Oh well.
This is what Jens Stoltenberg, the head of NATO said three days ago;
“Russia has no veto. Russia has no say. And Russia has no right to establish a sphere of influence, trying to control their neighbours,” Stoltenberg told reporters, pounding his podium."
And that was not all that he said.
Obviously something about the "will of Ukrainian people" needed to be inserted in the midst of his speech.
So here it goes;
"This idea that NATO’s support to a sovereign nation is the provocation, is just wrong. It’s to respect the sovereignty and the will of the Ukrainian people,” he said, adding that Ukraine is an independent state, its borders must be safe and its neighbours must not violate them."
I saw that "will of the Ukrainian people" back in 2014, when the Eastern Ukrainians were trying to stop the tanks rolling from Kiev with their bare hands.
But THAT will didn't count.
It was the wrong kind of will, and it was suppressed by the howitzers and the bombing of the area.
Putin let it go and here it it is - the NATO is pressing to his borders.
A costly mistake that betrayal was ( in the name of money,) as I've said many times.
P.S. The question now is whether Zelensky and Co will decide to attack the LDNR or not, claiming the "integrity of Ukrainian territory" and blah-bla.
The Green Party in Germany is going after NS2. That's going to **** off a lot of people. It's not going to hurt Russia either, they were asked by Germany to build it, not because they needed or wanted to.
The problem is, the G7 countries have shot their bolt. They have next to no ties with Russia and besides. maybe Russia will just restrict Ukraines gas flows, shut down NS1 and close its airspace to western airlines. Toss in stop selling titanium and other metal to the west too.
This bull**** is not just going to hurt Russia, it's going to hurt Europeans too. A lot of them.

Can someone please tell me why the Visa Rules of Russia is one of the most complicated on this World? Not even China, India, Brazil, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Vietnam end up close to this extensive or lengthy in the bureaucracy process. Just missed an airplne flight from Istanbul to New York today because I needed a Transit Visa just for a connecting flight. And back in October, I had to postpone my own Travels to Russia for the next vacation probably right for around July 2022(Russia, Thailand are next within 7 months). Switching that with relatively easy to enter Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Jordan.
Also, tell me the exact correct Invitation Letter and Visa company to use. The one in October made my Letter wrong, and I had to sue them for compensation. Give me a legitimate website reference and I promise to send you Reputation points.

Out of curiosity - what Visa company did you deal with ( that messed up your paperwork)?
I need to look into that also. All I ever needed was a VISA to get there on a personal trip or the business VISA for work.
TPPF. Somebody may be ripping you off. Go through the Russian embassy directly or a consulate.
