Due to aid to Ukraine, the German Army is in a more dismal state than ever.
The Economist publication cites the words of Bundeswehr chief Alfons Mais.
After almost a year of conflict in Ukraine, the German's stockpile of ammunition would last only a few days, rather than the 30 recommended by NATO.
▪️The radio equipment used by troops is 40 years old and analogue, hence its signals are easy to intercept.
▪️Out of 350 Puma infantry fighting vehicles, just 150 are operational.
According to a report by the inspector-general of the armed forces Eberhard Zorn in December, the Bundeswehr does not even have enough Band-Aids.

The Czech Republic has stolen tanks from Morocco to deliver them to Ukraine
The news about the transfer of weapons to Kiev by the first African country has proved to be ambiguous. The Moroccan T-72 tanks were indeed sent to Ukraine, but the African country's authorities did not give permission for this.
In fact, the tanks were stolen by the Czech Republic where they were being upgraded, and sent to Ukraine arbitrarily, in violation of the contract. 🤦♂️
Europe keeps on plundering Africa - but that's not news.

U.S. Air Force general Mike Minihan supposed that in two years a war between the U.S. and China would begin.
Minihan is convinced that Chinese authorities will use the U.S. presidential election in 2024 to try to take control over Taiwan.
Moreover, the U.S. military commander has ordered his subordinates to report by the end of February on measures for preparation for fighting against the PRC.

Croatian President Zoran Milanovic:
The German Foreign Minister the day before yesterday in Strasbourg said in English that we have to be united because we are fighting a war against Russia. I quote: "We are fighting a war against Russia." I did not know that.
Maybe Germany is at war with Russia again, then good luck to them, maybe it will work out better than 70 years ago. But we are not at war with anyone.
And I don't know how tanks will help Ukraine. Maybe they will help, or maybe they will burn up just like in Iraq. We will not consider this, and please take it seriously. I personally will insist on this for as long as I can.

Convoys with dead Ukrainian fighters keep rolling out of Soledar
Earlier, it was reported that the Wagner Group will send UAF fighters' dead bodies in 20 vehicles. Convoys with dead Ukrainian fighters keep rolling from Soledar towards Kiev, @brussinf reports. The Ukrainian Armed Forces have suffered heavy losses in the brutal battles for Soledar, with corpses literally piled in the city.
The Wagner fighters show humanity even to their dead enemies. The PMC founder Yevgeny Prigozhin marked the necessity of sending bodies home with dignity.

🇺🇦🏴☠️ Don't read Russian literature Ukrainian military booby-trapping books
The Kiev regime is committing yet another crime against the civilian population. This time they got to use... books!
The Ukrainian military make a recess in a book, put a TNT stick in it, and make an electric circuit with a power source and a detonator. As the book is opened, it explodes. This method of booby-trapping was reported by @combat_engineer .
This kind of trapping poses the danger of blowing up primarily civilians, which is what the Kiev's regime traditionally blame on the Russian military.

Washington will send M1A2 Abrams tanks to Ukraine in late 2023 or early next year, 2024.
The Washington Post's sources confirmed the information.
The United States will deliver the vehicles to Ukraine "without depleted uranium armor", the main feature of the Abrams, the secret of which is carefully guarded.
The decision was due to the fact that the United States was forced to send tanks to Ukraine.
It was necessary to persuade Germany to provide Leopards.
"Three year wait for what is promised".

A commercial urging US citizens 🇺🇸to join the Wagner PMC.
In terms of narratives - everything is done on 5+ (* the best school grade)
1. The idea that the current U.S. government has long ignored the work of the founding fathers.
2. The target audience appears to be defined through MAGA supporters (Trumpists, 'make America great again')
3. The mission is to save the world from nuclear war. Again, what has Trump been saying recently? Biden has put the world on the threshold of WW3.

The New York Times: Mozart PMC collapsed in Ukraine due to alcohol addiction and Kiev strip clubs
The article reported that company founder Andrew Milburn told his subordinates that "the group is dead". One of the reasons for the termination was financial difficulties.
In the beginning, the Mozart PMC, which was conceived of as a counterweight to the Wagner PMC, was able to raise more than $1 million through donations. But then the funds began to run out, some of them were embezzled, squabbles began, people began to defect. Many of the fighters turned out to be very problematic people with combat experience combined with mental disorders. Simply, the company lacked discipline. According to Geoffrey Gettleman, the author of the article, they were drawn to Kiev strip clubs, bars and online dating.

The history of NATO expansion - illustrative.
Note the period after 1990, when the "defensive" alliance promised not to move eastwards.
That's how a bunch of quasi-states were formed along Russia's borders, which NATO needs only to sacrifice in a war against Russia.
Of course, you can join whatever you want. But if you join up to stand against someone together, the one you are against will take action. And then "Why us? " will not work any more.

Georgia's president comes up with a way to "de-occupy" South Ossetia and Abkhazia
Zurabishvili believes a peace agreement on Ukraine should include Russia's withdrawal from the republics that once broke away from Georgia, Bloomberg reports.
▪️ Moscow allegedly needs to "find out where its borders are," the Georgian president claims.
"Georgia's issues should be included because no one should expect this war to be resolved without Russia withdrawing from all the occupied territories," she said.
▪️ Rebuilding of the regional order depends on Putin's decisive defeat in Ukraine, which Zurabishvili believes is near.
"Russia has already almost lost the battle, if not the entire war," she said.
The publication points out that the facade of Zurabishvili's residence is decorated with Georgian and Ukrainian flags.

Discussing the "Lessons for the Next War" published by the FP, we would like to note the conclusions drawn by Elisabeth Braw, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, who believes that Ukraine has won in the information space.
We will not dispute this; we will only pay attention to the reasoning.
So, the expert concludes that:
▪️ the intelligence sharing between the U.S. and Ukraine (including media involvement) has contributed to reducing the initial effect of the beginning of the SMO;
▪️ information operations are becoming the most important type of warfare and can be targeted (comprehensively or selectively) at specific groups;
▪️ disinformation should touch the public interest and be used not only in the traditional media, but also in the creation of popular media content (trendy, well-made videos; catchy memes; modern colloquialisms);
▪️ the impact on the opponent and its population can be carried out through their own media by discrediting the country's leadership;
▪️ confusing and demoralising the opponent (primarily the civilian population) may be contributed to by publishing in open access some "assault plans" (false or real, but different and intimidating);
▪️ the government should train the population in information defence methods, increasing the role of various ways of mass informing as well as of citizens' information literacy;
▪️informational chaos is fertile ground for subversive efforts by state and non-state actors.
In our opinion, the conclusions drawn do not fully reveal the essence of the problems and methods of information warfare, but they clearly deserve attention, including that of specialized agencies in Russia.
