looks like he's staying where he belongs, Ruzzia Russia’s Ambassador to Thailand Evgeny Tomikhin on Wednesday denied news that Russian President Vladimir Putin would attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) Summit, saying that Moscow will make the best decision on this issue later. "We will make the best decision on whether Russia will send a representative to attend the summit or not," he said, adding that the decision would be made when the summit is near. https://www.nationthailand.com/world/asia-pacific/40020969

Biden has also said Putin's a war criminal, more than once: “You may remember I got criticised for calling Putin a war criminal,” Biden told reporters at the Fort McNair army post in Washington. “Well, the truth of the matter – we saw it happen in Bucha – he is a war criminal.”

Yes, history made a success. Asteroid's path altered in NASA's first test of planetary defense system Oct 11 (Reuters) - The spacecraft NASA deliberately crashed into an asteroid last month succeeded in nudging the rocky moonlet from its natural path into a faster orbit, marking the first time humanity has altered the motion of a celestial body, the U.S. space agency announced on Tuesday. The $330 million proof-of-concept mission, which was seven years in development, also represented the world's first test of a planetary defense system designed to prevent a potential doomsday meteorite collision with Earth. https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/science/nasa-says-dart-mission-succeeded-altering-asteroids-trajectory-2022-10-11/

Context? US president tells CNN he believes Putin’s objectives in Ukraine invasion were irrational but that he would not use a nuclear weapon. Joe Biden has said he believes Vladimir Putin is a “rational actor” who badly misjudged his prospects of occupying Ukraine, but does not believe he would resort to using a tactical nuclear weapon.

I doubt he'll come, too busy orchestrating indiscriminate shelling in Ukraine cities.

You trivial attitude to this is shameful. This is an imperialistic land grab driven by genocidal rhetoric, reinforced with mass war crimes and murders by Russians. Evoking the dead to try and back up your point shows just how low you will go. The Ukrainians that remain there are doing so for one reason and one reason alone, that being it is their land and they want to remain, fight or die for it not give it up. Those that left, the women, children left for safety until they can return to their own homes, not to Russian territory. If you've not worked this out yet then this is on you alone and your ignorance of the facts.

Couple of bullet points from the latest ISW report also confirming what GCHQ head said about dwindling ammo: * Russian forces cannot supply mobilized forces, likely due to years of supply theft by contract soldiers and commanders. * The October 10 Russian attacks wasted some of Russia’s dwindling precision weapons against civilian targets, as opposed to militarily significant targets. https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-october-10

No signs Russia is preparing to use nuclear weapon, says GCHQ boss The head of GCHQ has said the UK spy agency has not seen any indicators that Russia is preparing to use a tactical nuclear weapon in or around Ukraine despite recent bellicose statements from Vladimir Putin. Jeremy Fleming, speaking on Tuesday morning, said it was one of GCHQ’s tasks to monitor whether the Kremlin was taking any of the preliminary steps needed before a tactical weapon was being made ready. Experts say it takes time to move such warheads out of storage and it should be possible for a spy agency such as GCHQ or its US counterpart, the NSA, to monitor such movements. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/oct/11/russia-use-nuclear-weapons-gchq-putin

Never asked him, no need to as the UN made it clear what was happening. Who said there was, Putin? LOL On January 27, 2022, the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights released its most recent estimate of the victims of the Donbass conflict from 2014 to December 31, 2021. The famous figure of 14,000 casualties, often quoted by pro-Russian comments, comes from this document. In fact, the U.N. estimate is between 14,200 and 14,400 victims. By no means were these victims all “killed by the Ukrainians.” According to the U.N., 10,900 victims were soldiers, of which 4,400 were Ukrainians and 6,500 pro-Russian combatants of or on behalf of the separatist pseudo-republics. Civilian victims were between 3,400 and 3,500. The latter were in turn not all victims of attacks and of drones and rockets launched by Ukraine against the pseudo-republics. In fact, a part died in the portions of the oblasts of Luhansk and Donetsk that remained under Ukrainian control during attacks by separatists. The U.N. report also notes that 8.8% of all civilian victims come from a single incident, which happened on July 17, 2014, when Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was shot by a missile.

US going to send more to. Biden promises Ukraine ‘advanced air defense systems’ after Russian missile strikes President Joe Biden spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday after a deluge of Russian missiles targeted cities across Ukraine, condemning the strikes and pledging continued US security assistance “including advanced air defense systems.” The White House did not specify which air defense systems Biden discussed with Zelensky, but the United States previously committed to providing Ukraine with National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems. NASAMS would be capable of engaging Russian cruise missiles. Biden, the statement said, “also underscored his ongoing engagement with allies and partners to continue imposing costs on Russia, holding Russia accountable for its war crimes and atrocities, and providing Ukraine with security, economic, and humanitarian assistance.” https://edition.cnn.com/2022/10/10/politics/biden-zelensky-advanced-air-defense-systems/index.html

With early gains now reversed the cost to Russian equipment and people is staggering. War in Ukraine: Russia's forces are exhausted, says GCHQ head Ukraine is turning the tide against "exhausted" Russian forces, the head of Britain's GCHQ intelligence agency will say in a speech on Tuesday. Despite the missile attacks on targets across Ukraine on Monday, Sir Jeremy Fleming will claim Moscow is running out of ammunition. "We know - and Russian commanders on the ground know - that their supplies and munitions are running out," https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-63207771

The Kyiv Klitschko glass bridge turned out to be stronger than Putin's sacred Crimean bridge.....lol

NATO never invaded Ukraine or committed mass war crimes raping and murdering civilians and quote my full post in future

Lukashenko says Belarus and Russia to deploy joint military group Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has said Belarus and Russia will deploy a joint military task force in response to what he called an aggravation of tension on the country’s western borders, according to the state-run Belta news agency. Lukashenko said on Monday the two countries had started pulling forces together two days ago, apparently after the explosion on a bridge linking Russia to the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed in 2014. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/10/10/lukashenko-says-belarus-and-russia-to-deploy-joint-military-group This was also mentioned on BBC live

Here's another idea, how about the war monger Putin gets the F out of Ukraine instead of cowardly attacks against civilians

Indiscriminate Russian strikes are a war crime, EU says More reaction from Western allies of Ukraine now, as the European Union describes the "indiscriminate" Russian attacks on civilians in Ukraine as amounting to a "war crime". The European Commission describes the missile strikes being seen in Kyiv and other cities as "barbaric and cowardly". Foreign Affairs spokesman Peter Stano condemns the "heinous" attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure in the "strongest possible terms". BBC source

Reports from BBC said the latest count from the Ukraine Ministry of defense was 75 missiles but they shot down 41 of them. However that still left over 30 landing and causing carnage and destruction. No tactical reason for this, just pure terror that coincides also with the new commander for Russian forces in Ukraine General Sergey Surovikin taking charge after the Crimea Bridge attack.

What utter misinformation you spew, this was never about NATO and certainly not about Boris: As war began, Putin rejected a Ukraine peace deal recommended by aide But, despite earlier backing the negotiations, Putin made it clear when presented with Kozak's deal that the concessions negotiated by his aide did not go far enough and that he had expanded his objectives to include annexing swathes of Ukrainian territory, the sources said. The upshot: the deal was dropped. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/exclusive-war-began-putin-rejected-ukraine-peace-deal-recommended-by-his-aide-2022-09-14/ President Zelensky: 'Ukraine won't join NATO to stop the war with Russia' In order to find peace with Russia, president Zelensky is willing to reject NATO https://www.marca.com/en/lifestyle/world-news/2022/03/23/623a883fca47418c4d8b45f6.html

The terrorists attacking Kyiv, indiscriminate missile strikes, plenty of vids on twitter, childrens playground also hit Ukraine war: BBC journalist ducks as explosions hit central Kyiv The BBC's correspondent in Kyiv, Hugo Bachega, was delivering a news report when several explosions happened in the centre of Ukraine's capital city. The BBC has spoken to Hugo and confirmed that he and the camera crew are safe. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-63197951

Reading Russian media then obviously you're going to get false figures. The UN is where those Russian outlets got that information on Donbas but the unfiltered actual information is this: On January 27, 2022, the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights released its most recent estimate of the victims of the Donbass conflict from 2014 to December 31, 2021. The famous figure of 14,000 casualties, often quoted by pro-Russian comments, comes from this document. In fact, the U.N. estimate is between 14,200 and 14,400 victims. By no means were these victims all “killed by the Ukrainians.” According to the U.N., 10,900 victims were soldiers, of which 4,400 were Ukrainians and 6,500 pro-Russian combatants of or on behalf of the separatist pseudo-republics.

Some other choice words from that same speech, his lawyers must want to gag him...............lol but then they seem as incompetent as he is. Trump referring to the NARA: "These are radical left lunatics, they lose documents, they plant documents, let’s see, is there a book on nuclear destruction or building of a nuclear weapon, let’s put that book in with Trump. No they plant documents, they have a terrible reputation." "I had a small number of boxes in storage… There is no crime. They should give me immediately back everything they have taken from me because it’s mine." Links from twitter video.

Pointless having a debate with you on this subject because it also involves Trump and as soon as that's done you cry off topic

Yes I noticed. An inter twined deal that Trump messed up and Biden had to carry through

Then I suggest you follow your own advice

There's a full timeline in that article that makes things pretty clear in fact Trump went onto to say: "In a released statement, Trump criticizes Biden’s Sept. 11 withdrawal deadline saying, “we can and should get out earlier.” He concludes, “Getting out of Afghanistan is a wonderful and positive thing to do. I planned to withdraw on May 1st, and we should keep as close to that schedule as possible.”
