This is what happens when you recklessly extend BRICS right up to America’s borders and ignore America’s legitimate security concerns.

If international law doesn't apply to Israel why would anyone believe it applies to USA?

These declassified exchanges between Prez and W Bush in which I completely deny Ukraine's existence just prove the West provoked Russia by claiming it does.

Remember when the trump administration colluding with the Kremlin was a "democrat hoax"?

1\ The size of the effect of the new Lukoil/Rosneft sanctions is STILL unclear.

Here are Urals prices which I *think* include insurance and shipping from Trading economics.

Basically at pre-sanction levels.

1\ Bloomberg's weekly update on Russian oil exports should be very useful when it comes out on the 4th November.

It will help us work out whether the Lukoil/Rosneft sanctions have increased or decreased Russian oil income.

IMO it'll be months before we're sure still.

Day 1343 of my 3 day war. I asked my generals how they plan to give security guarantees for Europe when they can't provide them for Russia.

I remain a master strategist.

Footage shows Russia’s deliberate strikes on a kindergarten in Kharkiv. At the time of the attack by three Shahed drones, 48 children were sheltering inside.

#TACO has withdrawn from the peace talks. Not surprised. He is Russian agent.

I feel like #Putin has changed his mind about #Zelensky and peace. This might be connected to performance of Russian economy. However we don’t see any collapse.

This needs to continue on daily basis.
The Lukoil refinery in Volgograd, Russia, was severely struck. Several pictures and videos show that the oil facility is burning. This is confirmed by the NASA FIRMS map.

The refinery produces 14.5 million tons in oil products. It is the 7th time that this facility was struck.

Putin want Ukraine to give up Eastern Ukraine for a temporary halt to the war which will be restarted once Putin's army gets refreshed. Then Putin will continue his push for all of Ukraine.

So called superpower....
The Russian government's attempt to halt daily record gasoline prices by banning exports has failed.

Prices only continue higher, now beating all previous records.

This is why Ruzzians are not human. That's why we call them disgusting Orcs.
Russians have released footage showing their drones deliberately targeting Ukrainian rescue workers. “This isn't just terror — it’s deliberate inhumanity. Attacking those pulling people from the rubble is a war on life itself,” said Ukraine’s emergency service.

More bad news from Russia

Amid falling budget revenues, the Ru government has sharply increased the placement of government bonds.

As June 25, the increase in bonds in circulation since the beginning of the year amounted to 2.5 trillion rub. Government debt is flying into space
