SWITZERLAND—After serious deliberations deep inside the super-secret Nobel Prize Compound in Switzerland or wherever, the Nobel committee of medicine deciders have awarded the coveted Nobel Prize in Medicine to Russia’s President Vladimir Putin for singlehandedly ending the COVID pandemic...

Wow, I had no idea that you thought Putin was so insecure and needy.
We should have sent him the bouncy castles and hot tubs and spared the world.
Agree with your sentiments, but the West needed to do something about him long time ago. But noone wanted to bear the costs of it, so, this is what it become. You should treat cancer in an early stage even if the operation is dangerous and costly, not wait until it will grow and kill you.
But when the cancer is in someone else's body, you have to wait until they ask for help.

Good point. You can see how brazen Putin is assassinating people out of his favor around the globe. Why wouldn't one of his successors off Putin in exile?
I do question this "liberal lefty country" offering Putin asylum logic. Putin is neither a lefty nor a liberal. He's a reactionary. He's a corrupt kleptocrat. He's a ruthless dictator. He's a lot of things, but liberal lefty is not one of them.
There are only a few countries where he would be welcome. Would he want to live in North Korea, Iran or Syria? Perhaps Venezuela. Are there any island nations run by dictators? Oh yeah, Cuba. Cuba has nice weather.

It's mostly nice to be on the same side of this Frank. Of course, you have to add your now expected distracting comments.
I guess Russia vs. Ukraine is a fairly inconsequential choice for you given this is mostly Caucasians fighting each other.
I think "fall" is saying that the Leader of Russia is a job for life whether death comes sooner or later.Russian leaders do not step down or got replaced through election
Its a start, wyatt. Though I'd say this skirmish stands to be more consequential long term than anything we've seen for a while.
If Russia succeeds, China takes Taiwan.
If they fail, Putin falls, Russia is screwed and China steps back.
I've seen your name referenced on another thread as being empathetic to Russia. What posts of yours would have given someone this idea?
Cuba he'd be liable for a nasty slip and fall into a pool sometime late one night. Just need a couple of resourceful CIA guys with Canadian passports. Cuba is urban, busy and open to Western tourism.
Venezuela won't last forever. Brazil??... Bolsie is a fanboi and it's big and anonymous.
Understanding is NOT the same as supporting or sympathizing.
Majority of you get facts about Russia/Ukraine from occasional news and haven't followed relationship between either country long enough to really know what's what.
Russia DOES have legitimate concerns about security. NATO expanded all the way to it's borders and Ukraine asked to join NATO multiple times.
Days before invasion, Zelensky announced at Munich Security Conference (Feb.18-20, 2022) that Ukraine no longer recongizes it's nuclear neautral status and will regain it's nuclear capabilities.
In Fall of 2013 there was a US government tender (Naval Facilities Engineering Command (DOD - Navy) to build a Naval Base in Sevastopol. In February 2014 a coup happened. Perfect fckn timing.
Took me while to find it, but here it is:

And that's just a tip of the iceberg.
I believe Putin won Russian Idol. He also has incredible scoring prowess in hockey. Renaissance man!

That's a school reno. And that's when Yanukovych was president of Ukraine. And the amount of work is fairly minor - "The estimated cost of construction is between $250,000 and $500,000." There are HOUSE RENOS in Toronto that cost more than that!Understanding is NOT the same as supporting or sympathizing.

The rest of your post - Canada lives beside a major nuclear power. So does Luxembourg. So does Ireland. Does Canada then invade the USA? Does Ireland invade the UK? Does Luxembourg invade France?
There has to be a cogent threat. Not only was there no US threat to conduct a nuclear strike on Russia, but Trump was seeking closer relations with Russia. The US does not have a history of nuclear attacks or nuclear blackmail. And certainly not in relation to other major nuclear powers, because doing so would cause World War 3 and that makes no sense whatsoever.

I'm not sure if you're a professional hack, a heckler, troll or something else.
How can you read an article and come to a conclusion that reno cost is $250-500K??? Unbefcknlivable!
