@SpeakerJohnson in an interview with an Italian newspaper:

quote:

"This war has been needlessly prolonged because Putin has refused to come to the negotiating table, and Biden-Harris’ policies have repeatedly forced Ukraine to fight with one arm behind its back. The administration needs to implement more meaningful sanctions on Russia, including areas that would impose the most cost (such as oil sales), stop the restrictions on weapons being used against legitimate military Russia targets, and stop the misguided strategy of appeasement"

"It’s critical for the administration to focus on delivering the sanctions and weapons Congress approved, and to develop an end-game strategy before it asks for additional resources."

Any idea what the source of this report is? I can't find anything to corroborate it online.

From what I recall, Ukraine would have been more or less defenseless to any further Putin moves and even less independent than Belarus

Why do you keep sharing talking points from far leftists ? Look what Mate’s pinned tweet is. Do you share his sentiment about the “genocide in Gaza?”

'Massive' drone attack on multiple Russian regions ongoing, explosions reported, officials claim

by Dmytro Basmat September 10, 2024 1:22 AM (Updated:
September 10, 2024 2:58 AM

Ukraine launched a "massive drone attack" on Russia's Bryansk Oblast, Governor Alexander Bogomaz claimed on Telegram overnight on Sept. 10. Air raid alerts were also activated in at least nine different oblasts, Russian officials reported.

The Kyiv Independent cannot verify the claim, and Ukraine has not yet commented on the alleged attack.

Videos of purported explosions heard over Bryansk Oblast were posted on social media by local residents around 12:30 a.m. local time.

Bogomaz claimed that 21 Ukrainian drones had been downed by air defenses in first hour of the attack.

Later in the night, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin also claimed that three drones had been shot down over Moscow Oblast en route to the capital.

Air raid alerts and the presence of drones were also reported overnight in Belgorod, Kursk, Oryol, Voronezh, Tula and Kaluga oblasts, as well as the Krasnodar Krai region.

No information was immediately available as to any damage or casualties caused by the alleged attacks.

ISW Update Sept 9th

quote:

Key Takeaways:

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov attended the Russia-Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Joint Ministerial Meeting of Strategic Dialogue in Saudi Arabia on September 9, likely as part of Kremlin efforts to advance the creation of its envisioned “Eurasian security architecture.”

Kremlin officials are likely trying to shape international peace mediation efforts in the war in Ukraine while demonstrating Russia's unwillingness to engage in good-faith negotiations with Ukraine.

The Kremlin leveraged Russian regional elections from September 6 to 8 to integrate trusted Russian military veterans of the war in Ukraine into the Russian government, likely as part of an ongoing attempt to appease Russian servicemembers, boost domestic support for the war, and build out a cadre of Kremlin-affiliated local officials.

The Kremlin refrained from replacing Acting Kursk Oblast Governor Alexei Smirnov during the Russian regional elections, likely in support of an ongoing effort to downplay the societal impacts of Ukraine’s incursion into Kursk Oblast.

Ukrainian officials continue to warn that Russian forces are increasingly using chemical weapons in Ukraine.

Russian forces recently regained lost positions in Kursk Oblast amid continued Ukrainian offensive operations in the area on September 9.

Russian forces recently advanced along the Kupyansk-Svatove line, near Siversk, near Pokrovsk, and southwest of Donetsk City, and Ukrainian forces recently regained positions near Siversk.

Russian President Vladimir Putin expanded Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov’s powers on September 9 by allowing him to grant eligible parties within the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) access to Russian state secrets (classified information).

Funny how Moscow Marjorie and the gang holding up aid and causing an ammo/munitions shortage, giving Russia their only real momentum had an effect on Ukranian soldier's morale... who would think it?

Was it Lima Whiskey or was it Trinidad talking about in the event of a conflict, Russia would have a marked advantage in air defense systems and long range AA missiles?

No one tell them about Ukraine flying hundreds of bomb laden Cessna 152s into the heart of the country night after night.

Ukraine Launches 144-Drone Barrage on Russia, Targeting Moscow and Key Regions

Moscow regional governor Andrey Vorobyov said in a Telegram post that a 46-year-old woman had been killed and several people wounded as a result of the strikes.

by Kyiv Post | September 10, 2024, 8:32 am

Ukraine launched a massive drone strike overnight, with up to 144 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) targeting multiple regions across Russia, including the capital Moscow, the Russian Defense Ministry reported on Tuesday, Sept. 10.

According to the ministry’s statement, Russian air defenses intercepted 72 drones over the Bryansk region, 20 over Moscow, 14 over Kursk, 13 over Tula, and 25 more across 5 other regions.

The attack marks one of the largest drone assaults against Russia since the beginning of the war.

Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin said on the Telegram messaging app that emergency crews were dispatched to several sites across the region, including near the Zhukovo airport and the Domodedovo district – home to one of Moscow’s largest airports.

No one wants Russia to surrender.

We all want Russia to go home. So the killing stops. So the waste stops. So people can go back to building things instead of blowing them up.

I guess that's why you call us war mongers
