Russian invasion of Ukraine

You have to laugh, Medvedev.....

"The USA is our enemy and their talkative 'peacemaker' has now fully set on the path to war with Russia," wrote former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on social media. "The decisions that have been taken are an act of war against Russia."

Russian stuff blowing up: Ukraine to buy Gripen fighters from Sweden

Ukraine makes a good choice for fighters. Ukraine struck an oil refinery in Dagestan, munitions plants in Bryansk and Saransk and a power plant in Smolensk. The plant manufactures anti-personnel engineering munitions and mine-laying kits, detonators...

Sanctions have to evolve to combat workarounds so putting all on in one go would still mean more to follow.
Doesn’t excuse Trump though for giving Putin a window of opportunity for these latest US ones

Sanctions do have to evolve, in cases of lesser severity. But you don’t give a murderer or child abducted a slap on the hand, especially if they’ve shown a pattern of such behaviour.

It makes you wonder what sanctions Trump has actually put on Russia or, if in the background, America has actually rescinded some?

Give this a watch only 7 minutes long, obviously i have to put a lot of faith in the translations being somewhat accurate. At no point does he seems to question why they're fighting it's more to do with how bad his own side is and the conditions.

That is such a sad watch , even from a point of view of the Russians being the enemy that poor guy just sat knowing he likely has days to live and is fighting for nothing, such a sad waste of life.

Yep having your life or sacrifice mean fuck all and be treated like a you're worthless. I wish russians actually knew what their superiors actually think of them and they stopped being serfs.

They probably don't feed them as they expect them to die. For those soldiers if they go back they get shot by their own side, go forward and get shot by the UKA.

I reckon he must be in his 50s maybe 60s. Pretty much sums up where Russia is at. Sending old times to the front without proper supply. Hope this video gets about in Russia.
 
The Russians are disgusting aren't they? No respect for human life.

I've recently been to Sri Lanka which is swamped by Russian tourists and they treat Sri Lankans like shit. That's before I get to explain how they treat their own, who are forced to serve in Ukraine. Tell me, how have the Russians ever been endearing?

I've seen plenty of British tourists treat their hosts like shit. And behave like twats in their own country. I've seen many American tourists act like they own the place when on holiday. That doesn't mean all Americans are twats. Far from it. I've encountered some arrogant Germans here and there, but always felt welcomed when visiting Germany.
There are many Russians who do not support Putin and his aggression, but are powerless to force any change.

And back to your original post : I know plenty of Russians who are anything but "disgusting", and who have absolute respect for human life.
