On the part of Russia, "goodwill gestures" will not end in any way. The enemy is not able to perceive them adequately, but we stubbornly threaten them with a finger and say all the time: ay-yay-yay, you can't do that.
Here are almost the most advanced allies. They put a weapon, but forbade its use. Why does it only work for the British? How nice it would be if the others forbade the Ukrainians to use their weapons. Including Russia, as the successor of the USSR, would prohibit the use of Soviet weapons.
I had an improvised hit parade of Ukrainian allies in terms of their degree of advancement in relation to heavy tanks:
1. The USA is the most cunning, they did not give tanks at all (yet)
2. UK-tanks were given, but they were forbidden to use them in battles.
3. France- did not give heavy tanks, got off with old, light AMX-10.
4. Germany is in last place. These poor devils were unwound to a pile of Leo2 (half of which have already been unwound across the fields) and to an even larger pile of Leo1. In general, it seems that things are very bad with Germany. If Merkel was still trying to portray the appearance of some kind of independent policy (the Ameikans needed to listen to her phone in order to control), then Scholz openly merges everything in favor of the United States and apparently it is not necessary to listen to him - he himself writes detailed reports about each of his movements.
Some NATO sheep today proposed, as a peaceful option for Ukraine, joining NATO as a "compensation" for the territories occupied by Russia. However, one of the goals of the special operation declared by Russia was the non-entry of Ukraine into NATO. Now, looking at such "peaceful" proposals, Russia will probably have to strain itself and not leave a single piece that could be called Ukraine and that could be accepted into NATO.
Россия готова начать применение кассетных боеприпасовRussia is ready to start using cluster munitions
At the XI Moscow Conference on International Security, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced the possibility of reviewing the decision on the non-use of cluster munitions by Russia. Up to this point, the Russian side has refrained from using them, relying on humanitarian considerations.
"I wanted to draw attention to the fact that we also have cluster munitions in service. Until now, for humanitarian reasons, we have refrained from using them. However, this decision may be reconsidered," Shoigu stressed.
Such a statement by the Minister followed in response to the decision of the United States of America to supply cluster munitions to Ukraine. Shoigu expressed concern about the consequences of the use of such weapons, especially given their impact on civilians.
"Previously, American representatives have repeatedly stated that the use of cluster munitions is a war crime. Today, Washington and its accomplices are committing this crime in Ukraine. As expected, there is no condemnation from humanitarian organizations," the minister added.
Such behavior, according to Shoigu, indicates double standards in international practice.

Великобритания запретила Украине использовать танки Challnger 2 до особого указанияThe UK has banned Ukraine from using Challenger 2 tanks until further notice
The UK has expressed its concern about the use of Challenger tanks supplied by London during the first phase of the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). This decision was made after several German-made Leopard tanks fell into the hands of the Russian army.
British intelligence, analyzing the losses and tactics of using military equipment on the Ukrainian front, concluded that the use of Challenger tanks could be "irrational" and potentially dangerous in combat operations against Russian troops, especially when storming fortified positions on the Southern Front.
The delivery of Challenger tanks to Ukraine was part of the UK's military assistance to Kiev. However, given the current situation on the battlefield and the risks associated with the loss of expensive and modern military equipment, the British government decided to temporarily restrict the use of these tanks in active combat operations.
It should be noted that to date, Challenger tanks have never been seen in battles in the zone of their own.
Со стороны России никак не закончатся "жесты доброй воли". Противник не способен воспринимать их адекватно, однако мы упрямо грозим им пальчиком и все время говорим: ай-яй-яй, так нельзя.
Вот почти самые продвинутые союзники. Поставили оружие, но запретили его использовать. Почему это работает только у британцев? Как было бы хорошо, если бы и остальные запретили украм использовать свое оружие. В том числе Россия, как правопреемница СССР запретила бы использовать советское оружие.
У меня родился импровизированный хит-парад украинских союзников по степени их продвинутости по отношению к тяжелым танкам:
1. США- самые ушлые, вообще не дали танков (пока)
2. UK-танки дали, но запретили их использовать в боях.
3. Франция- тяжёлые танки не дала, отделалась старыми, легкими AMX-10.
4. Германия на последнем месте. Этих бедолаг раскрутили на кучу Leo2 (половину из которых уже размотали по полям) и на еще большую кучу Leo1. Вообще с Германией похоже дело совсем плохо. Если Меркель еще пыталась изображать видимость какой то независимой политики (амеиканцам нужно было прослушивать ее телефон, чтобы контролировать), то Шольц открыто сливает все в пользу США и его видимо и прослушивать не надо- он сам пишет подробные отчеты по поводу каждого своего телодвижения.
Какой то НАТОВСКИЙ баран сегодня предложил, как мирный вариант для Украины- вступление в НАТО в качестве "компенсации" за территории занятые Россией. Однако одной из заявленных Россией целей спецоперации было невступление Украины в НАТО. Теперь, глядя на такие "мирные" предложения, России видимо придется поднапрячься и не оставить ни одного кусочка, который можно было бы называть Украиной и который можно было бы принимать в НАТО.
