I think I feel like all Swedes now, a little happy that the ruzzians remember us but also a strong need to help Ukraine more and to help them win

Meanwhile...

These geriatric sociopathic Russian pricks are stuck in the imperial past .. Ooooh - we are really scary and fought Sweden for 21 years. England fought France for a 100 years and nobody drones on about it like these Russki cocks keep on crowing

Bisous de France, mon canard !

;P

Another russian confirming the utter unloveliness of russia.

🤣 russia bragging about another war they lost

raymondkraemer.bsky.social•14 days ago

"We fought Sweden for 21 years."

😅😅😅

1700-1721

More like '' we got our asses kicked for 21 years until we got lucky ''.
They went scorched earth and burnt down their own country, got the coldest winter in over a thousand years just randomly and the Swedish king got randomly injured and couldn't partake in the last battle.

svitjod.bsky.social•14 days ago

Yet another war Russia started..

phanto.bsky.social•14 days ago

OK, when is he sending his kids to play hide and seek with UAVs ?

lliiku.bsky.social•14 days ago

This is the russian contribution to the World. They are worse than useless for mankind.

kaldr93.bsky.social•13 days ago

Is he talking about the war where Russia destroyed their own country and got lucky with the coldest winter in over a thousand years and the Swedish king became sick and couldn't partake in the battle?

Before that Sweden was kicking Russian butt lol.

kaldr93.bsky.social•13 days ago

He got injured not sick I misremembered, he got injured by a stray bullet yet more Russian luck.

Sure they are ready - already relying on North Korean supplies and using electric scooters and donkeys with some Mad Max rejects' tactics on battlefield.
Russia can continue for sure and destroy itself in the process.
The sooner the better.

bathshebablue.bsky.social•14 days ago

If Russia doesn’t want war, all they have to do is get the fuck out of Ukraine.

Simple!

marcelovaldez.bsky.social•13 days ago

Russia needs to be fully defeated.

breizh4azov.bsky.social•14 days ago

Medinsky or Putin can say "We fought" whereas they have never been a soldier.
"We fought" but "Other die".
They are clowns.

pbossy.bsky.social•14 days ago

russians admit they are warmongers. No real surprise given how little they value human life.

alexsmirnov.bsky.social•14 days ago

In three years at this pace, the russian army will be fighting robots and AI, the war they will never be able to win.

richwingerter9.bsky.social•14 days ago

That's what happens in primitive, feudal societies. Repeated wars. Lots of peasants dying. Here's an idea: step into the modern world, where countries respect each other's boundaries. Pull out the Budapest Memorandum and look at what you're supposed to do.

Then, live up to your promises.

Treaty of West-Phalia.

ulvhednar.bsky.social•14 days ago

Paradoxically, this is good news... anyone who knows ruZZian politics knows that it is always the opposite of what they officially communicate.

devos83.bsky.social•14 days ago

"we don't want war, your surrender will do."
Brazen wankers.

jayzee71.bsky.social•14 days ago

Medinsky is a cowardly-ball-licker of the chinless wonder - Putin.

vava-99.bsky.social•14 days ago

Yea,right, after tanks made in 1950s they'll start sending women, children and goats to the frontline 👍

untrmann.bsky.social•14 days ago

So he exactly told that they want war. Nothing else. Russian motherfuckers.

brookdale05.bsky.social•13 days ago

While being in a war they can’t get out of.

chiefjoer.bsky.social•14 days ago

The response to this kind of talk should be, 'You are a nothing country, you cannot even take one tiny town in Ukraine. You are less than zero. We will grind you to dust, and your children will have no memory of a country called Russia.' Then slap a shoe on the table.

neilrobinson.bsky.social•14 days ago

In a time when wars were only fought during small portions of the year, marched on foot for weeks at a time, and then went into winter quarters.

kaldr93.bsky.social•13 days ago

Also Russia got their asses kicked until the coldest winter in over a thousand years arrived and they burnt their own country down scorched earth tactics and the Swedish king became randomly ill and had to sit the battle out.

The small Swedish pop kicked their ass lol.

constantin87.bsky.social•14 days ago

There’s no way they can sustain a war for many years. They’ve already spent two-thirds of their National Wealth Fund (its liquid part). They’re just pretending to be stronger than they really are.

jayzee71.bsky.social•14 days ago

This, 100%. They know they are fucked, but would rather die on their sword than admit it.

alexsmirnov.bsky.social•14 days ago

Saddam Hussein syndrome

jayzee71.bsky.social•14 days ago

Wish he goes the same way as Saddam. Those last few seconds would add inches to his height, albeit on his neck 🤣
