Big Oil (XOM, CVX, Shell, BP, and Total) will move into Ukraine.
Pipelines that already run from Ukraine to EU will pump Ukrainian oil and gas instead of russian oil and gas.
Russian energy will never return to EU.
Armored vehicles are getting clobbered in this war.
Notice the skull & crossbones plus the 3 russian flags?
Live like a mercenary, die like a mercenary.
I prefer the term vaporized.
Without a body to identify, RU will claim no one died.
Keeping them away from the front lines so they aren’t destroyed. Second army of the world.

Gerasimov wants haircuts and shaved facial hair.
Hopefully he is spending alot of time on this.
“In response to statements from two former generals that soldiers need to shave, Prigozhin calls them “clowns” and says that convicts fight better than guards units. He says he agrees with Kadyrov and says it should be illegal to glamorize the army.”

“NGO: Most convicts recruited by Wagner killed, wounded or deserted.
Of the 50,000 convicts recruited by Wagner Group from the Russian prison system, only 10,000 remain in the ranks of the military, according to Olga Romanova, head of Russia Behind Bars, an NGO.”

UP close and personal shot. The Ukrainian looks like 50 feet away.

“Estonia is considering introducing a zone in the Gulf of Finland, up to 24 nautical miles from the coast, where inspections of any passing ships will be carried out. The official reason is the control of the regime of compliance with sanctions against the Russian Federation.”
“This doesnt mean Russian ships are completely blocked yet. For a full blockade of the Gulf, Finland has to introduce the zone similar to what Estonia is considering.”

Wearing out their barrels making them useless for much else until the barrels are replaced.
If they do, the Russian Northern fleet is trapped, else homeless. A major blow.
If the tank's target has counter-battery radar close by, I am confident it would track a tank round as easily as an artillery round. Agree or disagree?
Who trained you to post to yourself as a way to generate fake interest in your propaganda?

Your high heel boy Z is having another tough day as uke lines around bakmut may be collapsing!
Ukes evacuated the Kaleeshka area and a town that sounds like Nabisco was captured toward Chssiv Yar where the last remaining supply road exists (and the ukes most likely escape route is closing in). Rus are advancing toward Siversk and captured kosnapolifka.Ukes stretched thin so reinforcing the Zaporiza line will be difficult.
battle lines update below from weeb and mil summary

Just do not know.
Moscow or St. Petersburg?
Territorial sea, as defined by the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, is a belt of coastal waters extending at most 12 nautical miles.
The Contiguous zone is a band of water extending farther from the outer edge of the territorial sea to up to 24 nautical miles (44.4 km; 27.6 mi) from the baseline, within which a state can exert limited control for the purpose of preventing or punishing “infringement of its customs, fiscal, immigration or sanitary laws and regulations within its territory or territorial sea”.
So, Estonia is establishing a “Contiguous zone”. To be effective, Finland must do the same.
