Leaders of some of the world’s largest economies reiterated their commitment to Ukraine and condemned Russia’s escalating aggression following a virtual meeting Tuesday morning, vowing to back Ukraine for “as long as it takes.”
“We will continue to provide financial, humanitarian, military, diplomatic and legal support and will stand firmly with Ukraine for as long as it takes,” the G-7 group of nations said in a statement. “We are committed to supporting Ukraine in meeting its winter preparedness needs.”

“We condemn these attacks in the strongest possible terms and recall that indiscriminate attacks on innocent civilian populations constitute a war crime,” the group said. “We will hold President [Vladimir] Putin and those responsible to account.”
(snip)
Russia was a member of the G-7 but was kicked out after it annexed the Ukrainian region of Crimea in 2014. The Kerch Strait Bridge connecting Russia to Crimea was damaged in a bombing Saturday.
The G-7 members are Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States and the European Union.

btw of the 83 missiles Russia fired on Monday, 43 were shot down (52%)
of the 28 missiles Russia fired today, 20 were shot down (71%), including many repurposed S-300 missiles
so the Russian missile attacks are going down in both quantity and quality ... or Ukraine is getting better at shooting them down
To: McGruff
That’s always good advice. Actions speak louder than words.

To: Hamiltonian
that’s one of the unspoken benefits ... real-world battlefield testing
do you know how hard it is to simulate an enemy’s response in equipment testing?
But now Russia is providing NATO with a giant weapons-testing area called “The Donbas” to try our new inventions in
let’s be thankful

it depends on what the meaning of the word IT is...

“as long as it takes”
When "it" is measured by the number of mushroom clouds, will these knuckleheads change their tune?

"As long as it takes" In other words: "As long as the taxpayer's money holds out, as long as we can print fiat 'money' and steal from future generations.
Not a penny comes out of their pockets. In fact they all probably skim 10% off the top and Zelenskyy kicks back another 10% of what he skims.
To: SERKIT
If Putin is willing to use nukes in a war of aggression, what makes you think he would not use this in a future war of aggression?
This is not a defensive war, Russia is not being invaded

Back it until all that is left is Snake Island.
Meanwhile, it's time to elect enough American First Republicans to cutoff funding for Ukraine.

- Power, water, and communication is suffering outages; - If strikes continue or outages made permanent, a Russian offensive may be underway;
- If strikes relent, Russia retaliated and is warning of further strikes;
- Ukraine is suffering from dwindling arms and ammunition; - It is not a matter of if Ukraine’s offensive ends and Russia’s begins, it’s a matter of when;

And the air defense systems on the way now from several nations including the U.S.A. are more advanced than the systems sent before.

Yes. NATO will be neutralizing Russia's nuclear weapons forces then. If Russia uses them in Ukraine, Russia will use them elsewhere. It's only a matter of time and what Russia decides it wants to take after that.

Not the latest but more advanced than systems previously sent to Ukraine. Our Defense won't show the latest of its equipment or how much of it, unless Russia and China go all in against us. And even then, only if and when necessary.
