Ukraine is now capable of launching missiles against Moscow from Kursk | Diane Francis

"Not missiles. Special military projectiles." Ukraine

[@k-dawgbroadcasting5444]

Today is Ukraine's independence day. Russia hasn't retaliated to show force on a day to make a statement. Russia is really reeling

[@kittyhawk9707]

Rather then having Moscow in missile range ..surely this will allow Ukraine to strike Russian forces on the Eastern front with said missiles ... as they have a pretty reasonable safe area in the Kursk oblast to launch them from .. Would take the pressure off the Ukrainian troops on the eastern side of ukraine

[@BellsWatson]

Full mobilization for what purpose? Russia's industrial base is already strained trying to replace the heavy equipment destroyed already. Can Russia feed, clothe, arm tens of thousands of raw recruits that will need training before they are of any use? Assuming they can get the supplies they need do they have the means to get those men and machines to the front line? Russia is discovering a lesson they should already have learned - wars are expensive. Every Ruble spent on the war is a Ruble taken out of their economy. The question that should be asked (inside Russia) is even if they win, what have they won? Was the price too high? My uninformed opinion is that the military is going to ask that question and decided it would be easier and cheaper to replace Putin then to continue to fight Ukraine.

[@DobaZlatno]

Dont worry. They have China. You need to understand it Is over with dollar and swift. This Is war between east and west and every year go by BRICS will count 100 milion peoples more. Ukraine Is just the army but weappons Are made in China.

[@acevedo128]

[@maestro6458]

Russians, unlike the West, are not fighting for the economy and profit. TThat is why the Westt will leave this war when it ceases to bring them income.

[@lacdirk]

Like Ukraine, Russia will need to find other countries to make up the shortfall in supplies. As it gets more desperate, it will be willing to offer more and more for those supplies. So the only question is whether there is a price at which China (or a large number of other countries) is willing to openly supply them with weapons, food and money.

I share her same personal feelings and perspective but appreciate her honesty. Thats as accurate and candid as you will hear it. The eat and potato's of it Ukraine iis remarkable. Courage , integrity, with all the tension in US over Gaza its amazing contrast with how Ukraine has fought and done so while being more respectful of US policy than even citizens hear feel they should have to be. I hope that like any true ally that good behavior is rewarded with trust. They literally took extra casualties and loss of civilian life because if US restrictions on weapons so hopefully that is not the case ever again. Their soldiers have proven themselves not just militarily but with integrity. After everything they have seen and experienced incursion into Kursk could have easily seen soe actions out of revenge, but they havent let themselves become what they are resisting. Thats pretty remarkable. Nice to see prisoner swap on independence day those warriors deserve it✌
