A military analyst explains why Russia has not used its full military force to invade Ukraine as the war continues for a second week, displacing more than one million people. #UkraineWar
Analyst: Russia yet to bring full military force to Ukraine

Yes that’s the huge fear because people in the west have not realised or noticed that the equipment or hardware Russia has chosen has mainly been old soviet vehicles. It has not used its high tech modern equipment or highest trained troops. It has not utilised its Air Force to the full nor its navy and this is good in some ways but kind of scary in others as they could opt too use their best military equipment if they choose.
I would only partially agree. Even if the invasion goes sideways, Russia can’t afford to throw everything in. On the bigger picture, Ukraine is just one theater. Putin still has to hold back a core force ready to defend Russian territory against NATO and, perhaps more realistically, against coup attempts from within.
Exactly!! Putin is’nt a fool like the West think of him,,He cant put all his cards on the table..
Well as mentioned before Putin can’t throw in all of his troops. such a gigantic country requires a lot of effort to keep together and manage, especially with rising unrest and a crumbling economy. So no I actually do not believe that russia will use it’s most precise and best trained troops since those might be needed in case the unrest turns violent. Having those troops around the capital also serves as intimidation of course.
@Simon and if those best troop actually got F up by poor supply line and got decimated then there will be no card left for him except Nuke. Also those high tech equipment require part from Europe so it won’t be easy to repair or replace once attrition lost set in as well.
So far Ukraine has been fighting conscripts only. While Zelensky and western media continue to lie about their little victory propaganda bullshit putin has been grabbing vital key infrastructure of Ukraine. Over 70,000 soldiers/dishwashers killed in the last 9 days of fighting. Truth,Ukraine is losing huge. Truth,Zelensky is in Poland! Chechen terrorist soldiers outside of kiev. Fact,it doesn’t matter how many conscripts Ukraine kills or armor they destroy….Russia can take the hits and replenish the ranks and armor,Ukraine can not! The hour glass is running out of time for Ukraine and their mislead soldiers/dishwashers. When the real Russian army and the brutal merciless Chechens show up its absolutely over for Ukraine.
Turkey has Positive Benefits w/ NEW Natural Gasoline and uncovered oil, in The Black Sea, joined w/ the Aegan Sea. Putin wants Ukraine so that he can have all the oil and gas reserves and not share it w/ the Courty of Turkey. Let’s NOT be Turkey 🦃 and STOP putin
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has deprived Westerners of sleep, but when militant state Israel terrorist state Israel attacks innocent Palestinians, Westerners sleep with oil on their noses.
Classical Russian Tactics, like in ww2, first wave is cannon folder, 2nd wave take the weapons of the one that died on the field, 3rd wave is for ensure none leave or run by executing them. Chineses and N korean used this tact aswell in the past, this way they could ensure none of them will leave the battlefield w/o die or fight. thats the way their regime cares about them.
Putin is playing a chess game and has been planning this for a very long time. And if you can see clearly he’s just using the old USSR infantry and and not even committing his elite soldiers into the fight just yet.
Remember the Soviets during WWII?
The ones they put on the frontlines were not ethnic Russians,many of them retreated and got shot by their own officers. This time they sent the conscripts first, and many of them surrendered. The main batallions will only sweep the remaining mess.
Russia uses ancient world war weapon, cheer
Russia uses Cold War weapon, begin to complain
Russia uses advance future weapon, rage-quit
The reason they haven’t used their full force is that they don’t have the logistical infrastructure to do it. They can’t even make this tentative little force work properly, with fuel shortages and starving soldiers. What do you think will happen when they send a huge armada of tanks and squadrons of planes? Everything will fall apart. Game over for Russia.
Russia is almost using it as a training session
Polish pilots are yet to bring force to the Russian Black Sea fleet in international airspace. Do it now.
Once the civilians are out of the way it will be toast .
Agreed. Putin sending young n inexperienced soldiers in to die first.
they’re just waiting to use them on the NATO in case they decided to join. right now they’ll just use their conscripts and try to make the enemy think they’re weak
What i see is Russia is moving slowly so to see what kind of resistance is forming there. So they would make good assualt later. The west is trying to show all its cards by supplying weapons and men in Ukarine to fight Russia. Final move of Russia would be surely a big blow for Ukarine and west. No matter what Russia has upperhand in this conflict.
Typical pushing the faults narrative saying Russian going in to kill civilians. Lies and more lies.
Putin is holding his tactics & reserves close to his chest, just incase if any NATO member acts smart or brave ‼️⁉️
Further he’s showing the world USA/ NATO are not to be trusted under any condition ‼️
He said right 👍 when Russia will unleash full scal war game will over within couple of days 😎
This man is delusional…and clearly not able to see the facts on the ground. The west is blind and the cutting off of information streams – means you’re doing guess work.
Hey, Al Jazeera expert, did you know that elite 1st guards tank army was grinded to dust in Ukraine ENTIRELY?
Don’t you mean Ukraine is being grinder to dust because your stupid president wont surrender?
Russian army never go back go forward and get victory ✌ you are right way…we are with you
Because ukrain was part of Russian not NATO or American…why ukrain want to join NATO?
For Destroying Russia 🇷🇺. It is impossible !!!
First time I am listening to a report which is not biased. Most western media talk like ” Ukrain army almost destroyed whole Russian military in 7 days”. Western media is lie machines, I find very limited sources of news which can be trusted. Especially since the Google ban anybody talking the truth.
“Especially since the Google ban anybody talking the truth.”
Which means your comment is a lie, because it’s visible? 🤔
@smalaelefanten YouTube usually doesn’t sensor comments, may be due to the scale limitations, but they do remove the video content if it is against the interest of US corporations. I couldn’t find one report in YouTube, mentioning what is the loss in Ukraine side, that is how many tanks, Aircrafts of Ukraine lost. But all reports are emphasising on the loss only at Russian side. Even during COVID pandemic time, I noticed this trend in YouTube, that only those videos favouring Big pharma was available to the mass.
@smalaelefanten Could you please share me a single video explaining what is the loss in Ukraine side, that is how many tanks, Aircrafts and other inventory of Ukraine lost in the war. I cound’t find a single such news link on Google side, and not even a single video on YouTube.
Most stupid thing the Russians are doing it fight with tanks with no infantry groudn teams or air support at the same time , If Russia didn’t have Nuclear Weapons America be involved right now and the war be over in 24 hours
nice elucidate
Long live Russia.
Russians expecting the worst,maybe NATO could join the party and then they go full throttle!! It’s Putin he is in power for 20 years he knows how things work!!
I pray Russia stays on minimal force while I hope for an immediate halt of the battle through diplomatic resolution between Russia and Ukraine, no thrid party involved.
Dear fellow Russians even I am against war but the way the west treats you and the world they are going to suffer. If not today then tomorrow. More civilians have been killed by US UK France Israel NATO than any other country or civilization. I see your leader doing a clean job.
Off course, if Russia wants they can conquer all Europe
After taking out the Ukraine airforce in six hours, Russia could have conquered Ukraine within 48 hours but it has shown restraint and prevented heavy civilian casualties.
NATO, you are also the agitators of this war, USSR withdrew it’s missiles from Cuba though Cuba is an independent country but USA warned of a dangerous threat to himself by its proximity .please Zelensky enough is enough negotiate for peaceful settlement for the sake of your own countrymen,children, women and the military being killed.i beg you I’m also a Christian like you
they lost momentum the first few days to dominate the air-space, and did not deploy vacuum bomb earlier for a longer time at all fronts.
Russian contractors and conscripts used in Ukraine, not standing army.
Ukraine should negotiate. Russian “hordes” from the east, not yet deployed.
Maybe they kept their best equipment to protect in case of immediate NATO involvement?
At least they are not carpet bombing them like Nato did in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria.
They are afraid to use all the aircraft power for some reason they are no stupid ukrania has means to shoot down does planes and Russia know that . The problem is the Russian opinion went they see image of destroyed planes the public opinion will be bad for putin . And if they use the same tactics they use in Syria the world will be to small for putin and cronies
Analyst become bais at the end… It’s simply to force Ukraine into submission that’s all … If it was full Russian airpower and elite units then it would be disaster for Ukraine
They just giving some time for the civilians to flee. but their clown president force men to take arms. and when they died, they said civilians casualties.
Putin saves nasty equipment (hypersonic missiles, bio weapons, robots,nukes,black hand,s500,poseidon torpedo, new tanks armata, setalite that can destroy other setalites) for NATO and this is all that is publicly known.
His cam mounted with magnifying glass
30 countries in one block, Russia is alone and they can not do sh.. againts Russia. Mighty bear is aweaken.
I said this in a comment like two weeks ago. Putin strategy is crazy brilliant
How much meat Putin is ready pour into the grinder?
It is probably because the Russian military hardware is of poor build quality and thoroughly unreliable. Russia’s navy is particularly dire.
See!!….putin is successful to make you think that….
Some fool somewhere think Ukraine is winning.
Carpet bombing is only for Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Somalia……I think I see a pattern here 🤔🤔
What a load of BS.
Ukraine is 4x the size of England and have rebel militia that have been fighting for years not to mention advanced weaponry from NATO. Trying to downplay the catastrophic war tactics of the Kremlin by saying they are not using their full military force is the most idiotic statement I’ve ever heard.
Russia, Belarus and Chechnya all deployed their special forces alongside ‘the mighty Spetnaz’ and still after 12 days have not completed key objectives lol. Russia spend over $61 billion on military equipment.. 40% of it is getting stuck in ditches and blown to pieces in rural areas of Ukraine right now. 😂😂😂
Russians are not trying to take over the country can we stop pretending we know their strategy especially jurnos have no idea….russia is doing a seige do u know the difference between a seige and an invasion is?
RESULT to the greediness of water, think how important is water for CRIMEA.
Yet Western media gloats Russia has “bogged down” in Ukraine. They’ve only invaded with 30% of their forces amassed on Ukraine’s borders and Zelensky’s already whimpering and whining to the world. 😂😂🤣🤣
finally a mentally sane person out there…
Globolists and their puppets usa and England are finished soon…..the world is leaving their lies china , russia , india and many around the world, which is becoming majority is uniting …nato all finished …
NATO AND THEIR GLOBOLIST MASTERS ARE THE PROBLEM AND RUSSIA WILL FREE THE WORLD LONG LIVE RUSSIA AND MR PUTIN 🇷🇺☦☪️☝️
Lol zelensky got paid by the usa and ripped off the Ukranian people he’s a puppet of USA and Jewish not even Ukrainian, now he owes them everything well the people…Ukrainians got suckerd big …
The usa is Hollywood.
USA has now over 5 million homeless people and rising .
100 million are in poverty and rising .
They have the highest rate of alcoholics , drug addicts, suicides, crime rate out of control. States are In decline , millions losing their jobs fast , more people are moving out than in . States want to separate that includes California, Texas and other states . They are crumbling . there is only a small % that are doing well ..the rest collapsing. Only people moving to the Us are majority Mexicans ,which they are going to their lands and becoming majority in all their states …so adios amigos.
USA caused this war for money, just like in Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Iraq, Serbia, former Yugoslavia… and now Ukraine, unity Is here, usa and NATO are the problem.. ☦☪️☝️
russia has China, india , brazil ,mexico , argentina , cuba , let’s say all of south – Latin America, the middle east , almost all.of africa , usa and NATO lies and causing wars is over soon , all nato did was wipeout woman , children ,unarmed , using chemical weapons against , iraq ,syria ,Libya , former Yugoslavia , their days are up worldwide , nato now got each other and maybe now finland and Sweden lol as their powerhouse , do you see their pattern lol
If Russia was like NATO they would have destroyed all of Ukraine In 1 hour…
This is 10 procent you idiot another weight Nato
Bro what a stupid news…
so this is the right time for Japan to take back all of their islands back from russia…
Putin basically sent in his B team
Superpower country like US,Eng,Rrc,etc
Who is this guy
Dude the Russian are rolling vehicles on knock off Michelin tyres made in China. Many Russian vehicles including aircraft and tanks have not moved in years. They’re army is a junkyard. Pictures just today of rusty munitions being shipped to the front.
Simple … save the best for last …
It’s because they will get smashed, he has a 3rd rate army
Like I was explaining to someone, 100k russian troops, probably reservists fighting only God knows how many Ukrainians, maybe a million and have managed to encircle kiev and cut ukraine into 2. Ukraine is in a full fledge gear and the Russians are doing first. The Russians can double the numbers, triple it or even quadrupole it.
The stalled convoy has virtually ripped apart irpin and is slowly edging close to kiev.
They are not from the main Russian army, do you know whose actually fighting?Did politicians from your country recognize the regions that broke away from Ukraine to declare it’s own independent republics?
I baffled how “experts” dont understand Russia strategy… must be the same experts that ruined our lives last 2 years
The only choice the West has is to mark all aircraft as Ukrainian and claim all pilots are Ukrainian. Although this will be a miracle it could be claimed that these fighters are operating from bases unknown. IF THE GENERAL POPULATION CAN BELIEVE THAT THIS “CLIMATE CHANGE” IS CAUSED BY POLLUTION??? THEN THEY SHALL BELIEVE ANY BULLSHIT.
Rusia is an innocent friend and against expansion of nato while usa is double face and always use coalation usa canot fight alone they are always behind the curtain such ww1 and ww2 remember pearl hourbor and vietnam iraq somalia and now usa cheated ukraniain peesident and put fire his country and then said eu accept asylum seekers why usa accept ukranian refugee and give ful suport instead of rejecting because usa knows the reality and not ready to face reality directly
Russia just bring the big toys out please.
But they already loss a lot tank , aircraft..
Reality their modern fighter are in small numbers than the US
Where do you get these expert? British general and McMaster think Ukrainians will win. Why is analysis by an Al Jazeera expert so different from well known experts?
If Russia used its full force modern military equipment from day one in 10 days whole Ukraine would not exist . To be fair they using old equipment and fresh recruits so that’s why u seen this many soldiers killed etc… u think Putin would send best first? This just like a warning war . U haven’t even seen the war yet . Hopefully this can resolve soon because it’s effected everyone
Putin is a nice guy, so Putin is being nice to Ukranian military. Is that it? What about dead Russian soldiers and bombing old Ukranian grandmas?
Putin, be nice to your own soldiers and poor old grandmas!
Russia is acting like a meat tenderizer….. Soften it up and then toss it on the grill….lol!🇷🇺✊
Lead Russia Analyst. 😂🤣😂🤣
You can hear the western media mouthpiece sympathisers of Ukraine scream on the top of their lungs for this analyst to not say anything of those kinds and instead go along with the dominant narrative of Russia being rattled, and Ukraine is winning everywhere. We all stand with Russia though they have silenced all the voices of those of us who sympathise with Russia. Go all the way and get the victory oh Russia
Russia has right to be safe
Russia discarding old stock
The show has just started, Putin has repeatedly voiced that the military should not fight so that he returns home. Putin only wants to overthrow the western regime, but it seems that the Ukrainian people choose to die with their clowns.
Need to iniiy7
❤️❤️❤️❤️🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺💪💪❤️❤️❤️
They’ve not sent the Chechens in either
Russia just used 5% of its force
They are pretending to be unexperienced
And this is supposedly the Army who will take over Europe and elsewhere if we don’t stop them in Ukraine (where they are bogged down)….yeah right…
True👍😁🇷🇺😄😅
mix of right and wrong information…
So the elite military forces don’t have the logistic problem?
Thanks for being fare
The war in Europe (Ukraine) is an unacceptable drama.
But in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Mali, in Syria, in Libya it is necessary, essential at the limit normal
We all know that Ukraine has to fall someday and that the Russians aren’t using their absolute military might. We keep encouraging Ukraine because it gives them moral support.
