U.S. eyes new weapons for Ukraine as Kyiv fears new Russian offensive

Group of "experts" for POLITICO

Patriot missiles, bomb kits and more training are on the table as Moscow looks to take more ground.
...
In addition to finalizing plans to send the Patriot missile defense system, the administration is also weighing sending other weapons such as Joint Direct Attack Munition kits, which convert unguided aerial munitions into smart bombs, and Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bombs, which would significantly extend Ukraineโ€™s strike range, according to two U.S. officials and another person familiar with the matter.
...
#TransFormatorBuzzes ๐Ÿ’ค :
Well, you remember, "to the last Ukrainian..." That is it. Ukrainian soldiers do not matter, Ukrainian civilians matter even less, as they may be "Russian collaborants". The whole country is a huge testings ground for the new weapons. However, in ammount not sufficient to change the real disposition on the ground.

Forget negotiations. Officials see Ukraine war stretching for months โ€” or years

Speculation is rife about whether major capitals could ultimately press for talks between Kyiv and Moscow. Yet that seems unlikely.

By Lili Bayer for POLITICO

Donโ€™t expect negotiations between Ukraine and Russia anytime soon โ€” in fact, they might be years away. 
As Ukrainians face a difficult winter, speculation is rife about whether major capitals could ultimately press for talks between Kyiv and Moscow. Stubbornly high energy prices, dwindling weapons stockpiles and a soporific economy have all fueled chatter that some of Ukraineโ€™s allies may lean on the country to at least open a dialogue with the enemy.
...
Ukraine is heavily reliant on Western, notably American, arms. And its war plans are thus tied to the White Houseโ€™s willingness to keep the defensive assistance flowing.
While Joe Biden has shown no signs of backing away from Ukraine, it might be the type of weapons heโ€™s willing to give that could turn the conflict into a prolonged stalemate. What Ukrainian forces need to fully claim victory, said CNASโ€™ Kendall-Taylor, are more advanced weapons systems such as longer-range artillery. 
...
#TransFormatorBuzzes ๐Ÿ’ค :
Western politicians do not care about Ukrainian people. They want this carnage to continue forever, at least as long as it may harm and weaken Russia. They may supply weapons and ammunition, but will try to keep away from a direct confrontation with Russia. Once again: "until the last Ukrainian!"

Zelensky said that today in Kyiv and 14 regions water supply was lost along with electricity, and also thanked the air defense forces and all the fighters for their brilliant work.
#TransFormatorBuzzes ๐Ÿ’ค :
He certainly is a good artist, even from a very poor circumstances he is trying to make a strong show. I would admit that Russians have a different tendency, even at a reasonably good performance, they may be looking first at what went wrong. Hopefully that will make the overall performance better...

WALL STREET JOURNAL SLAMS GERMAN MIGRATION POLICY, POINTS TO TERRIBLE UNEMPLOYMENT SITUATION

Since 2015, more than 13 million #migrants have arrived in #Germany, yet German companies continue to struggle to find suitable workers

December 15, 2022

The paper raises the question of the โ€œparadoxicalโ€ situation regarding why Germany continues to lack so many workers despite taking in nearly 13 million people since 2015, citing data from the Federal Statistical Office.

The problem, the paper notes, is that the migrants who are coming are simply not filling the needs of Germanyโ€™s high-skill economy.

Of the 800,000 working-age Syrians and Afghans who arrived during the 2015 migrant crisis, only a third of them actually have a tax-paying job.

#Unemployment among foreigners stands at 12 percent, while for Germans it is 5 percent, and as Remix News has also reported in the past, those migrants who are working often work in low-skilled and low-paying jobs that require the state to continue paying out welfare benefits.


โ€œMany refugees are ill-suited for the German high-skilled labor market,โ€ the paper writes, and Germany is also โ€œnot good at training them.โ€

Translated from RIA Novosti:
The Russian Armed Forces received a batch of the latest "Penicillin" sound-thermal reconnaissance systems โ€“ they effectively detect the positions of enemy artillery and transmit coordinates for their destruction, an informed source told RIA Novosti.

"Penicillin" have already confirmed their effectiveness in battles in Ukraine, including in the fight against NATO artillery supplied to Ukrainian troops, another source reported earlier.

The complexes are able to see cannons and rocket artillery, as well as anti-aircraft and tactical missiles by acoustic and thermal waves from shots and explosions. They give the operator the exact coordinates of the enemy gun, and the time to obtain the coordinates of a single target firing does not exceed 5 seconds.

17.12.2022
The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, considers the inclusion of his daughters in the EU sanctions lists a reason for pride and another factor that unites his family.

โ€œDear Aishat and Khadijat! Keep it up!
You are my small and fragile daughters, but the whole West is afraid of you like fire.
I am immensely proud of you, my beloved. Welcome to the EU sanctions list.
Another circumstance that unites an already close-knit family,โ€
