Interesting!

Russia cries victim while berating the West, all while the ruling elite send their children to live and study there, buy property, and moor their mega-yachts off Monaco. Even Putin’s own family reportedly moves freely through Western capitals, recently spotted in a Parisian art gallery.

"Iraq appears to have shunned Chinese companies and opted for US oil majors to operate its giant West Qurna 2 field after russia’s Lukoil announced its intention to quit the reservoir" "analysts believe Baghdad’s move is politically-motivated with the aim of pleasing Washington"

There are a lot of stories like this that seem not to effect the overall narrative of the war for some odd reason. www.theconcis.com/p/novorossiy...

❗️Europe's position towards Russia has become tougher, Ukraine has stronger positions — Polish Prime Minister Tusk “You have stronger cards. I know, we’re not playing cards, as you once said. Sometimes. Definitely with us, you have stronger cards.”

real inflation expectations for russia in 2026 are at 25% year on year. Officially it will be 4%. 🙄

Bill Clinton: “This is our responsibility.” “We forced Ukraine to give up nuclear weapons, cruise missiles, and strategic bombers. We promised to protect Ukraine from Russia. We made Ukraine vulnerable. So yes — this is our war,” said Bill Clinton.👇

Never forget, Russia started the war unprovoked. Only because the billionaire dictator Putin wanted to expand his territories, steal Ukraine’s vast natural resources, and make himself wealthier. Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦

"When I hear that Ukraine is supposed to hold elections, I respond that Russia should also commit to holding free and fair elections, which they haven't had for 25 years. We need to shift the focus to where the real problem lies." - Kaja Kallas.

russia has been lying about Donbass and Luhansk since 2014.

That orange cunt should never have been put on a ballot. He belongs in prison. stitchsnitches.com/trump-caught...

1/ 💩🇮🇳 The replacement of "mobilized" Russians is in full swing: thousands of labor migrants from India have arrived in Russia 10,000 Indian citizens were brought to Moscow. They have already been accommodated in hostels and will soon be sent to work.

Gerasimov and Russian Military claims they hold Kupyansk and eliminated 19 Ukrainian battalions in a week. 19 battalions is 10 thousand soldiers. In the meantime Telegram on both Ukrainian and Russian side of War analytics shows videos of Ukrainians holding city Centre without opposition. LOL

'Own nothing and be happy'

Not sure if i wanted to dive into this topic, but i'll repost it anyway.

Probably a bit short on cash?

❗️The EU has approved a €90B loan for Ukraine for 2026-27, President of the European Council, António Costa announced. “Ukraine will repay the loan only when Russia pays reparations. We gathered and we delivered,” said Ursula von der Leyen. Belgium called it a victory for Ukraine and intl. law.

Self imposed crisis.

Merz: The financial package for Ukraine is in place: Ukraine will receive an interest-free loan of 90 billion Euros as I suggested. This sends a clear signal from Europe to Putin: This war will not be worth it. We will keep Russian assets frozen until Russia has compensated Ukraine.

😂

They probably took into consideration the Russian threats against politicians directly and the probability of a Fitch derating. Which both make 0 zero sense as a valid reason. Still, 90 billion is great news for Ukraine.

For a GOP president—after the Iraq War—to say outright that invading Venezuela is all about oil is wild. But it is. It’s also about corruption, power, graft, and land. And we should take him at his word. @msnowevents.bsky.social

russians hit a civilian car in Odessa and killed a mother who was driving with at least three children. russia's evil terrorism has no end to it and needs to be halted.

😂 And why is he yelling during his speech??

so that's where the food stamp money went...😐

😢

"Russian [dictator] Vladimir Putin, speaking at a Russian Defense Ministry meeting, said that his country’s military is prepared to occupy further Ukrainian territory if Ukraine and its Western allies 'refuse to [hand it over]." abcnews.go.com/Internationa...

If they can spend 35 billion usd on Pfizergate, then i'm sure they can figure this out to.

Russians in Kupyansk have been completely cut off from supplies. A small contingent of Russians -hidden in basements- is present in the center. It will take some time, but they will eventually give up, surrender or get killed. Just like the Kucheriv Yar pocket(s).

That's below break even. They're in trouble.

So lavrov is either dead or sidelined?

Lukoil asset sale needs green light from russia, but a pro russian agreement on Ukraine is needed first. Thats why he's in a hurry.

russia having to sell their foreign Lukoil assets is making Trump investors go wild. Just saying. Thing are correlated.

😂

Yesterday morning, russian border guards set foot on Estonian soil. Just another provocation one would think. But then, have a look at this map. the part where appeared has a big russian speaking population. So i wonder, are they planning another Donbass scenario?🤔

💔 Ukrainian toddlers have to learn how to eat in the dark because adult-sized toddlers in power are too afraid of a bunker grandpa.

My X friend Angelina Shalagina Moscow burns and suddenly Everyone asks about escalation. Ukraine burns And everyone asks about restraint. That contrast is the loudest sound in this war. x.com/angelshalagi...

"russia's federal budget deficit reached a record US$54 billion from January to November and is on course to exceed US$70 billion by the end of the year." "there is "a real possibility of making the cost of continuing the war unbearable for the kremlin"."
