US press: Biden administration realizes that additional forces and means may be needed to attack Crimea

The American edition of the New York Times published an article in which, citing "informed sources", it refers to "the recognition by the American administration of the fact that additional forces and means may be required for Ukraine to strike at Crimea."

The newspaper writes that while Washington is working on the possibility of Ukraine "to carry out an attack using HIMARS rocket launchers and Bradley infantry fighting vehicles" - without the use of long-range missiles.

Earlier, experts expressed the opinion that the Armed Forces of Ukraine might try to launch an offensive in the Zaporizhia direction in order to cut off land communication for Russia with Crimea, and then attack the peninsula itself. However, in the same United States, they believe that an attempt to attack Crimea by the Ukrainian army could become the notorious “red line” for Moscow, which could be followed by “unpredictable actions.” Zelensky, on the other hand, has repeatedly made statements to the West that there is no need to pay attention to warnings from Russia, including in terms of the supply of various weapons Kyiv - up to missiles with a range of over 80 km.

At the same time, the NYT article actually makes it clear that now the American administration (the Biden administration) is considering a variety of options for supplying weapons to the Kyiv regime, including those that it had not previously dared to supply.

They will not calm down. And we, or rather the political and military leadership, are to blame for this. When you take out a knife, you need to beat it, and not brandish it and threaten with "red lines" ...

That's just the point, Western writing has completely got rid of it, it must be hammered with all available means at hand, persistently creating an anti-colonial coalition, perhaps even blackmail in the style - "you leave us no choice, then we'll go to the bottom together." So far, I do not see effective efforts in this direction, judging by China's lethargy. The fifth column, its prominent and hidden figures, should be at least removed, for the active - landing, confiscation. Our military-political leadership is late in assessing the threats, speaking in a polite, diplomatic language.

[Ivan Ivanov]

About the fifth column: the most active and vociferous, especially those who helped the ukroreikh with money, need to be demonstratively taken out to the Russian Federation and imprisoned. There are enough candidates for export - Galkin, Grebenshikov, Pokrovsky, Smolyaninov, Monetochka. Danilov admitted - we were preparing society for war. What were we prepared for by multiplying these clowns?

[NikolayDS]

Danilov admitted

Danilov is simply worried that despite the 600-strong army of Internet warriors, their activities do not bring the desired results. Apparently, they are thinking - is it not time to send Internet fighters to the army in the field.

Zelensky, on the other hand, has repeatedly made statements to the West that it is not necessary to pay attention to warnings from Russia.

Zelensky, of course, has completely lost the coast from coke. But on the other hand, if our threats were accompanied by an understanding of the likelihood of their execution, then I think the NATO shobla would not have been so actively rocking the conflict to the state of world war

[dmi.pris1]

Well, now there is no turning back. The cavalry attack did not work out, to starve too. The only thing left is to bite the bullet, stop threatening (this has already become ridiculous) and fight.

they try to cook the Russian bear slowly so as not to hit the button

there they make amendments about the preventive use of tiao ... I hope we still bang

[astra wild2]

"understanding the likelihood of their execution" perhaps I am mistaken, but the Kremlin ALREADY DOES NOT have LEVERAGE, except for nuclear weapons, and starting TMV is not in the interests of Russia and America.
It seems to me that if at the end of January, the beginning of February it becomes sharply cold in Europe, and this happens, it will have a sobering effect on them.
As alcoholics, cold showers, brought to life?
Remember the old children's film about Aniskin, when the head of the club sobered himself up?

[Ivan Ivanov]

We have no chance of winning conventionally against 50 countries. Either we assemble a coalition, or use nuclear weapons, the only way to scare the devils.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

I will not be mistaken if I say that in the entire history of the existence of the Slavs, not a single people betrayed Russia like Ukraine and its citizens. First, silently. Then, with weapons in hand. How stupid and corrupt.

[optimist007]

Make no mistake, they are once for us, another against us!

[AAC]

There is also a miracle country Bulgaria. Which wouldn't even exist if it weren't for us. And they wouldn't have had anything if it wasn't for us. But in the event of a global conflict, they are always against us.

Add more Vucic. He said that "Crimea is Ukraine, Donbass is Ukraine" ... yes, the Christmas trees are green! Well, Russia helps everyone to stay in power, and then on her head, sir....!!! What are "near" like Kazakhstan, what are "distant" like Serbia !!!

[old]

There was no doubt that Vučić would be broken and made another pawn in the big game against Russia.

[AAC]

Well, exactly. He has Kosovo stuck in the ribs. He does not walk under a rainbow flag, in order to support one and be against the other, but the same. He is normal and, being surrounded, is still forced to maneuver between all the stones that are launched into him. Yes, and put in one row the statement and the supply of weapons is completely incorrect. In our time, a politician gave his word - he took his word, that's okay. And the shells will not fly back. So I don't agree with you.

[Ivan Ivanov]

I won’t be mistaken if I say that in the entire history of the existence of the Slavs, not a single people betrayed Russia like Ukraine

If you read the 10 commandments of a Ukrainian, it becomes clear that this identity is largely based on nationalism, separatism, does it have any other meaning at all? The Bolsheviks tried to make it (identity) Soviet. It could have worked, but it didn't, the root nature took over.

[flyer]

Bulgarians. They betrayed them, then we saved them, then, during the Second World War, we were betrayed again, well, secret arms supplies to Ukraine now.
It was necessary to solve the Ukrainian question after the victory, immediately in 1945, and totally. The cunning nationalists repainted themselves so as not to be destroyed in the dugouts and years later showed their insides. Any nationalism cannot be defeated, it can either be replaced by one's own (Russian, for example), or controlled through passionate representatives of the movement. The fact that the Ukrainians deceived, you probably do not need to be so gullible.

[legal]

And why did you betray us in 2014 (as well as 1991)?

[rotmistr60]

“the recognition by the US administration of the fact that Ukraine may need additional forces and means to strike at Crimea.”

This means that the United States plans to give Kyiv the opportunity to strike at the Crimea in order to bring the conflict to a new level. The Americans really want Russia to use tactical nuclear weapons, and for this it must be put in a situation where there is no other way out. In addition to strikes on Russian territory, to push the Poles to an "independent" decision to send troops to Western Ukraine, with the risk for Russia to bring in NATO troops.

[Pessimist22]

I agree with your opinion, the Yankees do not care about Europe, the main thing for them is to weaken Russia, Europe and the outskirts are just a tool.

[Ezekiel 25-17]

We'll have to answer and do this TNW.

Such smart cheers patriots surprise .. Do you hope to write these opuses from the trench?
Or from a warm sofa?

[ivan1979nkl]

Crimea sits in the liver of the West, but they said - it’s completely useless

[optimist007]

While Zelensky is thinking how to attack Crimea and return it, OTHER think about how the referendum will be held in Odessa and Nikolaev, the rest get ready!

[Graz]

it’s time to strike with tactical nuclear weapons at American military bases in Europe, does the Kremlin really not understand that if you don’t give the Americans a nose, our cities in Greater Russia and Crimea will be shelled.
What kind of co-operation, Kremlin pussies

[Sebostyuan]

I wonder what E.V. Prigozhin’s answer will be to the question. Why the Russian Federation does not strike at supply routes.

Prigogine will find a way to get away from the question.

The Americans are openly discussing how they will bomb the territory of Russia and kill Russian citizens, while ours only talk about concern. There are two options here, our top leadership has lost its eggs or our strategic forces are in the same deplorable state as the ground army.

[Frank Muller]

What kind of "unpredictable actions" are we talking about? Threats "we have not yet begun to fight", a new package of "concerns", "regroupings", "difficult decisions", "good will"? So it has already passed, it is not surprising, as it is quite possible to continue. And the fact that Russian parquet generals will suddenly turn into Suvorovs, Zhukovs and Rokossovskys is not very hard to believe. As well as the presence of some indefinite "red lines".

[Max Inquisitive]

Russia will not need additional forces to attack California, it has everything for this.

US press: Biden administration realizes that additional forces and means may be needed to attack Crimea

Recognized even by many Americans, Biden's dementia is superimposed on foreign policy.
Only in Russia they perceive his nonsense as some kind of liberties of an elderly politician.
This creature - a stronghold of insanity and sodomy - cannot be perceived at the level of the president, and even more so, it cannot give recommendations on the structure of Russia and its territory.

Who do they want to scare? Obviously they want something, to torture.

Why didn't it get exhausted? In a year and a half it will be seen whether it comes out or not. And, of course, you need to fight, yes.

Well no. They issued a warning. We didn't react. It is they who issue a repeated warning, deciding that we have not reached.
