Erdogan to Sweden: Don't expect Turkish support for NATO bid after Stockholm protest
Sweden should not expect Turkey's support for its NATO membership after a protest near the Turkish embassy in Stockholm at the weekend including the burning of a copy of the Koran, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday.
We all know how this will end but we cant even get the freethinkers to feign concern that the end is near anymore?
No need for alarm our freethinking friends have it all figured out: They are just getting rid of the old troops/gear so they can unleash hell with the real professional troops and non-dilapidated gear. So, in this case, the felons drafted into the Wagner ranks who are all dead now actually have opened the door for the mass reserves of professional, hardened troops that will flood the battlefield
Similarly, losing 7 attack helicopters in a day is actually an advantage for the russians as they can now unleash the stealth helicopters that NATO and the West fear the most...Just you wait...

Getting tanks for Ukraine was big but more advanced weapons systems will be needed. And then comes the really big price tag for rebuilding.
