I think at this point the unspoken truth is that we must have a military that needs to be a deterrent to the US as well.

Could you back that up with a citation?
That is not really out of line with the title, especially if you line it up with the rest of the article. 1200 tanks that need major repairs does not mean a potential 1200 combat-ready vehicles. It means that you can, if you are really good, salvage 60% of that by cannibalizing the rest.
They drew down 350 tanks last year. Oryx confirmed 3800+ tank losses over the past 3 years, Ukraine claims 10000+. This means that they have enough tanks to last them another 6-8 months if we're being incredibly generous, if they could do 2 years of work in an instant. This is practically an empty stock.
And that doesn't count that these are the last vehicles for a reason. They are not 1200 T-72s that can be restored to full working order, it's mostly going to be very badly damaged and worn T-55s or even T-34s, compared to which an RPG-7 is space-age technology.
A lot of "tough dudes" could use one though. Mental health is in shambles across the world.
Trump basically forcing half the world off of Russian oil, skyrocketing other oil prices and thus basically solving climate change out of spite would be so funny.
The whole point is it would severely disadvantage China for its currency to become the international trade currency. They would lose control over it much like the US does not really control the dollar.
BRICS wants a new currency to replace the dollar AFAIK.
They might still cum from the top left one

Starts out with space ninja stuff, and progressively gets weirder. Currently it's the time travel zombie boyband clone hunting story arc. Still with space ninjas though.
Can you translate that from Medvedev to sane?
These small pushes are important to counter the narrative that it is only Russians making these small pushes.
That said, the front hasn't moved significantly in a year. I hope this senseless killing will stop, but I am not hopeful. It really seems that as long as there is a Russia in its current form, war will not stop.
Yeah but technically New Zealand was named after the Dutch province of Zeeland, not the Danish island.
