Re: Ukraine war thread
Poland just refused to send Patriot missile batteries to the Middle East.
Remember why.
In summer 2025 more than 20 Russian drones violated Polish airspace.
Trump’s response: it was probably a mistake.
No condemnation. No consequences. No support for a NATO ally whose sovereign airspace was violated by the country helping Iran kill Americans.

^^ The backlash from the realization that the F-35 software and parts could be held did damage, this will KILL the relationship.

Re: Ukraine war thread
Baltic Sea Oil Terminal Strikes: Ukraine has been systematically targeting Russia's major oil export terminals at Primorsk and Ust-Luga every 48 hours (0:03-0:31). These strikes have knocked roughly 40% of Russia's total oil export capacity offline, with repairs estimated to take 18-24 months (2:36-2:55).
Deep Strikes into Russia: Ukraine successfully struck a petrochemical plant in Tatarstan (1,300 km from the border), causing massive damage (4:24-5:18). Additionally, Ukraine continues to hunt Russian air defense systems like the S-400, Buk M2, and Tor (6:43-7:35).
Frontline Stagnation: Russia's spring offensive is stalled against Ukraine's defenses. Prominent Russian military bloggers have publicly criticized the Russian military's failure to adapt to Ukraine's technical superiority and the loss of Starlink capabilities (7:39-10:55).
Geopolitical Moves: President Zelenskyy has signed historic 10-year defense agreements with Gulf States, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar (22:38-23:45). Ukraine is also offering its expertise to help unblock the Strait of Hormuz following its success in the Black Sea (24:55-25:42).
US and Iran Context: The video criticizes Donald Trump's handling of the conflict with Iran, labeling the situation an economic and strategic disaster that has caused oil prices to surge and left US bases vulnerable
