Yes, but you have copied the way Israel reacts to critics: everybody doubting what you are saying about Ukraine's status quo automatically in your world is pro-Russian. You cannot bare the possibility that people have other opinions in between.

If anything, Ukraine informs my opinion about Israel. I acknowledged that you have an opinion. If that's not good enough, oh well.

Why should I change that? I do get that you do not tolerate any opinion which is not so much in favor for the outcomings. However this is my opinion, and unless proven otherwise I will stick with it, I will for sure not change it because you are just too simple minded to get the differences.

I dislike this opinion and have said just as much.

Do your research before embarassing yourself, this is Article II of the NPT:

"Each non-nuclear-weapon State Party to the Treaty undertakes not to receive the transfer from any transferor whatsoever of nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices or of control over such weapons or explosive devices directly, or indirectly; not to manufacture or otherwise acquire nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices; and not to seek or receive any assistance in the manufacture of nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices."

Ukraine agreed to this agreement due to the Budapest Memorandum in 1994. So you lied about that.

The NPT was signed by the soviet union while Ukraine and most of Eastern Europe remained under soviet occupation post WWII. Ukraine is not a signatory of this agreement. When the soviet union collapsed, Ukraine inherted the world's third largest armorment of nuclear weapons and agreed to surrender them in the interest of peace. This was when the signed the Budapest Memorandum. In exchange for surrending their nuclear weapons, russia, America, and Britian agreed to certain terms in reguard to insuring the security of Ukraine. When russia invaded Ukraine, they arguably voided the Budapest Memorandum. It no longer applies to Ukraine.

The frontline situation in Sumy is stablizing for Ukraine. The AFU has liberated Andriivka and is currently pushing toward Yunakivka and the russian boarder. Ukraine has been destroying russian military aircraft at a great success rate. Ukrainian drones continue hiting moscow and it's most exspensive assets at will, without facing significant challenges from russian air defense, which they also destory no problem. Basically, russia can kiss anything with wings that flys goodbye. Refined oil. Ya, Ukraines been wrecking that for russia also. The russian economy is eating itself alive and teeters on the brink of collapse. Estonia has deployed troops to Narva. The rest of Europe is slowly comming to the realalization that the Baltics have always been right about russia and the Americans are getting sick of putin's bullshit. Even putin is starting to realize that russia can't keep the war up much longer, as he's starting to talk about reducing miltary spending . . . publicly. It's all there if you follow the conflict at all. Ukraine is holding up and holding on.

Really. It's all there. But don't trust me. Go find out yourself.

Slava Ukraini! Heroiam slava!

Pete Fucksmith, err Hegseth recently halted some deliveries of weapons and ammunitation to Ukraine amid concerns over US stockpile 6 days ago.

As it turns out now Hegseth was lying - there is no shortage, which could threaten America's security.

Hegseth halted weapons for Ukraine despite military analysis that the aid wouldn’t jeopardize U.S. readiness

The move blindsided the State Department, Ukraine, European allies and members of Congress, who demanded an explanation from the Pentagon.

Coming soon: Ukraine hitting Moscow and St. Petersburg with American weapons?

Two people familiar with the conversation between Trump and Zelenskyy [at 4th of July] said the US president had asked his Ukrainian counterpart whether he could hit military targets deep inside Russia if he provided weapons capable of doing so.

“Volodymyr, can you hit Moscow? . . . Can you hit St Petersburg too?” Trump asked on the call, according to the people. They said Zelenskyy replied: “Absolutely. We can if you give us the weapons.”

Trump signalled his backing for the idea, describing the strategy as intended to “make them [Russians] feel the pain” and force the Kremlin to the negotiating table, according to the two people briefed on the call. A western official, who had been informed of the call, said the conversation reflected a growing desire among Ukraine’s western partners to supply long-range weapons capable of “bringing the war to Muscovites” — a sentiment echoed privately by American officials in recent weeks. The White House and Ukraine’s presidential office did not respond to requests for comment.

France and Italy will not take part in a new NATO-led initiative to finance the delivery of U.S. weapons to Ukraine, Politico and La Stampa reported on July 16, citing undisclosed government officials in both countries.

Despite being a long-standing supporter of Ukraine, France has opted out of the plan, which was unveiled during U.S. President Donald Trump's meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Washington on July 14.

Under this scheme, NATO will purchase advanced arms from the U.S., including air defense systems, and deliver some of them to Ukraine.

According to two French officials, France declined to join the plan because of President Emmanuel Macron's push for European nations to strengthen their own defense industries by purchasing domestically produced arms.

France is also contending with budget constraints and rising defense spending targets amid broader economic pressures, Politico wrote.

Italy, meanwhile, has taken a similar position. According to La Stampa, Italian officials ruled out direct purchases of U.S. weapons, citing fiscal limitations and the country's focus on different technological systems, such as the Italian-French-made SAMP/T air defense system already supplied to Ukraine.

Italian Defense Ministry sources stressed that the decision should not be seen as a lack of support for Ukraine, but rather as a call to explore alternative ways to contribute to the broader effort.

According to La Stampa, Italy is currently assessing a NATO request to support the logistical transport of U.S.-supplied weapons to Ukraine — whether by air, rail, or sea — and has signaled it will not "shy away" from contributing. The specific nature and scale of Italy’s commitment have yet to be determined.

Commenting on the NATO-U.S. weapons funding plan, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski argued that the cost of arming Ukraine should not fall on European taxpayers but be covered by Russia's frozen assets instead.
