Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments

Perhaps. But that would require huge investment. It would require 1,000 F-16, 5,000 M1A2, 10,000 M777, 1,000 Patriot PAC 3, 50 Arleigh Burke to fight Russia in war in Ukraine.

Russia is already being fought in Ukraine. if you haven't noticed.

Russia will not use nuclear weapons in Ukraine because its a special military operation, not war. Says Alexei Saizew, the spokesman of Russia foreign ministry.

Puh!!!

The world is one step back from the brink.

It's just a smart way of weakening Ukraine , they can't have a nation that can challenge the colonial euro leaders of France and UK. Ukraine will be in debt for generations forever paying the war costs.

With the amount of western hardware delivered it makes no difference. They need to 100 times that to make a small impact, 1,000 times that to make a moderate impact, 10,000 times that to beat Russia out of Ukraine.

Here in Europe states are always crying over the dangerous Russia cyberwarfare capabilities.

But Zelensky is making videocalls and posting instagram everyday and Russia didnt be able to capture him.

It would be a great prize a parade of Zelensky head 9th May. But they can't.

Starlink and Elon are shitting on the russians.

The EU is first and foremost economic competitor to the USA.
USA want to loot or even destroy the EU.

LOL, I would say europe has given more refugees to the US than the US has sent to europe.

Actually, it is true. The EU was formed before China or Japan had become economic powers. The USSR was never an economic power. The only global economic giant was the USA.

In the early years it had bigger GDP than USA. Please research some facts before misinforming everyone here.

Thecage armour over the top of the turret has no effect whatsoever against Javelin or NLAW ( or StugaP). They stupidly put it there, thinking that cage or bar armour increases the stand-off of the warhead, and thus reduces its effect. It doesn’t.They then tried sandbags on the tips of the cages; bad luck, that doesn’t work either

Please dot discourage the use of emotional support armour

Isn't this the same type of frigate used by the injians?

You need to distinguish dynamics of "offensive conflicts" from "defensive conflicts."

Napolean campaign = "defensive conflict" for then Russian hemisphere.

Hitler campaign = "defensive conflict" for then USSR.

Mongols showed that Russian hemisphere can be overrun and Russians can be defeated in their home-turf.

Hitler was up against both US-led forces in the West and the USSR in the East - the odds were not in his favor since 1942.

Ukraine campaign = "offensive conflict" for modern Russia and its forces can be defeated there. USSR was defeated in Afghanistan for example.

Modern Russia have significant nuclear warfare capability and there is no need to invade its mainland due to obvious reasons. Leap in technologies might provide an opening at some point in the future but Russian - Western relationship dynamics can also change over time. Time will tell.

I honestly think US could destroy russia in a conventional war without russia even being able to launch nukes against America. We are at the point or reaching the point where this is possible. Why else is russia investing so much in these new super-weapons that can deliver a missile in 8 seconds to London. etc. They must know their nuclear deterrence is compromised. They probably knew that in the 1980's when Reagan started talking about Star Wars program. And they just gave up the arms race and any serious competition against America.

What if Russia adopts a progressive socio-economic system, better than its USSR times ?

Not very hard to do.
