the USA blames china for russia's success...The ?reconstitution? of Moscow's forces during the Ukraine conflict has surprised Washington, Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell has said Washington is highly concerned about the rapid "reconstitution" of the Russian military and partly attributes this to Moscow's "formidable" ties with China, US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell has said. Discussing the Ukraine conflict in an interview on Wednesday hosted by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a Washington-based think tank, Campbell stated that "what we've seen over the course of the last two years is a reconstitution of the Russian military with a rapidity and a determination that, frankly, surprises us." He further admitted that this "has been a topic of real anxiety" for the West. Campbell was asked whether the US has been too cautious in providing military capabilities to Kiev, but responded by pointing out that Washington is "by far and away the largest provider of assistance to Ukraine" and that most aid was delivered "on a timely basis." The diplomat attributed the ramping-up of military production in Russia to foreign help, and particularly to cooperation with China. The State Department has underestimated how close the partnership between the two countries has become, similarly to how previous generations of American diplomats underestimated the depth of the Sino-Soviet split, Campbell claimed. The relationship between Beijing and Moscow is "probably the most formidable and important bilateral engagement globally today that we have to take note of and respond to," he argued. There is recognition in the West that resolving the Ukraine conflict will require diplomatic engagement with Russia "in the not too distant future," Campbell stated, while stressing that Washington has certain red lines. "The stakes for us are high, we cannot afford to accept outcomes that are suboptimal to the extent that either Russia or China would come away from this thinking that this kind of experience should be replicated elsewhere," the deputy secretary said. Moscow's stated goals in the conflict include making Ukraine a neutral nation with caps on its military strength, the reversal of discriminatory policies against ethnic Russians by Kiev, and the removal of radical Ukrainian nationalists from positions of authority. Russia has also demanded that Kiev relinquish its claim of sovereignty to five formerly-Ukrainian regions. Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky traveled to the US last month to present his 'victory plan', of which US officials are reportedly skeptical. Kiev is seeking to defeat Russia militarily with Western help. (RT.com) https://www.malaysiasun.com/news/274665222/west-anxious-about-russian-military-senior-us-diplomat

ugledar....
Russia's Vostok Battlegroup have taken control of the city of Ugledar in the Donetsk People's Republic, the Russian Defense Ministry reported on Thursday.
"Ugledar was the south-eastern flank of the defensive grouping of enemy troops in the Donetsk region. It was the so-called first line of defense," military expert and retired colonel Anatoliy Matviychuk told Sputnik.
Russian forces had attempted to liberate Ugledar since the fall of 2022. Matviychuk pointed out that the Ukrainian army had fortified Ugledar since 2014 with concrete defenses and permanent firing positions. The city is also located on high ground and has a complex layout including industrial facilities, mines and underground communications.

How Did Russia Liberate Ugledar?
• The Russian armed forces started by destroying nearby Ukrainian strongholds one by one, Matviychuk explained.
• Then Russian troops began to advance from the eastern and western flanks towards the city.
• Ugledar was taken in "pincers" and encircled, while Russian special forces conducted sabotage operations in the enemy's rear. As a result of those actions, Ugledar was eventually liberated.
What is Ugledar's Strategic Significance?
"Ugledar is a logistics center," the pundit said. "Ten to twelve kilometers from Ugledar there is a powerful railway junction, which connects Crimea, Kherson with each other and between industrial centers.”
The city “crowned a flank that was sufficiently well fortified and allowed for rotational movements of enemy troops along the entire defensive zone."
What's Next?
Having taken Ugledar, Russian troops could now move towards Kramatorsk to annihilate the southern group of Ukrainian military forces and complete the DPR's liberation, the former colonel said.
"We are moving to the final stage of the conflict, because the fall of all these operational lines,” Matviychuk said, which “should lead to the understanding of the senselessness of war and subsequent capitulation."

"Our military is already in Ugledar, the Russian flag is installed on the building of the local administration," Yan Gagin, adviser to the head of the DPR, said, adding that Ukrainian scattered units… pic.twitter.com/CRkg6PG1Td
