These are good points. But it can still be used to pay smugglers/bypass the SWIFT hassle as only Russians can actually use the Ruble currently
Russia and China have been preparing alternatives for SWIFT sanctions for almost a decade at this point. They have an alternative called the Cross-Border Interbank Payment System (CIPS). This is a payment platform that doesn't involve SWIFT or DOLLARS at all, it uses RMB,YUAN and other BRICS nations currencies.

Holy fuck, that is what low-energy looks like.

Why is there a preteen at this thing? Did he get lost on his way to the child hair-sniffing ceremony that Biden was holding afterwards?

You sound surprised that theres a young looking blonde haired boy at a government based meeting. We all know what he's there for ;)
 
Is it just me, or does there not seem to be much in the way of tank vs. tank combat?

I'd be curious to know the real-world results of Russia's doctrine of using gun-launched ATGM's. The U.S. gave up on that concept decades ago and I'm pretty sure they did it for a good reason.
IIRC the main reason is that tanks are dual-purpose these days, where they're both armoured spearhead and infantry support. You need them to be capable of supporting infantry as well, which an ATGM-armed tank wouldn't be able to do.
 
Haven’t seen this posted yet but Reuters is reporting that Russian jets briefly violated Swedish airspace.
Yeah with Finland scrambling for a NATO membership and this the nords are going to be shitting their pants for a while

In real life, a tank is about the least desirable thing to send against another tank. Essentially it sits at the lowest point on the formula of odds of success, risk of destruction, and difficulty of being replaced. Air power is harder to kill, ATGMs are easier to replace, and so on.
 
Pick what is actually happening right now instead of le epic clever memerinos
you mean you shitposting, missing the point and MUH BLACKROCK (when companies are slowly figuring out ESG isn't that great for various reasons?), on top of society at large inevitably shifting again at some point like it always does and all the woke shit and virtue signaling will stop or more likely swap into the opposite direction?

so yes, russia will at some point be in fifa again, probably sooner than later since it doesn't even have anything to do with wokeshit and is straight up PR even more than shoving BLM shit in people's faces (which I guess you think they're still doing, because as you said that will never change, at all).

Tanks in general are designed for infantry support moreso then Tank on Tank battles, especially after the Cold War ended. I have seen exactly one clip of a tank on tank engagement in this war thus far.

IDK about the Gun Launched ATGM's, I've never seen them used in action personally.
