Economic sanctions caused by their war in Ukraine are devastating Russian economy:
- who is 'their'?hotroddy
- lol @ people downvoting an academic paper from Yaleyuekit
- their = rassapango
- Because this reads more like propaganda trying to shore the case for economic war against Russia rather than an honest appraisal of its economy.Khurram

Igor Girkin, who helped start the war in Ukraine, has some grudging respect for Zelensky and seems to think Putin is weak.

- Car bomb kills Alexandr Dugin's daughteryuekit
- They thought it was some game to call to kill people, this will sober him updrgs
- Dugin himself was there, I guess he was the target

- HmmmmmmmmmAQUTE
- What is it with Russians and windows, poison, and car bombs, anyway?Continuity
- Insane that he posted that note on twitter and mere hours later they assassinate his daughter. Nobody’s safe under Putin._niko
- I'd genuinely love to know who did it. Ukraine deny involvement, which I'm inclined to believe.Continuity
- i'm almost certain it's Russian op. why kill daughter of your friend? so many in the West can listen to Dugin and his explanations.pr2
- he's a smart guy and knows what he's talking about but hopefully it's not enough to convince any useful idiots that Russia is not evil,pr2
- Russia is evil and no amount of relativism talk changes that.pr2
- he'll now have to come to terms if individuality (him as father or his daughter) wins over the needs of the state (for his daughter to die...pr2
- ... for the so-called "higher good").pr2
- Looks like both Dugin and his daughter were involved in Russia's foreign influence efforts.yuekit
- https://newlinesmag.…yuekit
- They were coordinating funding and messaging between Russian billionaires and politicians like Le Pen and Salvini.yuekit
- Also friends with David Duke, Richard Spencer and other white nationalists in the USA. Spencer's ex wife was Dugin's translatoryuekit
- Some Russian dude I'd never heard about is saying it's an anti-Putin homegrown partisan group I'd never heard about:Continuity
- https://www.theguard…Continuity
- Yeah interesting... this is the group's Telegram channel
https://t.me/s/rospa…yuekit - It seems fake IMO...like this is a cover for something else. Could be one faction of the government going to war against the otheryuekit
- There were those mysterious bombings when Putin first came to power...
https://archive.is/R…yuekit - Whoever is behind the assassination also makes reference to this
https://twitter.com/…yuekit - Dugin is an actual nazi. Weird.
My mate reckons it's a separate faction of the government trying to clean house before melting PutinPhanLo

Porsches and Bentleys fill Helsinki airport as Russian tourists head to Europe
Discontent grows over Finland’s visa policy as country becomes key transit route for Russian travellersPorsches, Bentleys and other luxury cars with Russian licence plates are filling the parking garage at Helsinki airport as Finland becomes an important transit country for Russian tourists flying to Europe.
The EU shut its airspace to Russian planes after Moscow invaded Ukraine, forcing anyone who wants to travel to Europe to drive across the border or take a circuitous route using non-western airlines.

"The FSB affirms that the author of the crime would have been a Ukrainian citizen, Natalya Pavlovna Vovk, born in 1979. Another Russian state agency, RIA Novosti, has published several images of her. One of the most striking details is that her lips are excessively enlarged, probably due to a bad injection of botox or hyaluronic acid. It is not a physical characteristic that you would expect from an agent of an intelligence service, because that would make her too recognizable.
Tass also points out that Vovk would have arrived in Russia on July 23, 2022 Along with his daughter Shaban Sofia Mikhailovna, born in 2010. Furthermore, the agency quotes the following statement from the FSB: “On the day of the murder, Vovk and Shaban were at the Tradition music and literature festival, where Dugina was present.” In other words, we are dealing with a supposed intelligence agent who takes her 12-year-old daughter on a mission.
To make matters worse, yesterday afternoon RIA Novosti published an FSB video about the suspects. As Anton Shvets pointed out, at 1:53 you can see that in the back seat of the car carried a cat in a cage. In other words, the alleged intelligence agent would not only have taken her 12-year-old daughter on the mission, but also her cat."
- why does this quote feels like a twitter police osint post?sted
- a sequel to this?

Since February 24, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has caused more than five million Ukrainians to flee abroad. But for the millions who have remained in the country, life goes on, as best it can. Despite the bombings, the destruction, the separated or bereaved families, the fear, Ukrainians still in their home country need to eat, sleep, grocery shop, care for their children and themselves, plough the fields, but also try to find moments to relax, have fun, love... AFP's photographers capture this shaken daily life everyday through their lenses in all four corners of Ukraine. The following 60 photos are a sample of their work.
