It’s going to plan - just not to his plan…

The Russian high command is in a difficult position and I don't expect them to do anything in regards to Ukraine but if Putin escalates elsewhere after Ukraine they might not have the option of doing nothing. The Russian military is not united behind Putin and as much as he'd like to be rid of some senior officer's their competence and loyalty from the rank's doesn't allow him to. Win, lose or draw in Ukraine the damage is done and that nalvany got a message out of prison tell's you control is slipping away albeit slowly for now.

BBC or Sky the other day reported that one woman was giving Russian soldiers flower seeds, telling them that when they die, something beautiful will grow from where they fall.

Canada has decided to help Ukraine:

- 4500 M72 missile systems
- 7500 hand grenade launchers
- Funding for modern satellite imagery to help the Ukrainian military track the movement of Russian troops. - Ukraine Army Information.

The problem isn't a shortage of equipment anymore it's getting it into Ukraine and training the Ukrainians to use it effectively which is becoming more difficult and why Vlad the prat is increasing his rhetoric attempting to dissuade us from getting the kit in there.

Well we finally got there. So most likely not true then.

Like I said, only when it suits you.

You may not care if what you are told is real, some people do.
It was a simple enough question that you, and others, were unwilling to answer.
You seem more interested in anti Russian ranting than actually figuring out if something is true or not.

I wonder what 30 tons of aid is as a percentage of munitions tonnage fired.

well there can be good reason to use Russia as a VON if buying certain digital media in rubles but if you are not doing that I dunno why he would tell you to

I'm not unwilling to answer, I just don't find it relevant and can't see why any one else would tbh, it's not like it evens the score or anything, like I said they've sent a truck load of stuff, big deal and truth doesn't only matter when it suits, imo it matters in context and in proportion to the circumstances that surround it in matters as serious as this

Have no idea but while in there he asked three people to do it. Said he had been asked by a "friend" . Just wants "everyone" to use a Russian address for VPN . So is there any harm to me ( selfish I know) if I did ?

Why not ask him? There may be a valid reason (I can’t think of one, and I could think of a reason why I wouldn’t, but not conclusively…).

That's not what I said and if all you're going to bring to the discussion is word games and pedantry then I've no interest in discussing it further with you

Zelensky: “Close the sky or give us aircraft.”

While speaking with media, President Zelensky called on NATO to close the sky over Ukraine. He asked how many more Ukrainians have to be injured for this decision to be made. If it can't be made, "give us planes,” he said. - Kyiv Independent.
