Well, who would doubt, only infantry and crews from Ukraine, already 80-85 percent, everything is imported.

[Aerodrome]

"suppliers" is a legitimate target in my opinion.

[Machito]

Oh, in vain my grandfather did not bomb this fascist Slovakia into the Stone Age. Slovakia is always on the side of the Hitlers. They are not our brothers. You need to soak them in the toilet.
You are not my brother, .... ..... (C) Brother.

The West seeks to crush us with its mass. Smoothly and inevitably strangle Russia like a rabbit boa. And sooner or later it will happen... Unless Russia raises the stakes to the level of a limited nuclear war on the territory of insignificant European countries such as Poland, Romania or the Baltic countries. Alas, but in an amicable way this war will not end.

We live under capitalism, but it does not need to destroy markets for products. What the hell kind of war?!

The US from Japan has created a great market with just 2 products.

Leave fairy tales about market capitalism for idiots.
The world hegemon needs slaves to serve his needs.

We do not want a nuclear war, but such a war gives us a chance for a draw. And if we refuse to use nuclear weapons, then we will simply be strangled with conventional weapons. In a non-nuclear war against the West, Russia has no chance.

That is why the main strategic goal was to grind the mobile reserve. Unlike money and technology, Nenki has a limited one. And there are no fools to really harness for dill with their regular armies, even in the West. Well, except perhaps in Poland, but she is also afraid.

Yes, do not be afraid of Poland, it is already under 2500 in Ukraine and these are real "retirees", so a clash with Poland and the Tribaltic is ahead! And we must understand this and prepare

Slovakia firmly supports Ukraine

So the time will come and, along with Ukraine, will be responsible for crimes in the Donbass.

[2 Level Advisor]

Yes, none of them will answer .. unfortunately .. where to answer? in a European court? and there is no war, as it were, but without war, who forbids supplies or is afraid to become a party to the war because of supplies?

How quickly our former friends in the VD went over to the camp of the enemy. It was the enemy, not just for the sausage that they entered the EU, but they took the side

But it should be noted that Gorbachev's collapse of the CMEA and the Department of Internal Affairs pushed them to this.
They can not be not fastened to something relatively stable.

Russophobia is a business and closing the eyes of the office "democracy and universal values" to the corruption of young democrats. Everyone should now understand the reason for the cries of Russian aggression.

A good indicator of geo-political processes is the position of the Arab oil magnates. Yes, not so long ago, the States even urged them on a gamble with a price war against Russian oil, but that it was a gamble - they quickly became convinced by examining the holes in their pockets.

And the fact that oil trade is now moving to national currencies is the main sign that the world has already changed globally. And no matter how the Anglo-Saxons puff up, the era of their dominance is rapidly leaving. They are still trying to convince themselves that everything is fine. And by inertia. But the same inertia does not allow them to get out of the conflict with minimal losses. So let them continue to spend resources on a deliberately losing ending.

The more they spend, the longer the whole world will live relatively calmly. Well, the task of Russia here, as always, is ungrateful, but also necessary - to break with their sweat and blood the deceitful and slave-owning system of neocon-globalizers built by their sweat and blood.
The entire so-called "third world" is now looking at us with hope.

I’ll just hand it over with tanks and armored personnel carriers, infantry fighting vehicles. Enemies are preparing for a summer campaign. The capture of Soledar and Bakhmut after all the retreats is certainly a breakthrough, but the enemies are starting a more serious war. , the same is not an option for us. The enemy is again imposing "their own rules of the game." And we are all waiting, either mobilized, or the weather, or negotiations in general. ?

That is why our task is to grind the enemy's manpower. Even if he puts 12-year-old boys under the gun of dill, it still takes 12 years to raise and nurture a human larva in decent conditions. A tank can be done in a couple of weeks.

So we have no choice but to destroy the main population of the Bandero-Skakuas. They cannot be replaced by supplies from NATO.
