    This is your proof? A handful of individuals criticize it in the criticism section? If there weren't opposition to the sanctions, I'd be extremely surprised.

    This is fucking hilarious. Here's this guy saying something that's wrong and instead of crawling out of the thread in silence he's even arrogant about it.

    Hey, I'm not the one telling the other to shut up.
    No. I am telling you to shut up.
    Thought I was clear enough.

    Yeah, that's right. Some individuals disagree with policies. Like the man that was just gunned down in Russia. Who would have thunk that nations with millions of people would have opposing viewpoints.

    Here's the guy with a pathological inhibition for evidence, telling other people with it to shut up. Brilliant.

    And I'm saying that you're pathetic for it. If you had any sensible argument, you wouldn't be trying to silence me. But it's ok, we all make mistakes, I won't hold it against you.

    What proof? I am only showing that you basically do the same you accuse "Russian" posters of: posting falsehoods (which you would know if you even had READ the article you linked)...

    How can I silence you. I proved you wrong and you still talk. There's no silencing you.
    You'll just keep on talking. Spreading shit. Never mind that what you said is wrong. You keep talking.

    Let's keep it simple, is there, or is there not a quote, in the first paragraph of your link, that states she said "she is effectively being held prisoner by Russian investigators".

    It's a yes or no answer.

    You're claiming that I was posting falsehoods because the oil prices are the main culprit, and that the sanctions were predominantly US pushed. The EU have done a significant amount themselves.

    Both these sanctions applied to Russia and Russia's import bans in response have contributed to the collapse of the ruble and the 2014–15 Russian financial crisis
    I never claimed the sanctions were alone in hurting Russia's economy, but they certainly have helped.

    You're the one bringing up internal criticism and opinion as proof that EU didn't push for harder sanctions.

    Are you even able to read: let me link to the post I made before: the third round they did NOT pushed harder than the US as you claimed, the opposite even (as showed in the paragraph Criticism). I never said they were predominantly pushed by the US...

    You're so strange. I am talking about how EU was fucked up against US because they played to their tune and you keep blabbering "b-b-b-but Russia!"
    It doesn't make me feel better that Russian economy is fucked up as well, because I care for my salary in euro, not in roubles, which devalued against US-valued goods a lot. And for me weak rouble is great, the more my buyer's capacity is increased. And it doesn't make me feel better ukraine economy is in ruin with their 30% inflation against 15% in Russia and hryvnia devalued twice even against already devalued rouble.

    So you've confused the reason with an effect. No wonder you've failed.

    Yeah dude. There are a lot of fighters coming from Russia. I've personally have seen a video (i'll try and find for you) of one of the persons responsible for the recruitment that they can't keep up with the Russian applications.

    She is already flying to Kiev as we speak, so quit your b****ing and stop trying to convince yourself how TOTALITARIAN Russia is.

    yeah, you can take my word for it.

    And we start the whole conversation again with people posting "... but Russia" all the time and linking to articles a half year old which have been discussed endlessly. Did Iron Fist manage to get a whole new breed of friends to post the same bullshit he did?

    About half of team Russia's defense is "But America"

    There is a difference though, and I'll try to explain it: Russians KNOW there is a balk in their eyes, Team US doesn't.

    Is that why the USA got involved about Russian intervention in Ukraine?
