Despite Centuries of Trying, Russia Still Can’t Genocide Buryatia

, ,

Russia has spent hundreds of years trying to erase Buryatia — through conquest, forced assimilation, destruction of religious institutions, targeted executions of its intellectual class, and, more recently, the quiet suffocation of its cultural production. Yet despite this long, deliberate campaign of erasure, Buryatia persists. And nowhere is this struggle clearer than in the repeated attempts to suppress Buryat cinema. For the Buryat people —

Russia unleashed one of its heaviest air assaults in weeks overnight on Sept. 20, firing more than 600 missiles and drones across Ukraine — even as Kyiv’s strikes on Russian oil infrastructure push the Kremlin’s war economy toward crisis. Ukraine’s Air Force said Moscow launched 579 drones, eight ballistic missiles, and 32 cruise missiles during the assault. Air defenses intercepted 552 drones, two ballistic missiles, and 29 cruise missiles, limiting the destruction but not preventing tragedy.

Ukraine Revives the Oil War Strategy That Helped Crush Nazi Germany

,

In World War II, the Allies concluded that destroying Nazi Germany’s oil industry would cripple Hitler’s armies faster than any battlefield victory. By mid-1944, relentless bombing of synthetic-fuel plants cut production by 90%, grounding the Luftwaffe and leaving armored divisions stranded months before Germany’s collapse. Ukraine has now adopted this same logic.

Russia’s failed methods to keep Germany and Baltics out of NATO now used on Ukraine

, , ,

Moscow’s opposition to the nations on its acquisition list finding refuge in NATO has never been new or creative. It is a well-worn strategy, dating back to the earliest days of the Cold War, and repeated each time a European democracy has sought to guarantee its security inside the Western alliance.

Russia has never NOT Broken A Treaty

For Moscow, treaties mean nothing. They are pauses in conflict, meant to buy time, weaken the other side, while preparing for the next stage of war. Over the past century, the Soviet Union and modern Russia have signed dozens of agreements—all worthless, mostly functioning as mere means to disarm intended victims. The record shows a consistent pattern: agreements are tools of strategy, not commitments of principle.
