Russia needs people.

we couldn’t feed 30 million Ukrainians anyway.

The new territories can yield at least an additional 5 million tons of grain per year.

😂

Russia’s strength is recognized worldwide. Held the line against 50 countries. Nazism and globalization bowed before our might.

Our army turned out to be the most combat-capable in the world, facing down the full might of the West.

🤣

Putin and Trump are the good guys; Biden has blood dripping from his teeth.

Those grapes were probably sour, anyway.

Probably similar to the US with Iran. Sadly will probably work just as well

You can see how hard the Russian marketing guys are working trying to spin Putin’s historic miscalculation into something resembling victory. Pathetic.

No “We took Kyiv.” That was never the objective.

That seems awkward.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kyiv_(2022)

The Battle of Kyiv was part of the Kyiv offensive in the Russian invasion of Ukraine for control of Kyiv, the capital city of Ukraine, and surrounding districts including Hostomel Airport. The combatants were elements of the Russian Armed Forces and Ukrainian Armed Forces. The battle lasted from 24 February 2022 to 2 April 2022 and ended with the withdrawal of Russian forces.

So what’s Russia’s narrative here?

ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Битва_за_Киев_(2022)

Google Translate:

The Battle of Kyiv was a military operation waged by Russia in the Kyiv direction with the aim of capturing the capital of Ukraine , Kyiv , which lasted from February 25 to April 2, 2022, during the invasion of Russian troops into Ukraine from the territory of Belarus.

That doesn’t seem to deny it.

Are they blocking Wikipedia?

It doesn’t sound like it.

The free online encyclopedia Wikipedia was briefly blocked in Russia in August 2015. Some articles from Wikipedia were included in various censorship lists disseminated by the government. Further threats to block were made following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Oh. They banned that specific page on Russian Wikipedia and are trying to get Wikipedia to remove it by imposing fines.

en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_Wikipedia_pages_banned…

Within the Russian Federation, a number of Wikipedia articles have been banned. Some of the banned articles have resulted in fines levied against the Wikimedia Foundation.[1] As of July 2023, there have been a total of 7 fines totaling 8.4 million rubles.[2] The Wikimedia Foundation has appealed these fines in court,[3] and has lost.[4] Due to the enabling of HTTPS encryption on all Wikimedia sites,[5] individual Wikipedia articles cannot be blocked by governments without blocking the entire Wikipedia site for that language (for example, see the block of Wikipedia in Turkey).

The Federal List of Extremist Materials is compiled by the Russian Ministry of Justice on the basis of court decisions. It includes various materials recognized by the court as extremist. The list is available on the website of the Ministry of Justice.

Banned item 13 and 14, “ru:Битва за Киев (2022)”, “Battle of Kyiv (2022)”.

I guess they’re planning on the Tiananmen Square route. “Nothing ever happened on that day.”

The Great Leader can’t be responsible for fuckups if those fuckups never happened, I guess.
