Russia orders all officials to fly home any relatives living abroad

Full title: Russia orders all officials to fly home any relatives living abroad, as tensions mount over the prospect of a global war

Russia is ordering all of its officials to fly home any relatives living abroad amid heightened tensions over the prospect of global war, it has been claimed.

Politicians and high-ranking figures are said to have received a warning from president Vladimir Putin to bring their loved-ones home to the 'Motherland', according to local media.

It comes after Putin cancelled a planned visit to France amid a furious row over Moscow's role in the Syrian conflict and just days after it emerged the Kremlin had moved nuclear-capable missiles near to the Polish border.

Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev has also warned that the world is at a 'dangerous point' due to rising tensions between Russia and the US.

Still lost. Exactly why are we supposed to be going to war with Russia? Or them with us?

I’d be willing to bet that Russia has credible intelligence that a certain halfrican is looking at a pre-election distrction from the democrat nominee’s scandals.

They should get the stuff out now. Too much information to get through in the time available. And if that little war thingy is true then get that information out as soon as possible so war can be averted.

I heard that Trump released his tax information paid 40 MILLION dollars in taxes that ONE year.

I can’t conceive of ever making nearly that kind of money in my entire lifetime.

Thanks for that.

It does need to get out there.

Why don’t you post it as its own thread? It needs to be seen.

I was no where near my knees on 9/11. No disrespect intended. Remember there are legions of ex-military citizens in our country. People causing trouble and engaging in open warfare against America will not last long. You boys in blue just give a holler if you need any help. We’ll be there for ya all.

If this is true, it may be that Russia wants conflict while we are weakened militarily and with a weak President. My Cold War fears never went away.

Sure looks like Obama and Hillary want war - over Syria.

And Obama keeping our warship near Yemen, getting fired at with cruise missiles.

Hold on to your hats and yes, keep looking up.

The article is very sensationalist. The order to bring relative home is not about imminent war. It is an attempt to enforce the policy that was in Russia for several years that meant to insulate Russian officials from getting influenced by sanctions, by making sure that they don’t have assets (and relatives) in the west that can be targeted by sanctions and (potentially) being manipulated by the foreign governments.

The ships are there to accuse Russian of attacking American ships. I think right before the election the military should take control until trump gets in

Russia lost 20 million. When I first saw that number I could not believe it. The numbers reported vary but they are all high. Some say 11 million soldiers and 20 million civilians; some say 20 million all together. The population of the U.S. was only 140 million at that time.

Many due solely to Stalin’s incompetence.

It would be stupid for us to attack Russia, and Obama is that stupid. But he won’t have to pay the price because he’ll be living off the kick back he got from Iran.

I noticed that too. It doesn’t read like a foreigner wrote it. Isn’t anonymous Chinese or Korean or something Asian?

Bill almost got us into WWIII with the Russkies in Kosovo.

This is Russia telling Hillary, there will be no Kosovos this time.
