You know... rusanons I think I kinda get it. Who is the west to tell you that you can't be a great power after sacrificing 25 million of your own 80 years ago?It's like you've never been taken seriously after all this time and it makes me a little sad. Maybe in another life we could have been friends or something.
>>535069104Russia is a great power regardless of what the so called democratic countries say.
>>535069104I mean they kinda were a big power during the soviet era and even today they are making the west collectively seethe
>>535069104Thanks for your input John Hamburger from Texas Oblast
>>535069380North Carolina oblast I guessMaybe I should visit russia just to make people seethe
>>535069242before the SMO, multiple intelligence agencies had already labelled RF as a "regional" powerand even before that, all the ruskies did was fight reclamation wars against former Soviet peripheral satellite statesthat said, their "steppe ethnic minority male depopulation" has "worked" for ethnic Russians i guessidk if it was worth risking siberian pipeline permafreeze 30 year+ shutdowns or getting their germ-ruskie energy pipeline blown to shit, but...hey, at least they made the news for a few years?
>>535069448Enjoy gay rape
>>535069531>before the SMO multiple countries Britain and France and Germany are jokes Russia is the only one capable of long term Arctic campaigns and space exploration “Regional power” Meanwhile they control deep Africa and parts of the Middle East
>>535069603>enjoy gay rape He was tortured to death and then staged to look killed by artillery All four servicemen of oglorp were sentenced to 10 years hard labor
>>535069448Tourism is very cheap in Russia for westerners. No real reason not to visit european Russia.Good luck to you if you decide to visit caucasus or siberia tho
>>535069242is it tho?>A great power is a sovereign state that is recognized as having the ability and expertise to exert its influence on a global scale. Great powers characteristically possess military and economic strength, as well as diplomatic and soft power influence
>>535069686None of them did a single day at a precinct let alone in hard labor camp though. Russians have released thousands of pedophiles and murderers from prisons across their vast wastelands in exchange for military service.
>>535069642>Russia is the only one capable of long term Arctic campaigns and space explorationit's not doing any of that so is it really tho?
>>535069691no reason to visit it and see knock off europe in ds1 ds2 or asia but not as good as astana, not as historic as bukhara in regional cities
>>535069603>even Ivan cant deal with Boomer retireeshaha>>535069642>Arctichuge memeuntil it's ice-free all year 'round, those trade routes are not usableya see, they have these things called "maps" and when ice gets in the way they become useless to cargo ships every yearcanucks+mutts will have more icebreakers than them anyway>space explorationare they even still in the game? last moon rocket blew up, can they even still launch things?>Africaonly ever war crimey Wagner mercs patrolling gold mines, manpower already went to Ukraine anyway>Middle Eastcarry-over Soviet warm water ports autism, inherited enormous logistics nightmare, Syria is gone anywayhey dude...if they werent a regional power, theyd have been able to hold onto all those thingsbut it's basically Moscow region versus the world now, so...anyways...
>>535070001Petersburg is not a "knockoff" europe, it is an european city, it was planned and was built as such
>>535069234Hitler retired in south America and other nazis were hired by commies and americans. Just a handful were sacrificed at nuremberg, while soviets were busy forging the holohoax 6 bazillions
>>535069865>convicts butchering ukro-kikes I see no problem with this >>535069881….They have a large military base not outpost a gigantic base in the Arctic
>>535070386it is a russian city built to imitate europe, there's plenty of petersburgs in china now
>>535070006>are they even still in the game?The Soyuz-5 launched last week….Does that bother you NAFO troon?
>>535069104You realize that between 80 years ago when russia was taken very seriously and nowaday, where it was almost starting to get taken seriously before getting bog down in ukraine, there was the fall of soviet union where russia became irrelevant for at least a decade? It's probably around that time most of us were born and Russia was trying to get out of the gutter. It's really why you don't take them seriously, not because the west wants to hurt their fee-fees
>>535070745Your president had a live crash out over oreshnik vaporizing whatever French intelligence officers were in Lvov
>>535070597>Site 31 rebuiltoh thats good newsonly took em half a year to get back on being behind schedulebut hey, maybe nothing will ever blow up again?
>>535070597it can't even project power on its own border, armenia, syria and mali are example of how it fails to project power internationally. The only person that seems to be bothered here is you.
>>535069104shut the fuck up vatnigger, no one believes russia was ever a great power after this shameful display. Just a bandit state that has no talent or worthwhile population.
>>535070838what the fuck are you even talking about
>>535070959I mean again Soyuz-5 launched last week You can cope about le ukrainian drone strikes Kiev got rocked today so it’s understandable why you’re so booty tickled>>535070998>armenia Own corrupt president didn’t send its military to reinforce Arstahk and Nagorno-Karbahk and expected Russians to just die for them >syria SAA didn’t fight back, Russian air campaign liquidated 5,000+ al Nusra roaches before getting off Scott free and keeping their bases >mali The major jihadist offensive failed, losing 1/5th of your forces to only take one metropolitan area in the north while failing to take the Capitol is a failure >frog talks about power Your future is tied to Africa froggy
>>535071073The oreshnik that made macron cry and literally pop a eye vein
>>535071183>The inaugural launch of the modern Soyuz-5 (rocket) was originally planned for late 2023oof
>>535071183>Soyuz-5 launched last weekwhat does it do? does it go somewhere? does it collect data? what's the deal with it?
>>535069104>Who is the west to tell you that you can't be a great powerThey kinda proved it themselves that they arn't a great power anymore lol.
>>535071295You rebuilt the Baltimore bridge yet mutt?>>535071362It’s the most advanced rocket for space expeditions so ya I’d assume it’s an achievement
>>535071445>Mutt calling other mutts for muttsForgot your VPN Ivan?
>>535071445yeah but what the fuck does it do?
>>535071540Carries people and cargo to go do space stuff
>>535071445Baltimore is an irrelevant shithole, has been for decades, its not economically worth it for the thing to be rebuiltbut please, continue to compare a rusty port with moon exploration
>>535071605what did it carry? where to?
>>535069234We here on 4chan /pol/ famously hate nazis
>>535069448Don't let the door hit you on the way out
>>535069642>Russian space explorationFucking lol m8
>>535071511They aren't sending their best
> Own corrupt president didn’t send its military to reinforce Arstahk and Nagorno-Karbahk and expected Russians to just die for them Armenia is part of the CSTO, regardless of anything less, it's a huge loss of face. Part of the agreement Russia broke down between azerbaijan and armenia (instead of supporting their ally the first time) was not letting troops go through the only road left to Nagorno-Karbahk, which led to the quick fall of Nagorno-Karbahk when azerbaijan moved your point is literally the opposite of reality> SAA didn’t fight back, Russian air campaign liquidated 5,000+ al Nusra roaches before getting off Scott free and keeping their bases Russia was forced to abandon its bases? What are you talking about? I'm not sure how bombing people changes anything. The important part is that Russia was forced to be a spectator, like in all of these failures.> The major jihadist offensive failed, losing 1/5th of your forces to only take one metropolitan area in the north while failing to take the Capitol is a failure Russian forces being forced to broker a deal to be able to retreat is sure an absolute show of force. Losing the north to jihaadist and going back to the situation before France intervened in the conflict is an absolute win for ROSSIYA. >>535071206ah yes that must be the explanation, macron was so sad a handful of glowies got exploded that he popped a vein
>>535071651>we didnt need a bridge to connect the roadway entire east coast from north to south anyway.Who needs a big giant port anywayIts like faggots will just say anything with zero shame
>>535071864>Baltimore ports/geography>efficientlogistics is more complicated than just infrastructuremaybe their convoy wouldnt have stalled out if more ruskies understood this lmao
>>535069104>after sacrificing 25 million of your own 80 years agothat happened only after they tried allying themselves with Hitler
>>535069104but here's the real deal: Russia is the GOAT when it comes to defending their borders from outside attackers. But they are among the worst when attacking outher sovereign nations.Putin just doesn't care.
>>53506910425 million russians should die again
russia and usa are still cooperating in spaceif they stop doing it due to politics, then it's time to panic
>>535071857>ignores that Armenia’s own president said Nagorno-Karbahk was Azeri clay and wasn’t sending troops to defend it So you just lied on that point…>Losing the north was a show of force against Russia Kidal isn’t “the north”It’s one municipal >Forced to abandon their bases I mean some of them, it’s ok though Assad got the last laugh at retarded Sunni niggers>Macron cried Ya he did, oreshnik scares the little Blackrock Jew
>>535072132successful defensive operations within your borders is not the same as defending your bordersthe whole point of Russian aggression has only ever been to create more defensible borderspersonally, i think they should have just pimped out europe with energy until everybody's demographics were too fucked to pull off any invasion, of Moscow or anywherebut europoors are the most autistic line-drawers in the world, so i guess not
