      Main points:

      President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that the ratio of irreversible losses among Ukrainians and Russians on the battlefield is now 1 to 6.

      **Source:** Zelenskyy in an interview with [The Philadelphia Inquirer](https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/zelensky-ukraine-war-interview-trudy-rubin-20240630.html)’s Trudy Rubin

      **Quote:** “Indeed, they (the Russians – ed.) have a much larger population, and we take care about our soldiers more [than they do]. Indeed, we will not have a larger population than Russia. However, for every six Russians, one Ukrainian dies today [on the battlefield].

      [Previously] we had figures approximately four times (1 to 4 – ed.), and now on the Kharkiv and Pokrovsk fronts, the numbers are 1 to 6.

      No, I am not implying that we must fight till the end and that we have enough people. I just wanted to let you know that all these discussions about a vast number of people, millions of Russians… Yes, they are correct, but the war is technological, and whoever owns more technologies will prevail.”

      Even if only half is true, that’s good enough. Keep it up!

      Let’s get that ratio up to 10:1 then maybe Poutine will reconsider his horrible mistake.

    4. This is quite bad and barely sustainable, especially if he is talking death and not casualties.

    5. Another difference is that Russia is still in the denial stage, having spent their prisoners and whoever they could drag off the streets without it being too noticeable. The most conscripted place, Dagestan, already had an armed uprising. And the armed prison gang Wagner had an even more serious uprising. So it remains to see how much of this 140 million population Russia can really use.

      This is a heavy price in blood Ukraine is paying instead of the rest of us in Europe. Every russian that dies or is crippled in there is one less the russia can throw at the rest of us down the line.

      I sincerely hope that we will not forget the sacrifices of the Ukrainian people and that they will get all the equipment they need, preferably sooner than later.

      since around 1/3 of those daily ruzzian casualties are KIA that makes it 180k KIA ruzzians and 30k Ukrainians :/

      I like that a lot provided the attrition rate uses up all the Russian personnel before it uses up all the Ukrainian personnel. So accepting the ratio at face value the other side of the coin is existing reserves. Do we have numbers on that?

      That’s still too many Ukrainians. Not enough russians though.

      Get NATO airpower involved directly and it will be 1 to 12 or even 1 to 18. Maybe Ukraine’s F-16 fleet can do that by this time next year…. we’re running out of time though, so we’re between a rock and a hard place.

      One, is one Ukrainian too many.
      They didn’t start this so shouldn’t loose a single soul. Russias obliteration cannot come soon enough.
      I look forward to the day they are confined to the history books.

      That is such a terrible lie that this claim seems straight up seems cynical for me

    13. urano123 on

      When Ukraine strikes back like it did last summer…if it does…we’ll see what that ratio looks like.

      Who would have thought Putin would be such a fucking idiot.
