Sometimes, Putin's state-sanctioned war cheerleaders don't do him any favours

Or do they?

Вот и у Польши появилась своя Белгородская область. А как вы хотели?

Translated from Russian by Google

So Poland got its own Belgorod region. And how did you want?

For those who don't know, Margarita Simonyan is editor-in-chief of RT (Russia Toady, sorry, Today) and state-controlled media group Rossiya Segodnya.

She can regularly be seen ranting on Russian TV, in ways that might one day earn her a slot on Fox News if Tucker Carlson ever tires of his schtick, courtesy of Julia Lewis's vigilance on Lewis's twitter feed: https://twitter.com/JuliaDavisNews (and if anyone can take a look at Davis's Twitter feed and not come to the conclusion that Russia is the ultimate baddie in this clusterfuck, they're beyond reaching or bothering with).

Russia's official response about today's events in Poland:

1. What is the signifigance of her Tweet?

I don't understand the reference, can you explain?

[Emrys]

2. She's a rabid - and I do mean rabid - warmonger and apologist for Russian Federation aggression,

and she's more than implying that Poland got what it deserves or was asking for.

3. I get who she is

I don't understand:

"So Poland got its own Belgorod region. And how did you want?"

or how that suggests:

"implying that Poland got what it deserves or was asking for"

4. Belgorod is a border oblast to Ukraine that has been used to launch many strikes on Ukraine,

and is the one of the few areas of uncontested Russian territory which has been hit by attacks that Russia attributes to Ukraine, but for which Ukraine has not accepted formal responsibility.
