More threats, smear, tantrum.
Finally, people in Mariupol can get out in a small number.
$1 billion per day is still hefty amount for Russia to keep its economy afloat.
In the short term, surging commodity prices are no doubt boosting Moscow's hard currency reserves, mitigating the $1 billion a day the war is estimated to be costing Russia. This means that Western sanctions, while draconian, have not pushed Russia into the economic abyss yet.

NOTE :
This "Arnab Goswami" is the guy who accused Pakistan of locust swarm attack! AND WARNING : lower the volume of the device if some one decides to listen to this guy.
Russia put an ethnic chechen in charge of the place and let him run amok against any and all opposition to his rule while also pumping tons of money in the region in order to reduce unemployment and thus the recruiting grounds of islamists and separatists.
Russia backed the Chechen-loyalists regime against the Chechen-rebels.
In other words, Chinese and Japanese were against each other's throats, but doesn't mean some Hanjian like Wang Jingwei can't form a Japanese-backed puppet state of "China". Plenty of Hanjians in China during WW2.
So you can't take Russian propaganda at face value: A video showing few hundred Chechens doesn't mean all Chechens are willing to die for Russian imperialism. In other words, these minority Chechens are already loyalists to Russians and already part of Russian military apparatus.
Yep, exactly how I imagined from the Anglo warriors. Talk big but cry and run away at the first sign of danger. It''s also important to note most of these guys are current/former soldiers, not untrained people off the street.
I'm surprised the Ukraianians let them go so easily. They've put some investment into them and countries don't win wars by letting their soldiers desert. It would have been smarter to force them to stay and fight. If they get killed or caught that's more pressure on America to get involved.
