The Russian-Ukrainian War Thread

[crest]

I have no hate man. I just see strategy and defense interests. And of course its bad for Ukraine. I even said myself, that its the dirty work. I feel very sorry for that and wish it would be different. War and politics are dirty.

Good to hear man maby had the wrong impression just seemed like you cast all of Russia as the 1950s stereotypical evil guy. Russia has its probloms and it's areas of concern In how it acts but it's by and large a responsible state actor.

Then why does it send all those unhinged death threats to us? Medvedev for example is absolute unhinged.

Medvedev is unhinged that's his job to be the guy who says crazy things sort of a if you push us far enough we could do this type threat. But you know not actually from the state as for all the right reasons what Medvedev says is not the position of the state of Russia.

Also worth noting Russia basically never does what Medvedev says. He's mostly there to convey just how serious Russia could be on said issue

Well that's just the news guys getting clicks. In government people know who Medvedev is and that's he's just there to voice Russia's dissatisfaction with whatever it is. Honestly your newspapers should know that. Now if larinov said something like that it would be a big deal or of course Putin.

Medevedev also is forces kestic stuff in Russia when he wants a statement looking stronger but to also not have that statement be regarded as tru by other world leaders. Every goverment has these people. I'm sure you got people saying the e.u should invaded Russia and there definitely not speaking for the government

Spain has seized multiple russian vessels.

• Motor Yacht Tango — Owned/linked to Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg; seized in Palma de Mallorca under a Spanish court order at the request of U.S. authorities.
• Superyacht Valerie — Linked to Sergei Chemezov (head of state conglomerate Rostec); provisionally immobilised in Barcelona by Spanish authorities.
• Luxury yacht Lady Anastasia — Seized under EU sanctions in Spain; linked to Russian oligarch Aleksandr Mikheyev (head of Rosoboronexport).
• Superyacht Crescent — Reportedly detained in Spain (e.g., Tarragona) as part of sanction enforcement against oligarch-linked assets.

The Crescent alone has a value of almost 800 million €.

Spain seizes another Russian yacht believed to belong to an oligarch. (Published 2022)

The ship was impounded in the Spanish port of Tarragona pending an inspection to establish its exact ownership, Spain’s transport ministry said.

Clearly, I was not talking about the seized vessels of Russian oligarchs.

You have not answered my other questions either.
