“This is self-defense”: the United States allowed Kyiv to use American weapons to strike at Crimea

125

The Americans have nothing against the use by Kyiv of the US-supplied weapons for strikes on the territory of the Crimea. According to a senior White House official, Crimea is "part of Ukraine."

According to the newspaper Politico, the United States allows the use of American weapons for strikes in the Crimea, as it believes that all the actions of the Ukrainian army are "self-defense". In addition, Washington is confident that Crimea is part of Ukraine, and Kyiv can do whatever it wants on "its own territory". The White House also said that the Americans do not take part in the conflict and do not choose targets for defeat.



We don't select targets, of course, and all we have provided is for self-defense missions. Any target they decide to choose on sovereign Ukrainian territory is by definition a target in self-defense (...) Crimea is Ukraine

- said a senior American official.

In Ukraine, such a statement by the representative of the White House was clearly delighted, since the main "sponsor" of the Zelensky regime officially gave permission to use American weapons for strikes in Crimea, although Washington had previously stated the opposite. Meanwhile, the first statements about the peninsula have already been made in the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. In particular, the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov, appointed to this position because of his ability to "negotiate", but who does not understand anything in military affairs, announced the readiness of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to use American weapons on the peninsula. True, he did not go into details.

It is worth noting that the American official, saying that the United States does not decide on targets for strikes, is, to put it mildly, a lie. Recently, an adviser to the head of Zelensky's office, Aleksey Arestovich, speaking about the possibility of a strike on the Crimean bridge, said that everything depends on the team from Washington. If the Americans give the command, then the Armed Forces of Ukraine will strike, and if not, then Kyiv has "many other goals."

    But don't such strikes fall under the nuclear doctrine of the Russian Federation. Crimea is still part of Russia.

      But I wonder if we will pretend here that nothing is happening and everything is going according to plan? There are a lot of vacationers from all over the country in Crimea now. The head should be immediately torn off even for any sideways glance towards the Crimea. The adversary becomes impudent not by the day, but by the hour. And we do not cut anything hard. Although what am I talking about if we cannot give an adequate answer even when they are hitting the ZNPP and trying to disable the Kursk nuclear power plant, provoking a new Chernobyl on our territory. The West may have serious doubts about our ability to use nuclear weapons due to the indecision we showed during the NWO . With our peacefulness, we ourselves will provoke the West to aggression towards us. Seeing everything that is happening now, he may well think that we are a paper tiger. The West will simply stop believing in our determination and consider that we will not dare to press the red button if something happens. That is the main danger.

                      You are still exaggerating. Paladins were actively sold, M198 were given away. There are a few hundred of course, but not thousands.

                      The most incomprehensible situation with shells. The old ones were actively disposed of, but new ones were not made in quantities "for the third world war." Haven't seen a single review on stock status, but new production is very, very moderate, literally the first thousand pieces a year. But this is in America, otherwise 155mm produces half the world, if not the whole (China produces for export, even the Russian Federation depicted something in this caliber at exhibitions). Again, you have to look, work.

              Voice from Germany: I think we should respond to the latest attacks on power lines and substations with similar attacks in Ukraine. I support the opinion of Yuriy Podolyaka, who calls for stopping the supply of electricity from Ukrainian power plants to neighboring countries. Before that, this should be announced and justified in the media, through ultimatums from the Russian Foreign Ministry and Russian embassies. This would lead to a reaction towards Ukraine.

          Why do we need American bases in Syria? The NVO is in Ukraine and the answer must be given precisely in this theater of operations, because it is from there that the threat comes to us. The threat to Crimea and other areas bordering Ukraine. And it must be given an adequate the answer is, until they arrange a new Chernobyl for us. Stop playing pretty, we won’t be like that for anyone anyway, Western propaganda has fashioned enemies out of us over the years, that’s it, we’ve passed. Our goodness plays against us.

          Depending on what you mean by erase. Release a package of 106 mm rockets and declare the destruction of the devil's nest - yes. Like in Iraq and then savor the leakage of a psychologist's visit log for a year. If you seriously besiege the base, kill 50+ Americans, then the latter will no longer have a choice - they will play the reverse card, the new Pearl Harbor, with all their might and without restrictions, the government army will end quickly, with a big question about Khmeimim and Tartus, where of course there will be no direct attack, but life there will be dramatically complicated.

              If you make a full-fledged Storm in the Desert - Syria, that is, with a concentration of a thousand aircraft, AUGs, the transfer of 100-200k contingents to Jordan + attracting Turkey in exchange for the ancestral northern lands, from where the Ottomans came as a great empire, and the army will roll into dust, then it makes no sense to level the bases of the RF Armed Forces. They can be survived by a soft siege and blockade, since in fact the Russian territory = the perimeter of the base, but behind it is the occupation / new Syria.

Moreover, during the annexation of Crimea, so many words were said that this would move NATO away from the Russian Federation and would be a buffer. And now we will apply this to the performance of the Uryakls, who are not carrying out the NWO, but directly fighting, they are defeating the collective West. So then, in general, apparently everything is fine with us, the enemy spends ammunition in the buffer zone. Everything as many dreamed of. Or is it not good again?

    Regarding the "commands from Washington," military observer Alexander Sladkov wrote well in his cart today:
    A couple of times I participated in an adventure game in the Ford Boyard fortress. When we first moored to this man-made island, I saw all these stone nooks, casemates, a huge copper gong, dwarfs, and so on. And then he got to the "central post" of Boyard.

    I saw a giant director's console with many screens. And I was stunned: all these "adventures" were managed by the directors of the game.

    Even a knight's sword, stuck in a stump, which I pulled in the form of tests, was controlled remotely. I pulled it out only when the director pressed the button and released it.

    I experienced shock. All the intensity of the struggle, all the victories and failures of individual participants and entire teams took place exclusively at the command of a hairy man in jeans and a greasy T-shirt.

    Everything is the same in Ukraine. "Ammunition Diet" is an American term. All actions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Ukrainian national battalions take place at the wave of the "magic wand of the Yankees."

    And Europe, the fool, also dances and freezes exclusively on command. Only this is no longer a game, this is the manipulation of 37 million lives of Ukraine conquered by the West.

    The “ammunition diet” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine comes not because there is no ammunition. This is what London and Washington want. So they need it. Only stupid people talk about "defending the Motherland from the Russians". The Russian army is going to liberate Ukraine, and the “ammunition diet” is not terrible, let the Ukrainians think about the gas shortage, about the arable land sold to the West, about their Motherland, turned by Zelensky and his masters into a training ground.

    We will release you.

    Beat not only in the Crimea. They also hit Kursk and Belgorod regions. I don’t think that at the same time, Ukrainians are closely monitoring the country of production of the projectile, mine, drone, explosives, etc. So, can you tell yesterday the warehouse in Belgorod by what specific weapon, whose production was attacked?

All these words are hypocrisy. ATAMCS, if installed, can launch the same Kursk from a British installation. The British did not make any restrictions at all.

        The harpoon is able to work on the ground, but it won't get it from Odessa. Theoretically, an aircraft with AGM-88 could approach. The Ukrainians say that these are not rockets, but saboteurs with drones. It is difficult to say whether it is true or not, the version with saboteurs is objectively beneficial for Ukraine: spy mania and hunting for partisans always cost the attacked side dearly, often more than the actual damage from the partisans.
