U.S. Sends Ukraine New Weapons Systems Every Day, Says WH Adviser
I live near an airport that houses an Air National Guard transport wing. All I can say is that ever since the invasion, the military cargo planes flying in and out of the airport has increased tenfold.
Thanks for not complaining for noises. Only thing I do is filling up my gas guzzler without complaining...
Yep, I saw comments from someone in the military saying the airport in Poland may as well be renamed to put 'Airbase' at the front of the name because the rate of C-17's landing there is constant all day long.
Military practices exercises here, haven’t heard a shot fired, no bombing missions nothing. That means we are not going inside Ukraine
@@jjl1790 Yes. Same. I refuse to complain about the gas prices and just try to manage. We walk anywhere we can (which is hard because I live rurally) and keep all shopping trips (etc.) to a day where we are doing a much of other things - once to twice a week if possible. Not ONLY because of the cost, but also because I don't want to contribute to demand that drives up cost.
Support a no fly zone that what we can all do and say no we allow Putin to scare you
So, those British anti-ship weapons systems "ARE" being provided now. That's good news. I've been wondering about that. Slava Ukraini!
ahhhh. its no fun when the rabbit have a gun.
Great job Great Britain.
💪🏼💪🏽🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🏽💪🏼
Only a two weeks late
I‘m wondering what anti-ship missiles the UK can provide.
I don’t think that the British military currently has land based anti-ship missiles, maybe they buy them from a manufacturer.
Slave Nazi 🇺🇦Ukraine!!!
Send them more. Tanks, jets, guns, everything they need to go on the offensive and drive Russia out of their territory.
Yes we must fight Putin fascism and give Ukrainians all they want ,They are fighting for our freedom too.
They need pilots trained on similar jets in order not to fly them into the ground. They are a corrupt backward country with an average GDP of 3k / year and have one naval frigate.
@@-whackd Which is what they were gonna do, send them MIG's then they pulled out.
@@user-lp8ur5qn3o "They" being the Poles. They should get to it already and stop wimping out.
@@-whackd You have fundamentally misunderstood something. The only thing that is correct, is the information about income. Corruption is lower than in Russia and has improved steadily in recent years. It is also only slightly below average in a country comparison. And Ukraine doesn't need or want pilots. It only needs old Russian MIGs, which its pilots can already fly and with which they achieve good results against the Russian aggressors. There are just too few aircraft. And what is your argument about the frigate? Nobody wants ships for Ukraine.
Good news. The Ukrainians have shown they are braver and more resilient than anyone would have expected. The Russian army conversely ineffective
Russia should be voted out from five permanent Security Council or ban the security council to create a post Russia Ukraine war of a security council like a new "World International Democratic Council" for peace. To guarantee that no cross border war will ever happen again!
You think? Take a look at the civilians, dead, shown today as Zewlynsky addressed United Nations, and get back to me? Look at the destruction in Ukraine and explain how Ukraine has destroyed Russian war machine. Get back to me after all this is said and done in the coming months. Putin, the meanass, is holding the free world hostage by way of threatening nuclear devastation on any nation who dare to intervene. There is no chance for nuclear war, there is only a "when nuclear bombs are unleashed on us! And, if Ukranians continue putting up (a very brave and courageous fight!) their winning battles, I do not doubt that asswipe, Putin, with nuke a city within Ukraine. I say all this not with easy words, but as Truth. For what has, is, and will be happening not only angers me, but does, so too, break my heart knowing that the common folks in Ukraine have been and are suffering and dying because of Putin, and his leader, Satan himself!
It'd be hilarious if they did a reverse Stalingrad and chased them all the way back to Moskov.
Unfortunately the Russian military won't be stupid forever and they're beginning to move their troops into a higher concentration on one side of the country.
After the hundreds of murders around Kyev and the massacre in bucha oh, they've withdrawn their troops and removing them to the east.
I think this is headed into an escalation of war with the West it may be three months it might be six months but there's a much higher risk now.
After 2014 government change in Ukraine by USA, they sold Ukraine to Rothschild and Comp. and started HOMOSEXUAL PARADES, AND NOW THEY BROUGHT UKRAINE TO THE STATE OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH!!!! PUTIN = TRUMP = AN ANGEL OF GOD!!!!
One thing is for sure. If they get the Russian out now they are not going to get in again.
Absolutely!
Glad to see an admission regarding what we say publicly not being the whole story. The Ukrainians need to be able to surprise the Russians, especially since the Russians have lost all element of surprise in this match.
Truer words never spoken. MAGAts never a proper rebuttal for this. Incoming whataboutisms in 3...2... 1... ❄
Yes you are right, I beleive that even in the East where Russia is focusing, the result will be the same for Ukranians, they will win this war and take out the Russians from their beautiful country. I will be in line to invest in Ukraine to rebuild the lost cities.
It seems like we are getting less and less recent news.
@@Madmen604 For more recent and fuller news, Ukraine and a few other European media have it. I have ceased observing the non-news drivel so popular in majpr US media with all its speculation, instead of present reality.The Russian media is so completely disinformation that i no longer watch that.
You will notice that the NATO and EU statistics nearly parallel Ukraine's honest reportage, while US errs massively, as if attempting to do its Trumpist "both-siding."
It was marvelous that Biden wrote that Murdoch, the Australian nazi-type, who immigrated and bought Fox, turning it into a Trumpist Putin-puppet and socially destructive disinformation outlet, was arguably the world's most dangerous man, though Rupert handed off his fascist network to his fascist son, Lachlan.
No actual response by FCC or US government at all on ending the lie and propaganda-spewing Fox, though.
And less recent news may be in part because Russia has killed numerous reporters in Ukraine. Up to 22 according to some sources. This prevents timely reportage.
@@Madmen604 Fog of war. Ukraine will not tell the Ruskies what they have and what they are doing. It is so sad so many young men on both sides are losing their lives. But I hope for a surprising trap that destroys a large part of the Russian forces. Glory to Ukraine.
Greetings from Ukraine. Thank you for support. We need your help. We want our land will be free and safe.
Slava Ukraine from 🇬🇧

Give them everything you can. Make the russians pay.
You realize everything in Bucha was staged by the Ukraine right? Easy way to manipulate emotions and get people against Russia. The real warm criminals are Zelensky and Brandon. Russia loves America and president trump. 🥰
@@j.p.jackman4848 given the fact that the russians never held human rights in high regard I very much doubt that. It is common knowledge that they blame that what they did on others and later come up with more and more convoluted stories afterwards. That few days "special operation" already takes several weeks and cost the russians countless lifes and material as well as any last prestige they had and for what? Nazis? Bioweapons? Genocide? I lost track of all their supposed reasons.
I hope so, tyrants respect power, and nothing else.
Go Ukraine❤️🇺🇦🇺🇸
Go Ukraine , you are proxy army of USA ! We will fighting to last Ukraine soldier...
this says US.general !
Support 100%. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇦🇺🇦
It’s a good return for the US. The Javelin and Stinger missiles are a fraction of the cost of the weapon systems that they’re destroying.
And the UK/Sweden also. NLAWs seem very effective. Haven't heard how effective the Carl Gustafs have been but they've been around for decades and are well proven.
It's the small things that can matter the most ... commercial drones and parts, 3D printers, night vision goggles ... these are things groups of civilians are providing that are making a real impact. For example: Apparently the Russians haven't invested in night vision ... that opens up a world of tactical advantages for Ukraine.
they actually use French night vision equipement ! They were able to buy 24 googles in the last 5 years...
Wait, that may be not enough
u.s. Promoting evils by sending weapons would not help solve the problem,
That was a good hit on the USSR fuel depo😁 do it again & again 😎
As far as I'm concerned, we can multiply our aid to Ukraine x100. Best money we ever spent, especially when you compare it to the trillions we blew in Iraq and Afghanistan.
100% Correct!
So true.
True. This money is well spend.
Agree!
I think the majority of U.S. taxpayers do not pay to fund a foreign country's military. We need the basics here and we don't get it, no $ to foreign govts who have no say in dipping their hand in our pockets!
Russia got its Bucha talking point from Alex Jones. "Crisis Actors."
It is all part and parcel of the same propaganda talking points. Rupert Murdoch uses them, see Fox Propaganda.
Hope that the International Court moves faster than the US Judicial system when putting criminals in jail.
Yeah. Just like the trumpists. Rather telling.
@@qualicumwilson5168
Just don't let Trump get back in charge, he's got a habit of pardoning war criminals. Especially those turned in by their own navy seal comrades as a matter of honour!!!!!!
He should be hanged if he said that.
"He is a Genius!!" "He is Savvy!!" "He is Smart!!" "He declared the area as Independent how Wonderful is that!!" Famous Words of the Twice Impeached Insurrectionist.
Every sentence and idea out of Trump on one day, is followed the next day by the exact opposite.
You are suffering from terminal TDS.... you have to be put down !
A wannabe Oligarch. Needs to be sanctioned too!
trump is putins mussolini
Makes me feel better to know that we’re providing necessary arms do that they can push Putin’s lambs back where they came from. I hope it’s very affective in destroying their armies and stopping the genocide that’s being committed by those criminals.
"makes you feel better" ..supporting WAR & America directly arming NAZIS!!!
Disgraceful.
It seems you ignore that usa/cia trained NAZIS financed them and impose them in the Ukranian government. Hunter Biden financed the 30 bio-labs just like the Wuhan that let go the covid-19. They attacked durintg 8 years the population in Donbass (who have lived there for centuries). They want this war against Rusia in order to rob their resources, the same thing they have done all over the world. The comedian/actor sold out the people of ukraine - they did not want to attack the russian population. This is an external war, from the beginning. I really hope and look forward for the evil govt in usa is brought to its knees! Evil people, manipulators, abusive people.
Putin’s orcs actually
It should be nothing to do with how you or anyone feels. Can't you see that the fact that MSNBC is telegraphing to the Russians what NATO is doing is totally crazy. Who does that in war? NOT Giving out war secretes to the enemy is rule number one. Civilians do not need to know what is going on on the ground in detail. Crazy world where all the news agencies are getting paid by the Russian federation to leak defence info. Sad and totally crazy. 22 years in the army ad the news agencies are clearly getting worse and worse.
No, we aren't 3D. Biden is only sending ~$100M worth of weapons. That equals LESS than cost of 6 US main battle tanks. What a fcking joke. That paltry amount will do NOTHING. This proves beyond ANY doubt that Biden WANTS Russia to win.
💀 RUSSIAN SOLDIERS.....20,001.....REST IN PIECES 💀
It's probably over 20000 by now.
Ok Americans - if you dont vote, this is what we get. Stop Trump now before he thinks it is genius to treat Americans like Putin treats his people. Dont be a lazy Puck - go vote midterms! (mythical, not misspelling. :)
You mean like MANDATING injections or lose your job? That kind of treatment?
Well said! I 100% agree, Independents and Democrats, which make up ~78% of American voters, need to rally behind the Dems and vote them in and stop Trump and Repubs, their fascism, lies and support of Russia.
Why is voting not compulsory like it is here? It is your duty as a citizen to vote. If you don't you will be fined !
@Ace OfSpades still denying it. Now that is stupid.
@Ace OfSpades just stop worrying about body autonomy! Lol you are so brainwashed.
This is very reassuring, I'm glad to hear that everyone is still supplying everything we can. Putin MUST lose, we have to ensure that his forces suffer a humiliating defeat in Ukraine. The consequences of Putin succeeding in Ukraine are unimaginable.
We also need to make sure that every Russian guilty of war crimes is held accountable. I don't care how we do it, send special units into Russia to extract them if necessary. We have to make sure there is a trial and that these animals are imprisoned.
Mr. Zelensky did second for the UN Security Councel what I have said weeks before. That russian troops act like ISIS. I have said they are ISIS, only in cyrillic alphabets, ИСИС. And Russia has been a long while the largest terrorist camp ever in history. Now the regime has abandonded their masks, and is at war on the two fronts. They've invaded both Ukraine and russian minds, respectively, those maniacs have taken their own nation hostage and use it as a human shield to prevent any interventions whatsoever.
Putin lose. He'll use nukes. I don't think u really want him to lose.
Sadly the reality is that Putin is getting help from China so they will still have weapons etc.
They must be executed in public to make an example prison is just to light and redundant eye for an eye brother
No nato special forces in Ukraine or Russia !!! Are u crazy? This can turn into a nuclear war
Russia is about to launch a major pincer offensive across the open flat plains of eastern Ukraine. Javelins are effective in urban warfare, but not here. Ukraine presently doesn't have the number of tanks and air cover they need to stop the Russians and prevent half of the Ukrainian army being surrounded and eventually shelled and bombed to death. This will happen within weeks, so let's stop talking about sanctions and war crimes, and start equipping the brave Ukrainians with with what they need NOW. Call your Senators and Representatives in Washington.
yep. the javelins are great but Ukraine has to bring it to the Russians with mobility and ground arms.
yep, exactly as some of our generals said regarding the terrain in the east.
It's good to see that there's someone on the ball at the White House. Kudos to Mr. Miller!
Fake administration....
Destroy Russian Ammo, Supply, and Fuel depots. Attack Supply ships and any flowing cargo.
Not on this!
They need Tanks and artillery, and planes!
Keep it coming!
Thank you biden
we've sent 2 billion dollars worth of military aid since the war started. That's great and all, but we were spending 9 billion per month in Iraq, a conflict which was arguably far less consequential than this one.
Harder and more expensive to supply a war in the middle of an undeveloped/underdeveloped desert than it is to get things into a relatively prosperous country
This isn't Iraq, and there are restrictions to what we can supply based on the military capabilities of Ukraine and the equipment they use. We cant just send apaches and f16s over like there are Ukrainians who can fly them
@@Slim_Ch4rles So train Ukrainians to use them. And start training them yesterday, so that when they are trained, they can be useful in battle.
@@michaelbennett7561 a soldier who is training is a soldier who isn’t fighting. Training on advanced systems is not like training to aim and fire a rifle. It can take a year or two to learn many of the systems that would be game changing. It’s much more cost effective to give them what we have that they can use without much training.
@@michaelbennett7561 that would be great if we could do that, but do you know how long that would take? It's not a time for training programs, Ukraine needs its pilots in the fight before it's too late. Some countries do have vehicles they're familiar with but even getting those to them seems to be a challenge for Nato since they don't want to escalate tensions further with new precedents. Aircraft can be used offensively to strike deep into Russian territory, making it a risky proposition to just give them over. There are many more reasons that make it a complicated thing to do, but that's the main point to consider
Question for the genius: Why is that bridge that connects Crimea to Russia still standing to resupply Crimea? Asking for a friend.
accidents happen....
THANKS USA
*When America is governed correctly (the President Biden administration) America is a Great country! Thank-you President Biden and all of those working so hard to correct these evils that putin has wrought!*
Considering what Trump "handed" to him Biden has done outstanding. We do need to up the ante' in Ukraine. If all of the bordering countries of Russia did Special Ops like a couple of nights ago by some "unknown" entity in Belograde Russia would be stressed militarily and would have to retreat because they cant win on even one front at a time. Bomb the railroads.
Exactly we shouldn't know whats going in. If we know then Russia Knows.
Even without news reports, countries do have intelligence agencies like C.I.A. and K.G.B. for example. They know more than the public is ever aware of.
I hope that we have (I'm Canadian - so speaking from that position) started supplying equipment that'll bring the war to Russians more. I'd like to see some longer range missile options that'll allow the Ukrainians to reach military targets within Russia.
No escalation.
Why aren't we arming them better? Tanks, JETS, etc.
Those require a lot of training for pilots/drivers, mechanics etc. to use them.
That’s why if such weapon systems get sent they’re usually old weapon systems that are already used by Ukraine.
Ukraine bought 56 former East German BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles from a Czech Company some days ago.
It seems that Ukraine is also receiving stuff like some T-72 tanks from European NATO countries.
According to reports, they are getting tanks. I would not be surprised if they are getting jets. But we can't just send them anything. Take the Patriot missile system - it takes a crew of 90 men and requires months of training to use it. We can't just send in F-16's for example - they would not know how to fly or maintain them.
@@HingerlAlois
I should have read your post first and saved myself the trouble.
The Stinger Missile System was the deciding factor in the defeat of the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. They are easy to train someone within an hr. on how to point, aim & shoot. The rocket propelled projectile is heat seeking and when it hits the top of the Russian tank, the munitions inside explode sending those Russian soldiers to Kingdom Come with them not knowing what hit them & with no time for pain. The Javelins are updated & even better.
You US are supplying new weapons to Ukraine instead of urging Zelensikyy to surrender and stop the war. The Ukrainian are dying in thousands and US have no mercy for them
Lol the stinger is not an anti tank missile it's a shoulder fired SAM or surface to air missile used against low flying ground support aircraft it doesn't have the right explosive charge for tanks. However the javelin is an anti tank missile designed specifically for modern tanks with ERA or explosive reactive armor. The predecessors to the Javelin are the LAWS and AT4 shoulder fired systems.
Also stingers and juvelins in Nazi hands can attack commercial plane one day! More fire in Europe!!
@@marknixon5958
Saved me the trouble - thanks.
@@user-nm6fo5lc5m what are you talking about
"Here's some weapons, the ammo for them, instructions on how to use it. But we can't get involved." I love this world of rules and technicalities we've built for ourselves.
It's already Americans and other veterans there from different countries that know how to use those weapons and can easily train people plus many Ukrainians in the armed forces already know how to use most of the weapons because we helped train them for 8 years.
@@violetsrayreikishop2 His point is that we're substantially involved but we say that we can't be involved.
You want americans to die to defend a foreign territory and most likely start ww3?
Lusid .... Agree with you .... That's just 🐂💩 ‼️ Meanwhile innocent people are getting murdered and Ukraine is burning 😪😪😪😪😪😪😪‼️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦❤️🇺🇦❤️
West cannot be involved in Ukraine. That can lead to Russians using tactical nukes to attack Ukrainian cities. Supplying weapons is the way to go...
I think allied forces need to put out a statement that lines have been crossed youre on notice
They already know that!
That is good to hear. It is help Ukraine really needs to eject the Russian blight.
We technically don't have troops on the ground but we are technically in the war
Does "technically don't have troops on the ground" exclude Special Forces? I would be astonished if US, UK and Israeli Special Forces were not there in numbers.
@@richardcory5024 There are "Advisors" on the ground and seeing from the air. The U.S. and allies are participating with plausible deniability. It will be interesting to find out the number of "former" Special Operations personnel from the various countries who've found their ways there?
@@oscarballard7911 Well, we recall that they offered "a ride" to Zelensky at the outbreak of the war and he refused but no doubt they haven't gone very far. You do wonder if such forces were not involved in the defence of Kyiv, including the airport, where the Russians lost a lot of their own Special Forces. It had the hallmarks of a very professional operation, a very effective ambush. All they have to do is put on a Ukrainian uniform.
Yeah, it's a matter of time before the nukes start flying in retaliation for our involvement.
@@oscarballard7911 From what I can remember, all military advisors left before the invasion started. Officially, there are no foreign military personnel in the country. Private citizens who happen to have served in the military previously excluded.
If you have any sources saying otherwise, please state them.
It's beginning to look like Ukraine actually has a chance to defeat Russia in this war. They have shown much greater ability to adapt on the fly and develop strategies that are making the Russians look incompetent. Besides weaponry, I believe it's the intel that we and our partners are sharing with Ukraine that is making a great difference.
Lt Gen Hertling thinks Ukraine will win in the east
Who do you suppose "trained" them?
True. I also think a huge part of them succeeding, is that they’ve been preparing for years. Russia invaded Crimea in 2014, many Ukrainians consider that the start of the war. The whole context of the “do me a favor”-Trump-call, was Zelenskyy wanting to buy weapons to defend against Russia. They’ve been training their military heavily since Crimea, often with help from NATO-countries, they’ve been stocking up on all weapons - and they’ve had time to make plans, to mentally prepare themselves. To become a nation united in resisting. There’s a reason we saw Ukrainian grandmas making Molotov cocktails on day 2. They saw this coming.
*No amount of American weapons assistance to Ukraine is going to stop the Russians. Only American boots on the ground in that country will make Putin stop this atrocity.*
Do the rough math.
43 million population
21 million males.
6 million between 18-65 who are all dedicated and determined to save their country.
Russia 190k to start
15k Syria
20k Additional
15k dead
30k injured
Balance 180k mainly conscripts who are obviously not up to the challenge.
Bulk of conscripts were due to be released this month after serving 1 year. They are being FORCED to stay on and fight.
Half of the weapons they are getting we know nothing about.
They better be getting a gundam or something
We need to continue to support Ukraine fully! President Zelenskyy's requests/list should be provided ASAP! I sure hope the WH Nat'l Security Council, Matt Miller is reporting correctly and truthfully on this matter. Time is of the essence here!
Now THIS is what I've been hoping for! Get them more! Air drop mobile hospital, tanks, humvees. Let them push the Russians back into their own territory and take back Crimea.🇺🇦🇺🇸
First the temporarily occupied eastern territories, then Crimea, and let's liberate Kaliningrad while we're at it.
But now that they got an airport back in their control (Antonov airport), i think it's the best time to provide them the fighter jets they would need!
If you want the US to send more military support ASAP to Ukraine, contact the office of President Biden and your members of Congress (Senators and Representatives) and tell them how you feel! Just saying it on youtube messages isn't gonna make it happen.
Good. I was kind of on the fence but after seeing Bucha... I dont know how anyone can be on the fence at this point.
Germany inherited huge amounts of soviet era weaponry from East Germany at reunification that they still have somewhere. Handing it over to the Ukrainians would also be doing Germany a favour not having to pay for storage and guarding all this equipment any more.
That was 30 years ago - there is a good chance these system are trash by now.
@@Shuizid Germany is not Russia. Germans look after their weapons. They oil them up, wrap them lovingly in grease paper and place them gently into wooden boxes. The vehicles are placed on chocks to take the weight off the tyres, the spark plugs are removed and the cylinders are filled with oil to stop rust. And everything it stored in dry, climatised warehouses. These weapons will be as new as the day they were put into storage.
@@mikethespike7579 This sounds nice, though as I am living in germany, we got quite some scandals around faulty military equipment in the last couple years - including both stupid investments and a lack of maintenance.
So while I'd love to say we treasure our stuff, that might not exactly be the truth.
Also I honestly have no idea what happened with the east-german military after the reunion - if it was integrated or disbanded due to the risk of ideological differences.
@@Shuizid I'm German on my late mother's side and have relatives who were serving in the East German Volksarmee at the time of reunification. The lower ranks were all integrated into the new Bundeswehr, but officers had to go through a strict vetting process. My 2 uncles, officers in that army, were accepted (I didn't know I even had 2 East German uncles until reunification). But they told me at least 80% of officers were given their papers and a state pension.
I have an acquaintance who used to serve in the Bundeswehr guarding the stockpiles of former East German weaponry and he told me how it was all well looked after. He was dismissed out of the army after he shot an intruder dead trying to break into one of the warehouses who didn't stand down when challenged. In the US my acquaintance would have got a medal and a promotion.
@@mikethespike7579 Ah interesting to know, thanks for the info ^^
Sending the higher ups on pension while integrated the lower ranks certainly sounds like a way to deal with such a merge.

Normally the russians hate the GOP, but with Trump they actually helped and supported him. Very odd and suspicious.
During the Korean and Vietnam Wars, Soviet pilots would often fly against UN and US pilots but they were able to maintain plausible deniability by fighting over controlled territory. That wouldn't be a bad option for NATO pilots over Ukraine.
The US is also sending powerful prayers and thoughts.
Get those weapons to the Ukrainians now!!
No.
@@TheChopf26 thank goodness no one cares what you think
The US have not been leading on this, it has been the UK defence minister Ben Wallace
( an ex Scots Guards Captain) who got 2000 NLAW's out to Ukraine in January. The US
needs to allow the MiG's delivery and become more proactive.
The US has provided $1.5 Bn so far in weapons but recall they left $80bn to the Taleban
in Afghanistan.
They need urgent fighter jets.
After Russia and to some extent also countries like China have shown their true element. For example, most of the countries in democratic Europe need to upgrade their defense capabilities.
90 percent of what is produced in the Swedish defense companies is exported. The Swedish defense will be upgraded for another 3.2 billion US dollars, but the Swedish defense industry is already strained, and the order books are filled for a long time to come.
All in all, this is a problem for all those in need of renewal and strengthening of their defense capabilities. A problem that the free western world needs to find a common solution to.
We won't get time to strengthen our defence. We'll be in a nuclear confrontation within weeks.

@@Tuber-nature They wont get involved, at least not right now. They cant get involved. If they do a war between NATO and russia will begin. That will lead to a nuclear war which later on will lead to the whole world blowing up and life disapearing from the planet. Were doing everything we can right now.
@@Tuber-nature the conflict in the east goes on for 8 years now. There are more than 4000 people dead since 2014 , this does not include the past 6 months. I think Nato will not go in so this war is going to continue for a long time.
Massive US weapon supply is critical for Ukraine to have a chance to defeat Russia.
Should of sent them before they attacked Ukraine 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
“We just left Moscow,” Trump said. “He [Putin] could not have been nicer. He was so nice and so everything. But you have to give him credit that what he’s doing for that country in terms of their world prestige is very strong.”
In the same interview, Trump praises Putin’s invasion of Crimea. “Well, he’s done an amazing job of taking the mantle,” Trump said. “And he’s taken it away from the President, and you look at what he’s doing. And so smart. When you see the riots in a country because they’re hurting the Russians, OK, ‘We’ll go and take it over.’ And he really goes step by step by step, and you have to give him a lot of credit.”
Pathetically unpatriotic yet the MAGA movement carries on about Hunter Biden's laptop totally oblivious to the treason #45 has committed.
@Atheos B. Sapien Still does.
This is the republican party speaking as well. This is what Americans will get if they vote red!
Trump is a traitor to this country!
@@democracy189 😂😂😂😂😂 and if you vote blue you're destroying this country while ending our independence and handing over our sovereignty to globalists.
Give them Jets!!!
They need jets and fighters.
Yeah well we cant do that right now. Be realistic and stop being so ignorant. Were doing everything we can right now, without the whole world blowing up with nuclear.
If any country on Earth would know how to fight a naval war, it would be Britain. God love the British. Godspeed.
I thought that after Biden publicly stated that Putin had to go, NATO would grow some balls and send in troops to end this catastrophe (which it should have done at the start even though there was no legal obligation to do so) Morally, we all have a duty to stand up and be counted when a bully turns up and starts cherry picking the weakest opposition.
Why dont you grow some balls and go volunteer yourself to the Ukranian army?
o forgot your are another armswheelchair keyboard general typing from the warmth of your house.
NATO still has concern about a nuclear strike on European soil. Putin is insane and has his nuclear codes on speed dial
That just shows how little the rest of the world pays attention to our Confused Dear Leader.
Anyone who wants to send in NATO troops is a war mongering pos. Why do want to spark global neculear warfare?
Don't you know about the doctrine of MAD(mutually assured destruction) and the reason we've only fought proxy wars with other nuclear powers since WWll? You seem very willing to gamble the world on your confidence the Russian madman won't hit the button. Escalating misunderstanding has already brought us too close for comfort in the past, even over misunderstood military exercises.
they need optics, binoculars, radios, underwear, everything
Get those monsters after all the evil they have caused
So what about the rest of us that needs food homes and free healthcare?
As a tax paying Englishman, I am more than happy with the decision of my Government to send shed loads of weapons to the Ukrainians, I'll even write on each one as a message to the Russians...🇬🇧🇺🇸🇧🇧✌✌
That is so cool to hear ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Slava Ukraine Слава Україні! 🙏💛💙🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
" Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me"
Thank you America for all you do for the least of us.
This country Ukraine is 28x smaller than the Bully Russia- Putin is a disgrace. All countries should continue to help Ukraine with food, clothes, necessities and weapons, and any other financial support.
Good news to help Ukrainian people
All we did when Hitler started his reign of terror was send supplies. It wasn’t enough. It didn’t slow him down. It took troops. The UN needs to send in troops or Putin will complete his genocide. If it wasn’t for Japan we would be speaking German today.
Funny that you mentioned this since the U.S. is now arming Neo-Nazis in Ukraine, emboldening white supremacists across Europe. This cannot end well.
But still denies them the MIGs ?
Well the issue was that sending them and announcing it publicly would provoke russia. Hence why there was push back by some media organisations for the WH to stop announcing what they were sending. Like the US could have sent Ukraine MiGs if they werent trying to announce it beforehand. Hopefully they can send MiGs now that the WH is being more ambiguous with their weapon shipments.
The Ukrainian military cannot use the fixed wing aircraft they currently have because of the remaining Russian capabilities in theater - giving them more aircraft they cannot use doesn't make sense. Giving them all the tools to shoot down the Russian aircraft and missiles makes far more sense right now.
You don’t really know if they’re not getting them, surreptitiously. You’re also assuming they have enough qualified pilots to fly all of them. Openly handing them over in total would be stupid. There isn’t a place in Ukraine where they could be stored and protected out of missile range of Russian forces. It would be best to have them in the possession of the former Soviet satellite nations where they can be protected, serviced and made ready when Ukraine loses one to combat and/or wear and tear.
@@fishdog5253 Take notice how you just gave an honest challenge.. right or wrong for either of us.. Juxtaposed to the other two who will say anything, using tribalism, just to defend Biden.. over the lives of people, or the sovereignty of a nation being invaded... Gee, I wonder why so much of the US and nearly all major cities, and certainly ALL urban core jurisdictions-100% lorded over by one party are in dystopian conditions..
@@NHLblkgurl I support Biden, but yea I agree. I just want everyone on the internet to start talking like actual human beings dude, and not sound so condescending all the time. Like just tone down the modality a bit.
Give Ukraine what they actually need. Finally!
in regard to a no fly zone. we don't impose a no fly zone however if we give the ukraines enough surface to air missiles they can impose a no fly zone, simply by making it very dangerous to fly there. putin is a war criminal. he will only stop if stopped. as for that send ukraine everything. i think bucha will make a lasting impression on the world against putin.
Ukraine is a free test for any country new weapons !
As long as it helps them and hurts Russia.
There needs to be an avalanche of the ‘proper’ weapons for the Ukrainian military about to engage with the Russian military in the Donbas.
No.
I wish I could act that well if my country was under full fledged attack! I see Superman when Ukraine speaks!!!
I will simply vote AGAINST each and every single candidate that has NOT openly denounced the Trump movement. That said, I will vote FOR any person who has the GREATEST CHANCE of defeating that candidate. This is an all out battle at the ballot box for our country in its existential threat from autocratic rule by insane people with zero heart and soul. I recommend you do the same. Get registered to VOTE NOW.
Americans need to pay attention to this post
You have a president right now who has destroyed your economy in less than one year after 4 years of the best economic upswing in history and the lowest unemployment to date.
Magically got elected in a landslide when he couldn't fill a room full of people to vote for him and is now the most unpopular US president ever.
Was involved in a cascade of scandals thanks to his crackhead son's dirty deals.
Has the entire media covering up his litany of mistakes
Cant even finish a coherent sentence
Came from a presidency that drone strike the entire middle east and gave the NSA enough power to search under your bed at nmight.
But somehow you geniuses think you can tell how to fight an Autocrat?
Are you serious?
You're obviously a propagandist troll. Voting against trump is the quickest way to destroy this country. I'm not a trump supporter but simply voting against him is how we sell put this country and our independence to globalists. I will be voting against anyone who aligns with the globalist agenda. It's time to put America first and get rid of the people putting globalization over country.
@@democracy189 why, because its foreign propaganda aimed at manipulating public opinion? You're not fooling anybody. Your what about trump distraction wont save your failing party. I've always detested the republican party, but I would take trump over biden any day, and I refuse to vote for trump or biden.
Keep sending, but start taking care of things HERE.
What is needed is a World Wide Embargo . Not just on Russia but on every country that deals with Russia against an embargo .
may be, first talk to Microsoft and Google to stop doing business and providing services to Russia?
Just like you ppl didn't and don't give much F about conflicts in Iraq, Syria, DR Congo, etc., much of the rest of the world don't give an F about Ukraine-Russia-NATO conflict and sanctions.
Dude we barely made it through Covid without people like you trying to destroy our economy. We aren't going to destroy everything now.
North-Korea, China and the crazy ayatollahs in Iran. Combined with russia = the axis of evil. Boycott them all.
Stop the fight and war.
What about those weapons systems that have air foils and can piloted by humans through the air? Isn't it time to get them more of those?
Amen.
No. Not if you are speaking of fixed wing aircraft. Ukraine cannot use the fixed wing aircraft they have - because of what Russia still has. Giving them the anti-aircraft missiles they need is better.
@@byecatsstacey7467 Actually they are using the aircraft that they have and they are winning engagements some times being out numbered as much as 5-1. Anti-aircraft can't attack ground targets or give air support to ground troops. The gurrilla warfare phase of the war is over, the next phase is going to require heavier weapons.
NAS Whidbey deployed one of their Growler VAQ’s to Germany a week ago.
Matt Miller is super!
I'm glad they addressed the Black Sea issue. This is very important
Don’t think about what’s effective. Give them what they need
I heard the Ukrainians prefer the Panzerfaust anti-tank weapon from Germany due to it's portability for close in fighting. What we need to be sending is more anti air, anti missile systems, the stuff we should be sending is the stuff only we can provide.
I wish my government would grow some b*lls. We could sent 50ish self-propelled air defense systems and about 100ish infantry fighting vehicles instantly, both tank-sized. (Marder and Gepard)
@@popelgruner595 I don't know if the Ukrainian tactics would accommodate the Marder, but who couldn't use a few Flackpanzer Gepard. Anti-air weapons are key.
Yes, it is good for close in fighting - something good to avoid when possible, but in this situation, hard to avoid. But the Javelin is nearly as portable, and is a guided, fire and forget missile rather than a rocket that simply goes where you aim. And the Javelin is WAY better in open spaces.
But the sorts of systems you say we should provide are systems we CAN'T provide! The Ukrainians are not trained to use or maintain US anti-air and anti missile systems, and they need help NOW - not months from now. People can be trained to use javelins and stingers in an hour or two, and their forces have been using them for a long time. But when it comes to aircraft, SAM's, tanks, and many other things, we can't supply them because the Ukrainians can't use them.
What we are doing is offering to replace some of the old Soviet equipment that the Ukrainians know how to use with new stuff in NATO nations that have a lot of that stuff. For example, there are reports that Lithuania is going to release 30 T-72 tanks in return for 15 M-1 Abrams tanks and the training to use and maintain them.
Depends on witch region you are talking about. Kyiv region have lots of forest and terrain (urban) suited for close in fighting, that is not the case in Donbass and the east. Armour is needed in the east. And yes SAMS offcourse
Close-in fighting does not work on the open plains. You need long range equipment there.
1.6 Billions in aid .. wow and we have millions starving ☹️☹️
Who is starving?
Trump ❤ Putin
Good! Send the best defensive systems we have.
Russia MUST be contained for the good of the civilised world.
"Provided" or loaned and sold? Clarify? Forgive Ukraine debt.
Give the Ukrainians what they want. They'll win this fight.
