At the start of the war, they said Russia can only afford to lose 500 tanks and they were only making 600,000 shells for artillery a year. Yet russia has lost over 7000 tanks and is making 3.3 million shells a year and found another 12,000 tanks in storage they took back when the USSR collapsed. Along with 23,000 artillery. Some dating back to the 60’s and 70’s but they are being updated with better range finders.

[@piddudidzegame4982]

Ask yourself the question, why did NATO form at all? and why Russia was not accepted into NATO when Putin asked the US leadership about possible membership. NATO at the borders of Russia and the deployment of any long-range missiles at the borders of Russia is a danger. And that is why the Russian Federation is now deploying new military facilities closer to the Finnish border. It was NATO that came to Russia's borders, not Russia that came to the United States with its weapons.

I also feel for them. I don't buy it either. I had a girlfriend from Moscow between 2016 and 2021 and during covid I was checking the Moscow Times website almost every day to see when the Russian borders would re-open to the UK. There were many Russian civilians angry with Mr Putin in January 2021, including my girlfriend, after the release of the documentary by Navalny's team called 'Putins Palace' showing a very large complex near to Sochi, basically showing to Russia, that Mr Putin had been gobbling up all their money for many years to build this private complex. Just over a month later (Match 2021) the Russian military were magically on Ukraine's border for 'training purposes'... From the opinion of someone who loved Russia for many years, tried to learn the language and met many great people and friends from Russia, it comes across to me that Mr Putin had to quickly divert the attention of an angry population elsewhere, using the art of projection to blame others for his own actions. I have a Russian language tutor from Kharkiv in Ukraine who has been teaching me the Russian language since October 2019. I still stay in touch with her and check how she is even though I don't need to speak Russian anymore. Russian people are nice people as are Ukrainians but Mr Putin is an aging, aggressive, mentally ill, very sick individual who has sent thousands upon thousands of Russian people to their deaths, blaming half the globe. Many of the Russian youtubers I followed for years to help me with Russian, including one with a PHD in Russian history left Russia for a reason..

German Chancellor Scholz opposed the idea of ​​creating a “no-fly zone” in western Ukraine (Bild): “This will involve Germany, Europe and NATO directly in the war in Ukraine. These plans could turn Germany into a “party of war” and lead Putin to unpredictable reactions,” the chancellor said. “No decision should be made foaming at the mouth,” he added. The object of the Chancellor’s criticism was a ten-page document by ex-NATO head Rasmussen, presented by him together with the Ukrainian government in preparation for the next NATO summit in the United States in July. The document, among other things, proposes expanding the air defense shield “along the western border of Ukraine.” Illegitimate Führer Zelenskyy expressed this idea. Earlier, German Defense Minister Pistorius said that “this is not being discussed seriously.”
