Russia has singled out European firms in its latest drive to strip foreign owners of the right to manage their Russian assets, government and company sources said, with the Kremlin accusing the European Union of involvement in the war in Ukraine.

    That was a reaction to another round of sanctions they just implemented against Russia.
    But sure, sell it like another unprovoked Russian escalation.
    And ‘let them be scared’?
    Can the scaremongering get any more literal?

        that’s right, ebil Putin just woke up one morning and decided to invade Ukraine for no reason at all because Ruzzians are just a mindless horde of orcs coming from the jungle to threaten the great European garden

            Merkel and Zelensky have admitted that they never had any intention of honoring Minsk, but instead use it as a stalling tactic while further arming Ukraine.

            This is the war the imperialists wanted: to poke the bear until it inevitably responded, and then claim that the response was “unprovoked”.

            1.5M of your comrades to the meatgrinder

            They’re not my comrades, and meat grinder/meat wave was bullshit, fascist propaganda during WWII and is still bullshit, fascist propaganda today.

            NATO overthrowing a legitimate government to install a fascist regime and potentially put nukes next to Russian border does in fact justify the reaction Russia had, which is the same reaction any other major power would have in the same situation. Russia did not choose war over diplomacy, and tried to do diplomacy for nearly a decade.

        You must be an october 7 guy.
        Definitely nothing happened before that right?
        Definitely not a nazi coup funded and orchestrated by the west.
        I bet you were still pissing your diapers in 2014

            You seems to like diverting to avoid explaining the inconvenient facts.
            Nothing new I guess, you people have been doing it since 2014.
            I’ve seen better nazi collaborators

                you’re making it personal again and deflecting.
                You are not worth debating since you have nothing to offer of relevance. I do not claim to know you and don’t care too.
                I corrected your BS and that’s enough for me.
                You simply can not go into the nazi coup and its causes and consequences because you know you will fail.
                You’re just like the genociders who know their genocide is indefensible and start screaming about antisemitism to get out of it.
