⚡US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken:

We made sure that Ukraine was prepared for a full-scale invasion by Russia.

Starting in September 2021, we quietly got a lot of weapons to Ukraine to make sure that they had in hand what they needed to defend themselves, things like Stingers, Javelins that were instrumental in preventing Russia from taking Kyiv and erasing Ukraine from the map.

Would have saved lives if they did this before the Kursk incursion.

Get your inventory up of Iskander, Kalibr, and Glide bombs.
Any accumulation of forces above ground should be sent to the pearly gates. No questions asked.

Assume the 404s are retarded because they are.
Command watched the Ukrainians mobilize, but thought, "Surely, they wouldn't advance past the border when their lines are collapsing. There's no upside." And yet...
Clearly, it's a fool me once situation...

-Lord
I don't believe these. Are you saying the Russians knew that Ukraine were accumulating forces their and did nothing?

Yes.

For instance, Ukraine has deployed thousands near the Belarus border that Russia has opted not to target for obvious reasons.
The formations on the Kursk border were watched like a hawk, but the MoD did not expect them to cross.
It made no strategic sense.

Turned out to be a costly mistake.
It did have the silver lining of thinning Ukrainian lines in the Donbass, but the MoD will not allow a repeat.

I get your point but I believe you may have over simplify the whole thing, it is important to approach it from different angles.
I believe Ukraine's deployments near Belarus are likely defensive in nature, because of the close military and political ties between Belarus and Russia. For me it is a legitimate concern for Ukraine nd they needed to bolster their defenses in that area.

The Ukrainian strategy was to exploit Russia weaknesses in the kiosk region and divert her attention. Either Russia understood these and play the waiting game or they didn't see it coming, after all they don't have the all seeing eyes.

In Iskander i trust.

No problem is too big for it to solve.

There is no other weapons that Ukraine hate the most than the Iskander and KH-101 standoff strike platforms. They have wrecked untold destruction on the ukros.

News is based on facts and not opinions or speculations. Once you see news becoming opinions, as western media is, then be rest assured that it is propaganda. Another propaganda method common with western media is to report speculations as news. Once they begin using words like reportedly or claims in a news headline, or you discover the headline is in question format and ends in a question mark, be rest assured that it is propaganda and untrue.

Some say Ukraine man pulled the ad Soviet knife first others say it Russia dude and some say

Not Ukranian soldiers that pulled the knife. it was the Russian soldiers. That model of jack knife is selling like wild fire now in Russia.

⚡Rosatom plans to sue Siemens for "demonstratively refusing" to deliver prepaid equipment for Turkiye's Akkuyu nuclear power plant, CEO Alexey Likhachev said.

"There will be a court case, of course. The prepaid equipment has not been delivered. This resulted in additional costs for us, as we had to buy the equipment elsewhere and adjust the installation deadlines. These claims will be filed," the Rosatom CEO said.

The replacement was quickly found and ordered from friendly countries. The launch of the first unit is planned for 2025.

⚡Serbia is prepared to buy back Russia's 56.15% ownership in the "Naftna Industrija Srbije" (NIS) oil company for an estimated €700 million, should the country face the threat of U.S. sanctions.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić has stated that while the government is ready to take this step if necessary, they will make every effort to avoid such a scenario and preserve the relationship with Russia.

Close to five months now Russia is still trying to dislodge a fragment of Ukrainians in Russia territory,
The Ukrainians even started a surprise offensive today..

This is the same Russian army that wants to face off against a well motivated well trained and well armed US military.

5 months ago, total Kursk territory captured by the Ukrainians was about 1000km² Today it's just 400km².........yep, I think the Russians are making good progress recapturing ground.

When Lithuania was defending her independence from Moscow, we were asked by Western powers to "pause" our struggle, to protect russia from collapse. If we had listened, our country might not exist today. Sometimes fighting is the only way to win. ~ Gabrielus Landsbergies
Every sane individual or country know Russia for who it is. You must be really daft if you still believe Ukraine is wrong.

What a pile of horse poopoo. What folks like you need to understand is that the Era of the USSR is OVER. The Russian Federation is NOT the USSR. With it's massive and resource-rich landmass, why will the Russian Federation be interested in retaking Lithuania or any Baltic nation? It makes ZERO SENSE. This whole "empire rebuilding" coming from the west, especially from the small Baltic countries came up just after the 2022 invasion. What the west refuses to understand is that the Russian Federation is only interested in a single issue that has been the sole cause of this whole mess, and that is NATO's eastward expansion, hence Russia's reaction after DECADES of warnings that went unheeded.
