The statehood of Ukraine is being brought into question as Russian President Vladimir Putin predicts the conquest of Ukraine by Russia. Putin is openly expressing his desire for total domination of Ukraine, not just the annexation of a few regions. This revelation comes as Putin meets with the foreign minister of North Korea, a crucial ally supplying Russia with missiles to bomb Ukraine.
In response to the Russian offensive in eastern Ukraine, the United States has provided Ukraine with Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, which have proven to be instrumental in Ukrainian defense efforts. The armored vehicles, equipped with strong cannons and thermal scopes, have successfully targeted Russian troops and even defeated their armored vehicles, such as the T-90 main battle tank. Ukrainian commanders have expressed their indispensable reliance on the Bradleys, acknowledging that without them, they would have lost significant ground.
