“The Russians will be forced to buy ammo from Ukraine.”

FR is home to some of the most outrageous, ridiculous notions that can be found anywhere on the Internet. You people have no respect for yourselves whatsoever.

its laughable to think that the ammo they’d stockpiled for decades during the cold war has just up and disappeared. I’d be very surprised if they have less than a trillion rounds of 7.62x39 sitting around their largest-landmass in the world country.

This stuff, if properly stored, will last a hundred years, even with corrosive primers.

no way no how is this anything but propaganda.

Russia is a terrorist extortion state, and her leaders are evil through and through. Take out her nuclear forces, before she builds them up much further.

“no way no how is this anything but propaganda.”

Apparently, some are clueless as to the sheer amount of munitions the Ukrainians have gone through that it has pretty much depleted US/UK/NATO/EU/Western storage/supplies of such.

As par, you take the multitude of articles I linked as you wish.

Denial has always been a useful human mechanism for coping with truths, facts, etc. that one does not want to hear, believe, etc.

I really doubt Russia needs his help to obtain weapons. He was a dealer to rogue half azzed nations, cartels and terrorist.

Russia has more than adequate industrial capacity and energy to create all of the weapons it needs. This article is a sad bit of propaganda posted by a deranged, neocon loon.

That’s not the kind of ammo they are talking about.
