Nothing surprising here. Putin can’t shutdown his wartime economy without crashing the state, and himself. Expect more and more of these ridiculous headlines and moving of goalposts.

So… the grade school bully (with a reputation for lying) is promising he’ll only stop punching your friend IF you close your eyes and put your hands behind your back. Hmm.

Russia has no one to blame but Putin, for NATO getting so close to their borders.

And because of what is happening in Ukraine the Baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia) won’t want to lose their NATO membership. So it’s just again an empty demand.

The blyat is emboldened by what his pet is doing in the USA.

More NATO troops and weapons in the Baltica it is. Got it !

How would that even work? Would Estonia have to station its own (NATO) forces in Finland?

Would Lithuania and Latvia have to do basic training in Poland?

It’s obviously not serious.

So Russia, and Russia alone, wants to continue the war. Not exactly new information but gotcha. I guess Putin has like 3-4 years to go until Democrats win pretty much everything in USA and the west is then back to normalcy.

But hey, I guess the bright side is that he might die extremely painfully before even that.

In the meanwhile, I think the west should be putting significant resources into instigating a revolution in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Communist, liberal, centrist, conservatist, I don’t care. Just split up that shit. And this time when Russian state breaks up, don’t let them keep their earlier status in UN and give them a similar deal regarding nuclear weapons as Ukraine was given.

F*** off from Crimea and the other occupied territories in Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia, also leave Belarus and we might think about it.

Yeah and I won’t stop eating this delicious chocolate until my cat starts speaking German. See, we can all make insane demands to keep doing something.

It’s your father who should have pulled out.
