We also have evidence Russia is very good at shooting down its own highly classified aircraft - giving it to Ukraine and the West to exploit...

True , could result in UAF finally having access to some real game changing technology since the NATO gamechangers that were supplied so far turned out to be useless junk instead of changing the game.

And wouldn't it be funny if inside we find a "Made in North Korea" label....ROFL..

What this still shot of lil' Putin does not show - that the video footage does - is his hands distinctly shaking while holding his notes.

Loser.

Speaking Friday as the forum opened, Putin said he wants to create a “new world order” of Moscow’s allies to counter the West

"We want to be able to invade and kill our neighbours with impunity!"

Anyone who wants a "World Order" run by autocratic murderers needs their head examining. You can stick that sort of 'order' up your backside.

The sooner we consign these fossil fuel maniacs to the dustbin the better for the entire world.

Zelenskyy: hanging out with, and successfully obtaining financial assistance from, the top brass in Europe. Standing ovation last time he spoke in the US (apart from on the part of the republicans, who are for all intents and purposes a Russian party anyway and thus don't matter).

Putin: hanging out with terrorists and pipsqueak loser countries.

As a terrorist state, Russia belongs in Iran's orbit.

I was assured last year, when the ICC ruled that Putin was facing charges for evacuating orphans out of a war zone and placing them with loving families, that he would never be allowed to leave Russia.

Turkmenistan isn't a member of the ICC like most members of the dictatorship brigade.

Countries are lining up to roll out the red carpet for Putin.

Yeah, I mean he has his choice of vacant land to go to.

Nobody believes the F-16 was the limit of NATO weaponry, but whatever helps the vatnik sleep at night.

And you may want to ask all the Russian sailors on the Rostov-on-Don and Minsk about that "NATO junk"...

Make sure to bring your scuba gear though...

Humankind and Planet Earth are thirsting for peace, prosperity, and security. World leaders are yet to do justice to their enormous potential in serving the last, the least, and the lost.

Wise words as ever Doc.

Shocking that in the 21st century we still have maniacs who think that stealing land and slaughtering civilians is the way forward for a 'New World Order'.

World leaders are yet to do justice to their enormous potential in serving the last, the least, and the lost.

The brutal reality is tyrants and despots like Putin, Xi and Kim care not one bit for "the last, the least and the lost".

They have no need to.

Evidence that Russia is doing just fine economically and that they have pulled off sanction proofing quite well.

Civil war has broken out between the Chechens and the Dagestanis

The west should provide weapons, intelligence and careful misinformation to northern Caucus ethnic groups within the Russian federation and encourage their independence from Russia. Putin needs to choose between keeping his fragile massive nation intact or it imploding.

A 'New World Order' is needed in that part of the world that doesn't include the corrupt and perpetually impoverishing influence of Soviet dinosaurs like Putin.

I wonder what would happen if his transportation were to explode en route. Probably the next oligarch would take over right and things would continue on in Russia as they always have, right?

conservative values, keeping things as they’ve always been.

let’s leave progress for the other places

If Putin was smart, he won't go back. Civil war has broken out between the Chechens and the Dagestanis, parts of Russia have fallen to the Ukrainians, Russians are fleeing Crimea because Ukraine penetrated the air defense to blow up oil plans, scaring the people, and the people are rioting en masse because they aren't willing to send their children to die for Putin's ego anymore.

If he goes back, they will kill him. Russia thought they could hold it together, but only the most expert jugglers don't eventually drop the balls, and Russia has shown us that competence is something they only front, and don't actually possess.

The natural progression to a multipolar world proceeds. This is blowback against the hegemonic bloc mentality of the unipolar Atlanticists who have declared they have a special license to sanction, bomb, invade and genocide while claiming the moral high ground under the flimsy pretext of international law, which they abuse at the drop of a hat.

Russia still the shortest pole in the world, but the lack of consistency in doing exactly what they blame the US for is noted.

During the two presidents' meeting, Putin told Pezeshkian that Moscow and Tehran's positions on international events are often very close, according to Russian state news agency Tass.

Their sole reason to exist is to attack the West so yeah, I could see that.

Excellent...

When Mister Putin talks, the world listens..

And another clear indicator where things are heading on the battlefield.

Moscow is far from isolated.

Putin is not on a begging tour. It's about building bridges.
