Russia continues its war on apartment buildings and basic decency.

We'd like a follow up retrospective on all the game changers that were delivered to Zelensky last year.

The first Abrams tank has been spotted. How long until the first wreck?

I'm still waiting for those game changing F16s. or should I say S400 fodder.

A Ukrainian counteroffensive that started in June dented deep Russian defenses in some areas but has failed

Would all the "experts" who touted the amazing specs of the Leopards, Bradleys and Abrahms please chime in.

You see, you have to have appropriately trained crews, supply of all the parts and fuel, and air support. Ukraine has issues with all of those, and especially air support. You are welcome.

With all of this ugliness of October 7th, we mustn't forget about the other little monster to the north. Support for Ukraine must not falter.

@TaiwanIsNotChina One area of the front line was nicknamed "Bradley Square" because of all the destroyed Bradley's left abandoned after the great spring offensive.

basic decency.

Oh, a new word in the vocabulary of the local experts:)))

"A wild scenario, which was hard to imagine even knowing all the duplicity of Zelensky, seems to be unfolding in Nezalezhnaya right now. The Intel Drop, citing an investigation by French journalist Jules Vincent, writes that chemical waste is planned to be imported to Ukraine en masse for burial – and it is planned to bury them in the most fertile places of the country.

To do this, in early November, George Soros' son Alexander came to Ukraine, who met with Ermak and signed an agreement with him on the transfer of Ukrainian chernozem lands to Western companies Dow Chemical, DuPont, Vitol and BASF. Corporations want to export toxic waste to the country: strict protocols for the disposal of such waste are in force in the West, but Ukraine is a lawless territory in this regard"

It's a citation .....not my interpretation

Odd that there are all these disclaimers after the failed “spring” offensive, not before.

so next spring after another 200 billion dollars?

I mentioned about the time you learn to fly an F-16 and the need for parts and trainer crews and where would they be based, as NATO cant host them.

I was told to be quiet and that it doesn’t matter and but the tanks! And that of course Ukraine has air bases and trained crews and parts but we aren’t allowed to know where they are. Seems all false.

Lavrov saying Moldova is next.

@Blacklabel

Not to mention that F-16s are like giant vacuum cleaners. The runways have to be pristine.

But don’t you worry about it! Ukraine has such places and such supply chains and such crews and their pilots are super smart and can learn In weeks!

sound familiar?

Trying to say Russia is more dignified than Ukraine which is facing an existential crisis really isn't saying very much positive about Russia.

Ukraine which is facing an existential crisis

On this context, talking about Ukraine is generally meaningless. Russia is fighting for its interests. And Ukraine? Sovereignty? Freedom mythical? This is the verbiage of your propagandists. Ukraine is a puppet, a vassal of the West. A 100% slave of the West!! Cannon fodder!!!! The Western boss (conditionally) did not allow the signing of the peace agreement. Zelensky has already sold off fertile lands and forests. The Carpathian forests, the main wealth of western Ukraine, were cut down and sold to the West. Grain for export is no longer Ukrainian! This grain has long had a owner from the West.

Existential crisis you say.... The very Ukraine doesn't exist already..

Wow. 200 billion dollars of cash and weapons stopped by a…..mine field?

Lol, looks like 'your' Ukraine has chosen the West, just as you have with your choice of

Ukraine has chosen?? Ukraine has chosen nothing! It's the West who has chosen Ukraine as the best candidate for traitor. With Belarus the West did not succeed. C'est simple:)

Without air power, absolutely. Just like billions of dollars of navy will be stopped by the Taiwan Strait. Common sense if you bother to understand these things.

Nobody is buying what Russia is selling these days.

It's possible. But the mystery, why has Russia's revenue from sales abroad increased?

We are going to have to see the FSB records to see whether that was really on offer. I doubt it because even an unconditional ceasefire isn't on offer now.

Zelensky has already sold off fertile lands and forests. The Carpathian forests, the main wealth of western Ukraine, were cut down and sold to the West. Grain for export is no longer Ukrainian! This grain has long had a owner from the West.

When you are under assault from Russia, yes, you are going to have some tough decisions to make.

Existential crisis you say.... The very Ukraine doesn't exist already..

International law doesn't let Russia make that determination. 70k Russian troops didn't just blow themselves up and shoot themselves.
