Listen balsero, your bias is getting best of you. Outcomes in life are never binary. You should know that , a big brain analyst. Same thing goes for every other member of the forum on opposite side.

Bro, clean up your quoting game its polluting the thread.

Seething so hard you lost the ability to speak proper English.

The Kremlin-tards never fail to provide some gold standard comedy.

Yo special-ed case, he told everyone to clean up their quotes and stop posting text walls made out of them

He said nothing about content

And I agree with him, cut that reposting bullshittery

Russia goes to Iran haha, yes and also to China and India. His back is covered. You find it hard to accept the new rules of a multipolar world.
The future of the West is quite dark between economic and social collapse.  Europe a dead continent (a youth that does not even reproduce as a biological function) without natural resources at the most necessary moment (when the rest of the powers have them). I would be worried about what awaits them in the next 20 years when these changes are more profound. And I won't even tell you if the dollar is abandoned by China (which will be the final blow to US hegemony). You are going to collect papers like the Germans in the Weimar Republic.
The good news is that you will be able to continue celebrating your day of pride with the colored flag.

The interesting thing is that Russia is selling more oil than before the war. Who buys it? India to resell it at a higher price to Western idiots and China to strengthen its competitive position against the United States. It is very simple. But the idiot forgot an important factor: food. And I assure you (for living in a country that produces food) that these will not go down in price for a long time.

I am really interested in how local experts in geopolitics and macroeconomics simultaneously manage to combine in their heads ideas about the successful isolation of Russia from the world economy and at the same time about the need for Western investment. Guys, either Russia is isolated or deprived of investment - these two dishes do not lie on the same table. In any of these cases, Russia can continue to issue money by issuing money - the Russian economy is experiencing an acute shortage of money supply. So acute that we can double the amount of money supply with zero inflation.

Irregardless of Russia's future or the war, it is clear that the Western world is not in great shape. National psyche plays a significant role in the outcome of trying times, something that is often disregarded. In general there seems to be a positive attitude amongst the Russian public about the future, even with the understanding that they'll be "roughing it" in some senses. In the West there is a growing disenfranchised public, many who are one minor mishap away from bankruptcy. Another aspect that should be taken into account is the endless self-purging that modern globohomo governments have subjected themselves to in all sectors of management; financial, academic, bureaucratic, even defense. The dogmatic pursuit of sacrificing all who are considered against the "system" on the pyres of progress, with an ever-shifting and totally arbitrary moral rule-set can only lead to a delusional catharsis, potentially ending in a messy suicide. Not to mention this process of flagellation is literally removing the most capable individuals and would-be leaders and replacing them with, for lack of a better term, degenerates. Contextualizing the Western world, particularly the US with history, there are more than a few indicators that their model of empire is running on borrowed time. How this all stacks up in a "East" vs. "West" I don't really know, but it seems to me that your viewpoint is reactionary to the point of handing Russia's enemies the W without factoring in elements beyond the economic.

I might add that the likeliness of shills existing on a backwater site like this is probably nought. Trolls, idiots and bad faith actors, yes, but shills nah

(LOL) and thought that their wet dreams of regime change in Russia were within reach.    It is now clear that if Kiev and its
puppeteers were to take the negotiations seriously, then they would have retained all their territory without the LDNR.   That
would have been a small "sacrifice" for them.   Now these losers are going to get next to nothing.   Russia will take real estate
corresponding to Novorossiya and Lavrov has basically stated this in the last day.   That is, any hypothetical negotiations are
going to start from the facts on the ground.
Also, all the wankers who think that NATzO weapons are slowing down the special military operation need to stop living on
delusional fantasies.   The progress of the operation in the LDNR was always going to slow down in the fortified military district
built up by Kiev since 2015 in part of the LDNR it managed to secure in the Minsk Appeasement.  
The pace is going to pick up as this district is neutralized.

Not even that.
The Minsk Agreements were all about retaining the territorial integrity of the Ukrainian state, yet granting the LDNR special and constitutionally granted status. It was the federalization of Ukraine, as simple as that. What is even more interesting, is that corresponded to some internal currents that flew inside Ukraine well before 2014, and used to be fueled from western Ukraine more than from the East.
Russkies were so determined to retain the integrity status, that pushed for several Normandy Format meetings in 2015-2020, the last attempt used to be a fan song of stepping down Angela Merkel.
Russia is a FEDERATION. Germany is one either. Switzerland is one. Lots of prosperous countries in Europe have this political status, and run great - this is one of the smartest ways to secure the statehood of territory populated by different nations/religions/languages.
But no! Not good enough for Ukraine, because it was not about Ukraine from the beginning. Ukraine is just a tool that was created by the Anglosaxons and sharpened for the whole period for one purpose only. This purpose was to inflict maximum damage to the RF, using a proxy zombie state, that needed to be brought to the edge of humanity for this purpose. It is not the first case when Anglosaxons used a nationalistic ideology to meddle in continental Europe.

From the wider perspective, the actual status is much better for RF, as - first of all - Crimea is connected with mainland Russia with land roads and railway, plus the water supply is finally secured. Only those two factors will increase the economic value of the peninsula by a factor, and improve the living conditions of the population accordingly.

As soon as Odessa will be taken, the issue of Transdnistria will be resolved once and for good.

All that combined will bring Russia 15 mln new citizens at once, and resolve several important problems existing for years or decades.

Both US missile bases will be in the range of Russian tactical weapons, with the time needed to turn them into nice holes in the ground in a few minutes.

And all that because Putin is an idiot, and the US deep state is run by superheroes and superbrains only, remember that!

Europe, pretending that they are not there.
Just the same way as US-based importers are crazy hungry for fertilizers and buying them like crazy.
Belarussian fertilizers were sanctioned for years, yet widely imported by, let's say, Columbia ...

Oh no!, shock horror, the special operation is doomed!

Russian Defence Ministry report on the progress of the special military operation in Ukraine (June 24, 2022)

Part 1 (read Part 2)

Successful offensive of Russian units towards Lugansk within 5 days has resulted in the liberation of Loskutovka, Podlesnoye, Mirnaya Dolina, Shchebkaryer, Vrubovka, Nyrkovo, Nikiolayevka, Novoivanovka, Ustinovka and Ray-Aleksandrovka.

Group of Ukrainian units has been completely isolated near Gorskoye and Zolotoye.

This pocket has encircled 4 battalions: 3rd Mechanised Battalion of 24th Mechanised Brigade, 15th Mountain Assault Battalion of 128th Mountain Assault Brigade, 42nd Mechanised Infantry Battalion of 57th Mechanised Infantry Brigade, 70th Battalion of 101st Territorial Defence Brigade, as well as an artillery group of 57th Mechanised Infantry Brigade, a group of Nazis from Right Sector organisation and a detachment of foreign mercenaries.

In total, the Gorskoye pocket has isolated up to 2,000 people: about 1,800 servicemen, 120 Nazis from Right Sector, up to 80 foreign mercenaries, as well as over 40 armoured combat vehicles and about 80 guns and mortars.

41 servicemen abandoned their resistance and surrendered voluntarily just over the past 24 hours.

According to the prisoners, the encircled Ukrainian units are exhausted. The units are currently manned by less than 40%. Higher Ukrainian command has lost control over these units. Armament, munitions, fuel and other logistic supply is completely stopped.

Russian troops are straitening the Gorskoye encirclement by launching uninterrupted attacks at the enemy. Half of Zolotoye had been taken under control over yesterday.

The enemy suffers considerable losses in other directions, too.

High-precision attacks of Russian Aerospace Forces at three bases of foreign mercenaries in Nikolayev, Golitsyno (Nikolayev region) and Oleshki (Kharkov region) have resulted in the elimination of more than 200 'soldiers of fortune' and up to 100 Ukrainian nationalists.

Desertion and refusals to be involved in operations are becoming widespread in the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). Over 30 Ukrainian servicemen from one of the battalions of 25th Airborne Brigade have abandoned their positions and personal weapons near Aleksandropol (Donetsk People's Republic).

To replenish the losses in manpower, Ukrainian command are forced to form separate rifle battalions formed by untrained, mobilised citizens in each regions towards Donetsk and Lugansk.

Western "investment" has been a creaming racket. It is a liberast 5th column talking point to endlessly call for more of and insinuate that Russia
cannot do without it. If Russia needs a Macdonald's substitute then it can invite some Indian or Chinese chain franchise. But as we see, it can
replace it with domestic investment.

Russia is not isolated. Not letting western parasites in does not stop Russia from engaging with the rest of the world.

A su-57 can be used against any enemy which makes it a valuable weapon.

S-500 is designed for intercepting ICBM so only useful in a nuclear war so totally useless because missiles will fly everywhere. Pantsir and tors are more useful than s-500.

Germany makes major announcement on #NATO

Chancellor #Scholz has promised to make the Bundeswehr the “biggest conventional army” among European NATO member states

...................................

This should give butterflies in the stomach in some populations of European countries.... but not in Russians who are well prepared.....

I don't know why Sholtz hates Russia so much. I think it's disproportionate for a leader whose country depends so much on its resources.... sometimes I have the perception that he is jealous of the fact that Russia will bring Ukraine back. The same goes for Poland, which certainly dreams of Western Ukraine every day.

Who sanctioned who?  Who stole whose national reserves?  Who blocked who from Swift?  Who announced an oil embargo? Who is banning whose sportsmen & women?  Who is stealing the assets of whose oligarchs? Who openly gloated about expecting to crush whose economy, destroy the value of their currency, cause hyperinflation and openly anticipated regime change?

Writing mindless nonsense like this, you could get a job with the UK Foreign Office, or be a henchman for Ursula van der Crazy.  

Sholtz is making a political move with desperate promises because of tge pression of NATO so that he can discuss with Putin in the future.

If does nothing and discuss directly with Putin he is dead.

A country like Russia has to be prepared for nuclear war.... that's a fact. The S 500 is a defensive tool that can intercept ICBMs at high altitudes. It is not a useless weapon. Obviously not an appropriate weapon for a localized conflict like the Ukrainian one.

I think it's more than that.... Sholtz has a hate speech. Just compare it with Macron's speeches, which are sometimes protocol, almost forced......

Russian & allied forces number about 200K

Ukraine has an army of more than 250K with about 400K Reserves

Russia has not mobilised, Ukraine has mobilised several times. Russia is outnumbered 3 to 1 by an army pumped with NATO weapons & is still winning....

......................



Firepower is not just measured by numbers of soldiers... Isreal defeated Arab army with inferior numbers of soldiers. But I am very curious about how many Russian troops are currently in combat in the Donbass region..

The S-500 is not just a ICBM interceptor missile. It can intercept all hypersonic ballistic type missiles as well as spacecraft and satellites (in low orbit?). That outer space tin can troop transporter will be a sitting duck for this type of missile. The S-500 is probably intended as a AWACS killer as well and it will also be able to use missiles for the S400 system. Then there is also the S-550 with similar capabilities. It is unclear at this stage but it seems to be a longer ranged version of the S-500?
