If you feel that Russia is incapable of fortifying a region then I respect your viewpoint but completely disagree.

They aren’t making it look easy at the moment.

Do you think our press is likely to run stories like "Russia Successfully Builds Trenches And Lays Minefields". 

Katy Price has just breached a court order. That's real news.  😀

What are people's thoughts on 9th of May? Will Putin up his attack, do something even more stupid or let it pass peacefully?

What's the significance of 9th May?

Japan has delivered a stark warning to Russia over their illegal occupation of the Kurill islands, meaning that Russia probably needs to allocate more troops and resources to reinforce these islands. 

Finland can’t get into NATO quickly enough so that Putin needs to allocate people to their whole border. It’ll stretch Russian resources extremely thin.

Russian operatives, notably from the Wagner group, are also causing problems in Mali. Civilians murdered and a false flag mass grave designed to implicate the French.

Suspected Russian mercenaries participated in an operation with Mali’s army in March in which about 300 civilian men were allegedly killed over five days, Human Rights Watch (HRW) says.

Witnesses and local community leaders said hundreds of men were rounded up and killed in small groups during the anti-jihadist operation on 23 March in the central town of Moura. The rural town of about 10,000 inhabitants is in the Mopti region, a hotspot of jihadist activity that has intensified and spread to neighbouring countries in the Sahel region.

The French military has accused Russian mercenaries in Mali of staging a mass grave using real bodies in an apparent attempt to frame French forces and discredit Paris’s counterterrorism operation in the region. 

Images gathered by an intelligence overflight conducted by the French Armed Forces last week and shared with Foreign Policy show around a dozen white men in combat fatigues—thought to be operatives from the Kremlin-linked Wagner Group—shoveling sand over a pile of bodies partially buried near the site of the former French military base in Gossi. 

The images were gathered just days after France handed control of the base over to the Malian Armed Forces as part of its military withdrawal from the country, following nearly 10 years of counterterrorism operations.

Seems that they’ve got their nasty fingers in many pies.
