CNN — Russia appears on track to produce nearly three times more artillery munitions than the US and Europe, a key advantage ahead of what is expected to be another Russian offensive in Ukraine later this year.
Russia is producing about 250,000 artillery munitions per month, or about 3 million a year, according to NATO intelligence estimates of Russian defense production shared with CNN, as well as sources familiar with Western efforts to arm Ukraine. Collectively, the US and Europe have the capacity to generate only about 1.2 million munitions annually to send to Kyiv, a senior European intelligence official told CNN.
Agreed Putin should withdraw
lol
You post this on a kazan thread, precious
Wait a minute... Putin has been trying to win for 2 and a half years, and he is not even close! He has let Ukraine into his country and can’t kick them out. Putin has lost all the original soldiers he started with when he invaded Ukraine.
And now the attacked party should give up all their land and lives and become slaves to the Russians? Better to fight for a hundred years than to give up to the immoral Russians.
Europe knows if Ukraine surrenders Poland and all the other countries in Europe would be attacked then.
Of course!
The news will evoke this response from zeepers.
And since our ping list exists to laugh at the reality of Zeepers, nothing could be more fitting!
😆😂🤣
Why are you calling Russians Neocons? Everyone knows all Putin has done since he became president is attack and invade other countries, including Ukraine.
It’s heartbreaking. :( Those are human beings with people who love them and they’re being used as mere cannon fodder.
(Love the tagline!)
If Russia can produce so much ammo, why are they having to buy it from Iran and North Korea? Because they cannot produce it.
"And who are the people that Kyiv expects to turn this around? Old – for war – conscripted people with an average age of 45 years old, whose training standards have reportedly been so poor that not all of them know how to hold a weapon."
I assume because it was cheaper to do so.
But, apparently, you won't even believe sources that have been rabidly pro-Ukrainian...
The worm has turned on Z-Man.
He “Victory Plan” was just more delusional Ukie Propaganda.
Then volunteer to fight for YouCrayne to beat bad Pooty-poo.
Right along with what Jim intended with FR
You should be proud 😎
Yes thank you.
I’ll add you to the Zeeper Follies Ping List so you don’t miss any great new memes! We have a whole new season coming!
The new “old” recruits are training with paintball equipment. This is atrocious. Those poor men don’t stand a chance!
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Democrats have turned against the Russians.
It started in earnest with Obama, fueled the anti-Trump rumor mill and a basket full of vague allegations about Russian trolls hacking corporate servers and tampering with elections. Biden issued Executive Order 14024, 11 months prior to Putin’s invasion. This was from administration hardly competent to anticipate beyond the coming week. Then came the Afghan withdrawal of May that same year, one month after the anti-Russian announcement.
Biden’s decision to throw in with the Ukes followed Cheney’s desire to dismantle Russia in the manner of Yugoslavia. That policy probably stimulated the massive “investments” led by Cheneys, Bushes, Obamas, Soros & Biden. Putin’s invasion was a reaction to that encroachment, as he no doubt perceived it. Biden responded, intent on preserving those investments, but relying on Cheney’s doctrine as a pretext.
The point is: this war was planned long before it happened.
I’m just an armchair referee; if anyone can offer corrections I’d be grateful.
Perfect
Curse you Red Baron!
It started with our push to expand NATO encroaching right up to the Russian border. It wasn't right when The Soviet Union tried to do it to US and it isn't right for us to do it to Russia.
WE won the Cold War but the MIC and NeoCons weren't satisfied with Peace, you want an endless war to fill the coffers with ill gained lucre.
