Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on July 13 announced plans for a new wave of long-range strikes on Russian territories.
“We are preparing new long-range strikes. We will also continue to respond harshly and consistently to every Russian attack on Ukrainians. In particular, the Commander-in-Chief reported the completely justified destruction of Russian killers who took the life of a one-year-old boy in the Kherson region,” Zelensky said in a statement after a meeting with senior commanders and the minister of defense.
In recent months, Ukraine stepped up its drone attacks on Russian territories. However, the attacks were mostly foiled by Russian air defenses.
Zelensky’s new remarks came right after United States Senator Lindsey Graham stated that he expects that the pace and volume of Western arms supplies to Ukraine to reach record levels soon.
Graham was asked on CBS News’ Face the Nation whether U.S. President Donald Trump could use about $3.85 billion allocated by the former Joe Biden administration through the Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) mechanism, which allows the head of state to supply weapons to a foreign partner without congressional approval in case of an emergency by decree.
“I expect him to exercise the PDA authority,” Graham responded, noting these funds would not be enough.
“I expect in the coming days you will see weapons flowing at a record level to help Ukraine defend themselves. I expect in the coming days that there will be tariffs and sanctions available to President Trump he’s never had before,” Graham added, describing possible restrictive measures as “a sledgehammer available to President Trump.”
According to the senator, who is one of the authors of the bill on new sanctions against Russia, restrictions can be applied primarily to China, India and Brazil.
The issue of arms supplies was also among the matters Zelensky discussed with his commanders in their latest meetings.
All in all, Ukraine appears to be preparing for a major escalation against Russia with backing from the U.S. and other allies. It is highly unlikely that Kiev will be able to do anything meaningful. Still, Russia will have to respond in kind. The looming escalation could kill the peace talks which Trump himself pushed for.

this means there will be many new russian volunteers soon💯
that’s totally incidental to what it means. that’s a knee jerk reaction it’s not indicative of meaning.
and of course donald doesn’t do “knee jerk reactions ” — i am using a linux system minus systemd to post -i have a microsoft pc i use for media entertainment only – i was blocked from posting in any browser -i have two non m$ type browsers – it reminds me of 1930,s germany -radios had limited reception.
russians are getting impatient, if zelenskyy does something extremely stupid such as hitting the crimean bridge or any other strategic targets, putin and other moderates in russian leadership may have to take the gloves off. ukraine is running out of air defense. latest footage has shown those shahed-geran, fifty cent, dorito drones hitting deep inside ukraine during daylight and night.
the one thousand missile-drone blitz on ukraine is just a matter of time.
take ramstein off the map.
why? i like ramstein . du. du hast. du hast mich
this differen double m rammstein. du hast mich.
because it’s the main nato arms hub for sending weapons to the ukrainian nazis.
why not start with the azeris. no nato member, no eu member close to russia and assisted the isreali attack on iran and the ukrainian attack on russia from there territory.
if the military have their way it will be.
and wiesbaden.
russia should attack all maida regime staff! they are mere terrorist not political &administrative leaders
omg. there’s one target russua will have to take out, and then risk hell unleashed or just carry on and be taken over eventually anyway. it’s crystal clear. either putin dies of old age and the war ends or the nato gets bored and invades and he gets executed as a war criminal. that’s the only options imo.

they’re plain idiots.
why do you think that is?
haha. the bridge has been struck repeatedly for years now. nothing will happen. jewtin and zelensky are only around to get paid to ensure that goyim slaughter each other.
it’s repeats always has been since the vatican let luther serve the german prince’s by creating protestantism as excuse for persecutions and wars. its always the same they create a motive, eg religious differences to defend their war crimes. justify them, its theatre. imo
it’s about the 4th crimean war actually now all from england really

anonymous stupidity tiresome
up your anuz with your pseudonyms and your trolloping propagandas of idiocy intended to depict just how dumb and dumber you are
why obedient dumb americunt anon triggered? not enough transgender attention
lol .😆. it hybrid bot.
disgusting filth excites your imagination as the fantasies about your anuz are all you can get.
the usual fake votes. the usual fake names. the same propaganda
zelenskyi is typical jude. full of “itself”, threat and blackmail. and disagreement even own people. just like netanjahu.
putin should take the gloves of is something the pro russian sphere is saying since three years. it never happened. it will never happen unless a western country is dumb enough to send troops into ukraine without putting them in ukrainian uniforms so putin can pretend he does not know.
oreshnik to berlin… right in the face of this judeopathics!
suckers for bs dumb as.
course he just got back from visiting the pope.
advancing 500 meters on the front line in 1 year is superb, attacking civilian targets at random, that’s what they are experts at, trump changed the game, 950.00 russian cannon fooder
another dumb americunt humiliated by russian superiority
you’re such a loser.
americunt anonymous–#1 loser projecting
as a typical halfwit americunt i lie and tantrum–cuz i am feminized bitch
the purported “killers” who took the life of a one year old boy in kherson ? ?
that’s pretty rich coming from a pack of rat joos and zelli-boy. karma’s going to be a really hard landing bitch for you crowd in ukie and palestine.
what, no seatbelts ?
putin ceasefires have no respect for fallen russian soldier it only pleases western masters macron,trump and haters of russia.if rognt agressive zelenski lays his hands on iran or chinese missile then good by to moscow and missile facilities and nuclear silos of russia.
during dngerious hours china whom we under estemated stood up for his ally iran nd move in wepons shipment while putin whom iran help with dangerious drones were in denial of military agreements
iranians are patient persians but got dangerous weapons nd missile to defend them-self.unlike putin who calls for iran denuclearize and negotiate with trump.what should iran negotiate if facilities were destroyed by trump and mileikowski natayahu.
axios hasbara propaganda info. poots himself debunked it.
quit playing with zekensky. if the little dwarf wants to play rough, do the same. flatten kiev, or preferably some western city, give those nazis some pain just like they have been giving the people of donbass since 2014. if possible take him out, the chicken will not run for long without its head,
trump is going to deliver long range weapons, capable of reaching moscow, the capital of nazi ruzzia 😀
the clown made his show… when russia will start to make it´s own game against the west? take down nazi-nationalist elites and then zelenskyy will poop on his pants.. “ukraine” is a bug… not “brotherly” at all… an enemy!
the solution is so easy and it’s a solution over which russia has complete control. turn to the west. join the 21st century. cease fire. take your precious boys home. enjoy the fraternity of free people opposing eastern autocracy.
next minute he will just be complaining that he never leaves his bunker and that orcs and barbarians bomb him all day long
