Arming Ukraine in War in Ukraine ·
Carl Lee27 said:Estonia has sent more gear over again: ammo, armored vehicles, and D-30 howitzers
View on twitter

And there's more:
Estonia handed over howitzers, anti-tank mines, automatic weapons and grenade launchers to Ukraine
Estonia handed over anti-tank missiles, howitzers, anti-tank mines, recoilless anti-tank guns, automatic weapons, ammunition, disposable grenade launchers and hand grenades to Ukraine.


On top of that, I guess some Estonian businessmen, working alongside government agencies and the Estonian Armed Forces, passed along helmets, vests, comms gear, drones, night vision, laser rangefinders, med supplies, and even chemical protection gear to the Ukrainian military.

First your site was just straight-up hilarious, but now you're really leaning into those edgy references 😉

wiredseal7 said:You jumped straight to defending crooks and massive oligarchs like Khodorkovsky or this whole situation.

They got exactly what they asked for. Honestly, if more of them ended up like that—take Abramovich, for example—it would be a win. At least their money doesn't stay sitting in London.

You're also dodging the main point, regardless of the specifics—which is that this guy has plenty of reason to push disinformation about Russia the second he gets a chance. Just like Khodorkovsky does because of his grudge against his own homeland.

So I'm just lying and pushing propaganda? That guy is a joke too, much like any site that actually gives him a platform.
Learn to take everything with a grain of salt during a war. That means both the US and Russian sites.

Nah, I think you're just being dense because you can't seem to tell the difference between actual information and the source that's feeding it to you.

wiredseal7 said:Is that guy?
Leonid Nevzlin—the guy at the center of that whole mess with Yukos—is basically a walking case study in how messy international business and politics get when they collide. After everything went down with the government seizing his assets, he ended up fighting back through the Permanent Court of Arbitration, which actually sided with him and the other shareholders, calling out the state's move as a calculated attempt to wipe out the company. It’s one of those classic stories where you see exactly how much leverage a massive corporation can have against a state, even after they've tried to tear it all down.
Looks like the guy from Yukos—sentenced in absentia—just bolted for Israel.

Probably just some unreliable source looking to spread misinformation—not exactly a gold standard for truth.

First you thought Ukraine was just a joke, then once you realized where the info was coming from and googled Leonid Nevzlin, suddenly he's unreliable.🙄

Tomorrow morning, the European Union Parliament will vote on an embargo against imports from Russia—specifically targeting oil, coal, and nuclear fuels.

After some intense negotiations among all 27 member states, everyone expects the embargo to pass with a majority. If it does, it goes into effect immediately...

Ultimately, Parliament is expected to call for "a complete and immediate embargo on imports of Russian oil, coal, and nuclear fuels", while regarding gas, they say the ban should happen "as soon as possible."

The gas import embargo should also be coming fast!

Deutsche Bank is denying services to people of Russian descent, calling it "excessive":

As long as nobody actually shoots anyone over this hysteria, I guess we're still doing okay.

that site is just reporting what Leonid Nevzlin actually said during his interview.

Leonid Nevzlin, who used to run that Yukos oil firm, just gave an interview where he claimed that Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has been making trips over to North Korea and China, basically begging for missiles because Russia is running dry on them—apparently, they can't even replace their own stock since 70-80% of their parts are sourced from abroad.
China wouldn't even give him the time of day!

I guess we finally figured out why Shoigu hasn't been showing his face in public lately.

Given that this invasion kicked off over a month ago, this is an absolute failure on NATO's part.

The channels are open. Supply lines through the Carpathians are wide open.

I guess there’s just something incredibly depressing about the fact that some people aren't in any rush, probably because they're just waiting for the chance to make a killing on the reconstruction one day. 😢

Russian tank plant reportedly shut down, according to Ukrainian intel

So, apparently Ukrainian military intelligence is saying that this factory out in the Chelyabinsk region—the one responsible for building and fixing up Russian tanks—has basically ground to a halt because they can't get their hands on imported parts anymore.

I guess we'll see who actually has the guts to tell Putin 😁
