Global opinion seems to be against Russia. UNGA with a big majority asks Russia to withdraw and cease hostilities. 141-5-35. Also didnt expect Serbia to vote Yes. Interesting.

I am surprised of Serbia too. I expected them to abstain. A "yes" vote from Serbia won't change the mind of those countries recognizing Kosovo, everyone knows it. Sticking to the principle does not help Serbia in anyway.

Population is a poor metric because then India's opinion becomes more valuable than the entire continent of Africa and will be more valuable than Chinas by 2030.
I get your point, it's not how the UN works anyway, but I do think it makes sense that the opinion of a country with more population should carry more weight.

In any case, Indian opinion is already the most important in the world in 2020 2030.

A few days ago, British intelligence said that Russia has around 600 deaths so probably somewhere between 500 to 1000 is a fair assessment.

No wonder @sequ is busy spamming the Ukrainian conflict thread. He's just simply expressing the collective frustration of the Turkish people.
Its actually pity that such talented nation in engineering and workmanship cannot realize its full potential due to its policies. Turkey should have been another Japan or Korea. They had idea about this day.

That article is plain mental gymnastic self serving propaganda.

Since Russia is cut off SWIFT, it is impossible for anyone including Chinese banks to transfer EURO and Dollar payment to Russia via SWIFT. This has nothing to do with China's attitude to Russia. Bloomberg as usual twist this reality to "China shunning Russian Coal". This is equal as saying "Because US sanction Huawei, Chinese people is shunning Huawei".

I would appreciate that, either you put your comment or analysis about the article, or avoid posting such article all together.
