6. That NATO general is so arrogant! He paints Russia has incapable by saying Russia does not have the skill to break through…and even they lost locally whrn they do so😂

18. if you hear that phrase: 'diffucult hold ground' then remember kyiv is preparing us the next phase ' we are going to run away'

19. Before you said they were fighting with shovels

20. Uraaa

21. Zelenskyy Please dialogue

22. It was barely more than 3 years, Americans said that the Talibans is on the run. Soon after, then couldn't get out of Afghanistan fast enough. Ukraine shouldn't ONLY believe Americans if they are actually doing the fighting. Now they are using Ukrainians to die for them.

23. A NATO general! Who is still listening to his opinion?

24. Same generals that lost Afghanistan with ak47s and soviet era weapons
