It depends which version of Bofors Bill you are talking about - a bit like comparing a Mk V Cortina with a Mk 1 and throwing in a leap forward in microprocessors and company takeovers such as we've seen in the last 20 yrs of mobile phones. The original idea started about 1980 when I was a relative sprog.
Apparently there's a lot of this going on?
On the one hand it demonstrates the young guys going there have real balls. Which is a rare commodity within the "woke" teenagers of today. But I also definitely get what this guy is saying.
You don't want to have to train a well intentioned & eager combatant. Who honed his skills on an X-box in the bedroom of his parents house.

What the fuck do they expect, effectively the EU has declared war on Russia
Why don't they just use the Russian funds and assets that the west has seized to pay for them?

Oh I think we'll get to that then, after that we'll nuke the bastards. The lesson is that we have been dealing with the Devil in the shape of Russia and China for too long and it's about time that they and all their middle eastern and African fans were told to fuck right off by the Western world and knocked back into the fuckin' stone age. I'm all for building a giant wall around Russia and stopping all dealings with Africa and China including all the aid and charity money sent to Africa, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and the Middle East.

Marine Le Penn, is looking good for the up coming elections. That could put a whole different slant on the EU.

I think I heard a figure of £34 billion had been paid to Russia and only £8 billion to Ukraine since the start of the war, so for all their condemnation they are still happy to help finance Putin's war

Lets see how many Russians are willing to top up their pensions,

Ukrainians offer $1m to Russian fighters who give up warships or jets
The cash incentives include $10,000 for handing over a military vehicle and $500,000 for a combat helicopter.

Not really. More internal strife with her nationalism but economically she's neo Marxist.

I would merely add the EU has bigger problem with divergence on Russian energy, sanctions and that nice Mr Orban versus Rambo Verhardtwat.
