This is the problem with the immoral rich; they never have enough money and they have no soul. Basically they will do anything for a few dollars regardless of the cost to others.Tucker Carlson tried to keep his current visit to Moscow quiet, but it's just broken on Russian channels. Cucker Carlson is a scum bag right wing propagandist will try to get the right wing politicians to slow down/stop funding to Ukraine.
Speculation he is either going on 1 of the Russian Propaganda talk shows (i.e. Vladimir Solovyov) or to interview Putin for the American audience.
The situation is still bad overall for Ukraine. The foothold they have on the east bank is still shallow and its not likely to change much because the ground gets steeper (in favor of the Russians) and they will be further away from fire support in the west bank.What is going on here then?!

Seems Russian forces in the area are woefully undermanned. There is also reports that ice have currently melted and not expected to return for at least two weeks.
Excellent!Love it, check out this 4km drone incursion to take out a bridge. KZ-4 mine strapped to a long distance 4WD rover does the job, directed explosions FTW. AFU drone operators just waltz right on in and fuck it up. Outstanding. Gotta love low cost, low risk missions with high value rewards.
BOOM cyka!
Special military operation proceeds according to all plans.
Fuck that's a lot of hardware for relatively no personnel lost. I wonder if they were convoying and ambushed?
Ukraine already had no chance of winning but now it has to compete with Israel for US money and attention. No one can compete with Israel when it comes to US support so this means Ukraine has to be regularly funded by America's European vassal states. Give the Ukrainian oligarchs endless amounts of money so they build mansions and beach properties ...
Haven't you read the Russian press release; everything is going as planned !Would you say the war is going well for Russia?
Sanctions have failed, Russia is growing its economy and their weapons industry is much bigger than America's. America has to beg the world to give ammo to Ukraine.
It's not about winning or not. I feel bad for the poor Ukrainians who got their country destroyed and many killed and hurt.
With more and more US weapons heading to Israel, poor Ukraine has to question being so dependent on the US ...
Maybe Canada can send two of its remaining three tanks ...
The Russians can get ammunition and other small weapons from its allies because the entire West is funding and arming Ukraine. Even the small NATO countries are sending whatever few weapons they have. The Brits have probably emptied out their warehouses by now.The Russians can't easily build a surface combatant larger than a corvette and had to got hat in hand to the North Koreans for artillery ammunition and missiles. The. North. Koreans.
Yes, the US arms industry is vastly larger and better than Russia's. Producing superior and more capable arms and munitions. The Ukrainians fought the Russians to a standstill with 30 year old hand me downs.
I think the Ukrainians would argue it is about winning and securing the territory they were guaranteed in writing multiple times by Russia and the west.
I think this overstate things because it appears those 'new' tanks aren't lasting very long. At the rate that Ukraine is destroying tanks they would need 10x that. Of course they seem to lack the ability to actually make TANKs - that is tanks that are much more resistant to instant destruction.The Russians can get ammunition and other small weapons from its allies because the entire West is funding and arming Ukraine. Even the small NATO countries are sending whatever few weapons they have. The Brits have probably emptied out their warehouses by now.
So the North Koreans apparently have a large stockpile, so why not? America seems to want to use Ukraine as a proxy to go after Russia so Russia can look at its allies for weapons too. Don't see a big deal.
Russia is replacing its destroyed tanks at a rate of 100 a month, UK intel says
Russia has "only achieved minor territorial gains," but its ability to replace tanks means it doesn't need to slow offensives, the UK MOD said.www.businessinsider.com
Even the UK says that Russia is building 100 tanks a month, which is huge compared to the West. Can Ukraine deal with this given its exhausted troops and low stockpiles of weapons? The article is biased by assuming that Russia cares a lot of territory. It does but only the Russian speaking regions and Crimea. I have yet to see any desire for them to expand much further West.

But you have to admit that the sanctions were a flop in hurting the Russian economy too much. It seemed to have hurt the Western Europeans more I think considering how unpopular their governments are. I think people there are tired of this Ukraine war and want to end the funding. Could be wrong though.
As far as the US arms industry, I think you are overexaggerating its abilities. They are hurting badly in many ways, especially with Patriot missiles, artillery rounds and other things that the Ukrainians need. America spends the most by far in its military but that doesn't translate to a lot of success. This is all without even factoring in China, Iran and other supposed enemy states which have huge stockpiles.
