nick, put down the Krokodil, you’re hallucinating===

Look like you have a good knowledge with hallucinate staff)).. I’m not.

Putin isn’t going to use any nukes, cuz the moment he would try that, Russia would be flattened ... with the World’s approval==

Then the “world” will be flattened in return. Also consider whose population density is higher. This one will suffer more casualties. Hundreds of millions.

I think you either simply don’t understand the situation or you are plain crazy. Russia has enough nukes to flatten back whoever will attack her.

We could have conquered and occupied Russia during the dissolution of the Soviet Union with a plan to keep it indefinitely, but we don’t behave that way.===

You are under some delusion sir. HOW you can occupy the 250 mils nation (USSR) with 10000 strategic nukes?

And you tell it after clear fiasco with Iraq and Afghanistan. You have indeed lost your mind.

The difference between now and WWII is that in WWII the US was on russian side against the nazis. The US provided an enormous never ending supply of weapons and supplies just like its doing now for ukraine. only this time the germans and the rest of Europe and Japan and the aussies are also against Russia.

This is not a good look for putin. its not great for the west either. the biggest winner here is china.

“Good morning. Day 4 of the blackout. Day 276 of the war. We are in Kyiv. Warm. Our “generator on the balcony” project yesterday did not really work out. The generator was loud and working but the heater in our bedroom would not bring temperature up beyond a couple of degrees”

“Good morning. Day 3 of Kyiv Blackout. I woke up cold. The heating and electricity are off, again. Water is there. But it might not last. Another attack or just too much pressure on the system. So, yesterday, after the water came back, we filled every bottle and bucket”

That is the fear that Russia actually learns from their terrible performance, but it will take quite a transformation from their existing methods. They don’t have an educated NCO tier in the military. It’s basically Brains (officers) and bodies (enlisted/conscription). Which is doomed to failure until they change that methodology.

I don’t hardly bothering at all with reading your or your cohorts posted articles because 1) you and your cohorts don’t read those who post counter articles, evidences, etc. and 2) cause virtually all the so-called articles you post are utter rubbish that better belongs reserved as toilet paper.

your graph shows the Euro regaining back, since the September low, almost half its loss

so, things are looking up!

btw the “propaganda” you refer to is numbers from Russia’s *own official agencies* ... let that sink in

The fact that ruble is not convertible in London and NYC means nothing because the Russians do not buy anything there.
It is perfectly convertible in China, Turkey, Gulf Kingdoms and India.
