Admiral Rob Bauer, who serves as the principal advisor to NATO’s secretary general, also said that nations supplying weapons to Kyiv have the right to limit their use.

The US: This is the most important election of your entire life and if you vote wrong there will never be another election
Also the US: ensures there will never be another election anywhere by starting world war 3
Who invaded who?
The Russian Army is just removing Nazi influence from the Ukraine, Russian civilians did nothing wrong. No Ukrainian civilians have been killed, it’s all lies from the Nazis.

But was this ever a question? The problem was if they can use “gifted” weaponry for this purpose.
By international law they can use weapons supplied by other nations even for long range strikes into Russia yes, to my knowledge it’s just a gentleman’s agreement that they follow the terms of the nation supplying them. Not really a point of contention though as it would be idiotic to violate those terms at risk of not being supplied anymore.
The only point of contention is whether supplying nations should decide to allow strikes into Russia with their equipment because Russia continues to threaten that it would see that as an act of war from the supplying nation. So legally nothing wrong with it but you have to weigh that decision with possibility of starting World War III or a nuclear apocalypse.
I’d say we’re about to enter the cool zone, but I feel like we’ve been here for a while. Guess we’re entering the cool zone’s cool zone.
Very unlikely. There was a possibility early on that Putin would decide to go out with a fiery bang of glory, but time passed and nothing happened. He might threaten use of nukes, but won’t actually use them for fear of retaliation. The whole fucking point of nuclear weapons was deterrence until the brain-dead US decided to actually use them. One can hope the world learned their lesson.

When? That sounds like a very silly assessment
When he was hiding in a bunker from his own people.
Why are you presenting it as a fact when the article says
Movements of planes used by top Kremlin officials show Putin may be in a hideaway near Surgut in western Siberia, it is claimed.
Also “it is claimed” by the Ukrainian side. Do you have any Russian sources to corroborate this?
I stated my opinion and linked to the article that supports that assertion. If Russia was unhappy with that “claim” they could have refuted it by a simple image or video, which they didn’t do.
Do you have any Russian sources to corroborate this?
Lack of refuting from Russia is confirmation of that being the case in my eyes. If you need a detailed response from Russia’s spokesperson, then there isn’t one.
Putin is not a coward, he is brave, wise and strong.
He is leading the world into a better future. He will remove western influence from Afro-Eurasia and maybe even South America.
Even if it results in Russia retaliating against the west? Hopefully there’s an end to it all before then
Two and a half years into a 3 day invasion and Russia wants to attack NATO countries in retaliation for Ukraine using weapons gifted to them at their full capabilities after themselves receiving additional weapons from Iran they use without restraint? It’s a bold strategy, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for them.
3 day invasion
The idea that they planned for it to be 3 days was completely made up.
Let’s see if it pays off for them.
Quite the attitude to have when the west is losing wars on like 4 fronts (gaza, yemen, ukraine, and lebanon) simultaneously. That too while having shit military industrial capacity.
Yea, I’m sure it won’t work out for them, but you never know how desperate Putin can be. People say that he’s crazy but not stupid, but to wage war against the west after struggling with Ukraine? Yea, it’d be a bold strategy indeed
Every war is weird it’s own way, but that thing is probably unprecedented. How can a war-torn country fight having one hand strapped to the back with a country having 4x it’s population and resources? And still managing to resist after 2,5 to 10 years of warfare? Imagine that in fiction and you’d call it unbelievable.
Of course they do. That’s what happens when you invade someone, the someone you invade also hits back at you.
Same applies for Palestinians, Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam. You’d be totally fine with that.
right? right?
Absolutely! Imperialism is bad when Russia does it, and when American/Israel does it.
Nonono you’re not supposed to have principles, you’re supposed to just pick sides instead otherwise ‘what about USA’ won’t work as a gotcha. Just think of the poor tankies, whatabout USA is all they have, would you really tankie that away from them?
In fact this is basically the only way for the war to end. By capturing Russian territory Russia now has a reason to come to negotiations to just call everything off to get their land back.

Ukraine captured land in kursk and this did not cause the Russians to come to the negotiating table, nor signal that they will weaken their demands. In fact, they simply started taking land even faster in Ukraine because Ukraine had committed resources into kursk instead of the front lines.
All it goes to show is that westerners have a complete non-understanding of this war.
We have a strategy-god here everybody!
“Westerners” have a great understanding of this war. You cannot win a war by just defending your land from your own land.
Fuck russian terrorist shitheads.
Russia is just lucky the land is tied down or the farmers would have towed it back home…
