The "DC10s" are most likely KC-10 tankers.
Pardon me if this was previously posted, but I find it amusing, basically the UK is saying: We're banning your ships, which aren't allowed entry into UK ports, but NOT your oil and gas, in fact here's what to do - just use other nations' vessels to ship your oil and gas to us!
This is just like China racking up ever higher trade surplus with US all the while the US puts more tech and economic sanctions upon China with the weaponized US dollar meaning China is shipping real goods to the US while holding ever worthless dollars in return that cannot be used to buy from the US what it needs and which everyone knows the US will never pay back (at best it will monetize the debt aka inflate it away and at worst it will simply strike it off entirely in a TW reunification scenario)
Energy is king, as I have written in my treatise on this subject matter, MONEY is actually a CLAIM on ENERGY, namely the purchasing power of money stems from the ability of energy to be applied to do work in terms of the productivity multiplier effect etc etc etc
This is the worst of all worlds situation for Russia where it sends real wealth (energy) to the enemy (UK, EU, etc ) while its sanctioned from pretty much anything and everything else... So the enemy gets the real money (ENERGY) while in returning giving Russia fake money that cannot be used to purchase for anything else....
China should force all trade to be in Yuan and Russia should only sell natgas/etc in exchange for accepting only Yuan, gold or their own currency
Only way he will come to the negotiating table is when more cities fall to the Russians and when Ukrainian forces in the east get wiped out.
Interesting about the sanctions against Russia, today imports of Russian gas by the EU are 3 times higher
This is a wonderful visual representation of a discussion I had yesterday. These pockets will be completely starved out since the supply depots are being taken. I was wondering where the 4th Tank Guard division was rolling.Look at these pockets\encirclements

That’s the answer to my question about Khariv. They are preparing to encircle the city. The air strikes and artillery bombardment are just being done to soften Ukrainian defensive positions. At this rate the city will be encircled by next week.Look at these pockets\encirclements
