U Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed that Kyiv’s army is now larger than Moscow’s during a joint press conference with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Wednesday. He said that Ukraine’s military now has 880,000 soldiers, while Russia’s forces are comprised of 600,000 troops.
See, this is why I don’t trust ANY news coming out of this war until it’s over. Every reporting news agency has a propaganda based agenda, and some flat out lie.
And I have no idea where the truth lands. Maybe you’re right. Maybe he’s right. Who’s to say?
very head in the sand of you
Why would the war being over change that? If anything it would make it worse.
Because if the only question you’re asking is “who’s winning?”, it would be hard to lie or cover up the fact that you lost. After it’s over who won will be pretty clear.
“Both sides bad” vibes
No idea why you’re being downvoted. Propaganda exists on both sides. Everyone who thinks it doesn’t is deluding themselves.
If you’re not blindly loyal to the popular side, in this case Ukraine, downvotes will ensue.
Russia is on an Imperialistic land grab murdering people and destroying lives when they were never under any threat. Why the hell would you support them?

Russia single handedly decided to steal Ukrainian land and was under no threat.
You need to prove otherwise and I know you can’t.
Why is anyone making what I said about russia or ukraine? My comment was about media companies. I never said anything about supporting russia. I just said that russian media will report that russia is winning, and ukraine (and their allies) media will report that ukraine is winning.
Even though I do support ukraine, I never said anything about who I support. I just don’t trust the reporting of the war from either side. Still to this day people think carrots are good for your eyes.
There’s a youtube channel that shows up in my reccomended. Every week they have a new video that has titles like “The war is over for russia, ukraine gets huge advantage” and the other day was “North korea surrenders to ukraine, war end in sight.”
But this has been every week since about a week after the war started.
And I’m sure there’s some truth in their videos. The problem is, they take the truth, at a 3, and amplify it to an 11 at which point it’s no longer pure truth.
You can’t keep saying that every week ukraine did the thing that ends the war, and then be 3 years into saying that on a weekly basis.
And then I’ve seen how russia will claim ukraine started the war, and how they would never bomb schools and childrens hospitals. But that’s just a straight up lie, because they’ve done both those thingd, multiple times, and were the aggressors in the war.
I have no idea who’s winning because of both sides propaganda. So at this point, it’s more like you find out news 3 months after the fact, because it’s the story that still stands. Like right now, I’m finally sure that an invasion of russia mainland actually happened, and that was back in september. I’m just now realizing that was real.
