You are probably right!

For the Russian people, the Chinese language is most needed. While Russian men in Siberia drink too much, Russian women marry the Chinese men.

Too bad, Russians and their supporters should not have pushed Russian language as an excuse to invade Ukraine and kill people there. This reaction should be a good lesson.



Can't get over the election eh? I'm very sorry, elections have consequences in democracies. What can I say, I sympathize. There is no scandal from the election except the one in Moscow's hysteria that the people in the (apparently misunderstood) South East actually overwhelmingly voted for a pro EU party. As above, too bad so sad.

You know who else learn English as part of "educated class"?
Yesterdays' colonies of Great Britain, today's third world countries.
I would think that someone like Iraqis are "learning English" now in order to survive around American military bases. ( getting jobs, working as interpreters and what's not.)
So while in your imagination Ukraine is becoming a "European nation," guess where it's really sliding to.

P.S. I am watching now Russian "60 minutes" where they are saying that American government is waking up now to the fact that Azov and the likes of it -( i.e. the official part of the Ukrainian Interior Ministry troops and backbone of the 2014 coup d'etat) is the terrorist organization.

The mad dog outlived its usefulness and getting out of control may be?

Sort of like radical Islamists?


Here they are showing people that went through the torture by Azov in Donbass ( needles under the fingernails, waterboarding and the rest of "pleasantries" you know. ) And these are the people who lived to tell. Those who were beaten to death is a whole different story - and those were the people who were not even part of the rebel troops - just the regular inhabitants of the "damned" area.

I can only shudder, thinking about the DNR soldiers who got into Azov hands.

This is the cross-reference from what I see.

Azov... they have proven themselves in combat so they will stay active as long as Russia keeps fighting in Ukraine.

Like I said before, if Russia doesn't want peace there are other ways to respond to the continuing attacks from their proxy forces in the Donbas.

In other news, the World Bank has upped its forecasts for Ukraine's economic growth in the current and next 2 years. This is assuming the Ze coalition continues to do what they plan to do.

And for my dear friends worried about Azov, another video

I'm not worried about Azov battalion, they're mercenaries and if they ever went up against the Russian armed forces they would not last long. The only option they would have (if they did not simply disappear into the dark when the first rumor is whispered) is to retreat. I'm not going to go into why, your understanding of modern mechanized warfare is non existent.

Considering where they are it is not ill advised to learn Chinese. They and Russia are the next big thing on the World island.

Oh no need to be so dramatic DKM.
Just simple acknowledgement that Nazi are indeed the backbone of American-supported regime after coup d'etat of 2014 would be sufficient.


But since it becomes more and more obvious, it's kinda embarrassing for American gov. innit?

The only thing embarassing for the American gov here is it took Ukraine to expose the corruption of the Trump administration, and somewhat the Republican party itself. It is so ironic that the new president of Ukraine wasn't corrupt to go along with Trump's plan and that caused this whole fracas...

Fortunately for Ukraine, this proved Ze is smart because the party headed to power soon is now very pro Ukrainian. He's a mastermind or very very lucky.
