Putin humiliated after Kremlin forced to cancel 'flagship' military event

Russia's Defence Ministry has quietly cancelled its flagship military exhibition, in a major blow for Vladimir Putin. Several sources have confirmed to Russian media that the prestigious International Military-Technical Forum "Army 2025" will no longer go ahead as planned.

The event is Russia's largest annual defence exhibition and has been held without fail every year since its inception in 2015 - even during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Russian Army used the forum as an opportunity to showcase its latest weapons and technologies and help the Kremlin sell its military hardware. The event had been scheduled to take place at Patriot Park in Moscow over four days in August from the 11th until 14th.

“... in a major blow for Vladimir Putin.”

Propaganda always contains language like this. Why can’t folks just report the facts?

My guess is that the tank they used last year wouldn’t start!

"Putin humiliated" <-- not so, and no reason for critics to gloat when imagining they know "the why of it."

Notions of beating, cornering, extracting something from . . . Russia, are a mistake.

IMHO

That’s a quote from Willy OMAN, a Ukraine supporter who has actually served in combat in Ukraine.

War looks so easy when you aren’t in the trenches.

Darn, I was looking forward to the Russian gas station attendants latest line of shovels and washing machine chips.

I heard they’re down to garden spades and kiddie beach bucket shovels now.

Didn’t say war was easy. But if you don’t factor in air power, artillery, missiles, defensive positions, drones and even tanks to name a few, then the analysis is simply incorrect.

Evidently, neither can Russia. Even with North Korea’s troops.

Because they’re trying to control what people think, and they’re DAMN GOOD at it, just by looking at posts here.

There you go again. Next, you’ll post an article that Russia is preparing to invade the rest of Europe.
