Has it even been repaired yet. If not that's gas. Probably can't find a company.
I’m not sure, I was watching live on sky news.
I had an old guy talking to me in the shop the evening who thought Russia will at some stage disintegrate into some kind of civil unrest disorder. Not quite a civil war but something similar. Putin is making far too many enemies in Russia to ride all this out. The army could get tired of his orders. The media in Russia can't fight a war for him on his own doorstep.
Vladivostock is on the Pacific? I can't see Ukraine having a hand in it.
Internal sabotage?
Internal sabotage or incompetence \ general Russian attitude to precautions \ maintenance.
I guess the Russian version of Bunga Bunga
It is,but you still have to cross over Ukraine or Romania to get to Moldova
I am sure there are other producers of 35 mm ammo for the gepards
Is this the clip, you where looking for?
Still the long table!!??
As putin mentioned it: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Donbas
Edit: -
On February 17, 2008, the Kosovo Assembly unanimously (109 members present) voted to declare independence from Serbia. Serbia declared that the independence of Kosovo was illegal and Russia supported Serbia in that decision.
Why is Kosovo independence illegal?
The unilateral Kosovo independence declaration cannot be in accordance with international law because it violated the principle of territorial integrity and sovereignty of Serbia, which is engraved in the UNSC Resolution 1244.
If the above is accurate why is Putin, using it to support his Donbas logic?

Russians still learning how to pan fry chips
The Irish drunks might be a stereotype based on some facts, but last time I checked the Nazi party was very much a reality for over 20 years and the Nazi regime for 12.
Thankfully much shorter than the forecasted 1000 years.
Yeah we had a few muppet politicians that were keen on auld Adolf, but a fair few Irish ended up fighting the Nazis and helping the Allies war effort including some relatives of mine.
A lot of Irish went to work in British war industry, they got paid unlike the foreigners that worked for German industry who often got liquidated for their efforts.
Now I am getting tired of our little discussion as we are going nowhere slowly, so lets move on and discuss why Germany's current leaders, and indeed some very recent ones, are kinda pro Russian.
That is one viewpoint as is that the EU cannot be held hostage in policy areas by just one country when the vast majority support a policy. I think a compromise of different levels of majorities being needed depending on the area is a good possible way for the EU to go.
All these lists always forget the damned gate!
Putin denied any responsibility for Bucha at the meeting (not entirely clear whether he is claiming the murders never happened or if he is saying someone else carried them out):
“Unfortunately, after reaching agreements and after our, in my opinion, quite clearly demonstrated intentions to create favorable conditions for continuing negotiations, we faced a provocation in the village of Bucha, to which the Russian army has nothing to do. We know who did it. We know who prepared this provocation, by what means and what kind of people worked on it,” the president said (quoted by RIA Novosti).
While I don't hold Ireland's neutrality obsession with anything but the lowest of esteem and strong contempt, I am aware that all was not as it might seem in WW2, and that members of the British armed forces transited through Ireland en-route to and from foreign lands and theatres.
I don't mind most Germans, they have their little idiosyncrasies like us all.
I have lived and worked with a fair few, some matching stereotypes some not at all.
But I do fooking mind when they try and rewrite or forget about their history.
I once got lambasted by German girl I knew for watching a particular D Day commeroration, because it was anti German.
Fook that, live with your history.
Yes it wasn't you but there is a damn fine chance your ancestors were involved and maybe in not such a nice way either.
And it aint just some Germans who sometimes tries to brush out their past.
The Turks are fooking experts at it, the Japanese go about it quietly, the French just totally ignore the not so nice parts and talk up the good parts, the Brits or more correctly the English often don't have a fecking clue of their past. The most obvious being them parading round as Richard the Lionheart as a symbol of their Englishness when the bloody guy was French who hated England.
I can find bad points about every nationality, and I can find some good points too.
I will admit at the moment I finding it difficult to think of good ones for the Russians.🙄
A bit like the old Faberge egg 🙂
Perhaps they were too busy taking notes and running the numbers, like that Austrian minister obviously did.
Those number can't be correct. Those would be colossal losses to suffer, particularly given the short time frame.
No I think the comments to the youtube video could actually be a little true.
Imagine you are in control of an airbase in the Far East.
You have been siphoning off sh** and then suddenly you are asked to send it back to the Motherland, but it is all gone.
Queue accident that destroys it.
Ever remember the old story about the cows falling out of the Russian military supply plane on the way from Kuril islands to Western Russia and sinking the Japanese trawler.
With the way these lads nick stuff it aint all that far fetched anymore.
On the basis of his ‘take’ on Bucharest , I am still totally of the opinion that I still would not believe anything that he says - he is a total fraud andthe sooner the Iron curtain is fully in place and concreted / locked down the better
I mean Bucha
Must have been those trafficked Ukrainian orphans playing with matches.
I think Russia are preparing the population for complete mobilisation with all these false flag events. Building up a narrative that they are under attack.
Its the only logic, especially when its happening as far east as **** Vladivostok.
I think that this is what the EU already has, or the basic idea of it anyway, whereby all countries need to agree to treaties which would change the nature and scope of the EU, but majorities are enough to agree on the everyday business of the EU. If you're talking about the instance where it's like you'd need a 90 percent vote on defence or an 80 percent vote on trade and so on, I think that would be worth looking into, but I'd imagine it would need one of those big treaties to be signed where all participating countries would need to agree. A big selling point of the EU is the idea that it's a partnership of equals and that smaller countries can club their votes together to match the voices of larger partners. Anything which would threaten to change this balance would be a dicey proposal.
A lot of what Putin says is for domestic propagandist purposes.
Possible.
But, something that has not been mentioned yet. What if this is a military purge? Putin clearing house of possible internal threats to his rule.
Agre more likely false flag operations, but maybe Putin is stamping out the possibility of anyone taking him out.
This is shameful if it is true https://twitter.com/EllyB53292373/status/1516054125250760706?s=20&t=yl-6MTyxNMJN6tKkeAuKUg
That's less than 4 minutes flight time over Ukraine and can be done at an altitude above the range of MANPADS.
