So if Ukra,ine is winning on the battlefield, and Russia is running out of ammo and weapons, why would Ukraine need more weapons?

Why is she complaining? She wanted Russia to follow the West's "rules based order", and Russia is doing exactly that, copying what USA did in Iraq and what NATO did in Serbia. She should be delighted.

Kira, dear, when will you realize that there is nothing the West can do to prevent Russia destroying Ukraine? The West said "we will stay as long as it takes" in Afghanistan, in Vietnam, they say that every place they ruin. Wise up, honey.

@sergeyb8 exactly. if you are winning on the battlefield and the opposition are running out of weapons and ammo, you don't need anything more. How could you possibly lose?

@thegreatdane3627 NATO always assumed it would have air superiority against an opponent. Now that Russia's drones and missiles are penetrating Ukraine's air defenses frequently enough to destroy the country, what do you think NATO will do?

@thegreatdane3627 just curious, when NATO attacked Serbian power plants and when USA attacked Iraq's civilian infrastructure, did you cheer and find that was all part of the West's "rules based order?"

@thegreatdane3627 looking back, in December, when Putin asked for a meeting to review Russia's security concerns over Ukraine's militarization, do you think Biden should have answered "yes"?

@richardploss4494 Crimea is Russian and always has been. Ever been there, have you? A more culturally and ethnically Russian place you could not imagine. Hence the Crimean Parliament (it's called "democracy") voted for unification with Russia after the 2014 coup that turned Ukraine into a rogue state. Did Britain fight the Crimean War against Ukraine? or against Russia? Crimea will remain Russian for the simple reason that the vast majority of people in Crimea want it that way (it's called "democracy"). Learn some basics about Crimea.

@thegreatdane3627 nice try to pivot! is that the best you got when you can't answer some simple questions? Try this one. When exactly do you think NATO will have nothing more to offer Ukraine?

@thegreatdane3627 do you think EU sanctions package 9 will make all the difference and will defeat Russia?:)
2
@thegreatdane3627 when do you think Russia's mobilized reservists, the 320,000 waiting in the wings, will attack? When Ukraine's power grid is 60% destroyed? 70%? 80% what's your number?

excellent at pushing her country to total ruin

@thegreatdane3627 the answer is they wouldn't need anything more at all. Maybe the English word "need" is one you don't quite understand?

@thegreatdane3627 How many millions will be without power and water in Ukraine after the next wave of Russian attacks that NATO can't stop, do you think? Just copying the West's "rules based order", as was done in Iraq and Serbia

@thegreatdane3627 which sanctions package will bring Russia to its knees? 9? 12? 15? what's your number?:)

@richardploss4494 who is "we"? not a problem. if "you" prefer the total destruction of the country you claim to support, that's "your" choice. There is always the hope it will teach "you" a lesson.

@richardploss4494 would the attempted blowing up of the Crimea Bridge qualify as "terrorism"? Russia is just copying the West's "rules based order"

@richardploss4494 you know the West is losing when it dreams up an energy price cap that no one outside the West will follow! Get ready for your bills to go even higher very soon:)

@richardploss4494 oh, and YOU backed the discrimination of forcing Russian speakers in 90% Russian speaking communities to be compelled to be educated in a foreign language. YOU backed all that abuse of human rights. Now you have what you deserve.

@richardploss4494 just remember. EVERY attack by Russia that you describe as "terrorism" is just Russia copying what USA and NATO have done in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Syria, in Serbia, in Libya, and so on. Russia is just following, exactly, the "rules based order" of the West. You should be overjoyed! Unless, that is, you are a terrible hypocrite!? Please explain, what is Russia doing that the West never did?
