Russia's annexation of 4 Ukrainian regions...will China take notice?

"In a press conference held in Moscow today, international observers pointed out the facts of pressure on participants in referendums by the Kyiv regime, and stressed that the organization of voting in referendum operations is in accordance with international standards."

Who are these observers? Who sent them? What agencies do they represent? The very fact it was claimed the people where under no pressure simply does not reflect reality, such as the fact of the tremendous pressure of an invasion going on.

Amd yet Russia state media seems to be the only one with mentioning it, with a lot of other sources I have never heard of discussing it, and the problems of Putin's claims.

By appointing friends to positions of power he has destroyed his military with graft. This has been demonstrated on the battlefield. Its reasonable to ask how many of Russia's nukes are even functional. Have they been kept clean and wires replaced regularly? I am not convinced of that anymore. This would sound far fetched were it not for the bizarre problems with the rest of his military.

That's similar to what what Stalin did before WW II. Only in his case, he purged most of his capable generals. If it wasn't for the help of the US and Britain, he would have lost. What help does Putin have now on the battlefield?

Sadly, no one will want to be first to lay down nuclear arms voluntarily.

To do it in tandem there would have to be some sort of trust involved on both sides that each would hold up their end. If we're talking about the US and Russia, neither of us are anywhere near that point.

I cant understand how i was fooled before to think Putin wants a better world, i am ashamed of thinking he was good. Putin is pure evil, that is what he is.

It would be very difficult in today's world, that's true.
