International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15


To borrow a joke....

"An American and Soviet soldier are awaiting their fates in the afterlife. The Soviet soldier asks "would you rather go to American hell or Russian hell?" The American responds "American hell because in American hell you only have to eat one bucket of shit per day while in Russian hell you have to eat two buckets of shit." The Soviet responds "I'd rather go to Russian hell; one day there's no bucket, the next there's no shit."
 
Putin is actually increasing funding for small special operation and they are hiring a lot of foreigners too and with pride and smile.
Amazing stuff is that they are crying about mercenaries in Ukraine while Putin in public multiple times had confirmed that they are hiring foreigners and including foreigners with criminal records. Putin admitted that they are hiring also females and including prisoners.

Shame is that looks that huelensky zelonka maybe isn't willing to pay more $ ( they does have enough money for this , more than enough ).
 
Belarus began uregnt inspection of army combat readiness.
Most likely it will include also wartime stockpiles check up and to check mobilization readiness...
 


Moscow-vites are getting electronic messages saying that they've been drafted. I thought THAT was the line that Putin dared not cross, but I guess I was wrong.

Every word out of Putlers mouth is a lie so nothing should be a surprise, Putin will bury Russia and there really is no other way.....russia be Russia.
 


Cops can now get 10K rubles per head for everyone they send to the front. They're now sending alcoholics.
 

Russia’s New Missile And Drone Strategy Tests Ukraine’s Air Defenses​

For now, Russia holds an important advantage. Its combined missile and drone strategy appears to be working as intended, stretching Ukraine’s defenses while striking critical infrastructure. With winter approaching, these attacks threaten to weaken Ukraine’s energy grid and strain public resilience. The coming months will determine whether Ukraine’s new defenses can adapt quickly enough to blunt Russia’s renewed offensive power.
Russia destroys 60% of Ukraine's gas production weeks before winter heating season. Recent strikes force Kyiv to spend €1.9 billion on emergency imports to heat millions of homes.
 
She was a well intentioned curse on Germany...
While Gerhard did all the best to help Gazprom and Rosneftj and allowed refugees and immigrants he wasn't inclined to pay generous benefits for opposition who didn't had paid tax ...

Angela was different.
1. You have more kids? Then more for each kid and more tax reductions from income.
2. Considerably easier to get different benefits and allowances . .
3. Reduced role of previous tax payments history in order to qualify for benefits and allowances.
4. Better import salt from Ukraine and Belarus or even Poland rather than to have local jobs in Germany.
Germany does have more salt resources than Ukraine had in 2020 th. With Poland is the same btw.
Nope, lesser local jobs : better for Angela.

5. Heavily underfunded military ....
Ofc if I was MoD in Germany I had been forced to to exactly stuff they did :
ofc taxpayers and voters should not get airplanes falling on their heads in peacetime and to have funerals in peacetime cos ships are sinking.
These all requires a lot of funding ....
So obviously ground forces to save money is lesser risky for society... .

Let's keep some xx tanks in prime condition and shape, use for exercises etc and ...keep xxx in warehouses ( depots ) till level that after some years politicians forget how much tanks they does have, where they are located and might order to check stockpiles etc...and to do audit.
 
Hey @Darkballs, why don't you tell us more about your made up time in the Marine Corps? How you were the best NCO in the Company. Those two tours in Iraq you never went on.
You never had worked in military or for military. Never and in no one country.

If about POVs, if Putin had treated POVs like Napoleon had, then most likely Russia had occupied all Ukraine in 2022 th.
 
BTW Napoleon in some cases didn't had took POVs, just drop weapons and walk where you want.

Hitler was very stupid when treated POVs in brutal manner in central and Eastern europe, therefore even fast death might looked easier than slow death.

Quitin is continuing and is even more stupid than Hitler was in 1938 th.

It is so easy to see how bottlemates attempted to do with Ukraine Munich 1938 th and looks that a lot of under the table negotiations most likely are done and still are in force.
Still for them it isn't enough.

West never will be better ykr friend than Putin and in no case.
For west Ukraine even isn't proxy. Shock is that it is resin if business partner and bottlemate asks too much, then gave them a bit.
If will ask more...then some time to think.
NATO is best Putin's security btw. Always will be .
 
Ukraine had allowed Russia to fill bases in Crimea with soldiers and weapons, ammunition and food etc 1992-2014 th.
Also had leased them naval bases and some timeframe were strategic weapons and ammunition supplier for Russia, had conducted joint exercises with Russia how to fight vs NATO.

After 22 years of hard work to allow Russia to turn Crimea into weapons warehouse ....worse than Gaza etc...
Treating Crimea ppl regardless from origin [@] like poor idiots should live with prices not lesser than in Kiev or even more.. .and salaries plus jobs opportunities lesser.....
It was why it has happened.
 
West policy was pro Kremlin oriented regardless who and where had office. Till today.

Like: let's stop where you are and start to discuss seriously....we [ as proved by history ] will not supply anything that might change current balance and will reduce sanctions if you will agree.

Nope, Putin isn't Hitler 1938 th.
 
There are some tools pump most likely never will use ...
It isn't supplies of some old Tomahawks stuff for laboratorium tests how old stuff versions are working.

For example if Trump will order to sanction ROSATOM, Rosnetfj and Gazprombank plus fertilizers exporters....
We don't see this.
