The Brink of War?

[StevieWonders]

Admit? Like I was trying to hide something? Despise? Show me where I said any such thing.

I'll repeat what I said to you earlier: "If you can make better sense answering my question than they did, I'm all ears (well, eyes anyway)"

Obviously you cannot.

Why would I waste my time on a loser like you?

No. It will not: all bonds what issued since 2018 have conditions to be paid in rubles. For rest amount Russia has grace period till April 15.

As said here https://www.bbc.com/news/business-60750642 "A default now would be hugely symbolic". Russia has enough of assets, so investors should be "grateful" to own govts for freezing half of them and for loosing moneys.

By the way: Ukraine already discussing "Swiss or Austrian neutrality" with limited army and navy size at meetings with Russia and Russian language in regions with Russian minority above 5%. I think till April 15 everything will be done.

So question is: why they didn't it at past 8 years within Minsk protocol in normal peaceful talks???

Good summary of the complicated Minsk protocols.

It was Putin on February 22 that declared the Minsk agreements "no longer existed" History tells us what happened next.

Exactly. February 22, 2022. While Minsk II agreement was signed on 12 February 2015. 7 years Russia waited Ukrainian actions for implementation. Tens of thousands been killed, over 1 million of refugees ran from the East to Russia at these years. And West kept silence.

Right now Nazi regiment "Azov" is surrounded and isolated near Mariupol. They are freelancers, not a regular army. "Azov's" commanders calling for help. No one of them will leave this area alive - they aren't combatant as per Hague convent, so they haven't protection by law. Chechens are waiting for the night.

"Aidar", "Azov" and "Tornado" are criminals since 2014 https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/ne...unteer-forces/

Sorry, I'm too much of a loser to take that kind of obvious bait.

Good for Russia! They managed to stay solvent, you must be proud.

Trudeau got sanctioned though, so pretty sure that's it for us, and the Canadian economy will soon be crippled for decades to come.

Are you sure what Trudeau is representing the whole Canadian economic?

Meanwhile Russia doesn't make any countersanctions besides rocket engines and personal symbolic sanctions. Russia still pumps gas, oil, sends coal for to fight with European energy-crisis. Russia even pumps gas via Ukraine and pays for transit, while Zelensky cries to stop working North Stream.
