Reuters: Russia's 'General Armageddon' under pressure to deliver on battlefield after retreat
Russia's leading war hawks rallied behind the humiliating decision for Moscow's forces to retreat from the Ukrainian city of Kherson this month, but the commander who argued in favour of the move is now under growing pressure to prove it was worth it.
Sergei Surovikin, nicknamed "General Armageddon" by the Russian media for his reputed ruthlessness, on Nov. 9 recommended Moscow's forces quit Kherson and the west bank of the River Dnipro where they were dangerously exposed.
Surovikin, a 56-year-old veteran of wars in Chechnya and Syria who has been decorated by President Vladimir Putin, argued the withdrawal, completed two days later, would allow Moscow to save equipment and redeploy forces there - estimated by the United States at 30,000-strong - to offensives elsewhere.

Update: Russian nationalists blast 'General Armageddon,' demand he justify Kherson retreat (Jerusalem Post)
WNU Editor: When the war broke out I predicted that it would last into 2023, and maybe into 2024. I am still holding onto that prediction.
And as for the pressure that is being put on Russian General Sergei Surovikin to show results. He himself said that difficult decisions will need to be made (and the withdrawal from Kherson was probably that difficult decision), and it will take time.
When I heard his "time" remark, I said to myself that Putin has given him a mandate that does not have a timetable. In short. He has all the time that he needs to prosecute the war.
And this is not General Surovikin's "first rodeo". He was given the same mandate by Putin to prosecute the war in Syria, and during his command Russian/Syrian/and Hezbollah forces were successful in taking control of 50% of the country (link here).
