It is interesting Branko that you claim to have family who fought fascists and you do not seem to be able to tell one. Or maybe is a question of having the right type of fascism?

Usual russian pig propoganda
Other readers please know - when russians capture ukrainians, they torture them till they cooperate with captors, say on camera every unimaginable bullshit they are given to tell. This already happened in 1960s with POWs in Korea and Vietnam.

Last two years I lived more in Ukraine than in my home country. I know the truth.

So this is Russian propaganda too? Sky news?

By now anyone other than Ruzzia could have figured out that this war is not a good idea. I read today the economic cost of the war. It is more than 200 billions. It would have produced much better results if invested literally in anything else.

Just for comparison, you could buy the whole Pepsi Co. with the money wasted, or nearly 2/3 of Bank of America, nearly all Netflix, the whole of Mcdonalds, ... This is just for all to understand how stupid is to waste money for a landgrab that has nothing on in after you shell & destroy.

It would have served Ruzzia much better to build something useful and profitable, but I guess that is not the Ruzzian way.

Oh, add a few more tens... This night there has been an ATACAMS strike - the ones that "do not work" - on the airbase in Belbek, Sebastopol. The pictures of the day before show more than 10 Su jets parked in there. Anyone for a betting on how many are no longer in services?

I agree...I'm totally puzzled why USA continues to pour money there, they could for example collect all human feces off the streets of San Francisco.

Quite simple, the more you demilitarise Ruzzia and the more the Ruzzian economy gets crippled the less money you have to spend in having troops and means. It is called the peace dividend.

do you think that US economy is suffering by selling more weapons? do you think that 200 billions mean anything for the US?  0.3% of their gdp? 0.4% if things are more interesting for them?

He said that before the war Russia would typically splash around 3-4% of its annual gross domestic product on defense but now it could be anywhere between 8% and 10%.

Revenues from the oil and gas sector were 41% lower in the January-to-July period than in the same period in 2022.

That means the government is having to borrow more. Government debt, currently at 14.9% of GDP, is set to rise.

I hope you now understand better what is happening in Ukraine. If not read about the fall of communism in USSR, it is the same.

A quick update on the planes destroyed in Sebastopol, along with a few radars. Ruzzia intercepted the missiles with an air defend radar, in the sense that the missiles destroyed the radar on its location.
