As further evidence is revealed that Spewtin is having to use Korean arms to pursue his battle against Ukraine,.. Further news emerges that they( Russia) have enticed Cuban nationals to fight their war, lured by the promise of a Ruskie passport and 'high' wages. All well and good if they live long enough to use it and receive the pay!! Seems to show the problem within the country of recruitment and training,

Seems to show the problem within the country of recruitment and training, More to do with this, I suspect "The Communist-run government has also acknowledged market-oriented reforms have moved too slowly. Cubans have suffered growing shortages of food, medicine, fuel, transportation, power and consumer goods for four years. The economy has slumped as imports, from fuel to spare parts and fertilizer, have all but vanished.20 Dec 2023" Economic migration takes many forms

Quite a lot of reports on the BBC today about discontent in Ukraine about the length of service for conscripts,at the moment their is no specified length of service so they stay until theyre killed or maimed.

I notice that the price of fuel here is increasing month by month and as most goods are delivered by trucks the cost gets passed on to the consumer so inflation rises,I think that sanctions were rushed and Western countries have shot themselves in the foot...India and China benefiting by buying discounted fuel from Russia..

Today Russian troops have attacked in the Kharkiv area,they have "advanced 6 miles" or "been pushed back" or "have taken 4 villages" etc etc. I doubt there has been a war in the last 50 years where its so difficult to get the truth about battles or casualties. People do seem to have been evacuated from some villages so they are probably in danger of being taken or are being heavily shelled.
