Putin Opens Up On Attack on Saudis, Dollar Demise And Danish "Sovereignty" Over Nord Stream 2
Wouldn't it be amazing to have a straight-talking leader who actually knows what they hell he's talking about for a change? We haven't had such a thing in a long, long while. I'm not bad-mouthing Trump. He's no worse than the other idiots who have served as president during the past several decades. But the important thing here is mostly the last minute of this news clip. Putin points out that the monetary policies of the USA are about to bite it in the ass. The dollar may soon cease to be the go to currency for international economic exchange. When that happens the USA will lose a great deal of it's economic power and influence. Without that tool, military interventions may increase and this could be dangerous for everybody.

Putin to West: your dish has been served
Putin seems to have a more clear understanding of world politics than any other leader on the planet. Of course, I can't say I've heard every leader answer questions like the ones asked in this video, but Putin provides some very clear and insightful answers.

‘We know who did it’: Israeli FM thanks Putin for Red Army’s liberation of Auschwitz
Don't ever forget it. Russia liberated Auschwitz. Russia took Berlin. The USA helped, but Russia scored the key victories which ended the war. The irony is that after the war the USA and Russia went their separate ways and an adversarial relationship developed.

Russian Woman To Putin: My Husband Told Me To Come Home And Improve Demographics in Russia!
It's possible to be frank, open, and honest in Russia. Here anyone who has something to say which opposes SJW orthodoxy could find themselves ridiculed or possibly out of work. At one time the USA was the land of the free. Now Russia is much more free.

IMPROVE THE DEMOGRAPHICS - So, that's what they're calling it now! :laugh:
It's a good point though. When a country encourages dumb people to produce dumb babies as a result of social welfare systems and discourages smart people from having smart babies as a result of over-taxation, the result is an overall drop in the national IQ. That's a dangerous game to be playing!

How climate change could benefit Russia
Land areas closer to the poles may actually become more productive as a result of climate change. That's not surprising, but Russia would gain more than any other country if global warming is sufficient.
