Abe has arrived, but I’m used to a sand color.
Just in time for the winter counteroffensive.
russia: “the WHAT…?”
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The first American-made Abrams tanks have been delivered to Ukraine, two U.S. defense officials said, arriving months ahead of initial estimates and in time to be used in Kyiv’s counteroffensive against Russian forces.
But Kyrylo Budanov, the head of Ukraine’s military intelligence, has warned that the Abrams would need to be deployed “in a very tailored way, for very specific, well-crafted operations,” or risk being destroyed.
Their arrival represents part of an extraordinary effort by Western allies — responding to relentless pushing from Ukraine — to deliver a powerful weapon months ahead of schedule.
Just one year ago, allies had resisted sending Western-made tanks to Ukraine, concerned that doing so would draw NATO more directly into the war and further escalate tensions with President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia.
By January, however, convinced that Ukraine needed more heavy armored vehicles to confront Russian forces, Britain, Germany and the United States each agreed to supply the modern Western tanks or allow for them to be transferred to Kyiv.
U.S. troops began training Ukrainian forces in late spring, conducting an abbreviated 12-week course to operate Abrams tanks at American military bases in Germany.

Can’t wait to see them vaporized. The US has to stop sending weapons to nazis and white supremacists
You has to stop being online and go outside for a few days. Interact with other people.

You honestly think anyone in Russia cares about neonazi? You do know that large swaths of oligarchs in modern Russia were formerly members of Soviet era organized crime? Where nazi symbolism was used as a symbol for anti establishment counter culture.
Why do you think their largest pmc was founded by a self confessed neonazi who named it “Wagner”?
Does Ukraine have a problem with neo nazi groups? Yes, pretty much every country in the former Soviet block has a problem with reactionary fascist paramilitary groups, including Russia.
The real difference is that in Ukraine they don’t have any power in the civil government, which can’t be said for Russia.
If Russia really cares about Nazism, they would have handled their own problems with it first. They wouldn’t have created an entire pmc out of them.
Does Ukraine have a problem with neo nazi groups?
tbf, most western european countries have a problem with neo nazis. And we all know which country is funding far-right parties…

Lol remember that Iraqi disinformation guy, you sound like him.
Baghdad Bob is alive! we found him on lemmy!
Yeah yeah, Baghdad Bob lol!
If russia hates neo nazis so much, why is it funding them all over the world? Either they are plain stupid or they are plain out lying to you.
Neo nazis love putin and russia has a decent historical track record as liar and for revisionistic history.
Lay off the kool aid…
