    @Mihuel

    Russia has everything to be a paradise on earth, very well-educated people, resources, land. My question is, why is Russia not a paradise on earth?

    Specially for you I pinned the answer:

    It explains why certain capitalist states are as they are and can't be different. Of course, if they don't want to be totally worthless colony who can't decide anything by itself like your country now.

    And as you very much liked capitalism, you need to eat that it comes with - wars.

    Interesting fact, Germany to be Germany you know robbered Ukraine citizens of gas energy and got it for themselfs after 2014. You can open statistics and check.

    To add some more - our elites almost always had been West oriented, I mean here that they robbed workers and loved to Live in Paris, London :-) Usually Russia retaliates as West do some stupid thing to punish elites who love them and who provided them with lot of almost free stuff. But it is never enough for some guys :-)

Why do people have to die when Russia wants to be "great"? Why can't Russia be Germany and Japan today only trying to be Germany and Japan in 1939? Vitaly?

    @robertGL

    You just have not best understanding of Russia history and economy. Especially history of 1917-1930 years and 1990-2000.

    Issue of the West is that it measures all with money, and now even with money they print without doing useful products and services.

    Of course it won't be nice. But Russia has astonishing potential of high educated people and huge resources that it sent to Western allies for cheap.

    We don't know now where it is all going, but China and Pakistan backed things up. India also not joined US. EU in return can be in extreme pain - this will be main consequence, making life in EU miserable for average citizen.

    And especially issue with fertilizers is serious for EU.

    I don't get this invasion. Has Putin become unhinged? I was under the impression that he did not have much desire for the Donbass region and this seems like an extreme reaction to whatever cross-border conflagrations that have occurred there over the past 8 years. Europe is squirming and has already balked at full sanctions but I doubt they want this headache, and Russian relations with the rest of the world will take years to mend

    The US will work with allied countries to use strategic oil reserves to lower prices and secure supplies, US President Joe Biden said on Thursday.

    Issue is always with one small thing. They have little reserves and it is capitalists, so they do only things that are profitable.

    Britain, as part of a package of sanctions due to Russia's military operation in Ukraine, will impose a £50,000 ($66,800) limit on the amount of money that Russians can keep in their bank accounts, the UK Foreign Office said.

    "The new restrictions will cut off wealthy Russians' access to British banks, including by setting a limit of £50,000 on bank accounts," the statement said.

    Idiots.

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Note how Biden wants to continue misery of Ukraine people. As US ruling class is much more hungry.

    As usual this guys will seize money of people.

    Four people familiar with deliberations told the news channel that US intelligence and military cyber warriors are proposing the use of American cyber weapons “on a scale never before contemplated”.

    Among the options are disrupting internet connectivity across Russia, shutting off electric power, and tampering with railroad switches to hamper Russia’s ability to re-supply its forces, three of the sources said.

    You could do everything from slow the trains down to have them fall off the tracks.

    Are they from the mad house?

    It is just pure materialism. You can't be leader is your manufacturing sucks and your main power is huge propaganda machine and military personnel.

    Russia has resources, China has manufacturing. US has... well, Facebook and Apple, and later one is just advanced reseller of Chinese products.

    The US started the new cold war on China 6 years ago, with increasing levels and scales of sanctions & initiatives against a country whose main crime is its fast-rising GDP. The US, UK and some other West countries have successfully forced China into a corner and in the brace of Putin. The war in Ukraine seems to be one of the sweet fruits (or poison pills, depending on your view) of US policies, initiatives (e.g. "China initiative) and actions.

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    The crisis is a “serious threat to the rules-based international order, with ramifications well beyond Europe”, the G7 leaders said, adding that Putin has “put himself on the wrong side of history”.

    Non of this guy are materialists. And this is that idealism leads to, idiots start to believe in rules.

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Analysts also degraded extremely.

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying declined to call Russia's military operation in Ukraine an "invasion." During the briefing, she did not give a direct answer to the question of one of the journalists whether Beijing considers Russia's actions in Ukraine an "invasion."

    Hua Chunying said that the current situation in Ukraine was due to "many factors", including historical ones. Hua Chunying noted that China's position on this issue differs from the views of the US leadership.

    Russia is able to cope with the situation in Ukraine on its own and does not need military support from China. "Russia is a great power with power. It does not need the support of China or other countries," she said, answering a question from a Western journalist whether Beijing is providing military support to Moscow against the backdrop of the situation in Ukraine.

    Invasion is expected today.

    I also see unprecedented level of attacks in logs, so cyberwarfare will be also huge.

    @AndrewReid_EOSHD

    Andrew, I like you, but you need to spend time on the subject before making conclusions.

    The corruption starts at Putin and extends endlessly throughout the world.

    We have superb post especially for guys who write things like this -

    EU!?

    "Russian elites sell stuff for $100 and get goods back only for $30-50 (US has exactly opposite scheme). Where is all the rest money? They just never left the buyers accounts."

    In Moldova this is exactly the situation...even a single oligarch caused an entire banking crisis in 2014, for doing exactly as you wrote earlier.

    The corruption starts at Putin and extends endlessly throughout the world.

    Get him out.

    @AndrewReid_EOSHD

    It's what the people want. They want to have the economic standards of Germany, not Moldova.

    I told you to at least spend 5 minutes looking at real statistics?

    Btw, Moldova also wanted to live like in Germany, but EU companies totally destroyed their economy and turned life into misery.

    So, your response is total facepalm :-)

  • AndrewReid_EOSHDAndrewReid_EOSHD

    Of course Ukraine is being absorbed by NATO and the EU. It's what the people want. They want to have the economic standards of Germany, not Moldova.

    At same time, with the economic side you have to balance history and culture, way of life. This is what our Western politicians don't appreciate. They want to force democracy, globalism and liberalism on all ways of live, not just in monetary terms.

    What was special for me about Berlin is that it had a perfect balance for a few short years between the value things of the Soviet culture and the value of a Western democracy. Now of course it is too far the other way, a fully global capitalist consumer nightmare.

    All of this war in Ukraine is there to prevent the previous collapse of the Soviet empire crossing a whole new line and further eroding Putin and modern Russia entirety along with the culture and all central beliefs too.

    Of course I understand his reasons and why he cannot let NATO and the EU start this process, beginning in Ukraine and ending in Moscow.

    At the same time, Putin has done jack shit for his people, let alone socialism and needs to go away.
