A third front may be opening for the Russo Iranian Chinese axis. Best to find the key for the bunker and tidy it up a bit just in case. For the information of the forum. Kindly etc.
You're a bit behind, this situation has been discussed mnths back on the Ukraine thread. Several people said if things weren't done then we could be heading for another big war.
One poster, I forgot who did (I think) say events had shades of the 1930's about them. Though they may have referenced the run up to WW1

It was probably me - "I wasn't around in the 1930s but a lot has been written about that time period and this feels like it now, poverty, populist, nationalist governments in Europe, USA and across large parts of the World, imperialist powers oppressing people. Dangerous times."

There are signs that Russia has had enough or at least coming to the conclusion it cannot achieve its aims other then getting away with a bit of land theft.
In 2014 -2021 the Black sea fleet chest out was in Sevastopol knowing the Ukraine could not shift them. Moscova and other glistening ships filled the harbour/
Now a third of them have been sunk the Navy offices destroyed along with their staff and RF ships are s sitting nervously in Russia hopefully (for them) out of range.
They took 10% of Ukraine without much of a fight. The other 10% has come at a huge cost.
One wonders about he wisdom of the UK Government investing big time in the Royal Navy especially those massive aircraft carriers.
Wise sage since Toshack era

They’ve removed the border markers between themselves and Estonia today for reasons only known to themselves.

They have achieved their aims, the Ukranian military is on it's arse. It was never about a land grab, it was about destroying the Ukranian military. It has done this, despite units of the Ukranian military still holding out. NATO, has had a rude awakening too. However, if the Ukraine and it's proxy masters keep resisting, they may have to move onto Odessa and maybe even Kyev to remove Zelensky and his govt. They have nothing left to resist this either

It’s been a roaring success. 2 years, thousands dead, Putin embarrassingly forced to go begging cap in hand to Kim Jong Dong and now he can move his drinks cabinet 200 yards closer to Kiev.

Begging for what? Their arms production is booming, their factories are outproducing even the US by many times. They have huge stockpiles of missiles and munitions. Don't know why they have to ask Kim

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Putin has wanted to end it a long time ago, it's NATO, that wanted to keep it going. Boris Johnson telling Zelensky to keep going, we have your back.That didn't work out so well did it?

The Ukraine war has shown that modern warfare has completely changed. £50m tanks are being destroyed by £100 drones. The Ukrainians have taken the US made Abram tanks off the battlefield because they were losing them to drone strikes. Huge naval vessels are destroyed by sea drones. The UK are sending them a laser weapon that can shoot down multimillion pound missiles for the cost of 50p. The Ukranians are taking out the Russian air defences by attacking in a swarm with drones and missiles. The defence systems can't take everything out, so some get through and hit the target. Where does that leave the defence industry? Russia has been put on a war footing to mass produce weapons. The UK has no way of manufacturing anywhere near enough of anything if we had to do the same. We are sitting ducks. We have relied on a relatively small number of these big old style weapons and have given away our manufacturing capabilities. Just as we may desperately need steel works, we pay foreign nations to shut them down

Indeed, it's changed now, As well as Bradleys, the German leopard tanks have also been withdrawn because they are vulnerable. US HIMARS and ATACS are easily jammed by the Russians
Drones have rendered any mass movements of troops and equipment impossible.It's slowed down warfare so that only smaller troop movements are possible. Drones and cheap missiles can confuse air defences, it's what Israel recently found out when several Iran missiles got through it's iron dome and found their targets on the air fields
Russia is producing loads af equipment and ammo.It's out producing all the NATO. We can send all the equipment we like to the Ukraine, but they don't have the manpower, training or back up to operate them countries put together.Russia knows how to fight a modern war, NATO doesn't
The Uk and most of western Europe has inadequate air defences and are very vulnerable. The same goes for any US or Uk bases in the region.Like it or not, Russia is the strongest military in the world right now as they are geared up to war, NATO is not.

What a load of old cobblers. There have been recent problems with the jamming of HIMARS, but over the last two days ATACMS have been very effective with hits on air defences and a command centre.

HIMARS have been jammed easily, ATACMS, and storm shadow not so easily jammed, but still possible
Just as I said. HIMARS has been partially jammed but is still registering some hits, ATACMS continues to resist jamming and is doing very significant damage in Crimea and the other occupied areas. Your earlier statement that both had been jammed is untrue - as It a lot of what you post.

Himars, the wonder weapon which was going to change everything has been neutralised. ATACMS and storm shadow has proved more difficult to jam, Russia is working on a modified air defence missile to intercept these
