  1. They are only using shovels, no need to worry.
    446
  2. Israel should have never had support in the first place.
    330
  3. Totally isolated, I tell you. Brussels and Washington said so and they are never wrong about anything.
    251
  4. Not at all. Which is why Israel as a whole has to be sanctioned.
    217
  5. Sounds like it was a waste of time. What a surprise.
    196
  6. Because it turns out that we need energy. Big shocker.
    186
  7. They are just bs-ing regarding the scale of the losses.
    184
  8. Christmas came early this year.
    170
  9. With each passing day the Istanbul talk looks more attractive.
    168
  10. We don't have any leverage. Europe's influence in the world has been in freefall for decades now, probably because we are willful vassals to the criminals in charge (who blew up the Nord Stream pipelines). Which is why we are so enthusiastically supporting every foreign "adventure" (read: disaster) of the clowns in the White House, even (or always) to our own disadvantage. You think China is impressed by the subservience? They know that it doesn't matter what they discuss with the EU, once the US asks us to sanction China, we'll ask "how many rounds?".
    164
  11. Ah yes, Israel being this sparkling paragon of humanity again.
    146
  12. Apparently the slogan isn't genocidal when the right people say it...
    146
  13. He just said what everyone with a brain knew since 2022.
    145
  14. Russia is so isolated.🙃
    143
  15. As far as I understand it the AfD is actually supportive of Israel because of a general anti-islam stance.
    142
  16. "Every delay is costing Ukrainian lives". She is right, but it's the delay of negotiations, not weapons deliveries, that is killing Ukrainians.
    135
  17. Germany is struggling because our government can't think of any solution to the hole they've dug for us except for staying the course and digging deeper.
    121
  18. Absolutely deserved for the shoe polisher of the White House.
    117
  19. The fact alone that the media has started asking this question should be an indication of the answer.
    112
  20. That’s what happens when you voluntarily sit down at the children’s table. The adults won’t take you seriously.
    103
  21. Scholz: "Would you please put pressure on Putin to end the Ukraine war? I promise that when the Taiwan conflict escalates we will do to China the same thing we did to Russia, sanction you and taking the economic hit in order to aid US-geostrategic goals." Xi: "That's a wonderful idea. We've actually partnered up with Russia to ensure our energy supply in the face of a looming US-blockade if and when the Taiwan crisis turns hot, but I will gladly give up on that plan because you asked so nicely, Olaf."
    103
  22. What a clown world we live in.😅
    101
  23. Good question, why is the Ukraine discussing this so called "peace formula"? They might as well stop with the charade and just call for the unconditional surrender of Russia. It won't happen of course, but at least we'd be spared the doublespeak.
    100
  24. Utter clown show.
    98
  25. That you can present these casualty estimates with a straight face is truly astonishing.
    95
  26. They are there being sitting ducks. Wow.
    90
  27. Baerbock still pretending that Ukraine can win.
    87
  28. Laos was neutral, by the way. And as far as I am aware America doesn't help much with cleaning up their own mess.
    84
  29. They try to pretend that it matters what happens in Kursk.
    82
  30. Oh no, who could have seen that one coming?
    76
  31. Well, they are doing it because it makes sense and because they can't do much else.
    76
  32. Months of "limited battlefield victories". That's one way of describing it I suppose.
    74
  33. Nooooootthing to see here, guys, it's just the most moral army in the world hard at work carrying out their moral acts.
    71
  34. Yup, that's the quality of our news reports.
    69
  35. Yes. Thank you, America, thank you, traffic light coalition.
    69
  36. Next up Germany, we have to throw Scholz out.
    67
  37. I sure hope the Turks will also apologise for the Crimean slave trade, the Arabs for their slave trade and the Italians should absolutely apologise for the slave trade during the Roman Empire.😄
    63
  38. It further exposed the Donbass defensive lines, so yes, in a way we are closer to the end now. Just not how Ukraine would like it.
    61
  39. He can stay there permanently as far as I am concerned.
    61
  40. Israel trying to escalate again.
    59
  41. I'm sure package number nine will be the silver bullet that the EU was searching for. Travel bans for 200 people from Russia, my God, they have really run out of options.
    59
  42. Explaining the rise of the far right as a backlash to an increase in minority representation demonstrates a really shallow understanding of the phenomenon if you ask me.
    57
  43. They want to drive them out, duh.
    56
  44. "Make peace, you fools! What else can you do?
    56
  45. There is nothing you can change to make a Ukrainian victory possible. Try to negotiate.
    56
  46. So, this month we had this waste of time and Europe writing Ukraine another loan of 50 billion dollars. The grift continues.
    55
  47. So something like 10-20 days of Russia's shell consumption?
    55
  48. Minsk II suddenly looks very appealing, doesn't it?
    54
  49. As long as we play the obedient servant to America.
    54
  50. I'm sure Russia feels very intimidated by that rally.
    53
  51. Sounds to me as if the military objective of rescuing the hostages was never feasible. Who'd have thought?
    53
  52. I'm not sure what I should be more surprised by. The EU not learning from previous failures or there still being something they can sanction?
    53
  53. No, Bush, Obama, Trump, Biden and Scholz also share blame.
    53
  54. Can’t do a worse job than what we’ve had so far.
    53
  55. Fits the Democrats, too.
    52
  56. Israel is a "rabbid" state at this point.
    51
  57. Because it would make it harder for foreign capital to influence Georgian politics.
    50
  58. With what money? What weapons?
    46
  59. Those negotiations from April 2022 and even before the war look ever more appealing, don't they?
    46
  60. I guess America will get away scot free. Who'd have thought?
    44
  61. "Putin is running out of experienced soldiers." What a clown.
    43
  62. I don't care about what happened 80 years ago. Germany should cut all ties.
    43
  63. Not well, but expect people to pretend otherwise.
    42
  64. First step to getting rid of him.
    42
  65. Tell that America and Israel.
    41
  66. All good, keep going, nothing to see here. Ukraine is winning, trust the experts, surely they’ve been spot on through the entire conflict? Don’t you dare suggest negotiations, that would make you evil. 😒
    41
  67. If Francis Fukuyama said it it must be wrong.
    41
  68. Annalena is no diplomat.
    39
  69. Doesn't matter, they are still losing.
    39
  70. No, really? Are you telling me that he perhaps never planned on restricting migration? Colour me shocked.
    39
  71. My, my, we are taking it badly that people voted for someone we didn't want.
    39
  72. No, they aren't.
    38
  73. It must be really bad at the front lines if Blinken parachutes in.
    38
  74. Israel should be told to stop escalating, but we all know that will never happen.
    37
  75. Does kidnapping men off the streets not yield the necessary results anymore?
    37
  76. You can blame the media rhetoric and the conspiracies about Trump for that attempt.
    34
  77. Spineless meets senile. What a team.
    34
  78. Can you imagine North Korea and China combining their technological expertise? What if next time US airspace is breached it's by a nuclear bomb tied to a weather balloon?😂
    34
  79. I wonder how much longer this will go on before we accept the probable outcome?
    34
  80. They say 12th time's the charm, right? Maybe we can push Russian economic growth to 6%.😒
    33
  81. "Russia is isolated." Yes, true, just please ignore the delegations of 40 African states in Russia that are preparing for the Russia-Africa summit later this year. Or that Latin America told the US to get lost when it tried to drum up support for Ukraine.
    33
  82. Got chewed up in the offensive of last year.
    33
  83. Why would you vote for SPD after three years of Scholz?
    33
  84. I agree, we need a policy shift. We should put equidistance between us, China and Washington. If the White House wants to poke China in the eye with Taiwan it can do so alone. And put some serious thought into the BRI.
    33
  85. They are both terrible, but Macron is an outright lunatic.
    32
  86. Oh no.
    32
  87. Why? America failed in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan.
    31
  88. Ukraine also needs more soldiers, and tanks, and ammunition and all the war supplies we do not have. But hey, I am sure you can win a war with wishful thinking and delusions.
    31
  89. How dare Georgia demand transparency from NGOs!
    31
  90.  @jankowalyk7301  So they pushed the Ukrainians back with nothing but wounded soldiers? Damn, imagine how weak the Ukrainian grouping in Kursk must be then.
    30
  91. Those are those Western values we have to defend, right?
    30
  92. You sure they don't want to counter American aggression?
    30
  93. When your policy is a failure you double down until your failure cannot be hidden anymore.
    29
  94. 😂 Now you've found an expert who admits that Bakhmut is actually important? Please, get the American think tankers on again and have them explain why Ukraine is pouring more and more reinforcements into what everyone calls a meatgrinder, despite the city being so unimportant.
    29
  95.  @Sebby6666  So why didn't the US send their solutions then?
    29
  96. Of course you can. Why would India even want to get involved in America's war for dominance?
    29
  97. No one is blocking Georgia from entering the EU except for the EU.
    29
  98. From what I read yesterday the Ukrainians were still around 10 km away from the first prepared defense line (as in the ominous big red lines on satellite pictures shared on social media) and are only fighting through the buffer zone at the moment (which is what Mike Martin wants to sell us as breakthroughs through the first and second lines). So you know, we'll know how well prepared Russia's defense is when the Ukrainians reach it. By the way, the slow and steady approach to conserve manpower that Martin is describing as what Ukraine is doing? That's actually Russia's approach, he just changed the name of the country.
    28
  99.  @lepetitroquet9410  You are delusional.
    28
  100. I take it genocide does not stop resistance that easily?
    28
  101. Clearly Ukraine is winning. No need for negotiations, no sir. After all, they are winning…
    28
  102. Why does he need help? I thought Ukraine was winning and has been winning since February 2022? Germany should cut aid off, seeing as the war is going so well.
    28
  103. It's because they realise that they are next. Jesus, it's not that hard.
    28
  104.  @TheWebstaff  Copium should only be taken in small amounts.
    27
  105. I'm sure Blinken's peptalk will have helped Ukraine.
    27
  106. Still downplaying the importance of Bakhmut, I see.
    27
  107. The speaker was a comedian cracking jokes about the island’s garbage problem. Biden is the sitting president of the US.
    27
  108. No, we are cooked.
    27
  109. We should take the opportunity to lessen American influence on the continent.
    26
  110. The plan? Words that youtube doesn't like.
    26
  111. Yeah, yeah, keep pretending that we can somehow turn the tide or something.
    26
  112. Oh no, now it's the wrong type of journalists getting suspended. Quick, let's all clutch our pearls.
    26
  113. More like the other way around.
    26
  114. Game changers, turning points, you could almost think we've been going in circles.
    25
  115. No, but that's not going to stop those people in Brussels.
    24
  116. So wait, Russia fired rockets at key infrastructure targets, but also randomly at some little village in nowhere cow country? Are we sure it wasn't a Ukrainian anti-air missile missing its target? And of course Ukraine shot down all missiles heading for Kiev, but Kiev also has a new round of blackouts.
    24
  117. To the last citizen of that country.
    24
  118.  @lordssundee7047  But if you are antii-war you are against the subjugation of Germany to American interests?
    24
  119. It'll take some months, but you will come around to admitting that Ukraine is losing. I believe in you, DW News.👍
    24
  120. Thank God that American, British and German media reported on this simultaneously and delivered us this absurd story. I needed a distraction from both the coming fall of Bakhmut and I hope that the Chinese and Russians will ease off the pressure in the UN Security Council for an investigation.
    24
  121. No, he is wrong. Germany is too subservient to America, that is the issue.
    23
  122. Well, Israeli politicians told us what they are all about and it's not like anyone is trying to stop them.
    23
  123. Everytime you think they can't stoop lower, they somehow manage it.
    23
  124. How democratic of you.
    22
  125. Jesus Christ, you don't know anything about Germany past 1945, do you?
    22
  126. Hopefully Georgia can defeat them.
    22
  127. That is our vasall master. Scholz is truly pathetic.
    22
  128. Didn't we condemn Iran for striking other countries?
    22
  129. No negotiations in sight, because Ukraine prefers living in la la land.
    22
  130. Ukraine can't even pierce the Russian fortifications in the south. Why would Russia disengage?
    22
  131. NATO-bots on life-Support. Where are the fellas at?
    22
  132. If you are completely outmatched and cannot win? Sure, better than ending up in some graveyard for America.
    22
  133. Don't you worry guys, she'll be well looked after financially.
    22
  134. But why wouldn't they? The US government never lies. About weapons of mass destructions, massacres, pipeline explosions and certainly not about environmental dangers.
    22
  135. The Americans literally surveilled the chancellor, so keep telling yourself that they are our friends.
    21
  136. Oh look, Ukraine is winning.
    21
  137. Pointless delivery to a bottom-less pit.
    21
  138. And the American backers?
    21
  139. When you are running out of men.
    21
  140. Congratulations to Georgia for standing firm.
    21
  141.  @DerDoMeN  False, they are the natives.
    20
  142.  @soundscape26  Stop provoking Russia would be an idea.
    20
  143. Thank you, traffic light coalition. Just how morally bankrupt can we get?
    20
  144. Is Russia pushing Europe further into an energy crisis? Nah, Europe is doing that all on its own (with some help from the Americans).
    20
  145. I agree, we need a chancellor ready to tell the Americans to stick it.
    20
  146. I can tell you what's not coming. An attempt at negotiations, after all we would rather fight to the last Ukrainian, despite our inability to actually keep the Ukrainian army properly supplied. Not to mention that we prefer to pretend that Russia suffers x-times the casualties the Ukrainians do.
    20
  147. Ukraine can't win the war and we refuse to negotiate. What's there left to be said?
    20
  148. Waste of time.
    20
  149. "Make peace, you fools! What else can you do?"
    20
  150. Now please check for American influence on German journalists.
    20
  151. Typical traffic light coalition L.
    20
  152. Scholz allowing the country to be prostrated once more.
    19
  153. Because escalating wars is always dangerous?
    19
  154. Procrastinating peace talks costs lives (and future territory).
    19
  155. Considering the US bombed our NordStream pipelines I wish they were able to drive a wedge between Europe and the US, but as it stands our politicians like to stay subservient.
    18
  156. Hopefully she loses.
    18
  157. Ukraine is losing, Ukraine is lashing out, Ukraine should seek peace before it gets worse.
    18
  158. Of course DW pushes America's wishes.
    18
  159. Because the point of the video is to throw sand in the audience's eyes.
    18
  160.  @vectorfox4782  Who blew a hole into our pipelines?
    18
  161. When you are senile and all you have is a broken hammer.
    18
  162. You sure about how that relationship will endure? Asking, because I think we are slowly being prepared to decouple to please America.
    17
  163. What did he give the Russians, the pathetic state of the army?
    17
  164. What, did they vote in a way you don't like?
    17
  165. So if he is using the same playbook, does that mean that East Ukraine will see a lot of rebuilding after the war and a population loyal to Russia?
    17
  166. Those drone attacks on Moscow surely showed them, right?
    17
  167.  @RudolphoAqui  Is Ukraine running out of men or is it not?
    17
  168. Open a history book and read it.
    16
  169. They didn't?
    16
  170. That’ll be a problem years after Ukraine’s loss in this war.
    16
  171. DW News must be really desperate.
    16
  172. As if anyone wants to be conscripted against a non existent threat.
    16
  173. GDP numbers mean nothing in this context. Just because you produce toothpicks doesn't mean you can also produce tanks.
    16
  174. Predictably we failed. What a surprise.
    16
  175. Sounds better than being a deindustrialised American puppet.
    16
  176. We wouldn't, after all they are often outlawed in Europe.
    16
  177. You are lying, Russia was not invited.
    16
  178. One of the neocon queens. That alone should mean that no one should listen to her. By the way, Georgia started the war in 2008, ask the EU.
    16
  179. Congratulations!
    16
  180. But Putin is fragile.😅
    16
  181. Taiwan is never going to be ready. They cannot ever win alone.
    16
  182. Don't forget that Russia is also running out of missiles. Our experts have predicted that and they are clearly always right!
    16
  183. I guess America won't be able to push every country around anymore.
    16
  184. I'm going to have to have to buy a new atlas, because my current one labels the Atlantic wrong. At the very least NATO is a defensive alliance and would never ever consider looking for monsters to slay in the name of American geopolitical ambitions.🙄
    16
  185. Can't wait for the newscast on how scientists proved that water is wet.
    15
  186. It covers the Burisma corruption scheme.
    15
  187. And in Germany we are forced to support them.
    15
  188. Good luck engaging Russian anti-air defences.
    15
  189. But... but... we were told they didn't make any progress in the last few weeks.😂
    15
  190. I wonder if the negative headlines about India I've seen come out are a response to India not falling in line with the US hegemonic project. Mot like the obedient EU pet.
    15
  191. Since when are they begging?
    15
  192.  @bbfabien  What's "evolution" supposed to mean?
    15
  193. No, but that won't stop them.
    15
  194.  @steveborgmalta  Considering they are attending this waste of time?
    15
  195. No, because he won’t admit that it’s Ukraine that is dragging us down.
    15
  196. Careful, you called them reservists, not conscripts. :D
    15
  197. Of course they'll sort it out. If you think it's throwing good money after bad, think again! It's actually a lot of money for the military industrial complex. Lots of people getting rich off the destruction of Ukraine.
    15
  198.  @Aaron-rw3lv  Keep telling yourself hat.
    15
  199. Shouldn't we speak off survival only after the war's end?
    15
  200. I feel like DW News would be clapping if Serbia were to give into NATO and the US and recognise Kosovo. On a more positive note, perhaps these two countries can work out their issues together?
    15
  201. We have to vote out Scholz.
    14
  202. Ah, will Israel's genocidal rampage be remembered, too?
    14
  203. That's very antisemitic of the WHO. 🙄
    14
  204. As if Macron would ever actually follow through on his grandstanding.
    14
  205. Ukraine is losing, but we won't negotiate, because we have to do it from a position of strength. Nevermind that the situation is actually getting worse each month.
    14
  206. You mean watching America fail?
    14
  207. I imagine that as a successful wartime leader he is going to win hands down.
    14
  208.  @adamredwine774  Israel
    14
  209. If that were true we’d be working towards peace in Ukraine.
    14
  210. Who could have seen this coming? Certainly not Western politicians or the NAFO bootlickers.
    14
  211.  @fullcirclehistory  You mean Russian and Chinese "aggression" in response to America's wars and regime changes around the world?
    14
  212. "Which is absurd considering the frontline is at a stalemate." I guess the reporter forgot that there is a two month old Ukrainian offensive underway that hasn't achieved anything of note. There wasn't supposed to a be a stalemate, but as it turns out Ukraine simply doesn't have the strength to reclaim the 1991 border. Well, nothing came out of it it seems like. Perhaps it will dawn on them eventually that demanding Russia's unconditional surrender is not going to get them anywhere.
    14
  213. Your delusions don't make for good policy.
    14
  214. Sure, like in Afghanistan or South Vietnam. Won't matter anyway, support or not, the destination is still the same. These fools should negotiate a peace before conditions get even worse.
    14
  215.  @markmd9  Dunno, is the thief a 400 pound gorilla that my "friends" provoked?
    14
  216. The US needs to leave the region.
    14
  217. Water carrier for the US.
    13
  218.  @almac9203  I don't need to, just avoiding youtube.
    13
  219. Thank God someone has some sense left.
    13
  220.  @maneshipocrates2264  Please, those are a number of losers trying to end a war that their country is winning.
    13
  221.  @American-In-Mykolaiv  Go to the front.
    13
  222. Who would want to hold the job when Russia wins in Ukraine?
    13
  223. Because the wrong person won the first round.
    13
  224.  @ernstschwaig4667  Also not holding elections.
    13
  225. As long as the country is deindustrialising it doesn't matter what weapon systems Germany has.
    13
  226. Their shipbuilding capacity is miles ahead of the American one.
    13
  227.  @lordssundee7047  What does one thing have to do with the other? Who destroyed Nord Stream and why does Germany harm itself for America's interests?
    13
  228. What does it matter if the clown stays in power or not?
    13
  229.  @TheBlackIdentety  About what, that Petraeus has been wrong about Ukraine's 2023 offensive?
    13
  230. I can only hope that Fico will win and actually follow up on his promises. It would be a small step, but maybe we could actually start a process of honestly assessing where we are (at a terrible place), what Ukraine can achieve (nothing, they'll lose) and how necessary negotiations are (absolutely, if only to stop the slaughter)-
    13
  231. Zelensky isn't even a player in this farce. More like a prop to be moved around.
    13
  232. Why? He's telling the truth.
    13
  233. Thank you Scholz, thank you Biden.
    13
  234. Can't we just ditch the Americans and look east for economic prosperity?
    13
  235.  @kermitthethinker1465  Ukraine had a net loss of territory.🙄
    13
  236. Oh no. Anyway.
    13
  237. Nothing changes, the conflict will go on.
    13
  238. To have a war earlier?
    13
  239. Sounds like we in the West should stay obstinate and refuse negotiations. Heavens forbid we do the smart thing.
    13
  240. Threatening countries that can fight back?
    12
  241. Pointless escalation.
    12
  242. Nothing?
    12
  243. The corpse wants to sabotage Trump, huh?
    12
  244. Can't wait to pay them money.🙄
    12
  245. It wasn't a mistake, chaining ourselves to America was.
    12
  246.  @oconnem1  Ehat did US politicians do in Kiev then?
    12
  247. America has the same kind of law and the EU is debating one as well.
    12
  248. No, and he shouldn't after the damage he did.
    12
  249. Same time, same sum next year?
    12
  250. Ships travelling the sea. Let's fearmonger!
    12
  251. Are we meant to clap for extrajudicial murders, because that's how the Daily Mail described it a couple of weeks back?
    12
  252. Ukraine's "stalled counter-offensive". Nice euphemism you have there. Here is another one: "Ukraine is currently on the backfoot". We need negotiations, but not only would those probably come too late, but there will be someone crying "heresy" soon enough.
    12
  253.  @deanosaur808  No, I am German. It's the reason I want him to stay there.
    12
  254. That's rich coming from them.
    12
  255. Germany can't be the only one to reinforce failure after all. Especially since America provoked this conflict.
    12
  256. More unnecessary tensions. That's what we are getting.
    12
  257. It means more of the same. (Which means Ukraine loses.)
    11
  258. What a splendid idea. Will we pay the Russians to please not hit the factory with rockets? Will we sign a second deal to please not hit the electrical grid in the area of the plant?
    11
  259. You talking about America?
    11
  260.  @carolinerondon8934  "Stretched thin." Yeah, right. You can tell how thinly they are stretched by how many people volunteer for the front.
    11
  261.  @dresdenkiller  Oh, is that so? Because I know that the Bundeswehr in 1988 had 500k men. West Germany alone. This idea that "Germany didn't want an army following WW2" is utter rubbish and a myth. By the way, that means the Bundeswehr used to be larger than it currently is allowed to be under international law.
    11
  262. Lucky to have the choice to vote for an airhead?
    11
  263. Biden obviously. Duh.
    11
  264. Nothing. Nothing will change.
    11
  265. Can't say I'm afraid of either. Our politicians on the other hand... they are probably shitting bricks.
    11
  266.  @canitbethat  Their collapsed moral standing around the world, the trillions of debt, the war crimes, the victims and the humiliation in Iraq and Afghanistan.
    11
  267. Who could have thought that America first goes on an adventure and then bails and leaves us with the bag? Who could have predicted this?
    11
  268. So it'll be someone else that will lead Ukraine to defeat.
    11
  269. Looks like the NGOs won this battle. Not surprising, their funding comes from far richer countries abroad. By the way, I think the actual reason Russia is concerned isn't that a pro-West protest forced a pro-West parliament to do something, it's because instability at one's border is always a problem (not to mention that they probably don't want a repeat of 2008).
    11
  270. The IMF says the same thing.
    11
  271. Is he joking? Russian ambition in Africa, the Middle East and the Indo Pacific, and we have to be concerned about this? What, is Russia going to go on a huge conquering spree around the world next? Get real, man.
    11
  272. Von der Leyen should be the first to go.
    11
  273. This is what happens when you are dealing with an entitled brat. I can‘t wait for this to be over.
    11
  274. In order to get around the shadowbanning: I am sooooo glad that Germany is not working towards peace negotiations and is instead sending more money and aid to Ukraine, so that Ukraine may continue the war with the same success it has so far. Ukraine was always too big anyway.
    11
  275. How?
    11
  276. Yeah, Ukraine doesn't need money or gas.🙄
    11
  277.  @benfreiler4054  Yes. being the puppy brought us here, because the master wanted to piss our gas supplier off.
    11
  278. Another country to pay for.
    11
  279. We are pathetic vassal states.
    11
  280. America's fault.
    11
  281.  @timonsolus  Ukraine is using their weapons and has been receiving training for years now. So yeah, Russia can say they stomped three different NATO armies.
    11
  282. Calling for human rights, at the same time as Germany plays defence for Israel.
    11
  283. And guard it against the Americans.
    10
  284. How dare he not submit to America like the rest of us?
    10
  285. Ukraine goes from losing the war to losing the war.
    10
  286. We don't want to completely ruin ourselves.
    10
  287.  @freeeggs3811  I know. As far as I am concerned Germany shouldn't support Israel.
    10
  288.  @AdHernandez  Could it be that he has no leverage against Russia because of battle field realities?
    10
  289. Thank God Scholz got us into America's proxy war for hegemony.😒
    10
  290.  @vulturu.x4329  'Cause it's effective. Like back in the Vietnam-era.
    10
  291. She lost inside the country.
    10
  292. So she lost with the people living inside Moldova again.
    10
  293.  @DerDoMeN  Not really, if you've been kicked out of an area for nearly 2000 years you are not a native.
    10
  294. One more reason why we shouldn't be involved.
    10
  295. I wonder if people in western governments are currently regretting scuttling negotiations in April of last year.
    10
  296. I guess we in the West are still not willing to admit defeat.
    10
  297.  @jaunt3603  First, America liked it this way. You soured on it as you started to realise that China is eclipsing you. Secondly, we wouldn't need to do it if you stopped provoking crises.
    10
  298. To be expected. The longer we wait to come to a negotiated end the more oblasts will be lost.
    10
  299. It’s like in fiction, we swap murderers for spies.
    10
  300. Well known figure? In Lower Saxony perhaps.
    10
  301. They already shelled that power plant.
    10
  302. Well, thankfully these men survived the transport.
    10
  303.  @ayoungethan  Oh sorry, my German is showing through, after all it's "die Ukraine" there, too.😏
    10
  304. One can tell that you have been kept n hypnosis for 8 years.
    10
  305.  @benfreiler4054  No, America decided to change the government in Ukraine in 2014, that's when the conflict began.
    10
  306. Wake me up when he actually threatens to withhold weapon deliveries.
    10
  307. The NGOs are working overtime at the moment.
    10
  308. The message is clear: I'm trying to look tough on the world stage and am all out of ideas.
    10
  309. "Big burden on our democracy." Wow, talk about an exaggeration.
    9
  310. Yeah sure, Russia is losing 35k per month. Sure.
    9
  311. When is the EU not hypocritical?
    9
  312. No to more support, no to Taurus.
    9
  313.  @jaysonkmendoza  You are wrong. The government under Adenauer very purposefully worked towards remilitarisation. It wasn't "imposed" by anyone, but opposed by the likes of France.
    9
  314.  @joesephsmith7991  😂 He's a slimy propagandist.
    9
  315. Israel is the occupier.
    9
  316. It’s Germany that is playing with fire for America’s interest.
    9
  317. Good news then! Russia will surely run out of missles now. Totally, this time for realsies, no need to rethink the strategy in this proxy war!
    9
  318. Can't even quote Mark Milley correctly.
    9
  319.  @christianevanherck6023  Sure, ignoring history here (besides 1938 of course, because that is the only year that ever mattered), losing to Russia won't set any disastrous precedent. Obviously not.
    9
  320.  @zhangyiping100  Okay, so? The reason the West keeps escalating is because these weapons have not made a difference on the battlefield. Ukraine is still losing.
    9
  321. This is what happens when you allow America to meddle in Europe.
    9
  322.  @mariajones8304  No, I'm pretty sure I don't. Russia has its own laws, I don't think a law in Georgia will make it harder for foreign capital to influence Russian politics.
    9
  323.  @maxfmfdm  Sounds to me like you a war crime supporter.
    9
  324. Even worse.
    9
  325. America isn't trying to influence itself.
    9
  326.  @warbler1984  It's pro-Russian because...?
    9
  327. Repeat after me: Ukraine is winning. We can wish it into reality, right?
    9
  328.  @TheBlackIdentety  Nah, he's right. Scholz just loves that American boot.
    9
  329.  porter9494  They are the occupied, Israel is the occupier.
    9
  330. How about the other parties actually make policies in favour of German interests, rather than for the American Nord Stream terrorists?
    9
  331. Orban is one of two sane men in Europe.
    9
  332. And where do we get the capacity to produce enough anti-air missiles from?
    9
  333. I wish DW News were as obsessed with finding out the truth behind the Nord Stream bombings as they are with where Putin physically is.
    9
  334. I wish it weren't so, but our spineless politicians think exactly as you do.
    9
  335. Good to know that NATO decided to protect underwater infrastructure from the Americans.😄 Anyway, that's all just pointless theatrics.
    9
  336. They have already been fighting for years. You think this changes anything?
    9
  337. There won't be a war.
    9
  338. I'm rolling my eyes. This bill was literally just a weaker version of the American Foreign Agents Registration Act, but it looks like "some" want to keep it easy to meddle in Georgia's internal affairs.
    9
  339.  @Srt092  Yes, this is called a proxy war, very good. Nearly as good as your hilarious attempt at reimagining the reality of this war.
    9
  340. Obviously this is a sign of Ukraine winning. /s
    9
  341.  @ironknee6879  Oh please, he is just doing what America wants him to do.
    9
  342. Our previous Wunderwaffe!
    9
  343. And right after they‘ll march on Vladivostok.
    9
  344.  @Keyboard_Thoughts  Jesus. If NATO had made moves to include Ukraine earlier, the war would have started earlier.
    9
  345. I hope they won't strike too much, because that would be "helping" Putin.😉
    9
  346. ​ @squireson  You think this has been about democracy and the rule of law? This was about regime change in Russia from the very start.
    8
  347. Two more years and we can vote her out. Two more years...
    8
  348. All the Kursk incursion is showing is that Ukraine has taken leave of their senses.
    8
  349. Clearly Ukraine is winning.🙄
    8
  350. He's only interested in America's interests.
    8
  351.  @Blodhelm  Don't pretend as if America didn't like the arrangement. You don't "accidentally" put 900 military bases around the world.
    8
  352. We are going to help them as energetically as we've helped Libya!
    8
  353. Thank God the Middle East is really quiet at the moment. During war times that could have been a very dangerous situation.
    8
  354. No, we should cut ties with the USA.
    8
  355. Oh noes, the Americans are now doing openly what they have already done covertly for the longest time.😱
    8
  356. Do we even have enough airworthy planes in the Luftwaffe? Also, remove the American military bases from Germany. The Nord Stream bombers shouldn't be in this country.
    8
  357. Oh no, how terrible. People have different ideas on foreign policy.
    8
  358.  @thegreatdane3627  Sure, call it struggling if you want. After all it's Russia and not Ukraine that is struggling with a lack of manpower, am I right?
    8
  359. Russia isn't Germany's neighbour.
    8
  360.  @CalimehChelonia  Oh sure. When do they cross our borders?
    8
  361. Collective punishment at its finest. Decency? War crimes? What is that?
    8
  362.  @loremipsum0421  We are not dependent on Ukraine.
    8
  363. Half the time Biden doesn't know where he is and you want to tell me that I have to take his warnings seriously?
    8
  364.  @cmd7930  Duh, of course it would be taxpayer money. Paid by people who aren't slaveowners, paid to people who aren't slaves and never were. That's how one atones for slavery.🙄
    8
  365. I am not even going to question who would want the Dutch to pay reparations, nor who would get the money.
    8
  366. I'm going to make a guess here, as far as the West is concerned Israel can just do whatever it wants.
    8
  367.  @ericdpeerik3928  Have you skipped the part where the lady mentions that taking Bakhmut would help with Russia's logistics?
    8
  368. Of course they double down as they watch their project go up in flames.
    8
  369. Good for the Solomon Islands. Too bad Germany can't follow suit.
    8
  370. Ýes please, put some lipstick on that pig that has been the "spring" counter-offensive.
    8
  371. Please, Germany isn't trying to deescalate tensions. They want everyone else to just go along with whatever Israel is doing, no matter how heinous.
    8
  372. This war can’t be brought to an end that favours Ukraine.
    8
  373.  @Jose-og909  Where to?
    8
  374. Thank you Scholz, thank you Biden.
    8
  375. The solution is to send more money and weapons to Ukraine.
    8
  376.  @Broodplank86  Sure, if you want to gamble the survival of the Ukrainian state on this, be my guest. Ukraine doesn't have time on its side, because they are completely dependent on financial and military aid from the West and their patience does run out eventually.
    8
  377. Why aren‘t we doing something about what happened in Gaza?
    8
  378. Perhaps when he allows opposition parties and media again.
    8
  379. Right, losing a war is a deal.
    8
  380. Going out on a limp here: Xi isn't coming. Not that it matters, if Xi wanted to sign any agreements he'd have to talk to Biden.
    7
  381.  @wkwojti  You mean the 30000 volunteers per month, right?
    7
  382. Who was it again who told us that by the end of spring Ukraine would be in Crimea? Anyway, I'm sure the counter offensive is going to come. It's ill-advised and the gains won't be worth the price in blood and machinery, but it'll happen.
    7
  383. We could just not provoke Russia, but where is the money in that?
    7
  384.  @ronnie5329  Yes, it's attrition, something Ukraine will never be able to match Russia in. Anyway, do you actually have an argument for why Russian society is supposed to be "stretched thin"?
    7
  385.  @patricksmith1626  Nope.
    7
  386. End all help.
    7
  387. Just like with the "counter"-offensive in 2023!
    7
  388. It would have been in your interest not to bait a war in Ukraine, but you couldn't help yourself in that case, either. What a propagandist.
    7
  389. There is no point in fearing the impossible.
    7
  390.  @thegreatdane3627  They do, after all Zelensky is on a begging tour again and the peace summit in Switzerland is already falling apart.
    7
  391.  @truefarm6921  Why would he be? He is winning.
    7
  392.  @dennischiu272  Remind me, who was actually almost shot at a live event?
    7
  393. I guess France will be condemned to continue the failed Ukraine policy?
    7
  394.  @JohnGeranien  True and America was happy about it until China became a peer.
    7
  395. He means modern "Western" tanks (as in tanks that are a good 40 years old and have been updated since then). Kiev has already been receiving tanks, but they were Soviet stock. Oh, and besides the fighter jets (which they will definitely send because escalating is all they know how to do) don't forget the submarine Melnyk wants.😂
    7
  396. Oh come on, Georgia will fit right in after the EU passed its own foreign agent law.
    7
  397.  @anitad5935  Israel has been literally occupying and strangling Gaza and the Westbank and it was Hamas that started it?
    7
  398. Is there is an English speaking minority in Russia?
    7
  399. He's trying to get us involved on behest of our vassal master, despite said vassal master having destroyed our pipelines.
    7
  400. Wouldn't change anything, after all it is a grift for everyone involved.
    7
  401.  @jordizee  Yeah, right. My prediction is that Scholz will be long gone before Putin leaves the scene.
    7
  402.  @oleg.lyamin  No, it means that the Siversk-Soledar-Bakhmut line will soon collapse and Ukraine is forced to fall back to her last line of feasible defence before the Dnieper. It means the Ukraine headquarter in Kramatorsk becomes a frontline city.
    7
  403.  @hb9145  Israel had them under siege for years.
    7
  404. No, it’s the other way around.
    7
  405. Why should our economy go down the tubes so that America can extend its hegemony further east?
    7
  406. This is what defending democracy looks like.😂
    7
  407. No, you provoked the war in the east, you can fight there on your own.
    7
  408. The future is grim thanks to the Americans and our Quislings.
    7
  409.  @Smokedout33  Oh, please tell me all about how the state of Laos was busy getting involved in the Vietnam war against the US.
    7
  410. No NATO for Ukraine.
    7
  411. How does the American boot taste?
    7
  412. Zelensky a leader?😂
    7
  413. Because muh Ameri- I mean western hegemony.
    7
  414. Germany defeated Russia in WW1. It wasn't even close.
    7
  415.  @phoenix5054  Yes, American interests. Who wanted Ukraine and Georgia in NATO? Who wants to keep being the unchallanged superpower?
    7
  416. None, but that goes against the narrative.
    7
  417. If only we weren’t turning the Bundeswehr into an American auxiliary force.
    7
  418. Well, they let them into the country.
    7
  419. "Everything that goes wrong is Russia's fault, never ours," every German and American politician.
    7
  420.  @diegof8853  Yes.
    7
  421.  @soundscape26  Don't be naive.
    7
  422. But it's totally not the g-word.😒 Thank you, Scholz, for making us complicit. This is feminist foreign policy, am I right, Baerbock?
    7
  423. He was pushed out, he didn't go for the country.
    7
  424.  @bramposthumus9300  No, he speaks the truth.
    7
  425. Why would they make any?
    7
  426.  @ImAmirus  "The conservatives that are not in government won, clearly people are satisfied with the government that does not contain the conservatives."
    7
  427. So how do you buffer against glide bombs dropped from planes? But I suppose after the argument of diverting Russian troops didn't work out they have to come up with something.
    7
  428.  @kevfit4333  And the tanking economy.
    7
  429. How many game changers has it already been?
    7
  430.  @BrentRyley  Right, the actual true purpose of the law is to pave the way towards unification with Russia. I forgot.🙄
    7
  431. Everything is Munich 1938 with you people. Don't you have any other historical analogies?
    7
  432.  @thegreatdane3627  I checked with Destatis, you are wrong. As for Russia, it was a reliable supplier for over 50 years until the Americans finally managed to blow up our physical and metaphorical pipelines with their ceaseless provocations.
    7
  433. Take a map of the incursion and zoom out until you see all of Russia. Let’s not pretend as if this has any bearing on the outcome of the war.
    7
  434. Sure, go ahead and explain.
    7
  435.  @lepetitroquet9410  Our military gear is getting smashed up in Ukraine, leaving us with empty shelves. Our economies are struggling, especially in Germany. America is proving its impotence and how overstretched they are. The sanctions bullet has been shot and missed its mark. This entire project is ending up in a complete failure.
    7
  436.  @lepetitroquet9410  The smart thing is to negotiate since we in the West are losing.
    7
  437. Baerbock is embarrassing. Anyway, now that the resolution is passed the world will move on and the war will continue to rage.
    6
  438. All three traffic light parties must be punished.
    6
  439. Schrödinger's Russia.
    6
  440. Ukraine has been shelling the civilians of Donetzk from there for close to a decade now. That's probably the reason for why Russia is attacking there.
    6
  441. If only Germany could join, too.
    6
  442. There was never a path to victory.
    6
  443. No, it won’t. So expect the narrative to shift again and argue for even more useless escalation.
    6
  444. No, it's Israel's occupation and siege policy at fault.
    6
  445. They had one, the opposition wants to overturn it.
    6
  446. Staying on after the term expired. That's democracy in action.
    6
  447. They already did with Nord Stream.
    6
  448. They are probably training because they have lost every dragged out urban battle so far.
    6
  449. Well, they have a French president, so you know, they are very independent.
    6
  450.  @koushikdas1992  Yes, after America did everything it could to make sure this outcome would happen.
    6
  451. How many reporters were killed in Gaza?
    6
  452.  @jasonfuchs4304  😂
    6
  453.  @Paul-yh8km  How does clapping your hands like a seal while the country of Ukraine goes up in smokes feel?
    6
  454. Whatever happened to Navalny?
    6
  455.  @420JackG  He's just your bog-standard neo-liberal foreign policy guy.
    6
  456. At least on this topic Scholz hasn't lost his marbles yet.
    6
  457.  @thegreatdane3627  I'm actually hoping to save Ukrainian lives, something you are of course completely indifferent to. But sure, let's pretend that taking territory quickly is part of Russia's strategy: they still made more progress in April than Ukraine did in their offensive last year (if we ignore for a moment that Russia actually made a net-gain last year during said offensive). As for the mobilisation, yes, they did that around eight or nine times already. Always ending up in the same situation, a lack of manpower. Gee, I wonder why?
    6
  458.  @arthurarthur6083  Has Biden allowed you to kiss his boots today?
    6
  459.  @deidresable  There wasn't a war, but it was the last time Germany was combat ready. It's a persistent myth that the state of the Bundeswehr is caused by some residual guilt over WW2 or some such and has been so since 1948, but that isn't true. The Bundeswehr declined from the 90s onwards.
    6
  460. Yes, but as we all know the US sprinted from one disaster after the other, because it didn't heed the warnings.
    6
  461. How dare Hungary not bow down to Brussels (and consequently Washington)!
    6
  462. Regarding the professor, does he remember the four years where Trump's presidency was smeared as illegitimate?
    6
  463. Yeah, who could have known what Biden would do?
    6
  464. Well, the Greens don't seem to care much about the biggest case of industrial sabotage and ecological disaster in recent history. Who destroyed Nord Stream?
    6
  465.  @JebusHypocristosX  Ad hominem attacks are always an easy fallback option when you have no intellectual ability to challenge anyone.
    6
  466. More dependencies on the Nord Stream bombers in Washington. By the way, Russia has the world's best air defense system.
    6
  467. What a disappointment. Well, the murderous grift continues.
    6
  468. He needs to lose the election.
    6
  469. You are a bot.
    6
  470. So he has simply reiterated the position of his government?
    6
  471.  @cyberfunk3793  So has appeasing America, but you never see anyone seriously contemplating getting rid of the US.
    6
  472.  @cristinaximera9663  Correct.
    6
  473. Words are cheap, it's not that Ukraine is going to get NATO membership one way or the other.
    6
  474. And we are forced to help them.
    6
  475. Don't give me hope.
    6
  476. The outcome in Ukraine doesn’t matter to China when it comes to Taiwan.
    6
  477. Oh, sanctions? How creative.😒 I suppose that is what you get when you defend yourself.
    6
  478. Yeah, but winning isn't the goal here. Remember what the Nord Stream bombers in America said. The best money they ever spent, Russians are dying and Americans aren't. Their lives have value, your lives... well I'm sure you get the point.
    6
  479. He could tie weapon shipments to conditions, but he'll never ever do that.
    6
  480. Too much money for this grift.
    6
  481. Maybe the clown can convince the Japanese to keep to the failing oil prize cap. By the way, Ukraine didn't give up its nuclear weapons. It never owned them and lacked the codes to launch them.
    6
  482.  @thegreatdane3627  "Little chance of taking". First up, you should recognise your own weakness and try to go from there. There is no magic formular with which Ukraine can improve her situation. Until people like you get this, the war is going to continue and Ukraine's outlook gets worse and worse. You want to know when they should have talked? Before the offensive when you had this vaunted NATO-trained army as leverage. Before that , you could have negotiated after Russia's Kherson withdrawal as Mark Milley called them to do. Before that they could have not walked away from the March/April talks. Before that they could have agreed to neutrality and implement the Minsk agreement. It's getting worse and worse for Ukraine, but still people pretend as if Ukraine cannot negotiate and that there is some pot of gold at the end of the rainbow that is going to make all your wishes come true.
    6
  483. We shouldn‘t be there.
    6
  484. Oh sure, it's Trump that is the issue. Ignore the current president.
    6
  485. Thank you America for your completely reckless foreign policy. It got us to this point.
    6
  486.  @filipe5722  We both know that's not true. Ukraine even passed a law forbidding negotiations (not like their opinion matters that much of course).
    6
  487.  @Nicho_Ldn  Then maybe they should have called for a ceasefire in Gaza from the start.
    6
  488. America leaving Europe is necessary for freedom of Europe.
    6
  489.  @4layers404  America literally announced that Ukraine and Georgia would join NATO, even back when public opinion in Ukraine was against it. And then they couped the government.
    6
  490.  @3x157  With the exception of 18% of Ukraine.
    6
  491. Ssshhhh, we gotta pretend that Ukraine was losing because they "fought with one hand tied behind their backs".
    6
  492.  @Asgoga  I assume the Russians looked at Mark Milley's prediction and decided they wouldn't keep to an American time table.
    6
  493. Who needs peace negotiations anway?
    6
  494. More pointless escalation that won't lead to victory, but might end up dragging us deeper in.
    6
  495.  @liquid7105  They are using starvation as a weapon of war. Sounds very much like a Hungerplan.
    6
  496.  @cherrysaplings8166  Yes, they regime changed the country.
    6
  497.  @wojteks4712  No, you are just propagandised
    6
  498. Rubbish. Not sticking our nose in Ukraine would have been in our strategic interest.
    6
  499. That was lost the moment the US changed out presidents in 2014.
    6
  500. What future?
    6
  501. As far as I know, it's a single batterie. One. So you know, it doesn't make a difference (especially considering its poor performance in Saudi-Arabia).
    6
  502.  @bogdar2019  No, they should be consistent and condemn every occasion, not actually support one. And so should you.
    6
  503.  @luciferjohnson8495  German weapons are in Kursk. I think we've long crossed that particular Rubicon.
    6
  504. And you are surprised?
    6
  505. It's a war America shouldn't have baited.
    6
  506. "There is apparently a real Russian threat to the future of European's energy infrastructure", the clown says after the US blew up the Nord Stream pipelines.🤨
    6
  507.  @Youbetternowatchthis  He keeps insisting on more war that cannot be won to save face.
    6
  508. They won in 2006.
    6
  509. Israel was defeated in 2006.
    6
  510.  @TimMountjoy-zy2fd  Arrows on a map don't actually mean control of a territory. Russia only annexed the conquered territories somewhere in September. What I'm saying is, back in April Ukraine would have only lost Donetzk and Luhansk. Now it is Kherson and Zaporizhzhia.
    6
  511. Reality.
    6
  512.  @Pz.history  Western officials have already admitted that Russia's military is actually growing.
    6
  513. So? Ukraine isn't going to win either way.
    6
  514. Oh God, it's not 1938. Get a new script.
    5
  515. Most moral army in the world hard at work.
    5
  516. Considering the incompetence of the likes of Biden, Baerbock and von der Leyen? I'm sure they are trolling, playing chess against three year olds has to be kept entertaining somehow.
    5
  517. Here we can see the Bundeswehr in its natural state.
    5
  518. NATO bots on life-support.
    5
  519.  @Bigazoa11  Right, I'm the bot, not the "guy" who wrote down a (false) talking point.
    5
  520.  @stennan  Netanyahu has already denied it and you are literally defending the party that kept the Gaza war going as long as it did.
    5
  521. @Random_Dude42 Yes. Also, this isn't how war works.
    5
  522.  @AmericanBadger87  Usually you bots claim everyone with a sensible opinion is a Kreml agent.
    5
  523. "We are eager to learn our lesson from the Russian war." Not going to happen, considering no one seems to have learnt any lessons from Afghanistan and Iraq.
    5
  524.  @gossling77  No, America baited a war in Ukraine, that is the issue.
    5
  525. Russia has the highest economic growth in all of Europe.
    5
  526. I imagine my uncle will be happy about this, being a farmer and all. Anyway, maybe we can send the grain to Africa now?🤓
    5
  527. How to do one thing without actually doing the thing.😂 "Derisking" is just a euphemism, it's meant to pretend we are not preparing for a sanction war on America's behalf in the future.
    5
  528.  @filipe5722  Germany didn't lose in 1990.
    5
  529. We shouldn’t be there and Scholz has to be defeated in next year’s election.
    5
  530. Nothing. Germany is actually less capable now than it was in 2021.
    5
  531. Psst, don’t mention that. You might pierce the cognitive dissonance.
    5
  532.  @dennischiu272  I just came across the Liz Cheney comment and are you kidding me? He's calling her a chickenhawk.
    5
  533.  @Tavat  Why, because I don't belong to the "vote blue no matter who" crowd?
    5
  534.  @timonsolus  It sure does.
    5
  535. Your bias is showing, where was the outrage when Israel bombed Syria?
    5
  536. Surprising absolutely no one. Who'd have thought that the sanctions were bad ideas?
    5
  537. They are bought.
    5
  538. We have to defend what is happening in Gaza after all.
    5
  539. You wanted the responsibility and you wrote Israel the blank cheque.
    5
  540. Oh, now Baerbock finds a voice. Two more years, then we can vote the woman out of office.
    5
  541.  @BohdanMelnychuk  It never was.
    5
  542.  @tanyab244  Oh no, there isn't a cut-out for a company that is owned by one of America's largest tech giants.
    5
  543.  @willhudson5625  Where?
    5
  544. What about your tax dollars that were spent on provoking this?
    5
  545. I wonder how long it'll take for the ATACMS and fighter jets. They should be the next game changer that they'll ogle once they'll "realise" that we've already transferred tanks from former Warsaw Pact states and it landed us here.
    5
  546. I hope I'll see the day.
    5
  547. All I'm hearing is that DW wants to convince us that Trump would somehow be worse than Biden.
    5
  548. As opposed to Ukraine that is of course not shelling a nuclear power plant (and then claiming that the Russians are shelling themselves).
    5
  549. @fka-Kaya No surprise, the basis of this summit is Zelensky’s demand for Russia’s unconditional surrender. For understandable reasons Russia doesn’t feel pressured to attend when they are winning.
    5
  550.  @enigmaticzigfried7557  Don't pretend as if Israel is a victim, you are just ridiculing yourself. As for Russia, let's not pretend that America hasn't been pushing for this since 2008.
    5
  551. But German politicians would need balls for that and all those sweet jobs in American think tanks, NATO and the EU pay so well.
    5
  552.  @thegoat11111  Oh, how does a single patriot system save lives? By perpetuating a war that cannot be won by Ukraine?
    5
  553. For the moment Trump can't stop winning.🤣
    5
  554.  @dayegilharno4988  Acknowledging reality and admitting that Ukraine has lost, that sanctions aren't working and that we should drop them. And no, we didn't prioritise cheap energy over national security. We built Nord Stream because the Ukrainians kept stealing gas from us and kept blackmailing us. (Ignoring that Germany bought energy from Russia/the USSR since the 70s).
    5
  555. They've been talking about this since at least when Trump got elected, so I'll consider all of this hot air until something actually happens. Not that Germany is actually threatened, but that is a discussion for another time.
    5
  556. Great, let’s waste more money as our economy declines.
    5
  557. Except into minefields.
    5
  558. Monger with that fear, monger on.
    5
  559. The actual reason you are talking about it is that there isn't anything else Ukraine can claim as a success in their failed offensive.
    5
  560. 🙄 You guys should feel embarrassed about even using the phrase "game changer". Anyway, what Ukraine needs aren't useless cruise missiles, but an honest attempt at peace talks before their situation worsens even further.
    5
  561.  @adamredwine774  Oh, it's Hamas preventing food from reaching the hungry?
    5
  562. What wars has he instigated and why does Biden not warrant the same treatment?
    5
  563.  @ThePandafriend  That would imply that the Ukrainians were in control of the power plant when they shelled it. You seem to have misunderstood my comment, I'm saying that the Ukrainians shelled the ZNP, so claiming that they would never risk damaging it since it's in their country doesn't hold water.
    5
  564. As if they are ever going to pay it back.
    5
  565. I know, right? We are still chaining ourselves to the Americans.
    5
  566. You can tell how sovereign Iraq is when America launches drones inside the capital without warning and when America refuses to leave, despite the Iraqi government asking them to (and yes, Kirby is a liar).
    5
  567. Long range strikes are just the new F-16s, which were the new Leopards, which were the new Himars and so on. Pointless, but demanding more is all they can do.
    5
  568.  @joshuauriarte452  Kurakhovo for example.
    5
  569.  @bobbyhenderson8655  What he is saying is that Russia is winning, which is pretty obvious.
    5
  570.  @TommyV8898  Sure it's not. That's why there are pages full of quotes stating otherwise.
    5
  571. The French can provide the reverse gear and the rear-view mirrors.😜
    5
  572. Ukraine's victory is impossible.
    5
  573. You mean we've been duped by the Americans.
    5
  574. The Americans did it.
    5
  575.  @George-2115  Sure, if you want to believe that, be my guest. Eventually we'll travel ban the one person who values vacations in London over Shanghai so much he's going to topple Putin.
    5
  576. We are literally doing the same with America.
    5
  577.  @sp7873  He told us starting in 2007 that our policy was a mistake.
    5
  578.  @straightreject2947  Reading the news lately must be really demoralising for you.
    5
  579.  @pjhgerlach  It kinda tried to do it in Ukraine after America overthrew the government.
    5
  580.  @SpecialMuppetOperation  Right, because the people in eastern Ukraine don't have any agency of their own.
    5
  581. No, this is a lie.
    5
  582. Great job, BoJo.
    5
  583. Do you realise that the comparison doesn't work?
    5
  584. Can we talk about democracy without hyperbole? Nope, challenge impossible.
    5
  585. I'd like to see a greater investment plan for Germany. Ukraine is a corrupt basket case as is, they can reform first.
    5
  586. Isn‘t that Russia‘s turf?
    5
  587. So, assuming that the casualties are staggering, does this mean the Ukrainian army is still losing to what, ten to twenty thousand mercenaries left?
    5
  588. So what you are telling me is that they don't want to further escalate in Ukraine?
    5
  589.  @illbet4589  Yes. It's bigger than Germany's and growing.
    5
  590. We've seen it for three years already. Wasn't impressive.
    5
  591.  @ImAmirus  Sure, I guess that according to you left-ish politics are conservative too, considering they have their roots in the 19th century.
    5
  592.  @ImAmirus  Oh, the government did a lot, like keeping their mouths shut over Nord Stream or sending weapons and money to Ukraine.
    5
  593.  @bogdar2019 I'm commenting on the hypocrisy.
    5
  594.  alloutofbubblegum7271  So you aren't just inhaling Ukrainian copium but Taiwanese, too.
    5
  595.  @IrrationalCharm  Have you not listened to the lady? She explained to you that the Kursk offensive isn't working as intended.
    5
  596. You actually can, but no one in Europe has the spine or moral courage for it.
    5
  597. There isn't anything we can do to help Ukraine win.
    5
  598.  @Paul-yh8km  Wonderful, and how do you propose we do that, considering Ukraine is losing and we don't have anything in sufficient quantity to ship to them to win?
    5
  599.  @lighterudite  I'll reflect on it when my tax money gets flushed into Moldova.
    5
  600. Do we call her a victim of the Zelensky curse?😛 Well whatever, now that they are official allies as opposed to inofficial I can only marvel at how much "stronger" NATO has grown through this symbolic posturing.
    5
  601.  @LH-fp8kr  Good, I hope so and since Biden would do the same, there is no need to worry about the outcome of the election.
    5
  602.  @13BulliTs  Since then?
    5
  603.  @CrispyRichter  And incapable of providing Ukraine with enough ammunition.
    5
  604. Good.
    5
  605. One can only hope that Biden will be punished at the polls.
    5
  606.  @thegreatdane3627  It's not about shipping manufacturing east, but working together, because I do not want to be shackled to the crazy warmongers in the west.
    5
  607.  @BashirAhmed-wr7lf  They can't. I'm ridiculing the reporting.
    5
  608. How else do you fight to the last man?
    5
  609.  @timonsolus  No, because Russia didn't give Iraq continuous training and funding.
    5
  610.  @thegreatdane3627  I didn't know that Iraq had been supplied by the Soviet Union through the entire conflict with money, ammunition and weapons, intelligence and training, not to mention the economic sanctions that the Soviet Union levelled on America. You never stop learning.🙄
    5
  611. 😂
    5
  612. sigh Still feeding the Ukrainians into the meatgrinder for American hegemony in a show of German servility (despite the bastards blowing up our infrastructure (and I'm talking about the Americans and not the Ukrainians, to be clear)).
    4
  613.  @proselytizingorthodoxpente8304  Why don't you take a map of the Kursk incursion and zoom out until you see all of Russia.
    4
  614.  @thegreatdane3627  "Unprovoked", besides the at least 16 years of baiting.
    4
  615. Thanks to Scholz and Biden.
    4
  616. Are we sure Armin Laschet didn't enter the government under a false name? On the topic of tanks, one Leopard for every five Abrams.
    4
  617. What a laugh of a thumbnail. What, suddenly this isn't a Putin talking point anymore?😂
    4
  618. Of course, it was America that destroyed Nord Stream after all.
    4
  619.  @spateri728  Were you sleeping under a rock?
    4
  620.  @carolinerondon8934  The same life most of humanity lived for most of history.
    4
  621.  @FunkySpaceLord  If you put a Ukraine flag up and denounce people as Russian trolls for having other opinions you can go to the front and prove your mettle. After all, you are certainly against negotiations, tpo.
    4
  622.  @American-In-Mykolaiv  No, someone from Germany telling you to put your money where your mouth is and to go to the front.
    4
  623. Thank God we now have one more fearmonger in NATO.
    4
  624. Good luck with your tiny populations.
    4
  625. And here I thought it was actually an American-style bill, seeing as the USA has the same type of law.
    4
  626.  @alexandrebittencourttande3264  Why would Putin want to make a speech to American vassals?
    4
  627.  @Lfgnyc  They would be that, if they just gifted Kamala their votes for nothing in exchange. Like most Blue voters do.
    4
  628. I suppose the shelling of the cathedral in Donetsk didn't happen then, if you don't mention it. ;)
    4
  629. That's new, usually they keep on fighting long past it making any sense.
    4
  630. * Insert Darth Vader screaming NOooOOOoOOo here *
    4
  631.  @AmonTheWitch  So there is no difference between him and the Dems then.
    4
  632.  @palar4195  Theoretically yes, but Russia is taking Ukraine's most productive areas, meaning that the rump state that will be left is the poorer part of an already poor country.
    4
  633. @Random_Dude42 No, because only what was already inofficially the case has become official?
    4
  634. It could be shorter. Just mention American lust for power.
    4
  635.  @kukulroukul4698  That's not true. If I in Germany want gas and gasoline from Russia I am forced to pay the Indians a mark-up.
    4
  636. Ukraine can't win.
    4
  637.  @showwars4508  You are threatmongering.
    4
  638. Can one really call him a military expert if he believes Ukraine can actually win the war this year? Well, at least he is a superb defence contractor lobbyist and propagandist.
    4
  639. No, he is just putting into words what you stand for.
    4
  640. Equally as useless as the first two?
    4
  641. Habeck isn't fit to manage a book store, much less the country.
    4
  642. More desperate attempts of Ukraine pretending as if they still had some kind of shot at victory.
    4
  643. Are we ready to admit that Ukraine is not winning and that keeping this war going is a huge mistake? No? Yeah, thought so. Then carry on I guess.
    4
  644. All I'm hearing is that the US needs to be more bellicose about cutting Taiwan out of China. I'm sure that won't end with sunken US ships in the Taiwan Straits in the nearish future. Can't say I'm going to cry over the loss of US hegemony.
    4
  645.  @Paul-yh8km  Yeah, yeah, if GDP were the end of the story Russia wouldn't be producing more than three times the ammunition the US and Europe combined do.
    4
  646.  @Paul-yh8km  I take it you are proud to sit in your home and demand that others sacrifice themselves for a lost cause.
    4
  647. So, did the Ukrainians already get the necessary training to operate the Patriot system or will NATO personal man the system themselves? Oh well, hopefully the Russians have worse rockets and drones than the Houthi in Yemen.
    4
  648. G7 is united. Please forget that Japan has already opted out of the oil cap price.
    4
  649. How much does NATO pay you for these comments? :P
    4
  650. Sure, any day now.
    4
  651. There is no threat, but you can always try and offer an incentive for more military spending in Germany.
    4
  652. Always? You want to qualify tthat perhaps?
    4
  653.  @thegreatdane3627  Instead of parroting me under a different video (wow, do I live rentfree in your head?) you could have read my comment directed at you under that other video. That way you wouldn't have to embarrass yourself further.
    4
  654. Nonsense. The "Crinks" aren't up against the wall.
    4
  655. More sanctions, more weapon packages, more of everything. Never learn anything, always double down, pray for a different outcome this time.🙄
    4
  656.  @TheRealBlueValhalla You mean the army NATO has so far utterly failed to defeat?
    4
  657. On what planet is Russia sinking?
    4
  658. Everyone outside the EU and the North American continent.
    4
  659. When you are in a terrible situation you cannot expect good deals.
    4
  660. We shouldn't decouple from China.
    4
  661.  @thegreatdane3627  I can assure you that I don't have to pretend. It's very much the reason for my contempt for the chancellor.
    4
  662. If only he'd push for stronger ties with all BRICS countries we might have a shot at escaping the American shadow.
    4
  663.  @toi_techno  We can't even properly supply Ukraine with ammunition. What are you talking about?
    4
  664. Pointless escalation.
    4
  665. They downed 6 hypersonic missiles, huh? Okay, I totally believe that.
    4
  666.  @dennischiu272  Well, I would reply with examples, but the comments get shad0wbanned.
    4
  667. You understand that you are fearmongering over a man who was already president once and was compared to the current occupant of the position rather successful?
    4
  668. This is getting ridiculous. The hysteria is spreading.
    4
  669. In what way?
    4
  670. The number of American bootlickers in the comments is astonishing.
    4
  671. She's currently talking up Russiagate 3.0 in the US.
    4
  672. Putin is probably anticipating many eye-rolls regarding statements made at the NATO summit.
    4
  673. I hope so. I want to vote against him.
    4
  674.  @chidera66 Israel is bombing civilians at the same time we condemn Russia for bombing civilians. Of course, according to the numbers of the UN Israel has already surpassed Russia in the number of civilians killed.
    4
  675. Like America.
    4
  676. The US should be kicked out.
    4
  677. No, they can't. Let's be realistic here.
    4
  678.  @thegreatdane3627  There you go again with false comparisons.
    4
  679.  @martavdz4972  8 days ago DW News produced a video on India and it "silencing the opposition". Just type India in the search bar of the channel. By the way, I'm not Indian. I'm European myself.
    4
  680. Since when is it yours?
    4
  681. Good. We wouldn't want to stop our occupation of the place. It's our duty to force people to live in Kosovo. Borders are sacrosanct (except when they aren't), there will never be a reconsideration of the basic premise that is obviously not working.🙄
    4
  682. No. Israel is to blame.
    4
  683.  @AbNan11  The Ukrainians.
    4
  684.  @Hession0Drasha  Read the news, our factories are leaving.
    4
  685. What reaction do you expect? Armenia’s president decided that letting part of his people be cleansed is a good idea to join the West. Can’t really help people like that.
    4
  686. Because someone colonised them?
    4
  687. Do we even have airworthy fighter jets?😂 Not that sending weapons is going to solve the crisis, but then again, negotiations are at this point off the table. Thanks, Boris.
    4
  688.  @hape3862  Sure buddy. The struggle for funds from abroad is democracy, too.
    4
  689.  @helios7212  Wow, you are uninformed. Have you not watched the video? It mentioned the struggle within Ukraine for the call-up of another half a million men, on top of the what, eight partial mobilisations the country already undertook? Does that sound like Russia is losing?
    4
  690. Weapons are a way to peace, as we have seen so far.🙄 But sure, let Stoltenberg believe that Russia will at some point lose.
    4
  691. Because he still shows signs of intelligence.
    4
  692. But the Swifties!!!! So, anyone here willing to tell me Kamala was a good candidate?
    4
  693.  @oleg.lyamin  Russia is one step closer to fully occupying Donbass for one, which is a big political victory as this is what the Russian army (allegedly) set out to accomplish in February. As I mentioned, the headquarters of the Donbass grouping is in Kramatorsk. If the city becomes a frontline city, the people there, those with the big strategic overview, will either have to face constant shelling or need to evacuate, likely behind the Dnieper. And what do you think is going to happen once Russia reaches the Dnieper? That Ukraine will somehow reclaim the lands, in what, a massive river crossing in a year? Certainly not with the horrifying losses the country has already so far suffered, just watch von der Leyen's unedited admission. That area will be permanently lost.
    4
  694. Israel was one, too.
    4
  695. Currently it isn't.
    4
  696.  @costy_523  Preventing NATO from expanding into the country.
    4
  697. Why would Russia do that?
    4
  698.  @jebbo-c1l  Oh sure. Then give me a source.
    4
  699. So she loves war. Who cares what she has to say?
    4
  700.  @slartybarfastb3648  Yes it matters. Just because America has been feeling like burning down Europe's neighbourhood for the last twenty years does not mean Germany shouldn't make its own, financially sound, decisions.
    4
  701. Can someone remind me when the Nord Stream bombers want to send their Abrams in order to prolong the war?
    4
  702. They are doing it, because it is easy to hammer America's atrocious behaviour on this issue.
    4
  703. But remember how we have to hate Russia?
    4
  704. Germany defeated Russia in WW1.
    4
  705.  @ultrasunione98  Did you forget Yugoslawia?
    4
  706.  @thegreatdane3627  Stating facts isn't work, but I'm glad you bootlicker are still active and well.
    4
  707.  @anacc3257  Sounds like Israel.
    4
  708. No, Germany can't do anything and neither can NATO.
    4
  709.  @jacobrandall4891  Yes, this is how diplomacy is being done. You don't play the petulant child in lala land, you deal with reality and its inhabitants respectfully. Especially since you are willing to bend over every table for American presidents.
    4
  710. The military response is already an escalation.
    4
  711.  @EricDraven-ci8wi  Good to hear, our policy isn't " 'til the last Ukrainian" for nothing.
    4
  712. Actually following the Minsk agreements would have ended the war, too. Sadly this corrupt tool didn't do it.
    4
  713. Scholz is nothing but a shoe polisher for the frail old man that bombed our infrastructure. The only reason he is in Washington is to receive his marching orders on how to further damage Germany's economy when the US finally manages to get the war in Taiwan off the ground.
    4
  714. What gains? The Russians are advancing towards Kupiansk.
    4
  715. I mean, pretty sure they said they would release a position paper, not a peace plan. Anyway, their paper on American hegemony is far more interesting. If you ask me, it spells out that war is coming to the Pacific. As for Ukraine, meh, China cares not and isn't putting any sort of pressure on Russia. Nor is India. Whenever the media tries to present it this way, you see nothing but wishful thinking.
    4
  716.  @xo121w  It did not, but keep telling yourself that.
    4
  717.  @tayler2396  Do you inject copium directly into your veins or do you sniff it?
    4
  718. Yes, that's why Russia keeps hitting Ukraine with those.
    4
  719.  @maneshipocrates  You are criticising her, although she was right. Had the Americans let it there, we wouldn't be in this situation.
    4
  720.  @GoosterHiista  Well, you can always bubblewrap yourself in the narrative Deutsche Welle provides.
    4
  721. If he had any he'd be asking about Nord Stream.
    4
  722.  @TheBogdanator  How much copium did you have to take to write this sort of nonsense? If that were true, NATO would have already delivered that many planes and put their pilots in Ukrainian uniforms.😒
    4
  723.  @sharingsharedudebro1236  No, the Cold War ended with negotiations in 1989, not in 1991 when the USSR collapsed.
    4
  724. Yes. Ukraine should have negotiated in April last year, it should have negotiated in the fall of last year like Mark Milley suggested, the longer they wait the worse the peace will become. As for the dimwits hoping to get a NATO-entry this way, Russia will never agree to a deal that leaves the door open.
    4
  725.  @flost8202  Because the Israelis do their best impression of Germany from 80 years ago.
    4
  726.  @Caro-e3f  No, it's in Gaza.
    4
  727.  @alhambrabiker1476  What happened in the Trade Union House in Odessa?
    4
  728. She's terrible and should be voted out.
    4
  729. It means nothing.
    4
  730. Getting really desperate now.
    4
  731.  @benfreiler4054  On no no no, you don't get to skip the first step of the conflict because it doesn't fit your message. This started when America got involved in Ukraine.
    4
  732.  @alhambrabiker1476  Don't embarrass yourself.
    4
  733. Step 1: Agree to a neutral Ukraine. Step 2: Reduce dependence on America.
    4
  734.  @PjotrII  I imagine they do so because it's cheap. North Korea doesn't strike me as a country with labour costs higher than Russia's, not to mention that I'm sure North Korea has aging stocks just lying around.
    4
  735. The Ukraine war is a grift.
    4
  736.  @JoonasJ86  You mean not helping America increase its hegemoy? Yes, sounds like a plan.
    4
  737.  @DaniRaj666  But I'm not a Ukrainian soldier?
    4
  738. Oh look at that, Kursk is collapsing so the Ukrainians do something for their PR.
    4
  739. Why would Russia make concessions?
    4
  740. Better solution: America stops provoking wars.
    4
  741.  @jodieford5738  No, they wanted to pursue it further. The EU trying to overthrow them in a colour revolution soured them on it, though.
    4
  742.  @bogdar2019  The one in the Middle East.
    4
  743. First world, everybody.
    4
  744.  @SorminaEriana  He's just parroting Austin without a hint of irony.
    4
  745. More fearmongering.
    4
  746.  @DacianRider  Yeah, yeah, the madman Putin theory.
    4
  747. You don't make any sense.
    4
  748. What about our pipelines?
    4
  749. Are you on the payroll of the Nord Stream bombers?
    4
  750.  @ScentlessSun You mean World War 1 became what it was when Russia started mobilising for war and refused to call it off.
    4
  751.  @ScentlessSun  Germany only started one world war.
    4
  752.  @ragesmirk  What, me? I am pointing out that Israel lost a war, how does that make me a warmonger?
    4
  753.  @thegreatdane3627  Cheap energy from Russia and China is Germany's biggest export market. What are you even talking about?
    4
  754. Yeah, good luck with that. We can't match Russian shell production and can't keep up with Ukraine's shell hunger. Begging some more won't expand production by itself.
    4
  755. It’ll be the same outcome as in Belgorod.
    4
  756.  @MrDosonhai  Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Serbia, do those ring a bell?
    4
  757. It isn’t, this is merely narrative construction.
    4
  758. Oh God. Especially the part about single men having children with themselves.
    4
  759. You believe that your bloated defence budget stems from NATO not meeting the 2% goal? Really?
    4
  760. Youtube really doesn't appreciate me stating that we are wrecking the country with our policies.
    4
  761. Nah, German troops should stay where they are.
    4
  762. "Make peace, you fools. What else can you do?"
    4
  763. Considering he just stood there and took it when Biden announced what he was going to do to our infrastructure? I agree.
    4
  764.  @Dorgpoop  That's just not true. Germany has only started saving on the military following the 90s.
    4
  765.  @derwolfpack3599  Right, American politicians were on the Maidan to hand out cookies.
    4
  766. America did.
    4
  767.  @thilakhari  Fewer destabilising military adventures in all corners of the world, duh.
    4
  768.  @thilakhari  And I believe that the USA should be partitioned.
    4
  769.  @waremblem8837  They are illegally occupying Syria and Iraq wants them gone.
    4
  770. As opposed to the establishment, that is somehow saving Ukraine. Just ignore the state of the war.
    3
  771. Ukraine isn't winning with the military support either.
    3
  772. "I'm getting my butt handed to me in elections, I gotta do something about it."
    3
  773.  @Venomhide  America broke the Budapest memorandum first when they coup'ed the legally elected government of Ukraine in 2014.
    3
  774.  @thegreatdane3627  Might that have had something to do with the economic blitzkrieg that we attempted?
    3
  775. Lithuania doesn’t want to go the way of the Dodo.
    3
  776.  @danwelterweight4137  Doesn't change that Germany beat Russia so badly they had two revolutions and a civil war over that defeat. Also, it didn't happen at the same time, what are you even talking about?
    3
  777.  @rogerbrownreacts8528  Please do, the sooner we get rid of them the better.
    3
  778.  @thegreatdane3627  It was a German pipeline, too.
    3
  779. They already tried, but it didn't work.
    3
  780.  @Pointi69  So that we can rid ourselves of the American overlord dragging us down (and attacking us).
    3
  781. Hopefully Trump’s. Getting sick and tired of the constant escalation of the Biden administration.
    3
  782. How dare they not want to watch the EU go down!
    3
  783. This war is reaching an "attritional phase" after the Russian military officials said this would be their strategy back in summer last year. Fantastic, our media has caught up.
    3
  784. Ideologues in love with America's "humanitarian" interventions.
    3
  785. What do you mean, feeble? The Iron Dome completely failed.
    3
  786. Ups, someone had a case of foot in mouth. Funny, but no reason for a resignation if you ask me. Not that the government isn't working hard on giving us more legitimate reasons for resignations.
    3
  787. The US should get out of Germany.
    3
  788. You'd need a working military industrial complex.
    3
  789. Obviously.
    3
  790.  @harshbutfair8993  You could have argued that Ukraine is not losing the war, yet you chose to make a pathetic smear attempt. I can only conclude that the truth hurts.
    3
  791. At an average firing rate of 5000 shells per day the EU just agreed to send ammunition for 200 days over the next 12 months. From our own stocks of course, so allow me a slow clap. Clap, clap.🙄 Well, we've been sending weapons and shells for months now to get Ukraine into a better negotiation position (or so is claimed from time to time), except of course that there aren't any attempts to facilitate talks. So just keep pumping more into Ukraine, eventually we'll try to talk peace, right? Right?😂
    3
  792. Weird, I thought the Russians wanted to pull out ten days ago?😂
    3
  793. Well duh, we haven't yet killed all Ukrainians, that obviously means we have to send more weapons and block negotiations until the entire country is sufficiently depopulated and devastated.🙄
    3
  794. George W. Bush?
    3
  795. Especially when you consider that they won't.
    3
  796. There are differences, though. For example that Germany has also defeated Russia in the past.
    3
  797. Of course those “geniuses” (damn censorship) plan to send the missiles
    3
  798. I'm just gonna lean out of the window here and say: as long as he has to.
    3
  799. Whatever we don't like is caused by Russia. Convenient for politicians.
    3
  800. "No international pressure on the governments of Egypt and Qatar... to help Israel cleanse the Gaza Strip." Fixed it for you.
    3
  801. How about you leave that fantasy construct of yours and join us in reality?
    3
  802. @Random_Dude42 That is not the same as being part of NATO military planning as an ally.
    3
  803.  @HeartFeltGesture  Times were tough because of the first world war, that shouldn't have been fought in the first place. Just like this war was unnecessary, but the planners in Washington saw it differently.
    3
  804. Trump is such a breath of fresh air. Without him America doesn't have a mask to hide behind and everyone sees what America has always been.
    3
  805.  @fitness7268  I can't quite tell what you are trying to say here, but if you are referring to the April attacks, Israel caused them by attacking Damascus and the embassy there.
    3
  806.  @7up-dp1kk  Fleets to secure trade lines? We recently humiliated ourselves in the Red Sea.
    3
  807. Just split the country and return the north to Serbia. It's not that hard.
    3
  808. How united is NATO on Ukraine? The Nord Stream terrorists are pissed at the Brits for trying to corral them into sending aircraft (which is why Wallace didn't get the spot of NATO secretary general), Germany and others condemned the Nord Stream terrorists' desperate cluster ammunition delivery. Not to mention that our allies blew up our pipelines. Man, I can't picture a NATO more united than this.😒 And I mean, just look at how powerful NATO is, with its capability to send ammunition and artillery depleted. Truly terrifying.🙄 Oh right, and before I forget it: Jim Townsend is apparently a clown living in a fantasy world. I wonder if in his imagination NATO pilots are riding dragons.
    3
  809. This isn't how you create safety.
    3
  810. Yeah, and that old German guard taught Israel everything it needed to know about how to conduct a military campaign.
    3
  811.  @sH-ed5yf  America blew up Nord Stream. And Germany doesn't have an army of 350k. It's less than 200k.
    3
  812.  @cowubl  Our politicians don't have spines.
    3
  813.  @seanthe100  I know, the US is insulated from any consequences of its behaviour (until the situation in the Pacific turns hot).
    3
  814. Doesn't matter what Trump wants, it's going to happen.
    3
  815.  @thegreatdane3627  No? You are implying that Russia's policy has been a failure, but just last week or so Zelensky started talking about how Ukraine couldn't go on like this for years. So you know, doesn't seem like a failure since Russia is grinding the opposition down?
    3
  816. Wanna actually discuss a realistic peace? No? Well, then carry on.
    3
  817. Just keep dangling that hope in front of Ukraine, can't have them get dangerous ideas like them realising that they cannot win and that they are throwing away their leverage in peace talks.
    3
  818. Hopefully the people will vote for the parties that force us to finance Ukraine and Israel.
    3
  819. Russiagate-truther.
    3
  820. If they want to worsen Ukraine's post war conditions, sure, go ahead.
    3
  821.  @dragoninsight4232  Did you find a second Milley and added up their three days statements?
    3
  822. Ukraine can't win.
    3
  823.  @lepetitroquet9410  He is saying that the Russian army keeps growing larger and outguns the Ukrainians by at least a factor of three.
    3
  824. Ah, enslavement, Russian women telling their husbands to rape the women, viagra being distributed among the troops, torture chambers, kidnapping children, have we heard anything about throwing babies out of incubators?
    3
  825. Germany rearmed after WW2. Guess what happened then?
    3
  826. Good thing we in Europe will absolutely not be dragged into this by the Americans when the time comes.
    3
  827. Meh, just another riot.
    3
  828. Right, because the beacon of democracy is across the Atlantic.🤣
    3
  829. A world order based on state sovereignty is now hierarchical and autocratic? What, can't we march into other countries anymore in order to regime change them like in the past three decades?😛 So, nothing new then. China and Russia work together, we pretend that a catastrophic defeat of Russia in the Ukraine is possible and our chancellor Scholz is a clown too scared to demand answers from the USA regarding our pipelines.
    3
  830. Except that is never going to happen.
    3
  831. So both sides said factually correct things. That's surprising.
    3
  832.  @jacqdanieles  The comparison doesn't make any sense, I have a higher power to appeal to. It's called the police.
    3
  833.  @arthurarthur6083  Ignoring for a moment that it's actually the other way around, with Russia having a three times advantage in ammunition production over the entire West, I live in the West.
    3
  834.  @Agent-lr4ez No, Serbia did.
    3
  835. No hypersonic missiles for one.
    3
  836.  @MarincaGheorghe  Well, Ukraine can't win, but if you prefer it to go down fighting and getting even more destroyed in the process, be my guest, but spare me the crocodile tears at the end.
    3
  837. Peace talks? What a novel idea. It's not going to happen, but it's refreshing to hear. Also, lol at Brazil not wanting to be a party to the war by arming Ukraine. NATO is not a party to the war despite arming Ukraine. That's true, right? ... right?😃
    3
  838. You are talking about 18 tanks. Let's not get ahead of ourselves and shout "this is going to mark a major shift in the Ukraine's battlefield capability". As for the nuclear plant, just get the Nord Stream bombers to tell the Ukraine to stop shelling it. There, you would have achieved safety for the plant.
    3
  839.  @Crmson117  Germany is already bowing down to America.
    3
  840.  @paulhargreaves1497  Riiigght, and then it's a march to the Rhine, then the English channel and before you know it Russia crosses the Atlantic.
    3
  841.  @paulhargreaves1497  Aha, and what do you expect to be found?
    3
  842. Is this the first time that DW News is acknowledging that the Russians are working their way towards Kupiansk? Whatever, the Taurus missiles aren't changing anything, it's just another step away from peace talks.
    3
  843. The campaign is financed and supplied by Biden, his cronies and the US.
    3
  844.  @therealking6202  Then why are his approval ratings higher than Biden's?
    3
  845. Blame Israel.
    3
  846. Iran is the victim here.
    3
  847. And how exactly?
    3
  848. A big one. Ukraine goes from losing the war to losing the war.🙄
    3
  849. Just as Israel intends.
    3
  850. Can't be. Count again until you find results that a pro-EU and pro-NATO! - Ursula von der Lying probably.
    3
  851. "When something happens I don't like then it's clearly Russia's doing. Russia is simultaneously incredibly weak, but also controlling and puppetering everything."
    3
  852. This is just historical revisionism. NATO-expansion despite constant Russian warnings is at fault.
    3
  853. May the Nord Stream destroyer lose badly.
    3
  854.  @derwolfpack3599  Obviously you have no clue about who wrote the German Grundgesetz, but I am not surprised.
    3
  855. In actuality the majority of would-be-affected are against the reintroduction, but that doesn't sound as good as "opinion is divided".
    3
  856.  @2Oldcoots  Oh, Portugal is Russia's neighbour then? Gotta update that atlas then.
    3
  857.  @ethanragbir8311  They are literally unable to provide Ukraine with enough ammunition to fight. How are they supposed to supply themselves in a fight?
    3
  858. But, but the media told us that we cannot for some reason.
    3
  859. Well, they went from losing to losing, so i suppose we can call that progress.
    3
  860.  @Euroscot9155  The Americans provoked the war starting with the Bukarest summit in 2008.
    3
  861. Ukraine will lose, but we'll refuse negotiations anyway.
    3
  862.  @Arch497  Yes, they are losing. What's your point? That losing doesn't mean losing within a day?
    3
  863.  @soundscape26  Nothing, because of the nuclear weapons both sides have. There won't be a war if only because of those.
    3
  864.  @soundscape26  No, I lock the door, despite living in a safe neighbourhood. I do not see how that relates to my comment, though. The polls tell us that Germans under 30, the ones most likely to get conscripted, do not want conscription and I feel free to point out that that's in part because they don't feel threatened because we aren't.
    3
  865.  @Ducky97743  Yeah sure.
    3
  866. Bla bla bla, all that is wrong in the world is Russia's fault. Canada honours a Waffen-SS soldier? Russia's fault. Inflation? Russia's fault. The Wirecard scandal? Russia's fault. Bla bla bla.
    3
  867.  @juamu1132  What happened? Germany lost to other powers. Still smashed Russia in WW1.
    3
  868. Germany defeated Russia in WW1. It's not going to help Ukraine, but Germany did it.
    3
  869. ​ @thegreatdane3627  You have apparently not paid attention to the last 24 years of history, but soon enough you are going to draw a straight line from Chechnia to Ukraine, am I right? America has since at least 2008 pursued a policy of aggression against Russia.
    3
  870.  @thegreatdane3627  What do we get out of it, besides more instability?
    3
  871.  @willhudson5625  So you don't want to share any evidence, got it.
    3
  872.  @Dani-mw2ws  Well yeah, it actually doesn't have any importance.
    3
  873. Now please have Germany follow suit.
    3
  874. Remember that Polish farmers got pissed at Ukrainian grain flooding Poland? But hey, AfrICa Is StaRVinG!😏
    3
  875. Ah, the Belarusian president. I'd really like to know how the Belarusian population actually view her.
    3
  876. Sigh, how disappointing.
    3
  877.  @6j6666  Does that make the American aircraft carriers any less of a target for missiles?
    3
  878.  @6j6666  I am, but you seem stuck in the past.
    3
  879. Just leave the country alone. Haven't we learnt anything from the misadventures of the Nord Stream terrorists in the Middle East?
    3
  880.  @junioradult6219  You mean when they refused to cede their land to recent immigrants?
    3
  881.  @dreamer5234  Sure he did.
    3
  882.  @sogerc1  Sure they did. Somehow Putin has become the most powerful man in the world in the last eight years (but also he is totally weak, because double speak is how our media works).
    3
  883. Oh, now Biden, the Democrats and the media are calling for moderation.
    3
  884. 😂
    3
  885. Yeah, but nothing after Nord Stream.
    3
  886.  @pooroldnostradamus  Why, discriminating against minorities is ok when we feel like it?
    3
  887.  @stevenkraft8070  Nonsense.
    3
  888.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  Oh, what happened with Nord Stream? How independent are we actually?
    3
  889. Well, Israel sowed wind again.
    3
  890.  @Shatterfury1871  Is that why they keep inviting American experts who keep pushing American view points on Germany?
    3
  891. America liked the free-riding until China came along.
    3
  892. No.
    3
  893. What underestimation? People have been warning since the 90s that expanding NATO eastwards was a terrible idea, now we are wondering how this entirely "unpredictable" event could have happened. The Baltics should shut their mouths regarding escalation. At some point the USA will pivot away from eastern Europe out of necessity and Russia will still be there. And I don't see why Germany should be ready to defend them if they can't stop running their mouths.
    3
  894. Pfff, I doubt Habeck is actually strongly pushing back against the overlord.
    3
  895. @fka-Kaya You mean he reiterated his position? That every negotiation has to start with Istanbul+?
    3
  896. Apparently we go from one neocon administration to the next.
    3
  897.  @Lorenz1973  Of course they are foreign agents, it's literally the definition. Not to mention that the EU and its member states should not interfere in the political life of others without scrutiny. It's undermining the sovereignty of said others if the EU or the American subsidise parties in favour of others, just because they want to push certain policies through.
    3
  898.  @jailbreak852  And what would be the actual reason then? That a country they aren't even at good terms with is not disclosing where all the money is coming from that is influencing society and politics?
    3
  899.  @jaunt3603  What's there to be balanced about? Europe decided to sanction Russia to oblivion and Russia has because of that slowly closed the tap (and then someone blew up three of the four Nord Stream pipelines).
    3
  900.  @jaunt3603  Said who? I'm saying that this faux outrage is hypocrisy of the highest order, one that we are always engaged in when it suits our geopolitical ambitions.
    3
  901. Punished Scholz should step down.
    3
  902.  @hape3862  You are really reaching, man, but let's say I were to accept that. The manpower issues and the political infighting regarding another mobilisation is democracy. The grifting and begging in the West is democracy. I suppose the lack of industrial capacity and shell hunger is democracy, too, in that case?
    3
  903. I’m sure the serial lier (who’s responsible for Nord Stream) knows how to tell the truth.
    3
  904. You should read the latest headlines in the American press.
    3
  905. No
    3
  906.  @chrismacdonald102  The IMF is saying the economy is growing and the US isn't even capable of keeping up with Ukraine's ammunition needs.
    3
  907. No thanks, you broke it, you pay for it.
    3
  908. A first step towards defunding America's proxy war.
    3
  909. Right, it’s Russia that is screwed….
    3
  910. Your experts have been expertly lying about this war and false expectations collided with reality. That's what happened.
    3
  911. And America could stop this whenever they wanted.
    3
  912. Build a wall and make Poland pay for it!😂
    3
  913. Scholz doesn't have a spine, so no.
    3
  914. I appreciate Boris Johnson for personally scuttling the peace talks in April. Thank God he intervened, could you imagine the damage an end to the conflict would have caused?
    3
  915. Why would China do that? They know they are next after Russia.
    3
  916.  @qili3899 It's the cheapest source.
    3
  917.  @blanamaxima  Please, is that the reason why the EU is flailing around to find more things to sanction?
    3
  918.  @filipe5722  Sounds like the future won't be so bad then.
    3
  919. My guess? He doesn't believe in the bulshit that the Nord Stream bombers and their lackeys in Brussels try to sell him. You'd be surprised how sobering it is to watch the EU continue trying to stop the Russian war machine through sanctions, apparently oblivious to the fact that they are already rolling out the 12th package when SWIFT was supposed to be the "nuclear" option. It's also just common sense to try and keep communication channels open.
    3
  920.  @stanchern3796  Our "pro-active" stance provoked the war in the first place.
    3
  921. Reality asserted itself against the narrative.
    3
  922.  @thegreatdane3627  Peace. What else?
    3
  923.  @alhambrabiker1476  Both broken by the West.
    3
  924.  @brandonsdead9242  Well yes, but rest assured, China has enough warships that it doesn't need to fight with fishing boats.
    3
  925.  @rcchin7897  That too.
    3
  926.  @СветославТасев  Why? As far as I am concerned we should have dropped the Ukraine project yesterday, or better yet, on the 23rd of February 2022.
    3
  927.  @AA99580  Then stop burning down our neighbourhood.
    3
  928.  @meisievannancy  Oh I'm sorry, they were just besieged, not occupied. The actual occupation happens in the Westbank, while the occupation of Gaza ended in 2006. Since then Israel only occasionally mowed the lawn. As for the aggressor, don't kid yourself. It's Israel. Always has been. After all, the Israelis are the ones who came to the land and took it over from the natives.
    3
  929. Zelensky in a nutshell.
    3
  930. It was obvious this would be happening when we decided to refuse all and any diplomacy.
    3
  931.  @JG-xi4tu  Aha. Who claimed the Ukrainians did it with a few artillery shells again?
    3
  932. You are assuming that the West actually cares about Ukraine beyond its potential to hurt Russia.
    3
  933. Talk about delusional.
    3
  934. It'll drag the war out a bit. Other than that, none.
    3
  935.  @patrolmanpete  To do what exactly?
    3
  936. Listen Orban, our strategy of endless war may be failing and our sanctions may have come back to bite us, but that is no reason to do diplomacy. Are you insane? We have to go down with this ship. America wants us to.
    3
  937.  @RobinTorrekensTravelVlog  Except they did absolutely nothing to push the Minsk agreements through and torpedoed the Istanbul talks.
    3
  938. What an absurd statement after watching the US utterly fail in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.
    3
  939.  @ryanhartnett530  We don't have superior firepower, genius. That's why Russia enjoys an artillery advantage.
    3
  940. So Ukraine is planning to attack the ZNP. Got it.
    3
  941.  @johnadam2885  Right, because sending barely trained pilots against the Russian anti-air weaponry would have somhow brought victory.
    3
  942. Well, I'm not surprised. Ukraine decided that it wouldn't agree (nor the West), because apparently 36 hours are enough to redeploy, re-outfit and replenish an entire army.😒
    3
  943. Noodleback, of course Scholz caved.
    3
  944. Thank you, Scholz, thank you, Biden.
    3
  945. "Isolated on the international stage." Yeah, still smoking that good stuff, are you? I'm kind of getting bored by these attempts at painting Russia as losing the war. If that were the case you'd actually see international isolation.
    3
  946. Germany should stand against the US.
    3
  947.  @monumentaltravel3745  Right, or they are completely made up.
    3
  948.  @nicocrestmere9688  And what do they do in Kursk, besides getting shelled all day?
    3
  949.  @kyro.6  Here is an idea then. Stop oppressing people.
    3
  950.  @adamredwine774  It cares about neither.
    3
  951.  @mharley3791  No, because the influence would wane. What they want is a strong, but completely subservient continent.
    3
  952.  @phoenix5054  Who could have known that America would provoke a war that they would then lose?
    3
  953. Well, Niu-York by Toretsk has fallen and the lines before Pokrovsk are falling apart. So good job on diverting Russian troops from Donbas I guess.
    3
  954.  @wandeling127  You aren't particularly clever, are you?
    3
  955. Probably spent on American garbage.
    3
  956.  @francoisleveille409  He's right though?
    3
  957. As America commands.
    3
  958.  @АртемАртем-л4э  I'm sure one of von der Leyen's children has a Russian boyfriend or girlfriend. Meet the new President of the Russian Federation.😄
    3
  959.  @nigelgarrett7970  You honestly believe that the interest will cover all of the 50 billion plus interest? Seriously? No wonder America takes us to the cleaners each and every time.
    3
  960.  @Raja-dm7jk  Thank you, but no. If it were up to me Europe would have already divested from America's project.
    3
  961.  @Matthew-rp3jf  You provoked Russia and even then you were wrong about the date. Thanks for nothing.
    3
  962.  @nigelgarrett7970  I mean, NATO isn't on the Ukrainian border, which has been the goal (and you are forgetting the Baltics). As for the other, when did that become a goal?
    3
  963.  @HaleG9  Ah, the first to come scream "heresy". What's your plan, besides losing the war?
    3
  964. It's not, a neutral Ukraine is within Germany's interest, but our government is subordinating that to Washington's wishes.
    3
  965. Ukraine isn't going to win either way, so the point is moot.
    3
  966.  @Amradar123  Sure, they'll magick up production capacities.
    3
  967. Free and fair elections.😂
    3
  968.  @yagi3925  But international law and the rules based international order are two different things. One is what the nations of the world agreed to, the other is the selectively applied means by which America enforces its will.
    3
  969. Don't believe your lying eyes, Ukraine is winning...
    3
  970. Depends on how long Ukraine keeps the war up. The cost for peace will increase the longer it takes.
    3
  971. No, because it has been and still is a lie.
    3
  972.  @jacksondrake-lost  No, we don't.
    3
  973.  @SimSimon87  You are just showing that you do not understand the issue. If money alone could actually solve all problems, it would have already done so.
    3
  974. If only Germany could get out of NATO and the G7. There is now even another side we could join to get out from under Washington's thumb.
    3
  975.  @jorsm.3893  No, just most of them. Which is why the coup government decided to use the military.
    3
  976.  @pjhgerlach  Russia has more men and Ukraine has been in a mobilisation crisis for months now.
    3
  977. What a noodle-back we have for a chancellor. Ok, see you in roughly four months for the next game changer.
    3
  978. Blatantly and aggressively pushing nonsense.
    3
  979. Wonderful. People who didn't do anything have to pay people who never suffered any crimes money.
    3
  980. America helped.
    3
  981. Intelligent?😂
    3
  982.  @howhigh0521  Yeah, as if our Gurkentruppe could deal with the Russians.
    3
  983. Well of course it is not just about Ukraine, it's about America, too.
    3
  984.  @alhambrabiker1476  You are clueless.
    3
  985. At a guess? Orban wants to achieve peace with his peace missions. Unlike the West, that isn’t looking for peace through their peace summits that aren’t.
    3
  986. Just tell America to stop encircling Russia and China.
    3
  987. Scholz and Biden are at fault.
    3
  988.  @shazam992  And before that he annoyed us for F-16s. Look where giving him those brought us. Back to the begging for something else. One could almost come to the conclusion that there isn't anything that can save the country.
    3
  989.  @shazam992  Then why are we back in the same situation again?
    3
  990. That's the reason they have to make concessions.
    3
  991.  @petergreenwood7731  Because they want to have their say in who governs the country.
    3
  992.  @TheTwangKings  The Union is the biggest party in the country and had the most chancellors, what are you talking about?
    3
  993. I feel so much safer now, knowing that the planes of the country that blew up our infrastructure in the Baltics are flying above us.😒
    3
  994. Never again is everyday, except when it's in Gaza and the Westbank.
    3
  995. Kirby and the US have literally no self-awareness. Or rather, they are shamelessly bullshitting you at every step possible.
    3
  996. So she is on the Russian version of the Myrotvorets list?
    3
  997.  @nigelleyland166  Don''t you feel embarrassed writing that? This is the same story people wrote in March last year when the war started and oh look at that, those "conscripts" with no food and ammunition have repelled the Ukrainian offensive so successfully, command must be wondering why they even bothered creating all these defensive lines if the minefields are apparently enough.
    3
  998. And I thought the US dodged the bullet in 2016.😂
    3
  999.  @18.kunalbeniwal23  Oh noes, would the American proxy war end? Cannot have that, the HORROR!🤧
    3
  1000. No, but we‘ll pretend for two weeks that it will.
    3
  1001.  @missano3856  Yeah, because America is just this sort of lunatic world player.
    3
  1002. I wish we would dump the Nord Stream bombers, but no, we have to be subservient vassals. Now guess why China isn't particularly impressed by us.
    3
  1003. Absolutely. We had the Battle of Kursk last year.
    3
  1004.  @soulsphere9242  Did Russia declare their intention of incorporating Ukraine in 2008?
    3
  1005.  @Omega0850  Apparently your understanding of the war extends only to colours on a map. Here are questions you need to ask yourself: losses in manpower and equipment, destruction of infrastructur, amount of reinforcements, training, etc. Sure, you can point at Kherson city and marvel at how Ukraine moved into empty space without any strategic value they can exploit, or you can recognise the reality that Russia conserved her manpower while Ukraine has frivolously thrown it away in bullheaded attack after bullheaded attack. What does all the territory in the world mean if your army is destroyed and you cannot hold it a day longer. Now quick, it's now your turn to tell me about the humongous losses the Russians have taken (according to the trustworthy sources of the Ukrainians that also keep claiming that Russia will run out of missles any day now).
    3
  1006. @Lessons in Logic Right. In your fantasy world, is the sky red, do milk and honey flow down the rivers and do the pigs fly?
    3
  1007.  @sebastianteister  So your fig leaf is that America of all places would totally always do things by the book.🙄
    3
  1008. Not to worry, Greece will be thrown out of NATO (sans the Aegean islands of course) before Turkey would. In case you ever wondered if NATO is a community of shared values.
    3
  1009.  @pepepistola9258  Are you talking about the shrinking "gains" of that monumental blunder by the Ukrainians?
    3
  1010. He's drawing the line so that the spineless coward knows where and when to step over it.
    3
  1011. Oh no, how terrible. Anyway.
    3
  1012. I'm sure Blinken is deeply concerned about escalation while his government is funding the war and the ethnic cleansing without any strings attached, giving Israel a blank cheque.
    3
  1013. Number 3 has me in stitches and not just that.😂
    3
  1014. America provoked this.
    3
  1015. Have Israel and the US ever paid for their crimes?
    3
  1016. Zelensky never said that.
    3
  1017. Zelensky never said that.
    3
  1018.  @fanamlawuli6761  Yeah, they are too drunk on their own koolaid.
    3
  1019.  @derwolfpack3599  That American politicians flew to Ukraine during the protests to hand out cookies. Whatever else could I mean?
    3
  1020. Winners seldomly make concessions.
    3
  1021. John Bolton should never ever be given a mic.
    3
  1022. I am looking forward to the audit of the Pentagon.
    2
  1023.  @thegreatdane3627  He's not, this is all about America provoking Russia knowingly, which we know from William Burns' leaked memo from 2008. The bastards knew exactly what they were doing and the most favourable reading of the events you can have is that they thought Russia was bluffing and would meekly cower before the "awesomeness" of America.
    2
  1024.  @NZobservatory  You have apparently no idea what Zelensky has been up to during his presidency.😉
    2
  1025. Ah, the man who banned opposition parties, media and now a Orthodox church, not to mention is deeply corrupt, becomes man of the year. What a time to be alive.
    2
  1026. Get a new script. It's not 1938.
    2
  1027.  @proselytizingorthodoxpente8304  But he does? He is exploiting that blunder in the Donbass.
    2
  1028. Two and a half years too late.
    2
  1029.  @proselytizingorthodoxpente8304  Yes. Take a look how big Russia is and tell me how that is somehow a big deal.
    2
  1030.  @proselytizingorthodoxpente8304  When you can barely make out the incursion on a map of Russia you know it's not a big deal.
    2
  1031.  @nigelgarrett7970  Yes.
    2
  1032.  @StewartKidGriffin  By overthrowing the government in Kiev, which then decided to discriminate against Russian speakers.
    2
  1033.  @AshurbanipalSonofAshurhaddon  So? Haven't exactly worked wonders so far.
    2
  1034. We are living in interesting times now that political assassinations of major figures are back on the menu. God help us all.
    2
  1035. Hopefully they'll spend it wisely. After Scholz we need to save our industries.
    2
  1036.  @l.t.868  That doesn't make any sense.
    2
  1037. Of course they do. Did anyone expect otherwise?
    2
  1038. Do these operations consist of relatives of the children getting in touch with Russian officials?
    2
  1039.  @amotriuc  Neither, just someone with two eyes, two ears and a brain in between.
    2
  1040.  @sanfrancisco89  That's the good copium you have there.
    2
  1041.  @James-9999  They didn't tie, Germany knocked Russia out of the war.
    2
  1042. Haha, and now please the approval rating that matters, the domestic Russian one.😂
    2
  1043. No, that's why Nord Stream was built.
    2
  1044. So many shovels.
    2
  1045. Scars from over a whole century ago.
    2
  1046.  @pommesschale5440  So basically you are applauding the deindustrialisation of the country under a to America subservient government.
    2
  1047.  @cravingtuna1561  🤣 What, you actually believe that number?😁
    2
  1048. Ukraine really wants to make things even worse for itself.
    2
  1049.  @josephdigiorgio  I hope I'll remember your comment by the end of the year.
    2
  1050.  @bonnie7898  You keep arguing the same nonsensical point. NATO-expansion is no threat to Russia. It doesn't matter what you think, it only matters what Russia thinks. Turns out they think it's a threat and the US knew that.
    2
  1051.  @patrickquinlan3056  Because in that memo he tells the US government what would provoke Russia into action. Take a guess what the US government then did?
    2
  1052.  @patrickquinlan3056  Ask William Burns, he wrote a memo on the topic in 2008.
    2
  1053. Hopefully never, it would just be another blunder by the Europeans.
    2
  1054. I'm so glad that our European bureaucrats have virtue-signaled our virtues.
    2
  1055.  @foilhat1138  You mean ask Time Magazine on how well it's going for Ukraine at the moment.🙄
    2
  1056.  @9UaYXxB  America is literally doing the same, going to South Korea and other places to raid stockpiles. While our media is admitting that Russia produces more than us in the West combined.🙄
    2
  1057.  @CodeLife_12  What's the goal then Letting off steam? Getting EU-funding for useless projects?
    2
  1058. Why do we have to stand up to China for the Americans in the first place? So they can keep meddling in Taiwan?
    2
  1059.  @FunkySpaceLord  Why should I be?
    2
  1060. Yes, and now Israel is claiming to be a victim.
    2
  1061. This bot is clearly not following the news.
    2
  1062. No, because no one wants to admit that our foreign policy these last three years has been a mistake.
    2
  1063.  @bobeyes3284  No, it's still theft.
    2
  1064. Weird, I still remember how people would rail against a border wall, because it would'nt work.
    2
  1065. @ Bull. The days in which we've been important are long since gone.
    2
  1066. Too many seats for Tories and Labour.
    2
  1067.  @pineapplesoda  The host did it deliberately.
    2
  1068. America gotta warmonger.
    2
  1069. Are the Zelensky begging tours really newsworthy two years into the conflict?
    2
  1070.  @andrewadams6905  Right... the country that enlists 30k volunteers per month is desperately looking for 10k soldiers that do not speak the same language. To take back territory bereft of any strategic value for either side.
    2
  1071.  @Oliver-cv6pv  Yes!
    2
  1072. Too subservient to America.
    2
  1073. No. Germany is too subservient to America, that's the problem.
    2
  1074.  @noahbrooksphoto  I know, and usually they make senseless last stands in urban battles until they flee at the last minute.
    2
  1075. So DW News continues to uncritically parrot what Ukraine is claiming?
    2
  1076. Scholz is looking after the interests of America and nothing more.
    2
  1077.  @JTMaster  How would Ukraine have an accurate overview of the current demographic of Crimea, when Russian census reports from 2014 and 2021 do not bear out your numbers?
    2
  1078.  alloutofbubblegum7271  I guess there was an attack on Vuledhar, so I suppose you are trying to say that the offensive failed, because Russia only took the biggest city targeted and not the side-objectives in different areas. As for your numbers, I'm sorry your wrong. The saints in Ukraine claimed differently. Also nice cope with that war economy comment. The latest goal post our politicians retreated to, after the sanctions utterly failed.
    2
  1079. ​ alloutofbubblegum7271  You mean when they took Soledar and moved on Bakhmut? So before the fall of Bakhmut? Oh, and how exactly did that "fail"? As for the shells, if that were true the EU wouldn't have miserably failed to reach their last set delivery target (only sending 300k instead of a million shells). Same goes for the US, considering even CNN admits that Russia outproduces the USA and Europe by a factor of three.
    2
  1080. Bakhmut fell at the end of May, you had the Wagner mutiny and the Ukrainian offensive started in early June. Where exactly was the space for this major Russian offensive again? As for the ammunition, you are right. Not for the right reasons of course, you think the US has an endless supply it is not releasing, when the truth is that the US production simply can't keep up with demand.
    2
  1081.  alloutofbubblegum7271  How exactly does the build up of extensive fortifications blow a hole in my argument that the Russian army is no longer as badly undermanned as it used to be in 2022? As for Bakhmut, I did write that Russia seems to have waited for the Ukrainian offensive following their victory there, didn't I?
    2
  1082.  alloutofbubblegum7271  If that were true Russia wouldn't have so comprehensively defeated Ukraine's offensive last year or would have paused after taking Avdiivka like they did after Bakhmut (although that was in part to prepare for the offensive in 2023).
    2
  1083.  alloutofbubblegum7271  But they took Kherson? They left due to being understaffed in 2022 and because of the precarious supply situation in the city. They aren't understaffed anymore.
    2
  1084.  alloutofbubblegum7271  By taking it? Seems obvious.
    2
  1085.  @randomguy7175  More like America is willing to sacrifice both Ukraine and Germany on the altar of the almighty MIC.
    2
  1086. Spare us with your boogieman talk.
    2
  1087.  @Ghost-Dna  A sea cucumber is smarter than a rock. but you wouldn't elect it president.
    2
  1088. @Random_Dude42 Sweden and Finland had already joint NATO in training exercises in the past.
    2
  1089.  @thebangkokconnection4080  They approached them for ammunition and were told to get lost.
    2
  1090.  @AmonTheWitch  "Stated". Where, you fearmonger?
    2
  1091.  @Nowherenear-w1d  Crying wolf all day about how the Russians are about to strike towards the English channel.
    2
  1092. You mean ratcheting up the debt for an unsustainable defence budget?
    2
  1093. The Ukraine war mind virus is spreading.
    2
  1094.  @MLM68  I'm certainly smarter than your avatar suggests you are.
    2
  1095.  @mugenmugen9632  What are you talking about? Except for the Bradley you are only producing overpriced junk.
    2
  1096.  @ragesmirk  You mean Iran has the right to self-defence.
    2
  1097. With around the world you probably mean the West where it was organised.
    2
  1098.  @КристинаЙорданова-р8л  The defacto members are now members on paper. Oh gosh, what a difference this makes.🙄
    2
  1099. I see DW News participates in the diversion of focus away from the defeat in Bakhmut to the stunt in Belgorod.
    2
  1100. Wonderful, let's make a huge mistake, just to "rub it" in Putin's face. I'm sure he won't be laughing.🙄
    2
  1101.  @sH-ed5yf  No, because the Swedes and Danes refuse for some reason to release their findings. Not that Germany is particularly worried about pressing them for it. For some reason.
    2
  1102. Probably, but may he lose regardless.
    2
  1103. So basically: we don't like the result, so like always when politicians and journalists have to explain their failures and shortcomings all they have to say is "Russia did it". Russia literally controls all our lives, Putin is the most powerful man in the world.😒
    2
  1104.  @adamharlap1934  Our politicians cynically use Germany's past to help America's political goals in the Middle East.
    2
  1105. Why do the people flock to easy solutions to complex problems? Because either the complex solutions haven't been implemented or they haven't worked.
    2
  1106.  @nenadmitrovic3469  Not to mention washing machines!
    2
  1107.  @graemesydney38  He's right, though.
    2
  1108. America and the traffic light coalition is wrong with Germany.
    2
  1109. I'm shocked. I was prepared to write something snarky, but the man actually talked sense.
    2
  1110.  @PlaceHolder-br9pz  Take a look at how Ukraine is recruiting men off the streets and tell me about who is using cannon fodder.
    2
  1111.  @maryanchabursky9148  Oh well, unconditional surrender it is then, just like when those words were first said (in German).
    2
  1112. If I have learnt anything from the Ukraine war it's that this isn't how this works. You don't just call for an immediate ceasefire. You demand an unconditional surrender.
    2
  1113. Sure. “Got caught”.
    2
  1114.  @IonutzPopeskoo  You know that Russia is growing faster than any of the G7 nations and is according to the World Bank now in fourth place regarding its economy measured in PPP?
    2
  1115. Use a diaspora to skew the voting results?
    2
  1116. South Africa is in the right.
    2
  1117. And Germany stands at the side of Israel. Our "value-based" foreign policy right here.🤮
    2
  1118. No one can dethrone the US.
    2
  1119. He should be in prison.
    2
  1120. Hopefully not.
    2
  1121. What for? Won't change anything.
    2
  1122. Maybe they aren't that concerned about the hostages?
    2
  1123. No thanks.
    2
  1124. What strategy? Flailing around because nothing is working?
    2
  1125.  @American-In-Mykolaiv  Oh, tell me what path to a Ukrainian victory you see in that reality of yours. I imagine it's the same as in Vietnam and Afghanistan.🙄
    2
  1126.  @hb9145  Ukraine demanded to implement the points of the agreement out of order and we now know why they did.
    2
  1127. No.
    2
  1128.  @lepetitroquet9410  Well, if you don't want to believe the Ukrainian commander-in-chief, be my guest. You'd rather watch edited videos I suppose.
    2
  1129.  @lepetitroquet9410  You didn't read the lastest interview in the Guardian, did you?
    2
  1130. Seeing as Russia is winning he doesn’t really have much of a choice.
    2
  1131.  @uginv  Which you feel compelled to tell me, this is how much you care.
    2
  1132. Ah, back when we had a number of awesome flags. Anyway, the colonies were a mistake. Nothing but a money sink, not to mention the violence that ultimately just got imported back home (WW1 anyone?).
    2
  1133. Wasting more lives, more time and more money.
    2
  1134.  @jeckjeck3119  You know exactly who I am describing and it's not the Russians.
    2
  1135. Basically Germany has to fork over more money.
    2
  1136.  @JeffPar50  All three are wrong. Getting trapped in a death trap is not a victory, Russia pummels Ukrainian positions daily with glide bombs and the ships weren't mostly sunk.
    2
  1137. Imaging voting for the SPD after three years of Scholz.
    2
  1138. Fantastic, only the Americans are allowed to spy on us! Who needs a modern infrastructure anyway? Looks like this was part of the orders Scholz went to collect in Washington where the coward didn't have to face German media who might have asked about NordStream.
    2
  1139. What Ukraine failed to do with their 1000s of tanks before the war and the Soviet stock from the former Warsaw Pact states they will manage with a hundred Leopards. What a clown world we live in.
    2
  1140. Hope more, perhaps your fantasy scenarios will eventually come true.
    2
  1141. No, because the war is lost.
    2
  1142. What do losers get?
    2
  1143. Yes, and it worsens by the minute.
    2
  1144.  @RPGPlayground  No. No one expected drones to be this important (despite the N-K war). As far as the war is concerned, Russia demonstrated an industrial capacity far outstripping all of NATO.
    2
  1145. Yes. That's what happens when you lose.
    2
  1146. Their own fault for not negotiating in April 2022.
    2
  1147. Yes please. I want Germany to leave NATO.
    2
  1148.  @soundscape26  So?
    2
  1149.  @thegreatdane3627  And yet you treat is as one and want to keep it going.
    2
  1150.  @jacqdanieles  It's also a terrible one that doesn't make a lick of sense. By the way, check the definition of the word analogy. You'll be surprised.
    2
  1151.  @thegreatdane3627  Which higher power does Ukraine have to appeal to?
    2
  1152.  @arthurarthur6083  So he did and you are very proud of yourself.
    2
  1153. In short, we don't try to work towards peace, we just want to steal Russian assets.
    2
  1154.  @BrunoHeggli-zp3nl  Except for the infrastructure.
    2
  1155.  @dammitdan106  Seems like you haven't followed German news then.
    2
  1156.  @MrZekinhaluiz  Well, you are the smart ones. In Germany we have the Baerbocks and Strack-Zimmermanns lusting after escalation.
    2
  1157.  @alfisti93  Not really.
    2
  1158.  @alfisti93  Yes.
    2
  1159.  @arrowodd7695  Sure. You believe Ukraine can win?
    2
  1160.  @CHALETARCADE  You should drink less from the Ukrainian kool aid.
    2
  1161. I'm so conflicted.
    2
  1162.  @therealking6202  Biden is sitting at 40, Trump at 44.
    2
  1163.  @thegreatdane3627 Ah, back to posting after your daily bootlicking for the Americans?
    2
  1164. Yes, thanks to blind obedience to America. So obedient, we are aiding in their hegemonic designs despite them literally blowing up our infrastructure.
    2
  1165. Something, something, trade only with people that share your values, except everyone we don't consider rivals (of our hegemon), something, something.
    2
  1166. It was a lie in 2016, why should we believe it now?
    2
  1167. Good luck holding America responsible.🤭 Anyway, Zelensky never says anything interesting, it's just entitled begging for money and delusional claims of some coming victory in a nebulous future.
    2
  1168.  @Nick-kn6il  Don't forget that you have to shield Israel from the consequences of her actions in Gaza.
    2
  1169. Pretty sure Ukraine would be delighted, after all that might draw NATO into a shooting war.
    2
  1170.  @proselytizingorthodoxpente8304  What are you talking about? Ukraine is getting blasted and they are struggling to keep up with mobilisation.
    2
  1171. How will we do that now that we are deindustrialising?
    2
  1172. What you mean, 60 years? This is over a hundred years in the past.
    2
  1173. Yes. Peace that secures Russian interests.
    2
  1174. How about we don’t?
    2
  1175.  @Amradar123  They did not have a mandate to bomb away, only for a no-fly zone.
    2
  1176. Has probably nothing to do with the increasingly hostile rhetoric from Amercia and the decision to export more weapons to Taiwan. Well whatever, war is coming, we all know that, and the Americans will force Scholz or any other chancellor we might have when it starts to sanction China. 'cause you know, it's not enough to kneecap us only once.
    2
  1177.  @derwolfpack3599  The US didn't do that.
    2
  1178.  @derwolfpack3599  How doesn't it make sense? "If you are not able to fight for your freedom and rights someone else will decide your life." "Like America." As in, America decides your life.
    2
  1179. @militant_pacifist You don't get it. The report specifically said that opinion among those affected was divided. It's not, it's against it.
    2
  1180. Not true.
    2
  1181. Pleyer's assertion regarding how seriously Germany takes its past is straight up hilarious. If we have to do this, then station the Bundeswehr in the former German lands.
    2
  1182. ​@Coma White Any other lofty goal we should be striving to achieve? Perhaps partitioning every country other 100 million citizens?
    2
  1183. Well, it's not surprising, the EU behaves like it is the economic arm of NATO.
    2
  1184.  @2ebarman  As long as we are trapped in NATO we might as well take the small advantages that come with it. As for the rest, please, we are a vassal state of the US and our politicians like it that way. They aren't trying to introduce conscription to improve our negotiation position, they are desperately trying to convince our masters of our usefulness, because they hope to convince them of not completely pivoting to Asia.
    2
  1185.  @2ebarman  I'm pretty sure that we had at least someone talk about it, but no, what for when you have the French, Brits and yanks have them already?
    2
  1186. Historical illiteracy strikes again.
    2
  1187.  @soundscape26  I know, we've been doing it for around 30 years, we are unlikely to stop now.
    2
  1188.  @juamu1132  Yes, but not defeated twice by Russia. Because you know, Germany defeated Russia in WW1.
    2
  1189.  @nenadmitrovic3469  Except they weren't allied and did not have secret agreements with each other on how to split up all of eastern Europe.
    2
  1190.  @MjRadha  Oh, now the USSR did start WW2 with Germany by invading Poland, but suddenly that's okay, because others did things in their past, too?
    2
  1191.  @foilhat1138  You truly live in bizarro world.
    2
  1192. ​ @foilhat1138  In that bizarro world of yours he did, I am sure.
    2
  1193.  @foilhat1138  "Catastrophic" losses. You have still not mentioned where you get that from. Was it the Ukrainian general staff that told you so?
    2
  1194.  @foilhat1138  Of course you have. Let me guess, last year and the year before you laughed about the "cope cages", until the Ukrainians and now the Israelis started using them, too.
    2
  1195. @Mohamad-mi2ti Assuming that this is true, what does it matter?
    2
  1196. Sure they will. This is why the Russian army is now 15% larger than before.
    2
  1197. "We all long for a more peaceful world", but we are not going to do anything to achieve that. Steinmeier is such a despicable person.
    2
  1198.  @thegreatdane3627  Yeah, sure. Naftali Bennett lied about that.🙄
    2
  1199. If you have trouble conscripting more men, just pressgang them into service. The guy in the video has colleagues that already do this.
    2
  1200. It's Joever for the one who sabotaged German infrastructure!
    2
  1201.  @victorbjorklund  Is that your cope?
    2
  1202. Israel lying as usual.
    2
  1203. This is what winning looks like, huh?
    2
  1204. Fico and Orban have some sense left.
    2
  1205.  @babahanuman83  It is when you only do it when it serves your own purpose.
    2
  1206.  @BluemoonSpaceRock  You provoked this, so don't expect gratitude.
    2
  1207.  @6j6666  Are you priding yourself for the number of antiquated targets for hypersonic missiles you have on the seas?
    2
  1208. @ Oh, is that why China's fleet building capacity makes the US look like the US made Japan look like in WW2?
    2
  1209.  @jamesalexander3547  I wouldn't be surprised. There is only one way on the escalation ladder to go and it's leading up up up.
    2
  1210.  @ryanwalters6184  If you've followed the coverage since the start you know that Russia doesn't even understand that one can train its soldiers. Which is of course ridiculous.
    2
  1211. Scholz & co finance the atrocities.
    2
  1212. Has Israel decided to stop the slaughter?
    2
  1213.  @dreamer5234  By nullifying fair elections?
    2
  1214. Denying people their candidate?
    2
  1215. Cut aid to Ukraine and remove yourself to the American led project in the east.
    2
  1216. Please, our energy costs are too high.
    2
  1217. Oh don't worry, the warmongers and terrorists aren't going to stop. The big difference between Democrats and Republicans is that the Reps would want to confront China more than Russia, other than that they are fully on board with keeping up with their instigated proxy-war, except for small hold-outs like that Gaetz character. Trump is threatening Biden's "strategy" (if you can call this fiasco a strategy), not the clowns in the House of Representatives.
    2
  1218.  @karliskokorevics6902  Jesus Christ, you know there was a world before WW2, right? Latvia had been part of Russia for round about 200 years.
    2
  1219. "There are no holes". Sure, buddy, sure. By the way, "Deutsche" Welle, are you ever going to address the NordStream allegations?
    2
  1220.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  Which part of "America stopped Germany from finishing the pipeline, so Russia had to do it" and "when that didn't work they destroyed it and Germany said nothing " have you not understood?
    2
  1221. Well, what is Putin left to strike if we don't rebuild during the war?
    2
  1222.  @Kartoffelsuppe_m_Wursteinlage  Yes, DW is transatlanticist to its core.
    2
  1223.  @icu17siberia  I'm not, just because you are quoting someone from 70 years ago doesn't mean that people after the 90s weren't really happy with the gradual demilitarisation after the collapse of the USSR.
    2
  1224.  @captain_context9991  No, they are afraid of being defeated in the Pacific.
    2
  1225.  @captain_context9991  No, it's scared of losing a war.
    2
  1226.  @captain_context9991  America is scared.
    2
  1227.  @fka-Kaya  Yes, because of the delusional nature of the summit they said that even if they had been invited they wouldn't have come.
    2
  1228. I'm so glad American propagandists like John Spencer are here to tell me how Ukraine is actually winning.
    2
  1229.  Elena  Weird considering Georgia is desperate to become a US vassal, but who am I too judge, I live in one, too, after all.
    2
  1230.  @TRAPONOMICS  So did corruption.
    2
  1231.  @RealConstructor  Neither do we in the West.
    2
  1232. ​ @helios7212  So what you are saying is: they are running out of men, but at least they are getting a new batch of grift money. I guess they can go and buy themselves new soldiers at Aldi or Walmart with that cash. Just be wary, experience and training costs extra.
    2
  1233.  @Blodhelm  Start bragging when America manages to build a hypersonic missile.
    2
  1234.  @alexlazar4738  The part about the resources is incorrect.
    2
  1235. If that were so we wouldn't be stuck in the second unwinnable war this century.
    2
  1236. It never was a bargaining chip.
    2
  1237.  @draculastraphouse7863  You are repeating American talking points, you know that, right? It was Mark Milley who said that, not Putin.
    2
  1238.  @rnedmondson  Ignoring that you are just pulling casualty numbers out of your behind, I'm assuming it's because he is winning and no one wants to acknowledge that by trying to negotiate with him.
    2
  1239.  @thegoat11111  You realise you are just spouting American talking points?
    2
  1240.  @Wolfcamp555  That's weird, North Vietnam won the Vietnam War.
    2
  1241. Another American crime that will never see justice, just like the Nord Stream bombings. At least we are likely going to see some karma coming their way by way of China.
    2
  1242. Then don't work towards a declaration of independence. And dear God, Strack-Zimmermann should not be allowed to open her mouth.
    2
  1243.  @VVV85650  I'm well aware of the subservience of European countries to the American warmongers. Still, America caused this issue, they can pay for it as far as I'm concerned.
    2
  1244.  @carlanderson7618  No, Mark Milley said it would be three days.
    2
  1245. Just censor more and spread your own misinformation, such as that Russia would be running out of everything and that sanctions would halt the Russian war machine. How is that going by the way, you propagandists?
    2
  1246. Don't worry fam, the Russians do human wave attacks all the time despite the enormous artillery advantage they are enjoying. They never learn, despite the Ukrainians "building covers out of their dead bodies". Please keep doing what you've been doing, keep sending trickles of weapons that are never enough, keep squeaking out sanctions that boomerang back, don't talk about peace talks (because that's fascist!), our approach is clearly working. Trust the media and all the American experts they invite on to make you believe the White House! And don't question the Nord Stream bombings. America would have neeeeevvvvveeeeeerr done that. Nope, never.
    2
  1247. Why Ukraine thought making the frontline longer was a good idea I will never understand.
    2
  1248.  @graveperil2169  Well, Israel is.
    2
  1249. The president trying to prevent transparency and democracy. That's what the EU wants to see.👍
    2
  1250. Ben Hodges believes that 97% of Russia's military is in Ukraine. Why do we listen to this clown?
    2
  1251. In Germany we call this "Schmierentheater". A shoddy stage performance bereft of value. Is anyone supposed to be impressed by someone in Kiev letting a siren ring when Biden is there, "proving" his courage?
    2
  1252. America showing its true colours.
    2
  1253. Funny, considering who Biden is supplying with weapons.
    2
  1254. While also financing the destruction of Gaza and the famine therein.
    2
  1255.  @jacqdanieles  Hah, you don't honestly think that Ukraine was in a healthy economic place before the war, do you? Russia was literally working on turning off one of the spigots (the transit fees for Russian gas), which was the main reason the eastern European countries got so up in arms about NordStream. What, you think Zelensky could have looked forward to continued western aid if he had refused to fight?
    2
  1256.  @albertofernandez2490  Don't be so infantile.
    2
  1257.  @WoJackHorseman24  Sure, if you want to believe that.
    2
  1258.  @solconcordia4315  That would take ages to build.
    2
  1259.  @harmless6813  And another one. Sure, sure, will the next thing coming out of your fingers be a statement about how Russia is running out of rockets? ;)
    2
  1260.  @ffffuchs  It's widely acknowledged that Russia has a massive artillery advantage over Ukraine. Unless you buy into the stories of human wave tactics it's not Russia that is suffering humongous losses in Bakhmut.
    2
  1261.  @waynesmith7746  Sure, "damaging", what a load of bull you are shovelling. Ukraine exhausted its reserves in ultimately pointless offensives and Russia conserved its forces by pulling out instead of fighting idiotic last stands as Ukraine did in Mariupol or what we are currently witnessing in Bakhmut (if you subscribe to the naive "Bakhmut isn't valuable" narrative). The truth is that the entire defensive line from Bakhmut to Siversk is in jeopardy if either Soledar or Bakhmut falls. As for the logistic part, that's just false. The question that one has to ask is the number of big road and rail connections and their directions that determine how valuable a piece of land is. Take Ukraine moving into Kherson, how has that improved the logistical position of Ukraine exactly? They are now staring at a natural barrier and get shelled from the other side. This hasn't helped Ukraine in the slightest, because the important goal, that is the cutting off and the destruction of the Russian grouping in Kherson, didn't work out.

  1262. But.. but... tv experts told us that they'd smash their way through to the Sea of Azov in no time flat. The Russians were all incompetents with negative morale who shoot themselves more often than the enemy.😂 I guess that movie trailer of Ukrainians shushing the audience in anticipation of the offensive raised false expectations. This summer blockbuster ended up being a box office bomb.🤷‍♂ (Maybe we should have listened to Mark Milley in the summer of last year when he suggested peace talks.)

  1286.  @thegreatdane3627  Same reason the Central Powers collapsed in WW1 for example. I'm sure you don't understand this, but people don't grow on trees and neither do they come from the supermarket ready to fight. Take a look at Ukraine's demograpy and ask yourself how many young men there are to be soldiers (well, Ukraine is talking about drafting women now, which I'm sure you are going to ignore, not to mention that the average age at the frontline is now past 40), how many people there are to keep some sort of economy going, etc.. That's just the manpower issue. Ammunition is a different problem and no, you do not print shells in the way you print dollar bills. That doesn't work like that and we are already getting articles of shell hunger in Ukraine. Same goes for equipment such as artillery and tanks. You do not wish them into existence. We've also been told about infighting in the leadership of Ukraine, something you probably don't want to hear about, and you probably believe in stories like that one general who was killed just mishandled grenades that he mistook for drinking glasses. Here is the cold truth: Russia has more of everything. Soldiers, equipment, ammuntion, economy, manpower to be drafted, space to trade for time (if they have to), resources, no matter what, they have more. Now do me a favour and explain how you believe Ukraine can win. I'm just dying to hear that since you seem to think that Ukraine can.

    2
  1384.  @SimSimon87  No, in my world I understand that you don't get all of that at the supermarket next door and you don't order all of that at amazon. Especially trained soldiers. The production capacity doesn't exist and won't for years and Ukraine's demographic crisis won't be reversed either.
    2
  1385.  @SimSimon87  In your world all the NATO member states would have to do is to dedicate 10% of their defence budget to Ukraine and then magic would happen and Russia "would have a hard time making progress. If any." Which they don't do for reasons, which of course have nothing to do with the impossibility of the proposal or realities of military production.

  1399. Oh man, I'm bored by these speeches. Just give the whining baby his fighter jets. Perhaps then we can move on to more interesting topics. Like for example long range missles that will for sure be "game changers", this time for realsies. Afterwards either NATO soldiers (in uniform) or nuclear weapons. I'm sure we'll find some "tipping point" eventually and then Ukraine can start winning in earnest. Remember, liberation of Crimea by spring.🙄

It's then when Russia intervened to prevent Crimea from falling into American hands and the people we don't talk about the 24th of February 2022 attempted to ban the Russian language, which led to the conflict in Donbass.

    2
  1453. They left because Ukraine isn't actually as united as we've been told by the media, including you? Some people in Ukraine actually identify as Russian and aren't just mind-controlled drones planted by Moscow? (On a more somber and less angry note, I think this is literally the death-knell for Ukraine as a state. Regardless of how it ends, even in a illusionary Ukraine victory.)

  1460. I believe Ukraine was actually asking for main battle tanks which it is so far not getting (although it's just a question of time, since we like to trickle in military aid). As for the rest, just your usual regurgitated talking points. Protect our way of life! (Putin wants to march on Lisbon apparently) Democracies vs Autocracies! (How about we stop meddling, invading and overthrowing governments?) Putin must be overthrown!

  1471. A potential geopolitical rival? You mean China is the geopolitical rival of our terrorist overlords.
    2
  1472. Yes, it does. Of course DW News didn't care about online censorship by the Biden administration, so you are hypocrites.
    2
  1473. Not gonna lie, this feels like projection. If Ukraine is running out, then surely Russia must be running out, too, right? After all our media has been predicting that since March last year.
    2
  1474.  @JT-on7pf  It's the hope strategy. Just continue and hope that something comes up. It won't and Ukraine would have been well advised to heed Milley's words from autumn of last year (or you know, negotiating in March and April of last year), but it's likely too late for that.

    2
  1492. Ukraine was always going to lose.
    2
  1493. Probably because the USA is trying to starve them into submission by illegally occupying parts of the country, plundering and sanctioning it.

  1494.  @ryanthompson1981  Yes. At the moment.

    2
  1497.  @Kovalainenn  Forcing Ukraine to confront reality and negotiate peace would end the war.
    2
  1498. Do they have enough shells to fire and how well do the barrels hold up?

  1507. I have a feeling that China doesn't care for the ICC.

Even if they managed to install a proper network around the factory, no anti-air system has a 100% success rate. In short, the Russians will destroy that factory, which means that this is yet another useless stunt.
    1
  1530.  @paullakowski2509  Great, another person high on cope. What does that have to do with the topic at hand, as in the tank factory that's just going to be destroyed by a missile?
    1
  1531.  @josteincarlsen2905  I called Zelensky a US-puppet, man. As an aside, I'm not a Nord Stream bomber, meaning that Biden is not my president. That noodle-back Scholz is my chancellor, though.🥲

  1533.  @phoebeli3742  They are ideologically captured and keep us in a neocon (on the right) or neoliberal (on the left) prison. Which probably stems from a lot of money and/or a fundamental belief in America as the "shining city on a hill" (which any serious analysis of US history should disabuse us from, but it's ideological).

  1545.  @jtothed8575  I can tell you don't know what you are talking about. The Brusilov offensive imploded September 1916 and was the last "successful" major Russian offensive of the war on the eastern front, but by no means the last offensive action Russia undertook. It's those failures that led to the February Revolution toppling the Tsar (in March 1917) and to the establishment of two rival governments, one deeply incompetent, the other looking for peace. Lenin takes the train a month later.

Now, if we could also stop being America's lapdogs, that'd be great.

Russia didn't have enough soldiers at the time, something which isn't the case anymore, just think back to last year. Kherson? Russia made the prudent decision to not count on a single bridge for supplies. Does that mean Russia will lose? Nope. Ukraine cannot win.

Do I have to satisfy other language controls, too, because people like Erdogan get pissed off at the exonym for his country? 'cause I don't care if it annoys people that I still call the country "Turkey". As for the convoy, it was an attempt to intimidate the Zelensky government into negotiations, an attempt that nearly succeeded as we know from Ukrainian media, corroborated by the likes of the former Israeli prime minister (only to be scuttled by Boris Johnson). I mean, for some reason they apparently didn't have the fuel to move forward, but to turn back.🤔

The next wonder weapon will surely work. I mean, how many times can the media blatantly lie to our faces?

    1
  1619. So we, and first and foremost the US, are still trying to starve them out I take it? Man, the US must still feel that national humiliation.
    1
  1620.  @albatros12  Man, you must be living under a rock then. Haven't you noticed the panicked articles about Ukraine's need for more soldiers and more funding?
    1
  1621. AfD and BSW didn't attend Zelensky's begging.
    1
  1622. Probably not, but they want to punish the government that is currently in power and is enabling what is happening.
    1
  1623. ​ @bergspot  Why not?
    1
  1624.  @segs3394  Yes, they are trying. They want to keep their ethnic cleansing campaign going and need to draw the US further in.
    1
  1625.  @segs3394  Yes, that's why they bombed Lebanon while they are engaged in ethnic cleansing in Gaza and illegal occupation of Lebanese, Syrian and Palestinian regions.
    1
  1626.  @svetlanachervonnaya7369  That's some backwards logic you have there.
    1
  1627.  @adriennefried5368  Israel is occupying parts of Lebanon.
    1
  1628.  @adriennefried5368  Israel is illegally occupying a part of Lebanon.
    1
  1629. Because our governent is made of a bunch of hypocrites. That's feminist foreign policy for you.
    1
  1630.  @andrewadams6905  Can the person responsible for this bot please take a look at it? It hasn't even noticed yet that I haven't said a single word about a peace deal.
    1
  1631.  @andrewadams6905  Looks like I've broken the Langley bot.
    1
  1632.  @andrewadams6905  I haven't changed the subject. You just refuse to admit that the war in Iraq already did that. You'd rather pretend to be a friend of Ukraine than face reality.
    1
  1633.  @andrewadams6905  And now I'm stuck with you short-circuiting and being left parroting me and your previous comments in an attempt to mimic intelligence.
    1
  1634.  @andrewadams6905  Basically you refuse to admit that there have already been precedents established by America (cause it's okay if borders aren't changed), nor are you aware of the fact this isn't even the first time borders have been violently changed after WW2.
    1
  1635.  @andrewadams6905  Basically you refuse to admit that there have already been precedents established by America (cause killing a million people is okay if borders aren't changed), nor are you aware of the fact this isn't even the first time borders have been violently changed after WW2.
    1
  1636.  @andrewadams6905  It's really obvious that you do not know a bit of world history. So, are you just going to self-righteously repeat that same line or argument?
    1
  1637.  @andrewadams6905  Always with the self-righteousness because America didn't move borders, as if that somehow made things better.
    1
  1638.  @andrewadams6905  Did countries get invaded and destroyed? You people always cloak yourself in the self-righteousness of untouched holy borders (which have been changed multiple times since the end of WW2) as if that somehow makes America's crimes purer.
    1
  1639.  @andrewadams6905  What are you talking about? It's pretty obvious that Iraq has been a precendent.
    1
  1640.  @andrewadams6905  How? Iraq set the precedent that you can just invent stories to invade countries.
    1
  1641. So did Iraq.
    1
  1642.  @Oliver-cv6pv  I mean, I'd question the sovereign part, but you do know that that has already happened to Ukraine, right?
    1
  1643.  @Oliver-cv6pv  Yes^2.🤭
    1
  1644.  @andrewadams6905  I mean, considering the latest news, are you sure about that?
    1
  1645. You mean the one that is losing to Russia?
    1
  1646.  @pauldench1299  There is enough of them in the country.
    1
  1647. No lies found here.
    1
  1648. Maybe because the narrative we've been subjected to is wrong and has always been wrong? Russia is winning, that's why Trump is making concessions.
    1
  1649.  @TriggaTrey361  See, it's the people who believed these lies that are the most shocked by what was obvious since 2022.
    1
  1650.  @KayAteChef  Right, because we would have to deter the Danes.
    1
  1651.  @KayAteChef  Right, because we have to deter the Danes from invading.
    1
  1652.  @LeutnantJoker  To keep it simple just for you, Ukraine started the war with upwards of 1000 tanks. It has already been receiving Soviet tanks from the former Warsaw Pact states. Given Ukrainian desperation we can assume that those were not only not enough, but have already been destroyed in large quantities. Small wonder, considering Russia's massive artillery advantage. We have also witnessed the NATO states furiously fighting among themselves to find more tanks for Russia to destroy and they came up with what, 100 to 200 tanks of various models? Maybe 300? There is no reason to believe that these new tanks will perform any better than the tanks the West has already been sending. After all Ukraine hasn't been properly trained on them, the logistics are a nightmare, because they will have to be repaired in Poland, and tanks are meant for combined arms warfare, which Ukraine cannot utilise as it lacks the means. Not to mention the large fortified lines that the Russians have prepared in the case of more offensives. So yeah, good luck with the tanks, it's only delaying the inevitable.
    1
  1653. Konstantin Eggert doesn't seem to grasp the military reality in Ukraine if he honestly thinks that the tanks in "meaningful numbers" can change the war.
    1
  1654. If only.
    1
  1655. Fits right in with the rest of the EU politicians.
    1
  1656.  @togood604 You really want to go nuclear, huh?
    1
  1657.  @Jana-se4kv  Yeah, throw that buzzword around as if it actually meant something to hide OP's hypocracy.
    1
  1658. Still two years to go until the war begins.🙃
    1
  1659. Wonderful. The preparations for war resume unabated. We have to keep the 2025 deadline after all.🙄
    1
  1660.  @JTMaster  "Fact". Ukraine claims these numbers.
    1
  1661.  @JTMaster  You can tell from all the large scale uprisings in Crimea since 2014.🙄
    1
  1662.  @aaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa  What did I lose?
    1
  1663. Wonderful, more dependencies on the Nord Stream terrorists. At least we'll be somewhat safer from American attacks by 2030.🙄
    1
  1664.  @ShadowPhoenixMaximus  You NATO bots are already warming up, huh?
    1
  1665. NATO and the EU.
    1
  1666. Otherwise what?
    1
  1667. Sure, Israel besieging Gaza had nothing to do with it.
    1
  1668.  @richarddawkins4607  Sure, Israel gets to besiege and occupy people and then when the occupied and besieged hit back Israel gets to call foul.
    1
  1669. Nah, Israel is doing that.
    1
  1670.  @stennan  And just so we are clear, under Biden the world got more dangerous with Ukraine, Gaza and the Red Sea.
    1
  1671. With how much DW and the rest of the German media push the woman you could be excused for believing that we in Germany can actually vote for her.
    1
  1672.  @hiz24airness  Ironic coming from Kamala who hasn't done anything and will continue to do nothing.
    1
  1673.  @hiz24airness  Ironic coming from Kamala, who didn't do a damn thing and won't do a damn thing after the election, regardless of how it'll turn out.
    1
  1674.  @ronaldwilson9525  I guess you have never listened to an unscripted Kamala then.
    1
  1675.  @ronaldwilson9525  Obviously you have never listened to Kamala unscripted. She tries so desperately to sound profound, only to fall flat on her face every time.

  1677.  @antoniopinto1579  You should drink less from the kool-aid.
    1
  1678.  @soundscape26  It's an American election. Hyperbole is the only language that is currently spoken.
    1
  1679. Hopefully not. We can do without the millstone the US will want to drop on us.
    1
  1680.  @paris7cy1  Our interest is not to be shackled to a corpse.
    1
  1681. Wonderful that we continue to fuel this war, instead of looking for a solution. Hats off for our moralists in the government that somehow manage to be both warmongers and "Gutmenschen". Oh, and close down Ramstein Air Base and send the war criminals home!
    1
  1682.  @dark_master_Makei  I'm sorry, I'm not getting it.
    1
  1683. I'm going to believe the state that lies as often as it breathes. So yes, it was absolutely a spy balloon and the US isn't trying to prepare us for a war in the Pacific.
    1
  1684. Yeah, but we sent Boris Johnson to prevent an end to the war.
    1
  1685. He's capable of none of that.
    1
  1686.  @dharmoslap  Well, if doesn't get tiresome then here is to another two and a half years of hoping.
    1
  1687.  @dharmoslap  Hopefully. It's getting tiresome of repeating that for two and a half years.
    1
  1688.  @dharmoslap  Any day now.
    1
  1689.  @dharmoslap  Any day now.
    1
  1690.  @dharmoslap  Sure. It'll happen any day now.
    1
  1691. Western money prolonged the war. Boris Johnson prolonged the war.
    1
  1692. No thanks.
    1
  1693. Thank God that NATO expansion has led to this.
    1
  1694.  @diasflac0g  Him and Petreaus.
    1
  1695.  @Sweet-Rat-Milk  It doesn't. An unsustainable budget is just going to crash our economies more than they are already crashing.
    1
  1696.  @Sweet-Rat-Milk  Oh sure, an unsustainable dfence budget is going to to allow Europe to take its sovereignty back from America.
    1
  1697.  @wieslawmaciag2142  I don't speak Russian, so no. That said, one doesn't need Russian tv to come to this conclusion, one just has to take stock of the progressively more pessimistic articles coming out.
    1
  1698. Same as Biden's the moment she has won the election.
    1
  1699. Oh wonderful, overpriced American junk. I'm so happy Germany is wasting money on this kind of garbage, developed by the Nord Stream terrorists.
    1
  1700.  @Outlier999  It sure does.
    1
  1701. Let me guess, the world opinion scared the bejesus out of the Nord Stream terrorists and now they are scambling to get a pause going.
    1
  1702. It can't win with support, so the answer to the question on the thumbnail should be obvious.
    1
  1703.  @Wolfvain-qs5su  You caused this.
    1
  1704. We should start talks with Russia first.
    1
  1705.  @Blanka1100  What about Cuba? And no, America is absolutely behind the coup.
    1
  1706.  @Blanka1100  America when it overthrew the government.
    1
  1707. Acknowledge reality. It'll make you sound smarter.
    1
  1708. Are we invading Iraq again? Can't the neocons come up with new slogans?
    1
  1709. What a cope.🤣
    1
  1710. Oh great, the gaslighting for America's benefit continues.
    1
  1711. Well, at least she is a pretty face.
    1
  1712.  @Kodakcompactdisc  Right, because why would Germany want to build more infrastructure. The evil Chinese could expand their evil influence within Germany and only our overlords in the US are allowed to do that. Sadly those bastards are in the business of destroying German infrastructure.
    1
  1713. If only Germany could be part of the Belt and Road initiative.😔 PS: Forgot that Hamburg (and I believe Bremen) are part of it, I just wish for a lot more investment in infrastructure, for example in highspeed-trains.
    1
  1714.  @nenasiek  Well, I guess I'm going to have to mail you a copy of my passport then.😂 Don't worry, I'm a German citizen and I'm really not happy about paying a mark up to the Indians for Russian energy (because if you honestly think we've stopped buying Russian energy you are a dimwit. We are just doing it through middlemen now.)
    1
  1715. Kinda wish the Americans hadn't blown up our pipelines. Would have loved to see Germany keep its cheap and stable energy supply.
    1
  1716. Remember when the Iraqis where fighting for our values when the USA broke international law? Well, this corrupt politician certainly doesn't.
    1
  1717.  @cloudpoint0  Of course, of course. Major losses of the Russians, the Ukrainians could have delayed indefinitely, we didn't see articles in the West telling us (and the Ukrainians) that they had everything they needed, now get to it.
    1
  1718.  @cloudpoint0  Of course, of course. There was no pressure on Ukraine to launch an offensive.
    1
  1719.  @cloudpoint0  Of course, of course.🙄
    1
  1720.  @SimonPaterson-b5c  He tries to convince the western publics and their politicians to send more and more equipment, because "just look at how Ukraine is doing". They have only burnt through their pre-2022 army, the Soviet stock of Eastern Europe and are now in the process of burning through NATO equipment. Of course oafs like Olaf Scholz fall for it, although to be "fair", he also had to be tricked by the US into sending Leopard 2 tanks, while the Abrams stay home and don't get destroyed.
    1
  1721.  @SimonPaterson-b5c  I'm talking about the overall approach as seen in places such as Bakhmut. As for the forces committed, where exactly did you get those numbers from? 70% of what has been committed, the regular Russian army, the forces arrayed in that part of Ukraine, the population of Russia?
    1
  1722.  @JeffEbe-te2xs  What's your point here?
    1
  1723.  @appletree6741  You mean the apartheid state?
    1
  1724.  @appletree6741  Shouldn't Iran fight the nation that wants Iran's destruction?
    1
  1725.  @appletree6741  Considering Israel is an apartheid state that is illegally occupying multiple regions? Besides, shouldn't Iran fight the nation that wants Iran's destruction?
    1
  1726.  @appletree6741  You mean during the time Israel bombed sovereign nations whenever it pleased them?
    1
  1727.  @BrancoJanko  Yes, because the US would never ever tell Israel no.
    1
  1728. Our American masters want it so.
    1
  1729. Since when are we a great power? Our overlords in the White House can blow up our infrastructure and the cowards in the government don't even raise hollow protest.
    1
  1730.  @joshuauriarte452  Oh yeah, the invisible North Korean supersoldiers, the justification for this step.
    1
  1731.  @arcades4243  No, there was a point to it, which was stopping the NATO-isation of the country.
    1
  1732. America broke it first when they decided to ignore Ukrainian sovereignty as they plotted to overthrow the government in Kiev.
    1
  1733. Israel Must be condemned.
    1
  1734. We could have had peace in 2022, but Joe and Boris had different ideas.
    1
  1735. Theft has now been legalised.
    1
  1736.  @lost5587  Well yeah, Ukraine should consider that, because the current stance of "we will 'negotiate' only after Russia's unconditional surrender" is so removed from reality the people in Brussels and Kiev must have had taken the yearly Afghan production of drugs to come to that position.
    1
  1737.  @mikkybozzy-my2vk  I'm talking from a NATO perspective. Kosovo is just their overgrown Balkan base anyway.
    1
  1738. Ah yes, Russia is running out. They've been telling that since March. Don't worry, if I repeat that someone will die tomorrow everyday, I'll be eventually proven correct.
    1
  1739.  @alhambrabiker1476  "Educate yourself" says the clown that places Kiev's airport in Kharkiv.🤡 Listen, I understand you are trying to propagandise me, but don't bother. You know I'm right and I know what you are all about, seeing as you've brought up Belgorod and a referendum there.
    1
  1740.  @alhambrabiker1476  No? There wasn't some house to house battle. The Russians never reached the actual city. In case you mean the much touted "Kharkiv counter-offensive", again there weren't any actual urban battles, the few Russian troops in the area just fell back. The one case you could make here would by Lyman, but in that case the Russians held the city for a week or two succesfully until they got the order to withdraw to more defensive lines. That isn't urban combat of the likes of Lysychansk and Severodonetsk.
    1
  1741.  @alhambrabiker1476  No urban battles here, either. Try again with something that looks like house to house fighting in an urban environment.
    1
  1742. @Null Pointer What urban battle has been fought there?
    1
  1743.  @cristiangaban960  Yeah sure, which is why this conflict didn't begin in Bukarest 2008.
    1
  1744.  @cristiangaban960  I mean, Ukraine is still not in NATO, so it seems to work out for them.
    1
  1745.  @cristiangaban960  They were basically joint at the hip with NATO anyway.
    1
  1746. What would be the point of sending Taurus anyway? It's not like it could somehow turn the tide.
    1
  1747.  @derwolfpack3599  They are outproducing the entire West in ammunition and drones, you dimwit.
    1
  1748.  @TheTwangKings  🙄 I guess people like you just don't care for human lives.
    1
  1749.  @TheTwangKings  You do remember that we had a missile exchange recently?
    1
  1750. Hopefully it is inevitable.
    1
  1751.  @farsiga2899  You sound pro-Langley.
    1
  1752.  @farsiga2899  Then tell me your perspective?
    1
  1753.  @farsiga2899  It's obvious. If you think it's vague that's on you.
    1
  1754.  @alberte97  Doesn't matter, it's obviously directed against China.
    1
  1755.  @farsiga2899  Just the proof of my seeing eyes.
    1
  1756. Of course the government wants to warmonger in America’s interest.
    1
  1757. The politicians in Ukraine and the West are lying. What else is new?
    1
  1758. They support it, because they believe that they can somehow prevent defeat. They are wrong of course, but that hasn't stopped them so far.
    1
  1759. What they need are peace talks.
    1
  1760. You mean they are scared shitless by the idea of losing a war they provoked.
    1
  1761.  @meh23p  It however followed the Americans into their pig-headed geopolitical adventures.
    1
  1762.  @elmo430o  No, you know exactly what I meant. Israel is simply copying Guernica to beat down any resistance to them. Just like the old guard.
    1
  1763.  @andreskorge1828  Oh please, guilt? Our politicians are just using the Holocaust as an excuse for not caring and being in lockstep with our liege lord in the White House.
    1
  1764. Israel could go for a permanent ceasefire, but they’d rather fight.
    1
  1765.  @koushikdas1992  Moving NATO to Russia's border despite protestations, insisting on building a "missile defence" system against Russia after tearing up missile control treaties, sponsoring colour revolutions on Russia's periphery and not taking the hint and supplying Ukraine with weapons while making sure Ukraine does not fulfill Minsk 2.
    1
  1766.  @randomchannel-px6ho  Isreal is an apartheid state.
    1
  1767. Isreal is not Europe, it should not participate.
    1
  1768.  @rogerwilco5918  That they shouldn't throw the lives of the men away for pointless adventures.
    1
  1769. Seriously? Haven't they learnt anything?
    1
  1770. What exactly makes China a "systemic rival"? Are we afraid that China will start exporting her government system at the bayonet's tip and with freedom bombs in the way the West is doing it?
    1
  1771. Ukraine attacking into Russia would be even dumber than moving against Zaporizhzhia, but I can't say that I would be surprised. Winning through headlines in Western media seems to be the modus operandi.
    1
  1772.  @reddix435  Why, because I'm pointing out the obvious: that what the media and the experts they are inviting are trying to push on us is silly and demonstrably untrue? The claim that Russia is running out of literally everything you need to conduct a war is roughly three weeks younger than the war itself. Hasn't happened yet.
    1
  1773.  @reddix435  They seem to have enough brain to continue manufacturing missles and drones despite our nine... ten? Oh whatever, who is counting anymore, rounds of sanctions.
    1
  1774. We will surely sanction them now, just like we always take a principled stance on American foreign policy?😜
    1
  1775.  @archyarchfiendx2938 No, it's Israel.
    1
  1776.  @3limabean  That's your response to Russia outproducing all of NATO?
    1
  1777.  @3limabean  Great, now you watch them fail to match Russia's production.
    1
  1778.  @3limabean  Great, I'm sure that in your parallel universe you might have a chance to win.
    1
  1779. I'm deeply shocked that China isn't demanding an unconditional surrender from Russia the way the West is doing as a precondition for "peace talks".
    1
  1780. Yes. Biden was a catastrophe.
    1
  1781. Terrible. In no small part because of Biden.
    1
  1782.  @DestroyHate.  The Israelis are Europeans and Americans, why are they there????
    1
  1783.  @kolle128  They don't want to move away from their maximalist demands because they know that what Stoltenberg is saying is true. When Russia wins in Ukraine she will have defeated NATO and humiliated the West. This coming a year and a half after the humiliation in Afghanistan (where we proved that Russia is better at nation-building than we are) is something they don't want to stomach.
    1
  1784.  @peterzimmerman1114  My hopes are one thing, my foreboding that this war will come is something else.
    1
  1785.  @Cha-jq2po  Because they are not European.
    1
  1786.  @1972Ray  No. China will make sure of that.
    1
  1787. Big surprise. We are a country that doesn’t even react when someone sabotages our infrastructure.
    1
  1788. Can someone please gag this woman?
    1
  1789. Well, doesn’t look great in Lebanon. How is Israel fairing on the other fronts?
    1
  1790.  @bonnie7898  Can't you lie a bit more convincingly? Russia is literally outproducing the West by a factor of around three and outgunning Ukraine in artillery by a factor of somewhere between 5 and 7.
    1
  1791.  @bonnie7898  I know, which is why Zelensky recently said that Ukraine couldn't go on like this for years.
    1
  1792.  @bonnie7898  Oh yeah, to watch videos about how Russia's economy is collapsing while it's simultaneously growing. This week the World Bank bumped up Russia to a high income country. Truly, the Ruble collapsed like five months ago as per Joe Blogs.
    1
  1793.  @thegreatdane3627  Wonderful, it's time for projection again.
    1
  1794.  @thegreatdane3627  Yeah, with all those volunteers per month, right?
    1
  1795.  @gikigill788  Right... it's Russia using cannon fodder.
    1
  1796.  @WorldIsWierd  What, you mean the USA isn't dumb? I feel like they are. Besides, not only has Russia's role as a supplier grown by a lot, you can expect Saudi-Arabia and Iran to not take that lying down.
    1
  1797.  @Paul-yh8km  Sure, then explain how Ukraine can win. I'm listening.
    1
  1798.  @Omega0850  Oooor, because it is another step on the escalation ladder. Unless Ukrainians have been trained in secret already, there will be even more NATO boots in Ukraine than there are already, meaning that NATO is ever so slowly creeping into the conflict as a direct participant (which they'll of course deny until their dying breaths and until the NATO personal actually wears NATO uniforms).
    1
  1799. It will have the same impact as the Soviet stock of the former Warsaw Pact states. They'll be destroyed in offensives that exhaust Ukraine and we'll be back to scrounging up more scraps.
    1
  1800. Still believing in Russiagate?
    1
  1801.  @squireson  Which is a problem because you don't agree with him?
    1
  1802. Do you get mad because he doesn’t agree with you?
    1
  1803.  @IonutzPopeskoo  It didn't do that in the first presidency.
    1
  1804.  @IonutzPopeskoo  The one in which they defeat NATO?
    1
  1805.  @IonutzPopeskoo  ...sure, will collapse. We've been promised that since June 2022.
    1
  1806.  @IonutzPopeskoo  What does that even mean?
    1
  1807.  @IonutzPopeskoo  Lol, hopium.
    1
  1808. Exploit a diaspora?
    1
  1809. Used the diaspora to get the result they wanted.
    1
  1810. Because we subordinated ourselves to America.
    1
  1811.  @zeitgeist5134  Ukrane is already blackmailing Hungary and Slovakia today.
    1
  1812.  @zeitgeist5134  Can you guarantee that Ukraine wouldn't blackmail the other states like it stole gas in the 00s and is currently blackmailing Hungary and Slovakia? In case they actually win their unwinnable war of course.
    1
  1813.  @zeitgeist5134  Please, Russia produces more grain than Ukraine does.
    1
  1814. America has its claws deep in our country.
    1
  1815. 🤣
    1
  1816.  @TheTwangKings  Then why is he winning?
    1
  1817.  @TheTwangKings  No, Scholz. Always has been.
    1
  1818. He shouldn't have supported it in the first place.
    1
  1819. "As long as it takes."
    1
  1820. Just a few more years, according to American officials it'll probably start in 2025.
    1
  1821. What good does stretching itself even thinner do for Ukraine?
    1
  1822.  @anthonymanderson7671  Please, you don't criticise people, you smear them for not sharing your opinion.
    1
  1823.  @anthonymanderson7671  You don't criticise "kremlin bots", you merely smear people of differing opinions.
    1
  1824.  @bonnie7898 What? It's true.
    1
  1825. Has anyone actually proved that it was a spy balloon yet? Anyway, what's behind the growing tensions is the Thucycides' Trap.
    1
  1826. Can't wait to pay for rebuilding the country and paying another "Solidaritätsbeitrag" for keeping the lights on in Ukraine after it lost its main industrial and agricultural regions.
    1
  1827. I know. We were promised Russia would be on its knees by June last year, with the sanctions crippling them... except that never happened and the goalpost got moved back again and again.
    1
  1828.  @jacobrandall4891  So? 43 people can be wrong.
    1
  1829. You mean that for once he challenged an American "expert" on American idiocy?
    1
  1830. You think this will cower them? They have been bombed with American bombs for years, this won't change anything.
    1
  1831. Since the "expert" in question is American his opinion isn't worth that much anyway, as DW News just loves to bring neocons and transatlanticist propagandists on their shows.
    1
  1832. We could stop the ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
    1
  1833. Yes, he wanted to know what step two would be and since Americans can't walk and chew gum at the same time this was most likely never discussed in the White House.
    1
  1834.  @sp7873  No. It lacks the manpower.
    1
  1835.  @LeonCutajar  I'd like the country to improve.
    1
  1836.  @LeonCutajar  How would cutting ties with the US result in becoming a cultural basket case?
    1
  1837.  @maxidal6927  Yeah, surel. Biden is sabotaging Trump, that much is obvious.
    1
  1838.  @walther2492  CNN reported that US intelligence said so. You mean the same people that claimed that Trump colluded with the Russians? Those guys?
    1
  1839. Oh, well if CNN says it it must be so. /s
    1
  1840. Of course, no matter whether you start a war or not, you lose.
    1
  1841.  @American-In-Mykolaiv  More embarrassing evasion.
    1
  1842.  @American-In-Mykolaiv  You are distracting in the most pathetic way possible. What's Ukraine's path to victory in that "reality" you are allegedly living in?
    1
  1843.  @boink800  You mean after the US overthrew the government of Ukraine?
    1
  1844. Oh, I'm going to miss the reparation demands, if PiS falls from power. Anyway, I assume nothing is going to change regarding Ukraine, it might even get worse.
    1
  1845.  @hb9145  Ukraine demanded to implement the agreement out of order, which as we now know was a trick to buy time.
    1
  1846.  @hb9145  Yes, because Ukraine demanded to implement the points of the agreement out of order, a ruse to buy time as we now know.
    1
  1847. It's your proxy war.
    1
  1848. Israel already had one.
    1
  1849. They can’t.
    1
  1850. They are also looking to banning the Russian Orthodox Church because who needs religious freedom in a "vibrant democracy".
    1
  1851. This implies leverage over Russia. Leverage the US doesn’t have after blowing its load.
    1
  1852.  @231rosslyn  They are winning the war. What did you think I meant, a football match?
    1
  1853.  @lepetitroquet9410  The reason I believe him on that account is that the pace of Russian advances has increased notably.
    1
  1854.  @lepetitroquet9410  No, I believe him because the Russians keep taking territory faster than before.
    1
  1855.  @lepetitroquet9410  He is saying that the Russian army keeps growing larger, which is supported by the fact that the Ukrainians keep losing territory faster. Where are those losses and why can't Mediazona corroborate?
    1
  1856.  @lepetitroquet9410  He is saying that the Russian army keeps growing bigger, which is supported by how the Ukrainians are losing territory faster. All those losses they supposedly take haven't put a dent there. Losses that aren't corroborated by the likes of Mediazona.

  1857.  @lepetitroquet9410  He is saying that the Russian army keeps growing larger, which is supported by the fact that the Ukrainians keep losing territory faster. All those losses they supposedly take haven't put a dent there. Losses that aren't corroborated by the likes of Mediazona.

  1858.  @lepetitroquet9410  Syrski is of a different opinion. Read his new interview in the Guardian.

  1859.  @lepetitroquet9410  Read the newest interview with Sikorsky
    1
  1860. Oh great, another member state. The EU is already working so well with 27. By the way, is the EU allowed to take in a member state with on going territorial conflicts? (Also, considering the EU wants its own Foreign Agent Law, proving that the outrage a couple weeks ago coming from the EU were the height of hypocrisy. But what else is new)
    1
  1861.  @uginv  Oh I know, I was commenting on the interest of Deutsche Welle.
    1
  1862.  @hb9145  Interesting question, considering the Americans don't assign any value to Ukrainian lives.
    1
  1863. Germany defeated Russia in WW1. Did you forget?
    1
  1864.  @jeckjeck3119  Of course, of course. It's not NATO with its newest wonder weapon, it's not the West with it's 11th sanction package.
    1
  1865. He's going to lose either way and the Union can always just refuse any cooperation with his minority government, making it impossible for Scholz to do anything.
    1
  1866.  @nxtphone4696  Eh, you'd be surprised how often denazification gets overstated, espcially looking at the mid-level management. As for proper history, in Germany you get taught that Germany was not solely responsible for WW1 and that the origins of it is far more complicated than that.
    1
  1867.  @kukulroukul4698  Ignoring the warships that states like UK possess, there are more ways to get involved in these kind of conflicts. Your lack of imagination is showing.

  1868.  @RAL0981  You are a fool if you honestly think the USA is going to sit out a clash with China.
    1
  1869.  @TheRealBlueValhalla  There must be something wrong with your keyboard, but thankfully my reading comprehension isn't as atrocious as yours: The Russians have been removing orphans/suspected orphans from the war zone. Those criminals, they have even released some of the children after their parents turned up again. The Russians don't allow unsupervised children to remain under shelling! o.O Th ose mon ster s! 👺

  1875. Considering America is responsible for the biggest act of sabotage? Doubtful.
    1
  1876.  @Dani-mw2ws  I made contact with people from a parallel universe. I gotta notify the press!
    1
  1877. Probably, in no small parts thanks to a braindead and in some ways shizophrenic energy policy that's been going on for years. Germany subordinating its economic interests to America's geopolitical goals and Biden blowing up the Nord Stream pipelines are just nails for the coffin.
    1
  1878.  @ahmedvawda1282  Great that we are in agreement then.
    1
  1879. Because Russians have lived in the area for longer than the state of Latvia existed?
    1
  1880. Wonderful, just wonderful. Instead of reading the writing on the wall, we try for more escalation.🙄
    1
  1881. I have vertigo from all the spin.

  1884. Always were. 'shoots the astronaut from behind'
    1
  1885.  @j.erickson8571  Of course I can blame them for rolling over to the dictate of the Nord Stream bombers.
    1
  1886.  @lepetitroquet9410  Then fess up, what could be done?
    1
  1887.  @lepetitroquet9410  "Many Republicans are trying to resist it" is about as convincing as the letter from the Democrats calling for diplomacy that got retracted within a few hours to a day (and I remember you claiming that diplomacy was one of the reasons for why the US "is holding back"). As far as political will goes, the US is right now shooting the status of the dollar as the reserve currency in the kneecaps and you are pretending that they aren't "all in" because of political will. Your argument that the US could push more money is ridiculous. What would they do with "more"? The US is already paying the salaries for the soldiers, so should it pay them higher wages? How about ordering even more weapons when the last orders haven't even been produced yet? Why not transfer more Patriot systems, despite there not being enough rockets and production to serve all commitments world wide? I don't need to pretend anything, by the way. I recognise the pattern that every couple of months we are talking about more "Wunderwaffen" that'll surely be game-changers and turning points. Well, the points have been turned and changes have been gamed and for some reason the beggars keep coming back.
    1
  1888.  @lepetitroquet9410  So nebulous political will and non-existant diplomacy is your explanation for why the "Arsenal of Democracy" didn't kick in? The political will to raid the emergency stockpiles in Israel is there, but not to expand capacities in the states, despite how easy it would be to outproduce Russia? Over a 100 billion dollars have already been allocated for Ukraine with barely any resistance in the US to speak of and you are saying the will isn't there. I'm going to file that under "unlikely". As for the stocks, sure, there is enough to drag this war out and destroy Ukraine even more thoroughly. We'll just figure out the training on these systems, their supply chains, the maintanance, we'll just kitbash an army together again and again on the fly. For good measure each round of new shipments will be called game-changers and turning points. After all, if you repeat something often enough it'll eventually come true and we are only at our second new army for Ukraine.
    1
  1889.  @lepetitroquet9410  Yeah sure, if the West could actually "easily" do that it would have already done so. After all, why didn't we do that to mend the artillery advantage that Russia is enjoying if it were so easy? These processes take years to decades. We are just coming out of at least twenty years of atrophying Western militaries that were used for unsuccessful expeditions against Middle Easterners. Factories need to be expanded, supply chains created, workers need to be hired, financing must be brought into order, etc. You don't just flip a switch. And even if we managed to do all that, tanks are meant for combined arms combat. And Ukraine has an already mentioned disadvantage in artillery and literally everything else aside from manpower.
    1
  1890.  @cameron6770  I can see you understand the world if you think the West can just do a large-scale military procurement for Ukraine. The United States can't even keep up with Ukraine's ammunition demands and has to first build up capacities. That's going to take years, if they can even do that with their already bloated military budget.
    1
  1891.  @lepetitroquet9410  No, I mean Ukrainian officials begging for more tanks after already receiving tanks and having started the war with one of the biggest tank fleets in Europe is a sign they are losing. One could suspect that they are running out of them for some reason.
    1
  1892.  @lepetitroquet9410  "Victorious Ukrainian dynamic". Yeah sure, this is why the past couple of weeks we've witnessed NATO leaders running around like headless chicken, trying to find more weapons to throw at Russia's artillery.
    1
  1893.  @thegreatdane3627  You are insane.
    1
  1894.  @MrDosonhai  They planned to during the crisis and actually did so before the crisis.
    1
  1895. Bla bla bla, keep up your hopes, pretend like cutting down training for Ukrainians is a good idea, don't question the continuous funding of a proxy war we are losing, bla bla ba.

  1896.  @ilfyf  "Everyone that doesn't share my inhumane beliefs is a bot."

  1898.  @waynedrummond6583  Earth. I assume you live in ISW-land?
    1
  1899. The war is already a win for Russia, so it follows that the deal would be, too (and Russia already rejected it because it's not good enough).
    1
  1900. They didn't have an arsenal.
    1
  1901. It never had nuclear weapons.
    1
  1902. Which nuclear wpeaons? The ones that never belonged to it?
    1
  1903.  @mirolubos  Oh, wonderful. America lost the war of 1812, so Greenland actually stands a chance to win a war against the USA. That's your logic?
    1
  1904.  @mirolubos  Was sollte ich lesen, um mich vom Unmöglichen zu überzeugen? And just to be clear, my last post was clear and concise, don't pretend otherwise.
    1
  1905.  @mirolubos  And what, oh wise one, could I possibly read to convince me of the impossible?
    1
  1906. And who's going to punish them?
    1
  1907. Yes, since they are winning.
    1
  1908. That not how you spell the perpetually at war USA.
    1
  1909. America wants to be boss everywhere. That includes inside Russia.

  1910. The one way to save Ukraine.
    1
  1911. So? America calls the shots.
    1
  1912. Yes, when you lose, you surrender.

  1913.  @RPGPlayground  😂
    1
  1914.  @PawesomeCatVideo  He didn't.
    1
  1915. Yeah, almost as if Russia is winning the war.
    1
  1916. Yeah, that was always how it was going to end.
    1
  1917. Yes. When you lose you surrender.
    1
  1918. Well, when you lose you capitulate.
    1
  1919.  @matthewmarkus2495  The reason for that is that there isn't anything to rebuke. You've been wrong and I told you why, you just double down on the same point anyway.
    1
  1920.  @matthewmarkus2495  So you didn't just fail history classes, Matthew Markus, but reading comprehension, too. Well, I suppose those two would be somewhat correlated.
    1
  1921.  @matthewmarkus2495  Besides, America spent the last 30 years demonstrating the principle of "might makes right".
    1
  1922.  @matthewmarkus2495  Oh shut it. It's painfully obvious that you don't know anything about the Munich Agreement. Again, we actually fought a war. We lost the war. That is not comparable to 1938.
    1
  1923.  @matthewmarkus2495  Yeah, yeah, a typical talking point. Back here in reality there has been a war and our side has been defeated.
    1
  1924. Which is what Ukraine needs.
    1
  1925. Those were German territories to begin with.😜
    1
  1926.  @jasperchance3382  I know, you obviously haven't had history classes yet.
    1
  1927.  @jasperchance3382  Yes, when they surrendered.

  1928. The EU doesn't have a say.

  1929.  @soundscape26  The SPD has been driving the country into a ditch and the previous two showed how unhappy people are.

  1930.  @iwiwt  I think it's because of tactical voting. Voters tried to prevent a meaningless second symbolic victory of the AfD.
    1
  1931.  @primal1233  Because it will hurt us economically.

  1935.  @jankowalyk7301  At least that's what the trustworthy Ukrainian leadership says.
    1
  1936.  @thegreatdane3627  Actually no, they made a completely orderly withdrawal, unlike America.
    1
  1937.  @thegreatdane3627  Yes, since they will never win.
    1
  1938.  @thegreatdane3627  Yes, they should, because they will never win. Doesn't matter how much NATO gets involved.

  1939.  @arthurarthur6083  Try Europe.

  1940. "Smearing independent organisations" (which are funded from the West).
    1
  1941. This is precisely why last year I thought that Scholz was puffing out hot air when he announced his "Zeitenwende". It was nothing but posturing to please the crowd in the moment. By the way, this isn't a new realisation. Procurement problems have been discussed for years, but the wheels of bureaucracy and corruption turn slowly, no matter what the blowhard tries to sell you. I remember it clearly how precisely this issue was raised during the Trump years when we were being told that Germany would have to insure her own security, because the US couldn't be trusted under Trump. (Oh the irony, seeing as it was under Biden that the US actually attacked our energy infrastructure) Frankly, it's also not just procurement. The Ukraine war has blatantly demonstrated that industrial warfare didn't vanish into the annals of history and that the quantity of weapons and ammunition is crucial. Our defence industry is completely incapable of delivering the goods Germany would need to defend itself in a peer conflict (not that any is on the horizon, no matter how much the media and politicians try to create the Russian boogieman). Lastly, lol at calling Afghanistan a reconstruction mission. Sure, sure. We constructed a house of cards, not a state.
    1
  1942. About what, that America would provoke a war in Ukraine?
    1
  1943.  @sus10651  No, it did not. Only once, and the Fuhrer wasn't Prussian. WW1 began because Serbia sponsored terrorism in Austria and it was Russia that escalated a Balkan crisis into a European one. Those are your culprits.
    1
  1944. Well, the system is certainly not capable of somehow restarting Ukraine's failed offensive, which has come to an end, even if DW News chose not to cover it. Anyway, more escalation, Ukraine is still not going to win, peace is still just a fantasy , and the country is being destroyed. All is quiet on the eastern front.
    1
  1945. I wish Germany would also take a piss on the USA.
    1
  1946. Oh don't worry, the US will find a way to get aid to their proxy war, after all they are placing a lot of value in American and Russian lives. Just not in Ukrainian lives.
    1
  1947. Russia is regrouping, recruiting and re-equipping? Austin, you dimwit, this has been happening for months now. It's precisely the reason you are all running around like headless chicken right now, trying to throw more good money after bad.
    1
  1948.  @bonnie7898  Oh, stuff it. It's not the first time this century that a power got away with the destruction of a country, so let us not pretend as if some dangerous precedent were being set. Thank the blasted Americans for that.
    1
  1949.  @bonnie7898  More than anything I'm aware that people's education is stumped, so that they literally view everything only through the lense of World War 2, completely incapable of making any other analogue.
    1
  1950. No, but he's sure gonna try.
    1
  1951. Another clown pretending that Ukraine will ever enter NATO.
    1
  1952. @rory kinahan Ui, assuming they'll actually send 300 tanks that's nearly a third of what the Ukraine had at the start of the war. And yes, as you've pointed out, we've already been sending tanks to the Ukraine, Soviet stock that's been running down. In short, the Ukraine isn't gaining anything new.
    1
  1953.  @renovatio1257  Why, do they bomb critical infrastructure in "allied" countries and destabalise their neighbourhood?

  1954.  @alfisti93  Which you know how?
    1
  1955. Shove your Bush-speak up yours.
    1
  1956.  @Shaddarhim  Right, because that is believable. Well, BoJo and Biden will have to live with history forever remembering that they are chiefly responsible for everything that happened since April 2022.
    1
  1957.  @Shaddarhim  Sure. Scuttling peace talks a month into this was escalation, too.
    1
  1958.  @infinitelo_op  You are welcome. At least you agree with me that it would be a pointless measure.

  1959. Mr Sebastian ist wrong. There is nothing the West can do to help Ukraine win.

  1962.  @elysiumfields  I'm sorry, but the party of censorship doesn't get to boohoo cry about Trump.
    1
  1963.  @dennischiu272  Take Biden's comments this week, the Russiagate lie or how Democrats rig primaries.
    1
  1964.  @dennischiu272  I'm not the one who called half the country deplorables, garbage and naughties. Nor did I claim that Hillary lost because of Russia and that Trump had been a puppet. Nor did I rig the Democratic primaries. Lastly, I didn't install a walking corpse as commander in chief.
    1
  1965.  @timonsolus  Oh yes, it does. Take Biden's comments this week, the preposterous lie of the Russian steal in 2016 or how the Democrats rigged their primary and then decided to hand the win to Kamala anyway.
    1
  1966. So calling your opponents garbage and naughties, Russiagate and installing a dementia patient into the highest office, not to mention throwing out the result of a primary (that you already rigged in favour of one candidate).
    1
  1967. Of course the Republican have a faction that supports sending more weapons. The MIC doesn't just donate to the Democrats. By the way, the Leopards are considered a better fit than the Abrams because burnt out husks of Leopards won't embarass the American MIC.
    1
  1968. So basically it's pointless, because the smaller side tries to stretch the larger by stretching itself thin.
    1
  1969. Doubtful. Buchanan and Biden were presidents after all.

  1970.  @therealking6202  One wonders why his approval rating is higher than Bidens then.

  1976.  @masonparr8950  So how is Iran toast then?

  1977. Funny, considering Israel can’t do anything without US help.
    1
  1978. Of course they will. They want war.
    1
  1979. Of course, especially the part where the Russian soldiers told their captives that after the war Russia will use Ukrainians to attack more countries. That's definitely going to happen, source: trust me, bro.

  1980. Yeah, yeah, you and what army?
    1
  1981. Just sanction them some more, that is the one and only response we have to them, because negotiations like under Trump cannot be done. It'll make the US look weak.🙄
    1
  1982. They just can't stop digging.
    1
  1983. No, it should not.
    1
  1984.  @koruptorbesar9141  What's there to enjoy about economic stagnation?
    1
  1985. The peace plan is just a demand for unconditional surrender, meaning there won't be any compromises, meaning there won't be a peace summit in the foreseeable future.
    1
  1986. Actually the Taiwanese president turned the last election into a referendum on her foreign policy. Turned out that the Taiwanese like the status quo and don't want to provoke China by say inviting Nancy Pelosi for no other reason than to piss off the mainland.
    1
  1987. Ultimately nothing. The conflict will go on, the Israeli colonists are still not back in the north.
    1
  1988.  @NoHairMan  Oh, how very old school Athenian of you. Much democracy, much freedom. I am not allowed to criticise my subservient home and the politicians who are all willing bootlickers of the Nord Stream terrorists.
    1
  1989. The US can’t punch Russia. Haven’t we learnt anything in the past three years?
    1
  1990.  @DG-ie5ip  Learn English.
    1
  1991. "Neutralised".
    1
  1992.  @4layers404  Sure they can.
    1
  1993. What's behind the maneuver? NATO is pretending it could actually fight a war like in Ukraine, except we don't have the industrial capacity to keep up with the ammunition demand.
    1
  1994. Still not ready to admit defeat and hold peace talks, huh? Can't say I'm surprised, if there is anything in this world as sure as the sunrise in the morning, it's the spin coming out of DW News and especially the UK. Well, let's stop the watches everyone. "Hopefully" and "at some point over the next few months" the Russians will "suddenly collapse somewhere", just like they were meant to run out of everything, their economy was supposed to implode, civil war was supposed to break out, they were supposed to be isolated, etc. All those lofty goals, always just a couple months away.
    1
  1995. They will stay hostages, duh.
    1
  1996. Just more signs that America's puppet regime is winning.
    1
  1997. And that's our problem because the Nord Stream bombers who are our liege lords make it our problem.
    1
  1998. I'm not too shocked. He's been pretty popular from what one could hear and he's winning the war in Ukraine.
    1
  1999.  @4lyfMotorhead  Standard of living increased like in Ukraine.
    1
  2000.  @Thunder103093  Ignoring that the US engineered a coup in Ukraine to get to this point, just because they want to doesn't mean we should let them. I don't see a reason why Europe should risk its security just so that the Nord Stream bombers can move their military closer to the Russian border.
    1
  2001. Remove the weapons from Germany! Also, lol at the buffer shrinking. Perhaps next time we won't declare that Ukraine and Georgia should join NATO the way we did in 2008?
    1
  2002. I wish we had a unified response to the Taiwan issue, in the sense that it's not our problem and the Nord Stream bombers can push for war on their own there. Of course Baerbock lecturing China is just proving that Germany will be the loyal asskisser of the White House in the coming conflict. Hopefully we get to vote her and the rest of the noodlebacks out of office before war breaks out.
    1
  2003. Another begging tour.
    1
  2004. The newest excuse for why Russia is winning. The North Koreans are coming to fight for them.
    1
  2005.  @eddastrohmayer251  How? Becausee he talked tough when he was in a position where he wouldn't need to put his money where his mouth was?
    1
  2006.  @eddastrohmayer251  He isn't going to be any better, but that doesn't mean I don't want to give Scholz a parting gift.
    1
  2007. NATO isn't capable of keeping up with Russian shell production. That tells you how capable of fighting Russia NATO is. Not that Russia is planning to do so. Anyway, strengthen the Bundeswehr, kick the Americans out of the country and leave NATO.
    1
  2008.  @Solaris0071  Aha. Pray tell, what do you think is the number of civilians killed already?
    1
  2009. Oh gosh, less money for the bloated defence budget and the MIC? Maybe instead of endlessly stringing Ukraine along we might see a more realistic approach to Ukraine's fortunes in the war (and hey, if we keep Boris Johnson tied up in a basement perhaps no one scuttles the next peace talks)? No endless debt accumulation? God, where are the US heading?😂 (Probably still into the same direction it already was, a war in the Pacific against China.)
    1
  2010. No, and we shouldn’t.
    1
  2011.  @bonnie7898  Yeah right, keep telling yourself that. As for the other countries, because expanding wars is almost always a dumb idea, duh? You also ignore that none of these countries actually pose any threat to Russia, except for Poland that only borders Kaliningrad (nice obfuscation there by the way) and that joined in 1999.
    1
  2012.  @Blanka1100  They weren't allowed to do that as they lacked the votes and by doing so they broke the agreement that was struck between all parties, including Russia.
    1
  2013.  @Blanka1100  They weren't allowed to even do that, they didn't have enough votes. And yes, they did so for a reason, and that was the allied interest of America and the nationalists.
    1
  2014.  @Blanka1100  Russia invaded because America removed the government in 2014 to prepare for the enlargement they announced in 2008.
    1
  2015.  @Blanka1100  Yeah, yeah, the madman Putin theory. He invaded because he felt like it, not because America, fully knowing what it was doing, was preparing the groundwork by literally removing the government of Ukraine.
    1
  2016.  @Blanka1100  Russia invaded because of NATO-enlargement, which was announced in 2008.
    1
  2017.  @Blanka1100  Russia did it, because America was blatantly working towards NATO-enlargement into Ukraine.
    1
  2018.  @Blanka1100  Russia did to prevent NATO-enlargement into Ukraine, because America was blatantly working towards it, even couping the government to make it happen.
    1
  2019.  @Blanka1100  None of that has to do with NATO-enlargement causing the war.
    1
  2020.  @Blanka1100  Jesus Christ, what does that have to do with Ukraine, the coup or the war in the east over NATO enlargement?
    1
  2021.  @Blanka1100  When you don't have facts, smear. Don't you have arguments?
    1
  2022.  @Blanka1100  What does the Rand Corporation have to do with RT? Or Joe Biden, Bush jr, Victoria Nuland? John McCain? You don't have actual facts to lean on, so you resort to smearing, but that is typical of people like you.
    1
  2023. ​ @Blanka1100  Right, I'm the one in the matrix, even though I can point to telephone calls, NATO summits, think tank policy plans and American politicans that were installed in Ukraine, while you just repeat the mantra you got from the news.
    1
  2024.  @Blanka1100  We have an intercepted telephone call showing how America planned to form Ukraine's government following the coup. Joe Biden was literally installed there as overseer of the country. We have policy proposals of American think tanks detailing the plan that was carried out. That is the "matrix" I'm living in while you believe in the real world where America is innocent of any wrong doing ever.
    1
  2025.  @Blanka1100  Which is of course why Ukraine fell into civil war after the American backed coup.
    1
  2026.  @Blanka1100  You are delusional, that is plain to see and you refuse to take a look at geopolitical realities. Ukraine got couped by America and Russia understood what that would mean. It is that simple. So stop infantilising the situation with this madman Putin theory you have absorbed by political talking heads.
    1
  2027.  @Blanka1100  You are lying, NATO made it clear in 2008 that Ukraine would join NATO. No ifs about it. As for plans to hurt Russia, read the RAND corporation report on how to extend Russia from 2019. Lastly, don't fool yourself, Russia was no threat until after NATO expanded east.
    1
  2028.  @Blanka1100  Poland (if I am taking the Kaliningrad border seriously) joined before Putin became president and Lithuania is too small to actually house enough military to seriously threaten Russia. Russia still complained about it. Secondly, America sponsors coups and colour revolutions in countries that aren't "NATO-friendly" enough to ensure that they'll join, just take a look at Ukraine. NATO-enlargement is the cause of this war, even Stoltenberg admitted it.
    1
  2029.  @Blanka1100  Eastern Europe's voice is just America's anyway. As for Ukraine, trying to bring them into NATO earlier would have just meant that Russia would have moved in earlier.
    1
  2030.  @stephenhill545  Untrue. They screamed bloody murder every step of the way.
    1
  2031.  @Chris-pf8by  The war in Georgia should be explanation enough, not to mention that NATO is building a missile shield (threatening MAD) that can be quickly converted to offensive weaponry. Which would absolutely be extended into Ukraine. Ignoring that these countries on Russia's borders tend to catch a case of colour revolution before they apply to NATO. Not that it matters, it matters only if Russia feels threatened, not if you think it is.
    1
  2032. Stoltenberg admitted that this war is fought over NATO-expansion, because they couldn't accept that Russia said no.
    1
  2033.  @EliacimRodriguez  The one with the most votes doesn't even get the job of president half the time.

  2034.  @derwolfpack3599  America never gave Germany that, it doesn't even have it at home.

  2035.  @derwolfpack3599  America didn't give Germany democracy. It doesn't even have that at home.
    1
  2036.  @derwolfpack3599  The US didn't give Germany democracy and is currently using the weak politicians in the government to rob Germany blind.

  2038.  @gspiatti249  They destroyed Nord Stream and are overall warmongers.
    1
  2039.  @juliuszkocinski7478  Former ambassador to Germany (until he let it slip that he is a fan of Stepan Bandera)b and current deputy foreign minister Andrij Melnyk wants a submarine from Germany. The request is so ludicrous that I can only hope that he is trolling, but considering all the other demands...
    1
  2040. Probably, but why worry? We can't do anything about it.
    1
  2041.  @m.r4841  What is wrong? Article 5 wasn't used, NATO is a racket, Ukrainian rockets hit Poland and killed two and lastly, yes, America blew up Germany's pipelines.
    1
  2042. What are they even applying for, considering that NATO is a racket? Article 5 wasn't used after Ukrainian rockets hit Poland and America blew up our pipelines.

  2043.  @UltraCasualPenguin  How cute. If I don't share your opinion I should be exiled, huh? Great democratic values you have there.

  2045.  @Deltasquadformingup  After Nord Stream Germany and America aren't allies. Germany is just a vassal state.

  2046. Learn some history, Jesus Christ. Europe was "undefended" in WW1?

  2047. You may correct me, but Xi Jinping has already announced that he would not go to the G20 summit and Putin will not be there, either. So you know, the G20 are falling apart.
    1
  2048. At least they don't call it "balloon-gate". The most powerful country on the planet, everyone. Scared and apopleptic over a balloon. Thank God the US is adding three more military bases in the Philippines to further encircle China. The balloon cannot go unanswered!😒
    1
  2049.  @juamu1132  Yes, I have, but how does that relate to Russia's defeat in WW1?
    1
  2050.  @juamu1132  Never heard of Ostsiedlung, huh?
    1
  2051.  @juamu1132  There has always been slavic blood in east Germans. Take a look at the eastward colonisation during the Middle Ages.

  2053.  @TauNomm  You do that.

  2054.  @foilhat1138  So you cannot hear yourself?
    1
  2055.  @foilhat1138  So you are just listening to the Ukrainians uncritically, despite them even writing on their site that you can't trust their data.
    1
  2056.  @foilhat1138  Reality of what exactly? You just spouting off a variation of the "meat wave" myth straight from WW2 and the Korean War?
    1
  2057.  @foilhat1138  "Confirmed" by who?
    1
  2058.  @foilhat1138  "Cope". You can just watch the videos.
    1
  2059. @Mohamad-mi2ti Then you should ask US general Christopher Cavoli.
    1
  2060. @Mohamad-mi2ti Ok? How does it matter how Russia's army is expanding in size?
    1
  2061.  @foilhat1138  Yes, they are faster and can easily outrun suicide drones.
    1
  2062. A little late for an attack on Gleiwitz, so I'm assuming it was likely an Ukrainian pinprick attack to capture headlines (to distract from Bakhmut).
    1
  2063. Wasn't he part of a money laundering operation between the Democratic Party and Ukraine?
    1
  2064. I suppose congratulations are in order. The US failed to overthrow Assad, now it's official. By the way, the woman forgot to mention the US troops currently occupying parts of Syria.
    1
  2065. So how is that attempt to put Ukraine in a commanding position for upcoming talks going? Well I guess, after all the Russians can now cut energy in half the country whenever they want.

  2069. @militant_pacifist Directive on Transparency of Interest Representation on Behalf of Third Countries. Next time look for it yourself.

  2070. @militant_pacifist It's not been passed yet, it's being discussed and pushed by the likes of von der Leyen.

  2071. Yeah, I don't think Israel cares as much about the hostages as they claim (considering they already killed some themselves).
    1
  2072.  @willhudson5625  Then why compare it to the city of Kurakhove?
    1
  2073.  @victorbjorklund  Yes, did you have trouble understanding my comment? It's written in better English than what you've provided so far. Not sure how much clearer I can be.
    1
  2074.  @willhudson5625  No, but Sudza isn't exactly the city of Kursk, now is it?
    1
  2075.  @victorbjorklund  No, because I am not Russian. Having said that, sending troops to an area bereft of strategic importance isn't the flex you seem to think.
    1
  2076.  @victorbjorklund  Who lost Kursk?
    1
  2077.  @Kartoffelsuppe_m_Wursteinlage  "Word is a word". Yeah sure, just like "Frieden schaffen ohne Waffen". The Greens used to love that slogan. (It means "Creating peace without weapons" by the way. Doesn't rhyme in English)
    1
  2078.  @guydreamr  Yes, like 23 billion go directly to Ukraine, but considering 150 billion haven't turned the tide I don't see what 23 are going to accomplish.
    1
  2079.  @guydreamr  No, to replenish stocks for weapons that have already been sent.
    1
  2080.  @guydreamr  The aid package itself? Like 20 billion alone go to the US military, not to Ukraine.

  2081.  @guydreamr  Nah, most of that stays in the coffers of the MIC.

    1
  2084.  @IsraelMilitaryChannel I did, but what does it prove? No system is 100% effective, not to mention that the Ukrainians are launching attacks from within Russia.
    1
  2085.  @IsraelMilitaryChannel  Yeah, yeah, of course. Next thing you are going to tell me is that Ukraine is winning the war.
    1
  2086.  @vivavideo-videofilmer  Aha, und Russland bedroht uns wie?

  2087. @plazthalt Na dann bin ich aber beruhight. Ich kann dir also getrost sagen, dass du ein Schwachmat bist. Genau wie der andere Trottel, der glaubt, wir müssten uns vor Russland fürchten.
    1
  2088.  @uhwake  So'n Quatsch.
    1
  2089. Wonderful, Hodges and the propaganda, name a more iconic duo. No, the US can't support both wars (they are already shipping cluster ammunition because standard munition is running low) and Jesus Christ, trying to link the Middle East conflict to Russia. And sure, throw China in for good measure, too.🙄
    1
  2090. Goddamit, can we stop calling every news event "-gate"?😄 As for the topic, what's next is the war that's coming.
    1
  2091. Yes, this pro-Ukrainian group was the US government with the help of Norway. We already know that. Trying to pin this on non-state actors is a laughable attempt at deflecting blame for attacking Germany and Russia. By the way, nice of DW News to finally talk about "new findings" regarding the Nord Stream bombings, now that someone in the US has realised that they have to muddy the waters with something more plausible than "Russia did it", even if they cannot admit to having done it themselves. Terrorists that they are.

    1
  2103. Laughable.

  2104.  @sergeyb8  How much fighting happened up there one month ago?
    1
  2105.  @sergeyb8  No, your English is just bad.
    1
  2106.  @sergeyb8  Mostly by your English. Frontline is the point of attacking?
    1
  2107.  @sergeyb8  The difference is that the conscripts were attacked and not fed into a frontline.
    1
  2108.  @sergeyb8  The overall narrative of this war is bla bla bla, meatwaves. The whole point of the video is to convince you that Russia doesn't have any experienced soldiers left and is scrapping the bottom of the barrel.
    1
  2109. Are we back to claiming that Russia feeds inexperienced men into the frontline?
    1
  2110. Not bad for Nigeria with snow. Will our experts reconsider their opinions on Russia? No? Not surprised.

  2111. Remember that it was admitted the Bundeswehr is incapable of defending Germany.

  2112.  @KillerKombo-x4m  Considering the ethnic cleansing campaign against Germans at the end of WW2? What does the question even matter? I wrote war crimes, not genocide.

  2113.  @nickkowalski5209  Biden is neither intelligent nor responsible (except for the Nord Stream attacks).

  2114. Then we can only hope Joe Biden loses the election.

  2115. Oh wow, they must be really worried that they cannot defeat Trump in the election.
    1
  2116.  @freeheeler09  What are you talking about?
    1
  2117. I am just soooooooo glad that we will continue to funnel billions to Ukraine for a war that has already been lost, instead of seeking peace. Could you imagine doing anything other than keeping up with a failed policy? Jesus Christ, it's only been two years under these clowns.
    1
  2118. I am afraid that it is far too late for negotiations.

    1
  2124. Please also find out "who" destroyed Nord Stream.

  2125.  @justanaverageguy912  The easiest way would be to vote for a party that isn't bent on fighting Russia for no reason.

  2126. No, it was the treaty and how badly it was made that ensured it.
    1
  2127. They all are.

  2131.  @AbNan11  We don't have to assume anything, Scholz already admitted it in an interview. From what I heard Tusk did the same.
    1
  2132.  @AbNan11  We don't have to assume anything, Scholz admitted it already in interviews. Same goes for Donald Tusk, if I'm not mistaken. So, probably, whenever the Russians destroy an anti air weapon platform or a multiple rocket launcher chances are that NATO people got hit.
    1
  2133.  @AbNan11  Nato troops that are manning the anti air or the long range strike weapons for example.
    1
  2134.  @Blodhelm  Well, we could make Lettland German again, I wouldn't mind. Of course that would turn the inhabitants of the new Bundesland into a minority, meaning it should be alright to phase out their languages and teach them all German, right? As a language German is far more useful anyway.
    1
  2135. So much better than transatlanticist sell-outs.
    1
  2136.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  Yes, of course I can explain. The Americans blew up Nord Stream and used Ukrainian patsies. Now, how about you actually answer with something substantive.
    1
  2137.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  No, you are comparing apples to oranges, which is why your argument falls flat on its face.
    1
  2138.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  No, because that just ignores how the American empire works.
    1
  2139.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  Besides, we've been on a downward spiral from the days of 2003 when we still could tell America to get lost and that we wouldn't participate in Iraq.
    1
  2140.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  Never opened a history book in your life, huh? At times vasalls strife for a little independence and the the master has to reign them in if he is still powerful enough. As for you false comparison, constructing Nord Stream didn't break any US laws, it hurt US interests. There is a difference.
    1
  2141.  @vhdlx  Yes, and the worst part is that politicians here are actually agreeing with that.
    1
  2142.  @Gilder-von-Schattenkreuz  They literally sanctioned it and Russia had to finish the last part themselves. Then America destroyed it.
    1
  2143.  @Hession0Drasha  No, because America wanted Ukraine in NATO and selling us their overpriced energy.
    1
  2144.  @Hession0Drasha  What a load of bull. It was because America couldn't get enough of its destructive hegemony.
    1

  2150. Ukraine must be winning big then, now that the US is pressuring it to lower the conscription age.

In truth the EU itself admitts that Georgia started the war.

  2188. ​ @jaunt3603  That's true, it happened after Russia invaded Ukraine, after we in the West purposefully stalled the peaceful resolution of the conflict through the Minsk Accords and would rather build up Ukraine's military, after Russia intervened in a brewing civil war that came about by the Western sponsored overthrow of the Ukrainian government. And Russia took Crimea. And we blocked peace talks in April because Boris Johnson and Joe Biden see this as a fantastic opportunity to take down Putin before they move on to Xi in China.

The spineless worms infesting European governments are all going along with that of course, we wouldn't be obedient lapdogs if we weren't ready to support the Nord Stream terrorists in their next foreign adventure.

  2361.  @thegreatdane3627  Yes, it's not the same. It starts with the fact that both men have fundamentally different characters. Not to mention that one of those men followed an idealogy that demanded war, the other doesn't.
    1
  2362.  @thegreatdane3627  Yes, yes, here we are again, as predictable as always. We are in Munich 1938, because that is the sole event in human history anyone at the headquarters of NATO knows. Thousands of years of human history, but only that year means anything to the propagandists.
    1
  2363.  @bonnie7898  Wonderful that you don't understand the first thing about war.
    1
  2364.  @thegreatdane3627  I would have thought that a bot like you would realise that the German Springoffensive of 1918 was carried out in WW1, you know, the war that ran from 1914 to 1918? Why do you think I used the word "Entente"? And of course you have seen these pictures. Anyway, let's pretend for the sake of argument that Verbove isn't part of the first line of defense, but behind it (and I will grant you this, no one actually ever definitively defines where what line is, which number it has and so for). So, for the sake of the argument: Ukraine wasted tens of thousands of men and suffered massive equipment losses, but has only breached the first line of defense after four months. That's in your book progress? They are attriting their army, and with it whatever leverage they might have had in negotiations, away for no strategic gain whatsoever. Calling that success just boggles the mind. Now, please tell me all about how it's actually Russia that is being attrited away, despite their air superiority and their superiority in artillery, not to mention that it's them who are on the defense.😒
    1
  2365.  @thegreatdane3627  Sure, sure, they are making progress. Germany made progress in the Spingoffensive of 1918, exhausted her army and got rolled back in the 100-days offensive by the Entente. Actually, this comparison doesn't make any sense. Germany had actually made significant progress and didn't end up stuck in front of the allied trenches, unlike Ukraine that has yet to breach the first line of defense, despite what the "expert" in the video was claiming (or have you seen a Ukrainian soldier waving his flag ontop of a dragon tooth?).

  2367.  @buyshark3838  What I'm saying is that the European Bank for Reconstruction doesn't seem to have an impressive track record, you paranoiac. Besides, you are wrong. Speaking of the comparison with their respective 1991 levels, Ukraine was second to last in 2011 and is by now dead last.
    1
  2368.  @ad_astra468  I should have been more specific, I meant in relation to its 1991 economy, though looking into it Moldova was just barely worse off in 2011, too, with Ukraine having only reached 75,9% and Moldova 74,5% of its 1991 level. Still terrible, but not the worst.
    1
  2369. Yes, and more than he even wanted, seeing as the it us who didn't want to negotiate a peace agreement in March 2022.

  2371. Now imagine if that actually mattered.

  2372.  @thegreatdane3627 Hey man, you forgot to tell me how you believe Ukraine can win the war. I'm waiting desperately for it.
    1
  2373.  @thegreatdane3627  You are really something I cannot write down, because the comment would be hidden. What do you think is going to happen when the army collapses and cannot meaningfully offer any resistance anymore? That these cities will be massive strongholds? Who'd garrison them? Also, you really show that you don't know the first thing about the conflict. Avdiivka is the main defensive structure opposite of Donetzk, built up over eight years. You think every city in Ukraine has been turned into a bastion?
    1
  2374.  @greyzonee8242  I'm 29 and unlike you I'm apparently intelligent enough to recognise that Ukraine cannot win, meaning that the longer they wait the worse the peace is going to get.

  2378. I wonder what will become Ukraine's next white whale if they manage to destroy the bridge that the media has already admitted isn't being used for military supplies anymore.
    1
  2379. No.
    1
  2380.  @Metoo3232-pu2wc  Right, it's Russia that sends untrained men to the front. They are after all so desperate to keep up the numbers that they are kidnapping men off the streets. Ukraine is the one that has only partially mobilised once and then trained the soldiers for months before introducing them to the war zone.
    1
  2381. I find it actually relieving that there are politicians willing to stand up to the establishment media and politicians for what they believe in and were voted in for. Term limits for Congress? What a wonderful idea, no wonder the corrupt pieces of shit in charge are so dead set against it. Investigation of the FBI? After the blatant interference in the presidential elections it must be done. No omnibus legislation ran through in a day anymore? Yes, please. And I'm saying this as someone who abhors the US.
    1
  2382.  @coreyleander7911  So the state was neutral and the US decided to just bomb a country in a civil war, because they were trying to salvage a war they had no business fighting and were losing.

    1
  2385.  @mduckernz  How many Ukrainian soldiers have died in this war so far and how much material has been destroyed? Biden rattled off an impressive sounding list in Kiev yesterday, but seen the hysterical behaviour of Western politicians recently we can confidently conclude that the majority of it is now scrap metal. But I don't suppose this is anything you ever thought about.
    1
  2386.  @SmilingNinja  I think you have listened too much to Ukrainian statements if you honestly believe that 30.000 Russian soldiers died in Bakhmut alone. And yes, seeing as a mercenary company is beating the Ukrainian armed forces in and around Bakhmut, I am going to call this advancing.
    1
  2387.  @SmilingNinja  Shortage of what specifically, because as far as I can tell they are advancing?
    1
  2388. ​ @thegreatdane3627  Yes, in addition to more modern tanks which you didn't mention. As for ammunition from North Korea, that's as far as I know an allegation from the West (probably to rationalise how we cannot supply Ukraine of all places and how Russia keeps firing at a rate that put Ukraine to shame).

By the way, the IMF projected Russian growth this year, I have no idea where Teri Schultz gets her information from that the Russian economy is supposed to shrink.
    1
  2396. I'm so glad that the demonisation of Russia and all things Russian has led to a pendulum swing towards the lionisation and white-washing of the USSR, you know, the totalitarian dictatorship responsible for mass deportations, mass murder and deaths in the millions throughout her history, but especially under Stalin.🙄

Depleting what meagre military stocks we had is in our interest. Subordinating ourselves to the US is in our interest.

    1
  2408.  @bonnie7898  Well, if want to stick to your copium regarding the Times article, would you prefer to read Zaluzhny's article in the Economist where he basically says that to win he needs scifi weapons?
    1
  2409.  @jaunt3603  What for? The case to not flood Ukraine with more weapons and money? Take a look at the carnage of the counter offensive, a military operation build up to for roughly half a year to nine months, and take stock of what has been achieved, ignoring the casualties on the Ukrainian side. You want that to continue? You can't be serious. Go read the Times article about how delusional Zelensky has become and then make the case for continued support of a failed policy.

  2413.  @frankthetank5708  Ukraine already did and Europe cares as little as it does in the Middle East. As for the infrastructure, Russia is going through an investment boom. Don't kid yourself.
    1
  2414.  @frankthetank5708  You are dreaming big, aren't you? Ukraine isn't capable of this sort of widespread destruction in Russia, especially not one that is comparable to what happened in Ukraine as that is the work of a larger country over the course of three years. Besides, Russia's retaliation is always going to be stronger than Ukraine's attacks.
    1
  2415.  @frankthetank5708  No, it did not. The morale of the German army collapsed under the weight of the allied offensive and the capitulations of its allies. And none of your other examples are true, either. They didn't leave because of the economy, they left because they were fighting unwinnable asymmetrical wars that sapped the publics' will to fight.
    1
  2416. ​ @frankthetank5708  The Red Army didn't have to reach Yugoslavia to force the Wehrmacht to retreat, it just needed to put the German army into a position in which it had to retreat unless they wanted to be under constant threat of getting cut off. As for your international support, it's already falling and wars don't end by economic collapses (not that it's going to happen). Economic collapses occur after wars end.
    1
  2417.  @frankthetank5708  Oh, here we go, Munich 1938, the sole year anyone in neocon world can remember, because it justifies everything. Secondly, Tito? Really? The reason he forced the Wehrmacht out was the Red Army winning in the east. So tell me where the Russian army is supposed to be defeated in order to turn it into the retreating Wehrmacht?

  2418.  @frankthetank5708  You mean the reality in which we lie to portray Ukraine's situation as somewhat better than abysmal?

  2442.  @madinkan  It's not an allied country and if Biden wanted to protect it all he had to say was 'Ukraine will never enter NATO'. Of course he didn't, because the whole point of this project starting in 2008 was this war.

  2482.  @kristieshaw4806  Like with South Vietnam.
    1
  2483.  @bonnie7898  First of all, Ukraine isn't sovereign, but completely dependent on the West. Which brings me to the second point, of course a leader of a different country can tell another what to do. He just needs leverage. As for Minsk, the Russian ambassador to Ukraine signed, Russia was part of UN Security Council that voted the treaty into international law and Russia was part of the Normandy Format. So try again.
    1
  2484.  @bonnie7898  False, Minsk hadn't been implemented because there was a dispute in which order the steps of the agreement had to be taken. Russia insisted on the order in which the points were written down, Ukraine wanted to move up those that minimised any leverage there was on Ukraine (because they didn't ever plan on implementing the agreement as they admitted at the time and since). Istanbul was torpedoed when Boris Johnson showed up to tell Ukraine they would never sign. After that torpedoing happened Bucha was discovered.

  2485. Eh no, they were already blockaded during the US-sponsored war in Yemen.

  2486. First we would have to get out from under America's boot, but our politicians enjoy servitude.

  2488.  @floydstash  You mean colonial empires, right?
    1
  2489. And what is it worth if America can get away with destroying German infrastructure?
    1
  2490.  @franciscouderq1100  Which points?
    1
  2491.  @lordssundee7047  Need I remind you that everything 82 years ago is history and I am concerned with the present and future? Who destroyed Nord Stream and how come Scholz, standing next to Biden, allowed himself to be bend over by a geriatric?
    1
  2492. Life got worse during these last few years, all the while the West goes through a leadership crisis. That would be my guess.
    1
  2493. Hopefully we'll keep both countries outside the respective organisation and hopefully Germany will leave NATO sometime during my lifetime.
    1
  2494. I'm sure it'll be as successful as "installing democracy" in places such as Syria, Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq.😒
    1
  2495.  @tomhenry897  No, he's right.
    1
  2496. They attack because you occupy the region and shield Israel despite their actions in Gaza.

  2498.  @GlennRA3  Then check the reporting on this channel.

  2499.  @MAXlMUS  Because it's (Orthodox) Christmas, you genius (and because he can show the immediate out of hand rejection to people like Xi and Modi).
    1
  2500. In order to avoid all-out war the US should exert actual pressure and stop weapon shipments to Israel.
    1
  2501. It was America. Like, it's obvious. Not that anything is going to happen about that, like kicking every last Nord Stream terrorist out of the country.😒
    1
  2502. No, America owes us an apology for blowing up our infrastructure.

  2503.  @uhwake  How many cents do you earn per post?

  2512.  @dracont11 Obvious NATO bot is obvious.

  2513. If they could they would have already done so. There are simply not enough of them, but we keep pretending as if Ukraine could win.
    1
  2514. Great, they are preparing sanctions on China. Go on, cut more limbs off, just retreat into the hegemonic shadow of the US. It's not like we need an economic alternative.🤦‍♂
    1
  2515. "Gains have been modest, every square kilometr counts", well we have to give it a positive spin somehow. "We try to preserve life, unlike those Russians, that's why we are moving slowly". Oh yeah, sure thing. Anyway, keep it up, DW News, I hope you achieve your goal of convincing people that Ukraine is winning, that they have to keep supporting Ukraine, even when that is demonstrably not true and we are just burning through the Ukrainian population.

  2516.  @richardm4825  What fool believes anything about this war coming from the mainstream media?

  2517.  @d123d67  That's how you grease the wheels of the defence industry.

  2518. Criticising Israel is anti-Semitic, don‘t you know? At this point the world would allow Israel to build camps.

  2519.  @monumentaltravel3745  Well, according to polls from 2013 the Crimeans are where they wanted to be.

    1
  2523.  @bonnie7898  Wow. Yes, very good, Ukraine has drones. Now guess why Russia isn't fighting as if we were still in the 1940s. Could it be, because Ukraine has drones?
    1
  2524.  @nicocrestmere9688  No, we are crossing our own lines. There is a difference.
    1
  2525.  @bonnie7898  What's there to sink in? Warfare has moved on, you could see that in the Armenia conflict. Drones have changed how wars are conducted.
    1
  2526.  @nicocrestmere9688  No, the West is crossing every red line it itself ever set.
    1
  2527.  @nicocrestmere9688  Yes, especially since Ukraine didn't do that. You probably haven't noticed it, but it looks pretty bleak for Ukraine.

  2528.  @nicocrestmere9688  Genius, throw military logic out the window for PR.

  2529. I'd write that I'm hoping that the outcome of the election will prevent the Ukraine project from going forward, but we all know that that won't be the case.
    1
  2530. The solution is clearly to starve them all into submission, exactly what the US is doing, the women and girls we wish to liberate as well!😒 In case someone didn't get it, I'm being sarcastic. A good 40 years of catastrophic involvement in Afghanistan and now we are told to jump back in and get tangled up in that pit again.
    1
  2531. No, Israel is discrediting itself.
    1
  2532. No, it won’t. What are we going to do about it? Nothing.

  2533.  @ronin8926  Dunno, didn't watch it. I believe the latest he did was sitting down with war correspondents for a three and a half hour interview. Can you imagine Biden doing that?🙃
    1
  2534.  @rockyjohnson9243  Are they still fighting in Gaza? Have the settlers returned to the north?
    1
  2535.  @rockyjohnson9243  Is that why they are still fighting in Gaza and have failed to properly push into Lebanon?
    1
  2536.  @rockyjohnson9243  Why? It's been a year and Israel hasn't attained any of its goals so far.
    1
  2537.  @NicolasHaufe  No, Israel is just not my golden calf.
    1
  2538.  @OmmerSyssel  A quick google search proves you wrong. Just like you are wrong about the proxy war in Ukraine, but it'll take around 5 to 10 years for everyone to agree what a disaster and mistake that was, including you I'm sure. It happened with Iraq, it happened with Afghanistan and I'm sure you won't have the integrity to admit that you backed the war today. After all, nowadays everyone was an Iraq sceptic during the Iraq war.
    1
  2539. Probably. The energy prices don't help either.
    1
  2540. Why are they even spouting the lie about Russia being "increasingly isolated" anymore? Russia is isolated from the US and its vasall states (and man, considering the US blew up our pipelines I wish Scholz would find his balls and tell them off), everyone else doesn't care about the war. By the way you muppets, nearly the entire world, including Germany, agrees that Taiwan is a part of China. China therefore can't violate the national sovereignty of Taiwan, because Taiwan doesn't have any. Germany agrees that Taiwan is a province of China.
    1
  2541.  @glendacastillo6504  Which is only fair, since it's their fault.

  2542.  @DOWNUNDER.  America should pay, since it's its fault to begin with.
    1
  2543.  davedeville6540  Big surprise, considering international organisations were barely a thing back then. As for your argument, the Red Sea is currently under attack because of American policy and the American navy is incapable of stopping the Houthis.
    1
  2544.  davedeville6540  What do we even need one for? To replace America in its neo-colonial wars.

  2546.  @jaxvoice718  Right, in your fantasy world Ukraine can win the war, huh?
    1
  2547. You mean America is doing this to Germany.

  2548. America ruining Germany.

  2555.  @peabase  I already did, you just chose to ignore the manpower crisis, the lack of equipment and the breaking defensive line, the failure of their offensive and the lack of any plan.
    1
  2556.  @peabase  You are really far down the rabbit hole if you actually believe that Ukraine can win the war. I assume that last year you thought you could party in Crimea by fall?
    1
  2557.  @peabase  Your ill-fitting comparison aside, Ukraine isn't pulling this off. They are struggling through a manpower crisis, are under constant shortage of material and their defensive lines are buckling all along the front. Their hail mary into Kursk accomlished nothing and the much hyped victory plan turned out to be no plan at all. This isn't how winning looks like.
    1
  2558.  @peabase  In what kind of dream world does one have to live to actually believe Ukraine could pull that off?
    1
  2559.  @peabase  If you want to define capitulating and being forced to acquiesce to all Russian demands as a defensive victory, when the time comes, sure.
    1
  2560. That just means that the majority of Europeans are more intelligent than their politicians.
    1
  2561. Yeah, of course the sanctions don't hamper reconstruction efforts. I mean, they weren't imposed to starve our the Syrian government. And hey, all that oil that America is stealing? I'm sure the proceeds will be invested in building up the war torn country.🤷‍♂

  2563.  @michaelchrist4620  Airstrikes? That's not new.

    1
  2565.  @wandeling127  Do I care?

  2566.  @wandeling127  Do I care? At least they aren't financing genocide at the moment or starve whole countries through sanctions.
    1
  2567.  @wandeling127  By not following your twisted logic?
    1
  2568.  @wandeling127  How? By not following twisted logic to the ridiculous conclusion that Russia would blow up Russian infrastructure when they could simply keep the pipes closed?
    1
  2569.  @derekmoore8224  America.

  2570. Ukraine isn't going to join anyway.

  2571.  @nikolasmaes99  We don't even react to America burning down our neighbourhood or destroying our infrastructure. We've been reduced to vassal state status.
    1
  2572. And nowadays we don’t even react to America causing catastrophe over catastrophe in our neighbourhood and destroying our infrastructure. Proving that we’ve been reduced to vassal state status.

  2574.  @VictorLyuba  This is what is called projection.
    1
  2575. Because unlike Ukraine Russia can actually pay the compensations?
    1
  2576. We could have been here in March last year, but Boris Johnson torpedoed that attempt, so you know, this won't end until the West decides the proxy war is lost. Given the rhetoric you here from there, that won't happen anytime soon.
    1
  2577.  @sahilprasai9869  How?

  2578. How did that save the country? All it did was ruin Germany.

  2583.  @c.a.savage5689  We are basically hoping that they will, but just like with the military situation a "hope strategy" shouldn't be pursued in a financial war.
    1
  2584.  @telebubba5527  More like 260 and we are supposed to cover 50 billion and interest solely by stealing the Russian interest, so basically hope that each year it'll make enough, otherwise you have to pay that from your own pockets. Especially since Ukraine will never pay it back.
    1
  2585. Oh sure, ignore American espionage and cry foul when it comes to China. We really are a pathetic vassal state of the US.
    1
  2586. I'm excited to learn in the coming days what this incompetent muppet has managed to muck up for Germany and Europe with her visit. I would imagine that she reminded the Chinese that we in Germany and Europe are obedient bootlickers of the American liege lord.

  2587. Why do they even have to shelter? Russia ran out of missiles in 2022.
    1
  2588. Don't worry, for every inch one thousand Russians have to die! This doesn't explain how they keep advancing, but it's still true, one hundred thousand dead Russians for a single inch of ground! Russia is clearly running out of men and has been doing so since March last year. One million dead Russians for a single inch of ground! They'll collapse any minute now, trust me guys, the Western strategy is working and there is no need to reassess the plan and consider something as fascist as a ceasefire! Also, please note how often they stress that there isn't any strategic importance to the city. It's important, remember it for the test!

  2589.  @hankjones3527  Oh yeah, the invisible NK soldiers.

  2590. It’s only fair. Starmer did it in the US.

  2591.  @lmao.3661  When you are running out of everything you shouldn't throw it away for media stunts.
    1
  2592.  @lmao.3661  It's a pointless stunt for media consumption. Ukraine expanded military resources for little purpose whatsoever. I'm sorry you don't recognise this.
    1
  2593. Man, Ukraine is really getting desperate for media attention.
    1
  2594. They always deny and claim a false flag attack. Give it a couple of weeks, then the US will admit that yes, it was Ukraine. That's how these media stunts always go. Oh, and the irony of these clowns accusing Russia of disinformation when it's programs like DW News who bring on "experts" to tell us how Russia is running out of everything.
    1
  2595.  @HaleG9  It is you who insulted me for daring to go against the established orthodoxy.

  2596. Oh. Well, that's that then. War over, guys. The UN has spoken.😃
    1
  2597. Of course Ukraine would do that next after not achieving anything of note in Kursk.

  2613. Sustain Ukraine's momentum? What momentum? Where are they on the offensive? As usual, just buzzwords, no substance. NATO has neither a strategy, nor a clearly defined goal. We struggle to supply ammunition, not enough tanks, no one wants to send fighter jets. But we are still pretending that we are winning this.😒
    1
  2614.  @arnodobler1096  But the US is already supporting ethnic cleansing.
    1
  2615. Ben Hodges is wrong. Deep strikes won’t change the equation and will only lead to harsher terms for Ukraine.
    1
  2616. He’s wrong, though.
    1
  2617.  @Devillunar  Yeah sure, arsenal of democracy. That was 80 years ago, times have changed and the US has shipped a lot of its manufacturing away. Anyway, last I paid attention the US planned to reach 100k shells per month by 2025. However, Ukraine needs 6k per day and it needs it right now. While waiting on the insufficient shell production they can also try and solve Ukraine's trained manpower issue. Perhaps the supermarkets have those in stock.
    1
  2618.  @Devillunar  Yes they can't, as proven by their inability to keep Ukraine supplied. Remember when the US started sending cluster ammunition because they were running low on the standard shells?
    1
  2619.  @Devillunar  Wow, copium makes one verbose. Listen, there isn't the industrial capacity to keep up with Ukraine's ammuntion demands and they can't order well drilled soldiers on amazon.
    1
  2620.  @Devillunar Since when does copium make one this verbose? Listen, Ukraine is not going to win. They won't magic up the ammunition that they need and they can't buy well trained soldiers at the supermarket. You don't just hit a switch to operate under "ideal NATO doctrine" and there aren't any wonder weapons in large enough numbers to win Ukraine the war.

  2621.  @toddbrackett4277  I made a factual statement. If that is the prerequisite for peace negotiations there won't be any ever.

    1
  2624.  @th3cleaner354  Because America and Britain enabled the theft, not Iran.

    1
  2634.  @SimSimon87  Thank God Ukraine is not in a demographic crisis and has millions of young men just chomping at the bits to get trained, eh?
    1
  2635.  @SimSimon87  Jesus, this is eyeroll worthy. Money does not buy you men, much less trained men. Ukraine doesn't have the population to sustain the fight. Have you already forgotten the struggle to get the latest mobilisation law passed? Lastly, hope is no strategy. But fingers crossed, eh? Maybe in two years time something will come up.
    1
  2636. Of course they denied it. They don't want to be thrown under the bus by the mastermind behind this attack, the United States of America. And our pathetic government is doing nothing about our "ally" attacking us. No, instead we help them in their little pet project in Ukraine so that they launder more money. Not to mention that like the loyal vassal that we are, we are gearing up to support them in their next war, too, because for some reason we really have to help America keep their island chain around China intact.
    1
  2637.  @mazimazu8122  Because our vassal masters in Washington are terrorists that have spent the last twenty years or so setting fire to our neighbourhood. Not to mention that they destroyed German infrastructure.

  2645.  @willhudson5625  He shouldn't even be president at this moment (if he's unfit to campaign he's unfit to serve), so no, the Democrats wanted him there, they have to deal with the consequences.

  2646.  @willhudson5625  Biden is still the leader of the party and just repeated what everyone knows the Democratic leadership thinks of Trump supporters.

  2647.  @HochgeborenKlown  By that measure both the Republicans and Democrats would struggle to find anyone. And again, the other side has the sitting president say worse.

  2658. Seeing the polls coming out of the US it appears people prefer MAGA over whatever we call the policies of the senile in chief.

  2659. Throwing more good money after bad as our money supply shrinks. Genius.
    1
  2660.  @benfreiler4054  That's not true. Ukrainians were against NATO until America decided to regume change them, you fool. It's then when Russia intervened to prevent Crimea from falling into American hands and the ultranationalists attempted to ban the Russian language, which led to the conflict in Donbass.

  2661.  @benfreiler4054  America changed the democratically elected government of Ukraine in order to draw them into NATO. It is America's doing.

  2662. To stop the negative cycle, the Nord Stream bombers could stop attempting to cut Taiwan out of China.
    1
  2663.  @felixf.3392  Because that is going to end in nuclear war and I wish I could add what I think of you right now.
    1
  2664. You bot shouldn't spread dangerous ideas like that around.
    1
  2665.  @syncmonism  Yes of course, they never wanted the war to happen, they just chose to pursue Ukrainian membership of NATO irregardless of knowing that it was a Russian red line. They just chose to back a coup that would later clamp down on minorities in Ukraine. They just chose to hamstrung the Minsk Accords. They just chose to refuse negotiations on a new security framework in Europe. They just chose to break off peace negotiations in Instanbul. They never wanted the war to happen, sure, they just did whatever they could to start it (perhaps because they thought Putin was bluffing?). Well, congratulations, war happened, Ukraine is getting wrecked, they blew up the Nord Stream pipelines and the media is spinning in endless circles trying to keep up with the lies.
    1
  2666.  @John-k8k9q  Which part earned a "nah"?
    1
  2667. The Nord Stream terrorists just want to provoke China. With a little luck it'll blow up in their faces.

  2668. They are really determined delay the inevitable until after the elections.

  2669.  @MayThereBeWorldPeace  No, I simply had the misfortune of listening to Kamala for a moment.

  2670. "Lithuania's freedom is Germany's freedom". Then why did we protect our freedom in Afghanistan for 20 years?
    1
  2671. If only, but I assume that this is just a psyop.
    1
  2672. So the PMC that got "completely devastated" in Bakhmut is a threat to Poland and NATO? Morawiecki must be really desperate to get NATO attention.
    1
  2673. Germany didn't support the genocide against Armenia. You can count the Herero, though.

  2674.  @tomhenry897  Scholz might be personally corrupt, but I can assure you that Germany is not anywhere near as corrupt as Ukraine is.
    1
  2675. Does it even matter with Trump's insurmoutable lead in the polls?
    1
  2676. No, it won't. The last bazzilion sanctions didn't work, this one won't either.
    1
  2677.  @MovieGuy808  Is this the cope you are using to stay alive?

    1
  2682.  @alhambrabiker1476  And you are not smart enough to follow this conversation.
    1
  2683.  @juang.4718  No, because it had not been agreed to be as such.
    1
  2684.  @andreyvtr.2162  Disarming it? Ukraine had neither the financial means to keep the weapons running, nor the codes to actually launch them.

  2687. So Xi finally took pity on Zelensky, huh? Now a few days of the media distributing hopium for the masses and everything returns to normal, because nothing has actually changed.
    1
  2688. So it wasn't a pro-Ukrainian group attacking infrastructure this time?😄
    1
  2689. Shouldn't have stolen our gas then.

  2690.  @zargorn  Yes, they thought Russia was out to conquer and not to negotiate.

  2691.  @krzywygeneral  It wasn't, it's only become one because of the Americans.
    1
  2692. He’s certainly much more an actor than Biden at the moment.
    1
  2693. The American MIC is already rubbing its hands. Well, at least Ukraine will have a handful of fighter jets for whatever ill-advised offensive they are planning.

  2695. The state showing its grotesque face again.

  2696.  @MsBaltrax  Uh, I was the last to comment in that argument, so seems like he didn't know what to reply? Unless you want to tell me that I should check the comments sorted by newest to see his reply?
    1
  2697.  @MsBaltrax  What does it matter?
    1
  2698.  @jeremytine  Yeah, yeah, like the US would never ever do that, if say Russia were to install its military in Cuba. As for the people that have been armed, you know full well what I'm talking about. The type of people who weren't written about anymore after 2022.
    1
  2699.  @jeremytine  Besides provoking the war, not to mention arming specific types of people.
    1
  2700.  @mechano6505  Oh sure, when exactly did those fly over Kiev or Lviv to drop bombs on electrical infrastructure, which the single patriot system the US is sending is meant to protect?
    1
  2701. Who knows, maybe the government should stop kowtowing to the Nord Stream terrorists, perhaps putting German interests first might help to stem the tide of populism.
    1
  2702.  @TriggaTrey361  What, do you dispute that your previous comment makes no sense as written?
    1
  2703.  @TriggaTrey361  What can I say, whatever you wrote down simply did not look like English.

  2707.  @ianhamilton3113  No, as America planned (except they are losing in Ukraine).

    1
  2714.  @shazam992  To take a realistic look at their situation and to start negotiations.
    1
  2715. Of course we can, you US shill. I'm not seeing a reason to fight for US hegemony over the planet, the Americans can fight for it themselves.
    1
  2716. War is obviously going splendidly, why else would we be recruiting women?
    1
  2717. By winning?
    1
  2718.  @vanessali1365  What are you talking about?
    1
  2719. Obviously. Israel wants to starve the Gazans.
    1
  2720. How's Ukraine doing?
    1
  2721. Oh wonderful, I guess Finland's population and industrial capacity is enough to tip the scales for NATO to wage a war in Asia.🙄 On which planet is China a threat to NATO? Or might it be a threat to the hegemony of the Nord Stream bombers?
    1
  2722. Why exactly does China have to be a rival?
    1
  2723. Waste of time. Like the twenty years we wasted there.

  2724.  @ImAmirus  Your argument doesn't make sense.
    1
  2725.  @ImAmirus  You are really bending backwards to make your argument work.
    1
  2726.  @ImAmirus  Yes, the CDU would sell the country out to America, too. In that sense the government is being "conservative".
    1
  2727.  @TheMFactor-xx7cl  Who's been talking about the faaaar-right?
    1
  2728. It's been nearly two years. Frankly Trump is being investigated for six years now. Nothing happened, I doubt anything is going to change.
    1
  2729.  alloutofbubblegum7271  Ignoring how that is not how they are going to win the war, you can be absolutely certain that China will literally saturate the sky with anti air missiles.
    1
  2730.  alloutofbubblegum7271  Right, if they hit and it comes to a massive meltdown we'll all die in nuclear armageddon.
    1
  2731.  @Andy-P  Yeah, same situation as in Europe. "We are perpetually at Munich in 1938". They'll never stop, or so they tell us, because they have no other historical data point than that.
    1
  2732.  alloutofbubblegum7271  Ukraine shelled the one at Zaporizhia, but that is of course not what you mean.
    1
  2733.  alloutofbubblegum7271  Ignoring that the strikes haven't helped Ukraine win anything yet, you are ignroing the geographic size of Ukraine and Russia. Taiwan is far, far smaller which allows China to concentrate anti air weaponry in a far smaller territory, while China is almost certainly capable of fielding far more systems than Russia has if they ramp up production.
    1
  2734.  alloutofbubblegum7271  Anti-air weaponry.
    1
  2735.  @frederikpedersen689  Have I written that they have already lost?
    1
  2736. But we gotta HARDEN Taiwan, although that makes a military conflict more likely, not less!
    1
  2737.  @beastmode8203  What would I cry about? I'm looking forward to the US having a meeting with karma. I'm just afraid that Scholz or some other weak-willed chancellor will go along with the pointless sanction war that will accompany the Nord Stream bombers getting their just deserts. There's of course the thousands of Taiwanese that'll die in the crossfire, but there isn't much one can do about that.
    1
  2738. The Nord Stream bombers really want to fight a war over the question of whether or not a Chinese island is allowed to secede. Of course Germany will be right at our liege's side when that happens, being the obedient client state that it is. Edit: Stefan Simons is lying. The US has not recognised the Taiwanese government as legitimate, it holds to the One China Principle.
    1
  2739.  @bigzed7908  Are you shitting me?
    1
  2740.  @fockewulf190d9  Yeah, but Putin didn't want to take all of Ukraine and got suckered into Minsk.
    1
  2741.  @Trattato68  You mean after America couped the government.
    1
  2742.  @Trattato68  Russia made it its business and America knew they would since at least 2008. Besides the 60s prove you wrong.
    1
  2743.  @Trattato68  Yeah sure, which is why American politicians flew in and out and got caught planning on their phones.
    1
  2744.  @Trattato68  Yeah sure, which is why American politicians flew in and out through the whole process and got caught on phone planning. Which is why they polled places like Crimea the year before and why their think tanks are obsessed with the country. And before I forget it, the 60s showed how much it was Russia's business.
    1
  2745.  @Trattato68  I can tell you don't even know what the conflict over the Minsk agreement was even about. As for Budapest, the Americans broke their side first when they decided to do what they did in 2014.
    1
  2746.  @Trattato68  Because Ukraine didn't fulfill the points that would have preceeded that.
    1
  2747. What’s the point of this attack? You stretch your own insufficient resources even further to embarrass Russia for a couple of weeks? Sure, and then what?
    1
  2748. I was told they are Putin stooges, because demanding higher pay during times of high inflation is aiding Russia. In fact, high inflation is just Russian disinformation.
    1
  2749. Huh, the consequences of World War 1 reverberate even today, in areas you wouldn't immediately think of.
    1
  2750.  @luciferjohnson8495  I wish Germany would leave.
    1
  2751. I'm sure you, Allan Smith, are capable of explaining the point of seizing strategically pointless territory.
    1
  2752. Sure, Allan Smith, you of course have one. The Ukrainians attacked to seize strategically worthless territory. If they have people like you in charge they might have thought that was a good idea.
    1
  2753.  @luciferjohnson8495  Pretending that Russia even wants that. And I can absolutely blame America for causing the current situation.
    1
  2754. Well, Allan Smith, it was diverting Russian troops from Donbass and the NPP.
    1
  2755.  @terryharris1291  The former de facto members are now de jure members. Big deal.
    1
  2756. Yeah, sure. After Russia's unconditional surrender and the occupation of the largest country on Earth. So never.
    1
  2757. Nowhere, he is just posturing for his base that calls him Genocide Joe, a perfectly fitting nickname.
    1
  2758.  @Truckeren01  Go look the meaning of the word sarcasm up.
    1
  2759.  @porecemusnox8805  Not really, considering they provoked the war (and in the case of Olaf could have just not sanctioned it in the first place).
    1
  2760.  Fresh Russian Meat  Yes. It probably won't hold another five months.
    1
  2761.  Fresh Russian Meat  Yeah, yeah, which is why the Ukrainian army kept feeding men into the village and tried to retake it now, what, three times? And Bakhmut is holding for now.
    1
  2762.  Fresh Russian Meat  Of course they can't, after all Ukraine is showing so much aptitude in dislodging Russia from Soledar and Bakhmut.
    1
  2763.  Fresh Russian Meat  What of them? Ukraine and Russia had multiple rocket launchers before and after them.
    1
  2764. Of course they have, that's why we try to come up with more and more game changers.
    1
  2765. Maybe they'll offset the fall in electricity consumption that seems to be an indication for a deep crisis heading our way.
    1
  2766.  @deanbarnett8538  Right, just like we've turned the countries in the south of Europe into economic powerhouses and industrial giants.
    1
  2767.  @SerBallister  Ah, sure. When everything looks to you like Munich 1938 I suppose your statement makes some sort of sense.
    1
  2768.  @SerBallister  I'm not sure what that has to do with Moldova and its EU candidacy and what you are attempting to tell me.
    1
  2769. None of this matters if you can't produce the items and the spare parts in numbers or man them.
    1
  2770. It’s always the same thing: they keep shifting the goalpost as their lies are exposed. Russia was meant to collapse in 2022. Well, still waiting on that one.
    1
  2771. Like NATO cares. They'll rather dumb their junk on Ukraine, pretending that the next weapon system would surely "game the change, tide and table the turns". Only for the wonder weapons to fail. Could you imagine what would happen if we actually admitted that there is no military path for Ukraine to restore its 1991 borders? We might actually negotiate and end the war before we run out of men willing to march to the slaughter.
    1
  2772. I used to think that anyone but Biden should do the job, but after the Nord Stream terrorist attacks by the US and seeing how US influence in the world is collapsing I am actually hoping for four more disastrous years.
    1
  2773. The country to the south will hopefully not prevail.
    1
  2774.  @Nils.Minimalist  Aren't you a cute one.
    1
  2775. We will believe that Russia did it, despite being in control of the power plant.
    1
  2776. I'd make a joke about Ukraine not knowing about the land bridge connecting Crimea to the mainland, but it would fall flat considering they are bashing their heads against the minefields in front of the fortified lines Russia erected in the south. Oh, and the expert pretends Ukraine has momentum in the south.😂
    1
  2777. Pretty rich coming from America, talking about "economic coercion". Oh, the Nord Stream bombers, never change. Hypocrites to the last.
    1
  2778.  @xxvxxv5588  So what? That doesn't mean anything.
    1
  2779.  @haraldbjthunem4059  You've forgotten to tell me who you think blew up the pipelines.
    1
  2780.  @shawnmurray9964  It was German infrastructure and my government is too cowardly to expel diplomats or to close down US bases in response. I take solace in the knowledge that the US is on a collision course with China, which will serve as a third humiliation in one decade.
    1
  2781. And this was worth a video? Really?
    1
  2782.  @avro-day  Yeah yeah, keep telling yourself that.
    1
  2783.  @francispeter8169  Yes, and I remember that it wasn't the pullback of forces from Afghanistan that doomed the USSR, no matter how much popular belief wants to pretend that Afghanistan is some sort of graveyard of empires. As for your wait and see approach, what am I meant to see see and what am I waiting for? The point at which the Russians were supposed to run out of literally everything has been moved back and back by the media. Well, hasn't happened yet and by contrast the USA is now delivering cluster ammunition because they don't have any regular shells to send anymore.
    1
  2784. Where were you all of last year when it had already been attempted?
    1
  2785. Hahaha, no, we can't. Also, we shouldn't.
    1
  2786. Wonderful, a German Marshall Fund stooge. America's influence in Germany is going strong.🤢 Well, as for what he's said, can we just stop pretending that Russia is isolated already? Repeating it ad nauseam isn't going to make it a reality.
    1
  2787. The Biden mirage is over and Trump behaves like a bull in a china shop.
    1
  2788. Thank God, I wanted to buy more.
    1
  2789. Perhaps not every Taiwanese wants to see his island become another proxy for the Nord Stream bombers.
    1
  2790.  @lawrencekling8598  Yeah, given the garbage that is coming out of Baerbock's mouth, among others, I'm not convinced. I see another disastrous sanction war coming.
    1
  2791.  @PolityczneLSD  😂
    1
  2792. Mr Thank you USA bullshitting. What is Poland even going to do?
    1
  2793.  @spacecube8561  Yes, the terminal works. Gas is more expensive, though. Why do you think the industry is collapsing? Because it got cheaper?
    1
  2794.  @spacecube8561  Sure, without cheap energy. Why didn't anyone think of that before?
    1
  2795.  @JamesBond-su7hj  Yeah, with a collapsing industrial sector. Yippie...
    1
  2796. I suppose one reason it faltered is because journalists spin the narrative? Like the famous "three days war" that was never expressed by Russia and was only talked about in the West. Same goes for last year's 8th of May where everyone in the media expected something major. And who could forget the anticipation for a full mobilisation announcement that Ukrainian intelligence assured us would happen at New Year. Not to mention in Putin's address to the Federal Assembly a couple of days before. Or today even, because our media just wants these dramatic developments, a major offensive by Russia, something symbolic. Meanwhile Russia just prosecutes the war, irregardless of whatever deadlines or expectations our Western media sets. (And then, when they fail to meet these expectations we are being told Russia is losing the war)
    1
  2797. Concerning that two out of three democrats want to vote for a dementia patient.
    1
  2798. Let Trump and Musk cook.
    1
  2799. I'm surprised to hear that "ceasefire" is part of the American lexicon.
    1
  2800. No, the US can't dictate anything. After all unconditional weapon and money aid is enshrined in their contitution, it's literally article 1. There is also a very powerful pro-Israel lobby in the US and it's an election year.
    1
  2801.  @Kartoffelsuppe_m_Wursteinlage  Oh please, Zelensky is just being thrown under the bus by Biden. As if the Ukraine would do anything of this sort without the express permission of the US (ignoring that I doubt they even have the capablility for it. This was an US job).
    1
  2802. Oh no, how terrible. Anyway.
    1
  2803. The woman sounds like she is coping.
    1
  2804. Clearly our sanctions are working.🙄 Scholz, that spineless coward, should resign.
    1
  2805. Yeah, yeah, Scholz is just talking. Would be nice to cut ourselves off the hegemony of the Nort Stream terrorists, though.
    1
  2806.  @missano3856  Destroying our infrastructure and starting the kerfuffle in the east.
    1
  2807. Yeah, yeah, he will not stop before he plants his flag on the White House or something.
    1
  2808. Fearmongering.

  2809. Stop burning down the world.

  2810.  @Kingbob217  You didn't ask a question.

  2811.  @Kingbob217  I hurt your feelings, huh?
    1
  2812.  @cowboyx9380  And I'm a Nigerian prince.🙄
    1
  2813.  @cowboyx9380  Must be great going through life with blinders.
    1
  2814.  @NoVisionGuy  I'm pointing out reality. Israel lost the war in 2006.
    1
  2815.  @peabase  Yeah, yeah, and Hezbollah has no agency of its own, because of magic mindcontrol rays from Iran. Hezbollah started as an organic resistance movement back when Israel was still occupying the south of Lebanon, their whole shtick and legitimacy rests on the idea that they can fight back. They don't need Iran to pick a fight with Israel, win it and use that to legitimise themselves.
    1
  2816.  @FC-ce9pj  It was still an attack by on us and the government did absolutely nothing.
    1
  2817.  @nigelgarrett7970  Why would anyone trust America's intelligence agencies?
    1
  2818.  @J_A_W_  Trump colluded with Russia, Hunter Biden's laptop was a Russian plot, etc. Russia is just a convenient boogieman to scare people.
    1
  2819.  @AurediumRiptide  I understand your initial comment. It's just complete bull because you refuse to acknowledge that production numbers are what matter.
    1
  2820.  @AurediumRiptide  You are so wrong, it's not even funny. Production numbers are the metric.
    1
  2821.  @AurediumRiptide  You have explained nothing. You keep evading my pointing out that the production numbers don't bear out your fantasies. I gave you a source. You respond with Russian intel as if you had access to it and you pretend that the numbers don't matter, when it's the central point. Next thing you do is creating some strawman. Fact is, you very first sentence isn't true.
    1
  2822.  @AurediumRiptide  I did not attack you, where do you even get that strawman from? I'm saying that you are wrong and you haven't even been able to dispute my argument. You are just making some nebulous assertion that Russia is supposedly worried.
    1
  2823.  @AurediumRiptide  What exactly do you know about Russian intel?
    1
  2824.  @AurediumRiptide  Don't you realise how little sense that makes? Talking about weapon production, but ignoring the numbers?
    1
  2825.  @AurediumRiptide  It's addressing your first sentence directly and popping the fantasy you express in your second sentence. So yes, it sure is related.
    1
  2826.  @AurediumRiptide  It's very much related to your comment since you believe that Europe's rearmament is working.
    1
  2827. According to Radio Liberty Europe doesn't even produce a third of the ammunition we claim we produce.
    1
  2828. Just another step towards preparing for war over Taiwan. I'm just waiting to see if these new sanctions boomerang back at us.
    1
  2829.  @franko1904  Biden lied about his son Hunter Biden and his laptop in the last election cycle.
    1
  2830.  @hundredfireify  The West is going to pile up the pressure on China next. Both militarily and economically.
    1
  2831. China could be pushing us into an awkward position were we'd say "no, no ceasefire just yet"? Boris Johnson already scuttled peace talks in April of last year.
    1
  2832. Nothing will change, Russia will just adapt to the changed environment. Just like when we first sent HIMARS. A week or two the media gleefully announced strikes, afterwards silence.
    1
  2833.  @thegreatdane3627  You know that Germany sanctioned Russia first and that we were trying to crash their economy. Did you expect them to take it lying down?
    1
  2834.  @thegreatdane3627  Germany sanctioned Russia first and you know that full damn well. You are just of the opinion that to be "reliable" they have to take it lying down, while we literally try to crash their economy. As for China, I'm sorry, China is just Germany's largest trading partner. Big difference, can't have healthy economic trade with imports.
    1
  2835.  @timmy-wj2hc  I know, I know, just voicing my wishful thinking out loud.
    1
  2836. Russia is on the cusp of failure, which is why they are taking Bakhmut with shovels.🙄

  2837.  @asynchronicity  Ridiculous amount? It was a single partial mobilisation, taking 350k from a pool of 2 million, caused by the realisation that the lines were stretched thin. Since then the front has completely stabalised and Ukraine couldn't repeat any of their successes. By contrast Ukraine has had multiple rounds of mobilisation. You can go and find videos of people getting press-ganged into the service of the Ukrainian army, that's how desperate they are to plug holes. It couldn't look bleaker than that.

  2838.  @asynchronicity  For starters you are calling me a fascist, not that I expected any less from you, but you are apparently blind to the mood shift in the media like "Die Welt" or "The Guardian". The increasingly desperate defence of Bakhmut didn't raise an eyebrow yet? The West bitterly fighting over a few dozen western main battle tanks to send, concealing that they have already been sending tanks from former Warsaw Pact stocks? Government purges in the name of "fighting corruption"? A good half of the Russian mobilised yet to be committed to the fighting? Does that look like winning to you?

I was under the impression you were talking about the current situation where yes, one would have to live in a fantasy land to claim that Ukraine is winning territory back.

    1
  2863. @Lessons in Logic Oh dear God, have I anywhere disputed that Ukraine has taken territory back? The point, and I know this might be hard to understand for the likes of you, is that it doesn't matter how much Ukraine can take back as long as Ukraine is completely incapable of taking the hammer to the actual Russian army. It just means that Ukraine is exhausting its forces, while Russia can always take everything back when the AFU starts disintegrating from its losses.

And, seeing as Russia's war machine is still chugging along (allegedly the target of the sanctions) and Russia apparently doesn't have to open washing machines for chips, your claim that the sanctions are working are laughable.
