defenses from the most russophobic countries of the world themselves take place at the rammstein airbaseany has gathered allies in person. the head of the pentagon catches austin the place was not chosen by chance rammstein base stronghold headquarters of the us air force in europe well, right at this moment history is being written there. how even more to arm ukraine, as us secretary of defense austin said, the allies will turn mountains so that ukraine defeats russia, well, that is, in fact, before our eyes, a second front is opening against russia and a program of so-called lend-lease for ukraine is being adopted well, and most importantly, this is the third world war now, even the minister of defense of ukraine reznikov was specially invited to the air base, but , apparently, they could not refuse him after meeting with austin in the kiev bunker. reznikov was so moved. or maybe just being impressed by the american colleague's big hugs, he wrote a strange tweet and said that they did not have some kind of partnership with the wall. and the most that neither is the brotherhood, if god

ukraine, meanwhile, a meeting of military assistance to zelensky was held at the american rammstein airbasey, organized by the head of the pentagon in fact. recognized ukraine is forced to fight in order to cause as much damage as possible to russia without the west the kyiv regime will immediately be defeated. what did the chef decide to find out at the show of the berlin bureau mikhail antonov not so long ago , planes with americans and evacuees from afghanistan landed at the rammstein base, the shameful picture of flight had to be obscured in the eyes of society by something rating. soon the elections to the congress and, behold, another proxy war is organized. now something is needed that could immediately pass off as a victory. pentagon chief austin praises reznikov's colleague for the national battalion. and, of course, yourself. but how good, fighting with nato weapons. we should be together more. we have allocated more than $5 billion for self-defense equipment for ukraine my trip to kiev increased my admiration for how the ukrainian armed forces are implementing these capabilities

press conference in poland, and further statements by austin that followed already at the ramstein airbasehere he gathered 40 of his colleagues from this. well, probably the new nato that they want to put together and they think that it will be this organization will be more effective. although in general, it is in no way limited by any formal framework from of this from this voyage, so to speak, the american military. if only i could single out something important. this statement. uh, well, in fact, the head of the american general staff, general mile, who said that time is now working against ukraine uh, there are only a few weeks left for ukraine uh. well, somehow, it seems to them, it could break, that is, the assessment of the us military is more realistic than the assessment of the white house and the state department, which is largely saturated with all the same elements of propaganda. and, of course, it is indicative and eloquently the reaction of the us military-industrial complex, which has already started too. well, roughly speaking, to strain about this attraction of unpreceden

no, not a musical group, but for lovers of heavier 40 defense ministers gathered at the rammstein airbasen germany to discuss the supply of heavy weapons to ukraine, i was supposed to support ukraine in such a consolidated way after the defeat. the battle is not russia in this battle, the war is moving into a new phase. and now we have to prepare for the battle for the donbass, the format itself looked like an attempt by washington to put together a military alliance that goes beyond nato all to the american air base directly involved in the ukrainian conflict. at least as far as conducting reconnaissance and delivering goods to kiev, non-bloc countries also arrived. if putin expected to divide the west, then in an unexpected way it turned out the other way around and the meeting of defense ministers took place, because it became clear that the confrontation was dragging on if russia did not have nuclear weapons. the west could perhaps have reacted much more aggressively former adviser to biden. michael barrienbaum is like a real hawk. you see this meeting as epoch-making events. we can s
