Nope. Not many people are going to have large families like that when the economy is in the tank, no matter the goodies Putin offers. Young people today are having less children, not more.
I guess I needed green text for problem fixed.

Belarus now claims it's ready to take part in a "peacekeeping mission" in Ukraine, according to a top Belarusian military official, deployment would depend on consent from both sides. https://twitter.com/user/status/1985363986637083024
Combat work of 1st corps of the Azov National Guard in the Dobropillya area in October: Destroyed: 39 tanks 108 units of armored vehicles 429 vehicles 358 artillery systems 165 radar stations 2 anti-aircraft missile systems 14 mortars 12 electronic warfare systems 84 warehouses with ammunition and fuel https://twitter.com/user/status/1985363233004220592
McFaul: If Russia stayed quasi-democratic and integrated with Europe, it could be one of the most important countries now. Instead, Putin overreached in Ukraine. He wrecked Russia's economy and slaughtered young people. https://twitter.com/user/status/1985336002349564303
Data on fallen volunteer soldiers from different countries who gave their lives for Ukraine as of October 27, 2025. (Speaking of which, didnt we have a CP member going over to fight?) https://twitter.com/user/status/1985124434047352837
Another sign of decreasing Russian international influence. Serbia now openly says they will sell ammo to EU countries for use in Ukraine, and that they produce more ammo than France and are willing to sell all of it. https://twitter.com/user/status/1985285070249468160
The numbers are staggering. The conflict is so large that there is news on so many fronts, militarily and geopolitically. Thank you for gathering these up Cheese. It's hard to keep up.
Vucic is a political weasel, so he'll say anything. But it is mildly interesting that probably Russia's closest ally (besides Belorussia) is openly saying things now that would piss off Moscow.

Yes, I think of him often but don’t know him personally. This is their most recent post here (2023):

But again thank you, I appreciate the sentiment.
And also thank you to the rest of you for the kind words and thoughts. It truly is a special community on CP.

The most shocking thing is that the Russians are punishing her. She must have forgotten to bribe the right people. I Googled this story and the reports are kind of vague, but it sounds like she isn't officially charged yet. A judge ordered her to be imprisoned as a preventative measure for the next 3 weeks while the investigation continues. I guess they do things a little differently over there.
I don't have a lot of faith that they are trying to locate and return the trafficked children though. Some of the children she is accused of selling may not even be in Russia anymore.

IT BEGINS: Dissent from within: Ru Gen. Leonid Ivashov drops a bombshell: "A strategic defeat will lead to the collapse of Russia." "Putin's Ukraine fiasco has already isolated Moscow.” https://twitter.com/user/status/1985754781366005784
Think back to the start of Putin’s “3-day SMO.” Now we’re into year four, after billions spent and colossal battlefield losses, and the war has arrived inside Russia. https://twitter.com/user/status/1985991401226506385

Thank you. For your time, your effort. And your commitment to posting the news of this war. I know it must be terribly time consuming, and it must be heart breaking a lot of the time as well. This isn't a feel good story.
I know I'm not alone in here in how much I appreciate all that you contribute, and have for the last few years. It's selfless, and I can't thank you enough.
I appreciate you!

Incredible to see the casualties the Russians have incurred so far. A testament to the ruthless efficiency and stubborn bravery of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
