I just didn't need another reason to hate Reddit, but they gave it to me. From the the Cranberry juice to the fat redhead NATO guy, I cringed. I always cringe on Reddit, but this was penultimate cringe. Right down to the music my boomer girlfriends like that makes me cringe right out of their phone number.

Russia has nearly doubled its revenues from selling fossil fuels to the EU during the two months of war in Ukraine, benefiting from soaring prices even as volumes have been reduced.

Russia has received about €62bn from exports of oil, gas and coal in the two months since the invasion began, according to an analysis of shipping movements and cargos by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air.

Who could possibly have predicted that sanctions would actually help the Russian war effort by rocketing up gas and oil prices? What an unexpected development.

Lauri Myllyvirta, lead analyst for CREA, said the cash propped up Putin’s war effort, and the only way to disable his war machine was to move rapidly away from fossil fuels.

The only way to 'move rapidly away from fossil fuels' is to embark on a massive nuclear reactor construction program, either Uranium, Thorium or both. There is no shortage of wind farms in the EU, the more they build the more Russian gas they need to keep the lights on.

If they start now they might start to commission the first nuclear plant by 2032 and make a dent on Russian dependency by 2040.
Of course they have no intention of building nuclear power plants so they will continue giving the Russians tens of billions per month for the indefinite future.

The West was literally expecting Russia to give them free gas.
Worse. They sanctioned Russia to hell and back and still are expecting it to give them free gas.

I am actually surprised by all the indignant noises coming from the EU about "breach of contract" and "blackmail". Dudes. Dudes. You seized Russia's gold reserves and kicked it out of all your banking and legal institutions. Boo fucking hoo.

By kicking it out of EU you freed it from your courts jurisdiction. And you already closed your ports, closed your airspace, banned Russian trucks, confiscated Russian assets, nationalized Russian companies, fired Russian employees, cancelled Russian music and literature, disconnected Russia from SWIFT, pulled out all of your businesses and wrote a blank check for a war by proxy IN THE FIRST WEEK.

Cope, seethe, dilate and pay for the gas in roubles. Because there is literally nothing else that you can possibly do to punish Russia more.
 
Two new arrests of supposed Ukrainian saboteurs:
1. City of Vladimir (arrested for calls for terrorism).



2. Simferopol (former Ukrainian marine, arrested for attempted terrorism in form of explosion and arson).




I wonder if it just fake videos because FSB don't want to feel left out from all the action and don't want army and Chechens to get all the laurels, or is it actually true.

I have no doubts that some Ukrainian retards sitting comfortably in Russia start shitposting pro-Ukrainian sentiment on social media. And that it turns out that some of them are radical enough to consider going full terrorist.

Yup, that's a terrorist.
 
These fucking people in media.

Yeah Canada....that last bastion of free speech.
Ethno-nationalism is good when it's some other country.

To people in other countries, the USA's foreign policy doctrine, "It's different when we do it," sounds like a gag. But I can assure you, everyone in Washington unironically believes it. They really did think that after tearing up every single international agreement, written or handshake, to sanction Russia, that Moscow would continue to abide by the terms of a functionally null contract because Washington had taken away Russia's ability to receive payment for gas. They thought this, because we're the good guys, so when we seize your assets and cut off your banking, we're just doing good guy stuff, but not giving our EU vassal states gas is bad guy stuff, so it's still wrong.

This brokebrain faggot so gay that he left the plate of human meat lying on the ground so that his cat got in a couple nibbles :'(.
Weird flex but ok
 
USA is so incompetent in XXI century that it can't preform a covert operation
They have a tendency of failing, that's all I'm saying. In 1953 it was easier.
Also, I like the implication that the US has be ability to start a coup out of nowhere as soon as Yanukovich slipped, but Russia simply allowed it to happen without interference.
I sure hope so, but Nuland phone call suggest to me that there was some kind of interference on US side. I guess we will know for sure in 2074, if US is still standing.
The phone call suggests that people involved in politics talk about politics. It wouldn't even make sense to have that conversation if the US had a plan. If you go in an listen to the call with the mind made up on the fact that the US pre-selected politicians to take over after the coup, that's what you'll hear.
but Russian government proposed peace deal day one that, if signed, would proclaim DNR/LNR as sovereign nations, Crimea would be proclaimed part of Russia, Ukraine stays out of NATO (believe there was nothing about disallowing Ukraine join the EU, so they could have done this after the war was over, though EU would probably cockblock them for 1000 years, as they do with Turkey,), probably something about not blocking water to Crimea and that's it.
So let's recap:
- Ukraine takes a huge blow by losing an industrial area to Russia permanently, with no hope of getting it back
- Ukraine is forced to hand out gibs to Crimea because Russia wants territory but makes surprised Pikachu face when the country they took the land from withholds their resources
- Ukraine has zero guarantee Russia will not invade again because it cannot seek military alliance.
How the fuck is this a "peace deal"? This is shaking down a country for lunch money, and absolutely no guarantees Russia will not come back tomorrow.

This "rules for thee" shit is seriously baffling. Either we are playing by the rules of engatement, and then confiscating Russia's gold reserve and nationalizing its properties are not okay, or we are not playing by the rules and it's Economic World War One where anything goes. The West chose the latter and is now surprised Pikachu facing hard.

Most people learn that punching someone gets you a punch in return long before kindergarten.

And before people try to gotcha me with a "haw haw Russia attacked first suck it vatnik", I'd like to point out the concept of proportional response exists for a reason. Yes, attacking Ukraine was a retarded dick move. No, it was not sufficient reason to send the entire world order tumbling down on our heads, and by "our" I do not mean myself and my countrymen. The ripples and aftershocks will make it worse for everybody.

The Russian economy is apparently doing just fine. Full shops, no inflation, growing economy.

Yes they've been denied access to western services. Indispensable necessities like McDonalds and Instagram, but as global finished manufactured goods are almost all made in China unless they get Xi Jinping onboard the Russians will happily keep swapping their oil and gas for Android phones and Chink made machine tools.

This is the greatest example of pwning the bear by fucking yourself. If Putin does actually stop or even restrict hydrocarbon exports the EU will collapse. The seethe and cope coming out of DC and London can't change that reality. But the idiots in charge of the west are so retarded and delusional they'll keep pushing their proxy war in the expectation that one day Russia will be transformed into a diverse and inclusive outpost of globohomo with African migrants and a trans friendly government that will mandate gender reassignment surgery for 5 year olds. They can't give up the dream so they'll keep pushing their gay ops. Putin has shown remarkable restraint up to now, for all our sakes I hope that continues.
