A lack of modern rotary forges due to sanctions has been a major factor in the Russia’s forced cannibalisation of old artillery systems and troubles producing large numbers of new systems.
The people responsible at this company should be thrown in prison for a long time.
"In these fraught times, the New York Times has made a seemingly deliberate and very self-aware choice to paint a picture of this war without the understanding of who is in the right and who is in the wrong," writes Francis Farrell in this op-ed. https://t.co/nZui2mgYY0
Completely and utterly untrue. Stats are pretty clear on this one.
Death rate of unvaccinated adults was 12.7 times higher than people with primary vaccination series.
Death rate of unvaxxed was 53.2X higher than among those who were vaxxed & boosted.

Putin is making it very clear that any truce in Ukraine will come only when he is defeated. We talk, he kills Ukrainians. We talk some more, he kills more Ukrainians. He has openly said he wants to destroy Ukraine and that is his war aim. A combined Ukrainian-US-European effort will be needed to defeat him badly enough that he wants a crease fire. Until then he will keep lying and killing. We don’t need a single American military person fighting in Ukraine. We do need to provide advanced weapons in quantity, permission to hit against military targets in Russia and vastly expanded sanctions against Russia. Only then will a ceasefire be possible.
Just another signal to every single U.S. partner and customer nation that no matter what they do, even if they follow every single demand from Washington, the U.S. can completely cut them off at any time.
Actions like this will have long term geopolitical consequences.

Obama's shitty policy and disastrous bets sent shockwaves that we still suffer from +15 years later.. from Syria and Yemen to Sahel, Europe and specifically Ukraine.
@txdburner@OzKaterji Obama admin foreign policy set the stage for the Invasion of Ukraine, the destruction of Syria, the mass exodus of migrants that enflamed populism in Europe, and didn't hang the bankers following 2008 setting the stage for populist victories in the States.
Memes were good tho.
