    The vacillation has gone back and forth since the start of the war.
    Its the French way. They want to lead this thing, but then they dont. He directly contradicts earlier remarks.
    I wonder if the protests at home have shaken him. China will lure commercial benefits, and Macron is extremely business oriented so it may attract him.

    Russia Lost 1.3M Young Workers in 2022 – Research
    ...

    The number of young workers in Russia fell by 1.33 million people between December 2021 and December 2022.

    That is the second-largest decrease in recorded history behind the pandemic year of 2020, when 1.34 million young Russians left the job market.

    Finexpertiza’s research shows a decrease of 87,000 workers aged 20-24 from December 2021-December 2022 to a total of 3.2 million.

    The 25-29 age group saw the biggest decrease at 724,000 fewer people, totaling 7.2 million.

    The 30-34 age group decreased by 524,000 people to 10.7 million.

    Unlike younger workers, Russians of pre-retirement age have flooded the job market after highly controversial pension reforms in 2018 raised the country’s retirement age, RBC said.

    Russians aged 60-69 showed the biggest increase in workforce share from December 2021-December 2022 at 336,000 people. Those aged 50-54 added 202,000 people to the job market.

    Overall, the number of people of all ages employed in the Russian labor market fell by 370,000 to 72.1 million between December 2021 and December 2022.

    I think they have but he has been shaken before.
    The basic idea given below will be popular.
    Show their independence from relying on other countries.
    But they will always be western as long as their democracy stays intact. They like pretending they are not apart of alliances, and then they want to be a part... Its very French.
    They have already gone through what it is like having a autocracy. They dont want that again imo. Some countries like Russia, seem to long for some big king to worship. I think the red team got the king fever with Trump. You cant do anything to a king... he is untouchable.

    I heard on a few podcasts that's what the WH had reported or at least some agency. I'll see if I can find an actual link to the report those podcasters were talking about later after work.

    Vladimir Putin was forced to cancel this year’s Victory Day parade due to “embarrassing tank shortages” amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, RadarOnline.com has learned.

    In a surprising consequence of Putin’s war against Ukraine, the 70-year-old Russian strongman reportedly had no choice but to cancel this year’s annual celebration because nearly all of Russia’s military units are deployed on the frontlines of the ongoing conflict.

    This stupid war is going to go down as an all time dumb ass mistake.
    Putin and Russia has made the entire world poorer. Its great when money goes into ammo instead of food.
