Look at all the people in Russia giving Putin and his pathetic, rigged fake election the middle finger, wow. Putin hears everyone laughing, doesn't appreciate what it does to his feels.
He just told a youth forum in Sochi "We will no longer tolerate criticism of our democracy. Our democracy is the best."
"Russian democracy" is like saying "maga patriotism." It's a self defeating contradiction that relies on delusion for acceptance, a figment of diseased minds.
Nah... he is keeping himself alive by saying bombastic things that keeps his reputation amongst the West quite low. There is no obvious successor to Putin which is by design. If anyone has latent successor characteristics, they are removed, unless they remove themselves. Saying these things is how Medvedev removes himself.Pickled midget Medvedev has his eye on that successor position. Continuously talking shit to those uppity euros is what he thinks will keep his name in the running.
Not sure, but I believe going after civilian infrastructure is classed as a war crime. Going after oil infrastructure should be ok since its directly funding and fueling the war.i wonder if they will go after coal power stations and major grid infrastructure.

As demonstrated by the russian hits on ukrainean electrical infrastructure, those are easily repaired, they do not need advanced technology. Attacks agains that infrastructure will probably happen, but first they hit the most important and irreplaceble rafineries. They hit the distilation towers, which are done uniquely for each refinery and even in normal peace times, the time to build these is up to 3 years. Under sanctions it's almost impossible, because without western tech, they are unable to repair them. So unless they bypass sanctions, if those towers are taken out, there will hamper substantially the ability to produce different fractions of oilsmore refineries hit up,

I hope they do
A coal turbine will take years to replace. Ukraine also had the entire west shipping transformers for them.As demonstrated by the russian hits on ukrainean electrical infrastructure, those are easily repaired, they do not need advanced technology.

Probably going to see the Russians copy the Ukrainian mobile machine gun teams soon because they can't pull AD out of occupied Ukraine to resource this. If permitted to continue the civilian economy will eventually see shortages of gasoline and aviation fuels which is a problem.
