    That is why today it is possible to close the border with Ukraine and deprive it of other support. If I were a soldier, the first thing I would want for Christmas would not be a big, fat modern pistol, but a bulletproof vest and a CAT tourniquet.
     
    The only solution to this problem is the abolition of preferences for grain trade in the EU. One of the main sources of income for the existence of Ukraine. Yes, some of this income may be stolen (it is impossible to fight corruption in one fell swoop, especially in a country that is at war), but a much larger part of these funds allows the Ukrainian economy to stay afloat. That is why the EU gave us these preferences
    Your arguments are ridiculous. They are strikingly similar to MAGA Republicans (or years of Russian propaganda) saying that aid to Ukraine should be cut off because it is a corrupt country.
    Nobody forces volunteers to pay bribes on the border with Ukraine. If they want to help, they help, if they don’t want to, they don’t help.
    The assertion that our journalists are not interested in corruption in Ukraine simply does not stand up to criticism. We have entire YouTube channels that investigate corruption and expose corrupt officials. Thanks to their investigations, many corrupt officials find themselves behind bars. One of these investigators is BIGUS.Moreover, journalists in the West write their articles about corruption in Ukraine based on investigations by Ukrainian journalists.
    The claim that drones and drone parts are sold on OLX is also nonsense. Thanks to FPV strike statistics, we can all see exactly where these drones are heading.
    The statement about the “faces” of Ukrainians is especially outrageous. “We must stop helping Ukraine, because Ukrainians have Soviet, not European faces.” You have to recommend this idea to MAGA supporters. I am sure that this statement will gain great popularity among them. By the way, I recommend taking a closer look at the fat and arrogant faces of Polish farmers scattering Ukrainian grain collected from mined fields.
     
    Polish logic. It turns out that the Ukrainians themselves blocked the borders and blame the Poles for it
    So, you have said enough arguments to draw a conclusion. Ukrainians are arrogant, corrupt bastards with Soviet faces, who themselves blocked the border with Poland and blame the Poles for this. It is necessary to immediately close the border with them, ending their support. Help suffering Polish farmers instead.
    To be honest, I personally don’t care who exactly profited from these supplies. What worries me today is that the soldiers on the front lines have enough resources to contain the plague coming from the east. I think people who help Ukraine in its struggle (and are not looking for reasons to stop supporting) think the same way as me.
    I hope you understand how many bureaucratic obstacles volunteers will have to overcome in order to transport items purchased with donations along with military cargo? These things are needed at the front today.
     
    What cunning and resourceful bastards - they came up with the opportunity to deliver goods bypassing the demands of a gang of random outcasts. What right does this bunch of greedy characters have to check drivers’ documents and inspect cargo at the border? I thought this is what Polish border guards are for?
    Another brilliant reason to stop supplies to Ukraine. Ukraine is already feeling great. Almost too good. Why does the population of a warring country need food and civilian goods?
    If everything were as you claim, the EU would have abolished benefits for Ukraine long ago. Oh yes, the cunning Europeans conspired with the greedy Ukrainians to deprive the poor Poles of income.
    Oh, so the Ukrainians are destroying Poland? Then why don't the Poles join the Russians and save their country from the vile Ukrainians? 
    I see very well how actively the Poles support this social group. At least judging by the post you posted above.

    Well, of course not. We need to help destroy a neighboring state (whose combat effectiveness largely depends on the supply of volunteers from abroad) and worsen our situation by establishing common borders with the most aggressive state of our time, which has repeatedly stated its readiness to destroy Poland.
    I must admit, I did not expect such a massive use of FPV drones (spare parts for manufacturing are supplied, among other things, through Poland). Today our front line is based on the massive use of these drones.
    Believe me, I and my friends don’t care at all whether the protesters in Poland are carrying Ukrainian or Russian flags. Just give us the opportunity to continue our fight. I must say that Turkey freely trades with Moscow, helps resell stolen Ukrainian grain, and supplies spare parts for Russian weapons. And yet, no one here even thinks of calling the Turks traitors, and all because the Turks never promised us full assistance in our war and never called us brothers.
    You say that as if Ukraine now has no problems with supplies, and everything that I described above is just little things that I came up with. Let me remind you that the Ukrainian army is critically dependent on the supply of volunteers. Starting from hemostatic tourniquets, radio stations and night vision devices, and ending with drones and cars.

    Russian planes are no longer afraid to fly as close as possible to Ukrainian positions to drop controlled air bombs. It looks like a well-planned operation, with lancets destroying long-range air defenses and planes dropping bombs from high altitude to avoid SHORAD. This tactic is becoming more and more effective. I laugh when people here claim that the F-16 won't make a difference on the battlefield. After all, the F-16 is capable of carrying a wide variety of guided bombs. 50 F-16s is about the same as the Russians have SU34s on the southern sector of the front

    But in the video, a Ukrainian journalist, allegedly on behalf of a Belarusian company, negotiates directly with a Polish company to sell rapeseed. Without any intermediaries.
    Poor farmers in Poland. I always remember their emaciated, exhausted faces from malnutrition during rocket attacks on Russia. At these moments I feel a little better - it turns out there are people on earth who suffer more than me.
    But in general, you will agree that the protest of a small number of marginalized people in Poland has expanded significantly. Now they are supported by the majority of the Polish population and even the Polish government.
    And soon we will see how Ukrainians, taking pity on the plight of Polish farmers, will begin to collect donations for them in order to protect them from starvation. How wrong I was about Ukraine’s allies earlier.

    This area is a real hell for troops trying to cross to the other side. Absolutely open land, visible for many kilometers, cut by many small swamps and branches of the Dnieper. If troops decide to attack here, they will have to cross not just one riverbed, but several, and this under the gun of enemy ATGMs, helicopters and FPVs.

    I watched a video about the history of corruption and Russia’s use of “useful idiots” in the West.
    Oh my God. This has been going on for literally centuries. During all this time, this scheme has changed little. Cash handouts, flattery and sycophancy force even the smartest and most educated people in the West to serve the interests of Moscow.
    Leibniz and Voltaire, Bernard Shaw and Henri Barbusse, Einstein and Romain Roland. And also, of course, a number of human rights and social organizations and communities. All this is painfully reminiscent of the current situation in the West.
    Unfortunately the video is without translation

    For some reason, only the tactical or strategic reasons for this or that Russian action are always assessed, but the moral and psychological reasons are completely ignored. For example, why does Russia need to seize Avdeevka or Bakhmut. Or why Russia is so persistent in hunting for Western armored vehicles.
    The capture of Avdeevka had a significant moral and psychological impact on both the Russian or Ukrainian population, and on Western citizens. The Russians received a morale boost from the fact that they were able to take an impregnable fortress that had resisted for 10 years, which indicates an improvement in their army. Ukrainians and Westerners received a decrease in morality, for the same reasons. It's the same with Western military equipment. The demonstration of even a single burning Abrams or leopards helps to reduce the faith of Western people in the invincibility of their military equipment.
    But most importantly, the voices of those who are against sending Western equipment to Ukraine are sounding louder and more convincing. This is precisely the goal that the Russians are pursuing. To deprive Ukraine of Western support is the main goal of both Avdiivka and the possible capture of Robotino. Pay attention to the number of defeatist articles in the world's media after each such event. It would not be surprising if Russia sponsors such articles, increasing the moral effect of these events and further reducing Western support for Ukraine.
    You have all discussed a lot here about the influence of this or that type of weapons supplied to Ukraine on the course of hostilities. ANY type of weapons supplied to Ukraine has a significant impact on the war. On the one hand, it shows Ukrainians that they are not alone in their struggle and significantly improves their morale. On the other hand, it shows the Russians that the West is not going to leave Ukraine without help in the face of the aggressor and that the end of the war is still very far away, which means they will have to continue to pay in blood and significant inconvenience for each newly captured senseless piece of land.
