A wealthy joker is still a joker.
Consider the war in Yandex - https://yandex.com/search/?text=ukraine+war&lr=21121&search_source=yacom_desktop_common
Why would I? I think that there is plenty of Ruzzian version everywhere. I guess that is the price to pay for having media that allows pretty much anyone to post pretty much anything.
The front is pretty much stalled, the Ruzzia economy is holding - but also degrading, but what I find interesting is that Ruzzia's effort in Ukraine has lost them Syria and the naval base they had and now may perfectly loose them their uber-friendly Ayatollahs.
Since you aren't really that interested, you probably wouldn't check Yandex.
If you were more interested, you would see that China is supplying Iran, probably because of its military agreements with Russia.
Just another passing phase as Russia attempts to make peace in the world rather than use Oreshnik. But if they wanted peace, why would they keep bombing Kiev... more or less out of existence? Ukraine is asking for it, that's why? Sooner or later the videos that show what is going on in Kiev will prove that Ukraine (US) defenses are just about useless.
Poor Zelensky. He has to cover himself with lies upon lies... every lie a little stronger of a lie than the last. When his people finally realize it - if they ever do - they will be gunning for him. How fast can he make his escape? Is he faster than Gaddafi was in Libya?
China is supplying Iran, India and China are buying Ruzzian oil at a marverllous discount, Ruzzia transfered missile tech to Iran (even experts in nuclear weapons went into Iran). China passed both nuclear and missile technology to North Korea as the perfect "proxy" to use nukes against Japan or even others without getting officially involved...
Any regime that feels threatened by the US simply groups together. Except perhaps India and - to a point China = that simply take advantage of the stupidity of others (e.g. Putin is stupid enough to get his oil sanctioned, we will buy it at 50% discount to market).
