Statistics show that there are more Nazis in Russia, including Putin's foreign policy advisor Herr Dugin.
@VK, why Ukraine is nazis ? Please, can you explain ?
The anthems of Russia and Belarus will not be performed in case of victories of athletes from these countries in competitions under the auspices of the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) due to events in Ukraine. This is reported on the FIG website.
“The flags of Russia and Belarus must not be flown and the anthems must not be played at any FIG sanctioned events until further notice,” the post reads.
So, it was not doping that they care, it is attempt to reestablish open dictatorship, but now in both US and EU.
Luckily archived-
Belgium will supply Ukraine with 2,000 machine guns and 3,800 tons of fuel to support the army - Belgian Prime Minister Alexandre de Cros.
Slovakia will supply Ukraine with 12,000 120-mm caliber mines, 10,000 tons of fuel, 2,400 tons of aviation kerosene, and two Bozena demining complexes.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz allowed partner countries to supply German-made weapons to Ukraine.
Just like during Nazis regime they support Nazis. The masks are off.
Public records of US biolabs in Ukraine were removed from the US Embassy website at around 2 p.m. today.
Hope you will enjoy playing only yourself at football and all other sport for the next 10 years
Andrew, issue is that you are still living in dream land. No one cares about football much here.
Beloved west already shitted on our sport for last 10-15 years as much as they could, so no one care.
People here care about proper health and not about high end sport that is bad for sports people and bad for you as you sit on your ass before TV.
Hope you will enjoy playing only yourself at football and all other sport for the next 10 years
The international payment system Mastercard sent out notifications to banks that fell under US blocking sanctions to suspend their participation in the system.
Our local Mir system is now requirement and will be used instead, so only international cards usage can be affected.
Most probably both MC and Visa will leave Mordor, Ukraine, Belarus and Kazahstan in few months.
They always did, it was just small 30 years pause :-)
They also ban individual Russians, including the famous musician Valery Gergiev.
@Vitaliy on this last piece of news, I can't help but think it's a net positive for Russia :-) as more wealth and foreign currency would stay in the country.
The European Union has decided to restrict financial flows from Russia by banning European banks from accepting deposits from Russians and Russian companies in excess of €100,000. A ban has also been introduced on the sale of securities in euros to clients from Russia
Finally.
Do they ban my favorite Russian stars, e.g. Evgeny Kissin, Anna Netrebko, or songs from Dimitri Horoskovsky?

Political correctness has reached British intelligence. In light of rising tensions in Europe, employees are advised to avoid words such as “manpower” (personnel), “grip” (power, reception), “strong” (strong) and generally monitor their “white privileges”
Poland proposes to perform act of suicide inducing huge blow on economy and their citizens:
Issue is that without Russian and Ukranian fertilizers, coal, gas and oil Poland citizens will starve and die in less than few months.
Intel, Dell and Lenovo stopped any deliveries to Russia, all their products will be banned from selling to Russia.
Dual morality is always the best:
Sanctions does not cover the russian gas/oil flowing into Germany/EU neither the payment system SWIFT used by Germany/EU to pay for said gas/oil.
Electric power prices is already at a dramatic level here in Norway due to the large amount of electricity sales on the cables running to Germany and UK etc, next week the electricity price might get a 25 per cent price hike due to the invasion.
If Germany/EU loses the russian gas/oil there will be total energy disaster in EU.
Putin's favourite sport is calling the west at their own game. It's not really a fun game or a fair game. That's why western politicians have so little to say and are generally reduced to bad sport commentators in such a situation.
Another way to look at nation-state politics is a bunch of mafia bosses who have a 'truce' from time to time but make secret deals on the side until some business goes bad and then it gets ugly when they have to figure out how to knock someone off to expand into their territory. Of course to look 'clean' they do lots of PR with charities, loans, parties etc to keep up a good image. In our case, autocratic "democracies" are a kind of mafia that deal mostly in fossil fuels, the opium of the 20th century and now 'data', the synthetic fashion drug of the 21st.
It does help to look at various facts like Ukraine's debt, a big part of which is loans to buy military hardware (funny enough from the same people who lend them money). Imagine if Ukraine used any of that money to buy Russian hardware. What do you think would happen? If you're a grifter bank, how much sympathy do you give to your clients, really... https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/02/26/imf-review-ukraine-debt-gdp-linked-warrants-reform/
The woes of materialists is all quite sad and pointless in the end (at least for me), but you'll never hear the well paid propagandists, bankers and analysts complain about it (except to their bar tenders, prostitutes and therapists).
Andrew, start fucking reading and thinking. Finally!
Vitaly, wake up.
Statement by the Chinese Foreign Ministry on the Ukrainian crisis:
China is opposed to any illegal and unilateral sanctions and expressed the hope that the parties concerned can resolve issues related to China so as not to affect its interests.
