Wheres Mikhail Prokorov to make sense of all this??

Me two days ago when I saw Roman Abramovich getting sanctioned and his Football Club being frozen out…

Damn I wish the Brooklyn Nets were still owned by that Russian dude.

Oligarchs doing everything they can to sneak a way out…

Man took a note of suicide squad

Solid idea in theory. A smart prisoner would just take the weapons and escape somewhere.

I wonder if he executed their sentence for them. If he did then they have no reason to try to flee.

Escape to where though. Whole country is shut down.

My thing is, how a military super power that has only deployed 10/20% of its armed forces is now asking for assistance?

Also, why would a convicted felon run? Why not fight for their country/freedom and perhaps new life. Expecially if they were going to rot in prison.

Provocation is my guess

Idk the situation but if you offer me life in prison or a chance to kill some invaders with a clean record I’m going for the latter if I have nothing to lose already.

Plus you get out of the prison which will probably be bombed anyways.

All of these nukes from the Soviet Union have been keeping the Russian military intimidating this whole time.

They never found WMDs but these Nazis in the Azov battalion are in clear view this isnt no secret

you need to stop this

those russians in eastern ukraine piecing up the country for russia for the last decade are ultra nationalist nazis as well. wagner group - who made it possible and have people all over the world causing havoc? you think they're liberals and interested in democracy or something?

war is messy. man. ukraine has radical anti fascists and gay anarchists fighting alongside groups like azov. there is only one cause here and that's to get the russians out
