Russians outsource most "tech" stuff. Because they don't have the appropriate human infrastructure for it. I can post a thread on that, but it boils down to any big tech industry cannot be effectively run by state mafia - only the "simple" stuff is run by the main oligarchs.This is super late, but such a fun story.
The electric car chargers along one of the most important freeways in Russia are all down Monday after the Ukrainian company tasked with building the main components in the chargers used backdoor access to hack them, shut them down, and program anti-Putin/pro-Ukrainian messages to scroll past on their screens.
Russian Company Outsourced The Main Components In EV Chargers To A Ukrainian Company, Hilarity Ensues

So basically where everyone was at before Russia invaded.

Moscow and Kyiv see signs of compromise on Ukraine’s security status – Metro US
LONDON (Reuters) -Russia said on Wednesday that a neutral status for Ukraine with its own limited army, similar to Austria’s, was being considered as a compromise in peace talks with Kyiv, while Ukraine spoke of outside powers guaranteeing its security. Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, in what...

This is why we don't export FLIR stuff to certain countries....
Hope he had sunflowers in his pockets...
Reparations to Ukraine would have to be on the table. At an absolute minimum, seized Russian assets would be subject to a finding by the World Court.
Weird, that one of those is a "Dem" political action group calling them out here.
Are there any Republican political action groups doing the same? Or are they all "radio silent" on the issue?
I'd actually prefer more politicians dressing in casual attire, as opposed to the full on business suits all the time.
Except Ted Cruz's oversized gut in a tee-shirt. No one wants to see that.... and I'm sure there are more examples. Seeing Nancy Pelosi in a crop-top might help me with dieting for a few days...

Let’s assume there’s some sort of compromise that allows Putin to save face and preserves Ukraine as a truly independent nation.
How quickly does Russia get to rejoin the world? I’m thinking they are a pariah state for some time. At least as long as Putin is alive.
Thoughts?

I think it will be mutual. We can’t forgive war crimes and he can’t let his people find out the truth.
The Ukrainians said this will end up being a movie where Zelenskyy wins an Oscar for playing himself.

Haha. They will be museum pieces by the end of the year since the dumb motherhumpers won’t be able to get spare parts or microchips for them.

I will volunteer to house her indefinitely until the conflict ends.
Not if it isn't NATO coordination.
A coalition, just like Iraq. Which are not operating in Russia, anywhere.
This is a cool article on how the CIA helped train the Ukrainians on advanced battle field sniper tactics.

Exclusive: Secret CIA training program in Ukraine helped Kyiv prepare for Russian invasion
As the battle lines hardened in the Donbas following Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014, a small, select group of veteran CIA paramilitaries made their first secret trips to the frontlines to meet with Ukrainian counterparts there, according to former U.S. officials.
Word here in DC is that senior senate D staffers are getting pissed at white house east wing 20-somethings on a whole bunch of fronts, ranging from ukraine to yesterday's withdrawal of the fed nominee. This is going to create real pressure.
When this ends, we'll need a Marshall Plan to send over thousands of construction crews to rebuild roads, bridges and buildings.
Using the money taken from Russian and its oligarchs. Sell the yachts; don't care if we get $0.10 on the dollar, but sell them to legitimate businessmen with zero ties to Russian money or mafia money.
I didn't see how they countered the Russian laser defense-but interesting read.This is a cool article on how the CIA helped train the Ukrainians on advanced battle field sniper tactics.

Partnering with Russia on anything, is working with war criminals
Western businesses need to get out, and stay out.
US should make a formal list of ALL keeping ties with this criminal enterprise, so that Americans know and can "vote with their pocketbooks".
Not in that article, but another states there are "scopes able of digital signal filtration which ensure protection of the eye of a sniper against the laser beams targeting it".
Терористи осліпили нашого снайпера, наші помстились. ВІДЕО
Російські терористи осліпили українського снайпера з допомогою лазерного комплексу. У відповідь наші снайпери вполювали одного з терористів
This is essentially the business of my best friend, who is a very senior economist/ex-cia and has done this all over the crappiest spots in the world for the last 25 years. He was getting ready to retire, but noted the other day that there will simply be too much money to be made under US govt contracts not to keep working.
BTW, you'll be lucky to get that .10 on the dollar, because the oligarchs will still have some substantial resources, will likely want them back, and will likely "know some people" who might dissuade potential buyers.
