He does not know history. Thousands of volunteers moved to USSR before WWII to help to build communism. Some of them managed to get back, many of them were ground by the paranoid regime. Photo: Czechoslovak volunteers arriving to USSR in 1926

Friendly meeting of all candidates in Russian elections:

We have elections in Slovakia next year. The campaign will cost a lot of money. A LOT. Billboard of Fico's party in Euro elections few years ago: "For peace in Europe" Looks like fully financed by Russian donors

Fico is weak. I do not even know why we have army at all. With such leadership he would be first waving the soviet flag welcoming Russian liberators The banner says: "A pioneer defends peace“. A lot of old Slovaks still have those time in their heads

Will Russia start another war in Europe? High and growing oil prices were factor in 2022 and might be a factor now. Maybe somebody should message to China - if Russia escalates, oil deliveries to China might be in danger.

Diesel more-less copies the price of oil. And the price of oil clearly reacts to the war in Iran

BRICS strongly anti-imperialistic in their declarations but their leading members doing the opposite. Russia - last imperium in Europe, leading expansionist war just now And China reviving its imperial past bullying their neighbors. Qing dynasty (1644–1912) AKA Chinese empire on the map from 1840

So the price of diesel is in no relation to the price of oil? Why are we now in $100+ territory???

Leningrad, Stalingrad, Kaliningrad - first two were renamed back, the third should be too. Actually we do not need Russian approval to refer to it as Königsberg Mikhail Ivanovich Kalinin:

German journalist - this is interesting ... in 1942 allies started strategic bombardment of Nazi Germany, and yes, civilians were dying too... I am against killing civilians and anybody else. But we must distinguish who is aggressor and who a victim

While Germans coped very well with their Nazi history, Russians did the opposite with Stalinism, WWII events etc. They simply do not know own history. Or rather they know fairy tales and many of them believes them.

Molotov's speech in October 1939. Soviet propaganda seriously claimed that it was anglo-franks who were warmongers and Hitler who wanted the peace. Russian playbook is the same as soviet playbook

Sergey Lavrov during UN General Assembly, New York, September 27, 2025: "We never attack civilian targets. Incidents may happen, but we never target them deliberately."

Did you know that it were Anglo-French aggressors who instigated the WWII fighting Nazis and who had no desire to stop it? October 1939, Defense Commissar Voroshilov

Another pearl of Soviet foreign policy - Molotov's speech of October 1939, note "Germany's aspiration for peace"

Interesting insight how did Soviets perceive WWII before the Barbarossa started. I am posting a screenshot from YouTube video, I failed to find full text of this order No. 191 from May 1st, 1941 online.

I am not sure this is fully correct. Occupation of Besarabia (cur. Moldova) got USSR too close to Ploiești oilfields (within a reach of bombers) and this made Hitler very nervous. This was not in line with 'spirit of Molotov-Ribentrop pact' ;)

Example of Russian cartoon. What fascinates me are the proportions of the bear and Ukraine (Zelensky). No sanity check. Target audience is obvious...

Russian census of 1897 provides some interesting insights. See nationality composition based on declared first language: Russian 52.4% Jewish 14.8% Polish 8.6% Ukrainian 7.4% Polish 8.6% Belarusian 1.0% How does this map based on the census compare to current (pre-2014) Ukraine territory?

Unknown history: Lokot autonomy/republic in occupied Russia (Oct 41-Aug 43): '... ruled by Russian civil administration ... to serve as a test case for a Russian collaborating government under the SS' With own forces up to 10.000 men '... completely massacred the Jewish population of the area.'

Ask Tucker Carlson, he was forced to listen to Putin's historical lesson. Look how happy he looked then

This is normal in Russia. Look at those guys, in what war(s) they have got all those medals?

Who will punish Russian war criminals? Russia is historically known to close their eyes on own war crimes. Quite famous quote from Stalin: "Can't you understand if a soldier who has crossed thousands of kilometres through blood and fire and death has fun with a woman or takes some trifle?

"they will no longer be able to recover from the damage inflicted." Do not underestimate Europeans. See how some of Germany's cities looked during WWII: (This is Dresden)

For me as an European it seems very strange that there is no 'normal' ID card in USA and quite a few other countries. This is how this small plastic card looks in Slovakia (official specimen):

Just few weeks ago owning oil producers stocks seemed pointless and losing business. And suddenly... the worse the better - can be said in this case ;) source ishares.com - chart of iShares Oil & Gas Exploration & Production UCITS ETF
