⚡Germany's army general warns of equipment gaps due to brigade's deployment in Lithuania. The Bundeswehr is currently only 60% equipped, "at the limit of what is acceptable," "lacking everything from "A" to "Z," "from artillery pieces to raincoats," Lt. Gen. Alfons Mais, the chief of the German Army Headquarters at Strausberg in Brandenburg, said in a letter addressed to German Defense Chief Gen. Carsten Breuer. "The establishment of a new major brigade without additional investment would reduce this number to 55%," Mais is quoted as saying in the letter. Last week, Lithuanian National Defense Minister Arvydas Anusauskas and his German counterpart, Boris Pistorius, in Vilnius signed an action plan for the deployment of a Bundeswehr brigade in Lithuania by 2027, with up to 5,000 German troops with their families arriving in Lithuania.

⚡Amid the forthcoming approval of a scandalous law on expanding mobilization in Ukraine, local media outlets have already published articles saying that the authorities doubt the need for certain measures, such as the mobilization of people with group III disabilities, or the restriction of evaders' rights. Apparently, the Kyiv regime will resort to the standard method of appeasing the population before adopting the document. In this case, Zelenskyy will generously refuse to draft people with disabilities, publicly sending the law for revision. At the same time, no one will change the other provisions of the law, such as lowering of the mobilization age. The Kyiv regime will get a tool for a total war. And only Ukrainian citizens will be the losers. 1 Like |

⚡Berlin is systematically preparing the ground for the expulsion of Ukrainians from the country. Eurostat has published statistics from a survey on the readiness to support the forced extradition of Ukrainian refugees. Men and women from 18 years old were polled. The graph speaks for itself. The majority of Germans support the forced extradition of Ukrainians to war, especially citizens of retirement age. Most likely, the German authorities will keep girls of reproductive age (to correct the demographic situation), and men of conscription age will get sent to the AFU, where they will be thrown into human wave assaults near Avdeevka. 2 Likes
