Driving a car fuels Putin’s war machine, don’t drive a car, don’t burn gas in your home, close coal powered power plants, make Greta happy…
UPD: The protest calls itself: minus 3 degrees celsius for Ukraine, organised by the Extinction Rebellion. I am pretty sure that if there are Ukrainians among them, they are a minority. A video of an altercation between the activists and the drivers has appeared. Watch it before YouTube takes it down over violence…
The drivers are very angry, in case this gets taken down I have made an upload to RuTube, where it undergoes moderation.
This is what the door to the office of the president on Bankovaya street in central Kiev looks like now…
The neonazis have protested the jailing of a neonazi thug, Sternenko. But I am rather worried about a regime that allows the mob to vandalize seats of authority like this. The response of Murica to a rampaging mob was to call in the military to Washington DC.
One only wonders whether there would be any Russia at all?
In Ukraine, the local nationalist crowd seem to hate Alexey Navalny and think that he would be just like Putin. A video that has surfaced from recent protests in support of Navalny, which also took place in front of the Russian embassy in Kiev, which shows a confrontation between a Russian speaking individual, who says that “The sooner Putin is removed, the sooner Crimea will return back to Ukraine.” To which the nationalists say that Navalny is no different from Putin to put in decent terms…
I restrict age on my videos due to violence and vulgarities…
The fist gentleman represents the globalist point of view on Russia. To them any Russia that acts independently of the West is a problem. And they prefer a manageable Russia, preferably carved up into small manageable pieces. Carve it up like Africa and create new nations in Cossackia, Siberia, Moskovia etc. with new mickey mouse identities a la Ukraine and Belarus, that will be too weak and prone to outside influence, where the West could control the regimes, and if need be support friendly regimes militarily to quell any resistance. NATO countries like my own have a lot of experience in chasing a variety of savages in exotic lands. The Czech troops are currently stationed in Afghanistan and Mali for instance. And I have met Czech soldiers in Jordan rather recently.
Maybe I am exaggerating but I think it was Brzezinski, who said something along these lines. And I hear from other sources invested in influencing countries in the Former Soviet Union that this belief may not be all that uncommon. The wish for an absolutely compliant regime in the Kremlin is definitely there. The idea that the Russians act wrongly and they need to be punished for their actions is certainly almost ubiquitous in Western political circles.
One of glaring transgressions of Putin against the West was the annexation of Crimea in Spring 2014. In 2014, following an unconstitutional overthrow of power in Kiev, the Kremlin found the guts to take a Russian majority peninsula that hitherto belonged to Ukraine under its protection thus saving the people from political repression and forcible Ukrainisation. And also saving Russia from the humiliation of having to vacate their naval base. And the question is, would president Navalny do the same?
If we look back to an interview Navalny did with Ksenia Sobchak, he made his point on Crimea clear. He said that the referendum in 2014 was faked and that it would need to be repeated. To which Ksenia answered that what is the point of even suggesting a referendum with international observers when the West will not accept in anyway? Navalny also called for sanctions against Russian officials on the pages of the New York Times. (hat tip Anatoly Karlin) Navalny is basically a puppet, who is completely afraid of saying anything that could anger his Western handlers, and even if we assume that he does not have Western handlers, which is hard to do with every Western politician coming out in his support, he is surrounded by people, who are definitely in the pockets of Western interests. But we can of course give him the benefit of a doubt and assume that he will become a Russian patriot upon becoming a president. How then will he be different from Putin? Does Russia need Navalny?
Progressivism is a religion and it requires a military action to assert its values…
I hate war but I am not a pacifist. I would really like for there to be a collective European army instead of national militaries. And I would like it to intervene in Belarus in the name of European values to help local civic society.Hnutí Duha are absolute scum when it comes to environmental activism.
As Lukashenko suppresses the zmaharist protests, democratists are falling into panic.
To protest the incumbent president, some random maiden in Ukraine lifted her skirt and displayed genital area painted green, probably as a pun on the president’s surename…
I think she is attracted to men, who can play the piano with their dick…
First they kidnapped our country, they are kidnapping the best of us. But in the place of the select few from our ranks, hundreds of others will come. We have two ways, to continue to live in poverty or to build a Belarus that we deserve.
This is a similar level of demagoguery that we have observed during the Euromaidan protests in Ukraine. Did Ukraine achieve prosperity in the six years after its coup d’état? Is Ukraine closer to its stated goals of joining the EU or NATO.
In fact, what happened to Ukraine is a serious drop in living standards, mass unemployment in some regions, and exodus of millions of souls. Ukraine is further away from joining the EU than it was in 2013. In 2013, Ukraine was territorially complete and there wasn’t any military conflict that makes it extremely unattractive for westward integration.
Much like in Ukraine, the opposition in Belarus does not have a plan to elevate Belarussians out of poverty. In fact, the place is gonna suffer like never before should the opposition seize power.
