Why give attention to these women who are clearly trying to play victim where they are not harmed in any way, unlike the Urkainians? If it were the other way around and she was Ukranian, then she would have been shot instantly. I m sure that when the Ukrainian army is gone then they have nothing but praise for their beloved putin.

Great coverage, as always! It does make me wonder: under the laws of war, the resources of an occupied region cannot be used for the benefits of the occupier, but they can (and should) be used to maintain / rebuild infrastructure in the occupied region. So from my reading, Ukraine would have full rights to tax all gas passing through the Sudzha pumping station, and if Russia refuses to pay, diverting a percentage of the gas to Ukraine to cover their debt, so long as the funds went to reconstruction in the Kursk People's Republic. So Russia blows up a building, bridge, or whatnot, Ukraine could rebuild it with Russian gas money. And surely Europe would take Ukraine's side in that dispute, only crediting Russia for delivering the non-taxed portion of the gas. I wonder if they'll end up taking that approach? The whole thing will be moot regardless at the end of the year when the transport contracts expire. Wherein, by all means, reverse the pumps, pump high pressure air into the Bratstvo pipeline at maximum power while the Russian pumping station at Mari El is off, do maximal damage (to the pipeline, Mari El pumping station, and Urengoy gas field), haul off the valuable pumping to safety, and start legal proceedings to seize it as part of reparations. Sad that Urengoy is an older gas field without that much life left in it anyway...

Why would not they? In November 2021 CIA director Burns visited Moscow where a pact was made similar to Molotov-Ribbentrop. Putin agreed not to invade NATO and Burns promised that US will assure no strikes into Russian territory. On Aug 8 Putin made an address where he characterized the invasion as "provocation". He was laught upon by entire world like was is talking about. Putin knew precisely what he was talking about: these words were directed at Biden administration you promised and broke your promise. Unfortunately for Putin Biden has been defunkt for a month. Most telling is the fact that once Biden was out Ukraine immediately launched the offensive.

Power in Russia’s authoritarian political system is concentrated in the hands of President Vladimir Putin. With subservient courts and security forces, a controlled media environment, and a legislature consisting of a ruling party and pliable opposition factions, the Kremlin manipulates elections and suppresses genuine opposition. Rampant corruption facilitates shifting links among state officials and organized crime groups. Since the regime launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, authorities have intensified restrictions on individual rights and liberties in order to stifle domestic dissent.

1. Not "being interested in politics" is/was a mean of self-preservation in an authoritarian, police state. You'll hear this phrasing a lot if you watch street interviews, whether in Moscow or in remote places in the Federation (look for Daniil Orain 1420). 2. What did conflict with the journalist's ethic is not presenting visual testimonies to, or inform those civilians, it is to ask them questions about it (or recording their reaction), while having occupier soldiers in arms around, even after both parties denied being actively intimidating/intimidated. All things considered, it is a bit like being interrogated by the police without the assistance of a lawyer. I find this journalist very pro.

It was only after the allies forced the germans to look at what they'd done in the concentration camps that they no longer could be in denial of the evil they had unleashed upon the world. Russians has to be confronted with what they've done, bring them to Bucha, Vuhledar, Kharkiv, make them look at the torture chambers and mass graves and make them watch the atrocities russian soldiers themselves filmed and proudly showed to the world.

@@DJSockmonkeyMusic It's not as easy as either all knew, or no-one knew. The closer you were to a camp, the more likely you knew what was going on. And while "nothing good happens there to you" was common knowledge, the details and the amount of cruelty were almost certainly not. Most people claiming they did not know what exactly happened in the camps is probably not a lie - but of course it's likely that a lot of people who did know lied. Also, there's a difference between having the knowledge of "those are hard labor camps", or "they're working people to death", or even "they're killing people there" - and seeing it with your own eyes.

And if the Great Leader ever needs to shift blame, he scapegoats an underling. This sort of behavior is deeply ingrained in such societies.

The civilians are probably not under direct pressure, but it is obvious that the presence of people with guns alters anyone, anywhere. Even when they are your own people, one changes demeanor naturally to the situation, so an occupying force of any kind will affect what people say, regardless of how well the occupiers behave. Its basic psychology, and why prisoner intervews always is understood as passively pressured, regardless of interview tecniques and how well the prisoner is taken care of. That said, they still are valuable for insights, as long as one keeps that dynamic in mind.

I do have sympathy for them as well. They are old women living in a low pop area of a dictatorship. You disassociate, live your life and you don't ask questions, even though you know that something is going on. They are probably lying, but it's important to understand that they are NOT the devil, and that they did not wish for anyone to suffer.

The Russian soldiers typically killed everyone left behind in the occupied area; the big difference was that the Ukrainians treated the Russians very warmly, like brothers, under the Ukrainian occupation at Kursk. Russians and Ukrainians are brothers, but one man came between them: Putin; he spewed hate and war.

Well said. You are exactly right. We all need each other and for one individual to cause all this mayhem just boggles me. The rest of the world should be ashamed to stand idle to this.
