    Quoted: “[D]espite [President Zelensky’s] probable willingness to achieve a political settlement for the crisis with Russia, Zelensky is not allowed to do so. Just after he indicated his readiness to talk with Russia, on 25 February, the European Union decided two days later to provide €450M in arms to Ukraine. The same happened in March. As soon as Zelensky indicated he wanted to have talks with Vladimir Putin on 21 March, the European Union decided to double its military aid to €1 billion on 23 March. End of March, Zelensky made an interesting offer that was retracted shortly after.”

    I fucking wish Donbass is annexed and the war ends…

      Sadly there’s a probability if the rest of the Ukraine doesn’t comes to term with it. They’ll raze it like grozny

      It’s actually amazing how this whole machine still holds on despite cracks forming all over it. Gotta watch and learn, this experience might come in handy. We clearly lack the picture of the logistical situation and the real picture of how things work out.

    Interesting read and analysis. I figured they’d be running low soon but I didn’t expect it this quickly.

    Oof, its bad.

    At 21 years old, Samoylov, an officer from the Odessa military academy, finds himself managing 130 conscripts, often twice his age. “It’s my first war. I was supposed to graduate in four months, but they sent me here,” says the baby-faced officer with a short black beard.

      Holy-moly. That sounds like me trying to be officer. In a fucking Arma unit, not in real life. That poor guy literally got the worst shit. What’s more, nazis will most likely blame their own poor fellas like this guy for their losses and some of the officers and soldiers will definitely get rolled Reich-style.
