The lack of windows involved indicates it might not be a state sponsored sanction against the PM. More like replacing election with natural selection?
Well, if I want to go deep into the conspiracy hole, there is a scenario, where the PM and friends staged this. PM published after his candidate won president elections, that someone backed by the opposition is planning to kill someone from coalition. During the incident his bodyguards made like billion of mistakes, so there is that crazy theory, that the old guy just forgot, that he has to shoot in the air. The reason for this, that like few minutes after the attempt, his interview with police has been leaked together with medical records of PM (which is strictly against the law). It was leaked by someone from the police. There the pro-russian guy has stated, that he does not like the steps made by the pro-russian PM, to change the country into authoritarian state. And the first interview with the other guys from the party, immediately have said, that this incident was in making since the results of presidential elections. And almost immediatelly our social media space in country has been infested by extremely high russian troll farm bots activity.

Now it starts to be interesting, the guy whot shot the PM, has written a “novel” full of hate speech against gypsies, and in the past was associated with pro-russian paramilitary group Slovenskí Branci. It starts to smell more and more as a Russian infulence operation.

Do we know the reason for the assassination? Is the shooter a nutjob or it political and if its political what is the political reason because it could be lots of things
Keep us updated
He was a writer. Nothing else is known so far. No nutjob for sure. More like absolute frustration. Smer has destroyed lives of many people. I was expecting to see something like this sooner or later, with the rhetorics of his political party, and with them ruining a lot of people in the past, especially in the construction sector. I am just absolutely surprised, that the guy decided to go so high in the “food chain”. He travelled aprox 80 kms to meet him.
Oh and I forgot to mention in my first post, that the PM is alive for now, but in critical condition.

An assassination on our pro-russian Prime minister has been performed. People are talking about Karma biting him back, as he was during the last 4 year doing his best to divide the people here and demonized journalists, liberals, LGBT communities, progresives, immigrants, intelectuals, etc... It is said, he was shot 4 times in chest and stomach. He is currently being hospitalized in one of the hospitals, which has been "robbed" out of Euro funds by his party people and friends.
The shooter was 71-year old man. A primary target audience of his party.-

Interesting piece on Shoigu's replacement.
Tweet of note from it:
Looks like attrition war for years to come.
Now that the information speculations have settled down a little bit and more details have been revealed, The most interesting thing in this Grand Reshuffle is the “Sacking” of above mentioned Patrushev. He was once considered as a successor to Putin, and now, he has been appointed as Putin’s aide. Shoigu, unlike his lapdogs (two more of them has been reportedly arrested), has been moved to similarily powerful position, but Patrushev’s new position is considered as a big demotion.

Yes I do, unfortunately, because the Russian army is now actaully bigger in available combat units than it was in 2022, and those units are now experienced and battle-hardened. But most importantly, they have massive amounts of artillery available (which they have already used very effectively to clear out Ukrainian defenses in several border villages around Khar'kiv) whereas Ukraine's artillery capability, heavily outnumbered to begin with, is relatively nonconsequential because they've run out of munitions.
Looks like we start to have first partially good news from Kharkiv front. Russian milbloggers are starting to complain about badly trained units on this front, who lack even basic knowledge of proper formations to have a chance to avoid drone strikes. So it looks like, all the experienced and battle-hardened units are at different fronts, or already dead

Whats with all these recent arrests in Russia, I heard its something to do with corruption within the Russian arms industry and the state being overcharged and the economic impact on the fiscus?
Shoigu's replacement is an economist?
Whenever is someone in Russia charged by corruption, it means, that he had dared to steal from a booty of someone above him

StarCrawlers 2 out of early access. I had a lot of fun with the first game, so I can only recommend it. They are only a few people, and the lead guy has been talking to me whenever I have reported a bug in the first game to him, even few years after it's release. And of course, he fixed it in a timely manner.

Well, they don't necessarily have to "take" the city. They just need to encircle it and then lay seige to it. They themselves are going to realize that if the point is to trade it away, then it makes no sense to expend the kind of resources it would take from them to capture the city. But it also keeps open the possibility that the Ukrainian defenses in the city simply collapse.
Forcing the Ukrainian side to accept defeat/surrender on Russia's terms is ultimately the end-game for Russia. Their first strategy to accomplish this end-game was to try and take a huge swath of Ukraine, essentially all of Ukraine east of and including Kiev, and force surrender in this way. That did not work. Their second strategy was to try and coerce the Ukrainian side by threatening to escalate to the use of tactical nukes. That also didn't work, mainly because of the external pressure on the Russians, including even from their friends. Now this is their third plan for coercing Ukraine's surrender, born from their battlefield succeses in eastern Ukraine recently. And this plan is the one that has a really good chance of succeeding, especially because Ukraine's Western allies are "going wobbly" (to use a line from Thatcher back in the day), and because within Ukraine itself we now have political differences over war strategy and Zelenskiy is no longer seen as Superman.
According to various sources, RU has accumulated aprox 32000 men around Kharkiv. Looking back at 2022, when they had probably same number of men and the advantage of surprise, and less armed and trained UA army, and were not able to encircle the city for more than half year. Do you think they might have a better chance now? Especially when you consider, that they lost more than 17000 men trying to surround Avdiivka.
edit: General staff of UA has also posted a new record from yesterday:

Looks like Shoigu not attending the inauguration had really deeper background in the end. Putin has “recommended” new minister of defense to take Shoigu’s place.

I don't see Shoigu being in any particular danger, either -- or at least in any more danger than anyone else under Putin. (Which also means that he's completely subject to Putin's whims, whatever they may be, of course.)
But when @Mamoulian War writes that "Looks like there might be a lot of rumours emerging in the next few weeks" (see above), the statement itself is rather irrelevant: one thing we certainly haven't had ever since the beginning of the war is a lack of rumours.
Btw, when it comes to rumours, interpretations, theories and all the rest of it, just about the only interesting thing outside real news was the time when S. Lavrov appeared in that conference (in Bali, was it?) wearing a Basquiat T-shirt. That almost made me think that the guy was trying to send a message there, given the obvious discrepancy between Russia's stated line and Basquiat. But even if he was, I don't think the message had either a point or any discernible content.
Well we already had a lot of rumours about deaths of some high russian officials and their “health” issues. About Lukashenko as well. I was just simply curious, what we will “know” for sure in the next few days
. Shoigu being at the parade just bursted the bubble of anticipation I had 
. As much as I would like to see him at the next Tea Party, It is just interesting to watch how the wishful thinking spreads fast in the west as well

Looks like there might be a lot of rumours emerging in the next few weeks. After jailing Shoigu’s thieving right hand, Shoigu was not seen at Putin’s “inauguration”. Let’s see, if he will be around the Red Square during today’s parade

Not sure, if anyone here likes racing much, but this week, I got one of the most intense races in a long time. Very balanced field, where between 7th and my 21st position in qualification was less than 1 second difference
Start was pretty solid, gained a little bit, but made a big mistake at the end of the first lap and dropped down to 26th place. After that I have started my slow progress to get up to 11th position, where I have experienced few "near-miss" situations, where the car right in front of me or right behind me was taken out. At the end, I got to position 10, as the guy right in front of me, has been penalized after the race by stewards 
I watched it today again and could not believe how lucky I got few times, but still crazy good race that was

Mamie what is the historical connection between Moldova and Romania, did they use to be one country?
Yes, then Soviet Union decided to "liberate" them, and annexed Moldova from Romania. The results were tens of thousands executed and deported Romanians to Siberia.

It's so hard to take Macron seriously here that I instantly pictured a forthcoming chemical war involving soldiers with yesterday's garlic on their breath on the one side, and soldiers with yesterday's vodka on their breath on the other.
BUT let's hope Macron delivers, should the need arise.
Yes, I am looking at it with a pinch of skepticism as well, but I am glad, that at least someone opened this topic, and I am pretty sure at least Poland, Baltics and probably Romania joins this initiative soon. I am pretty sure, this notion might have something to do with the danger in Moldova as well. Some time ago, Romania planned to change their law, which should give them right to send some kind of direct military help as well. Moldova has now Romanian language as official state language.

Only few idiots have always sparked the hate. I am half Hungarian as well with very Hungarian surname, and I live in the area, where there is a lot of hate against immigrants (which are actually almost non-existent here
) And IIRC last time, I have experienced the hate against my “bloodline” was maybe 30-35 years ago. Currently the mostly visible hate against diverse people here, is hate against gypsies and gays. On the other hand, lesbians are the most sought for term at various channels which offer “documentary” entertainment
