But in their minds Russia’s blockade of Ukraine is not?

As it stands, RIA has as much influence over Russian policy as Tucker Carlson has over the US’, but it would seem prudent to keep a close watch over the Sukwali Gap in the coming days and brace ourselves. An attack on Lithuania would trigger Nato’s Article 5.

They can give Kaliningrad back to Germany and the problem is solved lol. I mean...if they want to have Ukraine's territory back they shouldn't complain so much about Kaliningrad...

Its not countries but parties representing those countries. Most are far-right or far-left groups who are either Russia supporters or anti-EU. Only the 2 Irish votes will likely fall outside of that group and their statements come across as appeasement.

That article is from March 2022, but I guess it be the same people in general anyway.

On a side note funny how there are anti-EU parties that get to vote in a European Parliament lol

More like the best launch that Russia has made so far.

The fuck...? They literally fired on themselves.

Not that I'm complaining, but how do you manage that?



I thought that sort of thing only happened in cartoons.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Just read about that Il-76 transport aircraft. Seems like this happens to like one every year at least in the last decade even without anyone shooting it down. It's more like an adventure to sit in it and less of "the safest way of transportation"



Wile E. Coyote couldn't have launched that rocket better

Just to say, I don't think they'll win by the end of the year, it's a bit optimistic, I'm more curious about what is happening in August.

Stalker 2 gets a surprise launch announced at Gamescom. Russian troops lay down their arms and go home to play it.
