Interesting snippet from Russian TV. One of the guys is saying that when the DPR and Kherson etc become 'part of Russia' after the sham referendums, the regime is going to claim that Ukraine is currently occupying Russian territory. Looks like Putin is doing this so he can claim Russia is now at war with Ukraine (which appears to be a serious escalation).
Your assuming they actually work now. I wager there has been a lot of scenarios run now on this. 8 months ago Russia was a considered a partial superpower. We were wrong.
If NATO attacks Russian silos the Nukes will start flying both ways. Game over
how exactly ?
That would be the end of humanity
It won't happen. And if it did firstly a full conventional attack wipe out most of the Military in Russia siloes and alike. They don't need boots on the ground for that NATO and the USA. Attack is not invasion that way. Or they could just emp most of the place.
What is NATOS or the US response if Russia nukes Kiev? Have they started what would happen?
Yes the wolf was presented looked cool then realised it was a costume and a bunch of cats taped together underneath.
I think Russia is well past subtle. The Wolf in sheep's clothing trick only works once. After that if you invite the wolf for dinner you've only yourself to blame.
Well there are issues. It's not the Soviet union now. Will you convince the police to mass arrest and then have to go fight in the place of people in jail.
I can see a mass exodus from Russia, people marching towards Europe, breaking out of the **** hole before they're threatened with jail unless they pick up a gun
''Pro-Russian Zaporizhzhia governor Vladimir Rogov announces that Zaporizhzhia will declare independence after a referendum''
Can he tell the future, or is the vote corrupt😅
They really are dumb s hit s making comments like that.
Seems odd I get no issues. My only problem is handling of the refugee situation and Ireland has taken in to many. No ones accused me of being a bot. But then again I have never used both sides or some USA NATO this smoke and mirrors. Or Russia really bad but look Ukraine. It's been done to death here and people are well used to nonsense.
Yeah it really does...
Probably kgb retiree's bused in
First of the Russian prisoners recruited by Wagner.
Writes itself from the speech Wagner gave before telling convict recruits to blow themselves up before being captured and No surrender.
To then the state Duma realising wtf do we do in this situation. Ok we'll imprison anyone that surrenders for 10 years. That'll do it..
Civil war. Civil war. There's going to be civil war in Russia. Everyone sing along now. C.I.V.I.L war.
I am trying to explain the concept of subtle dropping of hints to "market creators" but some users on here have a lesser concept of subtlety than a Lambeg drummer or steam hammer driver, not picking on you btw. With them, if something is not minimum 105% pro Ukraine then it is anti Ukraine even if it has shag all to do with Ukraine. Hints about maybe having talks about maybe having discussions about importing some Russian coal is aimed at a whole non Ukraine and non Russian audience and also non physical coal customers.
in other news-
Today, Saturday, September 17, Russian warplanes launched air strikes targeting two stone-cutting machines on the outskirts of the village of Hafsarja, west of Idlib, injuring a worker, and raids loaded with cluster ammunition targeted forests in the area
Did they bus in the Retirement homes or something by the looks of it.
Plunge Ukraine into the 19th century With no electricity and internet so we can stop them trolling us with our social media (Russian)
These trolls do get quite antsy when they don't get their own way
Everyone loses once these things kick off.
Comedy gold , but utterly bizzare at the same time...
This is interesting coming out of Kazakhstan,not in the eu but enforcing sanctions .
"Enforcing sanctions" imagine that
You cause a bigger issue of losing credibility when you utilize brinkmanship.
It doesn't work like that.
Calm down and think about how some of this propaganda stuff works. Announce "discussions", speculators wind back their forecasts for ever more expensive resource, announce more "discussions" and hopefully start negative feedback loop and reducing coal prices. Everybody in west wins and Russia gets SFA.
I'd love to see whats happening at the troll farm tonight,
We know Russia will call up more troops but considering how much of the NCOs and senior officers they have already lost in Ukraine who's going to train and prepare the next batch of poor unfortunates for the Ukrainans to turn into fertilizer
Oh to be a fly on the wall in the Kremlin tonight....
Its exactly what it is.
Oil prices per barrel is down but wait let Russia increase revenues to continue it's war on ukraine.
And yet when the mere mention of the EU rolling back on sanctions this winter was mentioned it was met with shouts of Putinbots and the such.
If the mere discussion of this causes a reduction in spot and forward contract prices, then it will have done it's job. Read between the lines, not everything is always as it seems.
