"Why do you need to wait for these two months? Why don't you do it immediately?

๐Ÿ”Š Lavrov believes "this is the essence of EU diplomacy in the Middle East."

๐Ÿณ๏ธ Poland's army faces โ€˜MAJOR PROBLEMS with supplies and repairsโ€™ โ€“ Polish General

๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œIn case of war, the route from Korea to Poland may take TWO MONTHS. So what โ€“ weโ€™ll WAIT TWO MONTHS to fix a broken tank until the war is over?โ€ Polish General Andrzej Tuz, former commander of the 12th Mechanized Brigade, admitted on the podcast Fronty Wojny that Warsawโ€™s reliance on foreign equipment may be fatal in case of war.

According to the Polish news agency Onet, Polandโ€™s arsenal is a patchwork of South Korean K2s, American Abrams, German Leopards, and leftover Soviet T-72s. Tuz mocked the absurdity:
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œWith so many platforms, we need a SEPARATE repair team for each.โ€

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US skips UNSC statement on 2008 war

For the first time since the five-day war of 2008, Washington did not join a joint declaration at the UN Security Council condemning Russia.

At the August 19 session, several members โ€” including the UK, France, Slovenia, Denmark, Greece, and incoming member Latvia โ€” issued a joint statement. The US was not listed among the signatories โ€” a first in 17 years.

Georgiaโ€™s Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze earlier admitted that the actions of Tbilisiโ€™s leadership in 2008, under Mikheil Saakashvili, triggered the conflict.

The five-day war began when Georgian forces launched a massive artillery strike on Tskhinval, the capital of South Ossetia, followed by a ground assault with tanks and infantry. Russian peacekeepers were killed, and residential areas were destroyed.

Russia intervened to protect its citizens and peacekeepers, forcing Georgia to halt its offensive within days. Later, both the EUโ€™s investigation and the European Court of Human Rights confirmed that it was Georgia, not Russia, that initiated the war.

โŒ๐Ÿ’ธ Seven budgets just to pay the dead?

If the leaked figure of 1.7 million Ukrainian military losses is confirmed, Kiev would owe families of the fallen over 25.5 trillion hryvnias ($630+ billion), Sputnik found.

Thatโ€™s more than three times Ukraineโ€™s GDP and equal to seven entire state budgets โ€” money Kiev simply doesnโ€™t have.

At $360,000 promised per dead soldier, Ukraine has literally dug itself into a financial black hole. Without Western cash handouts, even pensions and salaries are barely covered โ€” let alone payouts for the mountains of people Zelensky keeps sending to the front.

๐Ÿคก Kievโ€™s business model: fight to the last man, then send the bill to Uncle Sam.
