Ukraine continues to fight both Putin And Trump. Europe has finally realized that USA is NOT negotiating for peace, rather trying to force Ukraine into giving up territory.
Moral in the Russian army is at rock bottom. Rusia is losing 35,000 men per month and has lost 1.25 million since the war began. Ukraine is beginning to push back on the ground, but continues to lose the air war agains drones and missiles. No matter how often Ukrine hits drone or missile site, they keep coming. The electrical grid is being destroyed as fast as it can be repaired.
EU has sent generators with reinforced concrete covers to provide electricity to critical places such as hospitals. My step-son in Zhovti Vody reports 8 hours of electricity yesterday, up from 2 hours.
Ukraine's air war focuses on destroying Russian refineries, storage and transport, to cut off Russian revenue and ability to fuel their equipment. In some places gasoline is rationed.
Here are a few articles to provide background and the current situation.

The USA is nobody's friend or ally these days. NOBODY'S. Except Putin's, of course.
ReplyDeleteYou said it, Debra. Putin's, Orban's and everyother dictator.
DeleteSo much Death and destruction over one Madman's Ego... and I fear our Madman and his Ego have begun something equally devastating in Iran. The USA I agree with Debra, isn't anyone's Friend or Ally these days with this corrupt and evil led Regime.
ReplyDeleteYou are right and it is getting worse
DeleteI was going to ask you what happened to the blogger who criticized Putin but couldn't remember his name (Ilya Remeslo). I asked Google and answered my own question - he's now in a psychiatric hospital. USA isn't there yet but they're working on it. Bovino said a year ago they would deport 100 million. There are 14 million undocumented people in America. Who will make up the balance? Here's a clue: a week ago Trump wrote “Now with the death of Iran, the greatest enemy America has is the Radical Left, Highly Incompetent, Democrat Party!” So basically anyone who doesn't blindly support him will be declared a domestic terrorist and can be kidnapped and detained without trial.
ReplyDeleteThere are 65 million Hispanics (brown people) in USA. They are for whom the concentration camps are being built. They are not yet death camps but a great many people will die in them
