Today, one of the representatives of the Russian state said that the occupiers allegedly began to use laser weapons systems in Ukraine. Allegedly to save missiles.
Firstly, it is noteworthy that they need to save missiles and somehow explain it. That is, more than two thousand missiles fired by the Russian army at Ukraine were the main part of their stockpile of missiles. That is, only the remnants are left.
Secondly, everyone has already seen Russia at war. Inexperienced conscripts, which it throws into battle like cannon fodder. Marauders who see normal appliances for the first time in a foreign country. Old Soviet "armor" without modern protection. Forbidden phosphorous bombs, which they use to burn schools and ordinary houses.
And missiles, most of which were spent by the Russian army on the destruction of absolutely civilian infrastructure without any strategic military outcome. Today they hit missiles in such a way at Mykolaiv and Dnipro.
Well, in the propaganda of Nazi Germany there was such a term "wunderwaffe". Wonder weapon. The clearer it became they had no chance in the war, the more propaganda there was about the wonder weapon, which would be so powerful that it would provide a turning point in the war.
And here we see that in the third month of a full-scale war, Russia is trying to find its "wunderwaffe". Allegedly laser. All this clearly indicates the complete failure of the invasion.
But again, this also shows that they are afraid to admit that catastrophic mistakes have been made at the highest state and military levels in Russia. Therefore, they will come up with more and more "wunderwaffe" as the Armed Forces of Ukraine and all our defenders liberate our land step by step.
How long will it take? The answer to this question can only be given by the real situation on the battlefield. We are trying to do it as soon as possible. That's for sure. We are obliged to drive out the occupiers and guarantee Ukraine real security.
That is why I signed decrees on the extension of the legal regime of martial law and the term of general mobilization. I hope that the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine will support this decision in the near future. Our army and all those who defend the state must have all the legal tools to act steadily.
Kherson, Melitopol, Berdyansk, Enerhodar, Mariupol and all of our cities and communities that are under occupation - under temporary occupation - should know that Ukraine will return.
I said today in my address on the occasion of the Day of Remembrance of the Victims of the Deportation of the Crimean Tatar People that our state does not leave anyone behind and returns what belongs to Ukraine by right. We remember Crimea. And we will never forget 1944 - the genocide of Crimean Tatars committed by the Soviet authorities. And 2014 - the second wave of destruction of everything free on the Crimean peninsula.
Especially on this day I signed the law on the protection of persons deprived of liberty by the occupiers, as well as on the protection of family members of such people. We are talking about all the Kremlin prisoners - both in Crimea and in the occupied part of Donbas. The law gives them more protection and assistance from the state.
We are also accumulating all possible resources of the world to support Ukraine. I am grateful to Andriy Shevchenko, our legendary football player, for becoming the first ambassador of the new national brand of Ukraine - United24.
The state needs this platform right now, which allows, in particular, to raise funds to support Ukraine. Anyone in the world - in one click - can contribute to our victory. And in the direction he or she considers most important. For example, defense and demining, medical care or rebuilding the country.
And in early June we will be able to see the first special event in London with the participation of Andriy Shevchenko in support of United24.
I thanked President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen for the package of aid to our country announced today. Its amount is 9 billion euros. And also for supporting the plans for restoration of Ukraine. This step by the European Commission is a testament to the true leadership that the European Union is capable of. And it will definitely help us in the struggle for our common freedom.
I spoke with the new President of the United Arab Emirates. Congratulated him on his election and invited to take part in the post-war reconstruction of the state. We discussed the threat to global food security that Russia had provoked by the invasion.
And traditionally in the evening I signed the decree on awarding our heroes. 197 servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were awarded state awards. 5 of them - posthumously.
Also today I had the honor to present the Order of the Golden Star to servicemen who were previously awarded the title of Hero of Ukraine. In particular, to Colonel Serhiy Baranovsky for courage and efficiency in the battles in Donbas. And to Colonel Serhiy Musienko for personal courage and success in the battles in the Kharkiv region.
They appear to have welcomed their EU/GAE enslavers with colors.
The more I learn about "The Ukraine" the more I learn it is a DC/NATO deep-state satrapy
Trump, Russia, and How Not to Lose the Information War With Nina Jankowicz

She herself said she is Polish/Ukrainian.
She worked for the Ukrainian government before working for Biden.
Her job for Biden was to attack Trump and knock down anything negatively said about Biden or Ukraine.
Bozo the clown is now posting on Free Republic?
The xiden regime is controlled by the same shadow globalists.
Do you suggest that we should not resist?
Just, orderly, get on the cattle cars and march to the camps?
She literally worked on Saint Z’s campaign.
The term was shortened to "WuWa." As Germany slid toward utter defeat and fatalism became default attitude of the population, a catchphrase became popular: "Wo bleibt die WuWa?" which means "where is the WuWa?" or "where are they keeping the WuWa?"
I remember this detail from William Shirer's great The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.
The propaganda is deep today.
And, Zelensky has banned or suspended ALL opposition parties, imprisoned opposition leaders and shutdown opposition media outlets. The Ukrainian SBU is either killing or arresting those that criticize the government's war strategy.
And, BTW, the Ukrainians use neo-Nazis as their frontline fighter.
But, you think the Ukrainians are the good guys?
Why in hell are we wasting money on this dumpster of country and fighting a proxy war with Russia? It's insane.
Let’s not kid ourselves. Russia has enough wunder-waffen to kill everyone on the planet.
His handlers would have killed him had he tried.
“It is a shame this pervy puke didn’t flee to the west in February. He could have spared the Ukraine from two months of death and destruction.”
Yes, it is! Had he left when he had a chance it would have saved us over $40 billion dollars plus countless lives of his poor Nazi Asov soldiers.
What blows my mind is his absolute bald-faced lies. His soldiers are surrendering all over the place (Mariupol & Donbas) and then he goes on TV and creates these imaginary fairytale stories!
This guy has lost the east of his country (Donbas) including a city of 500,000 (Mariupol). And he is on his way to losing the entire east and southern coast.
What a scumbag.
One good thing he has done is show us how incredibly insane Xiden and his so-called experts really are (like we didn’t already know).

look at most any image of their tanks an you will see them covered with modern reactive armor - the brick like shapes; upgraded T-70s come with modern sights and reactive armor, the T80s and 90s both have defenses against manpads like any modern tank.
The Orc use thermobaric (burns off the O2) rockets from TOS-1As and from VKF dropped FAB-500 and 6000s. They aren’t forbidden, except in a declared war which this is not.
As for the wonder weapon, they have tried the new T-90Ms, 10 of the 20 Terminator BMPTs - all with little effect.
Maybe they are working on some laser weapon like flying sharks with mounted lasers - who knows. Whatever it is, if there is any validity, cannot replace troops which they do not have enough of to hold the ground they have already taken, let alone more.
He trapped like a mob target. He tries anything at all and they will put a bullet in him.
He could have spared the Ukraine from two months of death and destruction.

Sort of like Biden allowing millions of illegals from 162 countries to flood across our border, rather than spare them any inconvenience.
Orcs? Does that make the Ukes Hobbits or Trolls or something?

Orc is a name associated with the mogul hoards that swept over Russia and into Europe. Where do you imagine Tolkien got it from?
meretrīx, latin; she who earns, whore
What a shame that Churchill didn’t just surrender to the Nazis. He could have saved the British so much death and destruction in the Battle of Britain.
