@Alejandrica BRICS has no economic, trade or military agreements. Its not difficult to join an organization with no purpose, obligations or direction.

@markojuric4954 That wasn't a coup, it was mass protests because Yankovich refused to give up power after being voted out by 100% of parliament, including his own party.

@JohnCSmith-lp1qr Inform yourself the difference between a coup and a protest. This would be the only successful 'coup' in human history that ended with the same government it started with.

@yellowtunes2756 And Kyiv remains Ukrainian. funny how you think invading a country and holding sham referendums means anything while referendums in Russia are illegal. Why don't you go ahead and list all the countries that recognize Russia's farcical referendums.

@araara4746 Two completely different situations, whataboutism isn't a good argument. We already have a two state solution between Russia and Ukraine. The states are called Russia and Ukraine.

There isn't an IMF detective squad who investigates economies. Russia self reports their cooked numbers and the IMF takes them at face value.

@yellowtunes2756 You mean the Varangians who were Norse? Are you suggesting Russia be returned to its rightful owners the Swedes?

@PepeCoinMania Still ranks higher than Russia on the corruption index.

@markojuric4954 Invading a country and forcing sham referendums is not democratic.

@chalo7124 So a linguist and some low level diplomats and talking heads. Your pathetic appeal to authority isn't a convincing argument.

@JohnCSmith-lp1qr Childish insults won't change reality. I know what a coup is, that wasn't one.

@JohnCSmith-lp1qr Nuland was having a conversation with another low level diplomat. If you think this is some sort of smoking gun you are beyond help.

@VienPeaaace Except Hawaii and Texas aren't recognized as independent by every country on Earth, including Russia like Ukraine is.

@JohnCSmith-lp1qr There's only one reality bud, find a mental health professional.

@JohnCSmith-lp1qr And yet it was the same 'regime' in charge after the supposed coup. There's a difference between protests and a coup.

@bojanm986 Rostov, the place where people cheered Prigozhin while he was attempting a coup. Putin doesn't care about Russians and the feeling is mutual.

@sandponics In democracies, unlike Russia you don't have leaders for life.

@TSEliot1978 So any time a country is invaded they should accept a peace deal because they care about their people? Welcome to the world of zero IQ reasoning. Putin could just start caring about his people and not invade other countries.
