Now why dont you post the war mongers from the British side who were threatening Russia since the past 8 years? or more recently like those US officials?

The same 8 years that russia was trying to steal Ukrainian land for itself?

So it was the civilian airline's fault for being near russians, not the fault of the russians who actually shot it down over sombody else's country while illegally invading that country to steal it's land?

Nice try.

Yet Kiev allowed the civilian aircraft into an area where they knew a conflict was happening.

Lame excuse.

Russia have a track record in this type of thing. They shot down a Korean Air Airliner in 1983.

That is a really informative article. It took me a while to read itall.

The part where the Bill for lend lease being dated a month before the invasion should have made national news unfortunately they are all controlled.

It was backdated so Ukraine wouldn't have to pay for what we already sent before the law was passed, it isn't indication that the law existed prior to it passing.

Nice try though.

You are forgetting about this Iranian airliner.

Not forgetting it what so ever.

I am refering to Russia's actions, not The U.S. This thread is about Russia afrer all.

Start a new thread about America's criminal actions and i will contribute.

It's difficult to accept an issue is not as black and white as you would like it to be. It is my opinion that when your side does the same, it's not the best thing to accuse others.
You are bringing Russia has a track record of this type of event. Well, guess what... They are not the only ones. I show you the fact, you dismiss them as irrelevant. People in glass houses maybe shouldn't throw stones...
If you cannot be logical, don't bother posting.

So Putin said do not invest in Russia ever again. That won't have any negative consequences I'm sure.

Russian oligarchs travelled overseas before Russia invaded Ukraine outright. But Russia was never a playground for the "rich and famous." So will the Russian government seize the assets of airlines, fast food and other multinational companies that pulled out of the country?

Wish they would confiscate Nancy pilosi's since she is over in Ukraine. Lol, chances are they don't want her drunk ass either. Although that smile and eyeballing of Zelenski has me thinking she finally cleaned out the cob webs.

Sorry but I had to, look at her pictures of said event they posted on the news. LOL looks like she slept with a hanger in her mouth.

The same security council who violated their own arms embargo on Libya with advanced weapons from each nation showing up there. The same one who's most populous nation on Earth stole a bunch of islands and a swath of sea in Asia from their neighbours. That's the one.

That's a lot of words to say "we're imposing sanctions on those who impressed sanctions on us"

contrary to international law

Dodgy territory for a country who has violated international law on a number of occasions most recently with this illegal attack on its neighbor.

Sergey Lavrov:

I would like to stress that Russia is acting to fulfil its obligations under bilateral agreements on cooperation and mutual assistance with the DPR and LPR, at the official request of Donetsk and Lugansk under Article 51 of the UN Charter on the right to self-defence.

For that to work they would have to be recognised as independent states by the UN which they are not , they are still part of Ukraine.

Let's see how Ukraine treats its parts.

Statement by the Head of the DPR Denis Pushilin in connection with the critical military situation in the Republic

February 21, 2022

Dear residents of the Donetsk People's Republic! Over the past 24 hours, the situation in the Republic has become critical.

Ukraine is conducting massive shelling of our territory. Only in recent days, the artillery of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has fired more than 1,700 mines and shells at residential areas. We are being hit with heavy artillery, mortars, grenade launchers and tanks. People are dying. Schools No. 105 and No. 56 in the capital received serious damage.

Ukrainian troops continue to shell the settlements of Zaitsevo, Gorlovka, Donetsk, Yasinovataya, Kominternovo and Dokuchaevsk.

The situation in the Mariupol direction has sharply aggravated. The militants of the 36th brigade attacked the positions of the People's Militia units in the Kominternovo area. There is a battle near the border with the Russian Federation.

As a result of mortar and artillery shelling, one serviceman of the People's Militia was killed, several people were injured.

Ukrainian sabotage groups have become more active in cities and towns, the actions of which are aimed at carrying out terrorist acts against civilians and life support facilities. A water pumping station was put out of action, attempts to destroy the oil depot in Yelenovka and a terrorist attack at the Stirol plant were prevented.

Only by a lucky chance, as a result of an attempted terrorist attack in the area of ​​the railway station, no one was injured, the saboteur himself was blown up.

Citizens of the Republic!

We must combine all efforts. I call on the entire male population - all those who are able to hold weapons in their hands - to come to the military commissariats and stand up for their families, their children, wives, mothers and our Fatherland.

Together we will protect Donbass and all Russian people! Together we will achieve victory!

Why is he a usurper? Was it he who staged a coup in Ukraine in 2014?
