Lol...Putin chief of staffs and Russian cadets that are hiding in Nigeria lmao are having filled day over Kiev bombings.
That was how Japan attacked usa Pacific fleet and island killing over 2000 personnel and civilians unprovoked. In the end usa came out victorious in the Pacific war and went on to bomb Nagasaki and others. This is going to be Ukraine's victory in the end no matter the bombs, and Kiev will deliver a bomb to Moscow one-day
Ok grin

Croatian president opposes training Ukrainian servicemen in his country

Zoran Milanovic said he thought the mission to train Ukrainian servicemen in several EU countries could entail serious implications
Croatian President Zoran Milanovic on Tuesday said he opposes training Ukrainian servicemen in his country.

"I don’t support this idea because I don’t support Croatia getting involved in this war more than it should," he told reporters. "As the commander-in-chief, I don’t approve this."

Milanovic said he thought the mission to train Ukrainian servicemen in several EU countries could entail serious implications.

He said "political poseurs and people of low morality profit" from the Ukrainian conflict.

 

Training mission

 

Agence France-Presse reported earlier that the ambassadors of the EU countries agreed to start a training mission for Ukrainian servicemen in several EU countries. According to diplomats, this decision was made by the EU ambassadors in Brussels and is set to be approved at a meeting of foreign ministers in Luxembourg on October 17. It’s assumed that the mission will initially train about 15,000 Ukrainian servicemen.

And gambo quoted the thread owner.
You can't isolate the drones aspect of the embargo. The reason for the discussion (i.e. between Uprightheous and gambo) was the damage the drone were causing.

I am sure, if uprightheous had not mentioned drone, gambo would not have quoted the post.

As at now, the West are claiming that the embago of the UN 2231 doesn't expire until 2023 and are looking to impose further sanctions on Iran.
We are just repeating same thing over and over again. Let's just forget it. Meanwhile, the fact remains that whether the embargo has expired or would soon expire, Iranian weapon sales have come to stay because no UNSC resolution of placing further embargo would stick without Russia and China agreeing to it, and we already know the answer to that. That leaves the US and its NATO allies to put out their own embargo which would only amount to mere academic exercise aside from the of members keeping to it.

He further explained that the drone is “not a self-sufficient weapon” it cannot work by itself as it “gets shot down by air defense systems in a flash and has no combat effectiveness at all.”

‘We want respect’: Putin’s authority tested in Central Asia

Former Soviet republics are increasingly standing up to Moscow as Russia under Western sanctions looks to their markets.

Sensing that Russia has been weakened by its war in Ukraine, some of its closest allies in Central Asia are displaying a newly assertive streak.


The region’s five former Soviet republics are increasingly standing up to Moscow, aware of their new-found leverage as Russia looks to their markets and trade routes in a bid to circumvent Western sanctions.

The new dynamic was strikingly illustrated when Russian President Vladimir Putin ran into a seven-minute tirade from the leader of Tajikistan, one of the region’s smallest and poorest countries, at a summit in Kazakhstan last week.

“We want RESPECT. Nothing else. Respect,” said Emomali Rahmon, Tajikistan’s president since 1994, complaining that Moscow’s attitude had not improved since the Soviet era

Putin listened uncomfortably. A video of the embittered speech surfaced at the weekend and was not part of the official coverage of the October 14 summit
In deed, this is what any sane thinking nation would do; seize the opportunity to get something profitable and rewarding at the end. Unlike our useless leaders in Africa who can't use this golden opportunity to cash out big time in the area of gas and other minerals to Europe.

However, per the formal Soviet States now so-called standing up to Moscow, once any little trouble erupts within their enclave, they will still waste no time in running back to Moscow for help. That's the reality. So. I don't understand the noise making.

The New York Times cites US government officials: Iranian instructors from the Revolutionary Guards operate from a Russian military base in Crimea, where most of the suicide drones sent from Iran are stationed.

According to the report, the Iranians are instructing the Russians to operate the drones, but it is unclear whether they are also fly them themselves.

Still again. No matter how hard you try to isolate the posts, you just can't. His reply to The thread owner was about the drones. Or was it Iran's nuclear devices that are being used in Ukraine?

I do not care whether they have come to stay or not. That was not the point of gambos reply to The thread owner.

Uprightness100:
According to reports in Ukraine, the Ukrainian army has concentrated up to 70,000 of its troops and reservists (by force) along the northern border with Belarus, to defend Kyiv.

The Belarusian army was positioned on the front line in great strength, including armor, artillery and a very large infantry force. If it invades, Kyiv is in danger, and even if he does not invade, it is an asset to the Russians, because these Ukrainian soldiers are grounded to the northern front, and will not be able to help on other fronts. The Russians thereby split the Ukrainian army.

(Guy Bechor)
It's same tactics they used in the early days of the war when that huge Russian military column got to the outskirts of Kiev and just stood there doing practically nothing. They succeeded in pinning down the large Ukie forces in Kiev which paved the way for the success they recorded in the East. Russia was never interested in taking Kiev; only kids don't understand the tactical play here.

It was strategic, it was a decoy to make NAZI Ukraine concentrate thier forces close to Kiev.
Forces were later redeployed across territories that at that time, Ukrainian, before they were liberated by Russia.

A video posted to social media shows a crowd of heavily armored riot police charging a cluster of demonstrators sheltering behind a makeshift barricade. While the protesters scatter almost immediately, the cops carry off a few of them, while protesters toss projectiles at them.
Another clip shows police whacking demonstrators with their batons and drenching them in pepper spray while others trade blows with protesters.

against Macron’s government and its policies have been ongoing since last month, when employees at TotalEnergies and Esso-ExxonMobil demanded a salary bump of over 10% to compensate for high inflation. The resulting strike took a third of France’s gas stations out of service, causing long lines to fill up at the remaining locations. Tuesday’s demonstrations included an official action by the General Confederation of Labor, with transit workers, as well as auto plant and power plant workers, taking to the streets alongside the refinery and gas station workers and their supporters.

The group, which is named for member states Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, is scheduled to meet next year in Johannesburg for its annual summit.

“The BRICS nations are going to be meeting in a summit next year under the chairship of South Africa, and the matter is going to be under consideration,” Ramaphosa said. “And already, a number of countries or nations have been making approaches to the other member countries, and we’ve given them the same answer – to say it’ll be discussed by the BRICS partners themselves, five of them, and thereafter a decision will be made.”

The Saudi-South Africa talks came amid a row between Riyadh and Washington over OPEC’s decision to cut production quotas by 2 million barrels a day. US President Joe Biden last week threatened Saudi Arabia with unspecified “consequences” and accused the longtime ally of siding with Russia in the Ukraine crisis. US lawmakers have called for cutting off cooperation with Saudi Arabia, such as halting arms sales or withdrawing military support.
