Aviones soviéticos surcando los cielos de las Cataratas del Niágara durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial

Está claro que la URSS tuvo que ingeniárselas, pero también es cierto que sin la ayuda de EEUU, la cosa habría sido mucho más complicada. No hay que negar lo evidente: la colaboración existió.

Aviones soviéticos surcando los cielos de las Cataratas del Niágara durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial

Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, los cielos de las Cataratas del Niágara fueron surcados por aviones de combate con la estrella roja soviética, un fenómeno poco común en la década de 1940. Esto se debía al programa Lend-Lease de 1941, a través del cual Estados Unidos suministraba material bélico a... [Ver más]

Aviones soviéticos surcando los cielos de las Cataratas del Niágara durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial

Menuda exageración. No sé de dónde sacan esas ideas, pero la verdad es que no se les dio ni la mitad de lo que algunos se creen. A los soviéticos les costó muchísimo conseguir lo que tenían, y no todo fue ayuda externa. Ni mucho menos. Si nos ponemos a hablar de la historia sin dejarse llevar por la...

Q: How much of the American WWII Lend-Lease debt has russia paid back? 🤔

That massive material aid literally saved stalin's soviet-russian dictatorship from total collapse. Have russian despot leaders said "THANK YOU!" even once?

「In total, the U.S. deliveries to the USSR through Lend-Lease amounted to $11 billion in materials (equivalent to $148 billion in 2023): over 400,000 jeeps and trucks; 12,000 armored vehicles (including 7,000 tanks, about 1,386 of which were M3 Lees and 4,102 M4 Shermans); 11,400 aircraft (of which 4,719 were Bell P-39 Airacobras, 3,414 were Douglas A-20 Havocs and 2,397 were Bell P-63 Kingcobras) and 1.75 million tons of food.

Roughly 17.5 million tons of military equipment, vehicles, industrial supplies, and food were shipped from the Western Hemisphere to the USSR, 94% coming from the US.」

Meanwhile russia infamously *extorted the victims* of soviet-russia's invasions for crippling "damages" and "reparations"... 😑

russians are going remain violent medieval brutes until we put a stop to that shit and teach them about consequences.

The most concrete and ethical way to do that right now is helping #Ukraine to the max and ending russian regime's oil sales.

L’Arena olimpica di Santa Giulia e l'“ingerenza indebita” dall’ex assessore Tancredi

Tra i “casi concreti” dov'è intervenuto l'ex titolare dell'Urbanistica del Comune di Milano ci sarebbe anche l'opera di Milano Cortina 2026, inserita nel più ampio Piano integrato di intervento Montecity-Rogoredo. Che cosa dice a proposito la richiesta di misure cautelari personali formulata dai Pm a fine giugno. Tra conflitti di interessi non dichiarati inizialmente e il rischio di un "outlet suburbano" in arrivo

@noelreports Surely putin's soviet-russia needs to finally repay their *absolutely humongous* WWII LEND-LEASE military aid the USA provided to the soviet dictator stalin. Right?

So far the russians have never repaid a single cent for the military and materiel aid without which they would've been annihilated by the nazis (that trump clearly has a special fondness for... even greater than the fondness for putinism or stalin personally).

Hey drumpf, the russians owe *YOU* trillions. That's the one with far more zeroes than you can count to. What's the deal here?

Le opere olimpiche a Milano, i finanziamenti pubblici e il lascito per lo sport di base

Dalle strade temporanee a servizio dell'Arena Santa Giulia di cui si è fatto carico a inizio maggio il Comune, alla partita milionaria e non ancora risolta degli "extra-costi" lamentati dai privati su Villaggio olimpico e Pala Italia. Che cosa sta succedendo alla promessa dei Giochi a "costo zero" e quale sarà l'eredità del "grande evento" sul territorio? Intervista all'assessora allo Sport della Giunta Sala, Martina Riva
