Mister, I've gone beyond all these fooleries above.
Ah ha!!!
You lots are just hell bent on forcing us all to reason like a fool.

OhMyG0d:
The only thing holding Russia back from leveling Ukraine is brotherhood.
The way you will beat someone from your family will be different from how you will beat someone from another family. Ukraine-Russia-Belorussia are brothers literally.
Besides, it's not a war but a military campaign.

You see, the only thing holding NATO and US back from confronting Russia directly rather than using Ukraine as a front, is because of some weapons that they have no answer to in Russian's arsenal. No one want a Poseidon torpedo, Sarmat, ISKANDER, Buresvetnik, zircon, avangard, kinzhal etc facing their countries. Besides, no one knows yet how to overcome the S400 not to mention S500.
If it was any other country that tried what Russia did, US and NATO would have invaded such country. But with Russia, not even a combined 34 countries including the US, UK, Germany, France have the gut to sneeze at Russia.

Over the past two weeks, Berlin has delivered thousands of anti-tank mines and portable anti-tank guided missile [ATGM] systems to Kyiv. The German newspaper SPIEGEL wrote about the new shipment, specifying the information with exact numbers and models of weapons: 1,600 anti-tank mines DM22, 3,000 anti-tank mines DM31, and 2,450 portable anti-tank guided missile systems RGW 90, better known among the German troops as Matador ATGM.

Germany supplies DM22/31 off-road 40m range anti-tank mines to Ukraine


SPIEGEL writes that Ukraine has paid for the production and supply of RGW 90, as the Ukrainian authorities have agreed directly with the manufacturer, which for Germany is Dynamit Nobel Defense [DND]. As for the anti-tank mines, SPIEGEL writes that Ukraine most likely received them as a donation from the stocks in the inventory of the German army.

More about DM-22 and DM-31

The captured mines DM-22 and DM-31 are part of the so-called PARM series – off-road German mines, which are constructed with small stabilizing fins. This type of mine was developed in the 80s of the last century. From 1983 to 1988 various tests were conducted, after the elevation in the late 80s, the mines were put into operation.

PARM series mines come in two varieties, PARM 1 and PARM 2. PARM 1 entered service with the Garman Army in the 1990s, and unofficial information says that about 25,000 units have been delivered.

The main difference between PARM 1 and PARM 2 is that PARM2 incorporates an infrared sensor into its design, as well as an improved missile. Both types of mines are mounted on a tripod that can rotate 360 ​​degrees and be raised at a 90-degree angle. The mine is placed manually and includes a five-minute delay before it is launched.

The range of such mines is from 2 to 40 meters. The missile moves at an approximate speed of 120 meters per second and is capable of piercing 600 millimeters of armor. PARM 2 has an increased range of up to 100 meters. The warhead of this missile has been modernized and the armor penetration has been increased to 750 mm armor.

MATADOR RGW90

In the version currently available on the market, the RGW90 HH [HEAT / HESH] A2 uses a dual-mode mono-shaped charge warhead and can therefore also be used against armored vehicles. The weapon is capable of breaking through a triple brick wall.

Ukraine buys 90mm MATADOR RGW90 with dual-mode mono shaped charge

The weapon, which weighs about eight kilograms, can pierce more than 600 millimeters of armored steel at a range of 500 meters – with a probability of hitting more than 90 percent of NATO’s standard target of 2.3 meters x 2.3 meters. Works perfectly in the temperature range from -46 ° C to + 71 ° C.

The weapon was designed in the 99th century and entered service in 2000. MATADOR RGW90 is produced in three places – Germany, Israel, and Singapore. Interestingly, the war in Ukraine was the first documented case in which the MATADOR RGW90 was used in full-scale military operations. However, Israel often uses RGW90 to drill walls for Israeli troops to pass through during its military operations in the Gaza Strip.

Chinese shipments of laptops to Russia fell by 40 percent in March compared with February, while exports of smartphones were off by two-thirds, she said, citing the most recently available Chinese trade data. Exports of telecommunications network equipment fell 98 percent, she added.

Whether China is willing to help Russia withstand sanctions has been an open question for Western policymakers. The export figures, which were previously reported by The Wall Street Journal, suggest Beijing was at least initially reluctant to break the rules, perhaps out of fear of U.S. retaliation, which could involve restricting tech sales to Chinese companies.

The sanctions on Russia require companies worldwide to abide by the ban if they use U.S. manufacturing equipment or software to produce computer chips, which are also known as semiconductors. Most chip factories around the world, including those in China, use software or equipment designed in the United States, analysts say.

“I’m often asked, you know, are these export controls working? And I think the answer is an unmitigated, unqualified yes,” Raimondo said. “I think they’re working because we have such a strong coalition of countries around the world participating in enforcing.”

Computer chip industry begins halting deliveries to Russia in response to U.S. sanctions

The United States and 37 other countries designed the trade restrictions to cripple Russia’s military and high-tech economy after the country’s invasion of Ukraine. The rules ban the sale of computer chips, telecommunications equipment, lasers, avionics and maritime technology to many Russian buyers.

There are signs the restrictions also are undermining Russia’s ability to manufacture at least some military equipment. Last week, Raimondo told a Senate committee that Ukrainian officials had reported finding computer chips intended for household appliances in Russian military gear. Raimondo’s spokeswoman later clarified that the makeshift chips were found in tanks.


Douglas Fuller, a semiconductor expert at City University of Hong Kong, said that’s less strange than it might seem. A type of semiconductor known as a microcontroller is used to control various functions in both appliances and motorized vehicles, he said. Since tanks are essentially armored autos, the chips probably could be used to control the same functions they do in cars, such as braking and steering, he said.

The export bans were not meant to block sales to Russia of consumer goods such as smartphones and laptops. But trade lawyers say some companies have stopped delivering electronic goods to Russia altogether, regardless of whether individual items violate the rules.

“Many companies are just shutting down exports to Russia. Period,” said Kevin Wolf, a former senior Commerce Department official who is now a partner at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld.

That differs from Western tech companies’ approach to an earlier U.S. rule banning tech exports to Huawei, the Chinese telecommunications manufacturer, which the United States accused of threatening U.S. national security. In that case, computer chip manufacturers and other companies asked their lawyers to pore over the rules to determine which sales were still allowed.

[b]A variety of big tech companies — in the United States, South Korea and even China — have said they would halt sales to or suspend business in Russia over the war.

China’s DJI, the world’s largest manufacturer of commercial drones, said in April it was suspending operations in Ukraine and Russia, becoming the first major Chinese company to openly quit the markets over a war that China’s government has refused to condemn.

Apple in March said it was pausing all product sales in Russia. Days later Samsung also suspended all product sales, including smartphones and computer chips.

Apple, Samsung and China’s Xiaomi were the top three smartphone companies in Russia in the first quarter as measured by shipments, according to the latest figures from International Data Corp. (IDC).

Xiaomi did not immediately respond to a request for comment on its sales to Russian buyers.

Huawei, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of telecommunications network equipment, declined to say whether it has reduced sales to Russia, though the near total collapse of such equipment sales in March suggests that it did.

“Our hearts go out to the people who are suffering as a result of this conflict,” spokesman Glenn Schloss said in an email. “We are evaluating the impact of related policies. It is Huawei’s policy to comply with applicable laws and regulations of the countries and regions in which we operate.”

Even if some tech companies are not directly selling in Russia anymore, their products still could make it there through the gray market, said Nabila Popal, research director for the global device market at IDC.

“Savvy traders will find a way to get them in,” she said.

Exports to Russia from a variety of countries have fallen sharply, Raimondo said. U.S. shipments in tech categories subject to export controls have decreased by 86 percent. South Korea’s exports to Russia have fallen by 62 percent and Finland’s are down by 60 percent, she said.

Article 10 of NATO treaty compulsorily requires consensus and unanimity among members states before admitting a new member

NATO’s “open door policy” is based on Article 10 of its founding treaty. Any decision to invite a country to join the Alliance is taken by the North Atlantic Council on the basis of consensus among all Allies. No third country has a say in such deliberations.

What you should say is that, Turkey simply wants finland and sweden to outlaw the pkk group that have been terrorizing turkey for years. Turkey will achieve their aim when Finland and sweden shift ground, and they will eventually be admitted into NATO

I would have robustly responded to your Post, because l do enjoy educative discussions but l wont because it appears that you cannot discuss with0ut INSULTING your co-debater.
Saying "I am not making Sense", is insulting.
I wont say so to you (as you can see in my lengthy Posts, No Insults) and l wont accept it from you or anyone, l would rather not engage anyone who insults others to get their point across.

Cheers.

Is America a member of the European Union, what is its Business in a War between Russia and Ukraine?
- Why is America spending $15Billion, plus another $40Billion in weapons to assist Ukraine?
- Why is America providing accurate GPS Location Data of Russian Assets (Weapons, Tanks, even Senior Officers) to Ukrain, who then use it in targeting Russian Assets?
- Why is the UK living next door to Ukraine and if not, why is it trying to go bankrupt in supplying weapons and Mercenaries to Ukraine?
- What about Germany who had to change its laws, so it can supply weapons to Ukraine?
- Did Russia attack Poland? If not, why did Poland send all its 27 Pieces of MiG Fighter Jets to NATO European headquarters in Germany, for them to be sneaked into Ukraine, to aid Ukraine in the fight?

What is the common denominator in all these?
Answer: America is the head of NATO, UK is ranked next, then Germany and so many other members like Poland that are arming Ukraine and sanctioning Russia and stealing Russian Wealth.

So, it is a No-Brainer to see that this War, though between Russia and Ukraine on the surface, it is actually a War between Russia and NATO, judging from the above analysis.

So, for those abusing Russia that "small Ukraine" has given it a lot of difficulty, l ask them to be honest with themselves.
Its like the Mob that killed that Lady Deborah Samuel, in Sokoto!
One Person can only do as much, when confronted with [color=#990000]the strongest Power in the World and about 35 other mid-Power nations like Germany, UK, Italy, France, Japan, Canada, etc.[/color]

Despite all that, Russia is still standing firm on its objectives:
- Neutralizing the Neo-Nazis in Ukraine (achieved today, with the final SURRENDER and CAPTURE of the Azorv Battalion, in the Arzov Steel Plant in Mariupol)
- Preventing Ukraine from developing Nuclear and Biological Weapons to be used against Russia, with American Assistance( Achieved the the seizure and destruction of Ukrainian Weapons Labs and exposing their nefarious work at the United Nations, for the whole world).
- Ensuring that the Donbas Region (Luhansk and Gdansk) is liberated, independent and rid of all the Neo-Nazis (In Progress at about 70% completion)
- Ensure that Ukraine remains "Neutral and does not join NATO" (as l am writing this, l am not aware that Ukraine is a NATO member or has even "applied" to be so )
- Ensure that it will survive the sanctions imposed on it by the "Gang of NATO Mobsters" (though it has suffered a lot, due to the theft of its Foreign Reserves and other assets, by America, UK and European Countries, the ongoing Russo-phobia, etc, as of today, the Russian Ruble's value is FIVE TIMES its value before the Invasion, Enemy European countries are still dependent on Russian Energy, their Citizens are almost revolting due to the high price of Fuel/Gas and unprecedented Inflation and funnily enough, they are all paying for their Oil and gas in Rubles, as ordered by Putin.

Like they say, "Count your Blessings, One by One and it will surprise you what the Lord has done".

We may not like him, we may not like his style, we may be afraid of him (Russia), we may even be jealous of him(Russia), despite all that, one thing we cannot deny is that he has taken on Mighty-Mob NATO and still standing!
It stakes strength and intelligence to survive such NATO, mob onslaught.

And please, while l dont mind you responding, kindly do it civilly, maturely and without insults, abuse and name-calling, as you will notice l did not insult you or anyone in my own response.
It just does not show decency to be insulting people we dont know, not to mention that it distorts the discusiion.
