And some reports from Crimea. Apparently there is a huge wave of real estate for sale for hugely discounted prices, probably mostly from Russians who moved there after 2014. They seem to know where the wind is blowing.

I suggest putting the remaining products on the shelves so that together they create a Z shape.

Qualcomm has joined the sanctions - will stop all sales and support in Russia. Xerox - same. Netherlands paint manufacturer Akzo Nobel is closing its four factories in Russia.

Just shows that Russian government is getting desperate and close to the height of stupidity. Both Boeing and Airbus have imposed strict sanctions against Russia. No sales, maintenance of spare parts. The certificates of air worthiness for those planes have been withdrawn. So - they steal the...

The Stalingrad battle was one of the worst during WWII. Russians had 500K dead out of the total of about 3M troops in 120 days. That's about 140 KIA/day for every 100,000 troops. If you take that 7,000 number (and that's a conservative estimate). 20 days. 200,000 (less, but let's round up)...

The Serbian state airline, Air Serbia, has cancelled all flights to and from Russia. That's Serbia. The biggest Putin poodle in Europe.

Fifth. Mohamed Tushayev - a Chechen brigadier-general - was killed in the first few days of the war.

Lavrov's plane flying to Beijing turns around and comes back.

That one headline (if it is somehow brought to most Russians' attention) will be quite harmful to the regime. Whenever Russians think of how crappy their country is, there are always two rejoinders: "but ballet" and "but cosmos (space)".

Russia screwed itself. Hard.

LOL so the rate you're quoting comes from Russian Central Bank :) Thank you, that's funny. No one can go, give 100 rubles and buy $1. But the "rate" is there. Pure fiction. They should just set it back to 70. Looks even better.

Domestic money changers in Russia are forbidden to sell dollars. I just wonder - where does that number you posted above come from? What exchange? On black market AFAIK ruble is being bought/sold, in very thin trade, at 300-350 right now. MOEX is closed and is not projected to reopen any time...

What exchange is USD.RUB trading on?

The Stalingrad battle was one of the worst during WWII. Russians had 500K dead out of the total of about 3M troops in 120 days. That's about 140 KIA/day for every 100,000 troops. In Ukraine so far the most conservative Western estimates are around 8,000 Russian dead (Ukrainian estimates are...

Latest: another Russian one-star general was killed today by Ukrainian forces. "Major General" Oleg Mityayev, 150th motorized division commander. Last was the second in command of the Russian forces in Syria. Go to hell, Oleg. That makes it five Russian one-star generals confirmed eliminated...

Russia loses 400-700 KIA per day for its 200,000 troops in Ukraine. Let's compare that to Soviet losses per 200,000 troops during World War II: Operation Barbarossa: 235 KIA/day Winter War vs. Finland: 425 KIA/day Battle of Stalingrad: 514 KIA/day

That's just the first step. They still intend to indict her criminally.

Actually the deterioration (or "poisoning") would not cause premature detonation, but no detonation at all or very partial detonation.

And? Russia is still an extreme lightweight, both economically and militarily. It's a third-world country with nuclear weapons. And there is actually quite a lot of doubt on whether their nuclear weapons will work. Those need very delicate maintenance otherwise they deteriorate fairly quickly...

Uh hu. 'Cuz being dependent on China is a lot better than on the US. :)
