Let's discuss Russian economy. Many underestimate its dependency upon technological import. Russia's so deeply integrated into Western technological chains that severing these ties will lead to its collapse. Sanctions are already effective and can be made even more efficient🧵 https://t.co/gKUZ665ePm

on it

[scarlet crown]

honestly, considering the overall morale of the nation, i think it's pretty real

[zinc talon]

oh no i feel you. First few days i wasn't even able to watch tv or listen to music bcs i was constantly focused on twitter. But it feels like things are slowing down online

[scarlet crown]

i can agree on that, yesterday's lack of air sirens here confirms it

[scarlet crown]

i wonder if he died due to a sabotauged parachute

there's already instances going around that catapulted russian pilots did not have their parachutes in working conditions

[paper cedar]

I mean I agree there would be for sure fastest that ever would be because after the war if Ukraine wins the entire world will donate and help them out from governments to other organizations
But remember that for example Poland even after 80 years they are still a poor country that still has problems with roads and stuff

Then there is Kosovo that is currently getting quite a lot of help already because of the war they had 20 years ago and they are still rebuilding

And because of Ukraine size and how many missiles Russia uses I think it will still take at least 10 years to rebuild

[split aurora]

I mean

its a statement for morale

at the end of the day

Looking at the live map, on one side a group of occupier vehicles were droned, on the other a BUK was droned and small village a bit north of kyiv was liberated from the russians

russia has eclipsed 1000 confirmed equipment losses! confirmed ukrainian equipment losses currently stand at roughly 1/4th of that https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/attack-on-europe-documenting-equipment.html

note that these are only the losses with photo/video evidence backing them up. there’s an entire ocean of losses that we don’t know about, as well as losses that are likely but unconfirmed, like the russian corvette and transport planes

[copper monolith]

according to IMF, Russia's GDP was $1,647.5 trillion in 2021, so if it decreased by just 15%, it would lose $247 billion and fall to 1.4 trillion, and fall from 11th to 15th, falling behind Spain, which in 2021 had $1.439 trillion

[viral junco]

much of the russian advance is an overreliance on mechanised infantry

it means nothing without troop support as otherwise they're just troop cookers
there's a reason why infantry goes in behind vehicles

Well regardless, some people will be desperate. Which im assuming Putin wants to take advantage of

undeniable, some people might just use those corridors out of desperation

but it's highly unlikely that they'll lead anywhere safe

or be safe in the first place

most people understand this and won't fall for such a scummish act of aid

instead, russians might just send in actors again to scene ukrainians fleeing

just like they tried to do with humanitarian aid in Kherson

its america and Russia

they're the only nations that store smallpox

[limber wagon]

also, the dude they interviewed is named "pope", ignore that and imagine its the actual pope.

[copper monolith]

lmao

speaking of biolabs, you need them to actually check if a person has covid, and uh oh you can see when the invasion started

beginning to worry that we might have a new wave from everyone getting infected while escaping Ukraine and then going to other countries

[limber wagon]

yeah, there is gonna be a massive outbreak there. Just imagine all those people who are sheltering inside train stations. No personal space whatsoever.

[copper monolith]

and it's gonna spread all over europe too, I started thinking about this because there's an uptick of new cases here

[split aurora]

theres a big uptick here, as isolation is no longer legally required

when positive

positive people have no legal restrictions 😬

soooo people are getting covid, going out, spreading it

They're actually repeating Holodomor there, it's serious

people in Mariupol have no means for electricity or heat

or basic humanitarian aid

[unreal path]

What the actual crap is Russia talking about in the UNSC meeting?

[scarlet crown]

This further shows their goal to just eradicate all of us

I heard from my mutuals in Kherson that most citizens are sitting at home, eating what they have

occupants dont spare anyone who comes outside

forcing their ""aid""

As a temporary measure we have relocated some of our essential staff outside Kyiv so that we can keep delivering assistance with the minimum of disruption, and, at the same time reduce risk to UN personnel. Some UN humanitarian staff remain in Kyiv. The United Nations has mobilized staff and supplies, both to help people fleeing across borders for safety, and to support those inside the country.

China is speaking now (UNSC meeting)

[copper monolith]

oh no

[limber wagon]

Havent been able to watch the UNSC until now, what did I miss?

[unreal path]

Russia claims that the US and Ukraine have labs in Ukraine made to develop/research chemical and/or biological weapons (which the UN has questioned because they have received no intel of such a situation)

[split aurora]

sooooo just more baseless rubbish

[limber wagon]

Thanks, so russia just provided empty claims and people don't believe it?

I see Kenya is talking about the conflict more rather than the russian claims

[unreal path]

the only thing I could think of is maybe Russia is wanting this meeting to be another distraction like they did when they started the war

[unreal path]

yeah most people are like yeah no one believes you Russia, and then gets back to talking about the war

[unreal path]

they do have a source: trust us bro :>

the UAE is the current president of the UNSC btw

this meeting was called by Russia

[limber wagon]

There have been rumours of multiple false flags in the works by Russia. Chornobyl, Ukrainian drone in crimea, bombing in Belarus. Dunno how much of that is true of course, but if it is, then Russia seems to have started a more worldwide anti Ukraine campaign instead of just their internal propaganda

[unreal path]

basically a waste of time :/

[unreal path]

well we do know that Russia has speaked at the UNSC to spread misinfomation to valid their response

Gabon just finished speaking

Russia has asked to talk again

they are talking now

would be useful if we could actually see the things they want to show

[unreal path]

yeah cameras really have an issue with screens :(

I like he mentioned that Russia told Routers that they would look into civilian targets being hit because both sides doesn't have clear infomation....umm Russia, does that mean you don't have a clear image on YOUR OWN MILITARY?

no more speakers, meeting is over

so what did we learn today? russia is full of bs

Poland gets it

It's ironic how Poland became one of our best allies during this, despite most conflicts we've had in the past

can't be grateful enough

[silk iron]

Nothing like a more threatening common enemy to brush aside historic grievances

[hollow hollow]

i've been thinking about the whole polish mig situation and i honestly wouldn't be surprised if the us denying them getting sent to ukraine was all just smoke and mirrors for poland to sneak them in

[split aurora]

mfw russia very nearly didnt become a great power

[hollow hollow]

i have a sneaky feeling that polish migs are getting painted with ukrainian pixel camo rn

[split aurora]

imagine history if sweden won the great northern war instead of russia

the end of that war finished in ukraine, interestingly

[split aurora]

and thing is like

cut them down

chuck them in trucks

transport them to a ukrainian airbase in the west

and you cant differentiate them

from a distance anyway

[grizzled steeple]

"Ah nah man its just scrap metal in here"

[hollow hollow]

aircraft can't really be disassembled and reassembled like that, but i still think they're getting them to ukraine somehow

[split aurora]

in ww2 america (as per the neutrality act) wasnt allowed to fly planes to the uk

to sell them

so america placed them 10miles from the canadian border

had canadian horses pull them north of the border

then they could be flown to the uk

some loophole of that nature could absolutely be found

if you got clever people to think about it for a while

some way to avoid just flying them in

[hollow hollow]

they could take them in on flatbeds maybe

or trains

the mig 29 is actually a pretty small fighter

[split aurora]

can wings be easily removed?

the wings couldnt fit but if you can take off the wings you can deffo get them in trucks/trains

[hollow hollow]

i know they can be on big bombers like the b-1 and b-52

probably not on migs tho

[split aurora]

id imagine its not the hardest job in the world

but im just guessin here

[hollow hollow]

they're designed to come off on certain planes, but on the mig they're a part of the airframe

[split aurora]

gotta also make them not a target

[hollow hollow]

they can't just be sawed off

[split aurora]

ah :/

[split aurora]

so russia cant prove whats going on

and cant missile target

[verbal heath]

we feel bad for ukraine

Now would attacking supplies justify a nato intervention?

That's what I'm curious about

[split aurora]

I do expect nato would respond

because afaik its nato trucks and nato drivers taking these supply convoys in

and they are not legally or internationally classed as a participant in this conflict for supplying arms

how much would nato respond? hard to tell

keeping the air superiority I guess

you'd need 100+ to give ukraine superiority

they have to hold it

• we know for 100% that we'll win, but we don't know exactly when that will happen
• around 1300 of our soldiers had died

this order is going around in the news
It's an order from russian military forces to fire officers who were involved in bombing civilian infrastructure during "special operation" on Ukraine
Seems like Russia is going to try to point fingers again and put the blame on it's people
