I've got to call out Britain here for a moment. The British Government is prepared to commit $3.8 Billion usd worth of funding to Ukraine each year until the conclusion of the war. That might seem noble, but as one of Europe's leaders (despite leaving the EU) this is actually fairly paltry funding. Germany , for example will spend more than $13 Billion usd arming Ukraine in 2024 and has requested from its Parliament $16.2 Billion usd to fund the Ukrainians in 2025. The German economy is roughly 25% larger than the British economy, but they're committed to approximately 4x the funding for Ukraine that Britain is next year.

The reality is that Britain is a substantial producer of Western weapons, both independently and in collaboration with France , Italy , Germany and USA . Given their relative proximity to war, they're committed to donating a surprisingly small amount of lethal aid. $3.8 Billion usd is not a small sum of money, but when compared to the large sums / percentages of GDP that other nations are committed to sending in the form of military and macro financial aid, Britain ought to step up... As should my country for the record, despite being a long way away.

The main Russian here - judging by his zeal - is Gary.

Gary, where are you? okay, okay, I admit that Mariupol now looks much more beautiful than before the bombing.
But where are you?

A story about the rescue of the Russian 152-mm self-propelled gun “Msta-S” from a massive attack by Ukrainian FPV kamikaze drones. The Msta-S self-propelled gun was adopted for armament in 1989, the firing range of the Msta-S self-propelled gun with a conventional projectile is up to 25 km, technical information about it is on the channel. The Msta-S self-propelled gun is equipped with homemade protection and nets for protection against drones. According to the crew of the self-propelled gun, the installation withstood the attack and was sent for repairs; the extent of damage to the self-propelled gun is not clear. Details in the video.

Ukraine War and the Emergence of China as a Power Centre

China, once dependent on the West for income and technology, has emerged as a global power without firing a shot, partly due to the Biden administration's role in the Ukraine conflict. NATO's expansionist aims threatened Russia, leading to the war in Ukraine and putting Russia under immense military and economic pressure from the U.S.

This pressure pushed Russia towards China, which was also seeking allies against American military dominance in the Pacific. While Russia didn't need military aid, it needed support to counter American pressure. China filled the gap left by Western sanctions, supplying consumer goods and buying Russian oil and gas that previously went to Europe.

Both Russia and China have benefited: Russia kept the war ongoing despite sanctions, and China secured cheap oil and a market for its goods. Western analysts argue that China benefits more, seeing Russia as weakened, but they overlook the strategic shift in the Pacific. China aims to push the U.S. back to its West Coast with Russian help and they have been building its navy to confront the U.S., not Russia.

How China Will Use This Opportunity

The close relationship between China and Russia should concern the West. China now has a market of 200 million people in Russia, replacing possible lost Western trade, with two-way trade in 2023 exceeding $200 billion. This makes China more prosperous and less dependent on the West.

China's military, though large, is technologically behind. A technologically competent Russia can enhance China's military capabilities, posing a greater threat to the U.S. in the Pacific. Improved Chinese missiles could force American military restraint.

Future Scenarios

In the next 20 to 30 years, differences between China and Russia are likely to emerge, particularly over global influence. China's eagerness to be seen on par with the U.S. and Russia may lead to conflicts similar to the 1967 Ussuri River clash when Mao Tse Tung wanted to grab a part of Russia including Vladivostok port.

India's growing power will also influence this dynamic. In ten years, India is projected to be a $10 trillion economy with $1.5 trillion in high-tech exports. As the West reduces its dependence on China, it will turn to India for services and technology goods, shifting the balance of power. India's strategic relations with Russia, but not China, will make it a counterweight in favor of Russia, a development welcomed by the U.S.

The net impact of the Ukraine war does not favor the U.S., which is unlikely to emerge victorious. If Russia remains undefeated, it will resolve the issue of its influence in Europe. While Russia may not seek direct military and political dominance, the resumption of oil flows into Europe will enhance its strategic influence. The lingering bitterness of the Ukraine conflict will be remembered.

China, for strategic reasons, may avoid conflict with Russia. However, pushing the U.S. back to its West Coast will remain a high priority for China.

Update on the delivery timeline for artillery shells to Ukraine purchased by the Czech led initiative. The initiative will procure 800,000 122mm and 155mm shells.

50,000 shells were delivered in June. 50,000 additional shells will arrive in each of July and August. 80,000-100,000 shells will arrive each month beyond that until the total procurement is complete. By the end of 2024 roughly 500,000 of the shells will have arrived, with the remaining 300,000 shells scheduled to arrive throughout the winter / early spring of 2025.

There is an avenue to continue procuring up to an additional 500,000 shells (totaling 1.3 million) through 2025, however, There is not yet Western funding in place for those additional shells.

Czech Republic will supply Ukraine with 500,000 rounds by the end of the year

TM-62 mines began to be used to storm buildings in Ukraine. The Russian army began to use TM-62 anti-tank mines in Ukraine as grenades, and several cases have already been recorded. Why is this done? This method allows you to avoid storming the building, since the mine actually destroys the building. It is worth noting that with this method of assault, the soldier himself may receive a concussion. Presumably, a hole is drilled in the TM-62 mines and a grenade fuse is inserted there, since the video shows a soldier pulling the pin from the mine.

An episode of a battle in Ukraine, a Russian T-72 tank and an MTLB armored personnel carrier, the location of the shooting is not disclosed. The task of the T-72 tank was to cover the landing of an assault group from an MT-LB armored personnel carrier; the battle was fought with the Ukrainian 68th separate Jaeger Brigade named after Oleksa Dovbush. In the video you can see a powerful blow from a Ukrainian FPV drone on the roof of the tank, thanks to the protection of the tower, called “Mangal”, the tank withstood the drone’s attack. The decision to land a Russian assault group was canceled because intelligence reported that Ukrainian artillery was preparing to attack the landing area. The video is archival and shortened, presumably early spring, showing significant moments of the battle.

-failed attempts of getting thrown into prison.
-Media goes viral on Biden during his debate that even left wing media and major figure heads that lean democrat shit on Biden. Before Hillary and Biden had their asses kissed alot.
-Media goes viral when he called Putin president of Ukraine (maybe he was speaking future tense) VP Trump.
-failed assassination attempt, rumors of security not checking empty building nearby, makes it too difficult to plan a 2nd assassination attempt without it alerting the public that secret service is after him.
-Think we got 2 more debates on TV with time not on Biden's side for his collapsing mental state that people will just watch it with excitement hoping Biden says more stupid shit.

Trump is literally viewed as the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ now. Its so fucking bad that if somehow Biden did win this election with Trump still breathing, barely anyone would want to vote in 2028 with mass majority of Americans truly believing elections don't matter. It's so bad that they have to let Trump win just to convince millions of Americans that voting for elections still matter.

The only thing that can save Zelensky now is that we enter WW3 before he comes to office

Talk about being a “decisive enabler”:
India has increased its imports of Russian oil by approximately 1,800% since before the war in Ukraine began.

— While India's increase was substantial, China only increased its Russian oil imports by 43% during the same period.
— India's increased imports have compensated for almost 70% of Russia's revenue loss from the European Union.
— India's purchases have put $37 billion into Moscow's coffers, undermining Western sanctions aimed at isolating Russia economically.
