Let me correct you. There is a sham referendum taking place in occupied regions NOT just the Donbass region. The outcome of that vote which is in many places is being undertaken with armed guards and officials knocking door to door is obvious but should not be confused with legitimate or trust worthy. Your "I take no sides" remark does not equate.

You've had credible links and credible sources, for someone who thinks others get their flight ticket info from Youtube channels then you've embarrassed yourself enough, I won't facilitate that any further for you. "majority of pilots in airlines are reserve officers who have been trained at the military departments of flight schools, or privates who have served in the army." Most of all, airlines fear that they will call not only pilots, but also technical specialists, IT specialists and employees of commercial divisions. The departure of one or more people can slow down or paralyze all work

No walls built here just news which you were unaware. You can speculate as much as you like

What you mean n the parellel world of the national Russian media Kommersant that is just one source.

What youtube channels? CNN? Have no idea what you're on about do you even know? You could try https://aviationsourcenews.com/news/russian-airline-staff-receive-conscription-notices-following-putins-mobilisation-order/ https://simpleflying.com/aeroflot-russian-airlines-conscription-notices/ https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russian-airlines-staff-start-receive-conscription-notices-kommersant-2022-09-23/ Get back to me

Meanwhile from the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine: "Today is a good day for #UAarmy and a bad day for russian aviation. Su-25, two Su-30, Su-34 have gone to <deleted> themselves." Plenty of vids on twitter showing the planes hit.

You're first mistake is assuming people get flight info from youtube channels. Your second is not keeping up with the news. These flight resumptions were announced back in early August and it actually starts from 30th Oct. However since then its been announced that 50% - 80% of Aeroflot staff are being called up for mobilization into cannon fodder at Ukraine, so good luck on those booking these flights and the pending cancellations that will occur.

Here's one way to stop them flying out, call up all the airline staff ???? Half the workers of Russia's biggest airline may be forced to join the army by Vladimir Putin, report says Vladimir Putin may force at least half the workers of Russia's biggest airline to join the army, the Kommersant newspaper reported on Friday. Staff of at least five airlines, including Aeroflot, received conscription notices within a day of Putin's speech. Sources told the newspaper that between 50% and 80% of Aeroflot's employees could be ordered to the frontlines of the conflict with Ukraine. A source close to Aeroflot said that over half the staff at three of the group's airlines, including Rossiya and Pobeda, could be called up, per the report. https://www.yahoo.com/news/half-workers-russias-biggest-airline-111205548.html

Just did a little reading up on this. Although out of the 4 subs there's always a minimum of one out on patrol, 2 others are also armed and ready although they would not normally go out on patrol during a time of crisis as there's no need. By keeping one submarine on patrol at all times, the UK avoids the risk of sending incorrect or misleading signals to a potential adversary at times of heightened alert. However the other two can quickly aim their missiles and fire. The fourth sub is normally in maintenance. https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200506/cmselect/cmdfence/986/98605.htm https://www.medact.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/THE-UK-TRIDENT-MISSILE-SYSTEM-FINAL.pdf

Couldn't resist this meme I saw yesterday for that last statement of yours: They will feed the hungry Ukrainian Cannons. HIMARS table for two On a more serious note, Putin wants to instill fear, he did this right at the beginning of the invasion with his first nuclear threats. This latest is a sure sign he's in serious trouble. Nuclear weapons are first and foremost a psychological weapon to use as a tactical threat as he is doing although he adds rather lamely this is not a bluff. A sure sign it is a bluff. Its been reported the US has sent some private messages to the Kremlin with some serious warnings to them. The only thing that should be happening now is arming Ukraine even more so and more rapidly to deal with this mobilization and get back their country.

Since when was full mobilization, partial? First 300,000, that went up to 1 million as reported by Russian media, now 1.2 million being called up. Russia to conscript 1.2 million people Russian authorities plan to conscript 1.2 million people for their “partial mobilization,” Meduza has learned from a source close to one of the country’s federal ministries. Additionally, a source close to Moscow’s leadership told Meduza that up to 16,000 people from the capital are slated to be drafted. https://meduza.io/en/feature/2022/09/23/russia-to-conscript-up-to-1-2-million-people

Russian soldiers have raped and tortured children in Ukraine, a UN panel said. Victims of sexual violence by Russian troops ranged in age from 4 to 82. “There are examples of cases where relatives were forced to witness the crimes." “We were struck by the large number of executions in the areas we visited” New UN hard hitting report: https://web.archive.org/web/20220923124045/https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/23/world/europe/russia-ukraine-war-crimes-united-nations.html https://www.ohchr.org/en/statements/2022/09/update-chair-independent-international-commission-inquiry-ukraine-51st-session

Ukraine has not changed its game. It will continue to strike where it has been struck from.

Its already attacked Russia directly, Belgorod: First Ukrainian airstrike on Russian territory. It has of course also carried out some very successful attacks in Crimea, which Russia also claims is its territory

This talk of 300,000 to be drafted is total bull. This is a full mobilization the Russian people know it. The decree Putin signed apparently has a classified section mentioning 1 million. "The independent Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta Europe reported that a source in the presidential administration said Russia was seeking to draft more than 1 million people" ‘It’s a 100% mobilisation’: day one of Russia’s drive to build its army Summons delivered to eligible men at midnight. Schoolteachers pressed into handing out draft notices. Men given an hour to pack their things and appear at draft centres. Women sobbing as they sent their husbands and sons off to fight in Russia’s war in Ukraine. The first full day of Russia’s first mobilisation since the second world war produced emotional showdowns at draft centres and even signs of protest, while it appears Russia could be considering far more than the 300,000 new conscripts claimed by the defence minister, Sergei Shoigu. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/sep/22/russia-mobilisation-ukraine-war-army-drive Protesters are being threatened with 15 years or some are being taken as conscripts. In Buryatia, college students literally taken away from their classes to be conscripted and sent to war. Insane.

Yes Thai people believe in Karma but that's nothing to do with Russia starting the Crimean war

Wow, Mynamar, Cambodia, East Timor check their genocide record

Yet on the 2nd March 2022 to the world Thailand voted to condemn Russia’s aggression in Ukraine which deplored Russia's invasion of Ukraine and demanded a full withdrawal of Russian forces. Hypocritical actions by Thailand when money is concerned.

Correct, your imagination ????

Not sure, it seems as its part of the investigation, this from yesterday: Deutsche Bank’s Trump Exposure Dropped 87% in a Matter of Weeks The real estate company of former US President Donald Trump that month repaid two loans worth at total of $295 million to Germany’s largest lender, according to a lawsuit filed Wednesday by New York Attorney General Letitia James. James says Trump made “false and misleading” financial statements to Deutsche Bank to get better terms on his loans, resulting in interest rate savings between $85 million and $150 million for him. Trump has repeatedly denied wrongdoing. “The bank takes its legal obligations seriously, including appropriately responding to authorized investigations and proceedings,” said a spokesman for Deutsche Bank. He declined to comment on details of the relationship with the Trump Organization. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-09-22/deutsche-bank-s-trump-exposure-dropped-87-in-a-matter-of-weeks

Here is the reality: Countries that refuse to take a side in Russia’s war in Ukraine are “complicit” with Moscow’s “new imperialism,” French President Emmanuel Macron told the U.N. General Assembly Tuesday in an impassioned speech. “Those who are silent today are serving — whether against their will or secretly with a certain complicity — the cause of a new imperialism,” Macron said. In some of his strongest comments since the beginning of the war, Macron said Russia’s aggression against Ukraine marked a “return to the age of imperialism and colonies” and said the world faced a choice between “war and peace.” Perhaps a reminder also from Zelensky at his UN speech:

Ah just the narrative the Kremlin wants, losing on the battlefield so they have nothing else. Quick lets get the west and Ukraine to negotiate immediately by giving Putin what he wants. Jeez
