Joules Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) 555! Thailand's Faustian deal blowing up. Neutral, huh. Now you Thai's can take care of all your stranded rubleless Russian friends. No sympathy from me. And to all you apologists that say that Putin is not the fault of THESE Russians, I say that every citizen is responsible for its leaders.

Old Sleepy Joe may dither a bit but won't do anything; the EU won't do anything as it may mean it will affect trade; the UK will shout a bit but are too weak to have any effect; Japan will condemn them but is as weak as the UK, USA, and EU! Thailand and all the African countries that are beholden to China won't speak out as they've sold themselves to China! China has taken over as the main manufacturer in the world -- our manufacturing bases have been destroyed due to the inability to compete with cheaper prices -- and greed and lack of forethought by our governments! We can't object (much) to China's invasion of Taiwan other than apply some wishy-washy sanctions as we rely on them too heavily for their goods! Bring nuclear weapons into the mix,will stop chinas ambitions in a second,just as Ukraine would have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know EU is still buying russian gas. So can I ask you do you think EU still finance Putin's affairs because it cant let their people get a little bit cold and thus makes you putin supporter as well? In case If you dont support, could you show a picture of yourself where you protest against EU buying russian gas/oil otherwise it makes you as guilty as anyone else, am i right?

Banana7 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Not only is the Russian Ukraine war disrupting Thailand plans to revive the tourism sector, Thailand's "neutral" position on the war, as stated by the Prime Minister, will lead western companies to review their investments in Thailand, and cancel future investments or reduce current investments. Western companies will reduce or stop purchasing Thai products Thailand has shown its colours and now will start to feel the pain of sitting on the fence.

AustinRacing Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Looks like he’s got to come out of retirement. John Rambo. He will single handedly defeat the Russians as he did in Afghanistan. He will then steal a helicopter from the Russians and fly into kremlin, kidnap and carry Putin on one shoulder while firing machine gun in the other back to the chopper. Fly the heavily damaged helicopter and with blood flowing out of countless bullet wounds on his body he manages to crash-land the chopper just on the Ukrainian soil handing Putin to zelensky. Putin is forced to be the dancing partner of zelensky on the Dancing With the Stars II show wearing a red mini skirt. Rambo VII coming soon!

vinny41 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 How Europe is dependent on Russian gas Russia accounts for 65 per cent of Germany’s natural gas imports and almost 40 per cent of the EU’s. https://www.newstatesman.com/chart-of-the-day/2022/02/how-europe-is-dependent-on-russian-gas If the EU wants to move away from their reliance for oil and gas from Russia they need to reverse their decisions on shutting down coal fired power stations and nuclear power stations which isn't going to happen unless there is a change of direction from the EU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
