You are not entirely right about the Russian oil. Oil was discovered in Azerbaijan long time ago, before US deposits were found.
It was not hard to find since there were lakes on the surface of it.
Swedish venture capitalists built up Baku and invested a lot of money there.
All was lost when the Bolsheviks took over.
They being primarily uneducated people, did not have the knowledge to process the crude stuff.
They did so of course later, to master the skills and used them to fuel the mighty red army in WW2.

Oil will never run out! Earth is full of it and mostly it's not from decayed plants and algae.
Some Japanese scientist speculates though that global warming have to do with the actual tapping and not the burning of fossil fuels. I don't know about that?
Anyway if the myth about oil depletion would definitely be proved wrong. No more wars fought about energy. Just drill deep enough and you will find it even in Manhattan or Washington. It's the thickness of the continental shelf that makes it hard in some places and easier in others.

Ukrainian secret police SBU kills one of their own former deputy chief in a targeted attack. One of Ukraine's mediators to the peace talks with Russia was executed in his car claimed to be a Russian spy. No court was deemed necessary in this operation.

That is not accurate.
His grandfather was maybe 100% Jewish. His father then 50% Jewish and him self 25% Jewish.
But according to Jewish laws you have to have a Jewish mother to be considered a Jew. He has Russian as native tongue and have learned to speak Ukrainian it a very theatrical way.
In speeches predominantly uses words that is not the same in both languages and in a not natural husky tone.
You fail to see the reason he is president! He starred in a television series produced by 1+1 the TV channeled owned by Alexander Yefymovych Rodnyansky a Jewish oligarch operating from a head office in Delaware, USA.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%2B1_(TV_channel)

Alexander also funded the election campaign for Zelenesky presidentship.
Zelensky is bought and paid for by Israeli big business, to take control of Ukraine's economy and bleed it dry.
It's not hard to fool stupid young men with Nazi nationalistc ideals to fight for "democracy" kleptocrazy style!
Don't think they care about history when it comes to making money!

The verbal conflict is escalating and Scandinavian governments and media has clearly chosen side as has all other EU countries.
In Czechia it’s now illegal to voice opinion against Ukraine and western countries.
Swedish media says nothing about it but concentrate on Russian media lock down.
Swedish anti tank missiles has now arrived in Ukraine and can be used to kill people.
It’s just a matter of time before a western gun carrying plane will be shot down and further escalate the situation.
What is strange is that Western countries now fight with Nazis and not against them.
Here is a link to a British journalist reporting.

Also some explaining about propaganda done before the conflict.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeWbIj2PHnE

Take some of your precious time to watch it before Youtube will censor it. For you Russian speaking, bare with him his poor Russian with heavy accent.
There are some other stories that Graham Phillips has done that can be watched, not only about this conflict. They seems like from an neutral observer but some biasness can be observed, but it’s mild compared to western news agencies.
Russias biggest enemy is actually their language. Even though many Russians and for that matter Ukrainians speak English, western people don’t. This language barrier cannot be broken and western readers/viewers are only seeing one side of things while many Russians see both.
Translators don’t always translate correctly and the recipient having no knowledge, get misinformed. Russian speaking translators in western countries may have moved from Russia because of many things. As a world leader I would not trust a person translating. Better use google.
I have military training as a low ranking officer. It doesn’t make me an expert of course. But when you want to defend a position you don’t stand in the open wielding a sword against the enemy any longer. Rarely you have a bunker to defend so you choose a building or a moat to post.
When enemy approach and you choose to engage with weapons. The enemy can respond with fire or retreat. If you fire upon them expect that the building/position you are in will be damaged or destroid .
In many cases when you retreat you have to destroy the building yourself or the enemy can use it against you. This is called the burnt soil tactic. Leave nothing useful behind that the enemy can use. The enemy on the other hand will want as much as possible to remain so it can be used.
Clearly in this conflict the Ukrainian government blames the Russians for everything and that include objects them they self, destroy. Western media are gullible and believe everything without any facts. Soon the Russians will be blamed of making lamp shades out of the skin from Ukrainians.
History repeats itself and lies are flying everywhere!
Lastly, an advice. Since Visa, Mastercard and Paypal has frozen and stopped to work in Russia you can expect that the same will happen in Ukraine and consequently any other country that will in the future be involved on “enemy” side.
Including occupied countries. Thus meaning that cards will not work. If possible change to a domestic card. In the long run cards, cash and accounts will lose value or stop working.
There will always be greedy people who will trade gold and silver for goods they have. So it’s always safer as long as you hide it. And it will be a full scale war, it’s already too late to stop it.
The great reset has begun. Power is more important than ecology, covid and human lives.
When your country comes and asks you to do “your part” refuse and go to jail instead. That’s what I am going to do.
In Sweden even children by law has to fight. 16-17 year old. Unbelievable but true!
I rather starve to death in a concentration camp then kill people.

Why do you take for granted it's Putin who have to be caught? It might as well be Biden! A WW3 doesn't have a predicted winner, only losers. US citizens are naive, remember 9/11 and what a few crazy Saudis did. Russia have the power to destroy USA many times over. Don't give them a reason to do so by supporting the war mongrels in White house!

I looked at it. It's 95% correct and not biased. I recommend all to watch it.
It's not Russian or US propaganda. It was never any conflicts between regular people.
It's all about politics, religion and money.
During Soviet time there were no religion and people intermarried.
Just yesterday I had a Latvian customer who had a Belarusian father and Latvian mother. I know people who have Ukrainan/Russian parents.
Western big business is after the Ukrainian economy and want western banks to establish them self. Take control of factory's through stocks.
They will not stop until even China is concurred.
Remember I am Swedish, born and raised in a neutral country.
I am rebellious against socialist systems.
I have lived in both USA and Russia.
Giving me possibility to compare in a way most Russians and Americans can't.

As I said, it's a a problem that immigrants glory fie the result of the emigration.
It doesn't help with US TV shows showing NBA professionals houses and home decorations and flip flop shows that they sell to other countries media.
Go to Youtube and watch non US documentaries for some balance.

I like Americans, I have no problem with them. They are friendly in general. I don't like US politicians. They are puppets to big business!

Sorry to say, but maybe USA, Canada and Mexico should become one country and first order of business would be to legalize drugs. That would create a political balance and reduce drug gangs power in North America.
Sound crazy, I know but you should try it and leave the rest of the world alone.

Reuters are spreading false news about Scandinavia vs Russia that Swedish media have to correct since it's not true, yet. Might be true soon if Biden doesn't shut up. No actions from Reuters to correct. Looks like they are not neutral! Why is not Trump screaming fake news now? Is he joining forces with Biden and sacrificing Europe? Biden should concentrate on making USA great again, it's been awhile since it was.

It's a one way flow, most Latin Americans that come here head for Spain because of obvious reasons.
Other countries don't get any big amount. Same with USA, you already have a lot of Spanish speakers.
That is the main reason they come to US and the fact you can walk or drive.
Trust me that if you handed out free air line tickets in Central America many would go to other places instead.
See what happened in El Salvador. People came to the US, had a hard time, ended up in gangs, got deported and those gangs continued operations in the home country and now even more people are leaving El Salvador thanks to the nice education you gave them.
Nice job!
Keep living in your bird cage. The world outside is a "horrible" place!
But maybe Biden and his gang can make it better here, not?

It's not like it's easy for Mexicans and other Latin Americans to easily can go to Europe. Trust me they would if they could afford it.
Also the myth of prosperity is strong.
It's hard for emigrants to confess their failure toiling in the fields for peanuts always looking over their shoulders for immigration officers.
Most Americans have never ventured out of their country and needs a reality check of the state of countries abroad.
As a comparison Moscow have bigger mansions then Los Angeles.
When you fly over, the amount castles are ridiculous! The cost of an apartment is much higher then any American city.
Yet, there are hardly any homeless.
Yes, you do see beggars but they are very old women or legless war veterans but not many.
Go to any major African city and you will be surprised.
It is not the way company's who wants your aid portray it.
Your government and media is not showing the truth. Why would they.
It's common practice in all country's.
They feed propaganda about their own greatness and how bad it is elsewhere.
To travel is to know, unfortunately it's expensive.

They are desperate people both in USA and Mexico. The situation in both those countries are not good.
As a young adult I admired USA because I was fed a lot of crap through television from Hollywood.
After living 4 Years in Miami 1987-1992 I got to see a lot of the dark side of USA and Latin American immigrants.
I understand that Miami was flooded with Cubans through the Mariel boat lift but that was not the only problem. I can go on and on with examples.
Of course I met many nice people to but they were the fortunate ones.
My biggest surprise was the intense racism from black people against foreign black people, like Haitians and Africans who generally worked pretty hard.
My self I got along well with black Americans since I had an accent they didn't consider me a cracker. And others as well.
To arm a lot of people is not a good idea. Trust me! We never had guns in Sweden, but after the migrant crisis 2015 there is constant bombing and shootings in poor neighborhoods with smuggled Yugoslavian guns and explosives.
Now we will see yet another influx of guns from Ukraine and Russian conflict.
It's so much harder to inflict bodily harm with a ball point pen then a gun! Ban all guns is better.

In response to Jaish questions that I can not for some reason quote?
OK I have twice tried to put the report you asked about, but they will not allow it since it is damaging for US officials or something.
I was not notified the reason?
Sweden regularly launch satellites and scientific experiments in to low earth orbit. If they do military stuff it's unknown to the public.
As a complete surprise to the Finnish and Swedish people and media it looks like Russia is going to invade our countries?
At least according to USA:s Biden administration presented in a speech!
Maybe it's true but this information has not been shared with the public from the government of Sweden.
Maybe it's a way to get more popular among fellow Americans.
Wouldn't surprise me a bit.
Ukraine's President was more stressed then normal in today speech.
Putting a lot of effort into that God will punish the Russians.
Unknown to most Western people there is a big split in the Orthodox church.
Western Ukrainians support the Constantinople older version but Russians a newer version. For years there have been a power struggle and many murders has been committed and this war is turning to yet another religious war.
Many lies are being told in media by both sides but the ratio for EU and US citizens is that we here 95% from the Ukrainian side.
It is not surprising since Soviet union and Russia has been a pariah for a long time.
Strange is that a big piece of Soviet union now is such a friend to western powers.
This conflict will be Pandora's box for the western world now, no matter how this will play out.
Mark my words!

Yesterday February 28th 2022 I went to the police station and filed a criminal charge against many western leaders including Joe Biden and also Putin. Swedish politicians and media personalities as well. Yes it's seems totally crazy! But more crazy is that The Swedish parliament voted and have since 2022-01-01 implemented a new law called aggression crimes.
It makes it legal to prosecute individuals in political or military power in other countries and there actions against a third country. For an example the president of Voldemortstan says in media that the prime minister of Vulgarien eats little Voldemortstanian children for breakfast and we need to invade his country to stop it.
For reasons unknown Swedish politicians like to be important persons and want to police the world!The main reason for my actions is to prove that Sweden is non a democracy but is a bureaucrat dictatorship. My charge was handed to a police officer who said he will print it out tomorrow.It may or may not happen. he d then will present it to another police who is a interrogation leader. This person has the right to bin the charge. If he decides to give it to a prosecutor then the prosecutor can bin the charge. If by magic my charge will be put forward to court maybe media will take interest. I will of course send the police report if I get one that is, to some newspapers. They will not make a story of it, neither will radio or TV.
If a leader of a political party would have made this charge, that would have put the snow boll in motion but no one would do it for fear of loosing voters and USA. Sadly there is no equality in law or democracy in 99.5% of countries. From now I will be a target of the Swedish secret police and all that it means. But I don't care! The world should be a safe and prosperous place for all people, not just a few individuals who uses banks,loans and commercialism to make wage slaves out of all people.

What are you guys talking about? To declare the right to carry guns is not the same as in reality that they actually got any guns yet! The only people who have guns now are criminals and hunters. In media countries also stand in line to proclaim that they are going to send guns to Ukraine. It's all political acting to look good. And how is it going to be possible to transport guns in the near future? Planes will be shot down, borders are closed and soon all but the border south of Lviv be under Russian control. If Romania agree to have them transited through their territory they will be bombed to.
I can also imply that I will send ray guns to Ukraine but it's just not possible. If the west don't back down Russia will nuke city's there in the near future for sure. And nothing of this will help the Ukrainian people, only make them suffer more because och financial and political greed! Americans need to go out on the streets and protest against Biden and his involvement in this.

A common mistake that westerners do is that they do not understand other cultures. They project human traits even on animals! Thinking that all people behave the same. So if a westerner think that Russia will not use nuclear weapons it's based on a westerner mentality. This is very dangerous and US and EU politicians clearly have not a clue as to what they are doing. Ukrainian oligarchs and their President think they knew what they were doing but now they suffer the consequences. One would think being Slaves they should now but they were under the influence of western capitalist and advisers seeking to take over Ukraine's economic system as they have done with all western systems. Today on the news Ursula von Leyen proclaims that Ukraine will become a EU and Nato member. This is in principle a declaration of war against Russia since already many countries proclaim to want to send military supplies to Ukraine, that include Sweden who is going to send 5000 armor piercing anti tank guns according to Swedish statsminister Magdalena Andersson (a US puppet recently put there by the Biden administration!) Also a declaration of war! Sweden will need those weapons them self shortly. Our defense capabilities are very limited. We have spent the last 20 years scrapping almost everything. A couple of submarines, some planes and anti aircraft missiles and 18 years old kids with very limited training. By law all Swedish women and Men up to age of 75 must help in defense! I don't understand how a 74 year old women is going to make a difference!
In reality some rich greedy idiots who don't need more money have forced Biden to start this war. All the preparations we have seen the last two years. Covid sanctions, fuel prices increasing and climate change. Why do you think western countries have worked so hard to not to be fossil fuel dependent? It's not because of the climate but rather to have possibility to cope when Arabs and Russians turn of the supply. I wonder how the battery powered tanks will work? I said it before these economic dragons and there puppets should be arrested and put on trial before we have WW3 on our hands. Russia will not back down. Soon EU will have no more fuel making Covid a breeze before the storm and the worst crises humanity has ever seen will come. 10 years from now those western leaders will stand trial in Moscow for crimes of war, climate and humanity and be executed! Think about it Boris, Ursula, Magdalena etc. Biden is soon dead so he need not to worry. Republicans need to impeach Biden administration and declare a new election as soon as possible and put Trump in power again. No one else can solve this or prepare for a new world order to come, Moscow and Peking style.
To be honest I don't want a war but a new world order I can accept.

There has been war in Europe. Big one was between different old Yugoslavian members. Americans was involved and their planes was shot down. Looks like not only Biden but his speech writers all got Alzheimer's! Propaganda BS claiming this is the biggest war since WW2!

Go to wikipedia if you want to investigate one of the above.

Thompson Reuters is a Canadian 53% owned company with main office in New York city. It can be biased but I have not scrutinized their news flow. NPR and PBS focus on American news and does not have own reporters outside USA but rather just relay other news agencies stuff.
As for Russia not much is clear yet. I have seen private video clips with American made planes and very old Russian planes flying in formation above Ukrainian city . Russia does not use American planes. In an aerial combat you would not fly in formation. It's a Ukrainian army show of strength. Most likely in an response of Russian missile attack against military bases. Ukraine claims to have shot down 5 Russian planes. Could be drones or missiles as well. Nobody knows. It looks like Russia got tired of Nato poking in their nest and are now swarming like Wasps. Like Wasps they will sting anything that moves. The probable outcome of this is that other Russian enclaves around the world will be repatriated to Russia again. For those enclaves it's probably good, for Ukraine, Moldavia, Georgia etc not so good. Belarus, Turkey and China has clearly chosen side and that makes it look bad for Taiwan and Kurdistan as well. We can only hope that this doesn't spread to the Korean peninsula. If that happens we can possibly see the end of western civilization as we know it. USA and Nato is not a match against Communist and former communist countries. Yes I know Americans believes them self to be invincible but they made them self to reliable on Chinese tech and I would not be surprised that a lot of microchips will turn of in a conflict. Interesting what India will do. If they choose US side, Pakistan and Bangladesh will attack them as all other Muslim countries will join the communists. And Europe is full om Muslim men now. My suggestion is to let Russia have it's way with Ukraine. But who knows what they will tell Biden to do?

I don't know where you get your quotes?
Crimea: Russians have had a navy base there for much longer then USA has had Guantanamo base on Cuba.
Luhansk and Donetsk = Donbas: No official Russian military there yet. How ever it's a long border and Russians living in those regions with Ukrainian passports can travel to Russia and back. Since they have for 8 years constantly been under barrage from Ukrainian army who control about half of those regions. Today morning Swedish state controlled TV showed pictures of mortar attacks against civilian houses and power plants in separatist controlled areas. Not a word was said that this was Ukrainian army doing but they misled audience to believe it was Russian attack. I am not surprised. Our prime minister was hastily replaced by a puppet schooled in US university's. Sweden is no longer a neutral country but yet another Nato puppet. Covid 19 restrictions is on the way out and a new way to control people is needed. The prices of energy was increased to mask the coming wars influence on those prices. So to say, to get people used to high prices of energy. It is all masterminded by shadowy people and the puppet Biden has no backbone to object about it! If Trump had been in power there would not have been such a mess. There is one good thing about this though. I wonder how world leaders will explain their roll in the pollution that will be upon us from bombs, tank, planes and what not? Suddenly climate is not important! It goes to prove that human fault climate change is yet another lye that leaders pushed upon us! Or do Biden and his employers just don't care that we all slowly roast in a boiling world?
One final suggestion. Go to a library, find an pre WW2 encyclopedia and start reading. Or if you are lazy there is Wikipedia that politically neutral.
You will be amazed what today's media is omitting and history changing.

The ongoing discussions about US presidents and other high politicians did or didn't do things is just ridiculous! There is not a single President who don't have skeletons in the closet! Of course Trump rallied people, he believed the election was tampered and rightly so. In every banana republic this is common practice. As is tampering with votes. USA is no different! Stop believing you have a democracy in USA. Ask your self when any normal people had anything to do with creating or changing a federal political decision! USA is a country run by money and as long as you have a two party system with no popular votes except regular elections that will not change. In reality there is only one popular democracy in the world and that is Switzerland. They have bad culture in the banking system but that is another matter. I am sure there are past presidents that have accounts over there.
There is a machine that shreds paper. If all documentation was open and transparent such machine would never have been invented. Be sure that 0.1% of all power consumed in USA are used by such machines.
Biden administration loves them as well. If you check white house garbage and collect all the shredded paper you will have enough confetti needed for next fourth of July parade in Washington. Save the environment and have unemployed people piecing it together again and learn the truth about politics and rich people. Counting poor and homeless people ratio towards the population, you have among the highest number in the world of them. GNP is not a true value to judge a system. Poor and homeless are, and USA fails badly in that. And the only solution USA have now is to throw people in jail for long sentences. Worry about that instead of bad old presidents.
