The period of war, in which we entered the winter, is a new etappé, diédeine essential and general cover-up both in material terms and in the strategic situation of the German Empire.DietThe results of the this year's operations have proved flawlessly that the German-speaking world is not able to cope with this, and that it is unable to avoid the ring that encloses it to break through the two fronts of war and to dissipate it with the forces that were lost after a two-year attempt to exclude the SsSRi. It is natural that the declining potential of the German Wehrmacht will result in a progressive transition to the strategic defensive, whose distinctive characteristics were already visible this year on the European West and on a large part of the Eastern Front. On the other hand, the Anglo-American offensive possibilities are increasing and their realization is approaching rapidly. I don't want to and can't list all the variants, in what way, under what circumstances and at what speed the war events will take place, which in their entirety mean an unstoppable shift of strategic and material superpower in favour of the Allies, in our favour.
