#Lawfare: Many advanced weapons systems rely on rare-earth elements, incl. F-35 fighter jets, radar systems, Predator UAVs, the Joint Direct Attack Munition series of smart bombs, and Tomahawk missiles, which Trump is considering sending to Ukraine.

Retired American general Jack Keane who served as Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Army stated that if Tomahawks are transferred to Ukraine, their first target would be the drone production center in Yelabuga, Russia, allegedly staffed by 20,000 North Korean workers.

This is part of a good 2023 Russian joke during the Sweden / Finland accession issue. When God heard that all Russians automatically go to heaven, heaven applied to join NATO. (Brits & Russians do share a certain sense of humour).

Anton Gerashchenko @antongerashchenko.bsky.social · 19h

More nuclear threats from the Russian propagandists should Ukraine get Tomahawks.

Solovyev has said that "they [the West] will die but we'll go to heaven" at least three times in the past couple of weeks.

IMF lowered its forecast for #Russia growth in 2025 to only 0.6%.

In April IMF estimated 1.5% - In July they projected 0.9%

Russian economy expanded 4.3% in 2024

Trump Says He May Give Tomahawks to Ukraine. Is He Bluffing?

President Trump’s threats to provide the missiles to Ukraine, whether he follows through on them or not, are a sign of his growing frustration with Moscow.

The drive for rearmament in Europe comes from an ‘extreme centre’ that wants us to believe simultaneously that Russia weak enough to be defeated outright by Ukraine , yet strong enough to pose an invasion threat to EU/nato countries
