What, to when the Russians (from the 53rd Anti-aircraft Missile Brigade) shot down an airliner killing hundreds of completely innocent people?
I guess there is no such thing as the black arms market, US arms sent to Ukraine have already been sold to other Nations. I guess if one of those Nations use it to bring down a plane one would presume that the US was behind it, correct. 🤭
I am sure to some, details don’t matter and only want to believe what their biased narrow minded view of history.
I mean sure if someone taunts a dog, pushes it into a corner and then then dog lashes out and then the person doing the taunting claims it does not matter, what matters is that the dog lashed out and bite me. The dog is bad, nothing else matters, put the dog down. Believe what I say. 🤭

The whambulance sirens sound aloud to the deaf.
Person 1: Whaaa that is my ball give it back.
Person 2: What makes you believe it’s your ball.
Person 1: Everyone help me please to get my ball back.
Person 2: Didn’t the Teacher say this ball is to be shared which belongs to the school.
Person 1: No, it’s mine now give it back.
Person 2: Well it seems you are the one not being fair Person 1.
Person 1: No, it’s my ball and I don’t want to share.
Person 2: But the Teacher said to share the ball and it belongs to the school not you.
Person 1: No, it belongs to me.
Person 2: Well if the Teacher is misinformed then prove that the ball is yours.
Person 1: I don’t have to prove anything the ball is mine regardless of what the Teacher says.
This non-stop bickering for 3 years will continue and go nowhere. I don’t mean to digress but this is just shallow at the cost of many innocent lives on both sides while the war mongers profit.
Remind me which country has been at war the most for the better part of its existence. Oh I forgot it’s “peacekeeping” 🤭
Is Apple a private company or a department of a government, just want to clarify things.
Nothing black arms about it, the Buk wasn’t given or sold to anyone, it was part of the Russian Army, specifically the 53rd Anti-aircraft Missile Brigade. Hundreds of innocent people murdered, yet you’re trying to defend the perpetrators: Russia. So sad 🤔

Russian state media is owned by the West since the 90s and yes it is very much anti-Russian. It does nothing but promoting Western narratives by using psycho-Trotskism where "peace talks" is a code words for Russia's capitulation.
Russia has the experience necessary to successfully "walk on the razor's edge" but I would not recommend it to an amateur.
Still nothing to say about the hundreds of innocent civilians on MH17 murdered by Russia 🙄🤔
Back in late 2000's when I was a university student, our constitution set the presidential term at 4 years, and the same person could not occupy the seat for more than 2 terms. Scroll forward to today, the term is now 6 years and Putin is on his 5th term. So please, do tell us more about those elections that you've mentioned.
It is important to understand that a 4 year presidential term(not to mention a midterm after only 2 years) has nothing to do with the "democracy" and has everything to do with a non-structural "governance" of any country from above the state level.
Lets say I want to "govern" USA from "above the state level" in a non-structural way, I would "force them" to set their presidential term to only 4 years under the guise of the "democracy"(people are sure to swallow this without questioning). This will give me the leverage to assess any president after only 2 years at midterm and if US president is not doing what I want him to do I will take steps necessary to remove him from the office. A 4 year term is hardly enough to make any significant changes and it mostly serves a purpose to enforce a colonial status of the USA or any other country.
As always the real management is the management that you are unable to see.
He doesn’t want to answer questions, just evading facts, facts that are proven to be right by osint for instance and many others.
It’s a fact Russia invaded Ukraine, it’s a fact Malaysia air MH17 got shot down by Russia, it’s a fact Putin is a dictator, it’s a fact hamas started this war by killing 1000 people in a terrorist attack.
It’s a fact Trump is a petulant child, a con man, won’t pay his contractors multiple times, is a bad business man , 1+1=2, and so on, and so on.

History is cyclical. In the 20th century Russians fought and defeated evil, now Russians are fighting evil same way today. Btw, EU countries and the USA also sponsor evil, as was the case with Hitler in the 20th century, then there will be another political turn to suit the agenda like old times
Ukraine had its chance for independence in 2014, then for peace talks in 2015 and in 2022, they rejected them all. No one stopped them from implementing "Minsk 2". They chose war, they got it. That's the only fact. Everything else is hypocrisy from citizens of countries that used nuclear weapons in Japan, agent orange in Vietnam, invaded Yugoslavia and killed a million Iraqis by simply showing a test tube of washing powder. such people have no moral right to open their mouths, their words are worth nothing.
Again someone ignoring a fact.
Ukraine is a sovereign country, Russia invaded it.
There’s no but….
This is all just as meaningless as the vial with a fake white powder in Colin Powell's hands unless US is actually willing to have a direct war with Russia.
Apple has reportedly shut down access to the Apple Developer Enterprise Program (ADEP) for Russian developers. Russian IT sources told RBC that developers lost access to the platform on February 12.
The shutdown means Russian developers can no longer use ADEP to create and distribute custom iOS apps for internal use without going through the App Store. A software company in St. Petersburg confirmed to the media outlet that all program data had been erased, making ADEP unusable.
Prior to the cut-off, Apple apparently warned companies using Enterprise certificates that they would stop working by mid-February. The certificates allow developers to sign and distribute apps.
ADEP was widely used for app testing in Russia without publishing to the App Store, but major corporations and developer companies in the country also relied on the platform for internal business apps, corporate chatbots, CRM systems, and logistics tools.
Despite Apple suspending product sales and limiting certain services like Apple Pay in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the App Store continues to operate within the country. However, Apple has complied with local regulations by removing certain applications, such as VPN services and specific news apps, after requests from Russian authorities.

Of course a good step
Human rights & International Law (UN) should be strengthened against any offender!
Thank you
Of course it invaded. There is cause and effect. Ukraine wanted Nazism, it got it along with the war. And if you want to condemn Russia, start with your own country, where it invaded and which countries
These are facts. According to your rhetoric, you are from a NATO country, and NATO has already killed innocent people en masse and invaded other countries. Are you going to answer for this?
Your narratives are clearly British and MI6 is providing a constant convoy for the "sovereign" Ukrainian president. Btw the word on the street is that the British instructors also trained Hamas for the 7 October operation and the way it was conducted it has an unmistakably British signature. It seems that the British Empire still claims the ownership of the land in the Middle East.
For a no bluff historical prospective for those who really want to understand what has been going on in the region under consideration you are welcome to check the following speech from 19 Feb 2025 at EU Parliament:
It matters not how hotly we try to bring our truth forward or silent the opponent when pretty much all of us on this forum, no matter the country of origin recently where wearing masks when the all-knowing mass media and the free democratic voices told us to do (or various forces pushed us to do so). We all did: those who've seen through the lies already knowing the history lessons from before as well as those who simply wanted to play safe, to live the best life they could, to continue providing for the families and loved ones.
There is a lot of bias towards Russia and it's "unprovoked" invasion of Ukraine on these forums, which is understandable, but what in itself is nothing more as a representation of current "firmware version" of those who decide to voice such "reasoning" far and wide. I put reasoning in brackets, since it is mostly based in emotion, not reason.
I wish that all of us here, the forum members, rather unite around tech that we love to use (Apple devices in this case) and in times when we share our views on historical and political events - back it up with concrete evidence.
Please refrain from all the "Russia bad" comments around the web for your own good... since one day - you might realise that a lot of those words in fact have hardly any ground to them if at all and your emotions or even aggression or hatred was directed to those who do not deserve it whatsoever.
