Boris is in hot water domestically. Foreign policy in any country isn’t about morales it’s purely a power play.
The division involved in the horrific war crimes in Bucha don't exist anymore apparently. Thrown into the heat of battle around Kharkiv in what some suspect was a deliberate attempt to remove the perpetrators of the crime and additional witnesses.
Apparently it needs a unanimous vote so Orbab will do his usual snake in the grass act.
His concern is completely self-serving and all about Hungary's supply. Apart from his mouth doing its usual sneering, his actions have been consistent with the rest of the EU. They have proposed giving some countries, like Hungary, till 2024 to cut off Russian oil so he should agree. There is no political benefit for him remaining anchored to the sinking economic ship of Russia.
Jaysus the old TB2's are making the RuSSian Raptor boats their bitches!
The Snake Island attack may largely be a distraction. If the Uks. move on to it the Russians will Groznify it.
My thoughts ^
Why the hell do the Russians keep putting the boats under the TB2s? lol.
They said it cause it’s true. Generally the first resistance movements that start fighting are those that have arms readily available and have some kind of group structure already in place. Think If this was in America the first wave of civilian resistance would be groups like the proud boys and so forth, it’s just the nature of conflict. If the war ends these are the groups that maintain a stranglehold over the area and that’s bad.
The coverage of the 2014 conflict covered the Azov Battalion as Nazis. It also covered them as a semi autonomous Battalion. Plenty of coverage of them doing pretty brutal stuff including crucifixion and burning Russian soldiers alive. They weren't the good guys. That was before we (the West) really picked a side and were just reporting the situation.
Isn't it accepted that there are some pro Nazi groups in Ukraine as a remnant of the resistance against the Soviet Union? Like, the Russians didn't entirely invent the Nazi angle, they just grossly exaggerated it and used it as the reason to invade.
Russian convoy open fire on civilians car as they try to rescue their dogs.
He lost his father in the attack,, and two of three dogs killed.
I think this is a result of forest fires. #Krasnoyarsk - Twitter Search / Twitter
Interesting survey on how the war started https://twitter.com/heimbergecon/status/1523173814313848836?s=20&t=371VQTrqXoJhBGEGHo6Kyg
Anyone remember at the start the "experts" were saying that Russia would run out of money if they didn't win within the first two weeks or something? What happened to that?
There is a degree of concern about morality and some concerns about external impacts.
The ramifications of rampant inflation and grain shortages across the world should Russia take control of Ukraine could cause an even larger migration crisis in the short term.
I doubt detaining a relatively unknown youtuber will influence Russian PR and how they're viewed somehow.
That's sounds like a complete exaggeration and a fairly nonsensical thing to say. We did, however, have many who observed that if they didn't achieve the objectives in those 2 weeks it would be a long war.
its relatively quiet on the eastern front this morning apart from the below, what are the chances of a ceasefire for victory day tomorrow?
Don't think this has been mentioned, but Russian ships allowed to fish off Scotland thanks to licences granted by the Faroe Islands.
I wasn't cutting at people on this thread. It was in the general media that they would run out of money!
Yeah, I know it was a general comment, just surprised that anyone would adopt such a terribly daft position.
Isnt it fascinating though in an almost morbid way, how in almost real time this war is reported.
I remember there being some speculation that Russia couldn't finance the war after a few weeks, but it didn't make sense at the time.
I do have to ask why do you think your wife might be roaming around upstairs in my house 🤔😁
We need the Kerry Fishermens Assoc to go out and torpedo them!
Russia-Ukraine war: dozens feared dead after bombing of Luhansk school; Kyiv claims sinking of second Russian ship – live (msn.com)
Jesus but the Russian nutters are going further down the road of Hell every day. Killing kids because they're losing ships, that's just.......
If the energy funds is just about covering the war, then how are they financing the rest if the country? It must be biting.
Hungary doesn't want to veto, they just want a 5 year delay. That position is a complete non-runner but talks still ongoing anyway.
A brigade is usually 3-5k troops. It would seem unlikely that practically all have been killed, but then again Russia may have been exaggerating their numbers by calling them a brigade. Even if the perpetrators are dead, it does not take away the fact that Putin is a war criminal due to their actions.
If this conflict happened at the same time Nato forces were in Afghanistan I wonder would Russia of supplied the taliban with tons of guns and ammunition etc. I know the USA were in wind down mode with pulling out of Afghanistan but I'm just curious would military planners in the USA of said to Biden there is a good possibility in the near future that Russia may invade Ukraine and it would probably be a good thing if we do not have any of our forces in Afghanistan if you were planning on leaving them there longer even if reduced forces were there, when that happens as we will end up helping Ukraine with war materials and real time data to help them and we don't want any of our forces in Afghanistan then if this does happen that Russia can through a 3rd party attack them there? Just more wondering i presume military planners would look into future conflicts and this might of been 1 they kinda might of seen happen at some point.
Maybe the worker's party tendency is still alive in RTE.
Mother Russia still holds a special play in the heart of Socialists
