Bet you were another one who was a real schoolyard hard case when you were eight years old, maybe time to grow up Minge?

I'm betting by your repeated focus on playgrounds you should hopefully expect a knock from the policia soon.

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
I don't believe that is what I said.So you can't work out who posted the video on YouTube.

It's not really arguing when 1 side just resorts to name calling, if you are the wrong person to argue with then maybe put up an argument instead of being juvenile about it and stop using emojis it lends nothing to arguments.He's arguing with the wrong person. It's a Ukrainian government sponsored video. You're obviously a dim as him. Maybe work on your childlike schoolyard gibes they are becoming so boring.
Lad can’t help himself. He’s not here to debate or argue he’s simply here to troll.

There you go again with the stuff you'd never say face to face with anyone.
Must be tough being a teenager these days.

You appear to be in an echo chamber of your own. I posted a YouTube video in which an official Ukrainian government source admitted what most of the world has known for many months. The are struggling with manpower issues and losing ground daily. Too difficult to understand?

Not good news for Vlad, this.
In attempts to stop runaway inflation due to increased defense spending, the Russian Central Bank has increased the interest rate to record high 21% and will “very likely” raise it again in December. It is unclear whether they will be able to stop inflation this way, but this move is likely to bear devastating consequences for Russian businesses, already hurt by Western sanctions.
Many are already reporting a drastic increase in late payments from counterparties – a worrying sign for the economy. Financial experts are expecting a “wave” of bankrupcies to sweep the Russian market over the next several months, and many leading businesses have grim prognoses for 2025.
Russia’s biggest steel manufacturer, Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works, have enough reserves only for another 6 months and have a “very negative” outlook for 2025.
Samolet group, a major real estate developer is also on the brink of collapse – their sales are down 37%, and one of the biggest shareholders is trying to sell his stake in the company. As a systemic company for the Russian economy, the default of Samolet would likely require a government bailout.
Russia’s Union of Shopping Centers has appealed to the government for support. They are requesting subsidized interest rates of 7-10 percent, debt restructuring, and payment deferrals of 5-10 years. Without these measures, 200 shopping centers risk bankruptcy.
Among other companies that foresee a default in their future are Krial Energo Stroy plant and strategic enterprise “Rosgeologia”, while national restaurant chain “Kuzina” has technically defaulted already.
Even the defense industry is not safe from the effects of the interest rate hike. Sergey Chemezov, the head of the state-owned defense conglomerate Rostec warned, “If we keep operating like this, most of our businesses will go bankrupt. Even arms sales don’t generate enough profit [to service debt at rates above 20 percent].”
Stuff that has been forecast for some time.

Recovering all those wrecked/sunk ships will be no easy task neither. Let alone finding cash to replace em. Who can they be selling arms to? They've gone begging former pals for ammo stocks they sold them in the first place 20 and 30 years ago.

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
I'm not denying what was said in the video, You being a massive Russian fan should be familiar with propaganda and lies.... In war, truth is the first casualty.....
I don't believe what the Ukrainians are saying and I don't believe what the Russians are saying. The truth is likely somewhere in the middle, I believe the Ukrainians are saying this so aid is increased... what do you not understand about that statement?
