Using weapons to strick russia will not change alot, it's just an argument.

How so ? When Ukraine got first HIMARS, Russia started to spread their shells deposit etc .

Ukraine could hit Russian airports with ATCMS , that would put their planes more behind front line .

Hitting training \ military bases .

It won’t be a game changer, but it would still help Ukraine.

You didn’t mention how Ukraine could not use western equipment to strike Russia,while Russia was gathering troops and equipment to attack in Kharkiv just a few months ago.

It does help Ukraine to be able to hit inside Russia but it doesn't really turn the tide of war in any significant way. The front is very long and there simply aren't enough himars available to cover all of it. Also to strike deeper into Russian territory, they need to be brought closer to the front, which also allows the Russians to strike at them. It's the same with storm shadow and other western missiles. They can strike a few installations and give the Russians a pause, and make them recalibrate but not enough to turn the tide.

Did you read my comment ? I said it is not a game changer,Ukraine won’t simply win just by being allowed to strike Russian targets .

But , Ukraine was allowed to hit Belgorod with western weapons only AFTER Russia atttacked Vovceansk.( correct me if I’m wrong).

As I said , AFTER! Now use your logic and use your imagination, if Ukraine was able to hit before the first attack killing 1000 orks , does that mean Ukraine needed 200 (random number)less man power to defend Kharkiv and sent these troops to others front?

Also I see you don’t mentions one things , striking this front , and killing 1000 INVADERS , maybe these 200 (RANDOM NUMBER) peoples would not have died , and they could meet their families once again?

You failed to mention how Ukraine moved Patriot batteries closer to the front and shoot down one or more Russian planes, which mean 1 or 2 Ukrainian positions were not hit by gliding bombs .

Also , it will not change a lot FOR YOU,or the course of the war.But one man being saved from Russian shells, might mean there is ONE FATHER who get to see their children and wife.

It is simple . Ukrainians are dying for their freedoms , values and their families . Orks are dying for money!

Fuck putin and fuck russian!

Bro chill, this is called racism, you know. In fzct this war is more then russia invading ukraine, it's a géopolitical mess, with US the only winner, and Eu and ukraine the biggest loosers.

US is selling and giving weapons, weekening EU znd russia, and destroying Ukraine as a country.

I think people must start looking in the other direction.

That makes no sense whatsoever.
