Russia - Ukraine

[haraldo]

There is only one person to blame and that is Vladimir Putin and only Russia is attacking Ukraine.

Russia and Belarus is attacking Ukraine, there is an act of war coming out of Belarus.... so Lukashenko is the same responsible, IMHO (But Lukashenko is just a puppet following Putler)

 

[haraldo]

Yeah if I came off that way I apologize. I just told him I would reply to his question. So I did as best as I could.

Honestly? I'm just as scared and feeling like I'm in over my head as a lot of people are right now.

But the Ukraine people and there courage is showing me what I need to do with that fear.

It is insane to look at the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, he is making videos on the streets of Kyiv showing that Ukrainians all fight together, showing nothing than an incredible courage.... There is a video of previous president Petro Poroshenko on the streets of Kyiv with weapon in hand and a lot of his friends with machine guns.

The support of Zelenskyy has gone from something like 70% to 100% throught the last 3 days

They show nothing but determination that there is no way Russia will take Ukraine. The last days events I think it is pretty clear that there is no way Ukrainians will accept anything else than the Ukranian elected government.

I 100% agree. Putin doesn't realize that he inadvertently made him a worldwide hero and a martyr

Those people are tough courageous motherf#$ckers

Interesting interview

Guerrilla warfare is always very hard to fight- it won the Revolution for the colonies and it has been used well in almost every war, other than the ones where the rules of engagement were "Stand there, in lines, and die for your country".

FRANKFURT — The West has tied the hands of Russia's central bank, rendering it powerless to prevent a catastrophic run on the ruble and the banking system when markets open Monday.

Two days after President Vladimir Putin launched his invasion Ukraine, the EU, the U.S., the U.K. and Canada all imposedsweeping restrictions on the Russian central bank that effectively prevent it from deploying its $630 billion in international reserves to mitigate the impact of other Western sanctions.

"This is a kind of financial nuclear bomb that is falling on Russia," said Sergei Aleksashenko, a former deputy prime minister and deputy central bank governor, in a video blog.

"The war came and the money ran out — the money ran out sooner than the war ended," said Aleksashenko.

I have a pending article to read from today stating:

What Putler care most about ishs own money, so by putting his assets into straightjackets he will be personally locked down, I just wish the Swiss banks would do the same freeze although I doubt they will. There has been no mentioning of Swiss banks so far!

You don´t need 150+ in IQ to understand that Putler has lots of assets in Swiss banks, so would be nice if UBS and Credit Suisse follow suit

 

[haraldo]

This is way cool: The Russian occupiers are ready to lay down their arms and surrender in Chernihiv region.
This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Im hoping Ukraine can beat Russia so they can be the indepedent state they are born to be for their sake.

 

[haraldo]

I am very disappointed by Norwegian government.... Ukrainians need weapons to fight the enemy and we send helmets and bulletproof wests Kongsberg Defence is making some of the most efficient anti tank missiles there is but we decide it´s more useful to send helmets

More background into this mess. I'm still on the side of the Ukranians for their autonamy but the more I read into this, the more f?cked up this is getting.

I think Lukashenko made a Faustian deal with Putin and now he's paying the price - not that I have any sympathy for him and his autocratic regime.

I stand corrected.

Now might be the time to remove Russia from United Nations group.

Yeah that's a really good article. I'm on the side for Ukranians as well. They didn't ask to pay the consequences for this but there are 2 sides to every story for sure as posters have spoken about throughout this entire thread. Hopefully once this calms down a big hopefully we can negotiate and give Russia some concessions. You can't just back them in a corner and give them nothing to lose. They'll be twice as dangerous as they are now

Ukrainian company Reface is urgently developing an algorithm for recognizing military forces.

It is based on satellite imagery and will be able to detect the location of russian troops in real time.

The team asks for help from the people of Ukraine and asks to provide certain data and disseminate information.

Wow. Just wow. Real time. Easier to trap them.
I think I heard correctly not very long ago today that a Russian special force was wiped out, leader killed. Chechnya was mentioned so I am not sure
if a Chechnian was leading the force and was killed with his troops or He killed the leader and is fighting with Uranian soldiers.

EU will extend new sanctions against Belarus.

I sure hope there is an uprising there any day now. Disrupt the war effort for sure.
That would be something.

Is that a possibility, able to be done? Even though they are one of the 5 something or other.
