Those sound like open targets for Ukraine.

Oh they won't find them because Russia doesn't have any diesel, they've been out for weeks now.

    Those two fuckers are ruining our countries. I can't wait when they will kick the bucket, but I suspect they are just the tip of the iceberg and nothing would change significantly.

    Even if this happens, it's like 13 hours worth of diesel. It's a drop in the ocean -- it's not moving prices.

    I'm sure that's going to last a long time. This isn't about solving the fuel crisis this is about giving Russia some money.

    Russia can’t supply its own market.

    I mean why not hit up South Korea, sounds like they've been supplying Russia... Don't we have like a shitload of military bases there? Idk. I've said for ages when anyone I know says something like "Trump is so dumb it doesn't make sense what he's doing," well- imagine he's working for Russia. Does it make sense now?

    Just because Trump said it doesn’t make it true.
