    They are winning and they will win. And it will be the second time Russia defeated a military full of Nazis.

    I think it is not correct to use the conversion rate of 60. Of course, when the exchange rate rouble/dollar is low the prices for such things will be high. It does not mean that if one rouble equals one dollar, the computer will cost like Ferrari. Since they get paid in roubles in Russia this price comparison is not quite correct. This kind of laptop costed ca 85000-90000 at the beginning of the year.

    I don't think there will be major disruptions in IT sector. The Chinese will fill the void. Smartphones, laptops etc....Some of their smart phones are cheaper and better quality than the European ones. Also the Chinese aren't stupid. They know that the USA is after them. For example, the USA bullied the British government into breaking up the 5G deal with the Chinese. Confucians are keeping low profile these days.

    Was it Russia that colonized the world and enslaved the populations for 400 years or was that Americans?

    I don't think it was Americans unless we invent a time machine in the future.

    I agree, we need to stop zelensky and his nazi party getting his hands on nukes if it's the last thing we do. Churchill must be turning in his grave.

    Err.. what post were you reading? Because nowhere in the post your responding to (mine) was the subject of arming Ukraine with nuclear weapons even mentioned! In fact I clearly stated that NATO doesn't have any nuclear weapons deployed close to Russia's border and hasn't for decades. Try again.

    Only in Pooteen's sick brain. :D

    He wishes he were also a strong fascist leader like Comrade Stalin. But he's just a dirty, little street thug that the CPSU made look big.

    ...no reason really - just wondered if you got involved with risk mitigation side as well, we get involved with a lot of commodity/pre-export financing/RBL transactions and as part of setting up the bank syndications and doing the usual KYC but also get involved with NPI/CRI on behalf of obligors in respect of payments/transaction due under the contracts....anyway that's for another time....

    Says Kremlin-controlled media, right? :D

    Pooteen learned KGB trickery and how to deceive the masses. For some this might look intelligent.

    Meet the well-sophisticated ruzzian people.



    Natural born cannon fodder. :D

    Intelligence is --

    1.) The ability to learn, understand, and make judgments or have opinions that are based on reason.

    2.) Secret information about the governments of other countries, especially enemy governments, or a group of people who collect and deal with this information.

    That's not the same. :)

    Nope, it was Islam. And it's been more like 1200 years.

    He's not even a street thug. He's a desk jockey who masturbated to fantasies of being 007...

    I agree, Americans like to pretend that they never enslaved black ppl for 300 years and act like they aren't a nation of thugs and murderers.

    Not me, but brother Esau thinks both are identical. :(

    Comrade Pooteen was a KGB agent aka. Bolshevik intelligence officer, but not an intelligent officer. :D

    His attack on Ukraine proves his ignorance and stupidity. An intelligent person doesn't act like this. Pooteen created lots of problems for his motherland Ruzzia. He probably works for an anti-Russian power. Maybe China? Who knows?

    As a young man the Pooteen roamed the streets of Leningrad, messing around with other gangsters, so he wrote in his autobiography.

    His nuclear weapons now probably give him the illusion of being young and powerful forever. But it's just an illusion.

    Ruzzians think they're strong, but they are weak in every way, whether militarily or economically. Nonetheless, Ruzzia is as dangerous as a rabid animal and deserves the same treatment. :)
