You really gotta count how many cheap boat Ukrainians lost trying to sink 60 ships. Ofc they (suicide boats) are much, much, much cheaper and cause no crew casualties being remotely controlled. So it is super cost effective, And most importantly safe, but if you count pure numbers i am sure Ukrainian losses of those boats are massively higher.
But the fact that russians can still use their missles ships to launch missiles is a big issue. Even if there are fewer of those ships, its not 0 :(… Yet
You missed the point (and i should have perhaps been clearer), the chap was saying “no navy”, i am pointing out that suicide drones are still part of that navy and Ukrainians had 15000 personal at the start of the war in the navy.
Debatable, its population is more than 10 smaller than Ukraine, much smaller area. Its easier to blitzkrieg through it. But even a protracted grind war they won’t be as close to friendly nato countries who can supply fast and active armed forces is under 50k. That would include non-front line roles. So another exercise of 2-300k conscripts maybe push through if they have enough vehicles to carry ammo.
But yes they are busy elsewhere atm. curiously armenia seems to have 400 main battle tanks and 200 ifvs so perhaps can offer decent resistance for a few days if they work/have ammo

We’d all be dead way before the sun gets that close to be honest. The amount of radiation that we would be getting would likely strip our atmosphere way before the sun would get that physically close
This exactly, if you believe that the enemy is completely incompetent, you will get stung by that. Look at the reality of war, lack of ammunition means all those high end toys are stuck doing nothing. Look in which direction yhe front is going.
NATO is left buying ammunition from non eu countries for Ukraine when they need it 6 months ago, would that be happening if we had stockpiles of the stuff for ourselves? Just how much is left for NATO to use for self defense?
So just how much ammunition do we have, keep in mind both Russians and Chinese have militatries well over a million soldiers, thousands of tanks and other ivf. How many anti tank weapons does NATO have left? How many himars missiles? And if we do have this stock, why are we not giving it to Ukraine and repying on purchasing shells half way around the world and even then making promised to pay for it but forking over nothing yet?
They need our help now, not tomorrow. This makes me wonder just how much stock of ammunition do we have for all those high tech toys.
Thats not a cop, but a “vote support officer” who help you vote for the right candidate even if you already have one in mind 😄😉
He saw that the lady clearly did not need support making a decision and went to get some coffee.
After all this is just a prime example of a far more efficient democracy in action. Why waste time voting individually? Its clearly faster to vote at the same time.
I suspect the process is very simple, add the name and passport number details to be pulled over at the border. A notification to take someone aside and then call police to arrest srems simple enough and something that is videly practiced in an authoritarian countries. Where was a plane was forced down and a anti government person was arrested a couple of years ago? Wasn’t it Belarus?
Scam is still scam, they could have been realising true gameplay trailers instead of wasting time on rendered false gameplay that does not reflect a game at all
Bullshit article is bullshit, the war is there because 1 country invaded abother back in 2014 and we sat there twiddling our thumbs and let it happen. Now they simply want more. Oh what was the thing that was discovered in eastern Ukraine around 2012? Oil and gas you say?
Why ofc it never occured to me that one of the major suppliers of oil and gas might want to aquire more “interests” and prevent major distributor from accessing the market themselves… /s…
