Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

Add to the above list if you can, thank you.

Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins

Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.

Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)

Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.

Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict and, unlike most western analysts, has some degree of understanding on how war works. He is a reactionary, however.

On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.

Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

Telegram Channels

Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.

    EU state skirts gas-for-ruble requirements RT

    Finland has continued importing Russian LNG after being cut off by Moscow from its natural gas supply over its refusal to pay in rubles, Finnish Gasum spokeswoman Olga Vaisanen said on Wednesday.

    She said that the company has two different contracts to receive Russian gas. One of them entails pipeline supplies through the Imatra entry point and the other is for liquefied natural gas (LNG) transported by tankers.

    “Pipeline gas supplies have stopped. The purchase of liquefied natural gas is not subject to sanctions or ruble requirements,” Vaisanen said.

        Washington is putting a lot of pressure on them, but this is the best the state department can get them to do.

          Love how NATO members and wannabe members have essentially become US tributary States.
