Reminder that NATO were building up the Ukr military to fight this conflict since 2014 and that $60 bil is nothing compared to the hundreds of billion that have already been sunk into 'project Ukraine'. The $60 billion is just meant to try to get Ukr to stay on it's feet until November.
Reminder too that Russia destroyed the Ukr air force in the first weeks of the conflict and it's Russia that has not only the technological advantage with hyper-sonic missiles and 5th gen fighter aircraft, but also has a clear arms production advantage able to out-produce the US and the EU combined several times over. Notice too the the west is not even trying to catch up, that should tell you all you need to know.
Delaying the end of the conflict will only mean more Ukr dead and a demographic that will spell the end of Ukr as a nation. And encouraging Ukr to fire missiles deeper into Russia will only guarantee more land lost as Russia demands an ever increasing 'buffer zone'.
The only point to the US delaying the inevitable end is to prevent another embarrassing Afghanistan type failure for Biden in the run up to the US election.
Re: WW3 Countdown
2762If this is an extension until November, which however has been going on since 2014,
then it is highly likely that it will be extended much longer...
BTW, I read somewhere that the total number of 5th gen fighter aircraft SU-57
is equal to 10 (ten). The US / NATO air superiority is overwhelming, compare e.g.
the old bomber TU-95 to B-52 (TU-95 is closer to B-29).
As you know, many Soviet weapons were developed on the basis of industrial espionage.
The Kremlin does not have high-class domestically produced electronics
to build technologically advanced equipment. However, it was a tycoon in the production
of analog systems (which, as we know, can survive an electromagnetic pulse during a nuclear explosion).
then it is highly likely that it will be extended much longer...

Re: WW3 Countdown
2763The conflict can't continue once Ukr has run out of soldiers. A report yesterday said the newly mobilised had their 2 week training cut short and were rushed to the front to plug gaps (posts from the people involved themselves). Once the Ukr army collapses it will all get very ugly very quickly.wojtek wrote: Mon Apr 22, 2024 6:02 pm If this is an extension until November, which however has been going on since 2014,

NATO absolutely will not be entering this war, they have said as much and have made absolutely no preparations for doing so. Reminder that the west has already stripped itself of weapons to give to Ukr.
I don't know what kind of propaganda you might believe. Yeah, yeah, Russian convicts fighting with shovels and stripping the chips out of their washing machines . But no NATO country has been able to make hyper-sonic missiles whereas Russia's had them for years.

Re: WW3 Countdown
2764This is true, that's why it was a mistake to supply the Ukrainian army
with equipment of average quality ('too weak to win, too strong to lose')
when this army was still fully efficient and functional (i.e. two years ago).
And the Kremlin has practically unlimited human resources, as I wrote before.
This is not a propaganda - e.g. compare the number of aircraft carriers
(the US - 11, UK, France, Italy), and the only one Admiral Kuznetsov
which is not too big and under constant renovation.

Re: WW3 Countdown
2767There are only 2 honourable ways out of the Ukr army. There are no 'tours of duty', once you're in the only way out is severe wounding or death, that's it. So not surprising then that talk of mutinies is getting louder after the Ukr parliament failed to include the long waited demilitarisation bill allowing those longest serving to leave.
Meanwhile, in addition to talk of a Russian build up of forces in the north east Ukr intel now say there is also a new build up of Russian troops in Bakhmut as part of the expected Russian spring/summer offensive.

Reminder that there has been no meaningful increase in arms production in the west, tells you all you need to know about NATO commitment to this conflict, once Ukr has run out of men it's all over and Russia knows it.

Re: WW3 Countdown
2769Mutinies spreading throughout the Ukr army. Azov (renamed the 3rd assault brigade), the 47th brigade, and 3 other brigades all refusing orders to go into the contact zone.
The famous 47th were the latest to disobey orders siting that they have not been rotated for over a year and are in no condition to enter battle.
Newly mobilised recruits, with LESS than 2 weeks training, are now being sent straight into the hottest battles against the steady Russian advance.
