“We must reclaim many more historic lands, restore historical equity... Finland, the Baltic States, everything's ours. Let's take Alaska too”.
These are phrases thrown around by propagandist polemicists, but which we should nevertheless pay attention to.
Russia 1 is considered the official voice of the Kremlin and its master.
For her part, a few weeks ago Maria Zakharova, the Russian Foreign Ministry's Director and Spokeswoman for Information and Press, didn't hesitate to comment on the provocative statements made by Russia 1's propagandists:
“So you haven't played Risk? People at Russia 1 certainly have, and they're keeping up the good humor in the eternal game of world domination. The extension of Russia to the former Soviet borders is an ongoing project.
Before concluding with a scathing and threatening: “Stay tuned, stay tuned.”

The biggest supporters of the Ukraine war and the most aggressive supporters of NATO intervention in Ukraine and WEF globalism have been the Baltic States.
They have shown their hand
When NATO loses in Ukraine, the Baltics will be next.
Are you saying that like it's a good thing?
Russia hasn’t been able to take Ukraine in 3 almost three years. The U.S. was involved in WWII for 3 years and 8 months. Russia has demonstrated that they are a paper tiger.
I don’t blame them. They gave the satellite states a measure of autonomy and the west was on them like a duck on a beetle with notions of “democracy”. Maybe you ought to do more putting yourself in other peoples’ position.
If you listen to what people say, they will tell you who they are.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham disputed Russian criticism of his support for Ukraine on Sunday, saying he had simply praised the spirit of Ukrainians in resisting a Russian invasion with assistance provided by Washington.
Graham, shown in a video clip of his meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in Kyiv on Friday, acknowledged his host’s praise for military assistance valued at $38 billion since the outset of the conflict in February 2022.
He described the help as “the best money we’ve ever spent”.
That they, and you, think of them as “satellite states” who were graciously granted “a measure of autonomy” demonstrates what the problem is. Russian objections to NATO expansion were not because they felt threatened by it, but because it protects those nations from Russian threats. Moscow needs to learn that the age of empires is over.
Non-Russian speakers have a really hard time understanding certain context like when a person is being facetious or sarcastic/humorous. You absolutely cannot just read a transcript and understand the meaning in many cases, otherwise you end up with international news headlines like “Putin endorses Kamala Harris!”
It’s hysterical how Russia goes from unable to do anything militarily to being able to take over the world depending on the propaganda need of the moment.
Before you do that, you've got to get the Ukes out of Kursk. And that could be a formidable task, now that you're having to raid night clubs to recruit soldiers.
The Russians are importing North Koreans to fight for them. That’s not a good sign of Russian power. The comment about humor tells me this is bluster for negotiations. “We’re going to take back Alaska unless you sue for peace!”
They should’ve taken Ukraine by now. Trump will sort this out.
Notice how they talk about taking back Alaska.
kinda like the way the US thinks of Canada and Mexico as satellite states and routinely interfere in both of their internal affairs.
The US..being the aggressor here would need to learn that lesson first.
Kinda of interesting where you don’t see the spread of the dogma of democracy by force as the behavior fitting the description of an empire.
Worthless thread so far though.
Could we give them southern California? There are good people in northern California.
