Will retribution come? If Russia was Israel then Zelensky would be dead within the next few days.

I know its difficult for someone like you, but perhaps at some point you will realize that Zelensky is Russia's greatest asset.

The area was out of range of Patriot systems.

This time, they say that the F-16s are already flying from Romania to Ukraine and back.

So they now ultimately assume all jets come from west and will launch payload at Russia and run back to home base.

The next news, which is not news at all
"The F-16s transferred to the Ukrainians will be based at NATO airfields."
This is not news because Ukrainian aviation has been based on them and has been repaired since the first day of the air defense system. It’s just that the F-16 will be added to the other types of litaks. Their airfields are essentially used as jump airfields. crests would generally drag all the aviation to NATO airfields, but then the ping will increase and the flight radius will not be enough.

I think the CIA will deliver his uligy in the near future.

Russian ships conduct high-precision exercises in the Atlantic Ocean on their way to Cuba, 06.11.2024.

A few days earlier, the Admiral Gorshkov frigate conducted a training exercise to repel an air attack, in which it practiced the actions of combat units.

Ships of the Northern Fleet are conducting an exercise on the use of high-precision missile weapons in the Atlantic Ocean, the Russian Defense Ministry reported on Tuesday. The group consisting of the Kazan nuclear submarine and the Admiral Gorshkov frigate carries out the tasks of a long-range campaign.

"As part of the exercise, the crews of a frigate and a nuclear-powered submarine missile cruiser are practicing the use of high-precision missile weapons using computer simulation against naval targets representing groups of enemy ships conditionally and located at a distance of more than 600 kilometers," the statement reads.

It was also reported that, a few days earlier, the Admiral Gorshkov frigate, as part of a group of ships of the Northern Fleet, conducted a training exercise to repel an air attack, in which it practiced the actions of combat units, the interaction of command posts and combat posts by firing at simulated air targets.

On Thursday, the Cuban Foreign Ministry reported that a Russian naval detachment consisting of the Gorshkov frigate, the Pashnin oil tanker, the Nikolai Chiker salvage tug and the Kazan nuclear-powered submarine will remain in the port of Havana between June 12 and 17.

But now his usefulness is at an end.

The Ukrainian army is spent. Zelensky just needs to sign the orders to mobilize whoever is left.

It's not to Russia's advantage that he gets around to doing that. Yes whoever the Americans replace him with can sign in his steed instead, but they will have even less legitimacy to do so, and in the attempt can invoke disobedience from more of the population and state apparatus thann Zelensky.

But moreover, with NATO getting ready to either attack Russia or enter the conflict in some capacity openly, Russia needs its own cover of 'deniability'. For which it has ressurected Yanukovich a couple months ago, inviting him to Minsk. Now whether it's Yanukovich or somebody else, someone will have to assume authority over whatever alternative Ukrainian government or alternative Ukrainian state that Russia sets up. And it will be this alternative Ukraine that can be used to deliver strikes against NATO if they start doing funny business with ATACMS against targets in Russia or F-16s flying from Poland and Romania.
But obviously Zelensky stands in the way of this plan too.

Russia could consider changing nuclear doctrine
Actions of the US and its allies could prompt Russia to amend its nuclear posture, Deputy FM Sergey Ryabkov said

Russia could potentially make changes to its nuclear doctrine should the “escalatory actions” by the US and its allies push it into doing so, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov has warned.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a BRICS ministerial meeting in Nizhny Novgorod, Ryabkov admitted the international situation has been getting increasingly “complicated” and changes to his country’s nuclear posture could not be ruled out.

“The challenges that are growing thanks to the unacceptable and escalatory actions of the US and its NATO allies undoubtedly prompt a full-fledged question of how the basic documents in nuclear deterrence can be brought more into line with current needs,” Ryabkov said.

The diplomat refused to elaborate on the exact nature of the potential amendments, explaining that Moscow does not have a “practice of covering in advance what kind of changes can be made” before actual decisions are taken.

The remarks come shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin again reiterated Moscow’s stance on nuclear weapons as a last-resort option. Speaking during a question-and-answer panel at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) last week, the president stressed that Russia has never been the first to resort to aggressive nuclear rhetoric.

The nation’s current nuclear doctrine allows the use of atomic weapons only in “exceptional cases” and the current situation does not actually qualify as such, Putin explained. The president expressed hopes an all-out nuclear war will not break out, adding that such a conflict would result in “infinite casualties” for everyone.

The president also cautioned European NATO nations against increasingly belligerent rhetoric and actions, suggesting they are bound to suffer the most in case of a global nuclear conflict, arguing that the US will not actually help them.

“The Europeans have to think: if those with whom we exchange such [nuclear] blows are obliterated, would the Americans get involved in such an exchange, on the level of strategic weapons, or not? I very much doubt it,” Putin stated.
