Russian parliament passes bill on recognition of self-proclaimed Donbass "republics"

Putin had to do what was best for Russia. I would have done the same considering in the north NATO is already touching Russian border and looking at Ukraine's geography and size it would've been suicidal not to do anything by sitting back until Ukraine was part of NATO. US/EU/Ukraine bought this on themselves. Russia is just trying its best to prevent being surrounded on all sides by NATO -- we saw how they tried to use Georgia, there not like Pakistan.

I fully support his actions.

The whole point of nato strategy’s in going to the east was to stop any future unnecessary wars by Russia like in Ukraine. Or aggression on others, putin has proven this any lots of places he has annexed. Nato being there stops idiots like putin starting wars
 
Putin has lost his mind. Russian backwardness at its finest. He’s completely out of touch with reality.



2013 Russian GDP- $2.2T
2021 Russian GDP- $1.5T

AFAIK Russian GDP in Roubles increased, but at the same time Rouble weakened against US Dollar. Both things are IMO good for Russia. Weaker Rouble promote exports and decrease imports.

Electricity production also increased.

No, the idiot NATO being there starts more problems than it solves. Had NATO not expanded and left buffer zones after USSR dissolution no need for Putin to take such measures. Fine few ex-USSR states joined NATO the Russian's did nothing in the 1990s and early 2000s as it was miniscule and manageable by giving them a few inches, but they started going by the foot within the last decade.
 
What was the urgency of usa staying in Afghanistan any longer for, they were not a threat to Americans. It was Afghanistan Army that lost the battle and war. When USA left. 2014 was lightly on Russia this time round Russia is going to be hit very hard

Lame excuse. So why USA invaded Afghanistan in the first place ?
 
USA just lost war against Afghanistan. You can brag as much as you want how strong USA is but your bragging won't change anything.

Anyway USA is going to impose sanctions so we will see how Russia will cope with new rounds of sanctions. Russia coped very well with many rounds of US sanctions imposed after 2014.

Jesus.
"Lost".
Politically.
What happened to Saddams Army, 2 times?
Even when the Iraqis would have been payed and fed, the Murricans would have crushed them as they did.
The Problem is, the Americans aren't the Nazis some people try to potray them here, otherwise, not many Iraqis and Afghans would be left ^^
Only countries who are CONVENTIONALLY a problem in case of US "all-in" attack (with producing more AFV, Planes, Ships etc. and taking acceptance of military casualties) would be China and Russia.
Otherwise, all nuclear nations are "safe", cause of nukes.

To get OsamaBinBathing, to annoy Russia/former Soviet Republics and Iran.
That's why.
Oh and because that is it what the strongest nations on earth always did.
Persians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, "Byzantines" (Eastern Romans), French, English, Russians and so forth.
What do you think why Russia is so large?
Because they invited the people and were selling flowers or what...

So what USA achieved by occupying Afghanistan for 20 years other that wasting US taxpayers money ?

(...)
To get OsamaBinBathing, (...)

Correct me if I'm wrong here but AFAIK Afghanistan was ready to judge Osama and asked USA for evidence of his alleged crimes but USA refused.


Putin is getting annihilated on Twitter for how crazy he sounds.

Unlike "great" US President Biden

The prime objective was to get a foot hold in that prime real estate, in the north is Russia and China, On the South is Iran and Pak. Absolute a perfect location to send terrorist and wreck havoc to these countries. But US does what it is known for decades, run with tail between the legs.

I agree with You. That's why I said that USA lost war against Afghanistan.

But according to USA propaganda USA didn't lost war against Afghanistan and since USA didn't lost then nobody is to blame for losing. Very convenient for USA politicians, not so much for US taxpayers.

There you have the answer, on the priority list was to get a foothold in the region.
And never the goal to eliminate Afghans or something like that, otherwise, no Afghans in Afghanistan anymore.
A example of GREAT restraint.
Saddam, Gaddafi, Assad etc. troops would have massacred the crowds :D
German NAZIS too.
Soviets/Russians too.
Otherwise they don't learn.
They learn it or are going to heaven, easy as it.
Not that I don't understand them, I would be angry too as ordinary Iraqi but that's not the point.
The point is that most soldiers from the armies over the world would shoot you a 3rd eye or minimum 2nd arsehole, you can pull shit like this really against Americans/Europeans mostly and get away with it. ;)
Murricans had situations like these in the thousands and mostly avoid to shoot these guys.
Americans are stupid to go in under most suspicious reasons (lying to their own, otherwise they wouldn't join the adventure), have not clear defined goals but only a approximate frame and then don't know how to pull it if things don't work as expected - even secret services warned of this/that consequence, sectarian war if Saddam his cronies are dethroned as an example.
America is becoming a 3rd world shithole.
Then another Moloch will come and take the place, like always in history.

Don't compare Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia. Nazi Germany was genocidial, Soviet Russia was not. Nazi Germany killed millions of Polish People, while population of Poland rose from 23 million in year 1946 to 38 million in year 1989 when we were allied with Soviet Union.
 
Russian backwardness on full display for the world.

Prepare for the Russian economy to be annihilated
