Google map of that road trip from Moscow to Kaliningrad: https://goo.gl/maps/J7Keop8XqHqENdME9
It is 16 hr 42 min (1,264 km) via M-9

I know what you mean. Putin just took Belarus. He may be going from the coastline of Estonia down through Lithuania.

Quote:That road trip to Kaliningrad is shortened by 9 hr 24 min (777 km) if Putin starts it more toward the border of Latvia with Russia. Later, Putin crosses into Lithuania. Nothing is stopping Putin from taking that trip, or sending his Army instead, other than worthless paper treaties forbidding taking the trip.

I find it very unsurprising that Putin is divorced. The guy forgets anniversaries, birthdays, pledges of fidelity to his wife, treaties with Ukraine, you name it, Putin can forget it. There is some other President that was divorced, forget his name, but you never could trust a written promise, even business contracts, from him, just like you can't trust Putin to keep a promise.
Russian President Vladimir Putin may have had an affair with sexy former Kremlin spy Anna Chapman, the latest in a series of rumors about Putin’s numerous affairs, The Daily Mail reports.
Putin’s philandering has apparently gotten so bad that many are blaming it for the disappearance of his wife of 29 years, Lyudmila Putina, from the spotlight. Putin, 59, has been photographed just twice with his wife in the last two years, according to the New York Post.

Yeah. They should have stayed together like the Clintons did.
Go fuck yourself.

Quote:As usual, you missed the point that Putin does NOT keep promises, neither big ones to his wife nor little promises to NOT invade Ukraine. Putin glibly repudiates both kinds of promises.

Trump voters are the same as Trump. Quick to make promises, slow to keep them, prone to amnesia about the details, glibly downplaying consequences for breaking their promises.

I find it hilarious Putin wants assurances his demands will be met when the list of signed agreements, treaties he has violated is endless. I would love, if the next time this is pointed out by one of our diplomats, they end by looking into the camera and asking Putin directly, what good are assurances signed by both parties if one of those parties cannot be trusted to honor them? When one to those parties has lied again and again and violated so many of his declared pledges?
They won't but they really should. I'd also put the same question to Signym. I'm sure though Sig will respond with something about the American Indian. You know SECOND, whataboutism.

Quote:I find it perfectly predictable that Donald Trump has hailed Russian President Vladimir Putin as “savvy” and called his move on Ukraine “genius” in a new interview.

Mr Trump initially broke his silence on the Russia-Ukraine crisis on Tuesday morning through a tweet posted by his spokesperson in which he claimed that his relationship with Putin would have prevented the crisis.
Trump doubles down on ‘insane’ ‘adulation’ of Putin
The former president of the United States doubled down on his praise for Vladimir Putin and criticism of Joe Biden on Wednesday as the US and Russia appear to be experiencing a major breakdown of relations amid Russia’s aggression in Crimea and towards Ukraine.
Donald Trump issued an early-morning statement on Wednesday which crowed that the Russian president was playing his US counterpart “like a drum”, seemingly ignoring the criticism he has faced over the last day regarding his overly-complimentary view of Mr Putin.
“Putin is playing Biden like a drum. It is not a pretty thing to watch!” said the former president in one of his tweet-like statements issued by his office.

Word by Word and Between the Lines: A Close Look at Putin’s Speech
In an impassioned address about Ukraine on Monday, Vladimir V. Putin, Russia’s president, spun a narrative whose implications sprawl well beyond his stated purpose of recognizing the independence of two Ukrainian territories held by Moscow-backed separatists.
Mr. Putin’s speech was awash with hard-line Russian nationalism, angry paranoia toward the West, baseless claims of Ukrainian aggression, a sense of lost imperial pride on the verge of reclamation and, most of all, invocations of history, much of it distorted or fabricated.
While his comments might have sounded rambling to Western ears, Mr. Putin may in fact have been articulating what amounted to a calculated series of justifications for a further invasion of Ukraine aimed at the Russian public, whose support he will need to maintain it. What follows is a concise annotation of several key passages that convey Mr. Putin’s overt and implied case for war.
