Аlexei Navalny Found Guilty By Russian Court, Sentenced To 9 Years In "Strict Regimen" Prison
TUESDAY, MAR 22, 2022 - 01:51 PM
Jailed Kremlin critic and anti-Putin activist Alexei Navalny has been found guilty on fresh charges of fraud and contempt of court by a Moscow judge. His plight has recently come back into Western headlines in the wake of Russia's Ukraine invasion.
"Judge Margarita Kotova on Tuesday found Navalny guilty in a makeshift court inside a maximum-security prison in Pokrov 100 kilometers (60 miles) east of Moscow where he is already serving a sentence for violating parole in poisoning recovery," The Moscow Times reports.
Нели во Грузија тестираа вируси на рандом војници?!?
Се надевам дека ќе ја искористат и оваа прилика “пријателите од Запад”, па ќе можат да ги проучат ефектите на ослободување во концентрирана маса!
Пољаците фала нека речат за државата што им ја оставиле(вратиле) русите, затоа што ја изгубија у WW2. Сега бази поставуваат со ракетни штитови....поглупа нација задњи 100 год. тешко од нив, можеби ние.
Аха, демек Русиве окитиле конвој булдожери/камиони со руски знамиња и потоа као еден камион се приближува до наводниот споменик со дигнат кран... Seems legit.
Патем ова е за темата за Украина, макар и само како пример за псај-оп и пропаганда за ширење хистерија.
Russians are co-opting a pro-war hashtag to raise awareness of fast-spreading wildfires in Siberia and highlight the government’s inaction toward the crisis.
"We made all our warnings — both publicly and via bilateral channels. They know about this, so there are no surprises. They were informed about everything, what it will lead to," she added ominously but without spelling out the specifics
Last week, Sky News cited the warnings of deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, as follows:
Russia has said there will be "no more talk of a nuclear–free Baltic" if Sweden and Finland join NATO. Such a development would more than double the length of the military alliance's land borders with Russia, Moscow added.
Meanwhile The Real Fly lays out the possible scenarios and consequences in the below...

This is an escalation. There are two ways to look at this and two ways alone. The leaders of Finland aren’t afraid of provoking military conflict with Russia, whom they believe “have gone crazy.” In other words, they are okay with doing things that will directly cause the deaths of their citizenry.
The flip side is independence from Russia means being able to make decisions for Finland without fear of reprisal. If they folded on the non existent NATO matter, why Russia might ask for Finnish ports to protect them against a German invasion of Leningrad.
No matter what side you fall on, this is worse for the specter of peace and only hastens the war path NATO is on with Russia.
"There can be no more talk of any nuclear-free status for the Baltic - the balance must be restored," says the deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev.

The US is seeking domination over the Mediterranean Sea as tensions with Moscow mount. NATO and Russia have built-up their forces in the region to the most significant level in a generation.
Thibault Lavernhe, regional communication officer of the French army in the Mediterranean, said, "Ukraine has changed things. The Americans are back. This hasn’t been the case since the Cold War."

He added, "Russia has doubled, if not tripled, its military capacity in the area."
The French military official estimates Russia has 20 ships in the Mediterranean. Lavernhe says the US has moved warships from the Atlantic Ocean to double its presence in the sea.
Before Russia invaded Ukraine, NATO was operating with three aircraft carrier strike groups in the region. Three weeks ago, the US extended the deployment of the USS Truman aircraft carrier in the eastern Mediterranean.
Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro said last month that Truman’s current role could allow it to be used as a weapon for another nation.
"The role of Truman, with other allies, is to deter Russians from further aggression and to be on constant standby for orders that might be given from our president or from other leaders around the world for the protection of Ukraine and the people of Ukraine."
In addition to the massive naval presence, NATO has stepped up its intelligence gathering. The French Atlantique 2 spy planes are deployed to Crete to surveil the sea.
A NATO military officer speaking with AFP said the purpose of the deployment is "to show the Russians that the eastern Mediterranean is a NATO area."
