In June, as soon as the counteroffensive began, Ukraine’s military intelligence claimed that the army had almost run out of its Soviet era 152mm artillery ammunition and was forced to use NATO standard 155mm shells. These claims caused large stir in NATO, which began actively looking for ammunition for poor Ukraine.
In fact, Kiev’s Western patrons have been supplying Ukraine with shells nonstop and Kiev even launched its large counteroffensive despite the alleged shortage.
Washington, referring to the depletion of conventional ammunition from the Ukrainian military, sent dangerous cluster munitions to Kiev. However, on July 19, conventional 152-mm artillery shells were already included in the next package of US aid. At the same time, Washington announced that it was going to increase the production of ammunition.
London proudly declared that it had delivered 15 times more “critical” artillery ammunition to Ukraine than it had planned a year ago, more than 200 thousand rounds instead of 16 thousand.
The French Europlasma group’s subsidiary Les Forges de Tarbes has reportedly concluded two contracts with the Ukroboronprom Group for the production of 155-mm artillery shells for Ukraine. In 2022, the capacities of military the industrial facilities in Tarbes were drastically increased with investment of about 15 million euros over three years.
Even Bulgaria, which officially refused to produce shells for Ukraine, claiming that it has no necessary facilities, has been supplying artillery ammunition through the third party countries. According to documents published in the US, it turned out that Sofia had been supplying 155-mm shells to Washington since the very beginning of hostilities.
These are just some of the efforts being made by NATO countries to allegedly support Ukraine.
In its turn, Kiev declares its desires to shoot 18 thousand 152 / 155mm caliber rounds per day; but it only can use 4 thousand.
Despite the loud claims, the pace of production in the US and Europe leaves much to be desired. Currently producing about 20 thousand shells per month, Washington plans to increase this number up to 70 thousand. The EU wants to reach the production goal of one million shells of all calibers per year. These are largely assessed to be pretty odious plans. Moreover, not all shells will be sent to the Ukrainian army.
According to the most optimistic forecasts, NATO will be able to provide Ukraine with a combined total of 130 thousand 152 / 155mm shells per month that is only 10 percent more than Ukraine is shooting now.
The West has no goal to lead Ukraine to victory but rather to only prolong the conflict.
The international hype with the search for shells for Ukraine is aimed not at arming the Ukrainian army, but at strengthening the capacities of NATO itself, which is preparing for war with Russia, since the Ukrainian army has demonstrated its impotence on the battlefield.
“the west has no goal to lead ukraine to victory but rather to only prolong the conflict.”yes, same as mr putin has “no goal to lead russia to victory but rather to only prolong the conflict.” so the jewish ruled west and the not less-jewish ruled east both are very happy to have managed to make stupid white slaves jumping to each others throats resp. to have made them going to war in fact against themselves, on behalf of their hidden crypto-jewish governments.
breaking news ! now even iranian government urges russia to retreat from ukraine !! mohammad bagher ghalibaf, the speaker of the parliament of iran, has warned russia:”russia should know that iran’s cooperation with its neighbors depends on the observance of the ‘red lines’ of the iranian people, including sovereignty and territorial integrity.”
nice try propoganda clown. taken out of context. original refers to several small iranian islands in which the russians initially did not support iran’s historical claims.
you are one cheap whore.
the only red line i see in ukraine is clownboys bleeding nose after a 72 hr binge
your stupid pet hasim_the_degenerate went to eat zionist perverted ass for the weekend. you two fake ass western pigs are a joke.
bollocks!! the only red line is the one nato crossed.
did your mother have any kids that actually lived ?
i heard she had 3 kids – one of each
you are a little liar and manipulator
change your name to wadim-the-pathetic-fool.
russia seems so desperate to have good relationship with her perennial enemy anglo-saxon race headed by evil england. that explains her inferiority complex and all reaction to western provocation. always ready to negotiate rather than finish the job at hand. russia’survival depends on killing england as a nation state of parasites. but russia is expert in turning almost won war into a quagmire as in syria in 2016, donbass in 2015, ukraine in 2022.
the us will keep trying to attack other countries until its capital city is occupied and the criminal enterprise that is this corrupt regime is wiped off the map
this is the only place where i can read comments that actually make sense
so forever if china does not do it cause who else would even dare to try? hell even nazi germany and imperial japan (besides pearl harbor) never dared to attack the us mainland. the only ones that ever did were the british and they are on the same team. so usa are safe.
begging ze eu for bullets, throwing their whole lives away…. begging ze eu for bullets… begging eu softly, for bullets, taking out whole lives, for bullets, begging for bullets…
won’t matter for russia, nato cannot even take on north korea, let alone syria, afghanistan, yugoslavia, iraq and even tribes in mali.

if putin and russia thought that the u.s would see reason at the state of the battlefield they are wrong, the u.s has been planning this war for a long time, the goal, to take control of all russian assets and the black sea, that is why crimea is the aim.
the u.s will look on this as a softening up phase and once the ukrainians are spent then its natos turn, putin is wrong allowing time for the west to finalize its stratergy, you cannot make omelette without breaking eggs!
“you cannot make omelette without breaking eggs!”
true but you can launch many iskander-m ensuring there are no eggs left to break.
because in order to “$ave the globe” … we have to raze the globe!…
nato are in no state to go to war with russia every european country is a mess with no military to speak of. nato is a fraud.
if only bunker rat putin was listening to u and would have not started shity military operation over the paranoid fear about nato.
you said it urself, nato is a fraud,so why worry and thus loose 230k+ soldiers, 4000+tanks, european energy market and all of civil aviation+ car industrie ?
events will show the motley collection of military misfits commonly known as nato will be just as inept on the battlefield as ukraine has been, and when industrial centres in europe and the usa start receiving hits nato will start to fragment.
war is good for the depopulation objectives of the w e f and other eugenicists. profiteers also relish the profits from death. to the last ukraine imbecile fighting to make the billionaires in kiev even richer.
time is of the essence, you don’t give an enemy time to fomulate new tactics and time to move their industry to a war footing.
it is industry and logistics that win wars, the british empire should of lost ww1 with all the blunders it made but eventually the might of its empire and the u.s overwhelmed germany .
russia cannot afford to allow u.s to bring its empire to bear because then china has to pick a side and that will end in nuclear holocaust.
china’s already chosen a side. it chose russia. biden’s ass-clown adviser, sullivan, drove russia and china into each other’s arms
now england blatantly admits to her plotting and managing the ukraine war openly. quote “russian intelligence service slams mi6 chief for asking russians to spy for london”. then why does russia not sabotage england from within – there must be disgruntled elements in police state of england. after all this is what english pirates do to others. ultimately mi6 hq and cheltenham ham must be bombed to kill all english spies
“spy for london” the uk government must be full of absolute morons. in the 60’s and 70’s mi5 and mi6 was riddled with kgb agents like kim philby that fed the fools any disinformation the kremlin wanted them to have while stealing their secrets. philby went back to moscow to retire, made a hero of the soviet union and given a dacha to live out the rest of his days in luxury. now the dim twats actually invite double agents to come and work for them? talk about utter stupidity.
these are all legitimate targets for russia! will the civillians actually care if their military factories are blown up by those whom they are being used on? the shareholders and dogs baying for blood they will mind, let them screw them.
and the gun barrels…???
nato prepares for war? nato’s got about 40 000 troops ready and able to go to war right now. and about 80 000 available at 30 days notice. that is a joke if it wants to face russia. what about nato’s 3.6 million available troops? most of those clowns are soyboys and girls that haven’t had any military training and wouldn’t know the shooty end of a gun if it rose up and bit their stinky asses.

verluste von 700 ukrainischen soldaten ohne jeglichen gewinn gelten als “normaler” tag für die ukraine an der front. jeden tag erleidet die ukraine untragbare verluste – und kommt nirgendwo hin. am ende dieses jahres 2023 wird es keine ukraine mehr geben, wie sie in den letzten jahrzehnten existiert hat.
there already isn’t a ukraine. it died last year when putin took it’s industrial heart and most of its ports. what you’re seeing now are just the last jerks of a corpse,
