Russia: invades and destroys Ukraine, using Iran weapons
Also Russia: You can't attack us with Nato weapons! How dare you!
Joe is betting with a losing hand!
Let's not cry when Russia strikes back 10 fold.
Russia should be able to retailiate. Russia should publicly condemn that this is a direct US attack on Russia.
why does this lady look like harry mack?
Congratulations, ww3 is here.
Warmongers
The US really needs to wake up. This is the third European conflict they have hesitated to get properly engaged in, and look where that got us in the past.
Gotta sign up for Vaultek
There's nothing like "some weapons" or "some targets" when you are losing ground. Ukraine will go all in. The response from Russia might also be devastating. This war should end, many innocent people are dying while the elite rich leaders make more money from the arms trade.
Now we can see mushroom cloud, if Us is allowing to strike russia with Western weaponary then Us Is also target here and other western countries
Why always USA comes at last minutes when the damage is dramatically done
50 countries and their puppet master USA 🇺🇸 proxy Ukraine 🇺🇦 against Russia 🇷🇺 and they lost 😅😅
Civilian casualities is America's specialty
they knew, when Russia is hit
they will hit 10 times back
Russia has been in an incredibly privileged position of striking Ukraine without fearing being hit back due to fears of Putin's blackmail.
Nobody wants peace only war😢
Good moves to check its efficacy before going to war with China
The war mongers !!! And the news the always anticipate things before they happen! They go hand in hand !
👍👍👍wise decision Mr President
Ines Pohl, you need to fix your hair. WTF is that? 😀
Russia won’t get the memo until they are forced out of Ukraine by the US
(2:20) There is no outcome in which Ukraine won this conflict by military means.
Even if they had all weapons in the world, it would be physically impossible to reach Moscow, let alone capture it.
Just stop giving Ukraine Israel weapons
War cannot happen if amarica don't give Ukraine weapons and give back Israel to Palestine
Good job, Biden.
Rassia must leave ukraine
Biden election coming and Ukraine losing ground. Biden need to extend the war till election .. so this the only way
terrible
About time
Biden needs to find his backbone and unlearn to be such a damn weak kneed politician. I know I won't be voting for him next time and sit-out this Fall.I'm beginning to believe he's even afraid of his own shadow and uses Putin's nuke thread for his wishy washy actions. Bullies only understand strong resolute actions. He's old enough to remember Munich in the 30's.
Russia has not managed to win against Ukraine in almost two and a half years and we are "afraid" they would attack us? Let's get real…
GOOD
😍🤩😘🥰
Lol Russia has already started a global confrontation.
You all are funny. After Ukraine hit belgorod Russia retaliated by tuning cutting off electricity in the whole city. When the refinery was attacked Russia opened the dam. Destroyed electricity in half of Kiev are you blind to see that Ukraine will be the one to suffer at the end.
You are hitting Russia with a gifted weapon that will run out soon😂😂 retaliation is always hazardous ⚠️ you will cry again
