Gas price $169 today

and you failed to show a single thing that eu was supposed to do and actually come to effect in practice , all was talks no action at all , no effects at all



”On Implementation Day (16 January 2016), the EU lifted all its economic and financial sanctions taken in connection with the Iranian nuclear programme. As a consequence of the lifting of these sanctions, the following activities, including associated services, are allowed as of Implementation Day.
• Financial, banking and insurance measures
As of Implementation Day, it is allowed to engage in financial transfers to and from Iran. The obligation to have recourse to notification and authorisation regimes is lifted. Consequently, transfers of funds between EU persons, entities or bodies, including EU financial and credit institutions, and non-listed Iranian persons, entities or bodies, including Iranian financial and credit institutions, are permitted as of Implementation Day and the requirements for authorisation or notification of transfers of funds are no longer applicable.”

This is how Russia retreat from Lyman


I can say this is going to be wishful thinking.


Don't know.......again, saw a name in some report a few months ago when there is a rumor Putin is having assassination attempt. Maybe it is or maybe not, I don't know.

One of guys i spoke few weeks ago was put onto "scraping russian innards off captured vehicles" duty. The guy spoke too much on telegram.

Whatever you want to say, Ukrainians are tough warriors. Helps when they are fighting for their very survival. No wonder that the Russians are demoralized. They are fighting against their fellow Slavic brethren for a corrupt and incompetent Russian elite who has been blundering Russia for decades, stolen billions of USD and whose children and relatives study and live abroad in the same West that they publicly criticize.

A country the size of Russia, with all its enormous natural resources, mineral wealth, water reserves, forest cover, technological legacy of the USSR, competent people (elites) of the past etc. should have become a formidable power. Instead it has developed into a corrupt, mismanaged and decaying nation.



Russians cannot win this war and their army has been exposed as a second rate army. Remove the nukes and Russia would struggle to win a conventional war against any serious opponent.

If this turns into a nuclear-armed conflict, our very existence could be in danger. All for what, other than primitive human ego by those in power?

They indeed did send crack troops to Lyman, and Izyum as reinforcements, and they just wasted them all by having them sit in trenches, waiting to be overrun by a mechanised push.

Spetsnez, not spetsnez all die if ran over by a tank.
Well, they are going to freeze to death in this winter.....

It's not like they have spare armour for that. By all accounts they did deploy ambushes on those roads, and had artillery reaching over them from the south, just not enough of it.
You can still exploit by the way you move your troop. Speed vs Maneuver, a competent commander can take one over the other, a good commander can do both. It's all about movement and how well did you plan and execute that maneuver.

A guy I know actually trying to send a gift basket to Kremlin and thanking them for supplying the Ukrainian a lot of Russian weapons.

This happens when you go from warrior status to building mansions, siphoning wealth outside your country, and stationing it in your enemy territory. I mean, Putin's daughters have real estate in Paris worth millions, and his close aids sent girlfriends on private planes to the US to give birth to babies to acquire US citizenship. The corruption and rot in the system do this to any nation.
