Great work my friends 🇺🇦💪

How is the freezing of Russian assets going to change the battle lines
It won’t. But the money can be stolen to keep the grift going.
- 10% for the big man ?
Because $300bn can buy a lot of weapons... for Ukraine. 😏
@@TheMagicLemur - what, like the $61 billion did a couple of weeks ago ? 🤣
it will cut international investment in Europe/UK/USA reducing income of EU there by reducing the money available to buy weapons from the USA. So in the long run it will reduce military aid for Ukraine.
My brother was on RFA Olmeda in the Falklands war. He was 18. They will step up.
Excellent interview with Secretary of Defense!
II would imagine that it would be an administrative stupidity if the S.A.S. and S.B.S, were not already in Ukraine. Learning all that can be learned and helping out where appropriate.
Thanks to the German Chancellor, it’s probably the worlds worst kept secret. They definitely didn’t need that. They shouldn’t have to worry about allies shooting their mouths off placing them in the frame in addition to the enemy putting them in mortal danger
They must be there

They’re already there.
@@DarkCriimes - try to keep up, they're already in Moscow !
Foreign policy and military decisions need to be bipartisan. The alternative is giving foreign bad actors an opportunity to influence our internal politics to their advantage.
that is how the america has stumbled from one disaster to the next, no debate just keep starting wars
Better watch for flying shovels
The interview with Mr. Chaps was very misleading; In relation to the size of the country the UK (and US) support for Ukraine is much smaller than most EU countries and well below the EU average. Mr. Chaps should aim for the UK to reach the EU average and should encourage the US to do the same.
It is insulting, and factually incorrect, to suggest that countries like Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and the Czech republic are doing too little - in particular when coming from the UK.
Georgia protests are interesting - Russia is losing its grip everywhere.
Another attempted US Colour Revolution? Interesting? No, boring, repetitive and stupid.
Another US Colour Revolution? Interesting? No.
@@casteretpolluxNope - ain't no colour to it.
Plus even colour revolutions are better than poisoning underpants. 😅
USA and lackey UK are rotting from inside. UK has a 'little' Indian HIndooooo (what caste) PM. And a Pakistani Muslim Mayor of London. Biden is flooding USA with non-English speaking immigrants, who cannot learn science, cannot become engineers or scientists. Pretty much the same with UK. Germany is full of Mosques. France is full of... as is Belgium.
Meanwhile, Russia, China free from these, are growing stronger.
Protesting a law that will be pro- sovereignty for Georgia and will force all foreign agents/NGOs to disclose the sources of their funding. Why is that a bad thing? Why "protest" against that? The US has had such a law since 1938!
It's been clear for a good while now that we (Ukraine + allies) need two things that anyone exercising the Golden Rule would have done long ago -- (a) establish the shared goal in concrete terms, e.g. restore 1991 borders, and (b) extend the logistical envelope to Ukraine-allied stakeholders. The extra structure of extending the logistical framework could have mitigated the tragic outcome (Ukraine lives lost) of political performance idiocy. The last 7 months has been torture for those of us in the U.S. who care deeply about Ukraine. This is to say I want to see changes made so that we at the very least, smooth out the process for Ukraine's supply chain so they can know what is in the pipeline AND CAN COUNT ON IT.
The fact there is people that want the Ukrainians to be sad, crying, scared and running is ridiculous. The Ukrainians have the right to mourn how ever they want... why should Ukraine civilians not be allowed to have fun while being killed by Russian missiles.
- I agree entirely... after all, the Russians are having fun ?
Is there any evidence that the Russians are killing civilians? We saw what the Ukrainians did in Belgorod. They will soon lose Kharkiv for this. Are there any similar videos from Ukraine? Not fake ones, of course.
Ukrainian people are e joying life while the war goes on, because soldiers want them to do this. As soon as Ukrainian people get depressed they will want the war to be negotiated not won
Where's ur bleeding heart for all those people u killed in every war u guys fought?
Where are the F16's?
They're after the F15's 😂😂😂😂

@@stephenglover1818ok comrade.
Anyone can break us (here), we are not strong; we are Americans.
I’d also add that it’s a bit disingenuous to say that the U.S. aid has been lackluster to the point that Blinken’s visit creates bad optics. The U.S. has provided unbelievable amounts of ammunition, money and equipment already; not to mention the intelligence, targeting data, EW assistance AND the ongoing work by U.S. (and UK) spec ops to train Ukrainian forces.
Could we- and should we- do more? Absolutely. And it’s true that a segment of the Republcan party opposes it…but it’s hardly true that the U.S. has failed to deliver such that Blinken’s visit appears “off”
Thanks
Thank youvfor bringing news from Georgia! Please keep having updates from there for us, the people of Tiblisi and the rest of their country need to know we are watching
ATACMS have not made any impact on the battlefield so if Russia is or is not shooting them down its not of importance. The Stormshadow did make an impact making Russia withdraw its Navy until Russia captured one and can now shoot them down, one would assume in a few weeks ATACMS will be the same.
they shot down 10 today and the videos of the SAM's taking them down are on telegram
It's pronounced "Fitzo".
Fico is pronounce “Feetsow’
Much as I love this pod, the interview was a disappointment.
Grant Shapps was allowed to get away with claiming the UK was giving more than other European countries. If he meant in total amounts of aid, Germany gives more. If he meant more in terms of per cent of GDP, 19 Europeans countries (including Germany and France) give more. (See Kiel Ukraine Support Tracker)
The big question I'd like asked is, if Ukraine is so important to our future security, why not prioritise aid to Ukraine over future defence spending for our own forces?
Simply Ucraine has nothing to do with our security. In Greece for example we prefer Putin than fon de Leyen ..by far

TBF, two S-400 launchers did technically intercept the ATACMS along with the "Grave Stone" phased-array radar, 3 Sukhoi-27 fighters, and possibly a Mig-31 interceptor fighter along with the support warehouse. I would pose that launching the S-400 regiment's fire control radar, amongst other things, is not the best way of intercepting ATACMS but...

BUDAPEST, January 16. /TASS/. The West’s military assistance to Ukraine is senseless and only leads to more casualties, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said.
"It [the conflict in Ukraine] has no military solution," he told a news conference after talks with his Hungarian counterpart, Viktor Orban. "The Ukrainian army is no longer capable of matching Russia blow for blow."
According to the Slovak prime minister, the situation is unlikely to change even if military support for Ukraine continues. "In three years, we will be standing here and stating that the 50 billion euro (the EU plans to allocate as assistance to Ukraine - TASS) is a total loss, that each party [to the conflict] has lost 100,000 more troops and that neither of them has made any progress. Russians will go on controlling Donetsk and Lugansk; they will not budge, certainly not from Crimea. Russia’s negotiating position will only improve," he said,
At the same time, he said that as a Slovak he is grieved to see Slavs kill Slavs because of the geopolitical interests of some forces in the West, who are behind this conflict in Ukraine. These forces, in his words, twice banned the Kiev authorities from striking a peace agreement. He called for letting common sense prevail and stopping the exploitation of Ukraine to weaken Russia.
"The Russian economy is chugging along, the ruble is staying stable, Russia is becoming self-sufficient, Russian energy companies are reporting various record-breaking contracts for the export of energy to such countries as China and India," Fico said.
He said that he planned to meet with his Ukrainian counterpart, Denis Shmygal, in Uzhgorod on Wednesday. "We continue to insist that we will only provide [Ukraine] with humanitarian assistance but will not send any weapons, as weapons cannot help resolve the problem in Ukraine," he added.
More misinformation from our favourite dickbot.
Shapps sounds like a political hack. I hope Ukraine's survival doesn't depend on him.

Great episode
Czech President Petr Pavel spoke in favor of halting hostilities in Ukraine and starting negotiations on the post-war arrangement in an interview with Sky News TV channel.
"It is necessary to stop the war and start discussing the future [post-war] order," the president said when asked whether Ukraine should now start negotiations with Russia and stop hostilities.
Pavel believes it is "naive" to imagine that Kiev will be able to regain territory taken by Russia in the foreseeable future. "We have to be realistic," he said. The parties to the conflict should reach a compromise in resolving the situation during negotiations after the ceasefire, he noted. "There should be a compromise [worked out], but not without one consent of Ukraine, Russia and the countries that will guarantee this agreement," the president stressed.
He noted that NATO cannot deploy soldiers in Ukraine. This would mean a conflict between Russia and the North Atlantic Alliance. "No one in Europe wants this conflict," Pavel said.
No one in Europe wants this conflict, but they have it whether they like it or not. As for being realistic, the man sounds as though he is a follower of the appeaser John Hersheimer.
I'm Czech and I'm highly suspicious of this interview. We're gathering ammunition for Ukraine and Pavel was a spokesman for that initiative. There's nothing in Czech news to suggest Pavel has changed his position so radically.
A leaked slide U.S. Navy briefing slide reveals that China's shipbuilding capacity is 232 times greater than the United States. Specifically, Chinese shipyards have a manufacturing capacity of roughly 23,250,000 million tons, whereas U.S. shipyards have less than 100,000 tons.18 Sept 2023

On May 16, the Russian Ministry of Defense shared the video that confirmed the precision strike in Ukrainian rear. According to the Russian military officials, Russian Iskander missile destroyed the command post of the 302nd air defense brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The strategically important military base was hidden next to an agricultural enterprise on the edge of the forest area near the village of Staraya Vodolaga.
The Russian Ministry of Defense summed up the results of the attack. Ukrainian losses reportedly included a military warehouse with ammunition. Losses in manpower included about 50 Ukrainian servicemen.
According to unofficial reports, in total, 35 Ukrainian officers inside the headquarters and 20 more servicemen who guarded the building from the outside were eliminated.
The number of military vehicles seen in the area confirmed that the destroyed target was an important military facility. As a result of the strike, the centralized air defense control system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Karhkiv region was destroyed.
Russian precision strikes are pounding Ukrainian military facilities non stop. Amid the ongoing Russian advance in the Kharkiv region, the range of Russian artillery shelling, drone, missile and bomb strikes is expanding, complicating the military operations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Basically we have Nato backed Ukraine hitting Russian rear targets every once in a while with a fraction of the firepower Russia hits Nato backed Ukraine with daily and somehow the odd PR success of a missile getting through is game changing... No it isn't, the Russians have a vastly superior force and firepower advantage and always has the escalatory dominance over the battle.
Vasty superior 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Ukraine has dominated the Black Sea without a navy and is exporting grain without slave lands permission. Russia has a tiny GDP and is a tadpole in a big pond ,it’s going down count on it comrade. Look what happened to Hitler in WW2. A 2 trillion GDP is no match for a 40 trillion GDP which the free world has ,its simple math. Russia is just another North Korea which not many are interested in ,except China who will make Russia a vassal state.
Reuters - "EU Commissioner for Values and Transparency Vera Jourova said on social media platform X, 'it had also banned Russian funding of EU media, non-governmental organizations and political parties.'
so, it's okay for the West to ban Russian funding but not vice versa ?
Look at it from r's view, they see things, in nato are relaxed, this is easy, a breeze, it's no stress keeping r back. That in itself probably frustrates the furuer as he's still looking to justify his actions to his public. It's an incredibly weak position. He's not far from running out and we can only imagine he's done an audit so to fact check what's left in stock. An example is losing 100 flying things would create the same black sea result in he's frightened to sail as will he to fly
Anyway, love the coverage every day . Slava Ukraine
Ukraine was historically the munitions and missile production hub for the Soviet Union. Surely it makes sense to establish new production facilities in Ukraine... which longterm would give Ukraine economic recovery and become the munitions hub for wider Europe and NATO.
It was 30+ years ago.
They sold or destroyed everything
@@user-ee6nb9ec6v I understand that. However, the discussion was about having to build new factories and facilities as well as having sufficient employees. It makes more sense to do this in Ukraine surely?

Finally, look how defense budgets of Ukraine getting swallowed by it's cirruption lelf to the northern front crumbling these days - the Ukrainians cannot be trusted with any funds, if west want to support it - it should send materials only and even then most of such would be stolen and re-sold on black market.

The life of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico, who has survived an assassination attempt, is out of danger, Slovak Deputy Prime Minister and Environment Minister Tomas Taraba said.
He told the BBC that the surgery was successful and the prime minister is not in a critical condition.
Fico was wounded in a shooting incident that happened after a government meeting in the city of Handlova in the western part of Slovakia. He was hospitalized in a serious condition, with wounds in a limb, the chest and abdomen. The shooter was detained. According to the Slovak mass media, he is a 71-year-old writer Juraj Cintula, who carried out the assassination attempt on Fico over disagreed with the government’s policy.
Fico adheres to a principled position on Ukraine, advocating an immediate ceasefire and peace talks. His government, which took office in October 2023, has halted military supplies to Kiev, but provides humanitarian assistance. The prime minister speaks out for normalizing relations with Russia.
in short: he is a Russian stooge.

not really. If Baltics are so afraid to get invaded by Russia - why sending their troops and not asking for doing so from Germany and Belgium instead?
Nobody in the west truly wants to see Ukraine have to give up territory to Russia. However, this last Russian offensive has been going on unabated since the beginning of winter. Russia is digging in for a long war and the risk of Ukraine running short of munitions again is too great. It's time to start thinking like the Finns did in WW2. Survival is its own victory. What we need to do is figure out an off ramp to negotiations, how to secure Ukraine's borders, and keep Russia out of Ukrainian affairs once and for all.
