How is the deficit artificial? If you read realist military gossip, we're being strained heavily especially on air defense supplies.

Counter question:

Countries loudly proclaiming to support Ukraine with equipment and ammunition:

  • don't send equipment because eScAlATiOn
  • don't send ammunition because of internal bickering
  • don't send either unless getting refunded
  • advocate for their neighbours to do more while doing nothing themselves
  • and so on...

...and in basically every case the problematic faction in the discussion is (more or less openly) pro-Russia.

How is Ukraine deficit "natural" then?

Bakhmut is stalling, vatnik scum. Russia is winning too slowl- W-wait! I changed my mind! We were stabbed in the back! In America, artillery shell and Patriot missiles grow on trees. They must be hiding more! What is that sound? Oh fu-

Sorry, I don't speak troll propaganda so you would need to give me some context or at least post stuff in a language I understand...

I am imitating the arc of the nonsense you spectators spout. I knew it would end with the whole stab in the back nonsense. Maidan successful ๐Ÿ˜Ž
