Breaking news: Putin Receives Nobel Prize In Medicine For Ending COVID Pandemic
After serious deliberations deep inside the super-secret Nobel Prize Compound in Switzerland or wherever, the Nobel committee of medicine deciders have awarded the coveted Nobel Prize in Medicine to Russia’s President Vladimir Putin for singlehandedly ending the COVID pandemic practically overnight.
News of the swift and nearly-miraculous end to a years-long pandemic came at a serendipitous moment for members of a certain American political party.
“While Putin should receive credit for ending this pandemic, President Biden also deserves praise for ending the pandemic and fulfilling yet another campaign promise like all of the other campaign promises he totally keeps fulfilling,” said Jen Psaki to a journalist and future coworker at MSNBC, “Yes, Putin’s magical ability to end this pandemic bodes well for any democrat running for reelection this November, but that’s just a happy, happy coincidence.”
Thanks to the Russian President’s decisive blow against the COVID pandemic, Democrat-run states across the U.S. immediately began lifting draconian, life-crushing, and statistically racist mask and vaccine mandates in workplaces, restaurants, and even schools. This great news about the scientifically plausible and immediate end to the pandemic is sure to be one of President Biden’s main talking points during his first State of the Union speech.
"Russia is Not as strong as they pretend to be." Probably not, but then we are just seeing another repeat of history when invasions turn out to be more difficult than planned. There are several examples with the USA. The difference here is that Russia has the largest nuclear arsenal in the world and they can always have the last word should they choose to. As for China they won't wait very long on the sideline. They will replace every Western company that pulls out of Russia and they will buy all the gas that Europe does not want at a great discount. They will be the big winners of this war and we should understand what that means for our future.
First I doubt that there will be many flights, as Russian airlines have cancelled all international flights and their planes are being re-possessed by leasing companies. In any case best would be to remain neutral, but it will be difficult not to give in to US pressures. Maybe the government will be smart enough to negotiate a financial support package to counteract the negative effects of the sanctions?
We are about to be hit by a major energy + food crisis due to the US sanctions on Russia and people are talking about a budget surplus? Good luck with that. We better start looking who can bail us out. China, the USA, the IMF, the crypto boys?
If you are not white or from the West nobody cares about your problems, like the war in Yemen. Now back to the story of the bad Putin vs good Ukraine...
I agree 100% with you. Biden could have easily prevented this war by asking Ukraine to apply the Minsk agreements and by giving this country a neutral status like with Finland or Switzerland. However, the opportunity to destroy Russia was more appealing to him, at whatever cost to Ukraine and the rest of the world.
As for the sanctions they have the opposite effect of the intended purpose. They strengthen the regime in place instead of weakening it. You only have to look at Cuba, North Korea, Iran or Venezuela to realize this. They as you point out affect the people who are already suffering from Putin. He will not be affected by the sanctions and will continue to eat caviar every day in the Kremlin. And ironically sanctions impact us directly. We see it with the surge in the price of energy.
