This Wednesday, the Finnish Parliament approved by vote a law authorizing in advance the entry of the Scandinavian country into NATO by an overwhelming majority. For a result of 184 votes for and only 7 against, the support of the parties was almost unanimous. A few Finnish MPs from the far left as well as the far right voted against the law.
Finland is recognized as being one of the most civilizationally advanced countries in the world: What profound moron would dare to criticize NATO and the defensive and protective approach against the bloc of the kleptocratic Russian Oligarchy, against the cannibals of the CCP, against the crazy theocrats of Iran, against the monstrous dictator of North Korea?

Very normal

"Western media" should turn to our comrades in Moscow for how to run an impartial, honest and propaganda free fourth estate.

Debating the real pressing questions, like whether Zelensky is the devil himself or just a minor demon.

This. The collapse of soviet union and its affect on Russia's birthrate in the 90's; Not to mention the drain of those people who left what is now Russia, during that time.
Putin knows this generation is his last chance to create a standing professional army in Russia; One generation later and there simply isn't enough men of fighting age.

If the Ukraine conflict becomes a generational conflict whereby Russia has to station hundreds of thousands of troops in the DPR, then its a logistical nightmare for Putato and Russia's economy.

The whole of Europe’s fertility rate has been on a steep decline so not sure how you deciphered that Russias decline has to do with the Soviet Union disbanding and not the general trend. Their fertility rates have actually been on the rise over ~15 years or so and look much better if you compare it to some truly in trouble countries like Spain and Italy. Luckily for places like UK and Germany they have a ton of immigrants who tend to really bump up those fertility rates.

If this war drags on for years it’s Ukraine who would be in real trouble considering ~20-25% of their population left and those that left tend to be younger. If western funding cuts out at some point, and Ukraine is left a bombed out shell with lack of economic output you might even see further outflows of people into Europe.

That may be true.
I am referring specifically to the Soviet collapse and its effect on Russian demography.

And no one gives a damn, Russia stepped it up (mobilized, armament plants roaring 24/7) which means the sanctions absolutely and undeniably failed like I said before.

You should've realized this because sanctions never stopped leaders in Iran, NK and Venezuela for example, countries that are dots on the map compared to Russia.




EU got hit hard by inflation / energy crisis, Germany got hit hardest of all countries in EU, lol.

Stay in denial you drone

Bwahahahaha, just a few examples of propaganda free Western media:

Russia is losing a general every week of the war

The sanctions will cripple Russia

Putin is dying of cancer

Russian troops are hiding in the nuclear power plant and the Russian army is shelling the plant

Russia shelled their own prison camp

Russia blew up it's own pipeline

Russia is only capable of hitting civilians

And you believe that trash? LOL




Finland was not threatened by Russia, Finland =/= Ukraine, no Russian naval base in Finland, do I need to go on? No, didn't think so, lol

But thx for highlighting NATO expansion

VENEZUELA

Oh my god. Well good luck Russia if your target is to stay as successful as Venezuela.

Your a lost cause guy. Way too emotional.
