Kevin Baron says the United States and the European Union are supplying Ukraine with a “significant increase” in firepower, but there won’t be a single NATO or American troop on the ground.

Here we go again. A proxy war against Russia and make a tidy sum selling the weapons.
We need to stay out of this. Russia will not tolerate anyone meddling with they’re border. We know exactly what Putin wants, he’s been telling the world for 20 years. Problem, no one is listening
War is disaster for humanity I know from my country Ethiopia the best solution is find peace in any price only innocent people are dying every where
How? Ukraine is a no fly zone at the moment? How will they deploy aircraft?
That’s just propaganda man. If you don’t control the sky or sea you can’t get in big equipemtbs 😀😀
Watch…the JIMMY DORRE SHOW VIDEO…WHITE WASH. WITH FACTS & truth….MEDIA is lieing. Is NATO GOING to burn more people in the BUILING again. Its about gas and GREED…..AMERICA will they overthrow the government again. Like miski ACCORD…2014
So don’t use NATO ?
That is stupid. The NATO alliance was formed for this EXACT situation.
Sure if NATO is used it makes Russia use missiles real ones on thoee countries. Then we all die. Everyone. 😀😀
@HAVANA SCP is death really to be feared ?
We are all going to die.
Let’s die with honor and dignity, at least because letting tyranny prevail is cowardice.
NATO was formed to protect nato. Ukraine is not nato .
You a dam lie the west any sending shit to Ukraine now because Russia control the air space. If the west do this then Russia 🇷🇺 can declare war on nato. This is fake news. All of this is just bullshit 👄
Putin doesn’t want to kill anybody…..but the west are more than happy to rearm Ukraine over and over and see a nice profit in armaments….as a full scale blood bath unfolds. Putin has to live with his neighbours….the west don’t give a fuck.
They should provides them….and also Palestinian.. Syrians..Iraqis.. Yemenis.. Hamas..Afghans needs lethal weapons..Now they can ask any body to provide them weapons of all kinds openly and legally.. As who have the moral grounds to stop them??US..NATO. ..EU…no body…
good move. they did the same to Israel for invading and killing Palestinian people
Thank you to the West and all international parties who have put up a fierce opposition to the Russian – Putin forces. All countries watching this unfold should clearly state that this action by Russia is unacceptable.
Thanks for going over yesterday’s news. Congratulate yourselves and take the day off.
Sending fighter jets? Where will it takeoff? In ukraine? Airports and runways have been bombed. Unless you send in the f-35 w/c does not require a runway.
But why need the sky which is control by Russia 😀😀
@HAVANA SCP yeah for now. But if u.s. and nato decides to put up fighter jets over ukraine skies russian airforce will be obliterated.
@GIA RPC8883 If I’m correct Russia actually doesn’t currently have complete control of the Sky. Which is pathetic it was predicted they’d gain control in a day or two. But guess what, ukraine is still doing airstrikes. Whoever planned this invasion was incompetent.
NATO parked their planes in Poland n Estonia
Kiev has been surrounded
No fly zone has been impose
Sweeden is the next state going to feel the excitement of war for the first time
The Ukrainians had been fooled by west
Ukraine is just a buffer zone to the Americans
US should work immediately to broker a ceasefire. And should stop sending more weapons which will only fuel the on going conflict and will only cause more damage in Ukraine. PLEASE DO NOT make Ukraine to become a battlefield and testing ground for your weapons. Dont make Ukraine become another Afghanistan.
Even Sweden sends supplies, for the first time since 1939.
5.000 AT-4, helmets, vests and field rations….
When Sweden sends supplies, you know things are serious. They were neutral during WWll, I’m not aware that they sent anything during that time period. They did sell coal to Germany and let them transport supplies across their country.
5000 AT-4 ? It’s like an arms race between Nato countries and their allies, to see who’s weapons destroy more Soviet armor.
@Joe McArdle Swedish volunteers helped defend Finland.
@Maxawe Some Eh, it’s a target rich environment…
And Trump steaks. Oh wait. Those went to Russia
The more weapons nato sending the more people dying, the best is make a diplomatic way to stop the war..
PEOPLE of the WHOLE WORLD should PROTEST AGAINST the ORGANISED VIOLENCE from
BOTH SIDES, …. USA+NATO and RUSSIA.
THEY ARE PLAYING with OUR LIFE in this PLANET.😲
Why did war take 20 years this guy Putin got it done in a week … Taliban 1 month …. Smells like someone was trying to milk the cow to long before realizing the milk was coming out chocolate brown.
It’s only a matter of time before Ukraine capitulates.
If you think Ukraine can hold out you are a fool.
It seems that armchair generals sitting in their ivory towers are running the show as far as the west and the EU are concerned.
War is not a spectator sport. It’s hell. I’m no fan of Putin but he’s unpredictable. That concerns me and should concern the world.
Stop sending more arms. It’s not going to work. You are just adding to the body bags.
Sovereignty is a must but as a leader you must put priority in the lives of your people. Both countries speak Russian they can be Bff’s but look what happened Zelensky followed advices from the west giving Putin the green light. Why join NATO? I mean really? you know your neighbor had beefs with them, you know they don’t want them in there borders. I mean why would you do that? Look now your people are dying sacrificing them selves willingly for your selfish ideas. I don’t support the invasion but that’s the reason for all of this no one is right both are wrong.
Equipping a feather weight to enter the heavy weight boxing ring. End result no contest and death.
Exactly what they wanted, weapons £££££, the west have wanted this, no concerns for the people of Ukraine!
What are they supposed to do? Fight with their hands? Just give up?
@chu her the west do not care about Ukraine it’s all bullshit , they only want to expand NATO no concern for the people of Ukraine, they need to negotiate a peaceful end to the conflict.
@Peter Stewart only way Putin will stop is if Ukraine gives up.
@chu her negotiations is not giving up on any side that is the point, a deal must be done to resolve this issue, more weapons is not the long term answer.
Putin could have a terminal illness and figures he won’t be here much longer might as well go out swinging so to speak. Personally I think with all the sanctions and stuff… He’s going to find a reason to send Nukes. If he thought normal I would say zero chance. He plays like you’re on a prison yard and only the strong survive.
Is this right Слава Україні (Slava Ukraine) to say? I can read by the most part Cyrillic although slow.
The really sad thing is there will still be people who view Putin as a hero-There will be creams of glee in the boardrooms of western defense contractors only rivalled by the screams of glee emanating from the boardrooms of Pfizer and Moderna.Western governments are going to get fleeced yet again.Let me guess-the bordering NATO states will demand an enormous increase in defense expenditure-the screams of glee coming from defense contractors boardrooms will be positively deafening.
Man, MSM is always good for a laugh!
Why do we never learn from history. Every war thats taken place since WW2 has been a pointless disaster be they American, Russian or any other countries folly. The difference with this particular war is that this one could widen and become ‘the war’ not just another war.
When all the nukes are done there’ll be nobody pointing the finger of blame, nobody to say “this is your fault, you started this” because there’ll be nobody left to do anything let alone apportion blame and point the finger
I hope these weapons come to help the Ukrainians but so often is the case that they fall into the opponents hands. The US has supplied countless weapons throughout the wold that eventually fall into the wrong hands.
never mind afghanistan…
This aid didn’t get through.
And a trained Babuska will be the next Ghost Of Kiev. Awesome
Ukraine should play the game and Just say ” sure Russia put your man in for a while. We’ve had enough of NATO man ” How do you like your coffee ”
Now the West want to draw this bullshit out. They want maximum lives lost, Fk off.
You can have Ukraine back in a few years.
Lies….. If they get sent in there they will be destroyed!!
Bullshit put Nato right up front this time. Thay are always standing on the side lines. United forces can put this down quickly..
Sending more weapons and jets to Ukraine means more Ukrainians dying whiles NATO country’s are making $$$$.
Now you know why civilians need an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle and 30 rd. magazines. And if Putin did not convince you… then Trudeau should have.
There goes my tax dollars to another country that has no value
They need more missile and rocket defenses, C-RAM’s are portable and can be transported by truck, we should give some of those too. They can also take down aircraft.
Intelligence is too busy trying to look into our own citizens or go after Trump on makeup charges then looking into Russia or our adversaries
Its gonna be about 2 weeks to late
It is a very smart move from US to fight in Eastern Europe. We are very thankful for that. Greetings from Czech, have a good day in US.
they’re not fighting ..they have 1000 personal in Poland
In other words the title should read…”The West sends stinger missiles and FIGHTER JETS to Ukraine in an effort to once again disregard Putin’s warnings NOT TO INTERFERE OR FACE NUCLEAR RETALLIATION”…!!! It seems the West is more concerned with making Russia look bad than acting responsibly to ensure the safety of countless millions throughout Europe and the US, risking nuclear holocaust, no wonder Putin is angry, the West is arrogant and wreckless…!!!
We need President Trump back not this sleepy joe who moves at snail speed and makes weak moves to really help Ukraine.
talk is cheap… how these weapons go in, dah… the russian already surround everything…
WEST does not want peace it looks.. WEST wants to see another Afghan in Ukraine.. They should try for peace talks ..insted they are dumping weapons… Will Ukraine win over Russia with those weapons? ..It leads to more distriction…. WEST wants the same …y do not WEST directly fight with Russia ? ..
IMHO, I think Putin HAD to act NOW on the invasion rather than put it off. Why? I think Putin senses a Trump in the White House in 2024 and Putin does NOT want to confront Trump for obvious reasons – Biden and group are easy pick offs. So, Putin did not want to keep kicking the can down the road as far as invading UK is concerned.
Those weapons are not a solution. How will they hand the weapons to Ukrainian army.
the west is sending fighter jets to Ukraine….. will the west deliver them personally… WW3
….so, the facist GOP is on Putin’s side…as expected…the Trumpanzee rules the deplorable GOP…..
so naive… scary to see disconnected from reality the media is.
Has WWIII begun? Everything points out to the beginning of a nuclear end.
United Nations is sending transgender peacekeeper , can make a Russian go home ?
It means West wants to join the war
More death
What intelligence failure is she talking about? Does the news reader think that the CIA can read Putin’s mind? Only Putin knows what is going on in his fascist brain.
Great, they need fighter jets.
I also over-estimated russia’s military but if what the POWs ssaiiad is true, that they were misled into thinking it is some kind of a military sercise, then the moral of the russian army must be low
Nah I think it was only you
The guy speaks facts, i have been studying Putin since i was in primary school well over 12 years ago, have learned to read between the lines and i understood everything he did up until now
Yet even i was surprised because i didnt think he would be stupid enough to invade Ukraine
I thought he would go for hybrid war, then accuse Ukraine for “genocide” move in his “peace keeping” forces, like he did in Donbas.
@xGoodOldSmurfehx Even the KGB thought he wasn’t right in the head, that’s why he got a desk job in a safe place, aka Eastern Germany, rather than an actual spying job in the West.
Right? I mean, seriously he fucked himself and his country. I saw this coming a mile away. I thought he can’t be that stupid to really attack Ukraine. The unknowns are too unknown to reference Darth Rumsfeld. But it shows how obsessed he is with conquering Ukraine and removing it from history. Just like Stalin his role model was. Holdomor 2.0?
Yeah, a very stupid move. The end.
@Keith Dunwoody i thought he would merely use tension on Ukraine’s border as a distraction from what was going on in Kazakhstan but even there i was shocked to see i was incorrect
The irony now is that the ally he just helped, Kazakhstan, is refusing to back him up (at least directly) and formally refusing to get involved in the Ukraine mess
What Fighter Jets? How would UA pilots fly American/ EU jets? Saab, Rafael or even used F series? Where and how would they arrive, ground crews, spares? UA air force mainly made up of Soviet Aircraft. Some take from an “expert”..
Other formal Soviet Union Countries use Mig 29s that are in NATO (Poland, Germany, etc) and The US has some they use to train pilots against.
Nobody talks about mercenary’s DOD has lots of private solders on call !
The second blood is spilled, the welcome is out the window! Putin played chess and lost badly!
Even after being shot at, Ukraine didn’t even launch any rocket to Russian air space/soil. They just fired at Russian military on the way to invade Ukraine.
Zelensky is a NATO agent
How do you send fighter jets to Ukraine? It takes a year to train a pilot.
of course they have thier own pilot
Send then one dozen C-RAMS
Right move but where will these fighter jets land as all military bases are taken over. If these war planes uses Polish or Other NATO, then prepare to be hit.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Russia nukes all the countries giving Ukraine military assistance.
Gives u the chill that Putin just about as Stalin . If west don’t act quick we all end up gunned up and fight for our life
west is good to look wopends mass distrction specially bush they did not se idiot from east because he stick money on they eyes
Big up Ukraine all my prayers with y’all!
ukraine has more than earned the material support, glory to Ukraines!!!
Russia is sending hypersonic nuclear warheads to Europe in return
By the time it reaches there the war is over..🤦🏽♂️
lets be honest. first i am worried about peoples of Ukraine. but Putin is doing the right thing by protecting his country security from NATO & US from future wars. everyone knows wherever the NATO goes that country will be a cemetery for sure. i am pretty sure about one thing, if NATO interfere in this war, Putin will teach them a very good lesson which they never forget in the history of life. IN my point of view Western media is become a pussy, only they say & report that their leaders are the one saving the world as you can see in all the Hollywood movies. 9 percent of Peoples just not only watching videos and commenting, just look at the history a little bit before you commenting against Putin guys. NATO & US wants to rule the world thats all i see here
Go NATO go…we are almost there. I cant wait 4 Putin 2 be cornered and for him 2 launch his Nukes. Gone is Moscow, Berlin, Rome, Paris, Washington, New York and religion. NATO must move faster 2 push Putin over the edge.
Beautiful 😍 American 🇺🇸🇺🇸 god bless all the people doing helping to Ukrainian people
Maybe putins girl was Ukrainian and broke up with him and wants to talk.
One war over start another to entertain the bored people in the country m.Make Hay while in power
NATO is afraid of Putin😂🤣🤣
UK is now approved any citizen that wants to go and fight in Ukraine will be allowed to go, that will be the start of the international brigades, mercenaries will be on the way as well now, The Russian con scrips won’t have a chance against the mercenaries they are the dogs of war
NATO: we wont sent troops to Ukraine.
Mercenaries: He wont send soldiers. But we will.
From the underground rose a hope of freedom as a whisper
City in despair, but they never lost their faith
Fighting street to street
In a time of hope and desperation
Did it on their own and they never lost their faith
It’s crazy how Ukraine gave up their nuclear weapons & now got fucked smh may God have mercy on Ukraine
SLAVA Ukraine…
Since it is the GROUND forces that are the main problem this BS from crazy Joe won’t stop the Russians. He must send Land attack Cruise missiles with CBU anti-personnel and anti-tank cluster munitions. These can destroy all invading forces in a matter of minutes. But he won’t as he really doesn’t want to stop the invasion.
Why is it everyone suddenly trusts corporate media news as soon as war breaks out? Does no one remember the Iraq WMD debacle and Afghanistan?
Send the A10… The plane was made to destroy soviet tanks. Let the A10 do brrrrrrrrrrrt!
100% confident there are US “contractors” helping Ukraine and they’ve been there since January of this year if not earlier. Especially helping in Kiev. No reason we can’t give them satellite images to help them coordinate themselves right?
They already are getting that and also free satellite internet that can’t be jammed easily.
It’s never too late to stop and fix. War and sanctions are not good for anyone and not worth a border or past pride. Russia is safe, no one wants to attack or invade. We should work to bring Russia into NATO again and push for reforms so countries can grow from within rather than through the exploit of others and spending more on military offense instead of economy and citizens. Educate and nurture what we have and trade talents with the world in unity. Have love and faith be strong and stand up against selfish actors. The enemy is those that choose to destroy rather than build. Power corrupts those who hold on too long like the Lord of Rings. It’s a battle for Middle Earth and the world cannot have destructive psychopaths as leaders.
The West is not using imperialism to take countries- these are countries full of people who want to escape authoritarian influence and love their own lives without corruption and vassalage. Ukrainians and Russians deserve to live a great and peaceful life. They need a leader able to inspire and guide them and provide many options. People living under oppressive leaders without morales and ethics cannot have the freedom to dream to become leaders and politicians themselves, thus lacking good teachers and the ability to raise successful minds. May the spirit of freedom be strong in Ukrainians and Russians through faith in the betterment of humanity and in God who strengthens us. Please guide us all.
Russia will just use NATO to divide and conquer it just like it does on the UN Security Council. Never trust a Russian. The Ukrainians have known this for hundreds of years.
Who are they going to protect the Azov battalions?
Signaling that Nato would not step in under any circumstances is the very reason Putin feelt safe invading Ukraine, Nato should do the very opposite – should signal that if bombs continue to fall on civilians Nato would have to make a move. When did west go so soft and geopoliticly dumb? USA is doing the opposite of what they have been doing during cold war – prevernting it by strenght.
Weakness always invite pepole like Hitler or Putin and this invasion is also western eu and usa fault to begin with with their appeasment policy.
Should have listened to Poland and Baltic countries warning’s for last 8 years…
One day history will judge us on how we responded to Ukraine compared to Iraq,Libya and Palestine
Do Ukrainians have enough fighter pilots to fly the jets?
F-35s???😂😂😂
The Russian underestimated the criminal Europeans sending tons of military hardware and stingers, however the stingers are way to old, the US sent junk to Ukraine, the stingers cannot catch up to modern Russian planes and anti missiles missiles. Let me remind you clown, the UDS, Australia, NATO forces were 20 years in Afghanistan committed war crimes and still lost. Russia has been 5 days and invaded the entire country, what’s left is mop up operations, then installing a legitimate government, write a new constitution, call an election and kick out all western embassies out of the county including the most criminal, the USA.
I think Russia will destroy any airfields that are launching aircraft making attacks on Russian forces, no matter where there based
I don’t think Europe are giving ukraine fighter jets
why are we advertising what is being sent to Ukraine? He just arms up.
JET deal falls apart, BS. Either make this work or defend Ukraine’s airspace. Ukraine needs those jets. Make it work.
You are so wonderfull thank you so much . I thank you from SA for helping humanity
