International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15

[PEB]

Discharge partition seems to be potentially happening. A number of Republicans in key cabinet positions have announced they will be retiring. This could get enough votes to get the Discharge petition to move.

 

[SandisLL]

Grippen actually is more suitable for Ukr than F-16 because considerably lower requirements about airfield quality and runway lenght and also does have lower effective radar reflection cross section than F-16.
All this is nice, nice and nice until we start to think about spare parts and experienced technicians awailable and there F-16 does have huge advantage vs Grippen....

 

[SandisLL]

Transistria....
Looks that Kremlin badly wants to escalate situation .....ASAP....
While separatists thus far appeared very lethargic and therefore KGB and Putin are really angry..........

 

[SandisLL]

These houthis in Yemen: they again had attacked very large commercial ship .....
Looks that we will need to install troops in Yemen otherwise there will not be safety for ships in this area....to launch some missiles on this shithole isn't solution....

 

[Denter]

This is reality...
He will be elected IF ....Russia will not have soap stamps and vodka&sugar and cigarettes stamps.....reason why USSR dream collapsed and communists in Russia had declared independence of Russian Federation from USSR....
Ammount of underground ecomomy then was approx 50%......

I read an interesting article about how "speculators" in the USSR for incredibly rich moving informal and foreign goods. Crazy times. They used to hand out harsh prison sentences for it but it just grew and grew.

 

[Denter]

Because he murders and jails all opposition, part of having free and fair elections is to allow political opposition to exist.



If he stops murdering people that oppose him and he allows free and fair elections, there would be more people to actually run against him.


Russia isn't a real country, its just Putin fiefdom, Russia exists only to serve Putin's interests, if you are a Russian nationalist or a Russian liberal that only wants the best for the country, it doesn't matters you oppose Putin and your life is forfeit.

That's a mafia State.

No, Russia existed before Putin, before Stalin, and before the Romanovs, and will exist in the future. One man is temporary; I had thought Alexei Miller would be the successor but now I have no idea.

I agree but it's a hard sell at home.

 

[SandisLL]

I agree but it's a hard sell at home.

We already have delayed shipments via Suez route .....shipments from China, SK, Japan, India and Gulf countries....
Price for 1 standard naval container transfer already rised 2X....

So for long term this will be even worse and most likely europe and U.K will order carpet bombing and after this to install troops....
Next week will be meeting to discuss options.

 

[PEB]

US doing the work for Putin and EU is blowing the US out of the water in Ukraine funding. Zelensky has given up on the US support.

 

[SandisLL]

This is reality. We in europe do have 0 trust for U.S and we are calculating that Trump will be POTUS again.
And therefore U.S weapons sales to europe might slowly end....like LNG sales too.
Existing already signed contracts will be paid smoothly according to contratcts, IF weapons will be delivered ....there are 0 questions about this....while next contracts in future are under huge burden of questions....

 

[SandisLL]

Zelensky btw too is really dumb like Yermak and his office....

They are insisting that they are fighting for EU and so on.
They didn't had calmed down after Latvia ( yeah according to them mice and peace of shit ) didn't had signed additional individual assistance bill 500 000 000 EUR....
This is additional on top of stuff EU collective assistance is providing and really directly paid by their taxpayers by 100%.
State Treasury NEVER will sign this bill.
Therefore now on the table is additional bill added to all this collective assistance.
Now + 200 000 000 EUR and IF they will sign this bill... they will require additional audits done....how Ukr had used IMF, World Bank, IBRD, EBRD loans...
Damn......
And it isn't joke, they are not just partner , they are eurozone country and full World Bank and IBRD & EBRD member......likes this or no.
It will be .....hell starting for Ukr.

Looks like Denmark has joined Canada in pledging money to get Pavels artillery stockpile plan off the ground.

Pavlův plán funguje. Munici pro Ukrajinu zafinancuje Dánsko, Kanada i další státy - Novinky

Ministryně obrany Jana Černochová prohlásila, že plán prezidenta Petra Pavla na nákup dělostřelecké munice pro Ukrajinu zafinancují Kanada, Dánsko a další země, které svoji podporu vyjádřily prozatím v anonymitě.

[SandisLL]

Pavel is smart.
I will tell one story what is small special operation.
Terrorists had hostiges and ofc they had locked them ( hostiges = ordinary civies including kids )...
They had blackmailed government and this stuff had been kept in silence.
One day terrorists woked up and appeared that they now does have 0 hostige ....without any shot fired...this is small special operation and Pavel then yet wasn't general.

 

[Boxiana]

For those still supporting Ukraine and thinking there’s no Neo Nazi infestation in their military



The Zelensky and Bandera loving neo Nazi regime must be eradicated at all costs.

Sending children to war is so profoundly depressing, no matter which side

 

[SandisLL]

BTW I will post a lot of nasty things not comfortable for Zelensky - Yermak administation and some prophet in Arestantovich...
Putin's informal nickame in russia is Huilo and Zelensky in Ukraine= Huelensky...and Arestantowich is beauty in Monaco Casino...
Stuff is very painful and really sharp while in democracy we should allow all critique and questions....and to use logical thinking....
I'm scared to post shit but it is.....real life.
Well known for ppl. Easily to google up if someone isn't dumb.

 

[SandisLL]

Arestantowichhh didn't had bothered to meet with local ukrainians community in my country and instead opted for beauty saloon and restaurant.
Then after this there was no pressure from local Ukr community on parliament to push up more aid and more than this: Girl arestantowochhh clown afforded to be really cocky with our MoD.
Outcome was 0 autocannons supplies from my country while after begging from Reznikov our MoD agreed to pay money for ammo batches for them.

 

[SandisLL]

Zelensky visit.
Ukrainians, we are using round robin to rotate VIP cars ( armoured limousines ) and if for Huelensky according to some cocky idiots , old and bad was car Clinton and cardinals & German president had used...then ....we gave all the best....and instead to tell thank you we had get slap in the face as true payment from some ukr troll farms...

 

[Cole train]

Fairly interesting case

One of our bank people tracked where russia gets its soldiers by tracking bank deposits

And of course its poor regions

Tuva at number 1 followed by in no particular order dagestan, kalmykia, chechnya, Buryatia and Altai

Not much actual "russian" soldiers and also they are being paid ridiculous money to join up, recruitment bonus is 10x average pay

 

[SandisLL]

Yes, poor regions.
Also Putionoids....
I had to see one video and guy putinists had hired for me looked in general nice lad, while brainwashed guy& putinoid. He told that Putin is protecting Russia.. .despite loaded with painkillers and smoking weed + also a bit drunk......he still managed to be pretty normal even in this condition. Also he otherwise wasn't bad at all, until questions about Putin. Then he appeared that is... .putinoid.. told that Putin is protecting russia and him..... despite guy now does have damaged leg.....

No, Russia existed before Putin, before Stalin, and before the Romanovs, and will exist in the future. One man is temporary; I had thought Alexei Miller would be the successor but now I have no idea.

Has it though? Seems to me like "Russia" is whatever Moscow can control via force and in the end "Russia" is just an absolute monarchy, the State exists to serve its ruler who is supported by loyalists, loyal to Putin, not loyal to the country interests.
