I'm disappointed, but not surprised, so many voted against that amendment.

14,000 people died in Eastern Ukraine between 2014 and 2022, including thousands of Russian speaking civilians, killed by both the Ukrainian armed forces and Russian backed separatists. What propaganda do you think I've swallowed because this is simply easily verifiable facts reported in places such as The Guardian.

I don't consider this to be legitimate grounds to illegally invade Ukraine, I'm simply stating this occurred and Russia gave it as a stated reason.
Only last week we found out that a lot of the so called victims in Eastern Ukraine were actually Russian actors in the pay of Prigozhin's media companies. Just like the so called "separatists" were pretty much all Russians military and Wagner forces with just a handful of Ukrainians acting as a front but under the pay and control of Russia.

Turkey should call Putin's bluff and say their ships will escort all grain shipments in and out of Odesa.

Russia will be asking Africa for food aid in a few months
Hence why Russia has targeted the port at Odessa instead.
TBH I don’t think many understood just how badly Putin had weakened the Russian military.

The warrant is specific to child abduction iirc rather than the war as a whole.

Bloody Swiss man, they are always there to take the money no matter who it comes from and claim they are neutral 
Putin invested a lot in the military from what I understand, a lot of the money was just wasted due to corruption etc

I think Putin wants a reaction from the peoples of other countries. If he forces inflation to happen again, forces countries in to starvation, then I guess he is hoping to turn the people in the West against the war.

I get the feeling Erdogan wont like having his bluff called by a fellow strongman dictator. If Turkey fails to intervene it makes them look incredibly weak. Unless of course he can spin some kind of narrative I'd say Turkey has no choice but to get involved.
