Russians are always doomering even when they are winning, also the inpact on the refineries are overstated because hitting a tank looks impressive but they are so few and so far in between it doesn't go beyond that, as shown by the fact that exports are actually increasing



Hardly upper hand in drone warfare beyond the fact of being able to exploit NATO airspace.

That channel seems to think that Ukraine can beat Russia with the help of the west when in reality Ukraine is getting decimated off screen while the world is focusing on the USA getting owned in Iran, probably best to take that channel with a grain of salt.

Ukraine isn't getting decimated. That war has come to a crawl with no end in sight.

Russia air defense is totally different level. and continously upgraded. i posted links here that S350 in 2024 hit 12 or 16 HIMAR missiles 70 to 90 miles away in few seconds. so what ever refinery or apartment buildings are hit it is allowed to be hit. Putin is eliminating that comfort zone.
Putin said in April 2025 interview that Russians must adopt traditional values or cease to exist. now this looks like innocent statement but behind it is warning to characterless population. since three years already past post Ukraine. and population character has not improved and this after Putin speeches about Islam for past 20 years. there is alot more when you dig deeper.

Volodin: Many regions are ineffective in providing housing for orphans
November 14, 2024, 4:33 PM
The State Duma Chairman noted that even some donor regions do not include this issue among their priorities.
"They're implementing various programs: some are funding professional sports, a football team made up of foreign players from various African countries. Some are implementing concessions and making decisions within their authority. Among the tasks they (regional authorities – Ed.) see as priorities is the issue of… providing housing for orphans? Not everyone," Volodin said.

Someone's spending way too much time on NAFO twitter.

Modern drone warfare is entirely a function of one's access to Chinese supply chain and Ukraine is only allowed to have drones at all because they're kept at a constant disadvantage.

Look at Iranian drone warfare, then remember Russia currently produces 12k Geran a month, while Iran has only used 2k Shaheds in the entire war so far. There are days where Russia used more drones on Ukraine in a single night than Ukraine has sent against Russia in an entire year.


Ukraine's advantage is their total disregard for their own loses because their rulers aren't Ukrainian, they're NATO Zionist who doesn't consider Ukrainians people. That and that they has few important things to lose at this point.
