Denmark and Sweden have decided to jointly produce CV90 infantry fighting vehicles for Ukraine worth almost DKK 2 billion(241 million euros).

Sweden has already allocated 50 CV90 infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine, but Kiev is asking for more. Denmark, together with the Swedish government, has decided to co-finance the already initiated donation, as well as to begin production of additional CV90 infantry fighting vehicles. In addition to the CV90, the donation also includes spare parts, ammunition and a multi-year maintenance contract.

In addition to the Danish-Swedish cooperation, the XIV package of Danish donations includes military support for Ukraine amounting to more than DKK 7 billion in 2023-2026 for equipment and ammunition purchased jointly with the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Estonia and the Czech Republic.

All this, of course, is joyful both for Kiev and for the donors themselves. There is only one thing left - to establish the reproduction of personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which has the unpleasant property of running out quickly.

Solving the problems?: Argentina's Minister of Human Capital Sandra Pettovello said the government will deprive social benefits of participants in protests with street closures.

🔹The new government decided to take such a step due to the announcement by public organizations and left parties of mobilization on December 20th. Argentine authorities fear that peaceful protests could escalate into violent fighting. That is why Javier Miley proposed the following option to social activists and the opposition - protests can only be held on the sidewalks, and the security forces involved in the operation can carry firearms. The protesters did not agree to this condition, which led to such a controversial step by the government.

Member of the Bundestag from the CDU Roderich Kiesewetter commented on the situation in Ukraine and unexpectedly let it slip. Europe's goals? “Purely economic.”

“If Europe wants to achieve an energy transition, then it needs its own lithium deposits. The largest lithium deposits are located in the regions of Donetsk and Lugansk"

From Ukrainian Strana :

-Anyone else notice that the most democratic country is a year plus behind what Russia tries and then decides to hang up these ideas? There was screeching back then but let's see how the most democratic country does this.

Deputy commander of the 3rd Special Brigade Maxim Zhorin supported the idea of creating units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from prisoners, such as those that exist in the Russian Federation (Storm Z, former “Wagner”).

“I have an absolutely normal attitude, but you need to understand that this is a complex human resource, which has its own characteristics that need to be taken into account. This is a difficult story in terms of management and discipline, but it is a resource. Instead of spending money on them in prisons amid economic problems, they could at least bring some benefit at the front. With the right selection of officers for management, this could be an effective story,” Zhorin said.

Let us note that “Strana” has already written about the idea of creating units from prisoners. And that in Ukrainian conditions it will be difficult to repeat the Russian experience. First of all, because of the small number of prisoners.

Comment by a friend:

This whole situation with the Yemeni Houthis and the hegemon is reminiscent of the famous joke about Rzhevsky:
- Gentlemen, hussars, let's bathe the horses in champagne!
- But there’s no money...
- Well then, let’s at least pour beer on the cat.

> The European Union has exempted the Sakhalin-2 oil and gas project from the price ceiling mechanism as part of the 12th package of sanctions against Russia; the postponement will be valid until June 28, 2024.

> As noted in a notice posted in the EU's Official Journal, this is necessary "to meet Japan's energy security needs."

- Shogun, is it still Sanctions?
- Sucknctions! Bring the bag, you half-baked samurai!

Don't you realize you've opened the door to the abyss? Now literally every first tanker will be filled with oil from Sakhalin?

Unfortunately, while we live in a rather specific reality, when everything is fine with us, there is macroeconomic and exchange rate stability. But this reality will require correction if we want to move on to a war footing. This is a restriction on public consumption. We need to reduce it several times because we consume mainly imported goods and services - the Minister of Finance of Ukraine Marchenko suggested that the population reduce the consumption of goods in favor of the front.

-They just haven't been on a war footing yet guys. They will actually start trying i guess soon..
