So the rest of Europe could do the same?
Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion

Norway.
This is a 6 year old video.
This is for sure made up but we can probably add up how much their sanctions cost their economy. USA did not have any real sanctions for invading Iraq, right?
I was just wondering how badly it would hit Russia if countries went elsewhere for their gas supplies.
I don’t know how big their resources are. However some countries are also getting theirs from Nigeria I think.
Information warfare is also part of a war, the west has chosen its side.
You want the west to care about factual reporting in a middle of a war ?
Somewhat agree. If you told us this time last week that we would find ourselves here where we are now, we wouldn’t believe it and we would think the world is ending. I’ve gone to bed each of the last three nights fearing the worst, and I’m just thankful for the last two that we have woken to something better than it otherwise might have been. I’m glad the West is now awakening too, but Ukraine is still in an utterly perilous position. Unlike a few though, I always expected Ukraine to resist as much as they can. I only hope it will be enough.
What?
The resources are _big_.
Not sure how to solve it logistically, or if Norway can even increase production fast enough to meet new demands in time, but Norway is currently the worlds third biggest exporter of gas.
Yeah now that you mention it, it does feel made up.
As I've said in my post, it's clear that, thankfully, Ukraine is dealing with it way better than Putin (probably) thought that it would.
Do we know what the plan was ? Any leak docs with putin signature detailing the objective that have to met within a certain timeline.
War101 - Every side is winning the war until the moment they're not. Have you forgotten baghdad bob ?
I'm guessing that if you include the losses in capitalisation of Russian companies over the past few days the figure can be even higher. But yeah, the transcript is certainly made up.
The US had to move all its troops, planes, ships, armor, artillery, and war infrastructure to Iraq, then pay to maintain it. All done for 10b a month. There’s no way the Russians are paying 10b a day for a war next door.
Most EU countries that are heavily relying on gas supply from Russia were counting on winning the war in Syria to get their gas via turkey and end their need for Russian Gas. Germany, France, Belgium all invested heavily in arming ISIS and what they ended up with was thousands of refugees and terrorist attacks within, this is why now "NATO" is pulling hard to bring in Ukraine so there could be a possibility to use Ukraine's Gas to supply EU, hence the current conflict in my opinion.
What ballpark percentage of us military was engaged in the first month in iraq?
Ok, I'll believe you, the west has not chosen a side and is entirely neutral and isn't helping anyone.
My faith in humanity has diminished over the last 5 years. I really don’t want to find out
You are troll. Someone needs to remove you.
Is there a source for any of this?
Insulting another member
I suggest you educate yourself about the conflict instead of being an idiot, go on do your search before talking shit.
I agree, not a chance. Just saying their real cost may be higher than what US cost would have been due to the hit their economy will inevitably take.
Do my own research, never thought about it. But you are still an actual troll.
That's interesting.
France don't heavily rely on gas and only 20% of it comes from Russia. The main source of french gas is Norway at 43%.
It would be even more interesting if it was true.
I'm not entirely sure there's a single true statement in that post
UK doesn't rely on them either apparently, we have so much gas ourselves plus we are a customer of Norway. Who is Russia's biggest customers?
I think Germany and Italy are big on Russian gas, but don't have any numbers
At this point it do more harm to them than good if they killed Zelenksy. They want a surrender, there's already little chance of that ever happening, but if he goes down as a martyr there is none.
A ballistic/cruise missile would, looks like this is some more conventional rocket or stray anti-air.
Sure it is, crap i'd be happy to spread far and wide.
If you believe that Kremline statement I've a bridge to sell you :P
It’s so obvious British airways have been cyber attacked by the Russians or Chinese, seems we spout bullshit too.
It’s the stories and pictures of kids that kill me the most:
One of the biggest demonstrations I've ever seen in Tallinn right now. Unfortunately couldn't go as I got the rona.
In 2019, the top 5 was Italy, Japan, Belarus, Norway and Slovakia.
Nor does Belgium for that matter.
All those who believe that Putin could level Ukrainian cities through heavy bombardment are in the wrong. Putler still calls this an operation. If we start seeing total distructions, it won't be only about NATO anymore. USA, UK, and other countries will intervene. It is a horrific war, but thus far Putler seems to be doing much worse than expected.
