  1. Yet they are saying now that the shell shortage is over. Might be propaganda, but I find their case more plausible than yours. ISW today: "Russia's defense industrial base (DIB) will reportedly manufacture and refurbish three times as many artillery shells as the West will produce in 2024, although Russian shells reportedly suffer from quality-control issues and Ukrainian artillery is reportedly more precise than Russian artillery."

  2. More from ISW: Russian milbloggers recently complained that the amount of gunpowder in Russian artillery shells widely varies, causing artillery systems to perform inconsistently.[13] The Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) reported in March that Russia currently has about three million rounds of old artillery ammunition in its stockpiles, but that much of it is in poor condition.[14] RUSI and other Western analysts also assessed that Russia’s current domestic ammunition production is not sufficient for its war in Ukraine, so Russia will likely continue relying on supplies from partners.[15] Ukraine's Main Military Intelligence Deputy Chief Major General Vadym Skibitskyi reported in February that Russia had imported about 1.5 million rounds of ammunition from North Korea, but that about half of the munitions did not function and the other half required restoration or inspection before use.[16]

  10.  @bubbajones6907  Russians vote does not actually matter. If they spend all time neutering the opposition, what are their votes worth?

  11. SMO is not a thing. It is newspeak. Try to be a bit more authentic, "Richard".

  12.  @tawektawek3838  I wish they would own up to their bot existence sometime. It is literally the only interesting things about their sad existence.

  15. Nonsense. NATO is not geopolitically obsessed and they can still sink anything that floats on the Black Sea via air or navy from Turkey to Poland.
