And just how many times did US ‘diplomats’ visit the country since the beginning of the year, especially in the past couple weeks???
Since it is the GW asking I
I’ll sleep well tonight knowing it is not WW3
Good for Lithuania.
They remember being under the Soviet Union.
Ah geeze. At face value this sounds like a very stupid move influenced by very bad people.
How long are they allowed to function without consequences?
Hard headed euros are going to drag the rest of the world into their silly beefs.
The former Soviet Republics and Warsaw Pact countries are taking Putin at his word. They are not going back under Russia's heel.
It’s not a ban, it’s a special economic operation.
Kalingrad is a sea port.
Kaliningrad is a port, this isn’t a siege.
Russia took a calculated risk. It’s leaders decided to go
to war over an issue that they trumped up far beyond reality.
Not the Ukraine, Lithuania, or Estonia had their sights set
on hurting Russia.
No nukes or top level weapons existed in Estonia, Lithuania,
or the Ukraine. Russia was under no threat.
So low and behold Russia talked about biolabs, NAZIs, and
NATO membership.
Estonia and Lithuania have been members of NATO since
2004. They haven’t made any attempt whatsoever to endanger
Saint Petersberg. No one has. Not Finland, Sweden, or
Poland have either.
Russia did nothing about those biolabs. It didn’t really
focus on the NAZIs. It didn’t take out the Ukraine’s
leadership to stop them from joining NATO.
So far, Russia is batting 0.000 on the issues that they
said mattered most to them.
They have lost 30-50,000 troops and an awful lot of
military infrastructure. There is talk about the field
losses of their military leadership.
I dismiss a lot of what I hear negative about Russia, but
it’s my understanding that the things I mentioned above
are pretty much accepted as the reality for Russia right
now.
Lithuania is now shutting down passageway. Russia shut off
natural gas. These things happen in war time. Perhaps
next time Russia will think of these types of situations
before it goes on the next witch hunt.
Hope the AZOV gas preserves were worth all the death,
destruction, and disruption of the former Soviet Union
land that now makes up the Ukraine.
So there is no war in Ukraine in per the TGP - war is different from a "special military operation." Typical of the never-ending nonsense of this publication.
“Staggering stupidity”
Staggeringly stupid is the hoaxer idiot Larry Johnson.
Lithuania claims it is simply abiding by the sanctions imposed by the European Union. Russia claims it is simply started a "hot" war by rocket-bombing Ukrainian cities and murdering civilians.
After all, Lithuania is a member of the European Union and NATO Russia has nuclear weapons and can do whatever it wants.
But that is the point. This is a deliberate provocation war of conquest launched by Russia.
It is laying economic siege to a vital interest of Russia attacking, invading, murdering civilians, and conquering territory of a peaceful neighboring country.
While there is no immediate danger to the Russian population of Kaliningrad, this is a flash point that could lead to an actual war as opposed to a special military operation This is war.
Article referring to the Russian invasion of Ukraine as "not an actual war," but rather only a "special military operation" was obviously written by Russian propagandists.
Regards,
1. Lithuania HAD to have cleared this with NATO/U.S. prior to doing this.
2. Russia is almost certain to respond to this. Forcefully.
3. This could very easily/predictably result in war between NATO/U.S. and Russia.
4. NATO/U.S. knew this.
5. Since the European members of NATO are hopelessly weak, a logical conclusion is that whoever pulls Biden’s strings is trying to provoke outright war with Russia.
6. Lots of possible reasons, none of them good. Some of them very, very bad.
This article is neoconbtrash.
By this logic, Japan was justified in bombing Pearl Harbor, and the U.S. was the bad guy.
It's one thing to publish obvious propaganda for educational purposes / to dismember it, piece by piece - but I wish that you'd be clearer about your actual motives; otherwise, one might (falsely) believe that you actually support this egregious pro-Putin screed!
Thanks and regards,
