What consequences Russia Foreign Ministry? Inquiring minds would like to know...

Ukraine is holding its own with American and Euro hand-me-downs. So unless that's another nuclear threat I fail to see what they could achieve against the arms suppliers of the world?

They NEVER could.

Not for the last 15 years anyway.

We are DECADES ahead.

DECADES.

In EVERYTHING.




Anyone want to tell me how wrong I was about that again?

Why are you all hiding?

I don't bite.

"Advisor to President Zelensky says that Ukraine at talks in Homiel insist on withdrawing of Russian troops from all internationally recognized Ukrainian lands, including whole Donetsk and Luhansk regions and Crimea"


Can I get a H3LL Yeah!

Ballsiest MFr on the planet.



Told putin EXACTLY what I would.

To his face.


Get the F out of Ukraine.

ALL of Ukraine.



Zelinsky For The Win!

there's a difference between bravery and utter stupidity.

when held at gun point, you don't make demands, you do what you're told to do. and so far russia is just toying with ukraine, trying to avoid civilian casualties. when putin grows tired, they'll just bomb the sh.t out of ukraine and then you'll see how much of a 'chance' it has in fight against russia.

but at that point ukrainian politicians will be either en route to tropical islands or just hiding in their bunkers. they won't be paying for that BS, no matter what they say or do right now.

Normally I'd whole heartedly agree.

Six days ago I'd agree.

Shout it from rooftops agree.

In fact I can't FKing believe that I AM disagreeing.



This guy may actually be the real deal.

Nobody is more surprised than me.



NEVER bet against the real deal.

he can be a pope.

nuke will still kill him. and many others, whose blood will be on his hands.

Just goes to show that great leaders can come from all walks of life when the shtf.

Spurious reports of thermobaric weapon usage by the Russians against Ukraine. Trying to find verifiable sources. I did see a video but I don't know much about these types of weapons to verify their usage, let alone if the video actually is in Ukraine.

Ukraine invasion opens faint, but once unthinkable, fissures between Putin and Russian oligarchs

LONDON — Fissures appear to be forming between Russian President Vladimir Putin and members of the oligarch class who made billions of dollars while showing fealty to the autocratic leader but now see their fortunes threatened by Western sanctions over the invasion of Ukraine.

The cracks are faint and fall short of suggesting any groundswell of oligarchic opposition to Putin, according to experts and Western officials. But expressions of unease that weeks ago seemed unthinkable have surfaced repeatedly in recent days.

After an earlier social media post calling for peace talks “as fast as possible,” Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska followed up on Sunday with a veiled shot at Putin’s stewardship of the economy, issuing a statement that said, “It is necessary to change the economic policy, it is necessary to end all this state capitalism.”

THIS Pope appears to have no concerns about putin using any.

Perhaps he knows someone with some skills is watching?

Wise Man, this Zelinsky.

That’s what I was afraid was going to be used soon. Those are some nasty weapons, there’s a good Wiki written about those weapons.

I doubt he's on the front lines. A lot of the pictures are to boost morale, but he didn't flee the country.
