Re: Russian-Ukranian War: Geopolitical Fallout

It is a serious escalation. Though it is moot, Dugin had never even met Putin. I don't think Russians have any doubts that this was done by the CIA/Ukraine. It will make a lot of fence sitters in Russia back the war. Short of using nukes, how much can Russia actually escalate its war effort? They'v...

Re: Russian-Ukranian War: Geopolitical Fallout

Russia has moved a few MIG 31's with Kinzhal hypersonic missils to Kalingrad. On the way , they also seem to have weaved into either Lithuania or FInland's airspace.

Strategic messaging in progress.

Missiles put every C2 center in NATO land within a few mins of retaliatory non nuclear strike.
