It's fake news.
Yep!
That's what's been going on since February 24, 2022.
And it will go on until Russia quits or their economy tanks! Russia doesn't win in this one!
@@samuelreno-uq9yv Russia's economy is better now than it was before the war started, so THAT'S wrong.
@@superoldgamesaturday3277 Their largest energy resource company is running at a massive loss.
Russia's largest source of income is energy resources.
How long can Russia sustain that?
But you're right, their economy hasn't tanked, and probably won't.
That said, their highly vaunted professional army FAILED to decapitate Ukrainian political and military leadership within a few days of Feb 24 2022 ... around 75% of those troops are no longer capable of being in the fight (either dead or permanently injured).
So are they more or less likely to win now that they are using much less well trained and equipped troops?
Essentially if American right wingers got out of the way, and stayed out of the way (maybe they could go back to injecting bleach or 'bringing light into the body' or worrying about jewish space lasers) then Russia could be sent packing.

@@user-mz3in7vo5bRussia is just giving some naughty dreams to western europe
@@fademaydarkness1017 Hello Dimitri!
Russian propaganda at it´s best.
1) How many of the ("56" countries).. have sent soldiers to Ukraine? NONE!
2) What do you count into the number "56"
Well there is Hungary... - What mighty military aid have they provided? Training of MEDICS 😅
Malta - Treatment of 2 (TWO!!!) wounded Ukrainian soldiers.
Switzerland 1 (ONE) Mine clearance system
Oh God,,, if my village went to war and had support of those 3 countries the enemy would tremble.
So while you ADD anyone who gave the weakest possible aid to Ukrasine, you LIE, and didn´t mention who give aid to Russia... so Russia is not alone.
3) As Russia doesn´t publicly inform what they get, we know of:
IRAN - supporting with drones and training
NORTH-KOREA giving millions of shells
CHINA sending military equipment, buggy cars in all silence.
BELARUS - allowing Russia to use it´s territory, logistics support.
INDIA - 14 folding it´s oil import after Feb 2022 (economical support). India also sold spare parts to Russian military planes.
SOUTH-AFRICA sending shipment of unknown military equipment.
Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan (parts of Russia´s Collective Security Treaty Organization). Their role in the conflict unknown.
Myanmar sold weapons and spare parts to Russia.
Saudi-Arabia, on paper a western ally (no aid to Ukraine) but supported pressing oil prices up in a situation where it was crucial for Russia, ignoring US wishes.
So to claim that Ukraine fight with 56 allies, and IGNORING Russian allies, is a PURE LIE!
But you knew that already.
4) Ukraine was liberated 1991 from Moscow communist oppression! After that Ukraine has seen how much better things are in the west, and decided to NEVER AGAIN be a puppet of a dictatorship... that is the reason they fight until death.
5) When Russia started the INVASION of a free independent country (2014) 2022, Ukraine was ON IT´S OWN.
What weapons had they gotten from the west until Feb 2022?
- Anti tank weapons
- Rifles and ammunition
- Some bulletproof vests
Ukraine´s military was OUTDATED old Soviet era weapons, Russia had more modern version of everything, and all weapons in a 5-20 times larger amount.
Russian estimates were to take Ukraine (Kiev) in a few days and insert a puppet.
*** THEY WERE ON THEIR OWN
even western media thought Russia could take Ukraine in weeks or at most months.
Russia FAILED... it took weeks, and then Ukraine started to get weapons, as countries saw that they fought with everything they had.
In a few weeks/months Ukraine had gained OLD equipment from Europe and the US.
MONTHS into the war, Ukraine got real western equipment - artillery and later HIMARS... that changed the war.
6) Russia is in FULL WAR ECONOMY - companies produce equipment for the military. So Russia is in "120%".
How much has the US put in to support Ukraine? ~3% of it´s yearly MILITARY BUDGET.
So no, no one wants to be oppressed "liberated in Russian propaganda terms".
It’s funny how I seem to remember during the 2nd impeachment that every Democrat was saying Ukraine is the most currupt country in Europe. Now suddenly Zelensky is Winston Churchill in a designer jogging suit.
The corruption was a Russian aligned AG who was tossed out.
The second impeachment was for Jan 6th, genius. Good job "remembering" things you made up in your head.
Back in the early days of the Internet as a Ukrainian you couldn't sign-up to any western service due to security reasons. Now the same West decided to partner with Ukraine. Go figure 😅
Profiteers are making money, bro. Follow the money. 80% was soent in the YS and UK, not Kiev.

@@hi-lx7wrFeel the same way
And the US has lost hundreds of BILLIONS in wasted aid, much of which was skimmed off to bank accounts.
Bigguy gotta get his cut!
Most of the money goes to our military manufacturing companies to make new for our military and we send our old to Ukraine
The Grifter of Kyiv's bank account is loaded with billions of US dollars. Biden will spend any amount to keep Vloddy's mouth shut.

Truth.
Anyone who makes such comments is only dividing society and apart from that has no idea at all. You have the slightest clue what the annual US military budget is? Obviously not....
It may be truth that this money could end homelessness but that's no argument. Homelessness didn't just happen yesterday. The war in Ukraine and the aid to Ukraine have absolutely nothing to do with homelessness...
But they wouldn’t.
Could have decades ago, but when has the government cared, especially this administration?
@@fgm1197 Who said that the Ukraine war and the aid has to do with homelessness?
Ukraine has been losing from the start and they never had a chance. They need to negotiate for neutrality. Stop dying for the military industrial complex.
You're a clown. Russia has barely gained any ground after two years. Ukraine has made them suffer 500,000 casualties and they suffer 10,000 casualties for just taking small towns. The reason they gain ground is because Putin is using aggressive offenses that are extremely costly. 1000-1500 men are killed or wounded in a 24 hour period with these aggressive offenses. While it results in gaining territory it isn't sustainable long term
And Russia has been fighting for years, so what you talking about
No Sh!t!! They have been losing since the beginning! But script readers like yourselves get off and and make money off of people dying
don't be ridiculous.
when russia invaded, they took like 1/3 of the territory.
since then, Ukraine gained about half that territory back while russia gained almost no ground.
that's not losing, child.
it's only been the past 3 months or so that russia has made any solid advances.
Russia in 2 years now has about the same casualties the us had during the entirety of the Vietnam War (a 20 year war) 😂

Ukraine already lost about 20% of its territory to Russia as of last year, despite the billions in aid to Ukraine. New aid won't make any difference.
What major cities does russia occupy inside Ukraine that they didn't control prior to their 2022 invasion? You think they can even take Kharkiv? A city with a pre wartime population of 700K+ people? Russia has less than 50K troops in that region
That was an eventual given as Russia is much larger, better equipped and mote fighters. I commend the Ukrainian people for standing up to terror.

Agree.
But they ran out of weapons two years ago. Harmless washing machines being fire from catapults. Orcs are using Crossbows and shovels.
No supporter of Russia but you guys really dont known how war works.
These arms which will go to Ukraine now, will be used 2-3 montha down the line.
Facts
Yeah, they'll be used 2 to 3 months from now, but you forgot to add that they'll be used by some African warlords in some off the radar skirmishes that bought them from beards working as agents for people like Kolomoyskyi while he is "detention" eating filet mignon and congeal visits every hour by top shelf escorts.
To corrupt to even actually exist. Those are fake
Right. And "losing ground" isn't an indication of winning a war. What people don't do is check how many casualties Russia suffered gaining ground. 1000-1500 men killed or wounded a day is horrible and unsustainable, so gaining ground is irrelevant
@@giftedtheos Putin is mad. He wont stop at Ukraine.
Russia could win?...😂
If republicans continue to help them, probably.
Russia is definitely going to win unfortunately. There's no point in America sending anymore money to them. Unless another country steps in with their troops and weapons than Ukraine is done. It has nothing to do with the Republicans, they're just smart enough to see that Russia isn't going to stop and the sanctions haven't slowed Russia down a bit. What's it's like being a sheeple?
Russia been winning all along but our media did not want us to know....
Yeah obviously, why do you think we send aid to them Willy Nilly?
If the usa wasnt sending ukraine all the money and crap russia would of been done by now with them.. go russia
Maybe it’s time for peace talks.
Maybe? Why would Russia even consider it now? Putin's known all along what this was really about and the US overplayed it's hand. This kind of proxy war would've never been successful no matter how much money we were willing to waste. The truth needs to come out about Biden and his illegal dealings in Ukraine. The Grifter of Kyiv needs to be put it in his place.
That is not posible..Ukraine demands that Russia return everything it liberated.🤑
Zelenskyy is being controlled by the cia and can’t surrender even if he wanted to. Only thing that makes sense
There will never be peace talks because clown-idiot Zelensky said he "would NOT engage in peace talks with Putin, because he is a nobody"! Never underestimate a "nobody"!
Ukraine is not a viable country and the west region European side must be an autonomous of region Russia and the East region between river Dnieper and Russia boarder fully part of Russian territory.

😮 Ukraine has already lost 30% of land in the South East & North East 😮😮
Expensive military weapons doesn't mean anything without well trained troops to use them.
They were never winning
Ukraine never had a chance. They never lost any aid during that lull. The reality is most of the money has gone to Ukrainian Oligarchs, Bureaucrats and Ukrainian Pensions. The Ukrainian Azov Brigade started this war by shelling the Russian speaking regions giving the Russians the reason they wanted to go in. Simply, Ukraine doesn't have the people or the resources necessary to win. We could spend a Trillion in Ukraine but you cannot overcome the numerical advantage the Russia has.
what is fact is that Russia is losing soldiers and the longer the war prolong, the weaker Russia become.

Poland's president, just the other week, taunted UK that in a few years, Poland will surpass UK economically. Now, keep in mind, this was during the time that GOP leaders were 'holding up aid' before the big waste of $61B. So, considering that Poland has hundreds of kilometers of border directly WITH Ukraine, and so does Hungary, and Romania actually has TWO stretches of border, no one else could have delivered suitcases of cash to the comedian-in-chief while Congress was still sorting out an aid package?? Remember, the situation is DIRE (apparently). I am being sarcastic--again, during that 'dire' time, Poland's president taunted Great Britain telling them that his country would surpass them economically. Seems like that $61B could have been much better spent IN THE US...

@@mile_high_topher As one whose academic specialty has been relations between Turkey and my ancestral Greece, I am quite familiar with the numerous appeasements of the violent and expansionist Turks from Constantinople in 1955, to Cyprus in 1974, and to recent threats in the Aegean. It seems the US is quite okay with all that appeasement. You probably are okay with it as well.
@@johnsakelaris7 Try again, this time without the deflection. Letting Putin have Crimea emboldened him to invade the rest of Ukraine. Letting him have what he's already taken is going to do the same thing, again. Let's try to be smart and learn from the past, huh?
SHOCKING… not. So how much more do they want now?
so what the hell happened to the 61 billion!?
that was supposed to win the frikking war!
The money sent to fortify the defences went to someone's pocket. Ukraine admitted yesterday.
Ukraine is not winning no matter what but the profits are imposible to ignore.
Damn what happened to all the people that said Russia is the verge of collapse and will never win this war?
Shouldn’t have gave them nun it’s Russian land they finna get they shi back
We need to stop sending so much damn money over there
History recap -
*W. Bush - Putin invades former Soviet Georgia
*Obama - Putin invades Crimea
*Trump - Putin invades NOWHERE
*Biden - Putin invades Ukraine
Actually Crimea asked to join Russia to avoid the Ukrainian Civil war!
The Russian military-industrial complex is the most powerful in the world when it comes to production of major types of arms and military equipment
Only $13 billion is being used to acquire weapons. They need to be manufactured
If Russia takes back Ukraine as it has always been before 91 , people know already
Before 91? Ukraine was In the Soviet Union, and so was Russia. Ukraine has never been "russia"
@@ptrekboxbreaks5198 be honest with yourself, Ukraine was an extension of Russia during soviet times, basically Russian. Ukraine was Russian territory before 91.
@@shploonsk Russia isn't the Soviet Union.
@@ptrekboxbreaks5198 Ukraine has been part of Russia and for hundreds of years.
No, it's not like that. Ukrainians, Belarusians and Russians were one ancient state and occupied the area of modern Ukraine. All regions of Ukraine (except 3 near Poland before the advent of the Soviets were the Russian Empire. Lenin created this republic. After the collapse of the Soviets, Ukraine stole lands that not only belonged to them... for 30 years this state... These are the internal problems of the "ex-spouses"
We want our tax dollars back..........
