Why is Russia going the North Korean and Iranian way. They are friends to each other anyway. I follow a Russian photographer in tiktok. I hope he is safe Sha.

Kazakhstan Closes Trucking Loophole Which Allowed Russia To Dodge Sanctions

Astana has closed a loophole that was allowing Russian and Belarusian truckers to bring European Union cargo across Russia to Kazakhstan without the correct paperwork. The clampdown comes as Kazakhstan continues efforts to comply with international sanctions against Russia and Belarus fellow partners in the Eurasian Economic Union (a free trade zone) to avoid Western countries targeting Kazakhstan with secondary sanctions.

Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree to increase punishment for crimes against military service during the period of mobilization and in conditions of armed conflict, as well as introducing criminal penalties for voluntary surrender and looting.

The law was urgently adopted in the State Duma on September 20,
On the eve of the announcement of the mobilization in Russia
.

Amendments were made to the amendments that make the punishment for unauthorized desertion from a unit, disobeying an order and desertion during the recruitment period more severe.

For refusing to participate in hostilities, the law stipulates up to three years in prison, and if such refusal involves "serious consequences" - up to 10 years in prison

Ther is something I noticed... Really funny but it's Avery terrible reality of the Media

When Ukrainian war started... Ukrainian Army stopped men (conscripts and azov Nazis included) from leaving the country, forced most of them to volunteer even when they didn't want to fight. We all read about it. But the Narrative was different. BBC called then 'heroes and saviours' now most of them are dead because they were rag tag and unprepared and most death went unreported, because MMS always want to keep a clean propaganda narrative

FAST forward to yesterday... Russia is recruiting its citizens also. Boom! MMS moved to say all kinds of bvllshvt, Calling them weak, rag tag, oppression regime, etc. But that's the same thing Zelensky and Nato did in Ukraine in February, forcing people to fight a war they didn't cause. They went on, Spreading lies about mass border movement to Hungary! And other things

The thing is... MMS is working for the West, Twitter, fb, Instagram, ect. If ur neutral is this event, avoid MMS and their social Media uploads... It's all bunch of lies and face-down stories.

Really funny is just how stupid you are. No one was forced to fight. As matter of fact, Ukraine had too many volunteers so they had to turn many away.

And no, 'MMS' doesn't care about propaganda. They are not controlled by the state like in russia. They care about selling ads and making money.

You are the dummest person I'll ever quote on nl but let me do so, cos you need sense

I followed this war from day 1, videos were on Twitter about them not letting men out of Ukraine, were u sleeping xwhen that was told?
Many of them didn't want to join, had no or little war experience but were forced to.

Many of them died because they were told Russia was weak and they could win.. But that's not reality. Those fighting Ukraine war today are mercenaries and more mercenaries... A little section of poorly trained but well armed volunteers in the UA.

It's a general knowledge that any kid xeven in America can tell you that MMS is the highest publisher of fake and propaganda more than any other regions of the world. You can't try fake news in China, the punishment is huge, not in India, Russia or any other part of the world... But u see America, you can post any shvt u like and no one gives a slack, people buy it.

Don't quote me back if u want to say nonsense again.

You have a point but Ukraine and Russia are very different in size, strength, weapons and preparedness. All key deciding factors of conflict. Russia's use of reservists and conscripts is sad given their strength in weapons, finance, experience and preparedness. The only excuse they have is sanctions against them but they are also denying the effect in a bid to win the informational and psychological warfare.

Mad Putin is looking to preserve his own reputation. I keep saying it, that man is near his grave and has no soul. He will gladly watch the world slide into chaos for his pride.
Once they conduct their sham referendum and withdraw from other contested territories, Ukraine will be forced to launch assault on territories Russia suddenly claim is part of them and Putin can have all the constitutional power to use nukes and chemicals.
Like in Hitlers case, the shortest road to the whole conflict ending will suddenly become the elimination of Putin.
