Yeah , they also had the capability for production, but probably every significant device involved there was catalogued.
Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion
- Thread starter Wednesday at Stoke
- Start date
Putin needs to realise he can't just steal peoples homes, and land, and kill people without any punishment from the UN/EU/Nato.
He's not Israel.
He's not Israel.
I think it may have to be someone like Bortnikov, who was coincidentally appointed by Medvedev when he was President.
What’s this supposed to mean in today’s context and why is the US Embassy in Ukraine tweeting this?
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.
It’s kinda ironic that the US embassy posts this though
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
I think they forgot him.
CNN sending troops again to Ukraine? The US should stop being the aggressor.
Doesn’t Putin essentially only have few interests officially? Everything is held by bagmen who front his interests.
Damn you cia and fbi too *shakes fist*
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).

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.
Do what exactly? Because if it is about invading Ukraine, he is already doing it at this very moment.
This is huge if true. Rumours of an agreement with Japan, Singapore and Taiwan also being involved. Also for semiconductors.
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.
I do wonder if his actual wealth will ever be found out.
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.
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.
Forgive my ignorance but what would this practically mean?
Putin is crazy enough to do anything. Even push the big red button on nukes.
Why do you think he was conducting missile tests recently? It's to show Ukraine that he has a big red button that works, and to show NATO that he has defences in place against their big red button.
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.

Even weirder, the right tends to be pro-Russia even in ex-Warsaw Pact countries.
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.
Interesting language. Will he claim he's doing a preventive strike of his own?
Thank you - very helpful.
No problem!
