Correct -I don't think the future involves manned tanks. Warfare is changing, and the fact that a $10 million tank can be taken out by a $500 drone makes me think that the Russians are rethinking their battlefield strategy. This is especially true on the level fields of Ukraine where a drone can spot a tank from 25 miles away and a drone operator can hit it from that distance as well.

makes me think that the Russians are rethinking their battlefield strategy

 

Makes you think.......... The facts being that this strategy has been in place for a long time already and certainly not only the Russians.

 

Ukraine has become the world's largest producer of key military-use drones, the country's defense minister said.
"We've become the biggest drone manufacturer in the world, drones of tactical and strategic level," Rustem Umerov said during a Sunday press conference at Ukraine's "Year 2025" forum.
Tactical drones support smaller-scale battlefield actions, often at close ranges, by gathering intelligence and supporting strikes, either as the munition or by providing targeting data.

This was a foregone conclusion, about time he's getting to realize just what a liar Putin is.

 

Trump 'very angry' with Putin over ceasefire negotiations

Donald Trump has said he is "very angry" and "pissed off" with Russian President Vladimir Putin after weeks of attempting to negotiate a ceasefire in Ukraine.

In an NBC News interview, the US president said he was angry with Putin for attacking Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's credibility, and threatened to impose a 50% tariff on countries buying Russian oil if he did not agree to a ceasefire.

"If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine, and if I think it was Russia's fault - which it might not be... I am going to put secondary tariffs... on all oil coming out of Russia," he said.

Didn't seem particulary insane to me. I've been on worse exercises than that.

 

As for the numptie showing a white light on his face at minute 15, what the **** was he thinking. Waste of time driving without lights if the passenger is lit up like a street lamp.

Zelenskyy is an expired president. Useless similar to an expired Thai visa.

At 2.01 we see ammo being loaded into a van marked with first aid crosses  - not sure they meant to keep that in ! It is a war crime ;

 

Misuse of Protective Symbols – Article 38 of Additional Protocol I prohibits the improper use of recognized protective emblems, such as the Red Cross or Red Crescent, which are meant exclusively for humanitarian and medical services.

Oh the irony. Speculating on a war crime that is in no way as the factual cases committed by Russia. Pure pro Russian propaganda from you again. How sad. The real reason for posting the clip surfaces.

Mat Whatley - Keir Starmer’s peacekeeping plan for Ukraine won’t work - THE SPECTATOR

 

https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/keir-starmers-peacekeeping-plan-for-ukraine-wont-work/

 

 Critics argue this approach is insufficient. Starmer has warned Putin will breach any deal without security guarantees. Yet history indicates otherwise. As a senior manager with the EU Monitoring Mission in Georgia following Russia’s invasion of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, dialogue was soon established with the Russians and a formal monthly meeting schedule was established. Within this mechanism, the Russians remained disciplined, ensuring their forces respected agreed boundaries.

As head of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe mission in Donetsk, I saw the challenges and limitations of the Minsk ceasefire agreements. Though far from perfect, Minsk II significantly reduced the conflict’s intensity.

Another tragic anniversary of one of Russias atrocities. We must all remember when this happened and the horrific images that surfaced, I certainly do and that was a defining moment for me in 100% support for Ukraine which will continue.

 

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy

Three years ago, our warriors liberated Bucha from the Russian occupiers. And the world saw what the Russian occupation truly is: people killed in the streets, people tortured, graves in the yards of ordinary houses.

Since then, no one in the world can say they do not know what Ukraine is defending. Ukraine is fighting for the lives of its people. It is fighting to ensure that no one, ever again, does on our land what the Russian occupiers did.

Eternal memory to all those whose lives were taken by the Russian war. Eternal gratitude to all our people who are defending Ukraine.

Normally i dont or try not to get into politics of another country.

But i felt i had to reply your comment as a person who just came back for a 2 week rest from the war.

Well been with ukrainian soldiers from high to low ranks or normal soldiers.. being with ukranian civs.. 

This is something i can tell you right now Zelensky will win easily any election in ukraine. Also dont forget he said 'dont send me a plane to escape but send me more ammo' i dont think there are many leader in the world can say that bravely. People in ukraine are really ok with him. Of course small problems but every country has small problems.. when you compare zelensky and putin... well i think we all know the answer.. lol

I know you probably find or create an answer to this but its only because you feel you need to.. so whatever your or other 3-4 russians in this site reply i will just ignore. 

 

I have 1 week to go back to fight..

He's going to be an expired human being if he isn't careful. Perhaps he has a U boat moored in Odessa with enough fuel to get to Argentina, and all his gold on board.

The idea of using troops from a nation that openly supported one side has to be the worst idea ever imaged up in war history. What happens if Ukrainians dressed as Russians attack the Brits- will they call on NATO then?

Starmer proves himself more incompetent by the day.

Most probably you are right. This is ok if you want this war to continue forever.
But now it is time to sign legal agreements to stop the war. Any legal agreement must be signed by persons who are authorized to do so by the law. This is why the supreme Z leader Vladimir P. don’t want to sign anything with the expired president.

Yes, you are right. Therefore, it is very strange that the powers of the president in Ukraine are not extended in case of war. Ukraine had a lot of time (since 2014) to pass the necessary laws in parliament. However, they did not do this. This is their mistake that they will have to correct. 
Vladimir Putin studied law at the University of St. Petersburg (1970-1975). As a lawyer, he will not sign legally incorrect documents.

He will not sign because he can't afford peace.

so.. interesting..

putin studied law ( you say).. great.. btw lets remember hes KGB agent. 

then i have a very simple innocent question. i really dont know but probably as a russian you may know.. 

what the russian law says about elections? how many times a president can elected? does it have a limit or unlimited. Did putin announced himself like xi? as you know xi announced himself as the leader of china till he dies.. 

 

now some questions you may not answer. i dont mind. 

is it normal that putin can be the president of russia forever? is it normal to call him leader? why you cannot call him a president.. 

how is the life in thailand and russia? where you see more freedom.. democracy? then why you choose to live in thailand?! there are lot of questions but it is kind of getting personal so i think no need to go there but i think all understood the point already.. 

 

i will be honest with you.. sorry. in my opinion you are lost. living in thailand but praying for putin and russia.. (same for other russians posting here) in your heart you want freedom.. comfort.. no funny things.. not afraid of your shadow.. not afraid of what you say.. not afraid of what you do.. you see a world totally different than russia where things are normal.. but you are in denial psychology.. i dont know man lot of things going on about you and other russians in this forum..

 

i do understand and respect trying to protect your nation and president but at some point.. you need to be objective.. the problem is.. you guys cannot.. and when someone comes up with something opens your eyes.. you come up with something totally funny. thats the point where there is no point of argument. this posting and replying is going to that point.. 

 

im sorry man i really dont know what to say more to you... sad

 

also im feeling like we are going out of the real topic.. so... i will not reply you anymore about this

Rubbish. Britain had a general election during WW1, which was far more serious than Ukraine.

Been much said on this forum about that particular subject. One wonders if you know much about Thailand then. Perhaps you should stick to telling us how the Ukrainians are winning and Zelensky is a great leader ( Kursk for instance ).

Soooo, tell us how keen Zelensky is to sign. He has more to lose than Putin by signing. In his heart he probably knows he is a marked man if he accepts anything short of a full Russian withdrawal.

[Mavideol]

this is not a decision a dictator would make if he REALLY was looking for peace and/or ending the war, Trump the master of the NO deal got played, what else to expect for these  two "luna ticks" 555
