Ukraine in all honesty doesn't need tanks despite the fact that they have received some from the US.... What they need is highly mobile and effective weapons and they have got in now in good number hence the withdrawal of Russia from many parts of the country


Javelin, starstreak, switch blade and drone are what they need and that is what they have got

These are hardware that can be handled by anybody and is less susceptible to attack u like tanks

Noticed Russia no longer flies fixed wings attack helicopter and planes around the country because of star steak... They do the bombing with strategic missiles from Russia and crimea

I will regard Putin as the zombie of the century if he believes that US,UK and other allied nations are not making serious war with him in secrecy.Putin intended to overrun Urkraine at the speed of light but the speedy progress he made in few days of war was suddenly slowed down and Urkraine began to retake places earlier overrun by Russia.A word is enough for the wise.


They are taken places from Russia even in the Don ass region

Everybody except for the USA has learned from Afghanistan, mindlessly sending weapons with no accountability might not be the best thing, those weapons could end up in Putin's hand as this zelensky guy sooner or later won't be able to stay defiant.

Make una read na.

Johnson is saying the UK can’t send some
Of their tanks to Ukraine because the Ukrainians are trained to use soviet tech. Give them US M1 Abrams tanks and it’d take weeks or months to bring them up to speed.

What they are doing is pushing nearby NATO countries that have Russian tanks to hand over these tanks to Ukraine, then the UK and US will backfill these transfers with more modern Western equivalents.

The British have given Ukraine top quality anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons that have kill thousands of russian soldiers. They’re even sending anti-ship missiles. So all this talk about Ukraine being ‘abandoned’ is silly nonsense.

Gas-for-Rubles deal didn't work.Russia's foreign reserve is frozen and her bond payments in the like manner so Russia is neck-deep in default of foreign debt.All that Russia thought was that,gas-for-Rubles deal would make up for her nosediving Rubles.Russian economy is badly hit and Russia is writhing in pain like a snake cut in many places while Putin is bearing and grinning it.

Rubles for gas will work eventually when the west start freezing to death, gas prices have already sky rocketed it is affecting me personally already and all other Europeans and American ordinary citizens. Every country is debt including the USA and Britain. Putin wants Rubles for his gas full stop. So you said... I am quite confused with this your snake explainations speak to me in simple languages i can understand please.

What Ukraine really need are defensive equipments not offensive... If tanks can win wars, then Russia should have won since...we r no longer in the ww2 era.

Its better dey supply Ukraine equipments that will destroy Russian tanks, bring down Russian jets and sink their ships...I really don't know y they've actually refused to supply anti-ship missiles anyways,.. Time no dey again oo sad

U.S Delta force, British SAS and Swedish special forces soldiers have been in Ukraine (Mariupol) since the start of the war. Even though they said otherwise.

Why did gas-for-Rubles deal fall like a pad of cards?And does buying gas from Russia imply that there is no war in secrecy?
So indirectly the Germans are feeding the Russian war machine....

In modern warfare, tanks and APCs aren't tools that are much necessary, seeing how drones and other missiles hit and roast them like paper..
It better to gift Ukraine smart air defense systems, killer drones and precision munitions than to send them tanks.

It's safer to rely on Harry Maguire to defend you than rely on USA and Western allies/propagandists especially when you have nothing to offer them
guy if I show you some videos and pictures of what Ukrainian soldiers are going thru, you go begin to weep for them and curse their leaders. humans shouldn't endure such. and yet western media is lying that they are winning. This is exactly how Pakistan media kept telling their population that they are winning in their war with India till they lost their country and signed surrender documents.

I'm not talking about eventual happenings here but current happenings.Read with an open mind I was clear enough.
Re: UK And Germany Won’t Send Tanks To Ukraine by plaindealer: 6:55am On Apr 12, 2022
The British PM and the West, in general, know exactly what is going on on the ground-based on their own intelligence gatherings and conclusions, this is not a tank for tank battle and the devastation and loss the Ukrainian forces dash Putin did not happen because of tank battle with the Russians, they effectively used MANPADS, INLAWS, Turkish drones, American switchblades, British Martlet missile and British Starstreak SAM to disable and disrupt Russian operations, they drove the Russians out of their towns and citiess with thse weapons, no tanks or artillery.

Yes, the right thing for Ukraine to do is to make such demands per whatever they can lay their hands on, but they've been successful so far with the tools and equipment the West provided so far.

Russia is not doing anymore face to face or soldier to soldier battles, they've suffered massive losses and most of their troops abandoned their equipment and ran basically because of poor morale, lack of any will to fight, lack of fuel, and even food.

Most of the fighting o the Russian side is firing missiles from inside Russia into Ukraine so tanks can not do much. They've been able to defeat Russia on the ground with what they have at the moment.

Putin is at the moment desperate, he's a mad man with nothing to lose since his back is against the wall, he knows the end for him is near and for sure, his country is heading back to the stone age so the only option is to take Ukraine down with him.

He'll destroy a major chunk of Ukrain and depending on the level of war crimes and atrocities committed going forward, the west could step in based on humanitarian grounds to protect innocent and defenseless civilians.

The West doesn't care too much about the destruction in Ukraine because they have more than enough money to rebuild Ukraine including using Russia's money seized by the west, the main goal is to crush Russia to the ground which they are successfully doing.

Tanks can not do much at the moment., there are better and more effective tools on the table.
Re: UK And Germany Won’t Send Tanks To Ukraine by plaindealer: 7:00am On Apr 12, 2022
Ukraine did not use tanks to decimate these Russian tank convoys, they used low tech MANPADS and armed drones, they are more effective against the Russians, this is why the West is sending tens of thousands of all manner of MANPADS and millions ammunition rounds to Ukraine.

Re: UK And Germany Won’t Send Tanks To Ukraine by Obafavour(m): 8:09am On Apr 12, 2022
Zelenskyy is yet to be wise. He thinks the west are in true love with him.

USA seize this opportunity to boost their economy, one million barrel of oil per day, while ukrainian economy is down drastically.

After this weapon boris said he's going to send, we shall see maybe ukraine will still nt suffer loss.

Though Zelensky was a bit political naive regarding the expectant help from NATO member countries, ukrainians have done pretty well in chasing the invaders away. I am astonished .

At the end of the day, Ukraine has the upper hand and Russia looks like a teddy bear. I am shocked at the turn of events
