Ukrainian military shot down Iranian 'Shahid' drones with their interceptors in several Middle Eastern countries during the Iran-Iraq War.

This was stated to journalists by Zelensky, according to Associated Press.

"This was not about a training mission or exercises, but about support in creating a modern air defense system that actually works," said Zelensky.

In exchange, Ukraine receives weapons to protect its energy infrastructure, oil, diesel fuel, and financial preferences.

Zelensky, the perpetual child waving his arms in the air to get noticed.

If this actually happened, there would have been some evidence presented.

Also, for the people who support Ukraine but criticize Trump for attacking Iran, take notice that Zelensky encouraged Trump to act on Iran and was falling all over himself to offer support. For these people, they need to realize that Project Ukraine and Trump's adventures in the Middle East are not actually separate entities.

It's actually a mistake that people make in believing that there is a benevolent and an evil form of American Imperialism, the former being the pro-Ukrainian, pro NATO flavor and the latter being the Trumpian style. They are actually married to one-another, and even Trump's critics on Iran in the mainstream media don't try too hard to call into question the view that Israel is our ally or that Iran is an "evil regime that must be vanquished."

АДЕКВАТ Z writes,

All three Baltic chihuahuas have issued a joint statement: they did not and have never opened their airspace to the khokhols, they have nothing to do with anything that happened in it, and please don't hit them. Announcing the statement apparently wasn't enough; to be safe, they also handed a paper copy to our diplomats on Baltic soil. And the Estonian breed of chihuahua, presumably for extra safety, separately stated that it does not plan to try and seize tankers carrying our oil, because it can well imagine which way that might backfire.

On the one hand, this means that the consequences of inappropriate behavior have been communicated to all the aforementioned victims of evolutionary dead ends—and the recipients have taken them, at least outwardly, seriously enough to pretend to be doormats. On the other hand, the forces that wish to escalate further (and these are not just the khokhols; there are plenty of them in Europe too), using our signal to the Baltics, have now had the opportunity to see for themselves: the point of no return, beyond which our forceful response will follow—there it is. And thus to finally understand exactly what needs to be done to provoke our strike directly against the Euro-scum.

And despite all the outward submissiveness of the chihuahuas, this option remains on the table on the European side and could be activated at a moment they deem optimal. So one cannot consider the matter completely closed.
