Waiting for all the Biden did that to complain about $130 price of oil to now come back and thank Biden for bringing oil back to $95
The show also aired recent clips of former President Donald Trump attacking Biden for not speaking to Putin. He even hinted that the upcoming presidential elections will include Russian meddling again. "We're waiting," the host said. Russian member of parliament demands Putin take Alaska while state TV host suggests nuclear strikes: report Russian member of Parliament, Oleg Matveychev, who is known for spouting Putin's propaganda, showed another clip of Fox News host Tucker Carlson with his own comments. “There isn’t a single country in the world that is as easily manipulated as America,” Matveychev said. “Here’s what will be on the table after our victory... After Ukraine’s demilitarization is completed... we’re going to raise the stakes... For example, the lifting of all sanctions... The dissolution of NATO, because the presence of NATO in some countries is getting in our way. Extradition of all war criminals... like [Anton] Herashchenko [former deputy minister at the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs], Zelensky, [former President of Ukraine Petro] Poroshenko. Extradition of various oligarchs, like [Mikhail] Khodorkovsky." "We should be thinking about reparations from the damage that was caused by the sanctions and the war itself, because that too costs money and we should get it back. The return of all Russian properties, those of the Russian empire, the Soviet Union and current Russia, which has been seized in the United States, and so on." “Are you including Alaska and Fort Ross?” the host asked. “That was my next point. As well as the Antarctic," Matveychev, continued. "We discovered it, so it belongs to us... Also, the return of all medals that have been unlawfully taken from our sportsmen during all Olympic games, as well as the extradition of [Grigory] Rodchenkov, along with the extradition of multiple other criminals we’ll want. I think we should start voicing all of that, so they understand what will be on the table. You didn’t want to talk to us about something small, like Ukraine’s neutrality, here’s what you get. And that’s not even all of it.” "Does your list include a tactical nuclear strike, or are we going straight for the strategic one?" the host asked. “What for? We can take them down without it," replied Matveychev. “I still think that those who took our money should be told, you have 24 hours to unfreeze our funds, or else we’ll send you what you know we’ve got," the host claimed, according to the translation. "Your choice. Tactical or strategic, take a pick. You took our money, you’re the thieves, our talk is short with you: a bullet to the head.”
Ukraine in The Hague to demand creation of separate account in EU for Russia to pay reparations https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-at...ount-in-eu-for-russia-to-pay-reparations.html Ukraine insists on opening a separate account in the EU, to which Russia will receive funds for gas and oil to be further used to restore Ukraine's economy. "We work towards setting a precedent in payments and accumulating the money that is now paid to Russia for gas and oil. This money must stop flowing into Russian accounts and must be accumulated on a special account in the EU so that Russia does not receive these funds. This money must be transferred to Ukraine for the recovery of Ukraine's economy and reparations, and also for the Russian Federation to be punished and pay in full for all the crimes it commits in Ukraine," Lana Zerkal, a member of the Ukrainian delegation for participation in the oral arguments at the UN International Court of Justice in The Hague, said on the air of Ukrainian TV channel. According to Zerkal, this account opens on the basis of EU sanctions by European states which now receive energy from Russia. "Instead of coming to Russia, and according to estimates by European countries themselves, it is almost a billion dollars a month, these funds are deposited in a special account and then the sum is transferred to Ukraine," she added. On February 24, Russian president Putin declared war on Ukraine and launched a large-scale invasion. Russian troops shell and destroy infrastructure, conduct massive shelling of residential areas of Ukrainian cities and towns using artillery, MLRS, and ballistic missiles. Martial law was imposed in Ukraine and general mobilization was announced.
The incompetence of Russian military is breathtaking. One tank. Just one. No support. Nothing. No wonder it is a shooting gallery.
