~I don’t think any sane person doubts Russia has invaded Ukraine and intends to occupy it.~
Even if it is true, this article, even if factually correct, doesn’t prove anything.
Starting with a tank and finishing with MREs.
What they call T-72BM is actually a 1989 model T-72. It might never have been exported and what? Ukraine was a Soviet Union in 1989 and remained this way until 1992.
What Russian MRE has ‘not for sale’ mark? I have never in my life seen such. But it is actually written on Obama-supplied American MREs sent to Ukrainian military (which is factually for sell all around Ukraine and neighboring countries).
Maybe someone has just messed facts?
As for a mineral water have you seen a non-Russian made there?
It reminds me earlier Ukie propaganda pushing the presence of ‘Rolton’ ramen on the battlefield as a clue of Russian presence. Yes, ‘Rolton’ is a Russian brand but it is more known and holds more market in Ukraine and it is actually that makes Ukrainian MREs instead of American ‘not for sale’ which are factually sold by officers.
As for a Russian missile I just don’t know what to say. It is like if the rebels would bring a photo of a charred Chevy-Tahoe by a roadside and a can of Coke to argue for CIA presence.
1-The T-72B was never sent to Soviet Ukraine. “It is operated by the Russian Army in large numbers, but crucially it is not known to have been exported or operated outside of Russia,” Joseph Dempsey, a military analyst for the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies,
2-A Reuters reporter counted 124 packages of field rations with “not for sale” labels and notes that they were produced for the Russian Defense Ministry. A spokeswoman for Voentorg, the company in Russia that produces such meals for the Russian Defense Ministry, confirmed they cannot be sold.
3-About 50 empty bottles of mineral water around the tanks bore labels identifying them as being produced in Russia’s Ivanovo province, the region where the division of the Russian paratroopers captured in August is based.
