I just heard Russias economy is stronger than ever and its selling all its oil to China, India and Turkey. In fact India is buying 25% more since the war started.

Bidens sanctions are a joke and now hes going to Saudi Arabia to beg for oil whilst we have vast reserves in the USA

Clown World!

Considering that Poland would not even allow a female checkers player to have her Russian flag on the table during a game - I somehow doubt that the situation with Russian flags in Poland is much better.

Thankfully the lady went on to beat her Polish counterpart, despite the best Polish efforts to discombobulate her with their retarded efforts.

Mind you - this was before the war even started.

I'm just miffed....Germany pays since decades regularly BILLIONS in helpmonies to the world.....money we could very well use here at home....and when there nothing comes back but attacks and accusations then we just should let them being depend on such "Menschenfreunde" like China....sooner or later they will see what it got them.

That might not be the most smart political action but then, I'm no politician! :)

Every year:

Germany will uphold its commitment to spend 0.7% of economic output, amounting to €23 billion, towards official development assistance (ODA).

Just think if all that American Aid money were spend on America's Vets, the American homeless and the American southern border Wall.
And with the rest double Social Security for us elders who paid into all out lives that won't begin to get what we paid in back.

Wouldn't that be using the old noggin'.
Meanwhile Ukraine's new American made rocket-launchers apparently have fired their first shots at Russian forces.

Every year

Holy sh!t.

Germany, with 1/4 the population, is almost equal to the United States. Bravo! Ok, Germany is unjustly included in this list - I will admit.

Small gripe, however. In the second chart you can see that Germany is still 0.09% short of 0.7% and is instead around 0.61%. This year, however, it's probably much higher than the ODA target of 0.7%.

...has something to do with the GDP.....similiar to the 2% defense....

So much help for so many years and most of these "stans" still look no better at all!

With all this help you could rebuild Europe from scratch five times over....

Are you seriously comparing a checkers game to a memorial of treacherously murdered people? And in any case Polish organisers were only complying with the rules of WADA...

"The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) has banned Russian sportsmen and women from competing under the Russian flag for two years, until 16 December 2022, including at the Tokyo Olympics."

... so there.

Polish flag has been removed from the War Memorial in Katyń

Kaczyński should give this Borisov fellow a medal. Seriously. If there were any "isolated pockets" of sympathy for Russia in Poland, he has just destroyed most of them. Brilliant move - not even from checkers but from grandmaster chess. *rolls eyes* Not even the guys from "Myśl Polska" will be able to justify that.

As I said, f*ck it - let's take our boys home.

You heard wrong Joker - Russia's economy is going down the outside wooden toilet. Tax receipts have been halved and they are close to default, investment has totally stopped, factories are idle and inflation is way higher.

India, china etc are of course buying the oil at big discounts - let them do it.

Obviously not. The intent is to use that "ridiculous" discrepancy in the weight between events, to show that Poland has a much more "holistic" approach of a total ban on all Russian symbols. In Russia, it would simply be unthinkable to disrespect Polish symbols in a trivial context like that - while the flag in Katyn is a message intended only for the PiS government. I didn't use destroyed Soviet War Memorials, doused ambassadors, and people knocking over headstones at cemeteries - because I didn't want the Paulina-crew to revv up the machine again.

If the checkers ban was not wrong, then why did Poland apologize?

Actually yes. We all know Russia has the Black Sea ports blocked, not Ukraine. So take the propaganda and keep it to yourself. No one cares about your opinion or theirs. How many times does this have to be said to you?

Sanctions do not create wheat problems. Blocked ports, and theft of wheat by Russians create wheat shortages. War creates wheat shortages when farmers can not plant. Russia is responsible for all of it. Period.

Putin's invasion disturbed here the political landscape

Indeed. There is currently a party conference of the German Left party (successor to the GDR-party SED) and there has been an increasing number of speakers openly denouncing Russia's "imperialistic war" against Ukraine. It remains to be seen if they get a majority, but it is nevertheless a sign of change. This is after all the party who regulary villainized NATO and the USA and talked of Russia as a victim.

I didn't use destroyed Soviet War Memorials

I said some time ago, on this very board, that I think soldiers' graves should be left in peace, but there is also no direct analogy here (occupying forces on the one hand and victims of murder on the other).

doused ambassadors

That wasn't even done by a Pole, was it?

people knocking over headstones at cemeteries

Lamentable occurence but again a failed analogy - the actions of idiot vandals on the one hand, and those of official Smolensk authorities on the other.

If the checkers ban was not wrong, then why did Poland apologize?

Don't know. I'm not a checkers fan. Still a completely different level of offence.

Only for the PiS government? Come on, Bobi... you're smarter than that and you know exactly what Katyń means for Poles (all of them - from far left to far right). As I said, Borisov has just made life for pro-Russian forces in Poland ("Myśl Polska", certain circles in Konfederacja, Panslavic maniacs etc.) a lot, and I mean a lot, harder.

Grandmaster move.

Bobko

Again, please don't think I'm comparing checkers to Katyn. As mentioned, point was to use asymmetry of events to show that level of antipathy towards symbols is probably more weighted to Polish side.

Left outside the discussion is how the evil twin in Warsaw has been telling every single European leader that will listen that Putin killed his brother. So... yes - the PiS government! They have wholesale appropriated the tragedy of Katyn and made it into a blunt political weapon to beat the Russians with. Kaczynski has more or less distilled it into a personal problem.

That's a great way to sh!t on the confidence building of Tusk and Putin that installed those flags in the first place.

... I will not answer for Kaczynski's deep mental issues. I'm not a PiS sympathiser.

@GefreiterKania

Ok, now that I had a minute to recover from this attack from a party colleague - I am beginning to question your sincerity. What exactly happened here - let's take a look.

1) Memorial was not demolished.

2) Memorial was not closed.

3) It was not renamed to "A Place Where a Bunch of Assh0les Lie".

All that happened was one of two flags was taken down from the flagpole. Also, the Russian politician responsible said "this is Russian history now". I'm not sure what he means by that, but oh well.

The reason this poor place is in the news, is precisely because it is a place symbolizing Polish-Russian reconciliation. Since Poland is leading the pack of countries trying to kill as many Russians as possible, some busybodies decided this would be the appropriate message to send. No reconciliation, no friendship. It's not what I would want, as a message, but also don't make it out to be something that it is not and get all outraged.

I am beginning to question your sincerity.

I am sorry to hear that but I never said that the memorial was either demolished or closed...

All that happened was one of two flags was taken down from the flagpole.

...and that's exactly what I said and what the article that I linked says. The nonsense ("it's Russian memorial, it's Russian history - there can't be Polish flags here") written on FB by this Borisov muppet is only some extra "spice" added but not the most important thing - we have our own muppets in Poland too, I know the species. They will do everything to please their masters and sometimes they go too far. My guess is that Putin will order the flag to be put back, and Mr Borisov will become a collective farm manager somewhere in Siberia. There can be even an open war between Poland and Russia but some things are just outside the area of fair play.

get all outraged

Outraged? No. More like disgusted and disappointed. If Mr Borisov remains in his office and the flag doesn't return, then I seriously think Poland should bring our boys home. In return we can give Russia all the Russian soldiers' remains together with those huge monuments; all the steel and concrete - must be worth something. And all the transport cost is on us - no problem.

You heard wrong. the last I heard the economy is set to contract by 17% in one year....

@Bobko
If that's the message then it was redundant. Poles do not want friendship with Russia, I dont know that they ever really have. The USSR used Poland for decades and kept it down like the rest of the USSR. Again, Russia has nothing that the world can not live without. Of course there are inconveniences with gas and oil, but nothing that cant be dealt with or over come. The only thing Russia has "right" is that the west wants to see their style of government and imperialism gone.

Once Putin is dead though, and a new leadership established, then maybe the west will talk. But until there is proof of change, Russia can wither away. China cant buy oil forever, and when demand is gone, prices will drop. Simple economics.

Which clashes with their conviction that they're superior... it rankles them no end that all these 'inferior' countries have higher standards of living and less crime and less corruption.... collective narcissistic wound that makes them violently lash out.

Anyone who can runs away from Russian 'culture'.... which drives them to homocidal rage....

Except for that ambassador issue, the rest is not your business.

No reconciliation, no friendship.

What do you mean? Poland and Russia are great friends. I don't know why would you say such a thing to a contrary? We are best buddies if only you could slow down with your Polonophobic attitude.

Okay.....the dimensions are quite different but how would you feel if Germans would raze the Soviet Soldier in Treptower Park for what Putin does just now?

Would you stay all cool and not becoming "outraged"?

whilst we have vast reserves in the USA

Does anyone checked how many oil in reservoirs of strategic reserve, and how much water below layer of oil? Does anyone checked how many gold and how many tungsten inside gold bars in Fort Knox? ;)

Does anyone checked how many

'Anyone'??

Like someone from here with a dipstick and an oily rag or the actual reservoir modelling engineers who do it constantly and on whose findings the figures for reserves are calculated?

Does anyone checked how many gold and how many tungsten inside

Do you think they leave it to chance?
