Russia / Ukraine thread

So Surovikin is dismissed and Prigozhn gets shot down while flying in a private commercial jet from Moscow to Saint Petersburg in short order.

That's making a name for yourself quickly Afzalov.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Orange man won't debate (we're not telling you why). Russia is bad, Orange man bad.
 
What's the conspiracy theory about el gran naranja not debating? :homer:
Orange man bad. Refuses to debate or commit to supporting GOP candidate if not selected.

Typical leftest media bullshit. Refuses to say the Trump interview with Tucker is on in the same time slot. Just that he won't attend to the debates. :laughing:
 
Twitter lights up:
Yevgeny Prigozhin jet shot down over Tver by surface to air. Prigozin is reportedly on the jet.
Anyone with any knowledge of Putin had to see this coming... SAM or poison or.... He was not long for the world.

As for if he was actually on the plane or not will be up for debate for years...

I kinda wonder how he lasted this long? Dirt on Putin? Maybe if it was good enough he got the opportunity to retire to a villa in the Caribbean somewhere.

Right? I imagine running an eastern European mercenary army kind of takes any prospect of a retirement off the table :laughing:

Or maybe Putin wants a rogue "headless" mercenary group now turned terrorist group to go mess with Nato with no connection to Putin.

I don't blame Trump for not being on that debate. The way the media and Faux news treated him in both previous debates I can understand why.
But I also think it was stupid to do his thing at the same time. In fact I think the smart move would have been to attempt to do a twitter spaces “debate” with non liked established candidates from both sides. Let the people ask unscripted questions.
 
If the weapons NK is sending are anything like the NK AK kits that have come in recently, I’d be telling them thanks, but no thanks. :laughing:
 

GOP Governor Says US Green Lit Putin’s Invasion​

North Dakota Governor and potential GOP presidential candidate Doug Burgum told Newsmax last week that the United States gave Russian President Vladimir Putin permission to invade Ukraine in part because it allowed all of Western Europe to become reliant on Russian energy.
Burgum explained that energy is something we ought to be selling to our allies and friends rather than having to import from our foes.
The Biden administration is entirely off base on the economy, energy, and national security, all of which are interconnected, but winning the Cold War requires economic strength, deterrence, and innovation.

He said that cyberwarfare with China has broken out. We aren’t having nearly enough conversations on the generational and border effects of this.
According to a report, Russia is pulling in more money from oil sales, with supply cuts by critical producers driving up benchmark prices.
According to data from the International Energy Agency, Russia raised over $17 billion from its crude exports last month, up nearly $2 billion from July. The IEA added that higher prices offset the potential impact of Russia’s total output falling by around 150,000 barrels a day.
According to various think tanks, Western nations put a $60-per-barrel ceiling on Russian petroleum in December 2022, but Russia has been successful at avoiding such restrictions.
Reports show supply curbs by OPEC+ leaders have spurred the rise.
According to a current poll of commodities dealers and experts, Saudi Arabia cut its production by a million barrels per day in July. The limitations are anticipated to remain through the end of October.
In August, Russia’s deputy prime minister stated that they will continue to pump less oil, aiming to decrease exports by 300,000 barrels per day.
Rising oil earnings are expected to provide Russia with an economic boost as Russia continues its war in Ukraine.

I'm pretty sure there was that one guy that told europe their energy dependence on russia was a problem, and all the media and the like said he was crazy and ignored it.
