Finally using their jets to protect their air space. Something they are lacking for a long time, coz many propellar drones have penetrate thru and bomb their oil refineries.

So long as American and European soldiers are not involved directly in combat with Russian troops in Ukraine, Putin will have upper hand.

2-3 years of full NATO support, ie. money, intel, weapons, ammo, etc and Ukraine has lost more territories and is running out of soldiers. What has changed for anyone to think Ukraine can take back lost territories? F16?  

NATO needs to do much much more to defeat Russia.  With no victory for Ukraine in sight, anti war sentiments will rise in Europe and time is on the side of Russia. 

Hard truths.

Indeed time is on Russia's side. At the beginning of the war, the russians were disorganized and incompetently led. They had supply and logistics problems made worse by corrupt officials.

But now given sufficient time, they've cleaned up their act, learned from mistakes, streamlined their economy to shake off the effects of sanctions and sustain the war... and they never seem to run out of manpower. It's true they are throwing migrants, minorities and prisoners into the mix and yet they don't seem short of manpower or weapons despite the purported heavy losses. 

By now even the ukrainians are starting to recruit from prisons and that's not a good sign.

Luckily there was infighting on the russian side that eliminated prigozhin. If he was still around and commanding his wagner units, then the situation might be worse now for ukraine.

Russia overtook US as gas supplier to Europe in May

Rise in market share highlights difficulty of weaning the region off Russian energy

I haven't seen the full clips, so this short clips ,may likely be out of context. But it funny to see Blinken's face when the Albanian calling out the three devils, with USA as one of them while hand gesturing towards Blinken. And he nodded in response LOL

Yes but at what price?

Is it true Europe cap the price that Russia is selling at a loss?

China buys Russian gas at 28% less than Europe until 2027.

China smart to screw the Russians to sell at a big loss.

India also screwed Russia buying oil below cost.

All these countries screwing Russia so bad hor!

The is only one reason Putin organising a conference for a cease fire.

He knows he has lost.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Only an idiot cannot see this.

Z has Putin by the balls.

Sure Putin can throw African students and prisoners and Indians that kenna con and took up the US$3k a month jobs in Russia to be a cook or warehouse worker but Russia is losing 1,000 men a day.

Not sure these African students or Indian cooks even kill one Ukrainian soldier before kenna blown up by a drone. 

Russian scrap metal in the fields of Ukraine.
