Putin certainly seems a chip off the old block

How culpable were Thatcher & Reagan for refusing Gorbachev the
financial aid he begged for in order to help Russia recover from decades of Politburo mismanagement?
They said no - the market will sort it

(Slow handclap for neoliberalism)

Zelenskyy: “Putin may see himself as a Tsar, but in reality, he is a slave to war.

“And if he lives another 10 years? We understand that it is possible.

“He could regroup, rebuild, and expand again.”
