They can all gather around the burn off flame to keep warm. 👿
Russia's volume of energy sales/exports are going down, but so is their margin. There is a cost of extraction and storage (or burn off) and it's impacting the Russian economy.
Will the last person to leave Russia please turn off the light gas flame!
no comment…
Absolute animals. The world needs to deal with the Russian problem before it's too late. The pussyfooting around the edges is not going to work.
The catholic church has always been an agent for evil, so that's just keeping with long tradition and keeping up standards.
It is unfathomable that that is mainstream Russian TV and not a comedy sketch show
Alas for Russian state Dogma Telly Evangelists there is about as much chance of Zelensky and Putin getting married as there is of Russia attacking NATO Germany.
Underneath all of Russia's bravado by admitting they don't want any countries joining NATO they are saying they are afraid of attacking NATO countries. Like a baby not liking having sweeties put out of their grasp.
I have spent an entire lifetime having an interest in current affairs: Vietnam war, cold war, yet another desperate family mown down by machine gun while attempting to flee from East Berlin to the west, Pol Pot slaughtering millions, the PLO blowing up planes and assaulting olympic athletes, the Israelis doing worse and using cluster bombs and phosphorus munitions and invading Lebanon, Iran/Iraq war, The war on drugs, The evils of Pinochet, the horrendous tortures and disappearances in Argentina, The reprehensible actions of the US, from their southern border all the way down to where the land stops and the southern ocean begins, The Invasion of Kuwait, Gulf Wars I and II.
Having a healthy and strong interest in current affairs, particularly conflicts, is healthy, because they shape history and humanity and the world I have lived in. Your advocacy of ignorance, disinterest and the inhumanity of indifference disgusts me. Putin and other scum like him can get away with their evil deeds, largely in part due to wholesale indifference and ignorance you would pass off as virtue.
Do those style of Russian tv shows get much of an audience in Russia ? And do those who do watch them treat them as comedy or seriously ?
Hard to say - From Wikipedia... 'By May 2013, of the 53 million TV homes in Russia, 24% were equipped for Direct-to-Home satellite reception, making satellite the country's leading platform for digital television. The number of satellite homes across Russia continues to grow, increasing by 25% between 2011 and 2013 from 8 million to 12.6 million. 10% of these homes receive signals from more than one satellite position, taking the total number of antennas to 13.8 million.[5]
But, I'd say they'd get a decent amount of viewership.
What do you propose?
Solovyov appears to have gone stark raving mad in recent weeks. He's been calling for all sorts of crazy stuff - to flatten Kharkiv and Odesa, Russia to invade Poland and the Baltics, the regime to bomb targets in the West etc.
Zero risk of it happening, and good for ratings with a Trump like appeal to his audience, which he knows well.
There was interesting news this week that audiences for Channel One and Russia-1 have fallen by about 25% since the invasion started. I guess the public can take only so much of headbangers droning on for hours and hours about the 'special operation'.
More fires in the motherland
The Russian stoking europe/uk energy crisis is an attack on Europe yet again just like cyber attacks before
Think there needs to be a blockage of its trade routes or strychnine in their vodka
Defo a hymars strike on that TV show
Give Ukraine every advantage possible. Weapons that can reach Moscow and let them target Red Square if they want. Full on sanctions against Putin not the half arsed stuff we have now. Sanction the living sh it out of any company or organisation that even considers dealing with Russia in any way, shape or form.
Most importantly for now though is a full on assault by NATO forces on Russian military units holding the continent to ransom at the nuclear power plants. It's like we are just waiting for the inevitable disaster to happen instead of at the very least dealing with it now. Putin is laughing at the west at present and it's time to wipe the smile off his little fat botox filled face. Also Lavrov to be strapped to a B52 bomb and dropped from 38,000ft into the ocean would be nice.
I suspect it's more an advocacy of edginess.
Your proposing NATO attack Russia?
Healthy being the key word here cnocbui. Nothing I mentioned in my post could be described as healthy, so i'm not sure why you felt that was targeted at you and your healthy interest.
So NATO attacking Russian forces is what you are proposing?
In those households lucky enough to have a son who managed to nick a flat panel TV in Ukraine and post it back without Russia post breaking it, yes.
If you care to go back and read the first few hundred pages of this thread from where Ukraine was invaded, you would conclude I had a very unhealthy interest.
I'm not saying you don't have a healthy interest. Why you feel personally targetted here is beyond me, there are other people on this planet.
Sorry, but you know very little history if you think despots always get their comeuppance,and very little about human nature if you think evil men lie awake at next haunted by their conscience.
Unreal stuff.
Still would ! 🤪

Pure comedy-
But Russia are the ones with the gas so they can burn it in winter.
Assuming the infrastructure holds up. Wouldn’t bet on it.
That’s exactly what Putin would do the goal is to not do what he does..
