To say it like this he is the Otto von Bismarck of our age. While the west has descend into ideological fracturing in the west particularly Canada and the US Which are one bad day away from descending into a civil conflict. For modern day Russia he has laid the ground work. My only hope is that the Russians are grooming competent leadership and just not dumb ideological yes men.
Pretty sure Russia is the POZ capital of Europe. They have a pretty bad HIV epidemic.
lol following her. it’s interesting to see that she’s literally in a life or death situation and seeing her country get fucking bombed and she’s getting policed about her language. giving her a follow for sure
A funny aspect of the sanctions, and their tanking of the Russian Ruble on forex markets, is that it makes Russian exports all the more appealing to those still willing to trade with Russia. With their currency weakened, Russian exports now have a big ON SALE sticker that makes them more competitive on int'l markets.
You can search it up yourself you lazy fucking lard. Stop asking to be spoonfed.
a astronomical sum of money that trade with timid and cautious partners is simply not enough to sustain especially if it starts to be known and noticed that it is sustaining the hated war effort by the rest of the world.
they tried and failed shock and awe because they suck and their army sucks ass and now theyre reduced to squatting and hoping the peasantry of ukraine dies of the plague before they have to deal with it again. also they kinda failed if thats the case with the intensive bombing in civilian areas including hospitals (dont even know if those claims are true in particular but an optics tank none the less) and saying that actually they didnt rely on that when they were posting about having this done and dusted within two days and lied about having taken down ukraines anti air early isnt accurate.
they dont make up that much of russias economy to say that being cut off will magically just have no effect when it doesnt seem like china or india are eager to prop it up singlehandedly and selling it for cheaper just makes it worse for russia lol
china hasnt been gung ho about this russia business and cant really afford to play at empire like russias trying to do especially since their main route is economic growth which russia is not offering rn, at best russia could offer an alternative economy not a growth from what china has now or could have leaving the granny state to wither in the cold north
putin is set on the old russian empire, if he wanted to keep nato off his border hes more than likely failed since finland is now ignoring nuclear warnings to join nato because of this as is sweden a close by nation who iirc fought for the nazis to keep the soviets off their back. i dont think youre sucking putins dick everyone here just has different bones to pick than i do, and i get hating ukraine and the west who use the same tactics when their oppressive but softer means dont successfully quietly sweep dissent under.
Pad didn't identify as a male. Pad Identified as a Pad. And dammit I'll respect Pad's pronouns until I'm planted in the grave.
i mean they can refuse ya. but if they are gifted those planes, and russia declares war on NATO they are gonna get drug into the conflict anyway. refusing doesn’t really do anything for them.
ahh ty. i did not know this had been deboonked.
The main wall street banks in the United States would literally force the US to war to keep any kind of "hard" gold-backed currency emerging in the world. Any kind of currency like
We finally get some anti-Ukraine coverage, and it's in the form of a fat old man from Texas. If somehow this doesn't end up being a victory for NATO in the propaganda war, anyone would be a fool to deny divine intervention.
I mean Russia can easily play them off against each other. India is a democracy after all and everyone from the communists to the fascists in the country can see that china poses an existential threat to India as a nation. India also has a growing population as well as a growing economy. China will face a severe population collapse soon and as a country will have to deal with an aging population as well as infastructure issues for growth and rebuilding too. Russia is about to become both an agrarian powerhouse as well as they're adopting modern farming methods and starting to become a bigger proverbial breadbasket.
I'd steal this cutie. Whoever she is.
i mean before sanctions even the only way i could see them being able to pay for a year of war is if putin is just suicidally retarded and hell fucking bent on claiming every single piece of soviet territory starting with ukraine. i should have phrased it like that, that i dont think theyd be willing to wheather the cost of a full fucking year of this shit for maybe a shot of all of ukraine but most likely just crimea and the two separatist regions.
Likely true, but there's little point in having a petrodollar/world reserve currency if the world is an irradiated husk.
Seems like a munitions depot, if I were to guess.Something big exploded near Mariupol
