Ukraine industrialized? For where? What industries does Ukraine have? Ukraine is industrialized and they are always begging the US for aid and military hardware. Japan and Germany had a massive military industrial complex, they did not beg anyone for military equipment. Germany conquered most of Europe, japan conquered most of south east Asia including China, and you are comparing with Ukraine that is always begging everyone for help. Germany also almost defeated Russia if not for massive military aid from the US.

You are a poor student of history.

The largest airplane ever built the Antonov An-225 was built by Ukraine. They built a large part of the USSR nukes during the cold War.
In its economic history, Ukraine has evolved first from an agricultural to an industrialized, and then to a service-oriented country. Major industries include coal, electric power, machinery, chemicals, food processing, woodworking,
Please read a book for once. The fact that they are not in the same level as Germany doesn't mean they are not industrialized.

Nealy annihilated? grin grin Lmao. You're just regurgating the Lamestream media bullshiit.

There is a 40 mile long Russian convoy that has been sitting comfortably on the outskirts of Kiev for weeks now, doing practically nothing. If the Russians wanted to pound Kiev to look like Aleppo, it won't even take long for it to happen. But no, they didn't do it cause the main reason they are there is two fold.

One, if the talks didn't go as planned, the order to take Kiev will then be given.

Secondly, the presence of that convoy keeps the main Ukrainian troops stationed in Kiev bogged down and prevented from resupplying their troops in the other besieged strategic cities. For your information, the same Ukrainian forces you guys said are advancing are now blowing up brides in the outskirts of Kiev to prevent the Russian advance. If you are blowing bridges, what does it mean? It means you are retreating and defending.

You have to understand this war. Is purely strategic. Russia is just toiling with Kiev to force Zelensky into talks of compromise because once Kiev is gone, he has lost his presidency for sure. Hence you see him now agreeing to some of the terms demanded by Russia while the talk is still ongoing. cool

Whomever tells you Russia is losing this war is an slowpoke. grin

40 mile long convoy siting undisturbed grin grin grin

Reports I read online said they moved forces to the donbass region, hence the withdrawal of the troops. What they did initially was to encircle a lot of cities and towns where Ukraine has a lot of forces, to prevent them from being able to send reinforcement to the donbass region. That helped them in the cleaning up of Mauripol. They were moving from street to street, house to house. That takes a lot of time to do.

U get time woh, no matter how much u explain, even with plain evidence they would not listen.. Someone on twitter is actually combing through the "video" & photo evidence of military equipments destroyed or captured by Ukraine...Over half of d claims are wrong, some na even Ukrainian weapons sef attributed to Russians

Good moves ,USA is giving their citizens some sòoth of palliatives to cushion the effects of increase in gas ,while putin is doing all his best to destroy the wealth of his country billionaires like the Chelsea owner Abramovic and other oligarchs yet some clowns here is supporting a murderer who is killing his relatives nearby in the hope of getting at the faraway west and America ��, this clowns forgot that the world is a global village. Even in smallest way this war will affect the economy of the world .but clowns on this forum with the knowledge of the kind of useless government we have here, who will rather increase the sufferings of masses and blame it on the war will rather support putin ,well the impending sufferings in this country will surely reset una brain ..a murderer is killing human beings unjustly for a useless reason ..human beings, he is not capable of creating and u guys are supporting him, any one who kills or support a murderer have lost his humanity..as u kill others so u are killing yourself slowly

Are u speaking of morality? Anybody dat kills is a killer. Anybody dat supports a killer in any form is also a killer.
Ukrainian soldiers kill Russians, dey are killers! EU,US, and d rest including u support killer Ukraine.

Does morality support killing of any form?

LOL... How ignorant. Russia doesn't have the resources? LMAO... Keep believing western propaganda to your detriment. Know this, similar to Nigeria, Russia is one country that has a lot of natural resources. If you meant money, check the exchange rate of the Russian Ruble to the dollar & see that the Russian Ruble is gaining against the US Dollar after the initial effect western sanctions had on it. Check it for yourself.

Lastly, what do you mean Russia doesn't have the numbers? Lol. Are you aware that Russia has up to 3 million soldiers combined actively & reserved? Check that again for yourself. Cheers.

Stuck according to the Lamestream media. cool

Why didn't the Uki forces pick them out as easy target since they are stuck? Rather, the dread of the same convoy you said are stuck is the reason Kiev forces are blowing up bridges recently. When a fighting force is blowing up bridges, what does it mean? It mean they are retreating and preventing the advance of the opposing forces. Is that simple.

Lmao such nonsense Sha.

So I guess all the weapons Ukraine have either captured or which Russian military abandoned for fear of being killed plus the ones various nations have been sending to Ukraine have all been demilitarized?

Do you even read what you type before posting at all?

So right now the NATO nations that are sending weapons to Ukraine are not building their defense mechanisms for Ukraine?

You are the one allowing childish emotions beguile your common sense

Lmao. You're truly a kid. cool

So you expect Ukriane to win the war with stinger and manpads? grin

What That the west is building ukraines defense mechanism by sending them stingers and manpads? I don't know you're this ignorant. These weapons are like toothpicks in the midst of a vast forest with different trees. There are so much more important equipments that makes up the military capabilities of a nation, that is what the Russians have destroyed in Ukraine as confirmed by the Ukrainian government.

There is a reason Zelensky is asking NATO to give him planes, long range air defenses, and a no fly zone, etc.

Stop being emotionally blinded.

The words withdraw and retreat have completely different meanings unfortunately some monikers think that those words are interchangeable. In conflicts and war, after a segment of the invaded territory is overtaken/captured some of the Army moves on to try to capture the next segment but a substantial amount of that same Army stays behind to occupy and control each conquered segments until the conflict or war ends.

Why would Russia fight to overtake a city then completely withdraw, moving on to the next city, allowing Ukrainians to regain control of that same city? How would they ever win the war? What sense does that make? Absolutely none.

The Russian forces haven’t withdrawn from Irpin, they have retreated.

Methodical warfare? US military personnel are baffled? You’re joking right?
US intelligence has never been baffled by Russia, they accurately predicted the exact time that Putin would invade Ukraine even as Putin repeatedly denied it. Remember?
On Thursday March 31st, Putin signed a decree ordering 134,000 new conscripts. That news comes straight from The Kremlin. The Russian Defense Ministry also admitted that conscripts have been used to fight since the Ukrainian invasion. Russia is already using conscripts in this war while the US has not drafted one single soldier since June of 1973 yet you imply that Russian forces are superior to the point that they baffle US military officials?

You make me laugh much more than the “armchair analysis” that you claim to laugh at.

The city of Kiev is a mere 829 square kilometers (about the size of Chicago) but after 38 days the might RA hasn’t managed to capture it. It’s clear that the RA is struggling but Putin’s fans will tell you that particular failure is part of Russia’s brilliant strategy. cheesy
