Rants from Kyiv 🇺🇦 War Editor, Kyiv Independent
A few days ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested he’s so entertained by his “special military operation” in Ukraine that he’s worried he might be bored once it ends.
And this is Russia in a nutshell tbh — a modern day death cult.
So what does Russia’s insatiable thirst for war mean for Ukraine? Well, given Putin doesn’t seem to give the slightest toss that the war has come home to quite a few of the plebs he rules over, it looks like we’re headed into a new phase of escalation.
So what might that look like?
That millisecond clip of the satanic gremlin was all I could take. Thank God he cut it short.
Any nation that has a stock of Patriot interceptors but won’t send them to Ukraine at this desperate time is an enabler of putinaZi genocide.
That won’t be forgotten.
Geez are you including most of the members of the EU and perhaps Canada. Also since Trump threatened Greenland perhaps Denmark threw a couple of Patriots there.
This might not be exhaustive :
Global Operators of the Patriot System
North America: United States
Europe: Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Greece, Spain (along with other NATO partners like the Netherlands, Romania, and Sweden)
Asia-Pacific: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan
Middle East & North Africa: Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Bahrain, Kuwait, Israel (plus Jordan)
Saudi Arabia’s stockpile of Patriot interceptor missiles has been reduced by 86% since the start of the war with Iran.
This was reported by Reuters.
In the 38 days of the war, the country has used up most of its stockpile of 2,800 PAC-3 interceptors, leaving approximately 400 at its disposal.
They wasted $3m interceptor missiles on shooting down Iranian drones.
They could have hired Ukrainian forces to shoot them down and donated some patriots to Ukraine.
Amen Sir Scradgel. And thanks for the update
I’d never cast aspersions against Sweden and the Netherlands. They’ve been great friends and prove it everyday. Curious you didn’t mention 5he UK. Don’t they have patriots?
The UK does NOT have Patriots.
