Russia's vast geography is an important determinant of its economic activity, with the country holding a large share of the world's natural resources.[31] It has been widely described as an energy superpower;[32] as it has the world's largest natural gas reserves,[33] 2nd-largest coal reserves,[34] 8th-largest oil reserves,[35] and the largest oil shale reserves in Europe.[36] It is the world's leading natural gas exporter,[37] the 2nd-largest natural gas producer,[38] and the 2nd-largest oil exporter,[39] and producer.[40] Russia's foreign exchange reserves are the world's 4th-largest.[41] It has a labour force of roughly 70 million people, which is the world's 7th-largest.[42] Russia is the world's 3rd-largest exporter of arms.[43] The oil and gas sector accounted up to roughly 40% of Russia's federal budget revenues, and up to 60% of its exports in 2019.[44] Russia has the world's 5th-largest number of billionaires. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Russia# the fact people think this isn't about energy is strange. Ukraine has immense potential for investment with its vast oil and gas resources, ranking second across Europe for gas reserves. Shown in Figure 3 below, these resources are divided into three major regions: the Dnipro-Donetsk basin, the Carpathian region in western Ukraine, and the Black Sea and Crimea region. The Dnipro-Donetsk basin holds the majority of these resources. In terms of production, natural gas takes up 89%, oil 7.9%, and gas condensate takes up 3.1% in terms of hydrocarbon production (U.S. Department of Commerce, 2021; Renkin, 2019; The Energy Consulting Group, 2015). Consequently, the Ukrainian government considers the oil and gas industry as a strategic sector; with the majority of production belonging to state-owned companies accounting for approximately 74%, domestic private firms accounting for 18% and other private firms accounting for 3% of production. Additionally, Ukraine has numerous pipelines enabling Russian oil and gas to be pumped into Europe via Ukraine as shown in Figure 4. Ukraine receives an approximate US$1.5 billion in transit fees from Russian gas being pumped through these transmission lines (Renkin, 2019; Intelligence Fusion, 2021; Schuler, 2014; Yermolenko and Panchenko, 2021). https://www.intelligencefusion.co.uk/insights/resources/intelligence-reports/russia-ukraine-donbass-conflict-threats-to-oil-and-gas/ This is that part where the strawmen or goal post moves come.

The same voices are still saying there is no evidence. never mind they took the first stories as fact and ran to "protest"

Or the oil field/pipeline in Donbas and strategic Crimea. at least judging by the actions of the military actions prior to the drone attack on the kremlin.

What's the end goal if anything can be a weapon? Right now, its guns, what's next?

lol, back to calling anyone they dont agree with, nazis.

words vs actions. Remember the MOAB in Afghanistan? Iranian terrorist general? 4 years of No theatre expansion.

"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny." "This is federal property, going to call the police." Double Ironic as he stumps for defunding police.

Has he ever apologized for supporting his Racist uncle? House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries under fire for defending uncle's antisemitic comments while in college (nypost.com) https://jewishjournal.com/news/united-states/357918/dem-house-leader-defended-uncle-and-farrakhan-in-1992-following-antisemitic-controversies/ same thing? LMAO. you cant make it up is that the final call from the struggle session?

Like in a public square. public apology? Struggle Session? got to attack them four olds.

your right. its just two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner. “As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.” ― H.L. Mencken, On Politics: A Carnival of Buncombe

Thats epic and the only logical response to a "journalist" trying to create a story

A story that probably never happened ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

LOL. this thread did not age well. His domestic and foreign policies are pure disasters on every level.

Its looking more and more like that hospital that was hit. was a weapons depot and was from a Hamas Rocket.

Something about allowing someone to anger you, makes them your master.

Who are "they" that did all these horrible things?

its a tough economy. Looks like the JR orange dude is making those videos for simps to comment on. https://www.bitchute.com/video/oxaqWXVP5rn7/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-12339115/I-earn-5-400-day-dressing-elf-eating-fake-ice-creams-TikTok-fad-sees-NPC-streamers-making-fortune-acting-like-video-game-characters-millions-online-fans.html IE, NPC streamers.

Dangit, made me google something. no lie, that trend needs to go away.

The mongers are all excited about escalation. his could "dramatically change the entire strategy and tactics of the war," refocusing attention away from Ukraine's grueling land war to long-range strikes, Dan Rice, a former adviser to Ukraine's top soldier, General Valery Zaluzhnyi
