An interesting talking point. It’s often said that one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter. Weren’t the Chechens currently fighting on the Russian side in Ukraine originally designated as terrorists?

Not to mention, the FBI has consistently said right wing extremism is the biggest domestic threat to national security for years.
Apparently, Putin has decided on a different approach to solve the problem. Or he's just using it as a convenient excuse to be an asshole, one or the other.
No. They weren't. There are 2 main streams in clans in Chechnya. Current ruling clan was always on Russian side, that why father of current leader and formerly leader has been killed.
And second one stream that ran from Russia after Chechen war, is living in Austria, UK, Germany and so on - they are in opposition. When you hear what one of Chechens has been killed in Berlin - you may be sure it is echo of war btw clans.
I can only hope that PooTin gets "retired" real soon, the damage he's done to Ukraine not to mention to Russia boggles the mind...what a waste of beautiful people..
Even Canadian snipers are friendly.

Heartful thanks to these two heroes and the rest of the international volunteers helping UKRAINE.
Yeah. But only until he will be dead.
By the way: what he is doing is criminal in Canada.

Oh please! You are just parroting the Kremlin's deniability position. Everyone knows that isn't the case.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagner_GroupQuote:
The Wagner Group (Russian: Группа Вагнера, romanized: Gruppa Vagnera), also known as PMC Wagner, ChVK Wagner (ChVK being the Russian abbreviation for Private Military Company),[34] or CHVK Vagner (ЧВК Вагнера ChVK Vagnera, Частная Военная Компания Вагнера), is a Russian paramilitary organization. It is variously described as a private military company, a network of mercenaries, or a de facto private army of Russian President Vladimir Putin.[35]
The Wagner Group came to global prominence during the war in Donbas in Ukraine, where it aided separatist forces of the self-declared Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics from 2014 to 2015. Its contractors have reportedly taken part in various conflicts around the world—including the civil wars in Libya, Syria, the Central African Republic (CAR), and Mali—often fighting on the side of forces aligned with the Russian government. Though welcomed by some allied factions, such as the governments of Syria and the CAR, Wagner operatives have been accused of war crimes in areas where they are deployed.[36][37]
Because it often operates in support of Russian interests or foreign policy objectives, and is reportedly trained on installations of the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD), several sources consider ChVK Wagner an arm's-length unit of the MoD and/or Russia's military intelligence agency, the GRU.[38] Likewise, the group is widely believed to be owned and/or financed by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a businessman with close links to Putin. It is speculated that the Wagner Group is used by the Russian government to allow for plausible deniability in certain conflicts; it has most recently been tied to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, where it has been reportedly deployed to assassinate Ukrainian leaders.[39]
Matt, do you want I will change "Putin" to "Matt" in this article? "Everyone knows" - is typical "proof" in case when person hasn't proof. "Everyone knows" now is just "parroting" of propaganda - CNN publishes bullshit and then "everyone knows". The only problem everyone knows fake from CNN.
By the way - there is nothing about neo-Nazi in this article.
Once again: Ukraine is state what incorporated widely recognized neo-Nazi "Azov" into state structure. Ukraine is state what cooperates with neo-Nazi and sponsors neo-Nazi. Point.
And all that started from nationalist coup in 2014.
Yeah, that whopping 2% of the vote the Nazis got. Definitely justifies the invasion.
And wait, what? You guys equate Ukraine kicking Putin's stooge to the curb and wanting to join EU and NATO as them becoming "nazified"? That makes absolutely no sense, Moses.
I'm saying not about how much Nazi got at voting. I'm saying state Ukraine incorporated Nazi into state structure. It gives them support form 2014. It gives them weapon from 2014.
And when someone here writes about "even one life", I want to ask: where was your tongue at past 8 years? In the ass? 14000+ persons gone in Donbass at past 8 years, over 1 million of refugees. Where was you tongues at that time?

Yeah, yeah, sure it's just a coincidence that the Wagner group always shows up where Putin needs them. Just as it's a coincidence that the GRU agents showed up in Salisbury to admire the cathedral at the time that the Skripals were poisoned. Just as it was a coincidence that a Russian BUK missile launcher was in the area from which a Malaysian airline was shot down.
Same old cracked record and really feeble lies and denials.
Nobody is fooled by the denials, except perhaps yourselves.
Oh please stops that crocodile's tears...
Wagner is official private military company - they do what other companies does - taking orders and do their jobs. Maybe you forgot names of US PMC? Over 100,000 contractors were used by US govt only in Iraq. Why you starting to talk about such business now? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_military_company
As per Skripals - they are Russian citizens. At least. Israel killed 6 foreign citizens at past 10 years in foreign countries, mainly Iranian scientists. Do you want to discuss it? Or maybe you want to discuss how general from Iran has been killed by US drone in 2020? Is US in state of war with Iran? No?
Do you think only some states have rights for justice while other haven't? You use double standards dear.
As per "Russian BUK" - there is no court's resolution yet. Presumption of innocence is still in power? Or "for Russians we will use special law"?
It appears as if Putin's threats to Finland may be falling on deaf ears...as Finland slowly hedges towards joining the NATO Alliance.
One could say with a reasonable amount of confidence that Putin's objective of weakening NATO has certainly backfired. It's starting to look like NATO, which was at one time fairly useless, could become the epicenter of the New World Order.
Will Sweden be next?

the Brink of War thread has already proved how pointless this discussion is - neither side is remotely interested in listening to or trying to understand what the other side is saying, just wanting to be legends in their own lunchtime scoring points, but if you want to keep wasting your time with this wanking then do it over on that thread where it is easy for the rest of us to ignore
Neo-Nazi battalion "Azov" is incorporated into state structure, has base in state military academia and is sponsored by state. Do you need more proof? How do you call Jewish who cooperates with Nazi?

According to The Guardian Russian shoppers believe sanctions are biting abf they’re back in the old days of the USSR - https://www.theguardian.com/world/20..._b-aplnews_d-3
Well. You forgot one more word - "Chinese". New Chinese world order.
IMF already declared what they will recalculate how much US dollars should be in reserves. And that doesn't means what they want to grow share of dollars in reserves.
PS: if Russia will stop to sell gas and oil, then whole "New World Order" will became "New World Chaos" just in 3 days. Look at stocks at Feb 24-25, look at gasoline, diesel prices... and you have these prices while Russia continues to pump oil and gas in full as this described in contracts.
This is a somewhat common Hindu symbol…..do you know any Hindu Nazis?
Oh, I didn't expect that too soon. But since some countries are very brave to arrest Russian gold reserves, they will pay for Russian gas only in rubles from April as per today Kremlin decree.
Good luck to buyers: they will have to find enough rubles on the market and not to fall into American sanctions at the same time by the way. All contracts must be done in full, but payment only in rubles by currency stock exchange rate.

I do not know about The Guardian, but prices in our local Auchan, where I usually shop, have already skyrocketed. For example, dorado fish, which my partner and I love very much and regularly buy, cost 499 rubles per kilogram in February. Last Sunday, when we were there, the price was already 1059 rubles per kilogram. More than twice! And this fish does not come from Europe, but from Turkey, which is still loyal to Putin to some extent. And this situation has developed for all types of goods, not only imported but domestic as well. Even Russian vodka have added 50-70 rubles in price!
Today ruble got stronger from 105 in 1 USD to 90. Wait a little bit.
Start of selling gas for rubles will have quite strong impact on everything, including sanctions and prices. And we still have here 0.5 USD per litter of gasoline and extremally cheap taxi like 8-10 USD for 1 hour ride :)
