I wouldn't be supprised if Ukrainian economy will start to do better after Russian annexion
Russian annexation is not going to happen if Putin is as bright as I think he is. It will only happen if he has a lunatic side to him and if it happens Russians will suffer at least as much as Ukrainians.
Probably not, but US officials are openly trying to goad him into it... The president trying to intimidate Ukraine with threats of Russian invasion is probably meant to discourage them from investigating past dealings by him and his dope-fiend crooked son...
Also, he's looking for a foreign policy 'win' before next year's mid-terms... if Russia doesn't invade he'll claim credit (and many will believe it or pretend to believe it):.
Because Poles have always considered themselves free people even when they were not. While Russians have always felt like slaves under their rulers: first Tartars, then tsars, bolsheviks and putinists.
@Joker Maybe because you're an anal wart yourself, I have never personally met any "arsehole" Russians. All the Russians I have met were friendly and good natured.
I won't forget my Russian friend I had a student radio with, I had some politically incorrect opinions that I voiced and one of the leaders in the radio had a personal grudge towards me from taking attention of the girls from him and his friend at a party caused by a comment that was meant to hurt me. Which only made the women interested in my by how I responded.
That Russian friend stood up for me, even if the leader was fully in his right to demand me getting kicked out of the radio from his team. So I have very positive view of Russians in my personal life, it's the sad state of Russian Federation that darkens most of my negative views of Russia/Russians.
Being fully aware what again can happen to my family if Russia is in charge in any way possible
The fastest watch in the world! Like Soviet Russians did!!!!!! hahaha buhahahaha ............ ja prdle Ale witz. Tyle razy już to powtarzam ale zawsze mnie śmieszy jak cholera. :):):):)
Sorry to burst your Russian bubble, Bobko my dear, but Mickiewicz was a POLE in body, spirit, and soul, who merely happened to have been born in then Lithuania when it belonged to Poland!! Although in the opening lines of his epic, he claims "Litwa" as his fatherland (literally speaking in Polish), he wrote, he expressed himself in Polish and not either in Lithuanian or Russian, the origin of both his parents notwithstanding.
Chopin or Szopen, for example, was born in Poland to a Polish mother and a French father, yet thought of himself as a "Pole in exile" and his mother tongue, the language of music, is Polish z krwi i kosci.
Yes, my idol in Polish literature. When young in 1980s, I learnt his poems by heart to woo female students at the university. And it worked excellently! Thank you, Adam. ):):)
