Why Ukraine is stepping up its efforts to build border fortifications | DW News
Ukraine has welcomed a vote by US lawmakers to resume urgently needed military assistance. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says the 61 billion dollar aid package gives his troops a real chance at victory on the battlefield.
Part of what Zelenskyy will use these American funds for, is fortifying Ukraine's borders. Drone technology has dramatically changed the battle for the skies and sea but on Ukraine's land border with Russia, the country's armed forces are focused on a far more traditional form of defense against a looming Russian offensive.

What is astonishing is that Russia currently holds exactly the places that were intended for Russia on this map. Odessa was not intended for Russia on this map. Probably a reason why they haven't taken Odessa yet. The pipeline would then go from Odessa and towards Poland. This area (yellow) should belong to the West. The areas that Blackrock had currently purchased were marked in orange. And again, this map was from 2006

1. They used much, much bigger bombs/mines in ww1 to try and do the same thing, it doesn't work that good, 2. Defense in depth is the norm and means breaking any single line is ineffective. 3. When one line is broken, a new line set up behind the other 2 or 3 existing lines. So long as Russia is unable to make any rapid advance (which they haven't in nearly 2 years now), any gain in ground will be measured in meters, no kilometers.

Yes, I'm aware of the plan to build the Baltic Defence Line, which will be a super-professional defensive line, but they say that will take ten years to build. The Baltic countries need something like that NOW, not tomorrow. Tomorrow, the enemy might be ready to move in.

Trump also is a showman, while Roman emperors ended up realizing that the emperor is an actor (Nero playing on the scene, Commodus in the amphitheater, Marcus Aurelius literally saying it as a philosopher.) - Putin politics is nothing but theater.

Western people laughed at Russian Fortifications, and now they believed in Fortification. They made jokes about Dragon teeth and said Dragon teeth have dentists.
Ukraine had a president that _acting in good faith and in the best interests of the nation_ launched it on a course of solid growth and stability. This leader devoted much effort towards improving and prospering his country. People wished to be _entertained_ and sent him packing, voting for a _comedian_ who promptly manoeuvred to deplete the nation off its citizens so that he might turn this land¹ into a colony.² He staged a tragedy. No one is laughing. Their tombstone is inscribed with these words, sublime, yet profound: _They took the bait..._ _...and here defeated the folly of their delusion._ ¹ Ukraine: Land of milk and honey. _The plenty of game and fish, the innumerable bee-hives, deposited in the hollows of old trees and in the cavities of rocks, and forming even in that rude age a valuable branch of commerce, the size of the cattle, the temperature of the air, the aptness of the soil for every species of grain, and the luxuriancy of the vegetation..._ (A.D. 244 during the reign of Emperor Philip). ² The comedian’s objective: Assuming success, use of the land (that was _not_ promised to Ukrainians) is halted, housing prices skyrocket beyond reach with rent absorbing incomes, shunting the lifetime earnings of residents directly into the pockets of the chosen few, who, _laughing_ all the way to the bank, that without exerting any effort become rich beyond belief. After a lifetime of hard work citizens own nothing and die homeless on the street.

Another example was that under the houses of parliament there was a factory producing navigation equipment that no one knew was there until years later after the war.

@@Paul-yh8km I'm not sure about UK in WWII and how many German spies were in UK, but right now in Ukraine there are plenty sleeping agents and just soviet-lovers. They send information to their Russian leads on daily basics through different sources. Messengers, social networks, emails etc. It is extremely hard for military personnel to gather. Each month we have such news when missiles hit the funeral ceremony and killed 20+ people including soldiers, rocket hit hotel with drone makers conference, rocket hit restaurant with officers from different departments, etc. It is especially hard to control people movement and occupation right now because war and mass people migration. So hired Soviet lover from East could easily live in some small town in other part of the country constantly sending sensitivite data to Russians. It is a pity and shame
victory lol
Ukraine will get 1990 borders 😂😂😂😂😂😂
You need to know.Mister Zelenski Afghanistan never fight for democracy.

@@SelfProclaimedEmperor Where do you get this from? That's just not true. It's fantastic that the US is back, but total aid from the EU surpassed total aid from the US last year. The EU basically funds the entire Ukrainian government. We (the US) don't transfer much money to Ukraine, but nobody has the arms stockpiles we do. Our aid is critical for that reason, at least until Europe's munitions factories come online next year. We can be proud of our contribution, but let's not pretend our allies aren't doing their part. They are in fact doing more, even much more if we consider that transferring money out of the country hurts their economies, whereas what we do is barely noticable to us, because almost all our money stays in the US and just funds our manufacturing base.
here is another joke

Speaking of trolls, where are all the "slava ukraini" trolls flooding the comment section(s), did they decide to go somewhere else after the failed counteroffensive or what has happened to them..?
