and people who could do those things. Sure. That was a line which was crossed, and everyone knew that - including Ukraine, which is why they didn't do it until two years into the war after getting explicit permission from the governments supplying them with weapons.
But that leaves us back where we started doesn't it? If it's fair game to attack civilian infrastructure which was used or could be used to make the weapons you are getting hit with - then why should it make a difference if it's in the Netherlands? Or in China for that matter? I'm pretty sure that if Russian weapons were made in a state technically not in the conflict (say Belarus), that wouldn't stop Ukraine from sabotaging them.
I'm not denying that Russia was the initial aggressor. I am saying enough lines have been crossed that we really can't fault Russia if they wanted to sabotage weapons production in the west.
Thousands of the first Shahed drones fired by russia at civilians in Ukraine were made in Iran.
Ukraine has not attacked Iran.
So you might be “pretty sure”, but to me it looks like you’re just wrong.
> Ukraine has not attacked Iran.
Lol, no, not by themselves no. But in case you didn't notice, Ukraine's most powerful ally did.
Ukraine totally would attack Iran's drone production capabilities, if they could and didn't have other options/more pressing things to do.
And the same goes for them as for Russia, you couldn't blame them for it if they did.
Ukraine’s most powerful ally?
Who are you talking about? Surely not Trump.
If you are… what planet are you living on?
