I'm honestly not sure if Bryansk was special operation done by Ukraine or a false flag done by Russia
Russia needs a full mobilization and this would be probably work as an excuse. On the other hand, this is damaging, embarrassing and won't help their sanction situation. Either way neither of these scenarios look good for Russia //

Any bets that Ukraine wont acknowledge or deny being at Bryansk on said date, leaving Russian diplomats the painful task of acknowledging the successful special military operation on russian soil?
It seems more and more unlikely the pincer operation to engulf the Ukrainian army on the donbas will be anything but putin's wet dream anytime soon, unless they can get tank fuel from some magical source lol |

Macron is what he is - an abject centrist. No one on the left will find much to love in his platform. OTOH he’s basically run the country competently and believes in internationalism. Le Pen, OTOH, literally bankrolled her party with Putler’s money. She’s an avowed loyalist and apologist for Russia. I’m guessing you probably would have said “nothing to be happy about” if Clinton had won the electoral college as well as the popular vote in 2016. How’d those four years of Trump work out?

So you know nothing about how he is ruining our education system, and our social welfare. Education have gotten so bad, one of my school friends who was teacher have resigned when he realized he could anger the wrong persons and the gov will do nothing to protect him.
Macron's failures are the main reasons I turned monarchist. Yes, i'd prefer to put Louis XX of Bourbon on the throne instead.

Vladimir Putin Has to Appear Victorious 14 days from Today. Can He?:
The simple answer is no, but the article states the possibility of putin implementing a country wide draft on may 9, which must be one of the dumbest things he can do. He can't train this conscripts, he can't give them adequate equipment, he will be simple sending them to the meat grinder. Russians have been "supportive" of the invasion because it is in their better interest not to speak against it. But if they (or their sons) are being sent to the frontlines, voicing their dissent might be in their best interest. |

Russian TV Says Zelensky Must Be 'Wiped Off the Face of the Earth':
Too late, if they manage to kill Zelensky they will make him a martyr (and someone else will continue his work). Everyday Zelensky stays alive is a reminder that russian assassins are not invincible, just bullies with a weapon. U.S. Vietnam War Insiders: Russia Is Making the Same Damn Fool Mistakes in Ukraine That We Did: The difference being that russia does not have deep pockets to fight for a decade. Meanwhile, a little inflation is a cheap price for the USA to pay to have putin's army implode in record time. ... as Kremlin claims NATO is fighting a proxy war: Yes they are, just like Vietnam was a proxy war where the URSS and china gave supplies while the USA kept failing to achieve any long lasting objectives. Karma is a bitch. |

Ukraine Situation Report: Swiss Veto Threatens Delivery of German Anti-Aircraft Vehicles:
Oh, come on, can't they just make the ammunition with modern machinery? It was bound to happen sooner or later, there is no such thing as perpetual ammunition. Russia Stops Gas Flow to Poland and Bulgaria, Deepening Economic Conflict With Europe: Right out of putin's Bully 101 playbook. ATM he is only making Viktor Orban look like a traitor to the EU. Belarus announces joint air defense training with Russia amid flurry of strikes in southern Ukraine Russia ATM can't defend their own airspace from Ukranian strikes, what does lukashenko plant to learn from russia? "Duck and Cover"? p.s. Transnistria is just a sliver of land between Moldova and Ukraine. But it's becoming a focus of war.: I am thinking there might be another intention behind the fake flags attacks, since there is no chance atm they can help on an attack on Odessa. Maybe they intend to justify a military coup'de etat in Moldova, then Ukraine might need to divert troops to the border with Moldova, at least that is the only plausible logic I can think of.

Ukrainian Battle Buggies Are Out To Kill Russian Tanks:
Now we only need missile equipped farm tractors, to instill absolute fear on the hearts of the russian army!  putin's Rasputin Urges Russia to Arm Cuba in Echo of Kennedy Missile Crisis: The thing is, atm and in the foreseeable future, russia does not have enough conventional weapons for themselves and nuclear weapons in s a full can of worms he might not want to open, because he will have to eat it afterwards. Small Quadcopters Rule The Battlefield In Ukraine I am surprised no anti-drone weapons have been announced in this cat-and-mouse scenario. Ukrainian Babies Issued Russian Birth Certificates as War Drags on .. with Russia's dropping birth rates it should be no surprise they want Ukranian babies as their own. putin will announce mass mobilisation of Russians on May 9 It is official now, this war will last for years. putin is a lousy gambler, he has lost this war and now is going to put russia's future as a collateral to keep betting. |

BTW, a quick comment, don't be fooled by the usd to ruble exchange rate you see in the internet. If you go to a russian banks, they wont sell you dollars, they will only buy. Of course, you can buy dollars at the black market. I have already have experienced said situation decades ago, where dollars were restricted to a few per person per month and the price varied whether you were a company (close to the government) or average joe. spolier, this never ends well.
In layman terms, the ruble is no longer a currency the fluctuates in the market, but as times goes by stories will appear of exorbitant prices of foreign currency in the russian black market, since with a 2% inflation per week, there is no way the ruble as a currency wont suffer. |
