Are you referring to Wagner PMC? - Wagner does not exist. Putin has said this repeatedly. There is no Wagner, right? https://www.politico.eu/article/putin-give-account-post-mutiny-prigozhin-meeting-pmc-wagner-not-exist/ Or, maybe Putin is a pathologically dishonest tyrant, whose regime must fall. No negotiations. Not one inch of Ukraine goes to Russia. If Russia collapses, so much the better for the world. |
What, has it been too long since Iraq and Libya? Are your regime-changing muscles itching again? |
Lol the Soviets shoot down a Korean Air passenger plane in 1983 and the media is like, murder!! Horror! Disgrace! Then the Americans shoot down the Iranian plane five years later and the media is like, um, military technology is sooooo complex. Tragic mistake. |

Putin shouldn’t have invaded and he should have gotten over it in general but giving the Crimea away and then letting Ukraine take Donbas (the whole 1991 independence affair in the middle of a remote forest and in secrecy) is what has led to this.
The idiots should not have made potentially divisive moves. It’s like giving kids unequal inheritance and then being surprised about the animosity that ensues. |
The 2014 coup was basically getting rid of the trustee in your analogy. Makes things extra contentious. |
Putin lies about everything. And yes, he must go. He has been the cause of great pain and suffering in many countries. |
Everything was settled in 1991. The record shows that people, including Donbas and Crimea, voted with a huge majority to join Ukraine. Everything since then has been manipulations by Putin's regime, to try and make Ukraine a puppet/vassal state via political and propagandist means, and failing that, to divide and conquer Ukraine by force. |
I guess someone hasn’t learned yet that regime changes don’t work, never did. Also, everybody lies. |
Lol that’s like saying Israel’s borders have been settled when the country was created. |
Lol maybe he should bring a glass vial of something to the UN and shake it about a la Colin “good boy” Powell. |
But but but #bothsides Piss off, Russian troll. |

Meanwhile the corrupt leaders of Ukraine continue to steal our generosity and getting rich at the US taxpayers expense. Most recently, one Odessa military commander, Yevgeny Borisov, was found to have spent nearly 4 million euros over the past year on a luxury mansion on the Spanish coast, 200k on a luxury car and bought his wife a chain of shops on Costa del Sol.
Where is the accountability? |
Wagner didn't send mercenaries into Donbas in 2014 out of the goodness of their hearts. Not to mention, all of the FSB operatives and everything else... |
Lol angry girl, regime changes STILL do not work. |
DP. I'm not an angry girl, but I hope I can play too? Regime changes, generally, do not work. If the West was somehow involved (aside from providing weapons for Ukrainians to defend themselves), it would be a waste of time. But that's not what this is. Andrey Bezrukov: "what we are dealing with is a typical Makhnovshchina (peasant movement)" "It is a phenomenon of a weak government. A phenomenon of sedition. It is a phenomenon in the absence of a truly strong state authority." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeoKxjBUAks Whatever perceived injustices that Russians in Donbass or Crimea claim, pales in comparison to the evil done since Stalin through Chernobyl, compounded by the war crimes committed in the past year. That's what is fueling this. But that's not the big news. "The nation posted a current-account surplus of $5.4 billion for the April-June quarter, which marks a 93% plunge from a record $76.7 billion in the same period last year, Bank of Russia data shows. That's also the smallest excess since the third quarter of 2020." https://finance.yahoo.com/news/russias-economy-dealt-crushing-blow-000937531.html These are official Russian figures. Believe they're accurate? I don't. The claim that "India, all of Latam and Africa are happy to do business with Russia. So is Israel" doesn't carry weight. Africa. Central African Republic (CAR), Libya, Mali, and Sudan? Where Wagner was active? And now Wagner is no more? India. "Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov broke silence on reports claiming that his country had halted trade with India in Rupees. Lavrov explained that discussions on the issue are underway and that double conversion charge was the roadblock that traders are experiencing. Earlier, the Modi Govt had rejected reports that Russia had suspended trade with India over Rupee payment" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8FWCBm4zbE Lavrov: "We accumulated billions of Rupee's in accounts in the Indian banks, and we need to use this money but, for this, these Rupees must be transferred into another currency." Reuters Report: "With a high trade gap in favour of Russia, Moscow believes it will end up with an annual Reupee surplus of over $40 billion if such a mechanism is worked out." "Russia is not comfortable holding Rupees and wants to be paid in Chinese yuan or other currencies." Latin America. I think you meant China's allies (temporarily conveniently re-everaged by Russia)? https://theglobalamericans.org/2023/07/russias-latin-american-policy-and-the-june-2023-rebellion/ Israel. Did you mean Netanyahu, or Israel? Netanyahu, I believe, since Russia helped get him elected, correct? Overall, things seem to be unravelling in Russia. The (arguably) most combat-seasoned, combat-effective Russian fighting unit is now disarmed. Igor Girkin (Strelkov) warning of army mutiny due to Major General Ivan Popov's message to a former general and MP in Putin’s party. General Sergei Surovikin, deputy commander of Russian forces in Ukraine, is rumored "on vacation" at the luxurious FSB Lefortovo Detention Center. Lieutenant General Oleg Tsokov, deputy commander of the Southern Military District, is the 10th Russian general killed. Mariupol is even screening teenagers for 'loyalty to Ukraine' while Russian counterintelligence raids the local residents' houses to check documents and phones. The Russians may even lose Bakhmut soon? https://www.yahoo.com/news/video-captures-disarming-wagner-aftermath-193721027.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/russian-general-outburst-earthquake-vladimir-103604574.html https://english.nv.ua/nation/russians-screening-teenagers-in-mariupol-for-loyalty-to-ukraine-50334362.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/bodies-russian-soldiers-taken-destroyed-064700843.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/ukraine-claims-bakhmut-under-fire-085736443.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/war-criminal-girkin-warns-army-140900186.html https://t.me/strelkovii/6021 https://www.thedailybeast.com/russian-state-media-unravels-in-aftermath-of-yevgeny-prigozhins-mutiny?via=rss&source=articles_fancylink https://www.yahoo.com/news/resting-fired-believed-dead-russia-152638292.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/russias-state-duma-comments-disappearance-121616257.html https://finance.yahoo.com/news/russias-economy-spiraling-state-car-004205022.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/wagner-adjacent-general-surovikin-under-172700311.html Solovyov can't keep his mouth shut either? He attacks his listeners for asking questions, yet doesn't even realize he's criticizing the military as well. He can't even control his anger flashes at [9:45 / 11:09]. Watch his fist [10:22 / 11:09]. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kiyte931WCk "I'm very bitter about what's happening now. Everything is huffing and puffing all around. I'm very bitter that all of this was made public when it should have been dealt with internally." [7:40 / 11:09] All of this is not the result of some grand western conspiracy. This is all-Russian. It's not a 'regime change.' The Russian Government is losing control (like their own television network). "4.. 3.. 2.. 1.. 0.. The hour of reckoning has come." https://metro.co.uk/2023/07/14/russia-ukraine-war-latest-tv-hacked-19128143/ Наслаждайтесь Лебединым озером, товарищ? |
