i like how the russian people view this nato -russia conflict.. let me quote a line from this article, because it is the exact same as how i see it as a canuck! i admire the russians for this and wish them every success..

"Now our country is at the forefront of the struggle for the establishment of a fair and equitable world order. "

As a Londoner I agree. How things have changed from when I was a young soldier during the Cold war era & now finding myself fully supporting the Russian Federation & with complete respect for their leader, not forgetting real diplomate's such as Lavrov. Contrary to the likes of Biden, Trudeau Cameron and the rest of pitiful Western leader's the list is long, with the exception of Victor Orban.

martin, i just read this article and was reminded of what a house of mirrors the uk has become with regard to the topic of the skripals...

Seconded.

Speaking of Russia's people, I see that Belousov is wearing a suit, whereas I don't recall seeing his predecessor (Shoigu) other than in a uniform. Perhaps that's an indication of how Belousov perceives his role or wishes it to be perceived.

Incidentally, the person seated next to Belousov might pass for Sergei Rachmaninoff's great grandson.

Shoigu wore a suit on occasions that called for it, and in his new role we'll see him attired that way most often. Belousov will also be fitted with a uniform for certain occasions.

NATO's signaled its next move by activating its Terrorist Foreign Legion and sending it to attack Russian soft targets. I expect to see more NATO MIC facilities suffer "accidents."

I rather doubt any DPRK troops will appear as Putin said directly they aren't needed. Now African trainees as Marat alluded to are something else, ought to be rather visible, but there's been zero talk. As I said once before, Russia needs to provide robust defensive emplacements to protect its LNG assets in Yamal and all of its northern coast shipbuilding facilities.

Marat's latest is mirrored here, https://eastcalling.substack.com/p/dumb-and-dumber-nato-and-the-ukrainian?r=2wmtxd&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=true

There was once a show called the Friday Funnies. This would qualify.
