    Pretty. Crazy. And Latvia locking the border. No refugees from Russia allowed there.

    Is this going to be massive, or just a tiny blip.

    This is insane. I went to Rostov-on-don like 15 years ago. It was my first time out of the country, too. I had college friends from there and I stayed at their house.

    I’ve really lost touch with them many years ago. I’m hoping their families are safe. I know one of them is still in the states, I’m think one went back to Rostov. I guess I hope he is not there at the moment.

      Word is there was little/no fighting in Rostov. Wagner seems to have taken down a couple Ministry of Defense helicopters there.

        Thanks, I woke up in the morning to see that everything seems to have settled. I was expecting it to be a warzone.

    We are certain that a solution worthy of the age-old wisdom of the Russian people will be found in the near future.

    A window?
