    Yeah, Russian state news agency. Very credible source. At least you can learn from this article that Slutsky is a clown. Just like anyone from Russian government.

      Is strange for a Russian news agency to report what a member of their government said?

      As opposed to Reuters, BBC, CNN and NY Times, all private entities fully aligned with US and NATO foreign policy? Who died and made western media more credible than anyone else’s lmao.

        You can’t compare these news agencies with Russian ones. Russian propaganda is very powerful. More powerful that you can imagine. I suggest you to read independent Russian news sites like Meduza https://meduza.io/en

          The power of your imagination is way more powerful than any Russian propaganda when we’re talking about a news agency like TASS that dryly reports news and quotes, directly equivalent to Reuters and AP. And I can directly compare all the ones I mentioned with Russian and Chinese ones. I can even compare results between the crappy western search engines and yandex on foreign policy topics and you’ll be terminally embarrassed by how much the western algorithms censor and downgrade.

          Pretty disappointing to see NATO shilling coming from disroot but I can’t say I’m surprised unfortunately.

    So in other words, you fear corruption has gone so deep that you’re not even sure that your nukes are in working order

    Meaning that Putin will be very cross, stomp his feet and slam a few doors impotently, then cry himself to sleep in his body pillow?

      Only if he has been using it to smash windows.

      As far as I can tell. He just uses people who annoy him.
