That reporting is inaccurate if so. If you follow the Ukrainian news story link in the OP, you can click on the link to Kadyrov’s Telegram post and machine translate it or ask a Russian speaker translate its first sentence. It literally says “received from Musk”.

Why would a Nazi need a proxy for X?

They previously had a public exchange in the vein of Musk and Zuckerberg challenging each other to a fight, so it could be either.

Its main strength is that Ukraine would probably want to have Kadyrov’s personal Cybertruck as a trophy, so they’d be careful not to destroy it.

Remember your “to Berlin” car stickers, Russia?

He should have said “the special military operation”. A missed opportunity.

For now. Eventually they will be exchanged and sent back to war.

Is it not obvious to you that not all governments are equal? Ukraine was invaded for no reason except for Putin’s longing for the Soviet Union or the idea of an empire that can compete with the West.

The propagandists cheer for every bombing of Ukraine and say “we must do more”. Tatarsky, who was killed in Saint Petersburg, even had fought in the Donbas, and there’s a more recent video of him saying “let’s kill and rob”.

There are laws in many countries that can get you locked up for advocating for killing people or making serious threats. In war, arresting may not always be an option.

Must be the XY chromosomes. /s

The Slidstvo.info reporters have published his name and photos.

In part because they bought property in the region after the annexation.

Average is a poor metric, as it accounts for the rich who steal like there’s no tomorrow in countries like Russia. Go by the minimum.

Why would he be dead? As with the Prigozhin mutiny, he’ll just fly somewhere away from Moscow and hide in a bunker, which could be in central Russia or near China.

Right. How many years has it been since the DNC hack?

*Refinery in try-to-pronounce-me

Go with the easiest explanation. The so-called elections are in just a few days and the authorities need to display their ability to keep everything under control.

Exactly. As with Hitler and the Olympics, the 2014 Olympics taking place in Russia empowered Putin to invade Crimea.

My personal suggestions:

• Палала by Anka
• Разом by Tvorchi
• Tsunamia by Yagody

Edit: Added Skylerr.

Will you ban Russia from competing? You should.

In the history of Russia, it gets better only for a moment, just to say that freedom is chaotic and justify another dictator at the helm for decades.
