Two Belarusian helicopters entered Polish airspace then left, guess I was wrong, those Wagner guys may actually pose a danger.

Based on last time, probably something mundane like that, rather than something like nuking Kiev - https://www.rferl.org/a/kremlin-drone-attack-eu-warning-borrell-ukraine/32395001.html

We'll see, probably will be an interesting sell to Ukrainian people. Kasparov will have a stroke too, thinking of that, heh.

Ukraine's been pretty vocal that they take the war as starting in 2014. Another drone strike in Moscow, same building too.

Stupid coup plotters, should have arranged for the French to pull another Aristide

So these 100 Wagner guys have people worried for some reason.

I think both would work to help feed Africans, no?

The not free grain from Russia can though 😛

Tropico has put the part from 5:51 in the back of my mind for years

Came in and found that a DB job has been failing every day for 6 months, and no one has noticed. Head dev asked pertitent question of "What does this job actually do then ?" I am beginning to think that 90% of operations in my company don't actually DO anything

God damn forum. Yep, I mean if France or whoever decided to go on a training exercise that would be the reasoning given. Not sure it'll come to that, though, is a far off conflict

They can always invade, as per the rules based international order.

Solution in search of a problem.

Doens't really seem like he wrote that. Sure is being marketed to me as yet another reason this war is a global struggle and no nation can shrug their shoulders at it, heh. Price impacts would matter, though.

Should just have called it the Black Sea Agricultural Initiative.

https://www.un.org/en/black-sea-grain-initiative/data Neat breakdown, and people always talk crap about the UN.

China probably wants the grain they were getting from Ukraine.

Because Satan's power was waning.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/7/24/russia-says-it-foiled-a-ukrainian-drone-attack-on-moscow Guess they missed with one

Well, don't worry, it'll be fixed by DLC
