Pussy Riot’s Nadya Tolokonnikova: ‘You cannot play nice with Putin. He is insane. He might open fire on his own people’

I would prefer not to mix pussies and politics. These 2 areas are totally different.

Pitin wants Ukraine as Neutral or Pro- Russia Buffer State possibly Partitioned West / East. 

No. Vlad has recently said that Ukraine can be deprived of statehood. e.g. it will be a part of Russia. Vlad's appetite is increasing.

I think you should help Russian tourists. We all know that your countries need cheap gas and oil desperately. Let`s make a friendly step forward!

Biden already said what exactly Russia is doing now - "re-establishing the former Soviet Union". This is similar to, e.g., returning of the state of Texas back to the USA.

Of course, Putin could has acted much more gentle. He could, for example, return the rebellious region of Ukraine by adjudgment. But he prefer to act emphatically rude with gestures like this list of unfriendly countries. Because he wants to quarrel with the West. This will allow him to become a true Eastern leader.

I got to say watching the Refugees arriving in Poland,Romania etc. Well done to these countries and how well they are dealing with those fleeing from the murders . 

You should also thank Russia. Because most of refugees are accepted by Russia.

I think if i was going to sign up I would request an ak47 or a grenade launcher, not a cocktail, but too old for that now, didn't the west supply enough weapons?.

When Vlad doesn't like any decision of the West, he expresses his opinion by sending Sumbarines with nukes. This is what happened a week ago or so. That`s why I am sure, there will be no weapons strong enough as to spoil Vlad`s breakfast.

Ukrainian embassy will soon become a Soviet Embassy. Just wait a few months.

So these Russians who have had their vacations ruined need to go home and do something about it.  

Do exactly WHAT? Man, you should know that the point of no return has already been passed. There is no such choice as "just stop the war now". Because stopping the war means capitulation. You can't expect any Russian to want capitulation for his country.

One of those is very possible

 

"In the long-term, international justice has a very good record of eventually getting those that they target."

If Mr Putin was charged with war crimes and he travelled to a country that operates universal jurisdiction, that nation would be obliged to detain him, Mr Jordash said.

Tribunal is a dish of the winner in any war. I see you are sure the West (not Russian and China) will win the war. But some people think that it would be much better to concentrate efforts to win this war first.

There is no problem for a refugee to get help. Russia is accepting refugees from Ukraine - about 10000 people every day.
The main problem is that the refugees are not allowed to leave their cities. Because they are the only reason why the Russians have not yet bombed Ukrainian cities with heavy bombs.

No. Ukraine and the world insists that Russia surrender, and Putin is held for war crimes. A reasonable and simple solution. 

It was a bluff from the very beginning, from 1991. Cutting off territories from a nuclear country, the USSR. And now it's just the time when this bluff is being exposed.

An interview with Peter Hitches on LBC was pointing out just that referring to past history and how different things could have been in the world today if the attitude and treatment of Russia by the west had been friendly.

There is a simple reason why the attitude and treatment of Russia by the west is similar to that of Lybia or Iraq. The US does not believe that Russia can use its nuclear weapons because kids of Russian elite are in the US universities. So, a clear demonstration is absolutely needed in this case. In the state duma of Russia it was suggested by the colonel E. Fedorov that bombing the Nevada test site (with ZERO victims) would be the best demonstration. But the main problem is that the Russian society is not angry enough to approve this decision. To make the Russian society hate the US to the necessary degree, the Ukrainian campaign is absolutely needed. Almost every single day Mr. Lavrov explains to Russian people that Ukraine is remotely ruled by the US. About 2-3 months later every family in Russia will have war victims and Mr. Lavrov will keep explaining who is the reason. Putin thinks that the Russian society will then be angry enough for the hard collision with the West.

nope, it was certainly not OK for the USA to do what it did in Irak, not in my opinion, and a number of US leaders should have been tried for war crimes.

 

but this is completely different.

The phrase "this is completely different" (For googling In Russian: "Вы не понимаете, это другое!") has become a meme in Russia which is widely used to emphasize the hypocrisy of the West.

These are 1991 borders, those decided at the collapse of the USSR.

Have you heard of Crimea? People say that the referendum cannot be used to separate Crimea from Ukraine. Because this referendum did not take into account the opinions of the other Ukrainians that live outside the Crimea.
And what about the so-called collapse of the USSR. The referendum in Ukraine cannot be used to separate Ukraine from USSR for exactly the same reason. You should ask the opinions of the other soviet people to do this, according to the law of the USSR. This had never happened. So one day Vlad will tell you that he cancel all the illegal decisions of 1991. Just wait a little more time.

Years ago when my Mom was in a nursing home, there was a new supervising nurse on her wing, I made the mistake of making smalltalk and saying "you are Russian, correct ?"....the Ukrainian nurse was about to put me in intensive care....

This is like to say "you are Chinese, correct ?" 20 years ago. And the nurse from the Hong Kong would about to put you in intensive care. But the West had no choice. Hong Kong was returned to China.

Repatriation is nothing but a smokescreen to Putin hanging on to the distorted ideology that Ukrainian and Russian are one and the same people.

Just results of the WW2. 100M lives were paid for the new world borders and we have a signature of Mr Roosevelt approving that Ukraine is ours and not an independent state. Looks like you want to revise WW2 borders. You are welcome to pay 100M people lives for them one more time.

Today is a good day for Vlad. He has repatriated a very big city of Kherson in Ukraine. Russians are very happy. Looks like the city of Odessa will be the next.

Thank you, Thailand.
Hope that repatriation of Taiwan by our Chinese friends will also be accepted very warmly.
Russians are in a very good mood today after repatriation of Kherson City.

had planned 2 days for that?

Vlad needs war to get rid of some annoying western things like 'free press' or 'democracy'. War gives him unlimited power to do everything he want. Yesterday he closed the most influental opposition media Echo of Moscow and Dozhd. He needs about 1 year to wash out everything which smells like the West. So I think the war will not stop for a year or so.

Just f'n kidding of course, I hear your Führer is not that amused, had planned 2 days for that? Well, tough teats then ...

No. Originally, in December 2021, our president wanted to talk directly to the USA. But the leader of the Communist Party G. Zyuganov criticized this initiative. In the Russian parliament he told that we should make a party in Ukraine instead of operation 'Nevada'. So it was decided to visit Ukraine first. The main reason for this is the opinion of the Russian society. Russian people were very offended after the burning of pro-Russian activists in Odessa on May 2, 2014. So society wants a military tribunal for this. The President decided to please them.

And if NOT you're happy to help 'return' Taiwan ... interesting relationship, whose the biatch of whom here exactly ...?

Sure. Chinese friends need a lot of warships for the operation of repatriating Taiwan. And Russia needs to overcome sanctions. So, we can help each other.

Can't see any sense in these efforts. Our president, Vlad, has a lot of friends in China. They will happy to sell everything we need. And what if not? In this case we will happy to help to return Taiwan. Submarines for rent? OK ????
