Yeah that Schrodinger Russia again: it is being stuck for years, unable to take some small village in Donetsk region, and simultaneously is a grave threat that looms over Europe, ready to quickly overrun their capital cities.

It’s not that Russia is strong because of its economy or its military. The point is that it is strong like a criminal, a mugger with a knife on the streets of Frankfurt. Or, if you will, a pigeon playing chess with you—it will scatter all the pieces and defecate on the board, then strut around like a winner with its chest puffed out. That’s Russia for you; it will simply use the dirtiest tactics that Europeans aren’t used to. Also look at the EU’s military exercises—the soldiers aren’t really ready for drone attacks yet.

> it will simply use the dirtiest tactics that Europeans aren’t used to.

In 21st century warfare, what exactly is considered a 'dirty', and what is considered an 'honorable' tactic? Is there an objective definition?

Thank you for proving my point. Great example of double-think!

Yup, they still haven't run out of those washing machine chips they use, Russia must be washing machine superpower.

...at least if you believe EU/UA propaganda.

It's funny how they yesterday or day before yesterday annouced 21st round of Russian sanctions.

"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."

Imagine you are so dumb, you do it 21 times and expect voters will take yous eriously and keep supporting if they paid it 21 times from their own wallets.
