Putin made a mistake invading Ukraine

[Sandisk]

Your analysis is ridiculous.

And where is your link to prove that his points are ridiculous?
Most of what he said was factually correct.

 

[Sandisk]

The war is bad for everyone, but Europe is not going to lift the sanctions on Russia because they know if they allow Putin to get away with this, no European country is safe.

Huh?
Russia cannot even conquer Ukraine.
How the Hell are they going to conquer real powers like Germany, France or Great Britain?
And if they did attack any NATO member - all the other members would come to their aid.

There is virtually NO chance that Russia invades a NATO country.

Hitler ended up committing suicide in a bunker.

Napoleon ended up poisoned to death in a British prison.

Hussein was hung.

Khaddafi was torn apart by a mob.

Putin will end in similar fashion.

Wrong.

There was no attempt to identify the corpse that was supposed to be Hitler, and it should not have been hard.
He has a variety of injuries and was a vegetarian, so it should have been easy for any forensic physician.
So likely Hitler's corpse was fake.

Napoleon's own physician found stomach cancer and said that was Napoleon's cause of death.
{...
The cause of Napoleon's death has been debated. His physician, François Carlo Antommarchi, led the autopsy, which found the cause of death to be stomach cancer. Antommarchi did not sign the official report.[241] Napoleon's father had died of stomach cancer, although this was apparently unknown at the time of the autopsy.[242] Antommarchi found evidence of a stomach ulcer; this was the most convenient explanation for the British, who wanted to avoid criticism over their care of Napoleon.[233]

Saddam was murdered after he had surrendered in order to avoid casualties, and had done nothing wrong.

Qaddafi was killed by ISIS and al Qadea agents from Benghazi who were supported illegally by the US.

Whether or not Putin is replaces, any Russian leader will ensure Zelensky never walks free after this.

Maybe in his own country? Because he is forcing people not to use the Dollar and only use the Ruble?

"Increased in value" my dick lol

https://www.archyde.com/ruble-hits-euro-against-euro-for-the-first-time-in-two-years-due-to-capital-restrictions-etc-reuters/

[Reuters on the 6th]–The Russian ruble on the 6th was the highest price in about two years against the euro. Against the dollar, it is heading towards 1 dollar = 66 rubles. The background is capital restrictions and sluggish foreign currency demand.
As of 0719 GMT (4:19 pm Japan time), the ruble is 69.57 rubles, up 0.8% against the euro. It rose to 69.125 rubles, the highest since February 2020.

Had a feeling this thread would bring out the Russian sock puppets

I predict Putin will be overthrown before the end of the year. He might even be killed.

What a disappointment that would be for American's con-servatives.

 

[AntonToo]

1) Russia's economy is better than ever

Why would you do that? Why would you come here and publicly shit yourself like that?

 

[Big Bend Texas]

I predict Putin will be overthrown before the end of the year. He might even be killed.

That would be a great outcome but, I would not count on it.

What would be nice is if this spurs a popular democratic revolution and Russia finally ends up rooting out the rest of the leftover corruption from the Soviet Era.

The Ruble does not need to be propped up

The central bank implemented an emergency hike of the key rate from 9.5% to 20% in February, days after the invasion of Ukraine, in a bid to support its plunging ruble currency.

The rate hike, the central bank said, “is designed to offset increased risk of ruble depreciation and inflation.”

Russia cuts key interest rate to 14%, says inflation could hit 23% this year

The Central Bank of Russia has cut its key interest rate to 14% from 17% as it looks to mitigate the impact of economic sanctions.

www.cnbc.com

So Russian central bank says you full of shit.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

Totally wrong.

1) Russia's economy is better than ever, because the main drain was Russians buying western goods, like McDonalds, which they no longer can do. Russia is sell as much oil as always, but to middlers like Turkey.

2) Conscripts always try to get out of fighting, is nothing new, and has insignificant effect.

3) The Ukraine is responsible for all the deaths, and Russia has minimized civilians deaths by avoiding urban centers. It is the fascist Azov Battalion who is murdering civilians, like the ethnic Russians they murdered after the Russians had already left Bucha.

4) The west is buying as much Russian oil as always. They just to not know it.

5) Even the Pope has admitted that it was NATO who was completely responsible for this war and ALL the deaths.

6) The Ukraine has not done well at all. What has done well is entirely the $10 billion worth of US missiles and drones.
The Biden is going to get the US attacked if he does not stop this illegal weapons shipments.

And this has NOTHING at all to do with Putin.
He had no choice and any other Russian leader would have to do the same.
It is just a question of how much Moscow will tolerate before this expands to US missile and drone depots, manufacturers, etc.?

It's really difficult to get so many lies and moronic misrepresentations in one post.

Congrats, everyone needs to be good at something.

Russia is looking at upwards of 20% inflation by the end of the year, has been carpet bombing cities with barrage artillery, his units have been destroyed one after another, and he's lost more casualties and equipment than they did in the Russian Invasion and Occupation of Afghanistan lasting ten years, their worst defeat in history until now.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

The Ruble does not need to be propped up because unlike the US, they have zero national debt.

What's sad is you probably believed that when you typed it.

Russia has been trying to prop up their crashing currency since before the invasion even began.

April 25 (Reuters) - The Russian rouble strengthened on Monday, firming past 77 against the euro to a near two-year high, helped by tax payments that companies are due to make this week and as the market looked ahead to a central bank rate decision on Friday.

The rouble was 3% stronger against the dollar at 73.17, hovering around levels seen before Feb. 24, when Russia sent tens of thousands of troops to Ukraine.

Dummy where you not just explained that Ruble is getting propped up by sky high interest rates and doesn't get traded in open market?? Foreigners can't sell off their Rubles.

And even as you ignore that you post two week old data. Ruble fell again on Friday by 5%

Rouble weakens sharply from over 2-year high vs euro before long weekend

The Russian rouble dropped sharply on Friday, pulling back from a more than two-year high against the euro as the spectre of more sanctions against Moscow hung over markets ahead of a second consecutive long holiday weekend.

You have this habit of only posting half of the story to back your argument.

There is nothing rude in pointing out that it's up to you to support what you say, not on me.

I said Ruble fell 5% on Friday and I've supported it.

What's rude is wasting everyone's time as you pathetically dodge the simple fact that Ruble is floated by trading restrictions and sky high interest rates.

Logic and common sense tells me that couldn't possibly be true.
