Russian President Vladimir Putin has given his Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu until October to stop the Ukrainian counteroffensive, the Institute for the Study of War reports, citing an insider source.

Last time Putin mentioned the Ukrainian counter offensive was when he stated that it was not existant.
Now he wants his doggo to stop it.

What will be the next step?
Maybe: "Organize me a fast car with enough gasoline to reach North Korea"

Yeah, we'll see how that goes! I imagine someone else will soon fall out of a window.

The funniest part is that Putin’s probably trying to time it so that the rainy season, which generally slows operations down (as it did last year, and in both world wars), so I read it as him trying to give an order that’s effectively a self-fulfilling prophecy. If the weather slows things down like it usually does, everything is going to plan and “orders are being followed”.

Suffice to say I hope that the rainy season in Ukraine this autumn is a light one.

Putin needs to start reading lemmygrad. One of the tankies there mentioned the counter offensive hit a brick wall.

Wait? All this time and no one told the Russian soldiers yet that they are supposed to stop their enemies offensive?

But good, that they finally managed to do that. This will totally solve their problems, now that they know their orders... 🤡

LOL, delusional.

Shoigu would have a better chance of success capturing Moscow.

Why didn't he just order to win the whole war? Would've been just as effective
