Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion

So Medveded is saying by waging a hybrid war against Russia the West is coming closer to world war. Poor Russia they have been pressured into driving into Ukraine, occupying 3rd of their territory, killing, burning, destroying, pillaging, bombarding the hell out of them by the evil West.
Dont make them bombard Ukraine ffs, do you hear!! They didn't want to do it but they had to and instead of letting them do their thing there West is helping Ukraine thus coming closer to world war.

I get the impression Medvedev (who is 5'4) is doing the toughest talking because it allows him to stay in the good graces of the hardliners. I never previously got the impression he was one, but given the circumstances, he appears to have to talk this way to remain relevant.
 
Surely if we've learned anything it's that Russia most definitely can't out-produce the West in military hardware? Many European countries have significantly stepped up their defence spending as well.

If they couldn't before the war, they certainly can't now.

MH17: Three guilty as court finds Russia-controlled group downed airliner


Many of the victims' relatives believe if the world had reacted differently, and taken a tougher stance against Russia eight years ago, the invasion of Ukraine and the geopolitical instability that has followed could have been avoided.

Igor Girkin is one of those found guilty by the way.
 
If one country can out-manufacture 30 countries, we have a big problem
Yeah can't manufacture decent modern helmets, can't get the supply lines in a neighboring country to maintain the forces on the front line, can't find men and has to resort to conscription, can't build any industrial good that is of any relevance to the wider world, but suddenly Russia is a ammunition manufacturing genius.
 
Out-manufacture what? The Russians are not even capable of repairing their tanks and other hardware already in action for starters.
 
reports in Germany saying that Poland withheld information which has now come to the fore....... the rocket that landed in Poland they are saying was fired by Ukraine and it sounds like it wasn't fired to intercept a Russian rocket.

Sounds about right from German intelligence...

Amazing.

Do you have a source for that?
 
And the source they quote is:

"According to the Gazeta Wyborcza newspaper , there is clear evidence that the bullet came from the arsenal of the Ukrainian army."
 
But it's an c-300 what other reason for it to be launched other to intercept something ??
It’s stupid source that doesn’t even know that Ukrainian S300 doesn’t have surface to surface capabilities like modified Russian ones. In short it’s total nonsense that you can disregard for some sort of propaganda bs. If it was Ukrainian S300 and not Russian missile it was launched to intercept it. Also Ukrainian S300 missiles is programmed to self destruct after failing to intercept its target thus it must have been a faulty one then.
