Sanctions have reduced elements of the Russian economy back to the literal Stone Age. It is making more sense for Russians to barter goods and...
“Wounded” is difficult to quantify accurately. Unlike dead or even missing, it isn’t a binary statistic. Wounded can mean anything from...
If that’s what he has in mind, I support it, of course.
