they should be, and it seems there are activist actually looking into what you just said, bout kicking the Russian Federation out of the UN and the Security council and getting rid of they're veto power....it seems that when the USSR fell, they forgot to re-register with the new name, there is an article here i put up about it
i would go with security council and they're veto power.......
They should all be put in detention until they shape up. They don't need to be expelled but they shouldn't have a vote on anything. I know things don't work that way. It's much more complicated than just expelling them but the UN needs a mechanism to be able to rapidly strip a country of veto power like Russia has. It makes no sense to even hold a vote against Russia if they can just veto the damn thing.
When the British surrendered at Yorktown the British played "The world turned upside down" and the world has turned upside down, with liberal patriots as hawks and republicans as Putin apologists and allies...
Oh they have fucktonnes of AK47 etc... they had a period of massive industrial scale manufacturing... they just don;t have the kind of weapons I would try to threaten a modern army with...
I think most of those AKs ended up in Africa and other places, even Russian army ones were sold on the black market for decades. There are plenty of DPR troops with bolt action ww 2 weapons. No military equipment in the old USSR was made obsolete, it was stored or given to reserves. Much of Russia's modern military equipment was sold off by corrupt officers for decades and the Russian army was the biggest gas station in the country for stolen fuel, same for the air force. They sold weapons systems abroad and they stole the spare parts and sold them. The air force was most vulnerable to this shit, which is why they aren't around on the battlefield much. Same for the navy really, the higher tech involved, the more that can be stolen and sold.
The Mosin-Nagant is an Imperial Russian design predating the Great War.
Precisely for that reason. Don’t dignify a crook with a gun.
Now as someone that has actually been at the pointy end of a Gun where they are not so politely requesting my valuables I can say that dignifying them is the least you can do.
For Russia in Ukraine, how Vlad reacts to it and the consequences inside Russia are the questions. It's gonna get worse for everybody before it gets better, and this winter might be a cold one for Europe.
That was the hidden line in the decree, that they want one million men while they have been saying 300,000. Wonder if that lie is big enough for many to question their leader?
