there
The USA and its allies could not defeat Taliban in 20 years. In Afghanistan war, the Afghanistan government army which backed by the USA lost 70,000 soldiers, Taliban lost 50,000 soldiers.
Time for the politicians to show leadership and move to the frontline as soldiers to support their troops and take a first hand view of the insanity they have created.

Donetsk to Toretsk is 73km. Russia hasn't finished this journey yet, and it's been over 10 years now. Ukraine then makes 20km towards Kursk in a week. You're right, we have to be realistic.
Ukraine by will, courage, love of their country, freedom, and democary can end Putin's reign sooner than later. Continue pushing forward Ukraine military and return to Putin his unprovoked, immoral, illegal war at his doorstep in Mascow! Nations around the globe supports Ukraine all the way to secure its freedom, democracy, and sovereignty. Congartulations, Good job and God Speed to Ukrainian military!
Ben, the man who waxed lyrical last summer, before and during one of the greatest defeats in military history is back !! Now he is really dredging the bottom of the barrel to evoke yet more garbage. The words are coming out more slowly now - for a smooth-talking unscrupulous blaggard that is something.
Great analysis but disagree with the US needing to be involved. This is much more important to Poland and Germany. At the most we should contribute less than them.
They are not actually. they have a High Income Economy they are now in a War economy state. they can put as much money in war as they want and still have a stable economy.
As well as taking out airfields in Russia they are targeting supply hubs and bridges. This can seriously restrict the Russians' ability to resupply the Donbas.
The real benefit of Ukraine going into Russia is that the EU countries see that they can win with their support. This should help keep a strong defense posture once the current war is over.
Not exactly winning, and EU countries probably do not have enough war materials and equipment to propel Ukraine to victory. If however, Ukraine can keep up or repeat this type of maneuver warfare, they could win with additional US support.
