On 24 February Russia invaded Ukraine. After 3 weeks of aggressive bombings, it looks like Russia has no more firing power. Russia has asked China for military assistance. China does not want to get involved.
Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has announced the UK government will send more weapons to Ukraine, including fresh supplies of anti-tank missiles, for the country to defend itself against Russian aggression.
Updating MPs on the Ukraine war in the Commons, he told MPs that the UK has delivered 3,615 anti-tank (NLAW) weapons and will soon be supplying a "small consignment" of Javelin anti-tank missiles.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has told the BBC that he is convinced Ukraine can win its war with Russia. He could not say how long the conflict would last, but insisted that Ukraine's defeat was not inevitable. Mr Blinken praised the "extraordinary resilience" of the Ukrainian people. "If it's the intention of Moscow to try somehow to topple the government and install its own puppet regime, 45 million Ukrainians are going to reject that one way or the other," he said.
The war has already not gone as Russian President Vladimir Putin might have planned, he added.
Stiff resistance by Ukrainian forces continued to hamper Russian advances across the country.
Yesterday US President Joe Biden signed a massive spending bill into law that includes $13.6 billion in new aid to Ukraine, saying during a signing ceremony that the new assistance shows the United States is “moving urgently to further augment the support to the brave people of Ukraine as they defend their country.”
European Council
European Council believed if Russia succeeded in conquering Ukraine, Putin will continue to invade Poland and other EU countries bordering Russia. As a result, the prime ministers of Poland, Czech Republic, and Slovenia were set to meet with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky and Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal in the country’s embattled capital Kyiv yesterday, Tuesday (15 March).
The surprise visit, meant as a show of solidarity with Ukraine, comes amid deadly Russian strikes on the Ukrainian capital, which has nearly been encircled by Moscow troops, and as Russia and Ukraine are due to resume talks to end the nearly three-week war.
According to an official announcement by the Polish government office, the trip was organised in agreement with European Council President Charles Michel and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
“The purpose of the visit is to confirm the unequivocal support of the entire EU for the sovereignty and independence of Ukraine and to present a broad package of support for the Ukrainian state and society,” the statement said.
Russia's 40-mile convoy has stalled on its way to Kyiv.
Logistics problems are stalling a massive Russian convoy that's pushing its way toward Kyiv, according to a senior U.S. defense official. The convoy, which has been measured as stretching for 40 miles, is apparently being hampered by fuel and food shortages.
The news comes as Russia continues to concentrate attacks on the large Ukrainian cities of Kyiv and Kharkiv. As night fell on Ukraine on Tuesday, Russia's large convoy was still about 18 miles north of Kyiv — representing little or no change from Monday, the official said. The official added that some elements within the military column are "literally out of gas" and having difficulty feeding their troops.
Hungry Russian soldiers cannot fight!!!

Beside Russia, US is losing out as well! Have you notice how OPEC is snubbing US! OPEC may even switch to Yuan! That's basically killing US itself if this materialize!

@journeyone, don’t think Kyiv is surrounded and cut off. Leaders from Czech, Slovenia and Poland went for a day tour to Kyiv along with their countries press to document themselves the brutality of Putin’s army

Because of Donbass, Putin found an excuse. How about Crimea? Also caused by Donbass?
2022-03-18 11:21
Agreed.
The war was caused by USA. Many made tons of $$ were made by the Congress men from it.
See Jesse Watters Congress saw this as a gold rush -google for it.
The possible missiles encirclement and the biological lab at Russia's door step provoked Russia who saw the West step by step encroachment and promised not to expand an inch over when they got Russia to agree to let the two split Germany reunited.
Russia may have lost something but they make a lot of $$ from the Oil and gas they have produced.

KYY has been fed by all news from the West. Check from the other side of the world. Propaganda in the West has created false expectations of Ukrainian success. Russia has largely achieved its objective of neutralising the Ukrainian military, but Western governments mistakenly believe the deliberate progress designed to avoid civilian casualties reflects weakness of the Russian. Russian President has given strict orders from outset to avoid civilian casualties and extensive property damage. The Ukrainian units still active but completely surrounded, cut off and isolated in various towns and cities.

Looks like Russia will divide Ukraine into half. Russia will march to Israel with Iran and Turkey. If you understand hook in the jaw.

According to US, Russia has the most nuclear weapons in the world. Russia has 1,080 supersonic missiles which can travel 5 times faster than the speed of sound. Yesterday Russia fired the first supersonic missile to hit a Ukrainian military target. Russia has already bombed out more than 600 buildings, almost all the Ukrainian military bases and 48 schools etc. Russia is bound to win and Ukraine is bound to lose the war.
