Keypoints:
* “(Russia) can’t attack Ukraine and defend Russia at the same time, it has had to make a choice,” Volker said.
* “It’s going to have to move forces from Ukraine to defend Russia. That movement is something we should be taking advantage of with long-range systems to hit them while they move,” he added.
* The incursion further shows that “Russia does not have the ability to escalate,” Volker said.
* Separately, Ukrainian lawmaker Olena Khomenko said that the Kursk incursion “proves that there are no real risks of Russian escalation, and there are no Russian red lines.”
I like the second point.
Do you think its ridiculous that Ukraine has to fight with one arm tied behind its back? Contact the White House and let them know.

Not really. Its un defended territory Ukraine justifiably took advantage of showing there are no supposed red lines.
Beyond that there isn’t too much to take away from IMHO.
The Kursk incursion is something that can only be done once because it exploits a correctable flaw in Russia’s defensive line. One supposes therefore that they refrained from launching it until they were sure that Russia had depleted their reserves to the point of not having effective forces available. Russia has shown an aggressive willingness to overcommit and Ukraine is clearly exploiting that fact. Worst case (for Russia 😁) is that they don’t have the mines and artillery needed to establish a solid defensive line and Ukraine just keeps grinding up their conscripts piecemeal and taking more Russian land.
Give them long range weapons and remove the limitations and you’ll see how stretched they really are! Fuck. Russia has more area and infrastructure to defend. Do the math.
So now would be a great time to help Ukraine maximize it’s capabilities, right?
