Just in case anyone is confused about whether or not Russia constantly works to support the enemies of America:
I'm not trying to argue your main point because you are correct, but we have been funding and arming a country they have been at war with for almost 4 years now, of course they are going to try to frick with us on this with everything going on around Venezuela right now.

Over a decade ago, US oil companies and oilfield service companies were kicked out of Venezuela to give that business to Russia's Rossneft. Plus all of the military aide from Cuba which still is a Russian proxy.
This didn't start after Feb 2022.

There is a long history there of course.
But they are just now sending weapons and mercenaries. Its pretty clear that is in response to recent happenings re:Venezuela as a response to our Ukraine policy.

Russians forces making headway in Pokrovsk and allegedly are reaching the outskirts of Lyman. Haven't used this live map very much so we will see how accurate it is.

Trump Says Russia Missile Testing Not ‘Appropriate’
Putin on Sunday announced the successful final test of the Burevestnik missile, which he said has “unlimited range.”
by AFP | Oct. 27, 2025, 9:09 am
US President Donald Trump said Monday the announcement by his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin of a nuclear-powered cruise missile test was not “appropriate.”
“He ought to get the war [in Ukraine] ended. A war that should have taken one week is now soon in its fourth year. That’s what he ought to do instead of testing missiles,” Trump told journalists aboard Air Force One.
Putin on Sunday announced the successful final test of the Burevestnik missile, which he said has “unlimited range.”
Trump had promised to quickly end the Ukraine war upon his return to the White House in January, but talks between Moscow and Kyiv have stalled despite the US president’s mediation efforts.
Russia’s forces are slowly but steadily gaining ground in Ukraine, grinding through Kyiv’s defenses in costly battles.

Sending weapons to Venezuela is nothing new for Russia. Mercs might be new but they damned sure sent advisors at least a decade ago. Cuban troops sent during Chavez, so basically Russian

The last confirmed deliveries of any weapons were around 2014. Russia deployed some bombers over there in 2018, but that was their own deployment and not giving or selling any weapons

Russia has been against US interests throughout the war since WWII.

Yeah, its not like we have multiple ways of verifying things like this, such as informants, investigative reporting, and satellite imagery outside of just trusting them or something.

Oct. 24 - Trump does what Brussels couldn’t: Kill Russian oil in Europe.
US sanctions hit Lukoil's presence in Europe, sales of assets follow quickly -

US sanctions hit Lukoil's presence in Europe, sales of assets follow quickly -
quote:
Donald Trump’s surprise move to sanction Russia’s largest oil companies won’t paralyze Vladimir Putin’s war machine — but it will help the EU kick Russian oil out of the bloc for good.
quote:
Rosneft, which once owned refineries and controlled oil flows to Germany, has been largely dispossessed in Europe after Berlin took control of its local subsidiary in late 2022.
quote:
But it’s a different story with Lukoil. Russia’s largest private oil firm runs hundreds of gas stations across the EU, including around 200 in Belgium; operates giant refineries in Romania and Bulgaria; and retains a 45 percent share of a fuel processing plant in the Netherlands.
It also supplies oil to Hungary and Slovakia, which still rely on Moscow for between 86 and 100 percent of their imports. Exploiting a sanctions opt-out, the two countries have stubbornly resisted ditching Moscow — despite intense pressure from the EU.
So far, Brussels has repeatedly failed to target the company despite being linked to sanctions circumvention in the bloc.
If enforced, it “would lead to the stopping of imports,” acknowledged one Slovak official, also granted anonymity to speak frankly, saying the government will “most likely” seek an exemption from Washington. Hungary’s foreign ministry didn’t respond to a request for comment.
In fact, the impacts of the measures are already starting to be seen. Finnish energy firm Neste on Thursday suspended fuel deliveries to Lukoil subsidiary Teboil after the U.S. and U.K. sanctions against the firm.
Romania’s state secretary for energy, Cristian Bu?oi, told POLITICO that Lukoil will now have “an obligation” to sell its south-central Petrotel refinery before next month’s deadline. “We would be happy not to have Lukoil anymore,” he added.
The Dutch government, too, now sees a quick sale of Lukoil’s stake in its southwestern Zeeland refinery as “the most likely scenario,” according to a person familiar with the matter.
Bulgaria’s eastern Neftochim refinery will also “have to stop operation on Nov. 21” unless it is sold, added Martin Vladimirov, a senior energy analyst at the Sofia-based Center for the Study of Democracy think tank. The Bulgarian energy ministry declined to comment.
“They’ll have to be sold,” echoed the former Lukoil executive.
For the company, it will be “catastrophic,” the person added.

Both sides have lost a number of aircraft taking out drones. The debris of the hunted ends up killing the hunter.

Very interesting CNN article on the new sanctions against Lukoil and Rosneft. The TLDR is that the impact looks significant right now, but that may only be temporary while Indian in Chinese firms look for workarounds. Also this:

Seems like Russia has made significant advances (compared to how good their advances usually go) over the last week or so. In the South they are moving into Prymorske. In the East they are slowly taking Pokrovsk and have reached the outskirts of Lyman. A lot of pockets are forming in multiple places on the front where Ukrainian troops could be trapped. Ukraine might need to cede these areas in order to pull back and form another strong defensive line.
