My original statement troops are not returning from training is completely factual. They also run away once returning.

Both facts.

You lose

Your original statement was that they were discontinuing the overseas training program because of soldier's not returning to Ukraine, which is false.

I don't know how old you are, but I wonder how you've gotten however far you have in life with such limited cognitive skills.

But keep moving those goal posts, you are good at it.

Nope.

They are suffering a desertion crisis of a very high magnitude.

I agree, they have a desertion crisis, I'm not arguing that.

How dense are you?

Unless you respond with some evidence of a functioning brain, I'm out on this conversation.

Yep it can handle spreadsheet data that makes ChatGPT and Gemini shite their pants. I've been super impressed since switching over.

Go easy on TexasAg. The Aggies got routed yesterday against Houston, so he's still recovering, as you can see:

It would be great if Putin and Trump got together and said “we agreed to jointly cease all hostilities beyond our borders” and then packed up their shite and went home. Win-win-win

Ukraine exposed a Hungarian military intelligence officer as the handler of a spy network operating in Zakarpattia. Agents were recruited to collect data on Ukrainian air defense positions, military deployments and local sentiment, including potential reactions to the introduction of Hungarian troops. The network also targeted current and former Ukrainian military personnel and used diplomatic channels for recruitment, with multiple agents already detained.

"... including potential reactions to the introduction of Hungarian troops"? I wonder where they got this idea? Certainly not from anyone in Hungary...

Let's recall that Orban threatened to cut off electricity supply to Western Ukraine but backed down stating that he didn't wish to cut power to Hungarians living in Ukraine. Yeah...

Then he gives the Russians the data on the Zakarpattia electric substation so that they can destroy it.

Makes sense. Who's making the decisions here?

So now we know, that this guy (Orban's spy handler in Ukraine) passed the information to the russians to bomb the power substation in Zakarpattia

Deja vu all over again...

quote:

BUDAPEST — In the run-up to Hungary’s pivotal election in April, a unit of Russia’s foreign intelligence service last month began sounding the alarm over plummeting public support for Prime Minister Viktor Orban, whose friendly ties to Moscow have long given the Kremlin a strategic foothold inside NATO and the European Union.

Officers from the intelligence service, or SVR, suggested that drastic action might be necessary — a strategy they called “the Gamechanger.” In an internal report for the SVR obtained and authenticated by a European intelligence service and reviewed by The Washington Post, the operatives proposed a way to “fundamentally alter the entire paradigm of the election campaign” — “the staging of an assassination attempt on Viktor Orban.”
quote:

“There is growing panic in the ruling party, and I think they may take some not well-considered steps to hold onto power,” said Andras Telkes, a Hungarian former deputy foreign intelligence chief. “The Russians will do everything to keep Orban in power. … They consider Hungary as part of their sphere of influence.”
quote:

While Fidesz has a skilled propaganda machine of its own, the Russian operatives could be involved in contingency planning for Moscow to cast doubt on the integrity of the vote, one of the Western officials said.

Kremlin hits oil jackpot: Russia's revenues may surge by 70% in a month

Artur Kryzhnyi — 24 March, 13:33

A sharp rise in oil prices triggered by the war with Iran has allowed the Russian government to defer a plan to increase long-term budget reserves, easing pressure on short-term finances.

Source: Reuters, citing sources

Details: The deferral reflects the fact that the Russian economy, despite difficulties stemming from the costs of the war in Ukraine and international sanctions, is one of the few in the world to be benefiting from the US and Israeli war against Iran.

International oil prices, which had held at around US$70 per barrel before the war began in late February, have risen above US$100 per barrel. Gas prices have also risen sharply.

Russia's oil and gas budget revenues in April are expected to rise by 70% compared with March, reaching 0.9 trillion roubles (approximately US$11.1 billion) – the highest monthly level since October 2025, according to Reuters calculations based on a tax oil price of US$75 per barrel.

Background:

Russia is earning up to US$150 million per day in additional budget revenues from oil sales, making it the largest beneficiary of the Middle East conflict.
The US war in the Persian Gulf is sharply increasing Russia's oil revenues. New research shows that if hostilities continue until September, this will bring Russia up to US$250 billion.
