Russian election candidate calls Ukraine war 'big mistake' by Putin

A politician bidding to run against Vladimir Putin in Russia's upcoming presidential election described the decision to go to war in Ukraine as a "big mistake" in comments to the wives of soldiers on Thursday.

Boris Nadezhdin, representing a centre-right party called Civic Initiative that has no seats in parliament, is seeking to gather the necessary 100,000 signatures from people across Russia to enable him to stand against Putin.

Nadezhdin has promised to present a plan for ending the conflict. Last week he also aimed sharp criticism at the authorities over heating outages that have struck parts of Russia in the depths of an exceptionally cold winter.

"Cities are freezing. Who is guilty?" he asked in a Telegram post. "The huge amounts of money that have been spent and planned for the special military operation could have been invested in improving the quality of life of my fellow citizens."

Journalists that report this aren’t being thrown in prison like in Ukraine.

One of these days Boris Nedzhdin will find himself accelerating at 9.8m/s^2 … then coming to an abrupt hard stop.

If you're so obsessed with the upcoming election in Russia, immigrate there and lead the charge against Putin.

Not surprisingly, we know nothing about who you're supporting in this country's elections. My guess is that you're sacrifice one of your testicles if it meant Nikki Haley ended up being the GOP nominee.

Is Icky Nikki your dream candidate?

I’m going to report you for making sense. In addition to that, your not stuck in the 1980’s mentally, you actually understand that Russia is no longer a communist country. To the horror of the world, Russia is more free market and private ownership minded than the communistic leaning USA. This actually sucks, badly as a US citizen. Oh ya I’ll catch hell for posting this on FR. The literate ones will weep with me over Obama’s/CIA’s actual insurrection.
Be blessed brother, he’ll is coming to breakfast, we will again have freedom. Not just yet.

Spouting off against Putin. Good luck with that.

Dusty Old Dust
Song by Woody Guthrie (a Communist Party USA Member)

… We talked of the end of the world, and then
We’d sing a song an’ then sing it again
We’d sit for an hour an’ not say a word
And then these words would be heard

… So long, it’s been good to know yuh
So long, it’s been good to know yuh
So long, it’s been good to know yuh
This dusty old dust is a-gettin’ my home
And I’ve got to be driftin’ along

“Putin welcomes constructive criticism. He calls it his open window policy.”

Good to know. Here in the US, our government simply JAILS its opponents, for YEARS, and without a trial.
