In storage is basically a scrap yard - the combat vehicles could be used, but would be in a poor material condition and have the equipment they were parked up with. If you think the armour they using now is having a tough time - imagine a tank with a huge IR searchlight for its night fighting! A soldier with night vision goggles would just see the huge light at night and shoot at it....

The thing is the regressive right have had their patriotism weaponised against them but they're generally just too stupid to realise. I mean, in the same breath Chris is saying you must be an immigrant for criticising the Govt and like the other muppet saying that you hate your country, he posts things like this
Which apart from the mentally casual attitude to nuclear war
has his own oft cited criticisms of the west, which includes us and has been explicitly levelled at the UK by him many times before. But the complete lack of self awareness means that he thinks his criticism is born from patriotism not from being an immigrant.In the same way he posts things that shows he admires Putin, then posts that people who admire Putin probably come from a broken home with no strong father figure, the lack of self awareness is hilarious

Not if that’s in the peace agreement.
If it wasn’t for the waste of life the Russian loses would be comical from a once ‘super power’.

A complete waste of life considering he could have made this decision before the invasion, but at least it would give Russia an easy get out. They have too few forces left to stop anyone else joining nato at least.
Looking at the potential arms sales following this, the US must be laughing.
NATO membership should not be up for debate. It's every country's sovereign right to join military partnerships. If Ukraine puts that on the table and Putin takes it, he's got all he wants.
Fast-track Ukraine into the EU, then NATO. That's got to be the priority once this war is over.

"I rely on the opinion of our negotiators. They say that negotiations have not been easy for apparent reasons but still there is certain hope for reaching a compromise," Lavrov said in an interview with the RBC channel.

I was wondering if/when Ukraine would launch a counter attack, they have a lot of reservists many out of which nearly 200,000 of them having had combat experience and it's the one area where Ukraine does have a slight advantage over Russia. Tbh I honest though I didn't think they would be able to deploy the this quickly though.
I guess the difference is we don't intentionally target civilian areas as military targets but if civilians are in our way of a military objective we won't let it stop us, we'll just say sorry afterwards and call them collateral damage.
So when it comes to war, it's not that we're the good guys just lesser bad guys than the others....mostly.
Along the lines of what I was thinking, they've made Russia seem utterly irrelevant.Yeah, with Russia at the bottom, surely they understand this
At least we (UK) seem to be pretty damn good at avoiding civilian casualties. The US are a different matter but they also have a habit of hitting their allies...

Not entirely true though is it. See: Middle East.
r4today truss says she's made it her priority to get Nazanine released & our iran debt repayed ! it will be another one of her greatest deals, in her own mind.
stupid women forgets nazanine was their partially because of **** Boris
- still we'll see if boris gets some oil ... even if nuclear capability is apparently weeks away in iran (guess the israelis don't need oil though ??)
I'd hate to play poker with this Lavrov, the way he can keep a straight face when saying this **** is pro level....Freedom of Speech is important, as you're arresting protesters back at home...
