The part about Western companies leaving temporarily is interesting, they may actually believe that. Putins government clearly doesn't comprehend how badly their actions have been received in the west, and how toxic doing business with Russia has become. After re-evaluating the risk profile of conducting business with or in Russia, Western companies started to suspend or halt operations even before any sanctions were inacted, and they are also mindful of the optics of continuing to do business with Russia.Complete and utter delusion

With the size of the write-downs and Putins new laws to allow nationization of Western owned business assets in Russia, it's going to be a long time before Western companies return, even if Putin is somehow ousted from the Kremlin.
That guy is, for the lack of word, a moron
The Ukrainians will get 1000 Switchblade 300s and 100 Switchblade 600s
According to the Russians, the survivors of a marine battalion surrendered en mass in Mariupol. The numbers are said to 250. Considering that they are said to have suffered 50% casualties, that seems to make sense numerically.
There's feeding sheeple and then there's reality. Despite so-called sanctions on Rusi oil and financial assets:
- Oil still flowing from Rus to US. Search it. tankers are continuously travelling from Rus to US, some via Canada:
- Rusi money still being released to creditors to whom Rus is making debt payments:
- Canada banned Rusi oil imports, which they were not importing anyways since 2019.
- Europe still getting fuel from Rus:
- Rus bringing US astronaut back & accepting Canadian to ISS:
- EU/US/UK despite hollow sympathies & crocodile tears, refusing to accept Ukrainians whole heartedly (1)(2)(3). May be they came across clips of UA street justice system!!
- Ruble is back almost to it's 24-Feb level (when invasion started), after a knee-jerk drop.
Because they don't want Ukraine to actually win.Why don't Germany send all their Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine if they want to fight a proxy war with Russia?
Not difficult to drive a Leo. There are official Youtube videos from the German armed forces. Even women with a driver license can drive the tank. Although the new Leo is the most heaviest tank ever.
