  THE WAR IN UKRAINE - A BRIEF ANALYSIS - This paper is politically neutral .           The subject of this work is the armed conflict unfolding in Ukraine, focusing primarily on analyzing the strategies of the two parties involved and the execution of the land campaign. It also analyzes certain tactical aspects, detailing how the employment of specific categories of military equipment has fundamentally altered the battlefield and how the armed forces have adapted to this phenomenon. A turning point in the use of certain weapons was observed in this war, resulting in the emergence of many novel developments.

  IRAN – US: THE WAR GOES ON It comes as no surprise. It could not have been any other way. Because this conflict is not between Iran and the US. Or more precisely, it is not just between Iran and the US. It is a flashpoint on the map of a much broader confrontation. The main characteristic of the Gulf campaign is its visibility, by the very nature of its economic consequences. But otherwise, it is just an episode in a larger confrontation.

I briefly outlined the reason why I believed the Iranian leaders agreed to a ceasefire agreement: to encourage American forces to deploy more combat equipment, and implicitly personnel, to the Middle East area of operations.
