I see a lot of people celebrating prematurely with Russia's announcement of withdrawal. First we need to see the satellite images to see what was exactly withdrawn. Also no equipment that took weeks to arrive is being removed. This situation still needs to be monitored closely
Saw many irresponsible headlines w/o mentioning units being removed that Shoigu mentioned. I wish more than anything Kremlin's announcement was true but knowing how they operate I can't imagine spending over a mth to move equip and suddenly saying they are done. Not how they work
These were the units he mentioned only
I have been monitoring the movements along with propaganda in Russian media since early March and this does not seem like something the Kremlin would do suddenly. The situation needs to be monitored closely and will become a little more clear soon

Medvedev announced to a Russian media outlet that the Cold War has returned between US-Russia. I'm sure it has nothing to do with Putin having a policy of destroying democracy and attacking Western countries (US) with his thuggish intelligence agents and endless operations
I would argue that the Cold war really never ended and the corrupt criminal hardliners who hijacked Russian policy and institutions never attempted to have a normal relationship with US and Europe

Czech Republic announces that they will reduce the number of diplomats in the Russian embassy in Prague to match their numbers in Moscow
Now Russia responds by saying they want to reduce the 5 diplomats and 19 technical employees at the Czech embassy in Moscow. At this rate both will get to 0 soon

Looks like Slovakia ordered 3 Russian diplomats to leave in 7 days as a sign of solidarity with Czech. Allies!

The Russian GRU assassins who are also behind the 2014 ammunition depot explosions in Czech Republic which led to this weekends expulsions of 18 Russian diplomats. Terrorist state
"Czech government said Monday it would eliminate Russia's Rosatom from a multi-billion-euro tender to build a new unit at a local nuclear plant because of the diplomatic row with Moscow." These actions hurt Putin's cronies and have a direct financial impact. We need more of this.
Why Merkel hasn't stopped Nord stream 2 is beyond me. That's the language Putin and his cronies understand. They need to get shut out of all dealings in the West and have their assets seized as well as their families. Cutting off the money flow is the main way

Russian media reporting that US is canceling their 2 ships that were supposed to arrive in the Black Sea today. I really hope this isn't true
Will keep an eye on this and update. Looks like the ships are in Greece now and there is mixed reporting surrounding this
Two more outlets are reporting this now

I have been documenting this bizarre tactic where Russian trolls comment in British papers, then a main Russian outlet writes a story about these comments as if genuine. For the past wk it was 1 a day but since yesterday it is increasing & now involves Bulgaria and France as well
The comments are so troll like and range from Sleepy Joe to Trump keeping the world safe.
