Ukraine lacks ammunition, not courage. Abandoning them is un-American. House Republicans must choose: support America as a leader of the free world or side with Putin. Translation: Ukraine is not running out of courage and bravery. Ukraine is running out of ammunition. Abandoning Ukraine is to really abandon ourselves. It's simply un American. House Republicans have a choice. Stand with us to ensure America remains a leader of the free world or stand with Vladimir Putin.

Putin is determined not to lose Ukraine due to its strategic importance for Russia's security, agriculture, and energy pipelines. The US supports Ukraine out of ideology, not economic interest, leading to a geopolitical power struggle. Ukraine becomes a pawn in a global game involving Russia, the US, Iran, and China.

I believe you will win. We will provide everything you need to succeed. Our success is not due to equipment, but your courage. Thank you. The world is watching because we cannot let Vladimir Putin succeed here, as it would set a precedent for other countries.

I believe Ukraine needs support in the form of weapons and fighter pilots to win the war. We should provide F-16s and training for pilots. I want Ukraine to join NATO by 2024. We should issue an invitation and provide more weapons in December to help them fight in 2025. American-made weapons are being used effectively by the Ukrainians, benefiting both countries.

Give Ukrainians the weapons and authorization they need. We rely on heroes like those from the Azov battalion.

Canada believes Ukraine must win the war against Russia. Canada supports Ukraine using long-range weaponry. This support is to prevent Russia from degrading Ukrainian civilian infrastructure and killing innocent civilians in their unjust war.

We will soon vote on providing military weapons to Ukraine, which is the most crucial vote we will ever take as US senators.

If the Ukrainian military doesn't stop the Russian invasion, it won't be long before our NATO forces have to fight the Russian army crossing the border.

Ukraine can win by mobilizing its industry and willpower. Affordability is not an issue, as Ukraine's economy is worth €15 trillion annually. With a budget of €75 billion per year for 2-3 years, Ukraine can support its military and secure victory. This is a matter of choice and competence. Defeating Russia's objections to a war in Ukraine is a great deal, as it only requires financial investment rather than risking the lives of Ukrainian children. It's the bargain of the century.

Europe must quickly increase support for Ukraine as artillery shells, air defense interceptors, and drone production capabilities dwindle. Europe could use proposals and potentially collateralize frozen Russian assets to act fast. The speaker is concerned about the cutoff of intelligence streams from the U.S. and pressure on allies like the UK not to use US intelligence for their own weapons. The primary purpose of US intelligence has been to help Ukrainians see Russian attacks coming and have advanced warning. Key weapon systems require U.S. satellite queuing and the military GPS system to hit targets. Without these, more Ukrainians will die, and Europe cannot replace this capability quickly.

To achieve a peaceful resolution to the war in Ukraine, it is important to provide more weapons and credible military support. This will increase the chances of success for diplomats working towards a peaceful end.

Ukraine, a NATO member, receives increased military aid, including heavy weapons. Cooperation among countries is improving, particularly regarding providing Leopards. Supporting Ukraine with heavy weapons is crucial for ending the war sooner.

Ukraine needs to mobilize its industry and will to win. Affordability shouldn't be an issue, considering Ukraine's €15 trillion economy. With a budget of €75 billion per year for 2-3 years, Ukraine can support its military and secure victory. This is about making the right choice and demonstrating competence. Defeating Russia's objections to a war in Ukraine is a great deal, as it only requires spending money, not sacrificing lives. It's truly the bargain of the century.

Dmitry Sims junior hosts lieutenant general Abty Alaudinov, hero of Russia, hero of the Chechen Republic, hero of the Donetsk People’s Republic, commander of the Akhmet Special Forces, and deputy head of the main military political directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense. The conversation centers on the current phase of the conflict, Russia’s strategy, the role of Western support, and comparisons with Israeli actions in Gaza and other theaters. Key points and claims: - Russia’s combat capability and strategy - Alaudinov states that “overall, all troops of the Russian Federation’s Ministry of Defense are engaged in active offensive operations across all sectors where we’re positioned,” with the most intense fighting around Pokrovsk, seen as the key point to break through to operational space. He notes progress in sectors where the Ahmad (Akhmet) special forces operate and emphasizes a broader offensive plan while maintaining an “active defense” to engage the entire front line and stretch the enemy’s resources. - He asserts that “only Russia is advancing” along the 1,000-kilometer line of contact and attributes slower offensive tempo to preserving personnel and avoiding a sharp breakthrough that could trigger NATO involvement. He argues the primary damage comes from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) on both sides, and contends a rapid thrust would yield enormous losses. - Perceived signs of enemy strain - The speaker describes Ukraine as gradually crumbling under pressure, with Pokrovsk, Kupiansk, and the surrounding agglomeration “gradually falling apart.” He claims Russia liberates one or two settlements daily and that NATO support—drones and equipment—has not changed the overall dynamics; Ukraine cannot hold the front despite the influx of foreign weapons. - Western/NATO support - Alaudinov asserts that NATO testing is ongoing on Ukraine with drones, weapons, electronic warfare, etc., and that Trump’s shifting rhetoric does not reduce the flow of weapons or support. He contends that American support persists even as political statements change, and he notes deep American-NATO involvement via think tanks, satellites, and arms supplies that reach the front. - Drones and the changing nature of war - He emphasizes drones as the central element of modern warfare, while not negating the continued relevance of artillery and tanks. He argues: “a tank worth millions of dollars can be destroyed by a drone that costs $500,” and stresses the need to compete economically in war, deploying cheaper, effective unmanned systems to exhaust the enemy’s resources. - He claims Russia has a layered drone system for deep reconnaissance and strike with various warhead levels, ranges, and maneuverability, enabling operations from closest to farthest sectors and allowing “all targets” to be hit today. He asserts Russia is ahead of NATO in unmanned aviation. - Mobilization and tactics - Refuting Western depictions of “meat assaults,” he notes Russia conducted only one mobilization (300,000) and has continued advancing, while Ukraine has mobilized for years and still struggles. He attributes Ukraine’s resilience to nationalist formations behind mobilized troops, and he suggests that without NATO support, Ukraine would not sustain the front for many days. - Mercenaries and comparisons to Israeli actions - He characterizes Western mercenaries as having arrived with false expectations and being killed off in large numbers; Ukrainians are described as having strong spirit, but NATO soldiers lack endurance in the same way. Israeli mercenaries are described as capable in some contexts but not decisive against Russia. - On Gaza and the Israeli army, Alaudinov accuses Israel of “a fascist state” with tactics that spare no one, arguing Russia fights only those who fight with weapons and does not target women, children, or elders. He contrasts this with alleged Israeli actions in Gaza, saying Israel has no tactics and destroys civilians. - Nuclear considerations and doctrine - He asserts Russia is a nuclear power with substantial combat experience and advances in missiles like Zircon that could sink carriers, arguing NATO did not account for Russia’s capabilities when initiating the conflict. He presents a broader critique of Western policy and the so-called “deep state,” alleging far-reaching political dynamics involving Israel, Epstein, and compromise among Western leadership. - Closing perspective - The discussion closes with the host thanking Alaudinov for the detailed analysis of the operation and broader geopolitical commentary, including views on Israel, Gaza, Iran, and U.S. roles.

We are now free. The Russians are suffering, thanks to the money we spent. The Ukrainian counter offensive will soon bring results. The Battle of Bakhmut is not over yet. The Russian military is about to face a fierce attack.

My colleagues and I are impressed by the courage and bravery of Ukraine. We have a good relationship with the Netherlands and we are committed to supporting Ukraine for as long as it takes. Ukraine's fight for survival is crucial for the future of Europe.

The counter offensive in Ukraine is progressing according to plan, but the availability and quality of weapons and ammunition are crucial for its success. However, the regained territory is still less than 1% of what was lost during the invasion. There is only about a month left before the cold winter sets in, forcing a pause until spring. Obtaining aid from Europe and Western countries is becoming increasingly difficult due to Russia's advantage in the protracted conflict. Lessons from the past were not learned, resulting in slow and unstable aid delivery. Ukraine believes that Russia's aggression could have been stopped earlier if their requests for weapons had been taken seriously instead of being asked to surrender to Putin's demands.

Aiding Ukraine is the most cost-effective way for the US to enhance its security as the Ukrainians are the ones fighting and dying. The US and Europe provide them with weapons to resist Putin. Having been to Kyiv twice, it is clear that Ukraine is a European country with a strong desire to align with the West. It would be astonishing if the US were to abandon Ukraine at this crucial time.

Europe must quickly increase its support for Ukraine as artillery shells, air defense interceptors, and drone production capabilities dwindle. Europe could use proposals and potentially collateralize frozen Russian assets to act fast. The speaker is concerned about the cutoff of intelligence streams from the U.S. and pressure on allies like the UK not to use US intelligence for their own weapons. The primary purpose of US intelligence has been to give Ukrainians advanced warning of Russian attacks. Key weapon systems require support from US satellite queuing and the military GPS system to hit their targets. Without this support, more Ukrainians will die, and Europe cannot replace this capability quickly.

The top priority for the United States currently is to help Ukraine defeat Russia, as stated by most Republicans.

A year ago, Putin invaded Ukraine, aiming to weaken the U.S. and challenge Western dominance. Instead, the brave Ukrainians, with our help, have decimated nearly half of Russia's military. Supporting Ukraine is in our best interest and a worthy investment. We've provided effective weapons while maintaining strict oversight. This support sends a strong message to China and ensures our own military readiness with American-made equipment. The Ukrainian heroes have defended their homeland, serving the free world. Now, we must honor our commitment and provide them with the arms they need to win.

I am more encouraged about Ukraine's unity and resolve for 2024 and its strategic importance. I am also confident that Ukraine will have strong success this year, surprising Mr. Putin on the battlefield. Thank you.
