But the five year plan had to be fulfilled.

The time so start planning for Russia's inevitable collapse is now.
It is a thoroughly failed state already but with nukes. Imagine up to 80 nuclear Somalias in Eurasia.

Yesterday @benjaminwittes' contribution to @RatlSecurity's "hot takes contest" offered management of the inevitable collapse of Russia as a failed state comparable to climate change as the biggest security issue of the next many decades, bigger than China

Hard to believe but actually it’s no surprise for us in CEE: “What? You primitives in this country I came to as an economic immigrant don’t speak Russian!?”
RT @petite_michelle: They are like that in every country. IN EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY they come to live. #visabanforrussians is non negotiable.

A Russian with his Russian car plates physically attacks a man in *Latvia* for a Slava Uraïna sticker.
Guess he didn’t get the memo on an EU tourist visa making him a democrat and civilized.
What do the Latvian police say?
RT @latvijas_vate: полиция удалила вчерашнее видео, на котором водитель майбаха с российскими номерами в Риге напал на водителя машины с надписью Slava Ukraini, но интернет всё помнит

Under the Czech presidency the EU for once is being made to think ahead and not just react too late or continue to push some old, long-stalled strictly national agenda item as we’ve seen in too many recent presidencies.
Leadership instead of arrogance.

Poor oligarchs. The world feels for them and their harsh plight.
The tycoons are bitter about sanctions that have left them ostracised in the west and impotent at home

Short thread from Mig Greengard, @chessninja on Putin's threats
RT @chessninja: I love the way the Kremlin doubles down on the open threats and blackmail when the western appeasement crew is yakking about how Putin is misunderstood. No, he's a thug and wants everyone to know it.

A brilliant thread on a not so liberal “journalist” about whom there’s been much misguided bleating. He’s neither a liberal nor a journalist.
RT @kamilkazani: Yesterday Ivan Safronov was sentenced to 22 years in jail. Russian liberal media describe him as a "journalist" picturing it as Kremlin's crackdown on political opposition. That's misinformation. Safronov *used* to be a journalist. Then he worked in Roskosmos as Rogozin's adv…

RT @SofiOksanen: I'm grateful to #Ukraine, because:
- I've been writing about #Russia'n colonialism and its consequences for 20 years. I define myself as post-colonial author. But when I said that aloud, Western journalists very seldom understood what I meant: (1/x)🧵

Quite a conversation with this orc on the Kherson front
RT @wartranslated: Clearly not as rosy for the Russians in the Kherson area as they paint it in the Russian telegram channels.
As we find from this intercepted call, there is constant HIMARS shelling, jets leave to never come back, and bridges are under permanent danger of strikes and explosions.
