fuck all this gay ass pro russia/ukraine debate bullshit. Might makes right, i dont care what the kiwifarm redditors think about who are the good® and evil® countries in this situation. There should be a new thread where only relevant information regarding the invasion of Ukraine is posted.

Discount prices doesn't mean at a loss (that would be crazy, lol). It means below current market rates, which are also crazy.
Idk what you mean by Yuan and Rupees being "non hard currency", they're two of the biggest countries in the world so it's not exactly Dogecoin, and meanwhile the US and European allies have been printing and spending trillions like a crazy man, so the old idea that Western currencies are inherently more stable no longer applies wow
Not really surprising Russia wants to sell its hydrocarbons in currencies it can get. The bigger story is China trying to persuade the Saudis to accept Yuan instead of US Dorrahs, which would be the beginning of the end of the US Dorrah as the #1 Daddy currency and have economic and strategic implications much more profound than who controls Ukraine's potato output, who 'wins' elections, the skin color and genital configuration of Supreme Court judges, Coof, racist cops, or any of the other bullshit we've been entertaining ourselves with over the last few years.

Nobody is trading with Yuan and Rupees, especially Rupees. And the trade volume of Russia-India is actually quite low, something about 4-8%, so not exactly big anyway. Rupees is weak, especially when you compare it to other strong currency like Yen. And Yuan is an extremely manipulated currency, not good for trade. Why do you think despite China's rising economy the last decade, no one wants to trade using Yuan?
And the Saudi thing is just a manouver to pressure US, everyone knows Saudi have their security and wealth from US. They can't trade that away just for the short-term gain of this war, especially if you know the many domestic-issues China and CCP have. Hell, there is report China might be reconsidering their support for Russia already. So I wouldn't exactly worry to much about the Saudi thing, its just your usual MBS BS

Thousands civilians are finally able to evacuate from #Mariupol as the #Russian army drives #neonazi #Azov regiment deep inside the city and opens green corridors.
No worries, That's not an E30
My calculation is simple. Globohomo hates Russia and loves Ukraine so I hate Ukraine and love Russia. Whatever Jews, burgers, Jewish burgers tell me to hate I will love.

Azov are glory hounds. They love tooting their own horn. They are a lot like the Chechen fighters like that. However, most of the defense of Mariupol is being done by the 56th Naval Infantry Brigade. Not the battalion of Azov. Just thought I would point that out.

So why did the Russian TV interrupted the broadcast when Putin is speaking? That sounds kinda weird and suspicious

"One of Ukraine's main media sources, Hromadske, discussing Donbass as a region that has a "huge number of absolutely useless people." Of the 4M in Donetsk area at the time, 1.5M are "superfluous," and "simply must be killed." Donbass is just a "source of resources."

Let me tell you a story.
Once upon a time there were two neighbouring countries with (mostly) the same language and ethnicity. One was much larger. For decades it had been engaged in political hostility with a global superpower. Its tiny neighbour, on the other hand, was a vassal of that global order, and sat threateningly right up against its borders. The leaders of the larger country, seeing that their superpower enemy was busy with severe crises back home and overseas, decided to invade their vulnerable neighbour and finally unite their people under one flag. It would be trivially easy. Not only did their own country boast overwhelming population size, but most of their neighbours were ethnic kinsmen who would surely throw down their arms (if they even bothered to pick them up in the first place) and joyously celebrate their liberation from their imperial oppressors. It wasn't like the smaller country had any real history or nationhood that distinguished it from theirs, nothing worth defending anyway. It would be, in their leader's words, a "mere matter of marching": all they'd have to do would be to parade across the border, and the war would end before it even began.
Not even the defenders' leadership believed they'd stand a chance, as their own estimation of the loyalty of their people was pessimistic indeed. Would they support a brothers' war against those who were effectively their own countrymen? Many of them had lived in the larger country, or had even been born there. As invasion became more and more inevitable, the situation was grim.
However, shockingly to both sides, the larger country's military operation was much more shambolic than anyone expected. Not only did support for the invasion not materialize among the defending population, but the invaders' reliance on huge numbers of poor-quality militiamen, who often fled at the first sign of trouble or simply refused to advance, hindered them greatly. On the other side, the outnumbered defenders were led, equipped and supported by* one of the world's most powerful militaries. The "mere matter of marching" became long and bloody. Both sides used merciless ethnic minorities from the hinterlands to terrorize and brutalize their opponents. However, though the invaders were able to capture and lay waste to several cities, in the end their goals were never met, and their long-awaited unification with their "compatriots" never occurred.
The irony of the invasion was that, in the long term, it accomplished the opposite of the invaders' goals. Rather than uniting their similar peoples, it drove a wedge between them and set the two countries on separate paths for centuries to come. Though largely forgotten elsewhere, the war became a founding myth for the smaller country, which had been, until that point, an expression on a map and nothing more.
But enough about the War of 1812, let's talk about the Russo-Ukrainian War...

Yes, the place was defended by British regular troops, so the camparison only goes so far, but that would give it away too soon. Shhh.{/SPOULER]

I had the same reaction with a youtuber getting Polish names sort of right one time, I was surprised to hear someone even try,
I think there's just a block in people's minds where they're like "I simply refuse anyone would have the audacity to mash those consonants together and I refuse to entertain it" hence why you get things like "Keev", because a Y sound after a K sound just sounds unnatural for English speakers.

Here's the Guardian debonking the biolabs story
Wait for it...
It's a near perfect example of yellow press journalism. Throw out a lot of rhetorical insults and denouncement of conspiracy theorists, then at the end of the piece admit that it's all true but claim the US defense department are funding pathogen research for entirely altruistic and humanitarian reasons. Because as we all know the Pentagon has a long and storied history of that kind of thing.
I take it from this, and similar, pieces in the MSM that the real situation is even worse than what we're guessing. I strongly suspect the burgers have been using Ukraine as a centre for human experimentation. A mafia run country which is a nexus for global human trafficking would be the perfect location.

Tbh I expected Serbia more than Ukraine, then again given that Ukraine is the top destination for kidnapping hot slavic girls and whoring them out across Europe it makes sense that the ugly ones get kidnapped and experimented on in a lab.

"Let me hug you"
An elderly woman from the recently liberated Olginka cannot hold back her tears after she realized that she was not in danger.
The woman hugged the guys from the @anna_news film crew, who explained that the war was over for her.
