Yeah , they also had the capability for production, but probably every significant device involved there was catalogued.Presumably the Russians also had inventory of every warhead and installation related to nuclear weapons in Ukraine, making it extra hard for them to hide anything, even excluding the possibility of leaks.
I think it may have to be someone like Bortnikov, who was coincidentally appointed by Medvedev when he was President.You mean against Putin? Would be interesting if it'd be Medvedev.
What’s this supposed to mean in today’s context and why is the US Embassy in Ukraine tweeting this?Tweet

I think it is in response to Putin's claim that Ukraine has never been a proper country and has no history (I am paraphrasing). It is to show Putin was talking rubbish.What’s this supposed to mean in today’s context and why is the US Embassy in Ukraine tweeting this?
It’s kinda ironic that the US embassy posts this thoughI think it is in response to Putin's claim that Ukraine has never been a proper country and has no history (I am paraphrasing). It is to show Putin was talking rubbish.
Exactly what I was about to sayIt’s kinda ironic that the US embassy posts this though
To be fair, they are not claiming that England/UK is not a real country.It’s kinda ironic that the US embassy posts this though

Doesn’t Putin essentially only have few interests officially? Everything is held by bagmen who front his interests.I think they forgot him.
Damn you cia and fbi too *shakes fist*CNN sending troops again to Ukraine? The US should stop being the aggressor.
Kiev and Kievan Rus is hundreds of years older than Moscow , Putin made it seem that Russia Is why Ukraine exists when there is an argument to make that its the other way around.What’s this supposed to mean in today’s context and why is the US Embassy in Ukraine tweeting this?
Do what exactly? Because if it is about invading Ukraine, he is already doing it at this very moment.To be fair, I don’t think Putin is crazy enough to do that, it’s called ”mind game”.
He doesn’t stupid enough to destroy his country and people(especially in term of economics).
This is huge if true. Rumours of an agreement with Japan, Singapore and Taiwan also being involved. Also for semiconductors.Tweet

He is stupid and cruel enough to do it. US will impose very tough sanctions and this monster will not care much. He is a psychologically unstable loon.To be fair, I don’t think Putin is crazy enough to do that, it’s called ”mind game”.
He doesn’t stupid enough to destroy his country and people(especially in term of economics).
I do wonder if his actual wealth will ever be found out.Doesn’t Putin essentially only have few interests officially? Everything is held by bagmen who front his interests.
The west simply cannot afford to have that mentality. They have to assume that he is willing to go all the way with this, and base their response on the absolute worst case scenario.To be fair, I don’t think Putin is crazy enough to do that, it’s called ”mind game”.

It will remain indeterminable, in the sense that it does not matter whether he has $1 or $1,000,000,000,000 in the bank.I do wonder if his actual wealth will ever be found out.
Forgive my ignorance but what would this practically mean?This is huge if true. Rumours of an agreement with Japan, Singapore and Taiwan also being involved. Also for semiconductors.
Putin is crazy enough to do anything. Even push the big red button on nukes.To be fair, I don’t think Putin is crazy enough to do that, it’s called ”mind game”.

Absolutely. And so far it does seem that Putin is ready to go all the way. Not many took him seriously even he was mobilizing more than 100k soldiers close to Ukranian borders. His idiotic speech yesterday, remarks made by people from his circle clearly show that these vandals are full of hatred and cruelty. Had the west acted more severely during Georgia and Crimea events, the world would never be this close to a war in Europe. Now it is a bloody reality.The west simply cannot afford to have that mentality. They have to assume that he is willing to go all the way with this, and base their response on the absolute worst case scenario.

Even weirder, the right tends to be pro-Russia even in ex-Warsaw Pact countries.The Dutch alt right is quite strongly in Russia's corner in this whole thing. Seeing as the alt right is a bit of a global cult, is it the same in other countries and if so, why? I just don't see the logic behind some of their beliefs.
My theory is that these people reject progressive values and fear that the EU will influence them to become more progressive. And they see Russia as the last bulwark of traditionalism and conservatism.Even weirder, the right tends to be pro-Russia even in ex-Warsaw Pact countries.
Could they have possibly chosen a more evil pic of PutinTweet
