'EXPECT US' - Kremlin TV Names the Country Putin Will Invade Next

[Celerity]

And they don’t stop there, suggesting Britain and the U.S. would be targeted in a looming WWIII.

While some in the West are pondering what kind of a concessions would allow Russian autocrat Vladimir Putin “to save face” in Ukraine, leading Russian lawmakers and top propagandists are advocating smashing the West, which they say is Russia’s ultimate target. On the state TV show 60 Minutes, host Olga Skabeeva announced: “I have some unpleasant news... Even though we are methodically destroying the weapons that are being delivered [to Ukraine], but the quantities in which the United States are sending them force us to come up with some global conclusions. Perhaps it’s time to acknowledge that maybe Russia’s special operation in Ukraine has come to an end, in a sense that a real war had started: WWIII. We’re forced to conduct the demilitarization not only of Ukraine, but of the entire NATO alliance.”

Vladimir Avatkov, from the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said: “You mentioned WWIII and the way Americans and Poles are acting on the territory of Ukraine—indeed, we need to remember the words of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, who said that anyone who tries to interfere in the special military operation will pay a heavy price.” Skabeeva interrupted: “We never forget about these words of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, but a great number of people are already standing in line, trying to interfere in Russia’s special operation on the territory of Ukraine. Turns out, we have to act—but we’re yet to figure out how we can act without conducting a nuclear strike.”

Russian parliament member Oleg Matveychev weighed in: “If Poland starts any intervention... its current borders will be worthless.” Skabeeva wasn’t satisfied: “I wasn’t talking just about Poland, but mainly about Great Britain and the United States... they’re all lined up.” Avatkov chimed in: “No need to rush, there is a line. Everything in its time!”

The first in line is apparently Poland, with Secretary of the Russian Security Council Nikolai Patrushev baselessly claiming on Tuesday that Poland is moving to seize territories in western Ukraine and accusing numerous unnamed countries of “actively working to dismember Ukraine.” Meanwhile, on Russian state TV hosts and pundits routinely refer to Ukraine as “the territory formerly known as Ukraine” and matter-of-factly discuss how many millions of Ukrainians might have to die for Russia to complete its so-called “denazification.” In his recent interview, Russian State Duma Deputy Defense Committee Chairman Vladimir Shamanov, former Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Airborne Troops admitted that Russia “was built through territorial enlargement” and named Poland as one of Russia’s main adversaries.

1. "We're forced to conduct the demilitarization not only of Ukraine, but of the entire NATO alliance."

Ha! Good Luck. You couldn't even overrun a country on your border. Delusions of grandeur.

[Justice matters.]

6. Russian 'terrorist' state teevee is the near cousin of fux snooze. nt

2. I have no reason to let the onslaught of horrific information get to me. I'm not a victim of

our current onslaught of mass shootings and nor am I in the Ukrainian war zone fighting for my very existence. I have to remember that every morning when the news craters down on us all.

Feeling helpless is the worst, though.

I would note that in response to the Ukraine situation, those who think the answer to Putin's horror is for him to be taken out or to leave the stage through a coup or natural death, though, might take these messages to heart. There are those waiting to take up his mantle.

3. Poland is a NATO member

Invade them and you’re asking for a world of trouble.

[Bucky]

5. It was meant to be a scary threat, but invading Poland is so outside Putin's capabilities...

it makes their threat of introducing nukes into the Ukraine theater just that much less plausible. Boy who cried wolf syndrome

[Gore1FL]

4. The bloodies bully awash in his own defeat is now screaming "you're next" to bigger adversaries.

If it were not for the potential death involved, it would be laughable due to the sheer absurdity of it all. I can only assume they'd use T-38 tanks...

[Bucky]

8. ...

T-38s and Maxim machine guns

[rso]

7. Poland

How foolish of them to make such statements, it only hardens NATO's resolve and unifies Western Europe's will to help Ukraine.

9. Why are we still

dicking around with this rogue nation? Sanction and surround them so a gnats fart can't get in or out of their shithole country. Strangle it till they no longer exist or they decide to get rid of that asshole.

10. RA has 7:1 advantage in Donbas and can't push out smaller UA forces in less than a month!! RA sucks

[The Magistrate]

11. Always Nice To Start The Day With A Laugh, Ma'am

Even the people saying these 'threats' do not believe them.

I doubt this is aimed at foreign audiences. It is part of keeping the home front mesmerized, feeding fantasies of overwhelming power on which the regime rests its legitimacy.

[Baked Potato]

12. Lol, Russia can't even pull off a short bridge crossing. Nt

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

13. Must be some potent vodka these guys are drinking

[Samrob]

14. We can. Is it negligence to not blow Russia the hell up now? nt

[denbot]

16. That would be genocide, plain and simple.

Putin's cadre know all they have left is keeping as many of the plates spinning as possible while looking for an escape.

[Blaukraut]

15. After the last few weeks, the phrase "You and what army?" comes to mind n/t

[Raine]

17. Lol yeah right, in his dreams! 😂 nt
