In the case of shells, the problem isn’t money, it’s lack of production capacity. Even the mighty USA, owner of the largest military-industrial complex in the world, can only produce 28,000 rounds of 155mm per month – less than 10pc of what Ukraine needs – and this with its factories on 24-hour operation.
Maybe libs should read this.
Who am I kidding, they’ll still call anything that says the west isn’t the best Russian propaganda or whatever.
amazing how all the mainstream western media is full of Russian propaganda all of a sudden :)
The welfare-addicted West
The poor are strangers even in their own country
Always were.
a right removed if I’ve ever seen one
Funny, I know some folks who legit think that
I mean the EU is pretty straightforward about their members having to do austerity policies the next years. I think Belgium has to cut like 30+ billion euro. Our public systems are already falling apart due to lack of funds. I expect a mass call to privatisation across the entire EU in the coming years. US 2.0.
That’s right, Europeans will finally get to enjoy the same kinds of freedoms US workers have been enjoying.
Luckily unions are still a thing
Once upon a time we had unions here too.
Indeed, people are going to be rediscovering the reasons workers need collective bargaining in a hurry.
How much more you reckon before we finally accept we need to divest from the yanks?
European countries don’t really get to choose. It’s a blood pact they signed when they chose to be American proxies against the barbaric asiatics rather seeking peaceful coexistence and redevlopment after WW2.
“It’s for Ukraine guys, you wouldn’t want thet ebil orcs to win would you”
Read the headline as “warfare addicted” and thought “hey that’s unusually honest”
lol
Same people will tell you the EU is not at war with Russia.
is militarised austerity edible?
Some inject it right into their veins, dunno if that counts
What was that slogan from back in the day? “Cannons instead of butter”
Hmm…
lol people are starting to catch on
Not just any people, Telegraph readers
you know the narrative is collapsing when…
magnifico
Well, the empire has got to bleed itself somehow
Found a new emoji.
LMFAO “while Russia’s might grows” bro is delusional.
Why do we even bother talking to these people… like this one is clearly not in lemmygrad on good faith
Because they’re bots and a bot administrator whose full time job is to shill for dictatorships.
Did you just call yourself a bot?
Looks like a funny Freudian slip from that smug liberal
unaware commenter calls others unaware… doesn’t see the irony
The only people who are delusional are the ones who don’t understand how powerful Russian army has become over the past two years. Maybe educate yourself by reading what people with a clue have to say on the subject https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/attritional-art-war-lessons-russian-war-ukraine
They can’t even win against a small nation like Ukraine after a drawn out 2 year long war.
What do you consider a big nation, mate?
I think Ukraine’s 36 Million compared to Russia’s 147 Million puts things pretty well into perspective.
Alright, so not so much small as smaller than Russia. Of course that means there are only 10 or so nations that aren’t small. How absurd it is then for NATO to be losing to tiny Russia…
Ukraine isn’t a part of NATO, lol. If they were, the USA would be on Russia Shores from the Pacific, and Russia would be invaded by the other 5 NATO members who share a border with them at a minimum, potentially including Turkiye from across the Sea who alone have a top 10 standing for military and they have already backed Ukraine’s membership approval.
I’m talking about the article. The United Kingdom isn’t Ukraine, and yet they’re talking about how they, the rest of NATO and Ukraine are losing to Russia at arms production.
Though the lessons translate to a hot war too. If you don’t have bombs to lob, you have to stop lobbing bombs.
