Not in the scale it used to be. For comparison, us production of munitions will reach 84k per month in 2028 (according to this video) ukr fired 6-8k munitions each day, so by 2028 they will receive a month supply that last roughly 10-14 days. Current production is much less than that, monthly supply last for less than a week. Meanwhile rus is already producing hundreds of thousands each month and fires between 20-30k rounds each day. Aside from rus monthly production (which was kept secret and only estimates by reputable analyst is available) everything I said is verifiable through western sources.

@trader2137 2014 coup which the us clearly involved. 2015 poroshenko attending nato summit. Another meeting in 2018 telling nato ukr deserves nuke. The two Minsk agreement that was meant to prevent all out conflict which ukr constantly violated. You reap what you sow, the ukr leadership clearly deserved it.

"this is merely an alternative, no one is forcing you to eat it" Well with the increase of bug based food products and more and more regulations on farmers (including things like cow burp and fart taxes) it will soon no longer be a choice "This is more sustainable, less polluting, and less carbon footprint compared to beef and other meat-based products" Anything that's industrialized is going to leave carbon footprints. But the main contributor to pollution is not our food, it's the industrial sector and the factories owned by the elites. Now try telling them to contribute more to combating pollution and all you get is an iphone with no charger instead of investing on recycling or a more sustainable but more costly production methods. This kind of measures of switching food source is like taking 10 buckets of water from the sea in an attempt to drain it. Unfortunately these indoctrinated groups do not realize they are merely pawns in the elites game of shifting the difficulties into the majority while they enjoy all the privileges. Read more about the Fed's quantitative easing to cut down salaries of the middle class in an attempt to preserve their own wealth. This is all part of the agenda, and these folks are supporting it wholeheartedly, free of charge.

That was back when the economy was not privatized and neo-liberalized. It's impossible today without angering the private MIC sector who are the biggest lobbyist of presidential candidate and politicians, by building a nationally owned factory.

@thomasthereal4067 read the latest western media post of how "the economic war has stalled" read also how rus is achieving growth this year while the rest of EU is facing reccesion and us infflaton. Rus has reached the 5th largest GDP by purchasing power parity (PPP) surpassing Germany, making it the largest economy in Europe. Rus prospect is bright, not so for western nations.

@Deltasquadformingup ever heard of intercontinental ballistic missiles? Russia shares a border with the US, just so you know. Then there's a new military agreement with Cuba.

Europe does not contribute much. I think france alone was producing 4000 per month (that's less than a day use for ukr) while everyone else combined are producing around 2k. "The production will reach 84k by 2028" will this war even reach that long? If it did, that's still 10-14 days worth of munitions that took a month to produce. With the current spiral down of eruopean economy, I doubt they can help much.

@lepetitroquet9410 500k per year is a theoretical maximum production output, not the current production output. This sourced from the CEO, the same guy who says they can ramp up tank production and even place a factory in ukr, always followed by "if we have the appropriate funds". He also put out a lot of price tags of around 80-100 billions "to make it a reality". Quoted from Reuters: "The 51 billion euros in the defence budget will not suffice to purchase everything that is needed. And the money in the 100 billion euro special funds has already been earmarked - and partially been eaten up by inflation," he said. Obviously he's asking for more money. I hope you know how ridiculous this is, the guy is trying to profit off the war. If you compare this to the amount of Germany willing to put out as "aid" for ukr, you know how much of BS he's selling. For comparison, the US, current top producer in the whole western sphere, produced 24k shells a month, up from 16k shells a month before the war. And only able to reach 84k shells in 2028. Yet he's claiming to be able to produce around 43k a month (500k a year) TODAY. The million shells act was based on the idea of chipping in all the remaining shells, both for training and defense and replace it with cash, in hope of producing more in the future to replenish it. Many EU country had outright rejected the idea and it has so far been a failure. But even if we believe his magical number, 43k shells each month is still only worth 7 days of fighting at 6k fired each day. For comparison, rus fired 20-30k each day.

@vayate1234 I've re checked my sources and it seems you are correct. I have mixed up the info of France increasing it's monthly contribution to ukr of 2k shells a month with production quantities. Also for consideration which I forgot to say on my previous reply, the same rheinmetall guy who says 500k production yearly says it will be 250k yearly in April, before changing it to 500k in may and some more recent sources even says 600k. Like how? Magic it into reality?

@lepetitroquet9410 economic forecast does not represent real economy. Currently Germany is down below rus in GDP by PPP. Even now Germany is facing energy crisis, living cost crisis and energy cost crisis. The government has subsidized the energy cost for manufacturing yet most companies are leaving en masse and latest report shows a bleak outlook for germany. I don't even need to talk about France. If you follow the news, you'll already know.

@lepetitroquet9410 check the latest figure. The 2023 one from the IMF reports. Clearly stated that by the end of this year Russia will be above Germany.

@lepetitroquet9410 you've talked about growth projection, and I've said that it's not an indication of real economy. But at the same time the projection of economic growth by the IMF GDP by PPP clearly shows Russia surpassing Germany. Yet you are saying Germany is actually growing despite facing recession, energy and living cost crisis, while Russia is pretty stable and facing no shortages. Fantasy much? At no point did rus central bank shares unoptimistic view. If anything they are actually rising rates to cool down the economy and avoid overheating. Even the president nabiullina never shares any unoptimistic view during latest meeting. The argument that rus economy is only growing only due to bigger economic spending is BS. Like i said, there's a decrease on unemployment, no food or other commodity shortages. There's a bit of hiccup in the airplane and automotive industry but that's it. Yet somehow all of that is due to increase in military spending. How does that even work? Rus economy sustains itself through trades with partners. Even economist like Michael Hudson and David woo outlined this topic. Yet here you are basing your argument "because you've had the conversation enough time to know too well"
