Sigh, you made me want to re-read the book for the thousandth time. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
I’d love a navy guy to jump in and tell stories about trailing Russian subs for months without being noticed. I know you’re here, tell us the story! | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Floridumb is full-on maga and maga is full-on putin-fluffers. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
I have a suspicion that these ships are escaping Putin’s regime. Some smart admirals decided to pretend to go to Cuba but in fact surrender to Yankees rather than go feed the fishes in the Black Sea. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Was thinking of the same thing: [https://youtu.be/5WkLoOvm2Yo?t=110](https://youtu.be/5WkLoOvm2Yo?t=110) | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Started good, jumped the shark at the end. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
I wouldn’t be surprised if a Seawolf or Virginia class sub was trailing them. They likely had a shadow the moment they left port. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
I don't think it is putting the fear in American's like they would hope. Have a fun boat ride I guess guys. Countries conduct military drills all the time, they just trying to re-hash cold war fear. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
You mean a Virginia class? Cause they only built, like, three seawolfs. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Yeah, I feel that really should've been the wakeup call to the US that Putin wasn't on the up and up. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
The Russian navy has been pretty bad, like forever. Or at least since the Russo Japanese war.

In a report written this week you can be sure someone is making comment on the condition of shaft bearings and screw finish of the Russian ships. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Imagine being so superior to measly Ukraine that you have to hold your maneuvers thousands of miles away to be safe… Oh how the mighty have fallen. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

They also have a history of the CIA attempting to get a hold of them such as the Kursk and K 129. So there's a good chance they know what to look for even if they weren't loud | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Weird, I remember it first getting attention when ISIS was using quadcopters in Syria. One case that stands out in my mind was the drone dropping a mortar on a Russian air base in Syria, shredding a couple aircraft IIRC

>It started during the Azerbaijan/Armenia skirmishes
I think that did not really prepare the armies of the world for how drones are being used in Ukraine. Cheap throwaway drone swarms vs. expensive purpose built drones. The scale is completely different. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
That and the relative lack of corporations make Cuba the closest thing to time travel an American can experience | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
The russian navy is made of tugs from here to Timbuktu | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
That's not the case with the Navy. Subs and ships are too expensive, too large, and take too long to build to be secret like that. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Your underestimating how much control the Russian media has over their people. If that ever happens - you can be sure Putin will be accusing the west of sabotaging their ship and taking an entire frigate as POW. It would be ironic as the US and RU are not at war and the saved sailors are free to return to Russia.
In a hypothetical world lets say these ships sink and they are saved by the US, and the US offers them asylum- it would be very interesting to see how many will actually return to their big-ol-shit-hole. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

What Bullshit. Nobody is making any money doing this.
The EU has a government budget of about € 2 trillion.
€130 million is 6.5 hundredths of 1%. Of that budget.
People should look at what will qualify them to be granted a Visa.
If they will not qualify, and the EU will not let them in,
why spend the money in an exercise in futility. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |

How would we rebuild the country if it isn't able to defend itself and stops being independent? The first priority is defending Ukraine after that we focus on rebuilding it. Simple logic. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |

So much money has been poofed by Ukraine, with little to no tracking on where any of it is going
And it's cheered for | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
There's risk no matter what you do. If you allow Russia to use a tactical nuke, you are now saying to everyone else "As long as you use the small nukes, nothing will happen to you". By keeping the response conventional, your de-escalating will making it very clear to the North Koreas and Pakistans out there that nukes should only be used as a last resort. Force is the only thing dictators and autocrats understand. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
I was using NATO as a general example, not as an explanation of the current situation.
If you would like an explanation of why what Russia is doing is an illegal agreement, that would be because Russia's actions are in direct violation of the Minsk agreements that Russia and Ukraine signed in 2014 to prevent any future military aggression by Russia. Which Russia broke almost immediately, well in advance of the current war they launched two years ago. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Russias population will never stand for a full acale mobilization which is what it will take to conquer Ukraine at this point. You don’t need crazy terrain for real trench warfare to make fighting so slow and hard that it equates to having unique terrain.
The Russian population is only like 3x of Ukraines. That is not enough of a difference when Russians are fighting for no justifiable reason and the Ukrainians are fighting for the survival of their country
There’s already been one attempted coup that stemmed from this. If Russia escalates and has to start using a draft/conscripts on a large | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
You said it’s the citizens of Russias money, I’m saying they never had the money to begin with, since Russia doesn’t take care of their own.
Honestly pretty easy to understand, I even wrote it in English. Would you prefer Gaelic or Latin instead? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |

Not from the common people no obviously not, I'm talking about the kinds of people who have money to invest in other countries.

better to keep the profits in Russia then? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
At the scale of world power conflict $1.5B is approximately $0B. The only reason this is news is it is seized Russian assets. I don't understand why they just didn't wait until they could hand over an actual significant amount to make a bigger splash. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

Lmao | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
That's awesome! Hopefully Ukraine can buy more advanced weaponry, larger stocks of ammunition/ordinance, and any kind of technology that continues to grind and chew up Russian military forces. The continued meat grinder will eventually have its desired effect, when moral amongst Russian military start to sink to levels that mutinies start occurring. Couple that with staggering Russian equipment losses that cannot be sustained, even with lethal military aid from China, Iran and North Korea; thus forcing Russian forces to use outdated and inappropriate military equipment. Russia will definitely feel this, economically and militarily. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
And now they have a Russian branded version that has almost every menu item but keeps all profits inside Russia | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
So you're telling me that state sponsored retaliation through repossession if your home country is against Russian expansion... doesn't inspire outside investment? Curious.... how curious. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
they are talking about replacing doors and windows, they aren't rebuilding homes from the ground up. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Thats a huge news in a while now. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
How is this legal? In this conflict we cheer for person A so we will just harm person B as much as we can.
This way nobody will trust their assets to the EU anyway, especially lately with Switzerland losing it's mature neutrality in world conflicts.
There should be peace talks and frozen assets could be used as leverage to steer Russia towards peace.
If a war breaks out, people like Macron and politicians should fight in the first rows. They don't understand how to solve conflicts and they should feel the consequences of their work first. But alas, we will send Jimmy and Billy to the frontlines and let Mary become a widow. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Can you elaborate on that? I'm not sure what you're referring to. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

> Everyone on God’s green earth knows that Afghanistan is not conquerable.
except it has been conquered many times, last time successfully by the British.
>If Napoleon or Hitler beat the Russians I could give you that but this is an entirely different theater.
I give you World war 1......where Russian army also, gloriously lost and ate shit and had to beg Imperial Germany and Austro Hungary for peace and surrender massive chunks of its territory.
I like how you completely and purposely ignore the wars Russia lost, and only try to mention the ones it won.
Russian-Japanese war of 1904 : **Russia looses and gets its ass kicked by Japan.**
World war 1 from 1914-1918 : **Russia completely and utterly looses and gets ass kicked by Austro-Hungary and Germany**.
Estonian and Latvian wars of independence against Soviet Union in 1918-1919 : **Soviet Russians get their asses kicked and are thrown out of Baltic lands by Estonian and Latvian armies**.
Polish-Soviet war in 1920 : **Russia looses and gets its ass kicked by Poland**.
Winter war of 1939 : **Soviets try to take Finland, completely fail and suffer huge losses that weaken their entire army and air force for years to come.**
1970-1980 Soviet war in Afghanistan : **Russia looses horribly and runs away with nothing to show for it.**
1994-1996 first Chechen war : **Russian federation army looses, gets its shit kicked in by Chechens, and have to beg Chechens for peace treaty.**
**Russia never looses wars** huh??? How many is that they lost in the last 100 years, like 7 different lost wars Russia fought?? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
This move is part of a larger effort to make Russia pay for its actions. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Might be a bulk buy thing. Like 1 car is 1000, 100 cars is 80000. Bad math I know | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

Every Country holding Russian assets should do this. Sanctions against them is bullshit when India is buying up Russian oil. Go for it fund the war against Russia with it's own cash. Karma. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
you know, you dont have some sort of magic source, some sort of secret society. You are just a clueless dude on the internet. But hey, you have your opinion and thats great, you can have your own opinion. But when you voice it, dont get mad at others for criticizing it if there is criticism due. You even stumbled over your rebuttal linking a thing that showed that you are wrong.
Right now you are literally dying on the hill trying to prove to others that when Ukraine stops corruption, it somehow equals to them being corrupt. It literally reads like you just want certain things to be true and are upset that they arent. Which in turn means you either side with Russia (Russian bot), or are siding with the people who want to use Ukraine as a political play piece (MAGA crowd). Now, while you do that, just ask yourself why you are so eager to bat for them, will they be feeding your family? Are they paying you directly?
Oh and this "last year" and "long ago" bullshit doesnt fly, you know why? Because literally everyone agrees Ukraine was super corrupt just a few years ago. But they have made huge strides, and there are tangible things to show for it. So dont point to ancient times and claim them as current times. Is there still corruption? Yes, but hopefully any attempts at it will be stopped. Just like there is corruption in the West, but its stopped (most of the time). Let me point you to this instance of recent corruption in the US: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5udtSQ-LtM0
Doesnt mean US is a corrupt country and everything is stolen. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Problem is they will just do the same to us.
We need a peace plan and then they can pay towards it. No point escalating. Ukraine can’t be rebuilt whilst it’s facing the Russians. They could lose a lot more yet. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Not true. The vast majority stayed. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Yep you're right, but basically if you have a car you paid for legally, but say the car cost 100k and you are a drug dealer with no other job. They can confiscate the car with proof you earned the money for it illegally. Inheritance they wouldn't prove that so would be left alone | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
That approach hasn’t worked. Russia has been ok. The world is bigger than the west and even the western firms have stayed in Russia mostly. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

[Here](https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/legal-challenges-presented-seizing-frozen-russian-assets) is the very long explanation.
The odd part is Russia has seized many Western companies within Russia. So the question is why can Russia seize but the West has legal challenges? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
