Widely accepted rules say that when you cut supply and energy lines from the city, and bombard it, starve it, it will have no other choice than to surrender, sooner or later.
150k people willing to resist maybe, but how you gonna arm these people at least with javelins, Panzerfausts, bulletproof vests, etc, when you didnt have them?
And give those people even a very little basic military training?
When you are against an army that has a shitload of advanced weaponry, armored vehicles, that laugh ak47 in the face?


Why AK-47 when you can get a Mosin rifle? If that museum has a hall of antiquities then you can scrounge an ataghan or a dual-wielder to shred neo-nazies with style.

@Ironfister you can buy dollars and euros since April, 18th


There are still some limits to withdrawals and exchanges, for example 10k per person. The companies are still forced to exchange some of their foreign income, if Im not wrong.
Also is the stock exchange open to non-residents so they can get out of their investments?
But you are right that the panic was handled. We will see how it goes in the longer run.
Countries reduced and are still reducing their purchases in Russia, Russian oil is 40usd cheaper than Brent.
I hope you Russian guys bankrupt quickly and leave Ukraine. And in the long term return to 1990s more peaceful politics.
We have a planet that is boiling from global warming, yet some countries prefer to play wars instead. Sad.

xenophobia: dislike of or prejudice against people from other countries. I think thats the best word in this instance ?

When you realise you are on the wrong side, just join team #Ukraine.
There is not much blame in being wrong.

Well, his country considers mine as a nazi, that needs to be denazified right after Ukraine.
Do you really expect me to respect Russia in that situation?
What if they call Ireland nazi, would you like it? Obviously not.
Also 74% Russians support war, so we cant really say its just Putin war.
Of course, Russians are under propaganda, Putin lies to them, its not really their fault, but still I dont see other way than country going bankrupt and having to stop the war because of that.

At least a positive point, despite atrocities done by Russians nazis, is that Europe is massively investing into renewable energies.

"Russia" does not want does not want to let Ukraine to appears as a successful integration into the west block and Putin who is aging and losing power is doing shit all around to justify his presence.
There's no problem in any propaganda since Russia is definitely the agressor in this story. US and even UK are increasing tension to establish that ALL THIS is the entire fault of Russia.

pull up a post where he claimed this and i will support you, but regardless, the response to someone calling all W people X is not to calll all Y people Z.
if someone said to me that all irish people are nazi's, my response would be, not all irish people are nazi's but for sure some of them are (its a universal problem in various countries).
