@@washuneluvhada7616 And another war crime

Because refineries are legitimate military target, while hitting power plants affects mainly civilians, deprives them of electricity and drinking water... seriously it's not that hard to figure out the difference.

So hitting refineries does not leave people without energy produced by the refineries?

@@Moepedi Refinery produces fuel, not energy. Russia still has plenty of fuel for civilian needs, it can choose what it will used the fuel for... people or their invasion. Ukraine doesn't have that luxury when Russia destroys a major power plant that provides electricity for millions of people. Sigh... why do I have to explain such rudimentary things.

If they attack Russian territory such as airports and other things, that would probably be the end for Ukraine, because Russia always retaliates to such attacks by Ukraine, only that the media does not write about when Russia retaliates, because then it turns out, Ukraine attacks something, and the Russians nothing.

Remember russia's invasion was all masked by an "excercise" on the border. Im not sure Ukraine new this was going to happen. F Russia, Russia will forever be hated by everyone..

​@@naturalnonsensethe plane will unleash the glade bombs 80 kilometers away from the front line they glide to their targets, last when Ukraine tried to move Patriots air defense systems next to the battle front to increase their range the Patriots ended up being targeted, Ukraine lost two batteries in that incident which angered the Germans who had provided those defenses systems. They were left with no options besides taking them back in rear where they will be out of range then the Russians will rain their glide bombs freely. Ukraine has long lost this war. It's taking long for the Verimerk that they have lost because of this handouts from Uncle Sam and him Nato gang

@@naturalnonsense yo do realize that russia are launching these glide bombs well outside said airdefense range from insanely high up and in russian terretory right?

@@powerkingez9682you might have confused them with long range missiles. Those are indeed launched from the Caspian and Black seas, outside of anti-air range, hence only missiles themselves can be intercepted. Planes carrying FABs, however, are flown to launch sites located much closer to the frontline, and several Su’s got downed by Patriots previously, decreasing frequency of FAB attacks significantly.

Who to ?

No. Funding Ukraine is a bottomless pit.

Unfortunately, no refinery remained in Ukraine to strike. So Russia targeted industrial production by cutting the electricity. Given the previous year's attack, they had a good opportunity to study and map all of Ukraine's power grid and now know which are the critical ones exactly.

Lol 😅

No. They don't receive money. The money is spent locally, and they get supplies.

Nobody wants to fight the comedian's war

But sporting fixtures are carrying on as usual

The funny thing is that US criticized Ukraine for striking Russia's oil refineries with its own weapons. It's as if US doesn't want Ukraine to win decisively. Just keep the war going as long as possible, profit from it till it gets to a point when there's a total stalemate then US withdraws 😂

​@@vervetech9395It is possible that a strike on Russian refineries could lead to a decrease in oil production. As the second largest oil exporter, a reduction in Russian oil production could cause an increase in the price of oil due to supply and demand dynamics. This could have a global impact, making it more expensive for countries around the world to import oil. Consequently, this could influence public opinion and potentially affect voter support for the war in Ukraine, particularly in the United States, where oil prices directly impact consumers and can influence political decisions.

​@@vervetech9395Targeting Russian oil can affect the world supply chain and may cause another Oil and Gas price increase, which surely Biden voters will not gonna like 😂, so basically, Ukraine helping Trump win this coming election 😂👍

​@@mathewowens767Are you saying Ukraine have not attacked Russian territory? What's your issue ,stupidity or ignorance?

Everyone believed Ukraine would fall immediately are you on crack? Everyone who believes Ukraine SHOULD win is correct.

The problem is not that. The problem is the treason of American """conservatives""" And the cowards...

Neither side wins in regards to innocent common people who had nothing to do with government decisions, dying on both sides. Think of mothers, brothers, sisters, friends who are also affected. What do most of us want, a life without interference of wars and sanctions. Sanctions that affect ordinary innocent individuals who have nothing to do with elected government decisions. Weapons and finance to prolong and increase the number of innocent livs on all sides.

@@MrWannabeartist The continuation of the conflict depends only on Zelensky. Putin again said that he is open to negotiations.

@@michael-muller Uh no, now you're skipping a lot of context. First you need to look at what happened in 2014, and Russia's constitution. Then you have to look at Putin's propaganda, repeatedly claiming to reclaim "Greater Rossia", which is what they like to use when referring to the Soviet Union. Then look at what they in Russia think of the way the Cold War ended, and what they think of Gorbachev. And then you can look at how Russia defines "Nazis", and why they like to use it as an umbrella term for anyone going against the "Russian ideal" (it has to do with the Red Army in ww2, and how it has been used as propaganda over there ever since). The reason Russia advanced so suddenly and why it never seemed ideal for them to do so, considering the cost of doing so and how they weren't really prepared, is because NATO provoked them. It's the exact same scenario as the Cuban missile crisis, except it's NATO that wanted to plant some in Ukraine. But Russia has never accepted the end of the Cold War, and has always strived for reclaiming Eastern Europe again, so they would more than likely have done so eventually either way. Context matters.

Is this the talking point you were told to push?

@@FrostekFerenczy I’m not the one that came up with the shovel narrative.

It's a proxy war. You shouldn't read too much into it. When push comes to shove, if they'd clash directly and either side starts using WMD, then there would be no winner and we'd all be goners all around the world. It's why proxy wars matters, and why world powers holds back in proxy wars. It's to not tilt the equilibrium too far to one side but at the same time achieving the bare minimum of whatever purpose a world power would participate in a proxy war.
