Ooops.
Declaring war on DPR means recognizing DPR as a country, which is one of the reasons Europe was so reticent to officially pick a side in the US civil war IIRC but i migth be rong about that im rly tired. -

Of course knowing Ukrainian bureaucracy a citizenship application probably takes 24 months and in-person visits to a dozen offices at least. -

Originally posted by aldra A lot of places are now saying that the offensive was initially 10-12k strong and that roughly 30% (!) weren't AFU, but NATO troops. I don't know where that information originally came from but it sounds unrealistic given that only small groups have been seen in the past (there are plenty of videos of US, English and French mercs but never enough to form their own units).
If it's true it marks the unequivocal graduation from 'proxy war' to direct participation.
lol what places? where do younget your propaganda from? even ghe rt arent saying half of what you claim. -

Telegram, Russian blogs like Andrei Martyanov and Boris Rozhin/colonelcassad
if you weren't retarded you'd realise that I was questioning the claims they made, not just blindly reposting like this:

The Soviets fell into the same trap in the same place in WWII. -
2022-09-20 at 7:55 PM UTCwhat, dummy hardware? everyone uses it, nowadays they're mostly big inflatable things, like SAM-themed jumping castles
the rest of that video is just repeating Ukrainian claims that we really haven't lost anything and the Russians are going to run out of fuel/ammo/drones any day now -

2022-09-20 at 9:11 PM UTCit's hard to believe RT is even supported by the Russian government nowadays, they run so many opeds that are completely contrary to both the MoD line and the facts on the ground that it's bizarre
their reporting quality in general has fallen apart over the last five years or so but their messaging on the Ukraine war is just... nonsensical -

Nobody worth a shit stayed with RT after the Ukraine invasion. Maybe you missed out on context being Asian and Australian and having that cool business-like Pacific vibe going on, but that was a real big fucking deal here in Europe. -

is it because they got banned across the EU? I guess that'd strip most of their local offices -
