Lavrov gave an ultimatum and many analysts think this is a likely scenario. Watch some of Bartosiak's English videos. Many people in central Europe definitely think this scenario is still possible. You and your Covod-HIV denying friend are simply ignorant. This is also a reason why there is so much support for Ukraine in the region.

"...for greater motivation, the officials in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast promised to pay..."

That trick only worked up until everyone realized that their promises do not result in actual payment.

Just another Russian own-goal.

Not to mention. The promises started at 100s of thousands of dollars worth. Which never panned out. Then it got reduced and still mostly did not pan out. Now it's in the order of $100 or so a month in social services rendered and...

Yeah. Good luck with that lol

Russia’s ‘most hidden crime’ in Ukraine war: Rape of women, girls, men and boys

Ukrainian authorities believe cases of sexual assault by Russian occupiers are vastly underreported. Shame and many factors underlie survivors' unwillingness to report rapes.

That type of thing is hardly even illegal in Russia. There is hardly any recourse for Russian women in matters of domestic abuse even. Let alone on the street. So... Of course the incidence during the invasion must be high.

An article written by Ilya Ponomarev in 2014; reflecting on Maidan and other topics relating to Ukraine. Requires translation.

And again about Ukraine
Recently, there have been too many, I am not afraid of this word, idiots, especially with some high-profile official status, who are trying to completely distort my position on Ukraine and pass off white for black. Especially for them, I explain my position point by point:

1. As a person of leftist views, I respect the right of people to revolt - both in Kiev, and in the Crimea, and in the East of Ukraine. I believe that in all these cases there were fundamental reasons for public protests, and no external forces - neither Russia, nor America and Europe - would ever have raised such massive waves if people were not concerned about their future, would not want decisive changes and would trust their authorities.

2. Based on the above, the events in Kiev and in the East for me have the same nature, although they involve completely different segments of society: for the Russian audience, I would draw very risky parallels between the Maidan and Bolotnaya, and between the defenders of the White House in 1993 and the protesters in the East.
