Sunday’s successful blockade run could signal to international shippers that it’s reasonably safe to resume operations from Ukrainian ports.

      They are treating you like a child because you are acting like one.

      Theyre literally down voting “direct engagements between US and Russian military assets could lead to nuclear war”

        That’s literally the only threat russia has.

        We didn’t let them use it during the cold war because they “well-actually”'d their way through all of eastern europe, EXACTLY LIKE THEY’RE TRYING TO DO NOW!!!

        So yes, I’m enjoying watching Russian kids bleed out on the battlefield very much, thank you, because everyone the Ukrainians leave feeding sunflowers is another one that isn’t threatening the Baltics or other peaceful countries.

          You know the USSR contained eastern europe that wasn’t controlled by the socialists in Yugoslavia right? They integrated them into their democracy after defeating the nazi collaborationist regimes and the Nazis. They subsidized their economies and those eastern European now nations voted overwhelmingly to stay in the soviet union in the last referendum on the issue.

          EXACTLY LIKE THEY’RE TRYING TO DO NOW!!!

          Seems to me they’re responding to a coup that the US were caught redhanded orchestrating or at least oppurtunistically using a protest to achieve. Nuland and Pyatt were talking about who to put in the government, Russia had them wiretapped and published it, and Nuland admitted it was real.

          Not to mention the wave of violence, the banning of Russian language, etc in the lead up to the conflict.

          You do realize you’re paying for that enjoyment with the blood of ukrainian conscripts right?

            Which is why they had to constantly attack their civilians with tanks, got it.

            And you know Tito’s response to Stalin right?

            They want to, and I’m paying for it with my tax dollars, gladly.

            I know this doesn’t make sense, but some people care about freedom.

              They offered Hungary a peaceful settlement, and then soviet officials and random Jewish people started dying and they rolled in the tanks. Did you learn anything about 1956? Do you know how connected the uprising was to the nazi collaborationist government?

              I know this doesn’t make sense, but some people care about freedom.

              Is that why Ukraine is now funding Hitler youth camps? And why they’ve banned all the political opposition?
