Romania was once home to the most powerful being on Earth.
A being who to this day, might still be walking this Earth.

India is definitely drawn on the wrong person....:
Emperror Franz Joseph's mummy?
A historical paradox — large empires were terrible losers. Even Rome, and Han rode out conflicts solely on economy, and ability to come back.
Historically, empires lost most terribly when they were on the defensive.

Count Vlad Tepes Dracula
Mariupol is 95% under the control of the Russian Army and Allied forces. The point in the battle for the city will be set at the Azovstal plant, the ring around it has shrunk. Russia will gain full military control over Mariupol in the coming days. Heavy artillery has already started firing direct fire, an ACS 2C3 "Acacia" with a 152-mm caliber firing direct fire was seen on the streets. The mass surrender of Ukrainian army soldiers began in Mariupol.
Footage of the shooting of the Russian Tor-M2 SAM at a Ukrainian UAV has been published. According to the calculation of the SAM, during the special operation in Ukraine, they fired 20 missiles, hit 11 targets, among them seven Bayraktar TB2 Turkish-made UAVs. "Tor-M2" is a representative of a new generation of short-range air defense systems.
The mass surrender of Ukrainian army soldiers began. On April 5, at night, 267 Ukrainian soldiers from the 503rd battalion of the 36th Separate Marine Brigade of the Naval Forces of Ukraine surrendered in Mariupol near the village of Sartana.

Why did UK who chairs the current UNSC rejected Russia request to convene a meeting to appoint independent investigations into all these allegations?
Russian Army Raped Woman and Burned Swastika on Her Body, Ukraine Claims
Ukrainian MP Lesia Vasylenko said she felt "anger and fear and hatred" after seeing images of the woman's tortured body.www.newsweek.com
A Ukrainian member of parliament has claimed that Russian soldiers raped, tortured and killed a woman, burning a swastika in her body.
But Russian soldiers at what appeared to be the scene of the same killing gave a different account and put the blame on Ukrainians.
The war crimes accusation is among the latest of many made by Ukrainians against Russia since it invaded in late February. Russia has denied the atrocities and has accused Ukraine of staging them to win sympathy in the West.
On Sunday, MP Lesia Vasylenko of the Holos party shared an image to her Twitter page of the woman she said had been killed.
"Tortured body of a raped and killed woman. I'm speechless. My mind is paralyzed with anger and fear and hatred. #StopGenocide#StopPutinNow," she tweeted. The tweet did not give more details.
But journalist Patrick Lancaster, covering the invasion with Russian soldiers, recorded the body of what appeared to be the same woman with the same wound in a school basement in Mariupol. On March 27, he tweeted a video of the scene.
The Russian soldiers accompanying him said the school had been used as a military base for Ukrainian forces and the Azov Battalion, a Ukrainian nationalist volunteer group.
Newsweek has not been able to independently verify Vasylenko's or the Russian soldiers' claims.
In the video, a Russian soldier says that upon retreating, Ukrainian forces dressed people in civilian clothing, then took their weapons and ammunition and headed to the city.
"Look how they did it. They left all their clothes here, changed the uniform to civilian clothes, and left to the city with weapons dressed in civilian clothes," the Russian soldier said, according to the YouTube caption translation.
"They've broken through everything here, all pouches, everything is empty. they took away all weapons and ammunition," the soldier continued as they walked through the school.
"Something burned down, something is left, something like this. Their warehouse burned down. These are remnants of weapons. Here are hand-held and other kinds of anti-tank grenade launchers, machine guns. Judging by the uniform found, it was National Guard and Azov."
When the soldiers and Lancaster reach the body, the soldier says Russian soldiers would not burn "fascist crosses" into civilians.
"Civilians, probably the ones who supported us. Obviously, she was stabbed, not by our guys, there are fascist crosses," he said.
"I don't know by whom. They were retreating, most probably it's a civilian. Our guys would not leave such crosses. Swastika, that's for sure."
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has repeatedly accused Russian forces of committing war crimes during the invasion of the country.
He held a press conference in the streets of Bucha on Monday and said Russians had executed civilians at close range in the city and had also committed other war crimes. The Kremlin has denied such allegations.
"These are war crimes and they will be recognized by the world as genocide," Zelensky said while speaking to the media on Monday.
"You are here today and can see what happened. We know of thousands of people killed and tortured, with severed limbs, raped women, murdered children. I think it is more than... this is a genocide."
Newsweek has contacted Ukraine's Ministry of Defense and the Russian Ministry of Defense for comment.
You can can investigate all you want, compile a vast amount of evidence and testimony, but it's all pointless. The person responsible is cowering in his nuclear proof bunker and unless we're either prepared to go in and get him or the Russian people turn on him, that's where he'll stay. The troops committing atrocities in his name will simply disappear back into Russia and never face trial. The world won't be safe until Putin is gone.

There is going to be a long period of recession and economic stagnation for Russia as it suffers for Putins mis-adventures. He'll likely stay in power until he dies, cowering in his fortresses and bunkers while his people suffer for their blind faith in a megalomaniacal and murderous dictator. Meanwhile their relevance to the world community diminishes as does any respect for not only Putins regime but for the Russian people. The pushback to the atrocities being commited continues to intensify-more sanctions, more countries supporting Ukraine, more weapons being sent.

From what I observe driving modern tanks are like driving Tesla. All computerized. Even firing on targets.

"The world won't be safe until Putin is gone."
That's what NATO said about Saddam. Actually, the world won't be safe until NATO is gone. Enough of its terrorist activity.
