Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania were historically parts of Tsarist Russia that declared independence and fought wars of liberation at the end of WW1, but were subsequently annexed by Stalin in 1940 on the pretext of Russia providing defensive assistance. The Baltic states had been part of the Polish-Lithuanian Union in the late Middle Ages before falling under the influence of Sweden as it, temporarily, became the dominant military power in the region. As Swedish power receeded the rise of Russia led to a change of focus towards Moscow and ultimately absorbtion into that empire, along with Finland. So in the last 250 years they have been 'independant' for a total of about 50, for the rest they have been efectively "Russian". ( More history, less propaganda 🙂 )

Putin has his own foreign nutcases joining in - the Chechens have rolled up for a ruck, fighting alongside the Russians in Donbas.

And probably knock up half of them.

The thing with this team at the moment is the number of players presenting a goal threat; if Broja or Che don't score we still have KWP, Ely, Stu, and now Romeu, all of whom are shooting on sight, with effect, without counting JWP's free kicks.

Why the fuck is RT still broadcasting it's bullshit Putin propaganda in this country ?

An organisation created by the 5 major allies that won WW2, ( and yes that does include France ). They made the rules and gave themselves permanent control of the General Assembly, and is why the US has a history of blocking resolutions condemning Israel.

Forster's long kicks seem to be too low.

I still can't see him as a tank commander heading into Bosnia.

Put that question to Mr Southgate.

Play for Man Utd, Man City, or Chelsea.

What would you have left to listen to ?

Now if it was 5000 Helmuts.......

They are pleading that they are a "special case". If everybody claiming an exemption had it granted, there would be no sanctons at all. There is no such thing as a one-way injunction.
-
Not that I for an instant think this is even a "thing", if it does happen, whilst Saints are taking instructions and gels are the other team just running on the spot ?
-
They would still be alive if the Russians had stayed out. Blue on Blue Russian casualties are sad for their families, but entirely the fault of Putin and his enablers.

Posting on two different threads only reinforces the idiocy of this statement. The EU was founded with, partly, the intent of removing the threat of another war between France and Germany, given that most European wars since the fall of the Roman Empire have involved those countries, or their precursors, but especially WW1 and WW2.
-
The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, says that negotiations can start once Ukraine has surrendered and agreed to be "de-militarised".
-
War between France and Germany, yes, given that most European wars since the fall of the Roman Empire have involved those countries, or their precursors, but especially WW1 and WW2.

Try explaining this to your insurance company " It was like this, a bloody great Russian tank suddenly appeared......"

Of course, Russia doesn't use the Internet or international communications networks.

Alice ? Alice ? Who the fuck is Alice ?

So, I again ask you, where do you draw the line ? Estonia ? Latvia ? Lithuania ? Poland ? Czechia ?
