It's showing the EU or NATO without the US money and firepower are in a bit of trouble going forward,it's nothing new only a handful of countries spend the requisite 2% of GDP on defence, we already knew 12 months ago that NATO stores were running low and the EU then decided to pledge 1 million rounds of artillery ammunition despite not having the stock or the resources to do it ,we can blame the US to a degree but it's the EU who neutered defence spending and was more interested in governance and mass migration,
This was on the cards for weeks.
The incompetence and cowardice from the EU and America to give Ukraine what it needs to finish Putin is coming back to bite them.
Maybe Putin was right, we have gone soft in the West….
Unfortunately yes ,I just hope that they have prepared defensive lines to fall back to , I think it's a mistake trying to hold out like bakmuth it comes at a costly price in men and equipment, at the time bakmuth was re-enforced at least four with the some of the best units they had at the time and still lost it ,yes they kill thousands of Russians but lost numbers themselves,
I believe this is where some of the drama around the military Leadership is coming from
If true seems to be happening fast, I mean I know Russia has been fighting here for ages but seems the situation is fast unravelling for Ukraine here. More if Russia do take this will take Ukraine untold lives to take this back if they even can.
I don't know how much Fiji spend on their armed forces but from what I've heard, you don't want to mess with the Fijian army. Up there with the Gurkhas and the Maori Battalion for bravery and ruthlessness by all accounts.
Ask the HSE
More news coming from adviika things are not looking good at all ,
Weapons test ,
Who's weapons was tested hasn't been confirmed yet .....
Massive explosion. Probably be blamed on careless smokers like the dodgy windows.
In this case it's new Artillery shells which gets produced in 2024
Ukraine doesn't get the cash. It doesn't even get goods or services anywhere near the sums being quoted.
Say a country donates 100m in artillery to Ukraine. That equipment is invariably old and still serviceable but its worth nowhere near 100m; it's what the donor country would have to spend to replace it with new stock.
Nobody comes to boards for good news on anything, Russian or otherwise,
But when people talk about deporting Russians from all over Europe not a peep ,
Good news on boards when had that ever happened over the last 2 decades
But you can turn off Sigs so you do not have to see them,,,,,
Edgelord.
Russians or Putin Russians in public consider any human fighting Russians as offensive. 10 years ago the mask was still on that any retaliation against Russians was offensive and no one could go there as Russia was Russia. It was all perpetuated by Putin's fsb's throughout the world, influence on media.
Still. If your family was butchered by Putin's forces and you happened to click into a thread about Russia and hoping for some good news and then you see some poster named Gatling that you'd assume would be American and know what military and Russian forces are capable of and then you see their banner where one could take that Russians advancing are a joke with Captain Jack Sparrow.
Probably right though, Snowflakes.🤔
Hopefully decommissioned a good number of ballistic missiles and their makers in that big boom.
I remember 10 years ago I had a group of Ukrainian soldiers fighting off Russians and for some reason it was considered that offensive to Russians illegal occupying Ukraine,
It would have been funny if you had that banner except with the Afghanis are coming, directly after the Twin Tower attacks.
More on that big explosion. There was a HUGE explosion 💥 in Votkinsk, Russia 🇷🇺. The Votkinsk Machine-Building Plant – a manufacturer of 🇷🇺several Russian intercontinental ballistic missiles – has its headquarters here.
Most of the money doesn't go to Ukraine, it is spent buying weapons in the US. Where did you get the 40 bn. amount?
Snowflakes ???
Yes it's comedy,
People get soooo offended these days
As seen in other threads
Cheers for the buzzwords.
Where is this “threat” coming from?
I don’t understand that picture on your profile. Are you satirising the notion that Russia would attack another country somehow? It looks to be in very poor taste.
In the same interview when the point was made that this is about "Standing up for democracy" his immediate answer was that he "Doesn't care". This isn't just about some scumbag being interviewed by another scumbag.
Tucker Carlson is a cuckoo in our nest. One that needs to be recognised and tossed out promptly.
Scabbing? He is trying to make up for the west's failure to live up to security agreements for Ukraine.

Big stuff in Russia (reported as military plant)
Because Carlson said in regards to the invasion and genocide of Ukraine “I’m rooting for putin”. His interview will have an impact on Americans and damage support for Ukraine and ultimately might cost lives, lead to more mass graves, rape, the kidnapping of children. Tucker is now part of the genocidal process, he has blood on his hands.
I work in oil and gas, don't be innocent, they are getting "solutions" from everywhere..
Because he can ,
