Easy to pose for a photo, then head back to a safe spot.
Edit: the op later posts that "this photo was not taken today"
I'm against what Russia are doing here 100% but lets not forget that Ukraine are well able to publish propaganda too.
Edit#2: a reverse image search shows that the photo was taken on the 2nd of January when he went to meet reservists at a traning camp.

If there was (and there indeed was) a choice between having Biden or Trump you're actually saying with hindsight you would vote Biden?

I mean the whole world isnt afraid of facing up to the US with Biden in charge.

Surely that tells you something?!

I find it mind blowing that after all Trumps faults people would choose a coward who is now 0/2 in Afganistan and now the current mess.





He didnt say that...at least not the way it was in black/white.

He's stated that Putin's tactics were spot on...and its hard to disagree with that from where Russias troops are standing.



????

No one has suggested a "military act" as far as I can see.





The sanctions are incredibly week.

What sanctions could be levied that will hurt Putin and not the populace?

I look at the sanctions and think they are more illogical than anything, and some of the suggestions being made are bordering on illegal.

It's really not baffling to you, it's a deliberate obfuscation on your part or severe myopia.

I would vote for nearly any sentient being with something near a moral compass over Donald J. Trump. Possibly even Ted Cruz.

Thats not dark money. May come from shady dealings but its not the same

dark money​


: money contributed to nonprofit organizations (especially those classified as social welfare organizations and business leagues) that is used to fund political campaigns without disclosure of the donors' identities

got ya

Russian - and now Chinese - money has infiltrated the west for years, and western politics.

Let's not forget the Labour MP who just last month was found to have received £500k in Chinese funding.

I'm not saying it's not wrong or that you are incorrect. But does that take away from what any government is trying to do now?

Biden is useless - we know that and so does Putin. Johnson is useless. The EU leaders have been shown up to be useless. As if the last two years hadn't taught us that.
