"" Russia has thrown out the diplomatic playbook for peace in Ukraine with recognition of breakaway regions, top U.S. diplomat to United Nations tells Security Council. "Today, President Putin has torn the Minsk agreements to shreds," Amb. Linda Thomas-Greenfield said "" "" WH spokesperson: "We plan to announce new sanctions on Russia tomorrow (Tuesday) in response to Moscow's decisions and actions today. We are coordinating with allies and partners on that announcement "" Can we get a Biden Photoshop of the "sanctions are coming" with Putin going "I will resist you" Hoping Putin is also stabbed with an obsidian blade.

I for one would be happy if people didn't have to die to appease Putin's anachronistic idea of what should constitute a Russian sphere of influence in the year 2022.

If this turns into full blown shooting I hope the bloodshed is minimal and it's over quickly. Modern warfare is horrible and dehumanizing. Being killed without hope by remorseless robots fired from 50 miles away is a terrible way to die. Armenia and Azerbaijan was awful. Syria is awful it's all awful.

This is a lot to summarize but basically the Russian rep is blaming Ukrainian aggression for this move and vowing Russia will protect the breakaway republics. Ukraine speaking now.

Herstory Begins Now posted:putin does speaks about the soviet era in a sentimental way sometimes (eg the famous 'anyone who doesn't miss the soviet union has no heart, anyone who wants it back has no brain'), but nothing really about his decisions or the power structures or economic decisions he's involved with suggest any favorable sentiment towards communism. Very much the opposite, if anything. I'd say many Russians of his generation who weren't actively dissidents have a similar attitude to the USSR.

Nice round of fist bumps between Kyslytsya, Thomas-Greenfield, and Woodward at the end there. Where was the discussion in Putin's speech about the lists of undesirables? I remember some language about hunting people down but I thought it was referring to the Odessa fire.
