Russia will not stop with Ukraine

An autocratic regime like Russia can prioritize expansion of defense industries over economic well-being to sustain their military actions in Ukraine

The time that is being spent by Russia inside Ukraine is also time that we have to get our industrial base to where it needs to be

Russia now is increasingly reliant on importing both equipment & technology, notably from #china

US General: 'Russia will not stop with Ukraine unless they're stopped in Ukraine'

An autocratic regime like Russia can readily prioritize the expansion of its defense industries over economic well-being to sustain their military actions in Ukraine, along with help from Iran and North Korea, said Lt Gen. Steven L. Basham, U.S.

Eighty years ago, millions of Ukrainians fought for Nazism to lose forever. But today, Ukrainians are again opposing the evil that has been reborn, has come again, and wants to destroy us again. An army of monsters who kill, torture, and wipe out peaceful cities and villages from the face of the earth. Evil, the name of which is Russian fascism. Abbreviated as the Russian Federation.

On the Day of Remembrance and Victory over Nazism, remembering millions of Ukrainians who, together with other peoples, fought and won, we believe and bring a new day of a new victory closer, when the expulsion of the Nazis from Ukraine.

It's impossible to deny that Russia has its own versions of Nazi ideology. The way to stop Nazism remains the same. Only joint efforts can be effective.

Russia puts every country that doesn’t submit to its terror on its "list."

As long as Russia exists in its current form, no country is safe unless it is a pawn or accomplice of a terrorist state. Part 1.

Together we must stop the Russian war of aggression. Never again is now.

Speaker Mike Johnson survived an attempt to oust him by nutjob Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The way I see it, Democrats propped him up this time in return for letting aid to Ukraine come to a vote and pass in the House of Representatives.
Saving Ukraine is easily worth having Johnson as a figurehead speaker for a few more months.

Ukraine constantly inventing new ways to sink Russian ships

The spokesperson did not elaborate on the new methods, but on the same day that the Mangust-class patrol boat was sunk, Russia's Defense Ministry published a video of what appeared to be a Magura equipped with an anti-aircraft missile.

Ukraine previously destroyed several Russian ships with a Magura V5 multi-purpose sea drone, including a landing ship Caesar Kunikov, a Sergei Kotov patrol ship, high-speed Serna and Akula landing crafts, and a Tarantul-class Ivanovets missile corvette.

Ukrainian forces also partially damaged the Russian military ship Ivan Khurs using a Magura V5 drone.

Military intelligence: Ukraine constantly inventing new ways to sink Russian ships

Andriy Yusov said Russia has been taking steps to counter the attacks including trying to hide ships and build protective barriers, but said HUR was "finding new ways to show that HUR and Magura work extremely efficiently."

Ukrainian pilots made a spontaneous landing in the middle of a field near a young boy proudly waving the Ukrainian flag upon their return from a mission. The boy, who regularly greeted them with the national flag as they flew overhead, received a surprise when the airmen landed to deliver him candies, gifts, and heartfelt greetings.
