He was the comedy king of Bagdad. Everybody liked him. The simple facts are that the kleptomaniacs could not have beaten the UK and France (nuclear powers) alone in a non-nuclear war even before and could not have survived a nuclear one with 90 percent of the population in 25 percent of the country.
Whatever happened to him? He coulda come to the US and made a career in comedy. I can imagine a second Yakov Smirnoff.
As we expected... Putin cut deal with Wagner ‘to save his skin,’ MI6 chief says in rare speech https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/19/europe/mi6-putin-wagner-rare-speech-intl/index.html
BTW - Wagner released their casualty figures. 78 thousand Wagnerites were used in the fighting. 22 thousand KIA. 40 thousand wounded. That's a 77% casualty rate. No wonder they ran away. Source: https://t.me/razgruzka_vagnera/240
60,000 tonnes of agricultural products destroyed by Russian missiles were to be sent to China – Zelenskyy OLEKSANDR SHUMILIN — Wednesday, 19 July 2023 https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/07/19/7412066/ 60,000 tonnes of agricultural products destroyed by Russia's missile strikes on Odesa Oblast on the night of 18-19 July were to be delivered to China. Quote: "This attack proves that their target is not only Ukraine, and not only the lives of our people. About a million tons of food is stored in the ports that were attacked today. This is the volume that should have been delivered to consumer countries in Africa and Asia long ago. The port terminal that suffered the most from the Russian terror last night had 60,000 tons of agricultural products stored in it, which were intended to be shipped to China. That is, everyone is affected by this Russian terror."
That's what many people don't even realize. All over the world people think: this does not concern us. Even in the US that same reflection is made. Everything that Putin does not like should be destroyed. No matter who or what it is. So everybody is at risk. Even countries that at this moment sympathize with Putin.
