And that's saying a LOT, given how we've had Trump (narcist) and now Biden (demented fossil).

it's ironic that many of those countries that have would not cut economic ties with Russia, will soon suffer from famine caused by Russia's war.This may be of interest to some here :

I'm having trouble locating Mykolajivka on a map? Can someone supply a google maps link or GPS coordinates?

I think this means that MLRS are going to Ukraine but the munitions will not be the full suite. The munitions vary from approx 40km range to 400km range. I'm guessing only the shorter range stuff will be supplied, not enough to hit the Kerch bridge for example.So much for Biden giving Ukraine a key resource (MLRS) for the war against Ru:
U.S. will not send Ukraine rocket systems that can reach Russia, says Biden
Of course, given his mental acuity, he could forget tomorrow and say he will send them.
Kerch Bridge in Ukrainian territory (on the Ukrainian side of the Kerch Strait) is a legitimate target. In that area, the Russians are occupiers, and it is not internationally recognized Russian territory.I think this means that MLRS are going to Ukraine but the munitions will not be the full suite.

Memorial Day announcements should drive home the point that evil needs to be stopped. Thus, Biden was wrong to announce that today….makes him look even weaker than he is on the world stage.I think this means that MLRS are going to Ukraine but the munitions will not be the full suite.

USA and NATO are being very careful not to a) give casus belli for Russia to unleash a tactical nuke or b) claim this is a proxy NATO attack on ghe motherland or c) both. Equally the Ukraine appears to run its own autonomous target selection list and RoE and this is actually better given the NATO concern. However it means once a weapon goes across the border, then Ukraine is sovereign in control. So only way to minimise escalation risk is to be careful with actual munitions selected for shipment.
It is a hard world. Biden is doing fine.

Thank you for your service.Memorial Day announcements should drive home the point that evil needs to be stopped. Thus, Biden was wrong to announce that today….makes him look even weaker than he is on the world stage.
FWIW: NATO has taken sides…..Russia clearly knows that.
These are clearly weapons that Ukraine needs to stop RU‘s Eastern assault.
Also, most articles I’m seeing is that the units won’t be sent either (after articles floating (trial PR ballon perhaps) that they would be sent).
USMC veteran and sorry to the “disagree” tribalists, I’m not a fan of Biden‘s military (cough Afghanistan) and Presidential competence.
All of you military strategists who were going on about Russia having to pull out due to their depleted resources are looking funny right now. We even had one person in this very thread postulate that they would be out of viable artillery ammunition "in a couple of weeks" 8 weeks ago.
Don't believe me? Go back and start reading at page 10 or so and you will see how poorly this thread has aged. Stop living your fantasies out online and shame on the dolts who have fed in to your nonsense.

I don't doubt that some posters were hopeful and optimistic at the time. I expect they continue to be hopeful that Ukraine will prevail. However I am puzzled by the gleeful tone of your post. Are you pleased that they were wrong or are you happy that Ukraine has not prevailed? If the former it is childish and if the latter you should disclose your preference for the Russian invasion and state your arguments.All of you military strategists who were going on about Russia having to pull out due to their depleted resources are looking funny right now.

I found this allegedly intercepted phone call interesting. If it's correct then it describes a large group of Russian soldiers being threatened by some kind of Russian 'special forces' unit. They both pointed their weapons at each other while their commander where screaming and firing his gun. The Russian troops stood their ground. They are currently refusing to fight.
The Ukrainian General Staff reports that Ukraine has taken back Mykolajivka situated on the Dnepr river. If true – then they have split Head Fascist Putler's troops on the eastern side of the Dnepr river into two different areas. A bunch of Putler's troops have allegedly fled in panic as a result.
EDIT: Apparently there are two different Mykolajivka in this very region. So it's unfortunately still unclear which one they've taken. They might not have reached the village at the actual river...

Kerch Bridge in Ukrainian territory (on the Ukrainian side of the Kerch Strait) is a legitimate target. In that area, the Russians are occupiers, and it is not internationally recognized Russian territory.
Listening to this (translation) it actually feels Ukraine should play with Russia and push them back and forth to utrely grind them down, finish them, instead of trying to push them out of the Ukraine territory. The other countries subjugated by Russia will eventually rise up once the Russian army has been properly minched.
