    Russian banks may issue cards with China's UnionPay as Visa, Mastercard cut links

    VISA is going to lament losing out on a market of 145 million people. Sure, a lot of them are not adults or are too old, and Russia is going to suffer a bit right now, but soon, the markets will normalize and new companies will replace everyone that moved out of Russia. The only place where...

    ‘What Mr. Putin did not want’: U.S. approves $6B tank deal with Poland for 250 M1 Abrams

    Poland was never the target as it is already in the NATO alliance. :lol: But nothing matters more than scaremongering and making new arms sales. Wasn't he Iranian or something living in Poland? Never seen such a pro-Russian Polish person till date.

    Indian Female Students Kidnapped in Ukraine. One Male Student Shot Dead. Other Female Students Get Thrown Out of the Train by Ukrainians

    Ah.. very similar to ours. You guys don't have reservations right? Then how come Pakistani students go out to these countries for studying? In our case, most central & state universities majority seats reserved for certain castes, groups & minorities, thereby increasing the competition for...

    Western sanctions have stranded hundreds of airliners worth an estimated $12 billion🤣😂

    Russia has already banned regular commercial flights in response to the ban of Aeroflot and other Russian carriers, except evacuation flights and special flights. The one thing that would impact Western airlines most would be the trans-atlantic flights from North America/Europe to Asia and back...

    Global Times: Indian netizens swarm to Twitter to support Russia; even more around the world criticize West, US hypocrisy

    Media is free to run whatever it wants. Unless it comes from Press Information Bureau and DD National, it means squat. India's official position is crystal clear.

    Outcry after US senator Lindsey Graham suggests Putin’s assassination

    This is shameful. There is no need to use such a vile language against a sitting leader of another country. Putin is not Adolf Hitler or Shiro Ishi. He is a dictator but nothing even close to the monsters that the West has backed over the years. There has to be some decorum maintained in politics.

    Global Times: Indian netizens swarm to Twitter to support Russia; even more around the world criticize West, US hypocrisy

    At this point we are not going to be able to do a hard pivot. Jumping on the Russian bandwagon means going back to the 1970s, while jumping on the Western bandwagon would be becoming a doormat of ridicule and condescension like Germany, South Korea and Japan. We will forever be a vassal state...

    Western sanctions have stranded hundreds of airliners worth an estimated $12 billion🤣😂

    It is not that simple. Those jets without spares and maintenance parts are useless, unless UAC is able to reverse-engineer those parts rapidly and make them locally to fly. Even then, they won't be able to fly to European countries once the sanctions are lifted in the near future. Why? Because...

    Russia's ruble worth less than 1 cent after West tightens sanctions

    Western media is no different than the Russian one in that case; just that they dress up the topics in a more believeable fashion. Americans are masters at marketing and there is just no comparison to their skills in this area. Normally during a war, believing either side is foolish. India is...

    Russia's ruble worth less than 1 cent after West tightens sanctions

    You forget that Putin is not a career politician. He has been in the thickest of policy manipulation, social engineering, battle plans, secrets, etc, for a large part of his mayoral career. He's seen what happens to dictators who use rampant force without thought. Dismissing him as "another...

    Global Times: Indian netizens swarm to Twitter to support Russia; even more around the world criticize West, US hypocrisy

    No way. The neutral stance was more than clear; this is European war. India (as well as Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar) under British occupation lost millions of people to the madness of WW2. The NATO gang and Russians are trying to create 2 poles again (more NATO than Russia). We don't want...

    Global Times: Indian netizens swarm to Twitter to support Russia; even more around the world criticize West, US hypocrisy

    We don't get a lot of Russian consumer products in India. Most of it is industrial equipment and stuff. Some niche supermarkets in upmarket neighborhoods sell stuff from East Europe and Mediterranean regions, but it's not common all over. For example, there are like 3-4 Russian restaurants in Delhi.

    Global Times: Indian netizens swarm to Twitter to support Russia; even more around the world criticize West, US hypocrisy

    Many are Russian bots as well with Indian-sounding names. I saw some posts by random people mixing up names that just don't make sense in an Indian context. For example, "Ramdas Khan" or "Zafar Singh Yadav" is like "Wang Takahashi" :lol: . Clear sign of bots mashing random names from the...

    Australia spent billions on jet fighters off the plan. Now, we’re having trouble even flying them

    Seems to be working pretty good isn't it? Lockheed Martin is on a roll; just look at the sales of these jets even before the Ukraine-Russia war started. Poland, Finland, Japan, South Korea, Singapore.. apart from all the main partners. They expect Thailand, Switzerland, and Germany also to buy...

    US Considers Sanctions On India After It Abstained To Vote On Russia - NDTV

    We know. International relations are all about interests. Especially to the US. For now, our interests align and hence we are cooperating and working towards building a commercial relationship the best possible way we can. Let's see where this goes.

    Turkey's inflation seen jumping to 53% in February

    Erdogan should really raise the interest rates. Lowering interest rates to increase spending at that inflation is not a good idea. Given that the conflict is something they just can't avoid at this time, prudence in internal measures would go a long way until everything is cooled down in Europe...

    China not emerging as lifeline for sanction-slammed Russian economy

    There are limits to what China can do. They still need access to Western markets that can be jeopardised with excessive support at a time when there is no direct threat to China. West on the other hand, is one single living, breathing entity. Italy, Spain, US, Canada... these are all just...

    Indian Female Students Kidnapped in Ukraine. One Male Student Shot Dead. Other Female Students Get Thrown Out of the Train by Ukrainians

    Then what exactly are Pakistani students doing in Ukraine? There were several Pakistani students as well who were stuck and have raised requests with your foreign minister on Twitter. Surely there must be some recognition mechanism, otherwise they won't be wasting their parents' cash,.

    Russia's ruble worth less than 1 cent after West tightens sanctions

    Kuchh Zyada ho gaya, bhai. :lol: . Not happening so fast. De-dollarizing at that scale would take a lot more. Most countries don't want to get involved in this fight and are keeping away from taking sides like you and we did. We don't want to get involved in a fight that is thousands of miles...
