    i just wonder... where are the russians getting their money from?

    They trade with a large part of the world  not in alignment with US/Euro thinking..

     

    https://www.reuters.com/world/what-is-brics-who-are-its-members-2023-08-21/

     

    Over 40 countries, including Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Argentina, Algeria, Bolivia, Indonesia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Cuba, Democratic Republic of Congo, Comoros, Gabon, and Kazakhstan have expressed interest in joining the forum, according to 2023 summit chair South Africa.

    They view BRICS as an alternative to global bodies viewed as dominated by the traditional Western powers and hope membership will unlock benefits including development finance, and increased trade and investment.

    If you don't know, why did you say "Who will release tapes" ?

    One could apply the same reasoning to his invasion of Ukraine, despite his denials. Do you think he'd invade again now if he had a redo? His strategy now is to hang on and hope Trump wins so he'll nobble nato. Otherwise he'll release the tapes.

     

    Ozimoron  said  "Otherwise he'll release the tapes."

    I asked but got no answer  Who will release tapes ?

    Will Trump release tapes ?  will Putin release tapes ?

    I asked the question because I didn't know "who will release tapes"

     

    I suppose on further reading he meant Putin will release "embarrassing" tapes of Donald Trump if Trump does not stop funding NATO and the war in Ukraine ?

    Linking AJ is another fine example of the same - it's not really a balanced source when referring to these issues. Also, I believe it was 'outlawed' on these discussion a while back.

    I asked someone else on another thread about this   but maybe you have a list of "approved" news sources ?

  4. I'm surprised, would have thought a company like that would do very well  considering the abundance of sunlight in Thailand  and the perpetual hype about "green energy"

    I wonder if they  import the actual solar cells from China and just assemble them into panels here  but the Chinese could do it even cheaper including shipping ?  or are they actually producing the silicon wafers at their factory ?

    Corruption in Ukraine! OMG,

     

    Up till the Russian "special military operation"   the "western" media carried many articles about Ukraine being the most corrupt country in Europe  but now "we"  (the west)  must send them billions of Dollars,Euros and Pounds of aid and weapons with no end date... until Russia is "defeated"  

    or until the last Ukrainian or until the last NATO soldier or until Mutually Assured Destruction ?

     

    Remember War is Peace.
