Down the Rabbit Hole of Late-Stage Putinism

On February 23, Nikolai Zodchii was detained by police in Khabarovsk for appearing in public with these images of Vladimir Putin, which had originally appeared in broadcasts on state-run Channel One. Thanks to the indomitable VB for the snapshot and the heads-up, and for his personal fortitude in dismal circumstances. ||| TRR When contacted by the media, the Kommunalnik health resort, located in…

Russian Federal Subject Flag Wars: Round 1

This tournament will focus on the flags of Russia’s 83 federal subjects, which includes 21 republics, 9 krais, 46 oblasts, 2 federal cities, 1 autonomous oblast, and 4 autonomous okrugs. It will not include the flags of the land stolen from Ukraine.

The tournament will be followed by the Regional Flag Wars, a huge competition featuring the flags of regions/administrative divisions, with only one flag per country. Over the past year, I’ve released numerous polls to decide which regional flag will be included for each country. Russia is the final country on the list, and it is receiving its own tournament due to having so many administrative divisions. I hope everyone enjoys this tournament and is looking forward to the Regional Flag Wars! The Russian Federal Subject Flag Wars will begin this week.

1. Tver Oblast vs. Amur Oblast vs. Jewish Autonomous Oblast vs. Kamchatka Krai vs. Karelia

More than 223,000 out of 1,300,000 Ukrainians who were forcibly deported to Russia since February 24, 2022, are children. More than 2,000 of them are orphans and children deprived of parental care from Luhansk and Donetsk regions who ended up in Moscow, Leningrad, Omsk and Vladimir regions of Russia. Some of them are swiftly prepared for adoption by Russian families. 540 orphans from Donetsk region, including Mariupol and Volnovakha kids, are now encamped in the Rostov region of Russia.

2007 Siberian orange snow

The Siberian orange snow was an anomalous phenomenon that occurred in early February 2007. Beginning on 31 January 2007, an orange-tinted snow fell across an area of 1,500 square kilometres (580 sq mi) in Omsk Oblast, Siberian Federal District, Russia, approximately 2,300 km (1,400 mi) from Moscow, as well as into the neighboring Tomsk and Tyumen Oblasts. It was unclear what caused the orange snow. Speculation ranged from pollutants to a storm in neighboring Kazakhstan.

The orange snow was malodorous, oily to the touch, and reported to contain four times the normal level of iron. Though mostly orange, some of the snow was red or yellow. It affected an area with about 27,000 residents. It was originally speculated that it was caused by industrial pollution, a rocket launch or even a nuclear accident. It was later determined that the snow was non-toxic; however, people in the region were advised not to use the snow or allow animals to feed upon it.

February 16–17, 2001

Vladimir Putin chaired a meeting on improving the housing and utilities sector in Tomsk. He instructed the Government to prepare and submit a modernisation programme for the sector by April.

Tomsk resident Maria Korenkova invited Vladimir Putin to have a cup of tea and homemade pie.

The President decided to stop by a store in Tomsk. The first store on his way was the Yolochka General Store, where he talked with store clerks, asked about prices and bought some local brisket.

Vladimir Putin also went to see one of the main landmarks in Tomsk, the Siberian Botanical Garden, which has a unique collection of plants from around the world and is a popular site for wedding photographs. The President talked with newlyweds Maxim and Maya Vedyashkin.

The President continued his trip with a train ride to Omsk, chairing another meeting on infrastructure along the way. The meeting on housing and utilities was followed by a discussion on tariffs and transport infrastructure development. The train ride to Omsk took 12 hours.

Kalachinsk was the first stop in the Omsk Region. The presidential train arrived in Omsk at about 8 am, Moscow time.

Local media reported that most of the dead were older people unable to leave their homes. According to local authorities, many of the deaths occurred on Sunday in the village of Yuldus, in Kurgan province on the border between the Urals and Siberia.

Regional emergency service officials said the death toll could increase. A state of emergency was introduced in Kurgan province, where more than 5,000 buildings have burned down. Fires have also engulfed thousands of hectares in Sverdlovsk province, and areas of Siberia’s Omsk and Tyumen provinces.

During a visit to Kurgan province on Monday, Russia’s emergency situations minister, Aleksandr Kurenkov, said settlements were no longer at risk from the blazes, though local media reported on Tuesday that fires still burned there, as well as in Sverdlovsk and Tyumen.

The EU’s Copernicus atmosphere monitoring service (Cams) said its data showed “active fires burning in a band stretching from Russia’s Chelyabinsk region across Omsk and Novosibirsk regions to Primorye in the far east, affecting also Kazakhstan and Mongolia.”

In recent years, Russia has experienced especially widespread forest fires, which experts have blamed on unusually dry summers and high temperatures. The link between the climate crisis and wildfires is complex, but a Carbon Brief analysis quotes Dr Cristina Santin, a wildfires researcher from Swansea University, as saying increased temperatures “can increase the risk of severe fires by causing vegetation to dry out”.

The experts also cited a 2007 decision to disband a federal aviation network that spotted and fought fires. Its assets were turned over to regional authorities, leading to the force’s rapid decline and attracting much criticism. While the government later reestablished the agency, its resources remained limited, hampering its ability to monitor the massive forests of Siberia and the far east.

In Russia, mobilization continues, which they did not announce about the termination. The second wave is coming

from Mail.ru

In particular, I quote: "On Thursday, January 12, in Omsk, on the territory of the armored engineering institute, a solemn dispatch of those mobilized to the zone of a special military operation took place"

In the Omsk Region, for the second time in January, mobilized people were sent to the SMO zone (Special military operation).

from 360tv.ru

But what does the government say officially? Peskov answered the question about the continuation of partial mobilization.

There are no reasons for a new wave of partial mobilization. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov urged everyone not to be guided by rumors about mobilization, but to follow the official statements of the authorities.

Lies, outright lies, cynicism and double standards have blossomed in Russia!
