Cause it makes them feel important.

Cardiff Philharmonic removes Tchaikovsky performance over Ukraine conflict

Orchestra faces ridicule over decision to remove Tchaikovsky’s 1812 overture

www.theguardian.com

Had nothing to do with Tchaikovsky being Russian but with this particular piece

In fact, three concerts by cardiff philharmonic this year , will include work by Russian composers, including Sergei Prokofiev and Sergei Rachmaninoff.

it was thought inappropriate at the present time, given that this piece is military themed and they come with the sound of a volley of cannon fire.

Listen 15:05 and you will understand why :

So they couldn't have played anything else by Tchaikovsky?
The only reason they will play the other Russian composers is because they were ridiculed for their decision.

Where are Shoigu and Gerasimov?
The architects of the war. Still there or in a Soviet gulag?

Putin's lying again to his people.

Does he think all Russians are just idiots or completely cut off from the world like in the soviet era , that they don't know what is happening outside Russia ?

Just to make it clear.

No , no Russian authors where banned in the west . Orchestras in the west have no intention to stop playing music of Russian composers like Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff ( what serious orchestra would do something like that ? ? ? )

And no , J .K Rowling is NOT " canceled " , in fact the new movie ,Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore , is about to come out this year.

I have only two words to say to you Mr. Putin :


Expecto patronum !

LOL it is a joy to see you in such panick mode. How the tables have turned.

Often Muslims were accused by the same members in this topic for having a victim mentality and what not. Today the pleading and non-stop craving hasn't gone unnoticed in this specific topic.

Didn't members here used to taunt with you reap what you sow? Just look at them now.

They will be very flexible with India.. remember that Biden administration said that their main target is China.. now they are just trying to weaken Russia as an intermediate phase..

Looks like Cold War Jihad is halal all over again. It is ridiculous how these Western mercenary fanatics are dying to fight in Ukraine.

The reality on the ground. Nevertheless, the Western bloc is already taking measures to decrease dependence on Russian oil and gas. This will take years before the dependence has truly decreased substantially.

What we will see is more cooperation among regional actors now. Russia is going to concentrate on working with China, Iran, Central Asian republics, Pakistan and other regional nations. I think along with China, Russia has every stake to rejuvenate regional trade and cooperation. Russia had a very luxurious position before the Ukraine war. It was picking and choosing trading partners of its liking. It was selling its oil and gas to almost every nation of its liking. That luxury has ended after Ukraine war. Russian Western romance is over. Not necessarily bad news for the region. Russian focus towards regional trade bloc is obviously beneficial for the region.

got to give the Americans credit where credit is due though...

At a time when europe was finally starting to see the US for the parasitic entity it was. and how it was at a minimum a competitor with even macron explecitly saying it when trump was bullying euro countries and treating them like colored people...

They have succesfully fooled the euros into sacrificing their economies, security, and social fabric to advance american geopolitical interests. its the euros who will be suffering from the consequences of this war, not the americans.

Say what you want about american neocons and their "we lied,stole cheated" ideology. Its much superior to whatever the euro sissies have got going on. getting manipulated by washington as a disposable tool.. pathetic.

That's right. USA won, the EU lost.
A few years ago there was a concept of Europe from Lisbon to Vladivostok. Europe from Lisbon to Vladivostok would have bigger potential than USA. So USA did everything to sabotage this concept. To sabotage cooperation between the EU countries and Russia USA founded Banderites coup against democratically elected President of the Ukraine Yanukovych. And USA succeded in sabotaging concept of Europe from Lisbon to Vladivostok.

Well giving up domestic nuclear, coal may be not the brightest idea on earth.

Yes, but coal isnt the best option. Germany was on the way to hydrogen economy 25 years ago. But then in 1998 the idiots take over.

Also the "gas deal" with Quatar is still propaganda at the moment. Cause Quatar says: "Gas deliveries will not happen soon". And this is NOT bad will from Quatar. There are just no gas-tankers to do it.

What have Chechens achieved in Ukraine besides Photo-Op sessions?

What role is Chechnya’s Ramzan Kadyrov playing in Ukraine war?

Chechen forces deployed in Ukraine appear to be more of a ‘PR initiative’ than military utility, analysts say.

True warriors of both Ukraine and Russia are not into Photo-Op sessions.

Have you even bothered listening to the 1812 Overture I attached ?

I doubt that , otherwise you would not make this comment.

Philharmonic schedule are made months in advance , it is not something you pull of your sleeve.

You know they say that God gave each of us two ears but only one mouth. And the reason is that we should listen twice as much as we speak !

Do try to listen this time , i am sure you would figure it out eventually :

Russian forcies (including that from Chechnya) managed to prevent Bandera forces from attacking Donbass Republics. Massive Bandera attack against Donbass Republics was planed for March.
Russian forcies managed to stop US development of nuclear and biological weapons in the territory of the Ukraine.
Russian forcies managed to destroy or incapacitate most of Bandera forcies.
Bear in mind that regime in Kiev declared Bandera "Hero of Ukraine". There are monuments dedicated to this genocidial chauvinist in the Ukraine.

You failed to address my point and observation.

Chechens = Russian PR initiative as noted in the article shared by me.
