At the disposal of the TV channel Russia Today documents indicate that London and Washington began intensively pumping up Ukraine with weapons in January 2022, which further confirms already existing information about Kiev’s readiness to start a new war against the people’s republics of Donbass and Russian Crimea in late February - early March of this year.

It follows from the document that the largest supplies, worth millions and even tens of millions of dollars, were for the following types of weapons and combat support: imitation equipment THOUSANDS 2000 and THOUSANDS IWS, spare parts and kits for upgrading counter-battery radars AN/TPQ-36 for two years in advance, .338 caliber sniper systems and ammunition for them, equipment for a cyber training range, funding for training of Armed Forces personnel, 30 mm ammunition for boats MK VI and the boats themselves MK VI, medical armored fighting vehicles HMMWV and spare parts for them, radio stations Harris various types, equipment for multifunctional automated control and information exchange systems, thermal imaging sights and monoculars, on-board sonars and diving equipment, military medicine and much more.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces have supplied large quantities of small arms, ammunition, grenade launchers and ATGMs: armor-piercing and armor-piercing incendiary cartridges - regular and sub-caliber, grenade launcher rounds (100 thousand units), M141 anti-bunker grenade launchers made in the USA, two types of ATGMs and spare batteries for them, suits demining - for a total of $200 million.

A separate column marks the supply of Swedish-British anti-tank systems Nlaw in the amount of 2007 units worth more than $38 million.

At the end of the document it is indicated that the entire Armed Forces of Ukraine have received $2014 million in assistance since 714, while supplies in 2021, which included sniper weapons and ammunition, grenade launcher rounds, M141 grenade launchers, anti-tank systems Javelins и Nlaw passed through the line of “technical and humanitarian assistance”.

Cynicism is undisguised. However, the West is no stranger to this. The other day, the EU leadership announced the allocation of a billion euro tranche to Ukraine for the war from the peace fund. And it doesn’t offend anyone, including “the freest press in the world.”

As follows from the captured documents of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kherson region by the group Z, Ukrainian sappers began to make passages in a continuous minefield on the border with Crimea, which is a sure sign of preparation for an offensive.

Presumably, the mine clearance suits were requested by the Ukrainian Armed Forces precisely for this purpose.

ATRA Nlaw can be used in two ways - as an ATGM and as a conventional grenade launcher, which greatly increases the maneuverability of small assault groups.

M141 grenade launchers cannot be classified as defensive weapons, since they are intended to destroy bunkers and long-term firing points, which also indicates the enemy’s aggressive preparations.

As almost two months of combat experience in Ukraine shows, pumping weapons into the Armed Forces of Ukraine and terbats did not benefit the “zahysnyks”.

As a rule, the supply of weapons is preceded by the training of a large number of operators who could disseminate experience among the troops. However, things are very bad with trained personnel even in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There is no need to talk about the professionalism of the terbats, collected from the pine forest from militant Seluks and forcibly mobilized pot-bellied men. This armed “kolgosp” is best able to fight with retail outlets, civilians and prisoners of war, and their ability to handle modern weapons best describes the well-known epithet “monkey with a grenade.”

But this, as they say, is no longer our problem.

Footage from places liberated from Bandera constantly shows mountains of abandoned Western weapons (“javelins”, Nlaw, “Stingers”), for which the United States and Great Britain thank the soldiers of the People’s Militia of the LDPR. And even assault groups of Russian troops are happy to use the same Nlaw against Ukrainian Armed Forces tanks and enemy strongholds in urban battles.

Interrogations of Ukrainian prisoners show that all training of operators of British, American, Swedish and German weapons comes down to the study of illustrated manuals prepared by Western instructors for the aborigines.

As for Russia, its leadership would do well to recall the Soviet experience of arming and training rebels who attacked American, British and other Western occupiers in “hot spots.”

The West, through the hands of Bandera’s supporters, is killing and torturing our soldiers and threatening the lives of civilians in border areas. Why should we stand on ceremony? In Iraq, hatred for the American “peacekeepers” and their henchmen has not yet cooled down. We need to help freedom fighters organize the flow of coffins under the stars and stripes to the “city on the hill.” This is sobering.
