    Let me know when they publish an opinion article saying we should have attempted a little bit of diplomacy with Nazi Germany.

    Ukrainians lead the negotiations with Russia. Diplomacy was tried and failed.

    From our side, we warned Putin and totally broadcast sanctions and support for Ukraine. He understood these things when he made the decision. As the Romans would say “the ram has touched the wall.”

    As usual, not a thought your own. Terr just implied the very same thing.

    Well it seems should anyone have a spare nuke, there is this pointless patch of desert nobody will really miss. It will be actually good for the environment long term as well since its a real waste of Earth's resources.

    Russians flocking to Dubai to avoid sanctions.

    Dubai has emerged as a haven for wealthy Russians fleeing the impact of western sanctions over the war in Ukraine.

    Russian billionaires and entrepreneurs have been arriving in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in unprecedented numbers, business leaders told the BBC.

    Property purchases in Dubai by Russians surged by 67% in the first three months of 2022, a report said.

    The UAE has not put sanctions on Russia or criticised its invasion of Ukraine.

    It is also providing visas to non-sanctioned Russians while many Western countries have restricted them.

    Israel outrage at Sergei Lavrov's claim that Hitler was part Jewish

    Lavrov's OWN DAUGHTER is married with an Israeli and their children have Israelian nationality.

    And Lavrov's step daughter is living a decadent life in London. Lavrov despises the decadent life in Europe...
