I mean that was Russia's point. Europe won't allow there to be a free Ukraine. It's a European puppet. We fuking overthrew their government on the justification that their elections must have been rigged because the polling didn't turn out the way we thought it would. It would be like having a foreign power put Hillary in the white house in 2016 because the polls said she would win. Never mind how retarded the methodology of those polls was.

In any case whether right or wrong if you antagonize someone to action even after being warned you don't get a total pass for the role you played in what occurred. That goes double coming from a country that does the same chit all the damn time.

Record high gas prices in the US, and it will continue to climb higher. And record 40 year high inflation which will continue to climb, and let's not mention the massive crime surge we continue to see year after year.

I think you mean the Malta Summit, and yes I know about the Cold Peace. Ukraine isn't in NATO, it isn't even in the EU. So what's the justification for Russia?

Ukraine wants to join with Europe. "Free" Ukraine is one not under Russia's thumb. Putin didn't invade Ukraine to free them, but to maintain control

You do realize Poots was meddling in Ukraine for YEARS before, right? You do realize Viktor was a Pootin puppet who was couped back to Russia, right? So tell me why you think its OK for Pootin to meddle in Ukraine but not the US. Wonder who Ukrainians would be more happy being aligned with? Why did Pootin never try to be diplomatic with Ukraine? Instead pillaging money from them and then killing thousands of innocent people?

Typical Europe:



Typical Russia:



No wonder I haven't met anyone in my life who ever wanted to move to Russia....

Here’s how this can play out…

IF Russia is backing the ruble with gold, AND it is selling oil in gold, that then prices oil in gold for outsiders. IF an arbitrage exists for countries to buy Russian energy with gold, they will buy gold and flip it for oil, saving a lot of money.
This can re-price gold to whatever Russia wants it to be. My guess is this was decided well beforehand and also my guess is Putin is pushing a number that is “do-able” to the West and not meant to break all of the markets. Meaning, 50-75 barrels could crack the gold and silver market overnight into a smoking heap of ****, and end that game instantly. There is nothing the LBMA or COMEX can do when everything they have is being bought up in a day – meaning it forces prices up vertically IF they want to exist, at all. Shorts – like big Western banks, get religious experiences. As of THIS moment, they are re-thinking how short they are in gold and silver and contemplating an exit strategy next week.
Ukraine will be broken up – the eastern provinces will be neutral. Crimea will be Russian. Ukraine will not be NATO. That seemed to be the kinetic objective, all along.
The dollar is no longer the world’s reserve currency. Remember above, about the Petro dollar? The agreement was for the Saudis to buy our debt, and we buy their oil? I just saw the debt they buy from us has gone from $180b to $100b. I see we only buy 9% of their oil. China needs a lot of that.
Much of the world will start to buy commodities from Russia and Side B in gold, IF they want to trade with them.

Its questionable that putin could have even attempted an invasion if biden and europe hadnt catered to the retarded green energy libtard plan of buying energy instead of producing it

I went ahead and checked. Moscow Open still only open with massive trading restrictions. OP will probably say that’s true freedom and praise Comrade Putin for it though.

I mean seriously. If the Ruble and their economy is doing so good, why the fuk would you still have massive restrictions on your stock market? The only logical answer is obviously it isn't doing that good and they know lifting the restrictions would instantly tank the ruble and their entire economy. Smoke and mirrors.
