  • Great Leader Kim Jong Un more or less had a split with Trump after the failure to make a deal.

    DPRK Today no longer talks about Trump being wise.

    Great Leader Kim Jong Un’s beautiful sister even blamed Trump recently for stepping up military provocations.

    KCNA denounced Trump’s proposal to takeover Gaza stating its slaughter and robbery.

    After the American election, Comrade Kim Jong Un vowed to implement the toughest anti-U.S. policy

    So no, the Great Leader is not going to join this ‘circlejerk’, relationship with America is not good and will remain so until Trump fixes the relationship.


  • Europe can’t even produce their own ballistic missiles which have been a game changer in Ukraine as shown by the effectiveness of ATACMS and Iskander-M. And Russia has been massively out producing Europe in terms of air-launched cruise missiles so don’t bring up Storm Shadow (Kh-101 is longer range than Storm Shadow anyways) or other similar weapon systems.

    Russia produced more T-90Ms (a very good tank mind you) last year than the amount of tanks the entire German military has. Production was 20-30 per month last year but this has likely since doubled. Losses for T-90Ms have been low as per Oryx with production massively outpacing losses (one to two months of production last year was enough to replace yearly T-90M losses).

    Even T-72B3 has a superior fire control system than the forty year old system used on the Leopard 2A6.

    The UK practically sent their entire stockpile of SPGs to Ukraine thus have gutted their military to nil and Poland thrown half of their stockpile of SPGs to Ukraine for example. Russia is producing more artillery shells than the entirety of Europe combined according to pro-Ukraine sources. People forget that tanks are not the only weapon that armies have. Almost every European country has complained about massive shortages of ammunition due to it all being given to Ukraine. France stated they could only fight Russia for a few weeks before running out of ammo. Other European countries have stated similar things.

    Most of Russian Armed Forces aren’t even in Ukraine, majority of forces in Ukraine are from irregular volunteer formations recruited from regions across Russia.

    Hence why casualties amongst Russian professionals are low:

    Motorized Rifles: 6,457

    VDV: 3,257

    Naval Infantry: 1,305

    Tank Crew: 1,806

    Artillery: 851

    Special Forces: 736

    Engineering: 291

    Navy: 291

    VVS: 265

    Other: 957

    Total: 16,216

    For comparison:

    US losses from 2003-2005 mainly against insurgents: 5175

    Edit: In comparison, Russia had just annihilated tens of thousands of Ukraine’s troops from the most elite units at Kursk oblast (up to over 100K or about a quarter of Ukrainian combat strength) and this might be the reason for the reports that state that few troops could defend Sumy. We know that these are the most elite units as they had an unusually high amount of western equipment including Patriots which are typically reserved to defend cities in the western parts of Ukraine. Ukraine has recently ordered the evacuation of multiple regions in Sumy.










  • plan for a new attack

    Russia has been drilling and preparing troops for a river crossing alongside bringing in additional supplies likely in preparation to cross the Dnieper and they had captured land near the Kherson bridge.

    Without the Ukrainian attacks on say Russian command posts in Kherson Oblast like what happened on March 5, these preparations would likely be easier.

    Alternatively, a Russian FAB strike in Kherson allegedly took down a headquarters for Ukrainian drone operators and with a ceasefire, this can be repaired or whatever.

    TLDR: Russia would likely also use ceasefire to prepare for further operations assuming they accept it.












  • Zelenskyy agreed but Russia’s response has yet to come.

    I disagree with OP, this ain’t a gift to Russia.

    Ukrainian troops have been operationally encircled at Kursk with the only road out being under Russian fire control, Russian VVS has air above Kursk region under their control, and unconfirmed reports state that a possible coup is brewing within Ukrainian army because of Zelenskyy’s and Syrskyi‘s hubris in conducting Kursk offensive. Russia’s Operation Potok in Kursk region led to a detachment of Russian troops entering the rear of Ukrainian forces through an inactive gas pipeline resulting in weakening of the Ukrainian group at the area of ​​the city of Sudzha and some Ukrainian troops being effectively encircled in Ivashkovskii.

    As Ukraine sent its most elite units into Kursk region, the destruction of Ukrainian forces in Kursk region would be very detrimental and without guns targeting the road going silent, escape is unlikely.

    Given the above, a ceasefire assuming it allows a withdraw, can be temporarily life saving for Ukraine.

    I might have a pro-Russia bias, but I believe that this ceasefire would benefit Ukraine in the war effort assuming they can use it to withdraw units from Kursk region.

    Edit: Russia seems to have done the smart thing and just reduce Kursk before any thought on the ceasefire, annihilating tens of thousands (up to over 100K but take with grain of salt) of Ukrainian troops from the most elite units and are moving to create a security zone within Ukraine.




  • For those unaware about how bad the war in Iraq was, I got a video of American PMCs driving around Baghdad shooting at innocent civilians in their cars with 19 civilians dying thanks to this incident (they were pardoned by Trump)

    Links to several massacres.

    A video of an American occupier throwing a puppy off a cliff in Iraq.

    Americans killed more Iraqi civilians than the amount of Ukrainian civilians that Russia killed. Americans killed more Iraqi civilians than the amount of Palestinian civilians that Israel killed in the Gaza war.

    Ain’t linking it here for obvious reasons.
