On September 6, the United States hosted the 24th meeting of the so-called Ukraine Defense Contact Group (UDCG) at the Ramstein Air Base in Germany. It was chaired by US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and was the first UDCG meeting in nearly three months (the last one was held in NATO HQ on June 13).
During the event, Austin stated that “the meeting would address Ukraine’s most urgent needs”, namely the Kiev regime’s dwindling air defense capabilities and long-range strike platforms. Apart from Austin and the Neo-Nazi junta frontman Volodymyr Zelensky, the meeting was attended by the latter’s Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, as well as the US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, USAF General Charles Q. Brown. Zelensky formally thanked NATO for its so-called “military aid” deliveries, but still didn’t miss the opportunity to complain about the “need for more”, insisting that many of the pledged SAM (surface-to-air missile) systems are yet to be handed over to the Kiev regime forces.
The 24th UDCG meeting saw the official approval of the latest $250 million weapons package that the troubled Biden administration promised to its Neo-Nazi junta puppets. However, according to the mainstream propaganda machine, the package didn’t include the longer-range missiles that Zelensky has been “begmanding” intensively for the last several months. It did include the “standard” HIMARS munitions (although it’s not entirely clear what that entails), air defense systems and SAMs, artillery rounds, as well as handheld systems such as the “Stinger” MANPADS, among other things. The package was pushed through by the so-called “Presidential Drawdown Authority” (PDA), which allows the troubled Biden administration to draw weapons from US military stockpiles. This is part of the highly controversial $95 billion “military aid” deal that went into effect back in April. Nearly 65% of it (or $61 billion) went to the Kiev regime, with the rest going to Israel and Taiwan.
Strangely enough, Austin showed some restraint when it comes to the Neo-Nazi junta’s requests for these NATO-sourced weapons to be used against targets deeper within Russia. Namely, when asked if the US would support this, Austin responded that “no single capability would be a game changer” in the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict.
“I don’t believe that one specific capability is going to be decisive. Our approach to integrating things and to making sure that they have the right skill sets to employ those capabilities and those capabilities are linked to specific objectives,” he said, adding: “I think Ukraine has a pretty significant capability of its own to address targets that are well beyond the range of ATACMS or even ‘Storm Shadow’ for that matter. There are a lot of targets in Russia, a big country, obviously. And there’s a lot of capability that Ukraine has in terms of UAVs and other things to address those targets.”
Austin also stated that the Russian military supposedly “pulled back much of its military assets, leaving them out of range of the ATACMS”, obviously referring to the tactical ballistic missiles with a range of 300 km that Washington DC delivered late last year. The statement obviously shows that the Neo-Nazi junta certainly has weapons with a range to strike targets hundreds of km into Russia, but what it really needs is US/NATO ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) support for more accurate long-range strikes that could destroy high-priority targets.
However, after the unsuccessful assassination attempt on President Vladimir Putin and Defense Minister Andrei Belousov back in late July, Washington DC might be reluctant to provide such support, as they cannot guarantee that the Kiev regime wouldn’t use NATO-sourced long-range weapons to try it again or at least strike major Russian cities, including Moscow. Considering the fact that the Kremlin told the Pentagon, in no uncertain terms, what awaits NATO if another attack on a high-ranking Russian official happens, the political West might actually pause for a second (if nothing else). Warmongers and war criminals in Washington DC might be far from mentally stable, but it’s very possible that some form of survival mechanism in their minds still functions (although that doesn’t stop them from making plans to wage thermonuclear war against the entire world). However, it seems Zelensky doesn’t have such considerations in the slightest and just wants an escalation.
“We need to have this long-range capability, not only on the divided territory of Ukraine, but also on the Russian territory, so that Russia is motivated to seek peace,” he said, adding: “We need to make Russian cities and even Russian soldiers think about what they need: peace or Putin.”
Obviously, such a threat cannot be ignored and Moscow simply wants to make it clear to the US-led political West that they would also feel the consequences of such attacks. Just like the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) sent their superfast, high-flying MiG-31BM interceptors to disrupt NATO ISR operations over the Black Sea, (launched in support of terrorist attacks on Russian civilians), the Kremlin will surely repeat the same with any other similar attempt that may lead to consequences for its people and leadership.
In addition, these long-range terror strikes on Russian cities accomplish nothing, as they rarely hit military targets. The victims are almost exclusively civilians who have nothing to do with military operations. However, as Zelensky said, this is precisely the goal, one that was already announced by the Neo-Nazi junta and the intelligence apparatus of the endemically Russophobic United Kingdom. This is precisely why Moscow is likely to respond quite strongly if this continues.
It can also be argued that the Kiev regime’s strategy of perpetual escalation is giving no results, as its forces in Donbass are getting obliterated nonetheless. Attempts to achieve PR “victories” and shift attention away from the Neo-Nazi junta’s string of lost battles are only making things worse for global security, as NATO-sourced weapons used in the Kursk oblast (region) incursion can only reinforce Russia’s readiness to respond directly to the world’s most vile racketeering cartel.
The political West might think it’s making the Kremlin look “weak” because the latter is yet to retaliate more violently, but what they’re really achieving is that the US and NATO simply look more bellicose and even barbaric. The world wants peace, but the most aggressive power pole on the planet is determined to ensure it can never be achieved. However, even the political West pauses when it realizes it went too far. Still, we shouldn’t live in the illusion they won’t try again, as their entire modus operandi is to probe near-peer adversaries and see how far they go.

this bed wench harris tether would be beaten to death by the white supremacists of the following organizations: ss aidar, ss kraken, wolfsangel (aka azov), waffen ss nachtigall (who are now in kursk killings civilians), leibstandarte adolf hitler, right sektor – all of them hate mongrels like her, and all of them are leading the ukrainian government and military. all of them funded by the us tax payers(incl. niggas)
you focus on the wrong things. who holds ukraine’s international bonds?
ukraine’s sovereign bonds are held by major fund managers. filings gathered by emaxx show that blackrock, the world’s largest asset manager, had positions in pretty much all of the bonds
…
as did pimco, fidelity and alliance bernstein.
moreover, washington wants ukraine’s resources:
kiev is sitting on a “trillion dollars’ worth of minerals” that are “good” for the us economy, us senator lindsey graham says
those bonds are “guaranteed” by the uk and eu – not the us. so their taxpayers are on the hook for the hundreds of billions zelensky and his cronies have stolen.
that’s neither here nor there. there are many bonds and many guaranteed bonds. and. the guaranteed bonds are mostly guaranteed by the us gov. in fact there is a 50b loan in the pipeline backed by frozen russian assets and guaranteed by the us government. regardless, it’s a racquet from every angle, down to the “aid packages” paid for by tax payers and enriching the war profiteers.
yes its a racket the idea is to deceive the public totally. always has been all the way back to babylon and even earlier right from satan deceiving eve into deceiving adam. as the first lawyer arguing his case.
and uks parliament is the kings government not the peoples
or, its the government of the king not like americas government of the people, for the people, by the people. fundamentally like chalk and cheese.
it’s called black rock because that’s the saturn, the black rock the saturn the vatican worships during saturnalia which they made xmas, pretending to believe that’s jesus s birthday. it most likely wasn’t at all. that’s when still as pagans the saturn worshippers practiced juvenalia which was the religious celebration whereby the well respected elite families would bring their kiddies along to a n all ages orgy.
black rock that has 3 offices and each is numbered 555. ie 5+5+5=15 making 5+1=6. or 666 recall david bowies first wife said basically paraphrasing, that it was england’s witches class that made him a star. recall his final album was about the black star. stars are rocks once they die and mick jagger called his queen, ” the queen of the witches”
you keep cutting and posting that. normally moderators would block that saying you’ve already posted that comment.
well, maybe because other than you he has a valid point?! and valid points that matters can be reposted if they make a difference
why can’t you talk about black people respectfully? some of us want russia to succeed because russia is fighting the colonist. but you most of you foolish slavs have some kinda of grudge against black people but for what? your enemies are white like you – just as you said but failed to see the irony.
i am not slav. and black ppl who votes for harris (who never did anything for black people – much on the contrary, she sent black mothers to jail back in her time as da) dont deserve my respect, so i call them coons, theters (who are afraid of trump) and negros
gerome, go back to wherever you came from, which is probably a hasbarat camp in lvov.
i dont follow orders from inferiors like u. just go to the desert and die white mongol
huso bosnic talks nonsences once again. his serviano brain is malfunctioning.
you’re transparent today as isaid yesterday and jewush pimps a lie, nazi pimps the truth imo
any public show is just that. austins texas capital the austin name is one of england’s most popular car makers its symbol was like a viking warrior head. the blonde haired blue eyed vikings. texas is the only place on earth apart from the inns in the city, where private land ownership is real. real estates the only real wealth. people are suggesting now that texas will be the new administrative finacial hub of the new ussr, america, north and south and it will incorporate catholic canada.
and austin possibly originates from austrveg see here , austrveg, the viking silk road you tube for some clues as to what’s going on really amongst the elite educated circles with their family ancestries knowledge, as common as.
one thing i know is most white people in this world are stupid and are blinded by racism and are too stupid to think around it. some of us black people want russia to succeed because russia is fighting the colonist. but most whites are way too stupid to think objectively and you have some kinda of in-built deep hatred against black people which prevents your brain from thinking but for what? your enemies are whites and have always been, remind me what color was adolf? he looked just like you.
drago the neo nazi russia’s parrot as usual the gut has less brain than a chicken , keep parroying and beggar
jens holm is that you? i could tell from the disorganaziized thought.
