Reports coming in that Russian Air Force above Luganks in huge numbers. LPR reports that he sees this for the first time, a lot of combat aircraft and helicopters have just swept over the city. They went in several waves. Soon, deafening explosions thundered in the distance, windows and even the walls of houses trembled.
At this time, air raid sirens are roaring in Ukraine.

Reports on an explosion at a base located in Perchin east of Tehran where many military industries are located. One person was killed. The authorities are not giving any additional information which raises the chances that it was an attack by a foreign entity.

A quick breakdown of the $40 billion reveals $8.7 billion will go to replenish the US weapons stockpile (thus not going to Ukraine at all); $3.9 billion for USEUCOM (the ‘office’ that dictates military tactics to Kiev); $5 billion for a fuzzy, unspecified “global food supply chain”; $6 billion for actual weapons and “training” to Ukraine; $9 billion in “economic assistance” (which will disappear into selected pockets); and $0.9 billion for refugees.”

grin grin I thought they would give Ukraine the $40billion in hand. Imagine giving someone money and dictating for them how to use it.
So the weapons theyve been giving to Ukraine to defend democracy, isnt free and is apparently going to be paid with the money they've raised to aid Ukraine grin clowns.
Ukraine would be getting $10billion at max.
Mind you they've lost more than $80billion worth of assets and infrastructure with their economy in tatters ATM. poor Ukraine cry

I tell you, when Ukrainians know how much debts Zelensky has plunged their country into, they will assassinate him. That is, if the US/UK don't first.
The funny thing is, after this war. If they beg Russia, Russia will still forgive them and help them.

The sad truth is that Ukraine would never remain the same again after this war.
Coupled with the massive debt that would take generation upon generations to completely pay off, we don't know how far the russians would go before calling it a day.
But something tells me that with the price russia has paid, Putin would be sure to make sure he takes enough, like extremely ridiculous chunks of land to make up for it. If somehow Ukraine gets landlocked which isn't impossible, they're doomed! All their oil and gas reserves are in Donbas, lugansk and the south. All their farms and industries are there too. They wouldn't be able to export goods like wheat even if they manage to bounce back with production, except they'll start paying russia for access to black sea.

Russia will definitely forgive Ukraine and even take them back in. But I don't see russia trusting them that easily anymore. They've been going back on all the deals they signed with Russia whenever the west tells them to do so so it would be stupid to trust them.
Zelensky would have to be removed and even exiled for Russia to even consider. They man is too gullible, docile and daft. He lacks common sense. He had been feeling like godzilla before the past few weeks because he thought russia retreated from kyiv because of his successes.
He even went on to pause negotiations, claiming that he is ready to fight the battle and win even if it takes ten years. I'm afraid the damage would already be done and a huge irrecovable blow to Ukraine before he pleads with Putin

Axios: Israel turned down a U.S. request to allow Berlin to supply Ukraine with anti-tank missiles produced in Germany with Israeli technology under an Israeli license, two U.S. and Israeli officials said.

The missiles are produced in an Israeli-owned factory in Germany. According to the license, Israel must approve any transfer of the missiles to a third party.

These are the spike missiles.

To add, a senior Israeli official also said Israel is concerned Russian soldiers will be killed by Israeli-made weapons, which could lead to Russia harming Israeli security interests in Syria.

Lugasnsk is almost liberated. Russian planes are flying all over LNR right now. Once done, Khakov, Odessa will be taken. They will take all the access to the Black Sea all the way to Transnistria. Russia wants that Neon in Odessa.

Ukraine is never getting out of this. Russia with all its wealth paid off its Lend/Lease loans in 2006 while UK just paid hers off recently. Their generation is doomed.

This is a misguided comment
NATO and the US has done a lot
They refered Russia from announcing full invasion twice but rather Russia decided to sole a nagging question which kyiv refused to solve
Ending the 8 years civil war and been nuetral.
That is a ukraine fault not NATO nor EU
