Retired Air Vice-Marshal and defence expert Sean Bell looks at the likely next movements by Russia, with speculation President Putin is focusing efforts to the east of the country.
The problem is that the Russians are already controlling certain territories in the east. And if Russia would scale down their goals of just carving those areas from Ukraine, that means all they need to do is defend those. Ukraine would have to do the attacking which is a role reversal and certainly much harder task.

It's better to stop Putin in Ukraine rather than near Warsaw or Berlin.
Give Ukraine those jets, tanks etc.
#StandwithUkraine 🇺🇦💪

All civilians who are not ready to die in east Ukraine must move out on safer grounds and territory. The fight will be more brutal with a butcher general.

Ukraine becomes a place for east and west to try and evaluate their weapons , no initiative to offer solution from anybody, so people will suffer

The Backdoor That Keeps Russian Oil Flowing Into Europe
Shell will buy Russian oil if it is at least half mixed with oil from another country.
“In the case of Shell, the company made changes to the so-called general terms and conditions of its contracts to allow Russian blending … The point is to sell a barrel of which only 49.99% is produced in Russia. According to Shell, since the rest 50.01% comes from other sources, the oil cargo is technically not of Russian origin, ” the news agency writes.

Similar was the situation during WW II. 30-50 % of cargo ships were sunken by German submarines.

The mastiff APC is very useful for quick deployment of ground troops in an ever changing battlefield that's been taken back or lost . Rapidity is a fundamental part of modern warfare .

Not one UK politician has said when all these arms and platforms will arrive. They have dodged the direct question every single time!!

Military equipment will not help Ukraine. The only thing which can help Ukraine is the good negotiations with Russia.

Money during wars grows much. As what we can see through military aid. Spending spree through equipments will never stop.
