Biden administration looking whether to apply or waive sanctions on India under CAATSA: US diplomat Donald Lu

Lu's remarks came as India drew criticism from US lawmakers, both Republicans and Democrats, at a hearing on the 'US relationship with India' for being among 35 nations that abstained Wednesday from a UN vote to rebuke Russia's invasion.

Anyway interesting analysis thread from someone who's called it mostly right so far

Clint Ehrlich (@ClintEhrlich)

SITREP - Day 8: Most analysts think the odds of a ceasefire are increasing in Ukraine. They have it exactly backwards. We've actually moved closer to the nightmare scenario where Kiev is simply leveled. 🧵

There are definetly other options then Russian Gas. Germany mostly imported Russian gas since it's cheap and convenient but now they need an alternative when the gas comes from "Nazis".

They are already fireing people in Germany just because they are Russians (No joke). They will go all-in and import gas from America or go back to nuclear power. There is technically also Turkmenistan who has a lot of gas reserves and they hate Russia but not sure how this will play out.

Münchner Philharmoniker: Putin-Freund Gergiev muss gehen

Der russische Dirigent und Putin-Vertraute Valery Gergiev ist nicht länger Chefdirigent der Münchner Philharmoniker. Er wird an der Isar keine Konzerte mehr dirigieren. Gergiev habe seine Haltung nicht "überdacht und revidiert", so OB Reiter.

These are just some isolated cases ofc.

But just look at the general anti Russian sentiment in the West right now. They even tried to ban freaking Dostoevsky from Universities since he is Russian. In my pov we already crossed the point of return and enter a new Cold War area were Russians are seen as complete Untermenschen.

Instead of exploiting the obvious retardation of Russia courting both Pakistan and India at the same time, the Eternal Burger instead tries to sanction the Pajeets. Rumor has it Biden plans to declare pooing outside the loo a capital offense.

We trade with both Pakistan and India. Well, for now. Apparently we're going to sanction around half of the global economy when this is over.

These's this case where a Russian got fired for refusing to denounce putin

SmartSelect_20220303-125715_Brave.jpg

Personally it's retarded to expect all Russians to just up and make statements about Putin being a poopyhead (especially if they have family in Russia and might like to return one day). But I can see how this came about.

The retarded thing is his "crime" was being in favour of crimea 2014:

But wasn't hired by them until 2016

So it was fine then but because he won't retract it now he needs to go?

Is that a bad thing? I can't wait for Joey to try and sanction China next. Go for it, Joe. Less plastic trash is actually environmentally friendly, you know!

You both forget that Russia is white and ethnically homogeneous, it’s no wonder the NPCs are whipped up into a shrieking frenzy against them. If it was China invading Taiwan we’d have article after article telling us we need to apologize to the squinty eyed people.

Russia is majority 'white' but it's not ethnically homogenous in the slightest. It's one of the most ethnically diverse countries on the planet (at least 193 recognized ethnic groups, most of whom have lived there for centuries if not millennia). If you travel east of the Urals you'll see just as many mongol, Inuit and turkic-looking peoples speaking fluent Russian as you will Slavs, if not more.

Although we've seen a lot of Ukr-Rus brutality, it's hard to judge Rus-Ukr brutality without seeing much of it.

Might be that they'll try him and execute him.

I imagine we'll deffo get to see something from the Donbas folks, since the more strict Russian OPSEC doesn't quite include them so they get to post their videos and whatnot publicly a lot more.

Bruh, you just saw a video, that the Russians released themselves, of a Russian abusing a POW. I'm sure treatment doesn't get better when the camera is off.
