People r fighting for #Ukraine to get #German Leopard 2 series tanks, thinking it will turn the war upside down. #Israel/i Merkava series is one of the best ever produced and has melted like butter in the 2006 war due to the Ru man-portable anti-tank guided missile 9M133 Kornet.
NATO deepen its war involvement by deploying Airborne Warning & Control System (AWACS) surveillance planes to #Romania on Jan 17 to support #Ukraine over #Russia, offer advanced intelligence information on the Russian military activity & prolong the war.

Mighty Merkavas Fail In War Gone Awry: ‘Boom, Flames and Smoke’. Celebrated as one of the most heavily protected tanks in the world & the might of #Israel’s ground forces, the Merkava tanks seemed to become practice targets for Hezbollah anti-tank missiles

What the fall of #Soledar to #Russia is significant? Because it is the Kremlin's victory over 30 nations forming all @NATO intelligence services and military planners at #Ramstein #Germany, supplying the military equipment and conducting the war in #Ukraine.
It would have been insignificant if #Russia was fighting against #Ukraine only. Alas, the west has decided to push the Ukrainians to destroy their country rather than negotiate a peace settlement before the 24th of February and #Kyiv has accepted to sacrifice the country.
The list of the failure of the west to fulfil its commitments, verbal or signed, is significant and lengthy. #Ukraine is not in a position to force the west to rebuild the country, nor to accept Kyiv as an EU or NATO full member.

The #US is doing everything in its power to drag #China into an arms race to deplete its financial power, similar to what happened between the US and the Soviets, due to the severe recession the world will be facing in the next 2-3 years.
The #US managed to drag #Russia into an inevitable war in #Ukraine at the expense of not only Europe's economy but the world economy. Washington doesn't care coz it has the power to print dollars, while other countries need to pay back their debts in a currency they can't print.
However, #Russia is forced to invest more in its war against #NATO because it has no choice. The war in #Ukraine will end like Korea's war: no peace, no war, no agreement, as long as #Kyiv is ready to sacrifice itself.

#NATO Intelligence war against #Russia in #UkraineWar.

Russia Ministry of defense: 63 Russian servicemen dead as result of HIMARS missile strike at base in #Makiivka
#US doesn't want the war to end & will continue provoking #Russia - via #Ukraine - to respond to similar attacks & to keep a high level of military intensity. US Attacks inside Russia or against targets that could embarrass President Putin domestically will continue.
I believe #Moscow will observe -25 Celsius but #Kyiv will be very "Hot" due to the expected level of Russian response that we haven't seen before.

I think the #US is doing everything to see #Ukraine destroyed. Ukrainians should stop this war before it is too late.

#US #France #Germany #UK and #Ukraine are playing on #Russia's EGO when saying, "Putin is not ready for peace".
In fact, these countries have reached a dead end. They beg for a cessation of hostility & believe Putin will fall in the old trap & wld wants2 prove he is a negotiator.
#Ukraine cannot recover the 100,000 sqkm lost to #Russia. The west can continue supplying weapons and money, but tactical advances on the battlefield r insufficient to bring #Moscow weak to a peace talk.
The west is preparing more false promises to #Russia, as the #US did to the Soviet leaders and, like Merkel and Macron, followed with the Minsk agreement that aimed to prepare #Ukraine for the war and to confront #Moscow rather than negotiate and remain neutral.

Conflict of interest? Business deal with #Ukraine?
Smoking-gun email reveals how Hunter Biden introduced Ukrainian businessman to VP dad @Joebiden, the #US current President. nypost.com/2020/10/14/ema… via @nypost

Who controls #Ukraine? #Corruption at best
@Joebiden admittedly pressured Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko & PM Arseniy Yatsenyuk into getting rid of Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin by threatening to withhold a $1 billion US loan guarantee during a Dec 2015 trip to #Kyiv.

#Ukraine/Ukrainians should really listen to what @jensstoltenberg is saying:
If u lose, you won't be a NATO member. Ukraine has lost already 100,000 km2, how can #Kyiv ever join NATO? Stoltenberg is revealing that Ukraine is not due to join NATO ever.

Coz no NATO member will send large troops to #Ukraine for fear of a disproportionate reaction from #Russia;
Coz @vonderleyen told us today that Ukraine has lost 100,000 men;
How does NATO expect Ukraine to recover the lost territories? Crimea, Donbas, Kherson, #Zaporizhzhia?
Basically, NATO is asking #Ukraine to continue committing Seppuku/Harakiri without any perspective for the future.

If @ZelenskyyUa is asking for 1 Trillion to reconstruct the country, I fear he will be left alone very soon.
