that's nice

putin doing some more exercises near ukraine border

if he invades eastern ukraine no matter how limited then ukraine needs to fight back. too bad it will be a big war but if putin gets to lop off another chunk of ukraine unopposed sooner or later the baltic republics will be next and they're members of NATO which means even bigger war


If its any consolation, Russia has granted Ukraine's request to use Russia airspace next to the border and observe troops training and exercises.


I get this image in my head that has some Russian admiral saying, "here, we'll let you watch us practice how we're going to invade you muhahah."

Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

But considering fact that Ukraine has almost nothing to guarantee credit, uh.

Please explain to me how $20 billions worth of "legendary Scythean gold" and jewellery survived 23 years of Ukrainian corruption?


Why do you need to use gold when you have enough money to steal from people? (:

Why would anyone bother stealing money from the budget when there is this local Fort Knox that people of Ukraine dont even know exists?

As a baseline for comparison, what's the annual murder rate in Ukraine for the past several years?
Great read: http://shorensteincenter.org/news-coverage-2016-general-election/ great book on democracy: http://press.princeton.edu/titles/10671.html zlefin is grumpier due to long term illness. Ignoring some users.

Because gold is stable and better to steal money in currency and other resources first imo.

Also, it's a lot harder to inconspicuously steal a few tons of gold when compared to purely virtual currency.

gold is a currency strategic reserve so you'd want to put it in a secure place. the ownership is still ukrainian but obviously you dno't want to leave it in a vault that could be physically taken over.

Yatsenyuk:

I would like to thank all but 1 UNSC member for the support of the territorial integrity of my country. We adhere to all bilateral and multilateral agreements. Crimea is part of Ukraine, we will never recognize of any handmade, falsified (etc) referendum.

Tbh the amount of propaganda coming from Russia right now is scary. With all the re-nationalization and oppression Russia is back on it's tracks to the last century. I don't know what they have planned for the future but the effort they're putting into swaying the public's opinion towards militaristic actions is really concerning.

Just for guys who don't know how it works here.

After blocking, owners of hostings can go to court and appeal.
Sites starts to work after it before final decision and usually after deleting 1-2 materials (or just hiding them from main page) they're getting unblocked and start to work again.

Russian Airlines Divert Flights to Bypass Ukraine
MOSCOW, March 13 (RIA Novosti) – Russian airlines, including the country's flag carrier Aeroflot, have begun changing their flight routes to bypass Ukraine, according to publicly available data.
According to flight information obtained from the Flight Radar 24 air traffic website, an Aeroflot flight to Simferopol on Ukraine’s breakaway Crimean peninsula on Wednesday flew a longer route across Russian territory instead of its usual, more direct route through Ukraine.
Aeroflot confirmed the reports on its Twitter feed, saying that “a decision has been made to change flight routes.”
By late afternoon Aeroflot stock had fallen nearly 10 percent on the news of the changes.
Flights by other Russian airlines, such as Transaero and NordWind, also appeared to be avoiding entering Ukrainian airspace, while the flight paths of foreign carriers, such as Turkish Airlines, remain unchanged.

An aviation industry source said Russian air carriers follow recommendations from Russian aviation authorities, although a spokesman for the country's civil aviation watchdog declined to comment on the matter.
Routes of Aeroflot flights to Turkey’s Istanbul and Antalya on Thursday were also changed to bypass Ukraine.

And you would consider that "normal"? Honest question.

Usually they block something with porn/cp or something like that, for example we have Lurkmore (kind of wiki for lulz), so they banned it for 1 day for getting photos of cp in some random article.

It could be worse but we did achieved ability to appeal year ago or something like that after first time this law entered the world, because blackouts aren't good.

Can't say that i like this ability, but usually they don't abuse their power.

What about this case? What is your thought about the fact that they try to silence opposition (yet again) with "dirty" measures?
