Russia has them and have nuclear armed ones. The US has them but not nuclear equipped yet.
And that’s what I’m thinking, if they are a ‘superpower’ what is their real strength? Have they got the force to actually win or use their perceived force and hope countries roll over. We know putin is a liar and propagandist. So is Russia much more weaker than we think?
I hope the Ukrainians drive the cints back to Moscow but I fear the Russians have more up their sleeves
I saw something earlier today about there supposedly being three briefcases, and the code for each one is only known by one person - a different person for each briefcase. Putin is one, for one briefcase. And to use nukes, all three have to agree to use the codes only known to them.
I have no idea where I read that, but I read it, and I have no idea whether it is bullshit or not.
Is the Russian missiles public knowledge. The Chinese published that they have them and tested them
The best the Ukrainians can do is bleed them white until the Russians can take no more casualties.
Yes the Russian tests have been detected. They only have a few I think.
Is this true? A good sign of Putin showing cracks…
Orban faces an election on April 3rd. The opposition is united.
None of what is happening at the moment can help his chances - if Hungary’s election is fair enough. Which there has to be doubts about at this stage.
I think I would tend to would steer away from Vindman’s tweets during this. He is a good man, but seems easily fooled by fakes since the war started.
I think the “story” about Gerasimov being fired is probably not correct, or at least we don’t have evidence about it.
Hungarian economy was going grand because they were getting cheap gas from Russia. This might change things. Sanctions on Russia would be a fair kick up the hole for the Hungarian economy, they haven’t suffered the same energy price increases as the rest of the continent.
Natural resources. Population.
If this is true (and if something seems to good to be true, chances are it probably is), hello.
The timing is fantastic there’s a 3 mile long column of Russians on the way to Kiev that need to be cluster bombed.
Natural resources are the only thing keeping economy afloat over there. Even at that the country’s resources where commandeered by mafia lads like abromovic.
Population has been falling dramatically. Low Borth rates and people questioning putin no doubt
The most predictable “result” of the day.
This is desperate news…
It was well flagged, I flagged it five or six days ago. Sadly utterly predictable. The people of Belarus have suffered enormously under that bastard Lukashenko.
The video from Kharkiv last night was the most frightening of all. 20 miles from the Russian border.
“Our lives have narrowed to the limits of basements. Our Drt Clinic, where life was born, has become a shelter for patients with young children of employees. Thank God - the house has thick walls and a solid basement.” 2/4
“The Russians are destroying everything: residential neighborhoods, kindergartens, hospitals, even a blood transfusion station,” these three doctors write. “Our guys from the ARMED FORCES of UKRAINE have been defending our lives for the fourth day.” 3/4
They continue: “But we understand that without the support of the whole world, we will not be able to cope with the Russian invasion. Please, help the PEOPLE OF UKRAINE.” 4/4
