Members phkrause Posted March 13 Author Members Share Posted March 13 Putin warns again that Russia is ready to use nuclear weapons if its sovereignty is threatened Speaking in an interview with Russian state television released early Wednesday, President Vladimir Putin said that Russia is ready to use nuclear weapons if its sovereignty or independence is threatened. Read more. Key developments: Putin’s statement was another blunt warning to the West ahead of a presidential vote this week in which he’s all but certain to win another six-year term. Asked in the interview if he has ever considered using battlefield nuclear weapons in Ukraine, Putin responded that there has been no need for that. He also described U.S. President Joe Biden as a veteran politician who fully understands possible dangers of escalation, and said that he doesn’t think that the world is heading to a nuclear war. This isn’t the first time that Putin has warned about possible nuclear escalation. The Russian leader has repeatedly talked about his readiness to use nuclear weapons since invading Ukraine in February 2022. The most recent such threat came in his state-of-the-nation address last month, when he warned the West that deepening its involvement in the fighting in Ukraine would risk a nuclear war.

Members phkrause Posted March 25 Author Members Share Posted March 25 Putin, with a dent in his tough image, is trying to use the concert hall attack to rally support for Ukraine war The attack on a Moscow-area concert hall that killed hundreds has dealt a blow to President Vladimir Putin's image as a tough guy who is able to defend Russia from all threats. It came less than a week after a Kremlin-orchestrated election victory gave him six more years in power. Read more. Key points: Putin quickly sought to use the attack to serve his political goals. Appearing on TV on Saturday, hours after the attack, Putin alleged a link between the gunmen and Ukraine, saying the assailants planned to flee there. He made no mention of the Islamic State group, which claimed responsibility, or of Kyiv’s denial of involvement. Putin’s statement signaled an apparent intention to escalate the war and tighten a political crackdown at home. Kremlin critics assailed Putin for focusing Russia’s massive police and security services on stifling political opponents, human rights groups and LGBTQ+ activists, while leaving the country unprotected from threats by armed extremists. If Putin follows up by directly blaming Ukraine for the attack, he will likely use it as justification for even fiercer strikes. Hours before Friday’s bloodshed, the Russian military unleashed a barrage on Ukraine’s energy system, crippling its largest hydroelectric plant and leaving over 1 million people without power. More strikes followed over the weekend.

Members phkrause Posted April 11 Author Members Share Posted April 11 Ukraine’s parliament passes a controversial law to boost conscripts and fill army ranks The law, passed on Thursday, will govern how the country recruits new conscripts, following months of delay and after thousands of amendments were submitted to water down the initial draft. Read more. Why this matters: Exhausted soldiers, on the frontlines since the start of the invasion, have had no means to rotate out for rest, while many thousands of Ukrainian men continue to evade the draft. Ukraine’s growing shortages of infantry and ammunition have helped give Russia the battlefield upper hand, while Russia’s own problems with manpower and planning have so far prevented it from taking full advantage of its edge. The law is expected to be unpopular. Lawmakers dragged their feet for months over the law, which was spurred by a request from the military command. Former army Commander Valerii Zaluzhny had said Ukraine needed up to 500,000 new recruits to boost army ranks.

Members phkrause Posted April 21 Author Members Share Posted April 21 🇺🇦 Ukraine's exhausted army Data: Institute for the Study of War and AEI's Critical Threats Project. Map: Axios Visuals The Pentagon is preparing to rush critical ammunition and air defenses to Ukraine in the coming days, delivering a lifeline to frontline forces battered by Russian bombs and demoralized by Congress' failure to act. Why it matters: Eight months after President Biden first requested billions of dollars in new funding for Ukraine, the House finally is on the verge of passing a foreign aid package today, Axios' Zachary Basu writes. The delay has dealt a massive setback to Kyiv's war effort. But experts say it's not too late to turn the tide. "It will give the Ukrainians time and resources to refit, retrain, rearm and refresh army units in preparation for a counteroffensive later this year or early next," former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor told Axios. With Congress set to pass $61 billion in funding for Ukraine today, the Pentagon says it plans to mobilize "within days" to transfer weapon stockpiles that have been sitting in Europe for months. Air defenses, in particular, can't arrive soon enough: Russia has ramped up assaults on Ukraine's energy infrastructure and continues to terrorize Ukrainian cities with missile strikes. Go deeper.

Members phkrause Posted 16 hours ago Author Members Share Posted 16 hours ago Ukraine pulls US-provided Abrams tanks from the front lines over Russian drone threats Ukraine has sidelined U.S.-provided Abrams M1A1 battle tanks for now in its fight against Russia, according to two U.S. military officials who spoke to The Associated Press. Read more. Why this matters: The U.S. agreed to send 31 Abrams to Ukraine in January 2023 after an aggressive monthslong campaign by Kyiv arguing that the tanks, which cost about $10 million apiece, were vital to its ability to breach Russian lines. But the battlefield has changed substantially since then: Ukraine has only employed them in a limited fashion and has not made combined arms warfare part of its operations. While drones are a significant threat, the Ukrainians have not adopted tactics that could have made the tanks more effective, one U.S. defense official said. The U.S. is expected to announce Friday that it will also provide about $6 billion in long-term military aid to Ukraine, U.S. officials said, adding that it will include much sought-after munitions for Patriot air defense systems. The U.S. also confirmed for the first time that it is providing long-range ballistic missiles known as ATACMs, which allow Ukraine to strike deep into Russian-occupied areas. For now, the tanks have been moved from the front lines, and the U.S. will work with the Ukrainians to reset tactics, said Joint Chiefs of Staff Vice Chairman Adm. Christopher Grady and a defense official who confirmed the move on the condition of anonymity. RELATED COVERAGE ➤ The US is now allowed to seize Russian state assets. How would that work?
