Gorbachev continued that “The agreement on a final settlement with Germany said that no new military structures would be created in the eastern part of the country; no additional troops would be deployed; no weapons of mass destruction would be placed there. It has been obeyed all these years.” To be sure, the former Soviet president criticized NATO enlargement and called it a violation of the spirit of the assurances given Moscow in 1990, but he made clear there was no promise regarding broader enlargement.
Where’s the source for this bit? This cunt is as bad as you. But he gets paid for it.
The Ukrainians have released a list of 600 people (addresses, fob, passport numbers, car regs, drinking habits) who they claim to be FSB agents operating around the world
If that’s true - that has just fucked the FSBs operational effectiveness
That’ll screw them for years, whether true or not in many cases, they’ll never be able to shake of the tags, this war will hurt and lessen Russia for generations, if I were long term planning for Russia geo political future I’d pull out of Ukraine immediately, get the best deal possible and start to bolster influence and resources on the Chinese border, that is where their real threat is, it was never on the European border, simply put what do they have we can’t buy?
Pap, its the amount, that amount of intelligence officers is huge, and impossible to replace quickly, how can you bring people in as well? As an example how do you bring in envoys and diplomats discretely now? It takes years to put people in and if swathes of embassies are emptied you’ve not only lost contacts but you’ve lost the chance of cover as all new people in will be watched en masse, if true, they’re fucked on the intelligence front.
So if Abramovich was poisoned by Pootin while he was negotiating for peace in Ukraine does that mean he is now a goodie, not a baddie and should have his yachts, private jets and football club returned and sanctions lifted? I see The Sun are being very sympathetic towards him so no doubt it will be the next step. Clever move from Roman, out of the blocks sharpish on operation rehabilitation.
I do think that maybe Pootin should take a look at his chemical weapon supplier though, they don’t seem to be much cop. This latest batch didn’t even require medical treatment at the time, the victims apparently were too busy negotiating to notice any symptoms and they only came to light several days after the event.
Abramovich may be playing a game for much higher stakes tbh.
The man who rescued Russia from a meat grinder may be playing to move into a new job when the man who put them in it takes a rain/novi check
