How the Czech Republic has just stopped Putin cold and saved Ukraine

  1. Misleading headline. Russia’s war against Ukraine hasn’t stopped. The Ukrainian people still need support.

  2. Calm down a bit, this is not an action movie, and we did not saved anyone.

    The shells which the multinational coalition bought are likely not even on the frontline yet

    As a Czech i am proud that we managed to negotiate something like this, but there is nothing to celebrate yet

  3. The Czechs have punched far above their weight in terms of support much like how the Ukrainians have punched far above their weight in all ways to hold off the hordes of Muscovy.

    At the same time, the Ukrainians (and their friends including the Czechs) are far from victory. Ukrainians managing to “save” themselves and their culture in a shattered and potentially permanent rump-state doesn’t count for much when they still face endangerment from the mere presence of over 140 million Muscovites next-door in their still-expanding colony which (currently) takes up 11 time zones.

  4. Well that’s that then.  Stand down, every one 

  5. Yes. That’s why multiple countries had to come together and buy the shells. Because the Czech Republic is so generous

  6. It’s really miraculous how well are we currently doing foreign relations wise. Unfortunately, after the 2025 elections, we will most likely join the Hungary club…

  7. Oh yeah, Ukraine is saved, in case you didn’t hear.

    No offense but British media are a bit trash, always misleading headlines.

    They always tend to prejudice, and be biased.

  8. They finally laid claim to Královec, eh? About damn time.

  9. Why do we keep telling Russia what we’re giving to Ukraine? Can anyone explain? Why can’t they find out on the battlefield?

  10. Ukraine is still in a perilous situation overall with a major manpower shortage, Russia having vastly improved its ISTAR and employing more and more accurate glide bombs. The Torygraph’s garbage reporting strikes once again.

  11. Why was Ukraine in this position to begin with, maybe should we have ramped up she’ll production 2 years ago?

  12. It’s moments like this that remind me why Czechia is our best southern and northern neighbour by far

  13. Those shells will be captured or destroyed as they come into the front. Russia found thousands of 155mm shells in Avdeevka after Ukraine fled with their tails between their legs

  14. Ok tell Biden to stop sending billions then so we can help the poor in our country. Since ya know; Putin has been stopped

  15. “After all, a single gun firing 50 shells a day is about as useful as two guns each firing 25.”

    No! A single gun can cover a particular area, two guns, cover double that area! Also, if you have 1 gun and it has to cover 8000 km², you can only fire a salvo equal to the amount of rounds a single gun can fire per unit of time. Thus that 8000 km² will see very little artillery coverage, two guns doubles the salvo, doubles the rate of shells spent on the target area.

    Both shells and guns are important.

    This has been your daily dose of pedantry.

  16. Thank you Csehország, you are my best friend,

    You are the peacekeeper, you are the legend.

  17. >The Czechs found, for Ukraine, nearly a million shells precisely when Ukraine needed those million shells the most

    So this nearly a million shells were 800.000 which was 700.000 in the article linked from the article, but at least they’ll prolong the fight so even more Ukrainian can die before the collapse. If those shells even arrive there.

    And yeah, according to the article ammunition is not coming from the USA because of Donald Trump and not because NATO simply doesn’t have the manufacturing capability to actually produce them. So, this definitely not just another step in the West’s elaborate self-disarming process and Ukraine will soon archieve… what, exactly?

    Don’t forget to downvote.

  18. Well done czechia.

    Now the rest of us in the west. Can we make sure Ukraine isn’t in this position again ffs.

  19. The title reads like satire, is misinformation, and mutes the message that Ukraine is in dire need of military aid.
