Putin’s Russia in the 21st century: The “second-best army in the world” has run out of fuel, and steam locomotives have been hauled out of the motherland’s reserves. 😂😂😂
Soon, they will likely be unpacking airships and horse-drawn carriages from the 1920s. The return to the USSR—so lauded by “patriots”—is proceeding at breakneck speed.

The word "CHILDREN" was written in large letters in front of the theater in Mariupol to deter the russians from attacking the building. But the russian monsters bombed the theater, killing over 600 civilians, many of them children.
Now these bastards are preparing to reopen the restored drama theater in Mariupol at the turn of the year.
Then they want to dance on hundreds of dead Ukrainians.

Today marks the 3rd anniversary of the mobilization that began on September 21, 2022.
⚡️🇵🇱🇷🇺 Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski at the UN Security Council meeting:
"To the representatives of Russia, I have this to say: we know you don't care for the international law and you're incapable of living in peace with your neighbours. Your insane nationalism contains a lust for domination that will not cease until you realize that the age of empires is over, and that your empire will not be rebuilt. Every drone strike by the heroes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine - may God bless them - brings this day closer. Your 'three-day Special Military Operation' can't even conquer Donbas for ten years now. But the potential for criminal, catastrophic Russian mistakes is still there. By ordering mobilization in 1914, you precipitated the start of World War I, which bleed Europe white, and led to your Bolshevik revolution. By signing the Hitler-Stalin pact, you helped launch World War II - the bloodiest in history. By sovietising central Europe, you caused the Cold War. Don't start another one. We are peaceful democracies, who have studiously avoided actively joining your attempt to re-conquer Ukraine. But we will not be intimidated. I have only one request to the Russian government: if another missile or aircraft enters our space without permission - deliberately or 'by mistake' - and gets shot down, and the wreckage falls on NATO territory, please don't come here to whine about it. You have been warned. Thank you."
