Extreme video from Ukrainian helicopter attempting to rescue crew of downed helicopter:
Last time I checked, Russia only invaded Ukraine AFTER the west interfered with Ukraine's elections(2014) and AFTER Ukraine did not implent the Minks accords they agreed to(2015), not BEFORE. Not to mention, NATO's continued expansion eastward.
Might want to get your timelines correct.
Good try though.
At some point someone is going to have to sail a Navy in and end the blockade to end the famine.
Interesting thing is India is first up to starve. India moved quick to support Russia in this, and India is getting that cheap blood oil from Russia. Blood oil does not feed anyone though. Not feeling like we should put our people in harms way for India just yet.
The famine will not stop at India though, and eventually someone is going to have to do something.
Leeea India is not going to starve.. they have the most or 2nd most arable land in the world.

As long as their water canals are working and filled with water, they'll be fine.
In fact they export so much wheat and rice and other grain so they're not at risk!
NATO was not a party to the agreement why do you keep spreading bullshit - oh yea because you are bullshit.NATO/Ukraine never intended any kind of peace agreement, and continued shelling the Donbass for 8 more years. The whole agreement was to stop the shelling. It was just a stalling tactic to get more arms/training into Ukraine to one day fight Russia. This was confirmed by the former president of Ukraine, and now Angela Merkel.
Last time I checked war is the opposite of peace.
A better question would be have you read it? Sounds like you need to skim thru the basics.
Pathetic.Things might be getting more desperate in Russia then we realized:
I don't know, but I have my doubts whether that's genuine.Things might be getting more desperate in Russia then we realized:

I agree that he will need protection for the rest of his life but I would be very surprised if Russia tried to assassinate him in the US capital.Even with American protection and safety guarantees that takes balls. Russians still want this guy and his family dead, they'll be needing protection for the rest of their lives.
They might suck at modern battlefield tactics and combined arms, but they're still plenty skilled at bombings and assassinations.
I hope he receives a hero's welcome, very much looking forward to him getting the recognition and respect despots like Putin crave. Twist the knife Z!

First, I’m not really sure killing him would do much at this point. If you kill him the first night he’s the not very popular president who died. Today he would be a martyr.
Second, that sort of brazen attack on our soil would likely damage the right wing effort to reduce aid to Ukraine.
Doesn’t seem like a good idea overall.
Not sure this is a good move on his part. If he come across as ungrateful or demanding he's going to lose support. I imagine his speech writer is working double time.
well see there is your problem, you suck at "checking".
like your point doesn't even actually make sense, the west meddled in Ukraine , so now the people who know Russia best fight tooth and nail because why ?
Russia both a shit country:
... and a country incapable of dealing with shit properly.![]()
Indoor Plumbing Still a Pipe Dream for 20% of Russian Households, Reports Say - The Moscow Times
More than one-fifth of Russian households do not have access to indoor plumbing, according to official statistics obtained by the RBC news website on Tuesday.www.themoscowtimes.com
The bullshit levels here are over 9000.
That’s a completely wilful misrepresentation of what Merkel said. She never said Ukraine had no intention of implementing it, she said the agreement was to buy time for Ukraine to get stronger. Implementing it would have benefited Ukraine in that regard. Poroshenko said nothing different. Only dimwits like you think… wait, you’re not thinking but just regurgitating Russian state media… regurgitate this nonsense even when it makes no internal sense at all.
Russia also clearly had no intention of implementing it. You want us to believe that we can’t come to that conclusion unless the ex-KGB dictator admits it publicly. That’s moronic.
If you want to argue that Budapest was violated by your imaginary nonsense Putin should have repudiated it. But hey, you still probably accept his nonsense assertion of this being a “special military operation.”
You offer nothing but bullshit assertions about this supposed coup nearly a decade ago, turns out there’s been another election and Ukrainians seem pretty happy with their government.
As for your NATO doing everything they can to war with Russia, give me a break. NATO has had reasonable pretexts and better opportunities to go to war with Russia in the past and they never have. They don’t want to, and even if they did nuclear deterrence works. If the real goal was a NATO/Russia war the best thing Putin could do is keep his military inside his own borders because he’s squandered an awful lot of it on accomplishing very little in Ukraine. Could you imagine how badly Russia would get stomped in a conventional war? You’d be crying for weeks. Ukraine being in NATO, friendly to NATO, friendly to Russia, it doesn’t change the math in a NATO/Russia conflict.
Because the intent was to get NATO to use Ukrainian troops to fight Russia. Why do you think they ignored the Minks accords and kept pumping Ukraine with weapons for 8 straight years? That's why this whole notion of Ukraine joining NATO is laughable.
Why exactly would NATO accept Ukraine into NATO when NATO can just use Ukrainian troops to fight it's biggest adversary?
Keep that NATO dream alive though.

He's coming to the US, not Moscow, so not sure why you think he is after your tax dollars. Your tax dollars could be saved the second your government decides to return to their borders.Nothing more than an attempt to shake down Congress for more of our tax dollars.
Still better than India, where homes with cell phones outnumber homes with indoor toilets. (~47% of Indian homes have indoor toilets and ~64% have cell phones.) That's really crappy.

India census: Half of homes have phones but no toilets
Nearly half of India's 1.2 billion people have no toilet at home - fewer than have mobile phones - according to the latest census data.www.bbc.com
He's a few cuts above your imagined politician. He has talent and imagination. I can't imagine he leans on speech writers. He'll be fine. He's addressed joint session of congress before... virtually, and effectively. This time in person, so much the better. And it probably will be better. First time out of Ukraine since the beginning of the war. This will be historic. This will be in the history books.Not sure this is a good move on his part. If he come across as ungrateful or demanding he's going to lose support. I imagine his speech writer is working double time.
Probably the only good thing you said in that post, I won't dignify you by reading the rest. NATO is one of the greatest dreams ever, the alliance of alliances and it's worked for decades to keep Russia in check (the modern day holdover of shameless imperialism inherited from the previous millennium), which is exactly its intention. I hope for the day that Ukraine will join NATO, EU too!Keep that NATO dream alive though.
