Kyrylo Budanov, the chief of Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR), hopes that Canada could hand over to Ukraine tens of thousands of rockets that are awaiting demolition at one of the country’s military bases.

More than 83,000 CRV7 ground attack rockets are warehoused at Canadian Forces Ammunition Depot Dundurn, south of Saskatoon. Canada no longer has any use for them, and has selected a private contractor to demolish the rockets.

Speaking with the Global News outlet, Budanov said donating the rockets will help Ukraine fend off Russian forces and save Canadian taxpayers the cost of destroying them.

    The thing is, you people view anything that isn’t unwavering support for Ukraine as “Russian propaganda.”

    What I’ve just said it actually the stance a lot of Western military analysts take when they talk about the return on investment for aiding Ukraine. They don’t mention that Ukraine can win. They mention we can weaken Russia.

    You are just proving my point that you are too blinded by propaganda to realize it.

      No, what you have said has been 100% russian propaganda. You aren’t provided a “reasonable take”, you aren’t looking at both sides, you are just parrotting russian propaganda.
