That's all you got? The Current Account. Ok, well that's a pretty bad way of measuring anything. Shall we start with them still running a SURPLUS. When is the last time the US saw a surplus of anything? Plus, it could indicate their economy is doing better as their people could be buying more consumer goods which would reduce the current account.
 
Zelinskyy just had to honor the Minsk agreements and not persecute Russians living in his country - but, of course, he wouldn't have billions in US taxpayer money flowing if he did that.

Sending 3000 US over is a splendid idea. Now it gets very real.
 

Ukraine: Two dead after 'attack' on Crimea bridge - BBC News​

Jul 17, 2023


4:12

Two people have died after an "attack" on the bridge linking the occupied Crimean peninsula to Russia.
The head of Crimea's parliament blamed Ukraine for the incident, state media reported, but Kyiv is yet to officially comment.
The Kerch bridge was opened in 2018 and enables road and rail travel between Russia and Crimea - Ukrainian territory occupied by Moscow's forces since 2014.
Russia's transport ministry said the bridge's supports were not damaged.

🫤No. That is entirely incorrect.

Do a search for who created & owns Telegram.

Next search for his connection to WEF.

Telegram is controlled opposition.
 
KYIV (Reuters) -Russia struck Ukrainian ports a day after pulling out of a U.N.-backed deal for safe Black Sea grain exports, and Moscow and Kyiv gave vastly different accounts of fighting in northeastern Ukraine on Tuesday.

Russia said it hit fuel storage in Odesa and a plant making seaborne drones there, as part of "mass revenge strikes" for attacks by Ukraine that knocked out its road bridge to the occupied Crimean Peninsula.

Russia attacks Ukraine ports after quitting grains export deal

good old Reuters - 'Russia said it hit fuel storage in Odesa and a plant making seaborne drones there, as part of "mass revenge strikes" for attacks by Ukraine that knocked out its road bridge to the occupied Crimean Peninsula'

I believe Russia has occupied Crimea for long enough to claim the territory -

'Crimea was part of Russia from 1783, when the Tsarist Empire annexed it a decade after defeating Ottoman forces in the Battle of Kozludzha'

So technically, yes I suppose Crimea is occupied
 
Ukrainian men being kidnapped off the street and under threat of death sent to kill and die for NATO objectives...

By Olena Harmash (Reuters) – A Ukrainian sea drone full of explosives struck a Russian fuel tanker overnight near a bridge linking Russia to annexed Crimea, the second attack in 24 hours, both sides said on Saturday.

No one was hurt, but the Crimean Bridge and ferry transport were suspended for several hours, according to Russian-installed officials in Crimea, which Moscow seized from Ukraine in 2014.

They really want WWIII don't they!

Missiles incoming in the next 48 hrs... probably taking out Command and Control Centers in Ukraine.
 
Zelensky needs WW3 in order to get everyone else to get rid of Russia but the NATO lot are not at all keen.

Apart from Poland, who also probably think an article 4 situation will allow them to go and grab 'their' bit of Ukraine and everyone else will have their back.

Russia is doing just fine in a war that is rapidly evolving as information, AI and smart delivery systems change the rules.
Those 'big arrow' moves are only possible if the enemy has no available defence and until Ukraine runs out of soldiers and weapons it makes more sense to goad the Ukrainians into attacking prepared Russian defences.

Russia seems able to respond calmly all provocations and not allow itself to be provoked, always having the ability to up the ante and to let the enemy know that they have such options.
 
Europe is done.

Prigozhin just died in a plane crash. More to come.
 
Notorious Wagner Group mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin has been killed in a plane crash along with 10 people on board.

A private jet owned by Prigozhin has crashed in Russia killing everyone on board - and the notorious warlord was on the passenger list, the Russian Civil Aviation Authority confirmed.

The news is breaking from Russia this afternoon that a possible business jet owned by Prigozhin has plummeted to the ground and exploded in a fireball in the Tver region, northwest of Moscow.

Dramatic footage posted online shows an aircraft plummeting in a straight line from the sky down onto the group, and exploding in flames.

CIA/Mossad with a bomb. We are expected to blame Putin. It was actually Zelensky's revenge. The narrative is was matters most to demoralize the Russians and justify the US Congress in sending Z another kazillion dollars.

Yeah too soon to tell.
 
I must have missed this in the news. Exactly how much is Ukraine taxing its citizens to send us money to help out after the Maui fires?
