The only obvious thing is that trump is a moron who wants to steal the horses from a German bicycle.

His threat to leave russia to do "whatever the h.e.l.l. they want" with Germany is an empty threat that only means something to you and his brainwashed cult followers who have a distant relationship with basic logic.

Moreover, the only reason he suddenly switched 180 degrees and said the nonsense about Biden selling Ukraine to putin is because putin said Biden is better, bruising his yuuuge orange ego. Because his yuuuuge orange ego is all that matters to him

Your logic on this topic has always been based on the statements of Trump, putin, Biden. You have always written that Putin will support Trump. Now there are holes in your logic. Today putin began to support Biden. For me this is logical, Biden did a lot to support the Russian Na.zis.
As for Trump�s statements, as our German colleagues write, this year Germany �unexpectedly� decided to increase its defense spending. Just after Trump directly told Germany what awaits her.
Trump, even without being president, is much more effective than Biden.

Zero Talent, you democrat fans have big problems now. Your main argument against Trump was based on the assumption that putin and the Russians support him. Now you no longer have this argument. 
putin has publicly stated that he supports Biden. 

I can only commiserate you and recommend that you turn on logic and analytics, and not be based on what the Russians say or do. 

Oh Wilm, how you started singing , you changed your shoes on the fly! 
You all wrote in this thread that putin only supports Trump!

Okay, I won't troll you. I think there are three different options.
1. Trump is putin�s friend and therefore Putin is knocking out the argument from the Democrats that he supports him.
2. putin really supports Biden because Biden is pursuing very weak and bad policies.
3. putin interferes in US elections for the purpose of sabotage.

What you fail to realize is that your idol (the orange moron) made that 180-degree U-turn only because he is dumb enough to believe that putin said the truth when he declared that he likes Biden more than him.

For Biden and the rest of the world this means nothing, while for the orange moron, his whole world collapsed when putin offended his ego.

This only proves trump's narcissism and his ridiculously immature behavior.

� Avdiivka is definitely falling and after that Slavyansk and Kramatorsk can expect very hot spring�

But only exactly 2 years later, Germany finally decided to increase spending, because it knows Trump can win.

It was decided to do so in June 2022. Read the articles I linked to. Your browser should be able to translate it to English or another language you might fancy.

If you are right (which is naturally not the case) and your bureaucracy has been reacting to Scholz�s words for 2 years.

Perhaps it is different in your country, but the German bureaucracy does not react to a chancelors words, but only to changes in the law. And the Sonderverm�gen was formally decided upon in June 2022. It even required an addition to our constitution,; considering that, this was really quick.

And then it is totally normal that it takes some time to spend the money, because there are laws how this has to be done, in order to ensure that you end up with the stuff you really need, at reasonable prices and without corruption.

More than 8 Billion Euro from the Sonderverm�gen has already been spent in 2023. That already lead to an increase in the military spending compared to the GDP; just not enough to crack the 2% threshold. This will happen this year.

I can give you 100%, Russian orcs will occupy Germany in a few days.

This seems quite unlikely, considering that orcs only exist in fantasy strories, not the real world.

As for the real world Russian army: It has shown in the Ukraine that it's ability to conduct quick maneuver warfare is rather limited, so I do not think they will show up near Berlin any time soon.

As for Trump�s statements, as our German colleagues write, this year Germany �unexpectedly� decided to increase its defense spending.

There is nothing unexpected about this. It is the direct result of additional funds of 100 Billion Euros provided to spend on the Bundeswehr, the German armed forces, over several years to bring it up to scratch. It is a so called "Sonderverm�gen", which allows to circumvent the strict German anti-debt laws.

It was announced on February 27 2022, shortly after the Russian invasion into the Ukraine, in a famous speech by Chancelor Olaf Scholz (the Zeitenwende Speech) and formally decided on in June 2022.

It just took some time for the military bureaucracy to actually start spending the money.

Quote from: stoker2014 on February 15, 2024, 14:26

Just after Trump directly told Germany what awaits her.

There is no way this could possibly have had any effect whatsoever on military spending so quickly.

Nice attempt at saving face on your part. I think you will come up with many fantastic stories. But it�s your right, compose.
As for your Scholz, his words are worthless. He sang beautiful songs 2 years ago, but did nothing. All democrat supporters sing false songs. But only exactly 2 years later, Germany finally decided to increase spending, because it knows Trump can win.

Everything you write here about German politics is, as always, fictitious and without facts.
The development was exactly as Big Toe described it.
You are simply wrong, as always when it comes to complex issues.

Ok. The main thing is that Germany does what Trump wants. 

Explaining complex things in simple words: Situation in Avdiivka, global security agenda, U.S. assistance

The Center for Strategic Communication and Information Security pursues efforts to provide a brief explanation to foreign audiences on the current topics of particular interest as regards Ukraine.
SITUATION IN AVDIIVKA

The situation in Avdiivka is complicated, but controlled. Fierce battles are taking place within the city limits. Ukrainian troops use all available forces and means to deter the enemy.
There is a planned reinforcement of units, an additional resource of ammunition and other weapons is allocated.
Troops are manoeuvred in the most dangerous areas. Field commanders know their task and perform it in accordance with the plan of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
New positions have been prepared and work continues on the construction of fortifications, taking into account all possible scenarios. We value every piece of Ukrainian land, while our highest value and priority is the preservation of the lives of Ukrainian defenders.
The defence of Avdiivka has been going on since 2014; over the past seven months, the city has been repelling constant enemy assaults. Huge losses of Russian troops near Avdiivka deplete the potential of the aggressor.

I watch news on US TV channels. Words like Ukraine and Israel are not spoken. There is no news about Ukraine.. US Democrats are pursuing a policy of isolationism. Democrats are cowards and criminals. A US citizen has the opinion that nothing bad is happening in the world, and that the bas.tard Biden has solved all the issues. The fact that every day the Russians bomb Ukraine with bombs, missiles and destroy cities is no longer covered on US TV channels. This is how an artificial picture of a successful Democrat and a bas.tard Biden is created before the election.
US journalists are political prostitutes who only cover events that the Democrats allow them to cover.
If the Democrats win the elections, the United States will very soon turn into an island that will not have allies anywhere in the world. I am 100% sure that when the Russians begin to occupy EU countries, the US army under President Biden will cowardly flee from Europe. Just like she cowardly fled from Afghanistan. Afghanistan was a rehearsal.
Yes, some people will say that there are newspapers, but the majority of people do not read newspapers, but only watch TV.

There is such a newspaper as the New York Times. This newspaper often publishes Russian propaganda and disinformation. This newspaper is now supporting Biden. This means that putin really only wants to support Biden.
Yes, Democratic supporters will support Biden even when it becomes clear to everyone that putin also supports him. Even now the Democrats are lying and not admitting the obvious.
Look at this ass.hole Biden, how old he is, how he walks, how he talks. He can no longer even physiologically rule the country. He is 81 years old and looks very bad. Who nominates such old people for president?

Do you really beleive in this numbers�?! Can you please at least show proofs of 100000 corpses�?! People im shopping malls can�t be count as soldieres�

Only Russian trolls write such questions. You can continue to believe Russian propaganda.

So  half a million Russians have been killed or out of their army potential�?! Do you understand how many people is that�?! If that�s true, you can at least multiply that number with 3 for Ukrainian casulties�.is it worth�?!

1. The losses of the attacking army are 5 times greater than the losses of the defending army. Ukraine is mostly on the defensive.
2. Russian orcs are mostly alcoholics, drug addicts, and prisoners, which means the loss ratio is even greater.
3. The statistics are actually underestimated by 1.5 times (because they are official and do not take into account many things). I think the actual number of Russian losses is around 600 thousand people. But this is very little 600 thousand!
4. Yes, Ukrainian soldiers are also dying. Didn't you know there was a war going on? Look how many were killed in World War II, for example.
5. If Ukraine receives the necessary modern weapons, the liquidation of Russians will be in even greater numbers, and Ukraine�s losses will be 10 times less.

The Russians kill a lot of civilians in Ukraine, the losses of soldiers are not that great. The Russians are bombing cities and shooting people. Russians are beasts who killed millions of Ukrainians in the 20th century (Holodomor).

trucic, I don't need to believe or not believe. I operate with facts. I don�t write anything that people who are aware of the situation and understand military affairs don�t know.
