Think you need to block him.
1. no, they would not have, I'd say
2. yes, but Putin uses Ukraine as an example what could happen if you flirt with NATO and are not yet under its protection
Do we expect Putin to attack Turkey? No fecking way. He aint going nuclear either. He is fecking done.
We are living through a huge moment in the history of the world. Hopefully, the autocrats in Europe are done which will have huge cascade effect all over Eurasia.
To hero worship Putin was viable option because of the shit west (mainly USA) was doing and Putin was their only counterpart. After this shitshow there is no excuse.
Watching what is happening in Ukraine is dreadful, but one positive thing is that Ukraine is mich better at defending themselves as I thought they will be and their citizens turned out to be real heroes. Hats off for the courage and loyality to their country.
This isn't about whether you consume it yourselves, it could easily just be about transit. For export.
It certainly is a big moment and might result in a geopolitical shift, but I don't just yet see how this would result in all eurasian autocrats being done. Quite the opposite seems more likely, honestly.
You’re right in a sense, but reading stuff like that is my guilty pleasure. Far more entertaining than pictures of people’s pets and kids.
Suppose everybody has to have a pillock in their group.
That's possible but it doesn't apply to everyone.
Not sure what your sources are, but these are the numbers from Gazprom in 2020.
1. Netherlands
2. Germany
3. Italy
4. Turkey
5. France
Norway not even in the top 13 (as expected). Neither are Japan.
I would love to explain my POV but it will be a wall of text. I will get back to this, once this war is over. Let me assure you that some countries that are allies and close friends of Russia are stepping aside already.
I expect him to sail his warships through just as before and then turkey not to fire on them
Really depends on how this war ends and especially when.
Also, I don't mind walls of texts - I got the rona and plenty of time to read and am looking for something positive in this world. And your outlook seems to be rather comforting. But take your time, just know that I don't have anything better to do than read what you think.
I have a few exemples of facebook/twitter "friends" myself (real people) who bashed french governement and pretty much any media that were encouraging vaccines because they "LieD tO Us, tHey're ManiPuLated by thE sTATE!!" and who posted a comment like "Take a look at that if you want to truely be informed about the Ukraine war" with Putin's statement on Russia Today attached.
Cognitive dissonance is strong... All of them anti-vax right wing nuts. Right wing nuts admire dictators because they like the display of power (and the religious anti-progressive views).
Vidman listing very specifically what needs to be done on CNN right now.

PS: If I'm not mistaken the gas coming from Algeria is exploited by Gazprom. Using Gazprom figures won't really tell you much, it's like Total figures, it's a french company but the gas and oil don't come from France.

How skillfull are Belarussian units? Have they participated in any recent operations?
Ironic use of the word intelligence
Yeah, well...
Let's start with Libya being responsible for Pan Am Flight 103 (Lockerbie Bombing) and the Berlin Disco Bombing
Gaddafi was clearly funding international terrorism
Granted, it wasn't NATO's greatest moment, but don't justify his transgressions with his education record.
Also Gaddafi was probably buddies with Putin who was with the KGB at the time.
At this point, looking at the Russian forces, you'd hope they have
Autocrats aren’t down till they finish off Optimus Prime!
They are good at beating up unarmed protesters but thats probably the only experience they have.
Not sure what we’re talking about here. Norway is not a top 5 importer of Russian gas. Not even close.
Fecking primate.
Chechens, Belarussians, and potentially Assad-aligned Syrians...war is never quite fair but this is fecking ridicilous.
Keep it coming! Roof shelves don't help much apparently.
Sure mate. Will do.
Chechens are Russian so I get it. If Belarus and Syria get involved I find it hard to see why we shouldn't anymore.
There is a strange coincidence in that war against Gaddafi. It was pushed by France after french judges accused his campaign of being illegally financed by Gaddafi which was then confirmed by Gaddafi. People make of that what they want.
Getting away with war crimes as all the west does is send supplies and cut off bits of money here and there.
Perhaps more use with logistics and supply chain given the advance from the north is mainly from Belarus
Sure mate. Will do fairly soon. Things are going much better than many expected thus far.
UK MoD update:
Thanks for the helmets!
