They won't be fighting Russians in conventional combat, this is for after Russia gives u...signs a ceasefire with Ukraine. I'm sure even the Danish army can handle a simple babysitting job.

Because the Russian army is still there and if needed, Russia could just declare full mobilization and zerg rush Ukraine. The problem is that Russia DOESN'T want to declare full mobilization because then they'd have to explain why their "special operation" in Ukraine suddenly needs them to...

If Russia does this, they are legitimately retarded. The only reason this hasn't escalated is because NATO and Russia have been avoiding targeting each other directly, this is the equivalent of a drunk guy at a bar yelling "LET'S DO THIS!" before throwing a punch at the MMA champion drinking a...

I can't confirm for sure but I heard rumors that when the Russians had just started withdrawing, Armenians shot towards our positions from the direction of Khojaly and our army made some advances in that direction during a counter-attack. I sincerely hope that if they actually are stupid enough...

I won't be surprised if Turkey can push for F-35s at this point.

That's the sunwheel and it has been used by Ukrainian nationalists and left-wingers alike. Even hippies use it. FFS people, do some goddamn research.

Have you checked the news? Barely anyone is buying Russian gas anymore, even the EU decided to speedrun their transition away from such resources after dragging their feet for so many years.

Because those assurances to the contrary were never actually made? USSR didn't eliminate the Warsaw Pact, it fell apart because none of the countries participating wanted to be in it and overthrew all of their communist governments as soon as possible and left. You might be able to fool some...

Yeah, it's cheap and available. For now.

Given the horrendous accuracy of Russian missiles in Ukraine, I think it's legitimate to question whether these even work as advertised.

I wouldn't say that...Russia is not the only source of gas on the planet nor the most plentiful and there are already plans in motion to acquire alternate sources to compensate for the reliance on Russian gas.

Are there pro-Russian people in Ukraine? Probably, although I'd be skeptical if their numbers now are higher than 0.1% or thereabouts. Is Russian propaganda correct that all Russian-speaking peoples want to be under Russia and they are all ethnic Russian minorities? No. That was my point. The...

Interesting but it's still odd that they would support former communist regimes that are no longer so. It's like someone supporting modern Spanish government because of a fondness for Francoist Spain.

Russian-speaking does not mean ethnic Russians or Russian patriots. Russian propaganda tends to skip over that part.

I've got my fingers crossed that we'll see Russians busting out T-34s before this is all over. Double points if Germany scavenges some Panzerfausts that have been lying in storage since 1943 and ships them to Ukraine.

I'm more of a bird person myself to be honest. Used to have a parakeet that loved to sing along to Def Leppard (or at least he'd start chirping as soon as I put one of their songs on). Tried to teach him a few words as well but I'm afraid I lacked the patience to spend hours every day talking to...

Moving Russian POWs to Poland would only cause trouble for Poland on the international stage.

Never did understand why modern communists have such a hard-on for Russia. At least China is theoretically still communist, Russia purges communists.

From what I heard, it kept changing hands.

The promise to accept Ukraine is all empty talk anyway. The process normally takes years, Ukraine only has months if not weeks. They're not getting in.
