Well. When I spoke resources, I meant global Russian export. For example Russian "RosAtom" (Russian Atom) controls 90% of construction of nuclear power plants in world. Do not trust to urban legends, distributed by western propaganda, in fact share of oil and gas export in Russian GDP is only 16.5% now, while at past it was sometimes 50+%

Both countries are very dependable on Russian resources, so he has no point to worry. When Biden stated to insist that India has to cancel cooperation with Russia because of "sanctions", he got Indian polite, but firm "Fuck you".

Could you please read carefully? I wrote GDP PPP, because to compare GDP is pointless because of different purchasing power in different countries. BigMac in Turkey for $1.5 and BigMac in Switzerland for $9.99 - is the same BigMac, so it should add the same value to GDP, but when you compare GDP it doesn't, while when you compare GDP PPP it does. By the way if compare GDP, then Russia isn't 11th, it is 12th. Australia, Switzerland, Netherlands, are below. Tier III?

By the way: in the entire history of Russia, there is not a single case of Russia being defeated by an intervention that would lead to a change of regime or government. Russia has always remained Russia. No one has ever managed to capture the country. Russia has sometimes lost wars, but has never been defeated. Again AI: The reason is natural - the size of the country. There is no country or alliance in the world that is powerful enough and able to control such a huge territory. Napoleon. Hitler. But the most remarkable case is the Entente (the Allied intervention in Russia in 1918-1919) - 16 countries: from the USA and Great Britain to Australia, including many other European countries, jointly tried to defeat a weak and collapsed Russia after the revolution of 1917. It was a huge failure, despite the huge support of the former Tsarist army. So, please remember the lesson of history: Russia cannot be defeated. If someone tells you otherwise, he is a liar, or a fantasist, or a madman. Well, we must remember that any military pressure on Russia will inevitably lead to a third world war, which will be impossible to win: Russia is the largest nuclear power with a huge territory (see above) and hypersonic weapons, the interception of which currently does not exist.

Haha. Russia is in top-10 world economics and can't be "tier II" As usual AI's reference: Together China, India and Russia represent equal economic power as US + EU. Russia represents 10% of that union, since it hasn't 1.5 billions population like China or India.

Most funny conclusions. Zelenskiy already had changed constitution within past 5 years 3 times. Russia has no reason to leave. By the way: this land is in Russian constitution as well. The West does not have the strength to defeat Russia: the lack of people to mobilize in Ukraine is a critical problem, 80% of the world's countries ignore sanctions, and the impossibility of excluding Russia from the global economy are obvious. Here is an illustration of what the West has achieved with its actions: a global union has been formed, with which even such competitors as China and India have become close. The pressure does not work because the pressurizer has not grown (it is a pity that in the English translation this Russian phrase does not look as ironic as in the original: meaning "For to fuck someone you should have penis"), and the senseless proud puffing up of the cheeks by Western bureaucrats in the hope of impressing their own voters does not save them from a collision with reality - the West does not have enough resources and influence on what is happening. So if you want Russia to be defeated so badly, you (yes, you personally) will have to pick up a rifle and go to Ukraine. Just remember: from the moment you cross the Ukrainian border, you will become a legitimate military target for Russian drones.

Are you under hypnosis? I gave you direct link to Ukrainian presidential website. Use Google translate. Sorry for destroying your illusions. Dems forgot to tell you about this "small" problem? Ups...

Have you read my post correct? Law is for Zelenskiy. It is Ukrainian law.

Merz is good economist and bad politic, but this time he said truth: summit Putin - Zelenskiy isn't possible currently. Reason is very simple: Ukrainian law forbids to Zelenskiy to meet with Putin. It is resolution of National Security Consul from Sep 30 2022. https://www.president.gov.ua/documents/6792022-44249 Context: after Ukrainian withdrawal from peace talk in Istanbul at spring 2022, Zelenskiy was under strong pressure of the part of Ukrainian establishment to start peace talks again. For to eliminate that pressure this law was issued.

They said "Yemu povezlo" (without D) in meaning "he got good catch", because "yemu podvyezlo" means another things and is very dependable on context, but mainly in logistic/ transportation/delivery/travel Illustration. This guys is asking exactly "poDvezti"

I don't think so, and polonium in the center of London confirms it. By the way, in both cases - with polonium and with Salisbury, Russian agents did their job and left calmly. And, contrary to what Peter attributes to me, I do not deny that GRU agents visited Salisbury. The question is completely different: I am sure that they were doing some other work there, because Russia had neither motives nor reasons to suddenly remember Skripal after 14 years. But Theresa May had reasons to shout to the whole world - at that time she had serious problems on the domestic scene and needed to divert attention.

From my experience the only suitable indoor place to meet Indian is steam room in sauna or under shower - steam/water covers odor mostly.

I think two. Russia is now on the step "don't ask, don't tell".

Well, now I know why gay clubs are existed in London, Rome and Paris... Don't attribute to me something I didn't do. I've always written that in Russia, at the everyday level, there is strong homophobia, rooted in conservative religions. The state is completely indifferent to gays. What the state does here in relation to LGBT is not homophobia, but rather the suppression of attempts to politicize LGBT. Want to talk about the nightmare? Let's discuss the news from Minneapolis.

"Since then" it has started showing the current working hours of gay establishments: you can always see how many of them there are in the city and when they work. Who will make business in "nightmare"?

When the opponent has no arguments, opponents with a low debate culture switch to the personality of the vis-à-vis.

Moses? Google! London, Paris, Rome and Moscow on Google map right now: London Paris Rome Moscow

And second one question: How did it happen that Skripal, being under state protection, became accessible to GRU agents? Why is there no video recording of GRU agents' actions at Skripal's house?

Bla-bla-bla.. And again you ignoring my question: why Kremlin waited 14 years? Why it not used opportunity to kill Skripal as a "heart attack" while he was 6 years in Russian prison?

By your version it looks like: Russians were sitting in Moscow and after 14 years one of bosses said: "Oh, we forgot to punish Skripal! Let send agents to poison him!" It looks stupid, you know? All crimes have reason, motive. What new motive Russia got after 14 years, 8 of which Skripal already spend in UK, after he already told everything what he knew to British I.S.? I can imagine one only motive - all these 8 years Skripal was double agent and worked not only on MI6/MI5, but for GRU/FSB also. And in 2018 he told what he wants to quit and GRU made decision to punish him. Alternate path - MI5/MI6 found what Skripal was double agent and attempted to kill him at time when agents from GRU arrived to meet Skripal and get information from him. Then it is greatest fuckup of British I.S. and for to cover it UK govt made so many nose.

I already told you: they may have whatever reason - from tourism and to meeting with Russian agent in city. There is NO direct evidence what they were involved into Skripal case. And you avoiding answer my question: why should Russia wait for 14 years before to attempt to kill him in such complicated conditions when it had a lot of opportunities while Skripal was 6 years in Russian prison?

Dear, "direct evidence" are fingerprints of agents on door or door knob, photos/videos of agents adding poison on knob. Proof of their action. Photos of agents on streets isn't evidence at all. Because walking by city streets isn't crime.

So, you don't deny, what UK has no one, even single direct evidence? So, you haven't any answer why Russia made is on so complicated way: waited 14 years and then suddenly risks 2 agents and uses poison on foreign territory instead of creating "accident" on own territory. By the way: mother of Skripal died in 2021. Wanna as well accuse Russia, as you did in speculation about death of his wife on British land?

Looks like you have no answers to my questions. It was expected. Occam's razor, dear. And British "highly likely" bullshit without court verdict, without single direct evidence. Absence of direct evidence is real reason why after 7 years there is still no trial and verdict in this case. Pure speculations.

You gave no one answer to my question since first mention of Skripal in this thread: Why did Russia have to wait 14 years? It would have been much easier to eliminate Skripal on its own territory, in prison. Why was there no trial and no verdict? The absence of the accused on the territory of the country has never prevented the verdict from being passed, and the Litvinenko case is proof of this. Why was Skripal not properly guarded and Britain did not have a single piece of direct evidence?
