He schooled media & nations on Ukraine conflict biases instead of avoiding questions. ravishingravi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have asked since Reuters only trusts "Sources" why doesnt they ask questions to "Sources" and "NOT" waste space in the hall as some other media org journalist could have used that time and space to report and ask question as to what Saudi Government is saying coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravishingravi Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 We are closest to nuclear strike since Cuban missile crisis. NATO and US have decided to pile on the pressure. Crimea bridge attacked. We are in for some fun times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishra Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) Looks like **** has hit the roof. After the bridge attack, Russia has gone back into strike mode, instead of defence. Cold winter is going to kill many if Russians decide to hit Ukrainian Infra. What the hell Zelensky wants? Doing wests boidding at cost opf Ukrainian lives. Time for him to go back to talking table. You can not militarily take back land they allready own and protect without getting hundreds of thousand dead in the winter Edited October 10, 2022 by mishra ravishingravi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US wont dump them since China will jump in & fill the security void. How many more energy producers do you plan to sanction anyways besides Venezuela, Iran & Russia ?

mishra Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 As I said, Its very easy for Russia to hit Energy infrastructure of Ukraine and that will lead to massive indirect casualities. Looks like till last week Ukraine was net energy exporter to EU. Now its importer or facing blackout. Since Europe is facing energy crunch, they will under no circumstance export energy to Ukraine. Earlier Zelensky gets it better it is for everyone. Getting "Aid" in terms of arms is different then getting Energy from Europe. Quote Top Ukrainian official said on Tuesday that his country for the “first time from the beginning of the war” experienced large-scale Russian attacks on infrastructure, according to the US news channel. He assessed that Europe suffered, too, by proxy, because Kiev had to suspend the export of electricity. Ukraine “helps European countries to save on Russian gas and coal” and wants to “reconnect quickly from the other sources,” Galushchenko stated. https://www.rt.com/russia/564525-ukraine-damage-infrastructure-cnn/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishra Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 As expected, Russians are now pulvererising Ukraine after officially annexing all 4 regions. Time for Zelensky to go on dialogue because, I am certain, that if Kiev keeps the same attitude, Russians will hit Enegy infrastructure of Ukraine just before winter sets in to show Ukraine, the true face of friend Zelensky's Europe when it comes to enrgy sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishra Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) ^ seriously, visit https://liveuamap.com You will see that whole of Ukraine border with Fussia has been bloodied. This propaganda that Russian are running out of ammunition and people can only last so long. Russian will make this longest winter for Europeans since WWII Edited October 17, 2022 by mishra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarke Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 The way Belarus is actively involved, NATO aligned border countries like Poland could have pounded it's infra too without attacking Russia. It's wise to not get involved in the neighbor's fight but be prepared for the consequences from those decisions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravishingravi Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Few key learnings I have from all this going and some large moves coming up. 1) Dollar strength is being challenged by commodity strength. 2) An alternate supply chain / eco system is being created to challenge the western order 3) EU is going down and most likely breaking up 4) Many countries will crash and burn within the next two years.
