The Senate may not let Trump stop support to Ukraine by overriding his veto. Who knows?

They would need 67 votes. The senate passed the last aid package with 79-18 vote. They did override a veto at the end of his presidency (in Jan. 2021) with a 81-13 vote for the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). There are a lot of neocons in the senate. They might be able to do it.

Won't affect the current conflict much, war will go on, russia will keep up modernising its core and tactics at per with west, while 'salami slicing' ukrainian land bit by bit. US will keep profiting from both arms and energy supplying, while the only bunch of losers and it's head will be EU and Germany.

Trump might keep up the arms supply while reducing the aid for proper government function in Ukraine.

In this situation, these are not my words, but those of one of the speakers on the TV channel. I don't understand macroeconomics well, but I know that for the 60 billion allocated by the US, you can buy a mountain of weapons. But there is none, and the indignant Zelensky said that we have only received 10% of what was promised.

Out of that 60 billion only 25 billion was for weapons. It makes perfect sense that Ukraine has received only 10% of that so far. Most presidential drawdowns are for about a half billion, which occur maybe once every 3 weeks or so. https://www.defense.gov/News/Releas...s-additional-security-assistance-for-ukraine/
"According to the Congressional Research Service and Defense Department data, the Biden administration has used the drawdown authority 50 times since August 2021, authorizing around $25.2 billion worth of military assistance to Ukraine."

hey Akim Technically 60 Billion will not be used on weapons alone, it will go to defense contractors- then it changes hands by the time it reaches Ukrainian soldiers it will be peanuts. That is how Arms lobbies work

Ukrainian media published a video allegedly showing North Korean soldiers in the Kursk region of Russia. It is unknown who is actually shown in the video, perhaps this is trolling Russian soldiers. It is reported that DPRK soldiers in Russia are taught mine-explosive work and the basics of the Russian language.

Four Ukrainian kamikaze drones attacked the Russian city of Kaspiysk in Dagestan today, the video was published by local eyewitnesses. Some of the ships of the Russian Caspian Flotilla are stationed in Kaspiysk. Presumably, Ukrainian kamikaze drones of the A-22 "Flying Fox" aircraft type were used, the drones are based on the Aeroprakt A-22 aircraft. Some of the drones were shot down with small arms. Judging by the video, one of the drones presumably exploded near the decommissioned Russian missile boat "Stupinets" of Project 12411T, another drone exploded near a small missile ship of Project 21631. Presumably, Russian electronic warfare was operating in the port area, distorting the GPS signal, which is why the drones missed. At the moment, it is unknown whether the ships were damaged or not.

Looks like now aside from shortages of guys, Ukraine will also have to contend with weapons and ammo shortages by Jan 20 when Trump takes the chair.

Once the "winter" with snow and ice etc sets in, will Russkies stop pushing?

Last i checked they are pushing to some town/city called Pokrovsk

Is there any military logic to this or is it just flexing by the Ukies about how far their drones can go?

I know that this is for the future, and not direct deliveries from military warehouses. But slowly. Like a bottle of whiskey with a dispenser. It's like Germany with the Marder IFV. It supplied almost as many of them as Bradley, but the deliveries were at a snail's pace - 10 units/month. Everything was done leisurely. Like with sanctions - they introduced them, but did not control them. As a result, exports from Kyrgyzstan increased many times over.
