Rubbish. Not while Russian government officials, capitalists and TV propagandists all have real estate, children and Bank accounts in Europe
Which Russian government officials have any investments in Europe at this point?
Yelena Mizulina comes to mind
Do you see her as a major driving force in Russian politics that would decide whether there would be strikes on Europe though?
You’d be surprised. Putin’s children are raised in Switzerland, and I bet their life is not funded by a hardworking mother.
I don’t know if you’ve been living in a cave for the past 4 years, but relations between Russia and Europe aren’t what they used to be. Also, are you suggesting that rich people in Russia can’t live well without needing Europe?
I’ve been a Russian living in Europe and I follow the news closely both from European and Russian independent media. The cash flow is complicated, but it exists, and Russian oligarchs/politicians still own property and support their families in Europe, even if they are suctioned themselves. Also, it’s not a reason for Putin not to attack anyone if thar would feed his ego and help to keep his position.
It’s pretty clear that the economic gravity in Russia has shifted towards the Global South at this point. So, in terms of political influence, Europe is largely irrelevant now because over the past four years there plenty of new businesses filling the niches left by decoupling from the west. It’s in their interest to ensure western competition doesn’t come back. And today they have far more influence in politics than a handful of people who still have any financial ties to Europe.
Russia will bomb US military industrial complex donation centers, Foreign Minister says
Are these the same weapons of mass destruction factories NATO used to arm it’s jihadi militias in Syria, Iraq and Libya
Russia says a lot of things, but they increasingly fail at projecting power. There are few red lines left.
If they would really see that as a solution why would they talk about it instead of just doing it?
Yep, exactly. Talk is cheap
Keep talking that macho talk while living in glass houses.
I mean, sovereign states are a potential military target, so who would have thought that includes weapons factories.
Which sovereign states?
Moldova, Ukraine, The Baltic States, Europe as a whole…
But are those sovereign?
“Ukraine gov is totally not a puppet of usa, I’ll prove it with some unrelated idiotic comic”
Libs don’t know how proof works
“Waah my narrative is failing, quick lets do another cia talking point”
The whole damn world! The rooskies are gonna attack everybody cause they’re orcs!
Do it. Close both straits and shut down the global economy at the same time. This life sucks and it’s getting worse. Just put the economy out of its misery, cheers! We’ll rebuild from the ashes.
not if those ashes are radioactive.
more arms to build with
