Considering that the Leopard 1 is armored as much a sheet of paper and it's gun too weak to penetrate modern reactive armor, wouldn't it maybe be better if Germany restarted making derivatives/conversions of these vehicles before sending them to Ukraine? I mean, vehicles like the Gepard (SPAAG) or Keiler (mine-clearing vehicle with a flail) seem to me to be much more useful to Ukraine than the baseline Leopard 1 that they are based upon, since the Gepard is one of the very few vehicles that is well equipped to combat drones while the Keiler could be very useful to remove the mines that are blocking Ukraine's offensives since last year.

I saw a picture of former president of ukraine that putin poisoned and its enraging. He looks like a fekkin zombie. I wish that putin would have a drone sent his way soon but we'll have to be content with the daily casualty reports I'm afraid.

So, ukraine has destroyed the Russian fleets protecting Crimea, and now the number of aircraft stationed there is dwindling and will eventually reach zero if this trend continues.

But Zelensky’s appeal, delivered at a meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group at a U.S. military base in western Germany, yielded little apparent progress as its chief military backer, the United States, signaled no immediate change to its restrictions on the use of longer-range U.S.-made arms like the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS).

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, who hosted the meeting at Ramstein Air Base, said the Biden administration shares Ukraine’s sense of battlefield urgency. But he appeared to rule out any notion that Washington is ready to change its policy on using U.S. weapons deeper within Russia,"

Iran has sent short-range ballistic missiles to Russia, according to U.S. and European officials, a move that gives Moscow another potent military tool in its war against Ukraine and follows stern Western warnings not to provide those arms to Moscow.

Excuses After Excuses.

Ukraine wants the green light to use Western weapons to launch attacks deep inside Russia. Some European countries are on board, but the US remains reluctant. Ben Hodges, a former commander of the US army in Europe, told DW that this was a mistake.

Volodymyr Zelenskiy has complained that it has become increasingly difficult to use Storm Shadow missiles against Russian targets in occupied Ukraine because of a lack of supplies and reduced cooperation from the US, UK and France.

Now we hear that your long-range policy has not changed, but we see changes in the Atacms, Storm Shadows and Scalps – a shortage of missiles and cooperation," Zelenskiy said on Friday at the start of a day-long summit of western defence ministers at Ramstein airbase in Germany.

"And this applies even to our territory, which is occupied by Russia, including Crimea. We think it is wrong that there are such steps. We need to have this long-range capability not only on the occupied territory of Ukraine but also on the Russian territory, so that Russia is motivated to seek peace," he said.

At the meeting on Friday, multiple countries seemed to be persuaded that Ukraine should get the green light, which could add to pressure on the US.

"Many countries are in favour," said Laurynas Kasčiūnas, Lithuania's defence minister. "Many, many. But the question is not the number of countries, but countries who give [those] missiles." By announcing Lithuania's support, Kasčiūnas said, he hoped to help convince other countries.

Canada's defence minister, Bill Blair, said he hoped other western allies also got behind the push. Canada did not have long-range munitions it could provide on its own, he said.

Not only is support not getting better, it's actually getting worse.

Tariffs on allies and lifting sanctions on enemies.

Trump lifting sanctions on Russia - bad, but hardly surprising.
The idea of Trump lifting sanctions on Iran is almost hilariously ironic.

Yeaahh, I don't think I'll be sorry to see Biden go, as long as it's not Trump that replaces him. With the amount of support Ukraine's been getting from the US recently, I don't think it can get much worse (assuming I haven't missed anything notable).
