Russia is going to take Ukraine unless an internal force stops them or causes them to recalibrate their policy. Their goal isn’t to level everything they encounter - you wouldn’t do that to territory you are about to annex. Russia views success by bringing Ukraine back into their umbrella and keeping western influence at bay for a while longer. This has to happen now while the west, particularly the US, is perceived to be flat footed and weak.

so russia saying they are not trying to take kiev anymore is suddenly taking all of ukraine?

some of you are weeks behind or are just hearing wtf you want to hear.

Sounds like some optimism coming out of Turkey. But dependent on Russia withdrawal to 2/23 positions and a referendum in Ukraine?

I guess most of them just missed any news of the Russian MoD announcement that they're drastically shifting gears on their objectives in this war...ER, "special military operation".

They did that because even they know they'll never take Kiev.

The Russian govt “legalizes” “parallel imports”: the sale of goods without the permission of copyright holders. The list will include intellectual property like movies, music, software, and “inventions.” Russia goes from int’l pariah to PIRATE

Apparently this happened a few years back and went into effect on Jan 1 2021

quote:


In accordance with the new bill, from 1 January 2021 the Russian government will have the right to temporarily permit the import of certain categories of goods for a maximum of five years. Currently, it is not known which categories of goods will fall within the scope of the regime of temporary parallel imports.

However, the bill already provides for four situations in which the Russian government will be able to allow temporary parallel imports:

if goods are not available on the Russian market;
if imported goods are available on the market, but their quantity is insufficient;
if the quality of goods available in Russia differs from that of similar goods sold abroad; or
if imported goods are sold in Russia at inflated prices.

It helps if you can actually spell his name correctly. Which tells me all I need to know about how much you actually know of what's going on, and why.

I’m pretty sure Putin is the one who “fricked around” and is “finding out” at this point

Russia announced today that they have backed away from the demand that gas shipments be paid for in roubles. Reuters The weakness of the Russian position in the world economy is on full display here.

I thought this was funny so I went and looked at the PT thread and he gets downvoted at around the same clip in that one too.
