Is this not the Irpin that have fallen into the arms of the Russian armed forces? |
Cptflint:Just did.. I think the lead tank got hit and the other tanks fired on all angles neutralizing their attackers before moving on.. The commander must have been killed and the next top ranking officer took charge.. The Ukrainian attackers don't have a chance though I don't think they were all killed, some must have escaped from the fight.. |
Uprightness100:They are waiting behind civilian shield |
Comradewhy:And US didn't break international laws or killed civilians (Including children) in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria? Oga, Russia security guarantees must be met either by dialogue or by military intervention, anyway NATO, US and Ukraine wants it! We want peace in the world and it's clear who wants war for it's military industries.. |
But they were winning the war |
Zelenskky should stop his Nationalist fighters from firing artillery rounds from civilian areas because the Russians must respond.. Everything should never be for propaganda purposes.. |
Two mortar fire from close range plus Cal.50 rounds and the vehicle and the two bodies aren't shredded to pieces! Anything for propaganda��♂️ |
The buck-passing between Poland and the US over the possible use of elderly MiG-29s to hit Russian forces inside Ukraine is one of the west’s few diplomatic failures of the past month. It also raises questions about how far European countries are prepared to escalate militarily before they believe they will touch a dangerous Russian tripwire. The US and Europe have worked hard to keep their differences over sanctions and oil embargos to a public minimum, and tried to accommodate each other’s national interests. So it was striking on Tuesday when first the Pentagon described a Polish offer to send plans to the US airbase in Mannheim as “untenable”, then the deputy US secretary of state said the US had not been consulted about the plan. Part of the problem was that the Polish proposal was subtly but critically different to a scheme that had been previously discussed in private. Against the backdrop of highly charged diplomatic tensions, presentation matters. In essence Poland said it would cooperate in strengthening the Ukrainian air force so long as this would be seen in Moscow as a US, Nato or EU scheme, but not a Polish one. In its original US-conceived iteration, the proposal was a trilateral deal whereby Poland would hand over the MiGs to Ukrainian pilots to fly into their homeland, and the US would then provide some substitute planes. Boris Johnson, an enthusiast, described the plan as “rent a MiG”. That proposal, arguably, was not qualitatively different to Nato members providing Ukraine with Javelin anti-tank missiles. In return, Poland would eventually fill the hole in its air force with 28 F-16s being provided by the US. But under private pressure from the US, Poland felt the plan unduly exposed its citizens to Putin’s ire. So instead, in a game of diplomatic pass the parcel, Poland tweaked the proposals so the planes would be sent free of charge to the US airbase in Ramstein, Germany, rather than being flown out of Poland into Ukraine. The move would literally take Poland out of the line of Russia’s fire since the plan could be labelled as that of the US, Nato or the EU.

KaluwisxPRO:Mind you! This is not a military invasion! This is a "Special military operations" If Russia deploys as much as 50% of his military assets(even if Ukraine prepares for a full year), They will raze Ukraine into smithereens! |
BERLIN — German Chancellor Olaf Scholz today pushed back against calls from the U.S. and Ukraine for a ban on imports of Russian gas and oil as part of international sanctions on Moscow. “Europe has deliberately exempted energy supplies from Russia from sanctions,” Scholz said in a statement, adding: “At the moment, Europe’s supply of energy for heat generation, mobility, power supply and industry cannot be secured in any other way. It is therefore of essential importance for the provision of public services and the daily lives of our citizens.” The Ukrainian government, with the banking of a number of U.S. and European politicians, has argued that the West must end imports of Russian energy in order to stop helping to finance Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war chest. Scholz said that his government and European partners have been “working hard for months” to develop alternatives to Russian energy supplies, but stressed that “this cannot be done overnight.” “That is why it is a conscious decision on our part to continue the activities of business enterprises in the area of energy supply with Russia,” Scholz added. The chancellor’s intervention followed comments by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who said on Sunday that the United States and European Union were in “very active discussions” to ban imports of Russian oil. Japanese media reported that Tokyo had joined those discussions. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday also called for “a boycott of Russian exports, in particular, the rejection of oil and oil products from Russia.” Source https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.politico.eu/article/germany-rejects-calls-for-banning-russian-oil-and-gas/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwjfnd6X87j2AhWoyoUKHUq-CTIQ0PADKAB6BAgTEAE&usg=AOvVaw1J1vQM2wc69uIs5QJefdpf

Several Russian banks said on Sunday they would soon start issuing cards using the Chinese UnionPay card operator’s system. The new issues will be coupled with Russia’s own Mir network. The move comes after Visa and MasterCard said they were suspending operations in Russia. Announcements regarding the switch to UnionPay came on Sunday from Sberbank, Russia’s biggest lender, as well as Alfa Bank and Tinkoff. Visa and Mastercard are American payment platforms. Both announced Saturday they were suspending their services in Russia following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
