Zelensky: “Our military managed to replenish its arsenal due to the many pieces of equipment it took on the battlefield. Enemy tanks, armored vehicles, ammo will now work for our defense. What could be more humiliating for the invaders? We’ll beat the enemy with its own weapons.”

12. In the future, people will compliment World figures by saying...

..."he's a modern day 'Zelensky'!"

I hope at least it will be so.

I prefer modern day Mandelas, but this war was forced on Ukraine. He had no choice but to become a war leader.

17. Wow, yes! FDR, Churchill, Eisenhower won't be the iconic benchmarks any longer.

Zelensky is the new icon for leadership, bravery and genius.

Yes, Zelensky did not ask for this situation, it was forced upon him.

I wonder if when he was elected he had any idea what the future would hold for him?

He rose to the occasion like few others in history.

14. George Washington.

I'm just going to call him GOAT. I'm not sure anyone in history can out do him.

[Irish_Dem]

18. Oh yes. He is the father of his country now.

Washington faced a great deal of danger as well when he was birthing our nation.

11. Latest equipment loss numbers from Oryx...

These totals are mostly armored equipment of all types, towed artillery, & aircraft.

Russia - 967 total pieces lost, of which: destroyed: 386, damaged: 13, abandoned: 157, captured: 411

Ukraine - 274 total pieces lost, of which: destroyed: 96, damaged: 5, abandoned: 43, captured: 130

As Oryx notes these numbers represent only items that have been visually documented & confirmed, so actual numbers are a bit higher.

Note that using these numbers, Ukraine has lost 274 total pieces, while they have captured 411 pieces of Russian equipment & taken possession of 157 abandoned pieces of Russian equipment. That's a total of 568 potentially usable pieces of Russian equipment that are now in Ukraine's possession, versus 274 pieces Ukraine has lost. Of course not all of the abandoned & captured Russian equipment can be put into service, but the consensus I'm seeing is that Russia is currently a net supplier of armored military equipment to Ukraine, & since no other countries are supplying this type of equipment, Russia is in fact currently the world's largest supplier of armored military vehicles to Ukraine.

Now I want to see Ukraine use as much of that equipment as they can to stop Russian advances.

15. LOL

since no other countries are supplying this type of equipment, Russia is in fact currently the world's largest supplier of armored military vehicles to Ukraine.

That's really funny. I wish the news media would pick up on that.

It would drive Putin nuts!

13. Another best thing,

Trump told Putin that NATO was weak, told Putin that president Biden was weak.

Hey Donald, you have a phone call from Vlad, hello! Hey poopet, you can run on your own in 2024, don't expect any help from me. Oh and Donald, I still have the pee tape.

[calimary]

16. I hope this screws ANY realistic hope the Orange Traitor has

of winning the White House back.

We can AND SHOULD hang Putin around the donald’s neck like a cheezy necktie. That’s YOUR boyfriend, donald.
