US-plaining is not enough. To the Western left, on your and our mistakes
You face a challenge of reacting to a war that is not waged by your countries. There is no simple way to frame an anti-war message. One thing remains painfully clear: you can help deal with the consequences of the war providing assistance to refugees from Ukraine no matter what skin colour or...

No need to declare captured Russian tanks, other equipment of invaders as income – NAPC
Ukraine's National Agency for the Protection against Corruption (NAPC) has declared that captured Russian tanks and other equipment are not subject to declaration.

This is an important thread on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. If you want to continue banging on about fucking OFCOM banning or not banning RT, then perhaps create a new thread, or use one of the existing threads that are more suited to the conversation e.g. Russia pariah state, or the British response to the invasion.

Apologies if this has been posted already. It's Zelinsky whilst he was comidian on a sketch when he is talking about EU membership. What a guy.
I watched it a second time and then realised if the backdrop was Kiev that it probably won't be there soon
Edit. Weirdly it says removed, but if you click the reddit icon it works (for me)

The Telegraph this time
Refugees say that international students fleeing Ukraine are dying by the side of the road from hypothermia and heart attacks, after being stuck for days in the snow and having guns pointed at them by Ukrainian soldiers.
Thousands of students from Africa, South Asia and the Middle East are trying to flee Putin's invasion of Ukraine into neighbouring countries like Poland and Hungary. But the United Nations said on Tuesday that black and brown refugees are facing racism at the border.
Dozens of refugees who recently made it through into Poland also told The Telegraph they had been racially abused and treated “worse than animals” as they tried to escape.
“[The border guards] screamed very bad words in Ukrainian. They are humiliating us. We felt like a pack of sheep waiting for the farmer to open the door for the sheep to go outside,” said Fedy Ben Bahim, an 18-year-old medical student from Tunisia who fled the city of Dnipro five days ago.

Yes I know it's not an "oil field". The point I was making is that the US is also an importer of Russian oil (more than double the amount last year than the year before) and that it should be sanctioned. The sanctions done so far won't be anywhere near as effective. The US could supply the oil until something happens. Then they could drop the sanctions and go back to buying Russian oil.Again, sorry for the derail:
Please be more precise in how you're naming things. I think you're getting the Keystone XL pipeline confused with the Keystone Pipeline System. The existing system (the Keystone Pipeline System) is still functional and wasn't shut down. The Keystone XL line that was to run from Canada into Nebraska was denied a permit and hasn't been built yet. If the Keystone XL pipeline was allowed a permit to be built (extremely unlikely), it would take a minimum of two years before it would be functional.

back on the other side
Very good analysis on Novara tonight, particularly talking about the two key issues on my mind:
-addressing the presentation of Russian failure and questioning the media narrative of the war
(im not totally convinced by the narrative of Ukraine 'winning' and Russian failure - much as I would like that to be true)
and
-the degree of the west further arming Ukrainian forces and what the consequences of that really are
(im cautious if not outright against the west putting endless arms in and standing back to watch the carnage and tutting how sad it is, meanwhile achieving their imperial objectives and also risking wider escalation)

This is not what you want to hear. Hopefully this either didn't happen or was caused by somethin altogether different than a nervous Russian warship. The tweet also says "Romanian MoD reported the IAR 330 went down 11km from the airfield. The MiG-21 pilot had reported bad weather & received orders to return to base". So hopefully that's it.
