Congrats
The EU gives the green light to Ukraine, Moldavia to join the Union. The negotiations can begin.
As bonbon for Putin, Europe prepares the 14th sanctions package against Russia.

Es ist ein Zeichen an die Ukraine und Moldau: Die EU-Staaten haben sich auf den Beginn von Beitrittsgesprächen mit den beiden Ländern geeinigt. Bis zu einer Mitgliedschaft könnte es aber noch ein langer Weg sein.

Putin: 700,000 russian army personnel fighting in Ukraine
That’s huge.
If adding the supply personnel, non fighting troops Putin has deployed 100 percent the size of Russia army before the war.

By the end of this year, Russia is looking at 600,000 dead and wounded and over 20,000 equipment losses. Russias strategic goals have been defeated. They failed in March 2022 to take Kyiv, and they’re failing now to take the Donbas.

600K my ass

NATO cannot make Russia withdraw unless they give nuclear weapons to Ukraine.

Good to know

Russia FM Lavrov reveals the real reason why Russia goes to war, why Russia wants to annihilate Ukraine as nation and state.

“Without the coup d‘etat of 2014 Ukraine today would still live within 1991 border.”

It’s because Ukraine turns to the West. Not because Ukraine nazi oppressing poor russian speakers in Donbas or elsewhere.

In addition to the fact that drone wars actually began in Ukraine, cases of soldiers being taken prisoner when threatened with a drone attack began to be noted. Footage of the surrender of several soldiers of the Ukrainian reconnaissance sabotage group in the Zaporozhye direction has been published. It is worth noting that, apart from cartridges with a mesh for shotguns, nothing has been invented to destroy drones at close range.

Russia built tens of thousands of tanks in the Cold War. Where are the US's M60 tanks?

600K my ass

That’s widely considered an extremely conservative estimate. The British have Russian dead and wounded approaching 500K currently

looks like the Ukrainians are having another go at Kerch Bridge.

If this was me, I will attack somewhere between September and October
