Great news that the tanker was seized... never mind the childish reactions of the Russians...! Please, seized more of the shadow tankers! They are a danger to the environment: very often old vessels....
Moscow has slammed the U.S. over the seizure of a Russian-flagged tanker, saying "no state has the right to use force against vessels duly registered under the jurisdiction of other states."
Moscow Slams U.S. Use of Force Against Russia-Flagged Tanker - The Moscow Times

Yes... true ...Russia got isolated in international relations, moreover: they lost Syria completely!!! There is not much publiced about this, but it was a major blow!!! And ...they recently lost their "friend" Venezuela and are going to lost their "friend" Iran.....
Russia was far more powerful, had more influence, and more potential before Putin decided to launch his failed full-scale invasion of Ukraine

More humiliation for the Kremlin at this hour, as a TRUE "special military operation" is ongoing, with NATO forces seizing a sanctioned Russian tanker on the North Sea.

I'm never backing down. I'm going to continue holding this Administration accountable because I won't let them intimidate me or any American out of speaking their mind.

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.
But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Connecting Russian an Western experts ...Stanovaya has a good reputation
Interesting new project from political analyst Tatiana Stanovaya: "StarkTalk," a platform for connecting Russian and Western experts in a "virtual equivalent of Track 2 discussions." So much communication has broken down since 2022; this initiative makes sense. I wish them luck! t.me/stanovaya/1860

Putin is used to bluffing and poker playing and lying, has no moral kompass... #Russiaislosingthewar
Just a reminder:
Russia still controls 0/23 of the regional capitals and special-status cities that Ukraine controlled at the start of the war.
Russia is extremely far from reaching its strategic goals and is thus losing the pointless war it started

As the battle rages on Russia still doesn’t control the whole city and Ukrainian forces are still present as they are in Myronrahd.
It’s estimated that Russia has lost the equivalent of five motorised armoured divisions and three motorised infantry divisions fighting
