I did not say a European military is a treat to the US. I said a European military faced with no prospect of support from the US and thus obliged to spend 2.5% of European GDP would exceed the capabilities of the US miulitary. Right now Europe as a whole spends closer to 1%. 2.5% would take it beyond the US military.
In addition you say that the European military is now not a treat to the Russian military. That is untrue, the NATO members in the EU far exceed the military capibilities of Russia right now, a Russian attack on European NATO would be easily repulsed by European NATO members without US assistance, the issue is it would not be confined to conventional warfare and once the leopard tanks tanks of European armies make mincemeat of the Russian assaults led by 1970s equipment the russians would simply throw nuclear warheads at the victorious European NATO armies.
And still better than the RTE newsroom
You still have nothing to add Mick
At least for the Topol-M, I'm not aware of a conventionally tipped model. Also, I'm not sure if the nose cone could take a thermobaric weapon. Aren't those things pretty massive?
Thanks will read into it
Didn’t he call putins move genius?
The same guy who fawned over numerous tyrants and murderers. Pathetic.
a thinly veiled reminder/threat?. somebody was always gonna upload it so would not even need RT
I gave you three things Ireland is doing to help the people of Ukraine.
The article you provided is from Oct 2021....a few things might have just changed since then.....
Meanwhile in the UK
Theres zero chance of a nuke being launched at Ukraine. Even an ICBM with a normal ballistic payload would be treated as a Nuclear launch by NATO and we already know the time to react to what it is and where its going is extremely small so retailation would be immediate.
Just about getting tired of your comments regarding everyone should just go in now and trigger World War 3 / nuclear war.
Then, you're posting these scaremongering fake videos about ICBMs rolling through Moscow.
It's all about extremism from your side.
Give it up FFS.
At the sherry ,🍷
Horseshit
Did you even read the other tweets from that person? They are calling it out as fake themselves.
Yes, I’ve looked at it a few times, and I agree..
Yes, Shroeder came out with an idiotic LinkedIn post yesterday: mistakes on both sides, should not burn bridges with Russia, etc.

They said it could be fake or an old video hence why I said it was unvarified
Threadbanned
Why would he need to nuke Ukraine, he can take it anytime and as Ukrainian president said they are on their own.
Yeah they will get best wishes from NATO, EU and rest of world, but the West can't even be bothered to come together and even remove Russia from the SWIFT system FFS.
A Spanish team last night had to play a Russian team in Europa League, the day after Russia invaded another sovereign European country.
FFS the West is a joke now. Dithering over sanctions. The fooking Germans are trying to ensure that they don't get cold ar**es by not going all out against Russia so that the gas can be turned back on soon.
Every link Russia has to the outside world should be immediately cut, and by that I also mean phone and comms links.
Wiki says his father is deputy general director of science for gazprom. Probably not that big, but still... also in 2018 revolut raised 250m funding by dst global, which was founded by yuri milner, who has been backed by the kremlin in his previous investments
In fairness to ze Germans, they had massive links (remember it's only 30-odd years since a big part of the country was controlled by Russia) already and were trying to bring Russia into the fold. Follow the successes of European Integration. They now however need to admit their mistake and change course ASAP.
Plus Ireland isn't in Schengen.
With all the talk of nukes, you have to remember it takes a human to press that button. Whether it be a submarine commander or the biggest cheese in the Russian armed forces. Even Vlad couldn't do it alone.
If Vlad ordered it, a second party at least will have to go with it. Even if it was from a Silo, it will be manned by people. I would imagine the military would just say enough is enough.
Thanks really appreciate the info....might switch to using my monese completely
Something Irish people should cop on about is the fact about the number of ethnic Russians we have here who claim to be Lithuanian, Lativan, Ukrainian, etc.
They still favour the old motherland rather than the country they hail from.
Oh yeah that too! Ta
Amazing turn out
Could find himself in a deal of legal trouble when all this is done and dusted.
Not something I'd considered or come across much. Met a few Russians, some who hated Putin, some who love Russia, some in both camps, some in neither.
I'd never considered there were a huge amount of secret Russians though.
