Is this standard for a "special military operations" Vlad?

[–] Rayspekt@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

It's not the "special military operation", it's the "military challenged operation".

[–] VonReposti@feddit.dk 3 points 2 months ago

Not that kind of special.

Hope this works from the client I’m using on mobile. It doesn’t support preview, so fingers crossed.

I heard they had elections already and they voted to join Ukarine.

Lol, this is a parody of the rushed elections in Ukraine.

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

150% voted in favour.

Da comrade. Western society is weak. Can only get 100% of the vote. In glorious mother Russia, we vote extra hard.

Was he not supposed to be reporting on truth? Is Putin showing discomfort of this?

[–] Chee_Koala@lemmy.world 46 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's not how they do that over there. You speak what Putin wants to hear, or you don't speak.

[–] Plopp@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

That turned out really well for them in the beginning of the war, when Putin was told that they'd win over Ukraine in like a week or so.

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 15 points 2 months ago

Yep.

The Governor of the Kursk region better stay well clear of any open windows…

Yeah....he should stay away from windows and tea.

That's a good chunk of land Ukraine just annexed.

[–] lemmytellyousomething@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The people's republic of Kursk?

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago

No, they're a bunch of splitters. It's the Kursk People's Republic.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think they mean that 28 previouslty occupied settlements in Kursk have been de-Nazified and reincorporated into the Kyivan Rus by their rightful owners.

Sucks to suck

Pretty sure that video is from the 8th of August? If so, the information presented here is outdated (not that the Russians were credible in the first place). Or has there been a more recent briefing?

[–] LaFinlandia@sopuli.xyz 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This is from today.

[–] Hubi@feddit.org 7 points 2 months ago

Thanks for the clarification!
