Everything you posted seems to prove my point.

1) Cuba is in dire economic situation due to decades of illegal and questionable economic war waged by the United States even though Castro has been dead for a long time. There is absolutely no need to keep the sanctions in place on a tiny island of ~10M people as those do not present any political, military or economical threat. Yet both United States and Israel vote to keep inhuman economic blockade of the island in place. This will inevitably drive Cuba into the arms of those who are willing to support it - Russian, China, Iran and so on.

2) If you truly believe Russia is in dire need of what, 20 extra fighters that don't even speak Russian and Ukrainian freedom fighters are going to collapse because of it - I'm going to break bad news to you son. Is Vladimir bin Zelensky a nice new moniker for disillusioned Ukranian leadership once US jettisons them? IF anything Ukraine has lost thousands of foreign mercenaries as KIAs, MIAs and POWs. The most humiliating I've seen is probably this British kid Aidan - who was all arrogant online, posting NAFO memes, but changed his tone real quick once shit hit the fan and he got captured together with Azov nazis and almost got executed (mercenaries get no protection under Geneva convention like e.g. Ukrainian POWs and nobody is going to miss them).

3) If anything - I have not posted many Russian sources in this thread and rely almost exclusively on Western (US, UK, Dutch) sources to explain my position and my arguments. Most of these arguments have stood the time and I have not seen even a meager attempt to discuss them - instead the likes of you try to divert the discussion elsewhere with whataboutism and personal attacks. My position about this war is well known to posters here and I regret the fact that people that were able to articulate their thought and hold a debate opposite me have gotten bored and left this subforum. Instead we now have some brainless NAFO zombies reposting stale memes and attacking posters because they are unable to string together more than 3 sentences.

Again my question to you: what do you think will happen if Cuba will again station Russian or Chinese nuclear submarines and Avangard MIRV nukes (in exchange for infrastructure development or economic favors or whatever)? Is that allowed according to international law and realpolitik? Cuba seems eerily close to be the Taiwan of United States - an unsinkable aircraft carrier which is difficult to attack (remember the Bay of Pigs humiliation suffered by the strongest military in the world?).

The most humiliating is when Russians POWS start crying their eyes out, claiming this war is nonsense and that Ukraine is right then by your logic. The change of their ideology can only be compared to that of communists in Russia who turned into democrats in matter of days during the 1990 lol.

You just said that that Cuban merc is fine and well... While his mother stated: “I don’t know if my son is alive. We don’t know anything,” she said. “What I would like is to talk to him.”

Seems like your Russian origins make you overlook the sad truth about your dear homeland. At least "publicly" in this forum, we all know you made your choice by leaving Russia to pay taxes in Netherlands, that are used to decimate your fellow brothers.

There you go - stale one year old NAFO meme documenting an Ukrainian war crime.

Why is this still on YouTube?

"“The Ministry of Defense is trying to deceive the public and the president and spin the story that there were insane levels of aggression from the Ukrainian side and that they were going to attack us together with the whole NATO bloc,” Prigozhin said on his Telegram channel on June 23. The truth, he said, was that “there was nothing extraordinary happening on the eve of February 24,” the day last year when Russian invaded. Ukraine was not planning any kind of attack against Russia, he added.
Russia’s invasion “was started for a completely different reason,” Prigozhin said. “What was the war for? The war was needed for Shoigu to receive a hero star. … The oligarchic clan that rules Russia needed the war,” he said. “The mentally ill scumbags decided: ‘It’s OK, we’ll throw in a few thousand more Russian men as cannon fodder. They’ll die under artillery fire, but we’ll get what we want.’”
“Shoigu killed thousands of the most combat-ready Russian soldiers in the first days of the war,” Prigozhin said, adding that the invasion began even as Zelenskyy and Ukraine were eager for peace. The Ukrainian leader “was ready for agreements. All that needed to be done was to get off Mount Olympus and negotiate with him.”"

The words of Russia's most successful general to date in the Ukrainian war. When I say general assume I also mean warlord.
This honesty by Prigozhin along with his actions, got him killed; So perhaps that is why some posters here tend to err on the side of untruthfulness.

Remain vigilant, their hypocrisy will become ever more apparent.
