^ I have learned so much that you shouldn't base your countries economy on one income only-In this case gas and oil. A fall in prices on gas and/or oil, will be tuff for the Russian economy.
Secondly-Europe is working on being independent from gas and oil. As well as the Ukrainian government is threating to shut down the pipeline(s)who goes through Ukraine.

They also sell weapon to some allied, but this isn't enough.

Every failure is a step towards mastering it.

In fact they already had to drop their prices for gas and oil. But it seems this did not hurt them - they just sold more of the stuff, and back in the game they were.

-------------

It is reported that Wuhledar is about to fall. Even Ukrainian sources indicate there is not much more that can be done. Psychologically a huge defeat for Ukraine, the city became a symbol of resistence. Troop morale will suffer a hit.

In defence mode you lose ground each day, however you inflict huge damage on the attacking forces and for how long can Russia keep on sending troops to this meatgrinder in Ukraine ?

It has also a negative effect on the morale to lose ground each day and not being able to change course and go from defence to offensive.

These 60bn was only a one-time payment and if you compare on how many citizens who live in USA and in Denmark, you will see that the Danes pay as much as the American do, if not more.

There are around 6 million Danes and there is around 333 million Americans.

Markus Denmark is in the top 5 of countries that support Ukraine with other small countries they head the coalition of first that give support without any question. As Dutch, I say we are in the vanguard of countries that give aid publicly and in the rear respect.

I know, I could however not let it stay unanswered.
If you compare the number of citizens in his and my country I would say the Danes pay a few bucks more than his countries Americans does.

And there will come more military aid from Denmark in the future.
Even USA will, until the election, send military aid to Ukraine-How it's gonna look after the election no one knows.

Valid Points.

https://www-focus-de.translate.goog/..._x_tr_pto=wapp


And that video on that poll that 50% of Russians claimed to wish for Russia loosing the wall - I dont believe that, the answer to why the results arfe like this must be in badly maintained methodology. I stick to my earlier and repeated statements that Putin is believed by most, by the very big majority in Russia, because his narrative is believed in, and it is shared, and because they crave the imagined Sovjet "glory" of the past and they do not have too much access to "news" that is not coming from the Kremlin. I think the war was not much wanted in the beginnignm but oince it started in full, I expect that an attitude took over that could be described as "now we got ourselves into this mess, we must now do all what is possible to at least win it."

Russia modifies Shahed drones with Starlink antennas
Ukrainian forces have reportedly destroyed a Russian Shahed-136 long-range attack drone equipped with a Starlink satellite communication terminal. The terminal is believed to provide a stable satellite communication link for the transmission of data, such as photos, videos, and telemetry information, potentially enhancing the drone’s effectiveness in reconnaissance and strike missions. The discovery, first reported by Ukrainian military sources, raises questions about Russia’s use of commercial satellite technology to improve the operational flexibility of its unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). One possible application of the Starlink-equipped drone is to enable real-time control of the Shahed UAV during reconnaissance missions. This would allow operators to adjust their targeting based on live intelligence gathered in proximity to the objective... https://defence-blog.com/russia-modi...link-antennas/

We are gonna see a lot of technical progress and perhaps development of new weapon system and we are going to see weapons getting obsolete.
