Have a look how honest and safe from manipulation those so-called referenda's are xD
Everyone can grab a voting card, everyone gets one, no one is bothered to check if they are entitled. They are not even trying to act as if it is legit xD
People refused to go to the polling stations so the stations decided to come to them xD
====================
Uzbekistan officially stopped processing Russian-system MIR cards. Those were allowing to bypass the Western sanctions.
It is not only Uzbezkistan cancelling MIR cards.
====================
Here is how the voting look-alike, do not worry if you are not sure how to vote, nice lady when taking your details will send a helpful cameraman who will help you to mark the right spot and document what you picked
Quality Control at its best - Russian standard!
====================
and now some more on A weapons from one of the users from specialists forum. The answer is about possibility of attacking Poland (when it says 'us' it is for striking Poland, a EU member and NATO member) by Russians using tactical nuclear weapons.
Well, let's take a look at these Russian nuclear warheads.
As you know, A-weapons are generally divided into strategic and tactical. They are not interchangeable. If they use nuclear weapons, it is the one from the tactical pool.
Data per FAS as of February 25, 2022:
ABM/Air/Coastal Defence:
S-300/S-400 - 290 pieces x 1kt (these are small warheads to counter incoming aircraft/missiles/air objects)
53T6 Gazelle - 68 pieces x 10 kt (anti-aircraft system to defend Moscow, we detonate the warhead over Moscow preventing strategic missiles from hitting it)
SSC-1B Redut - 4 pieces x 350 kt (anti-ship weapons, for aircraft carriers and invasion fleet)
SSC-5 Onyx - 25 pieces x 10 kt (anti-ship)
Attention - it will not reach us!!!
---------------------------------------
aviation armament (T-22, Su24/34) - 500 pieces, power various - bombs, missiles
Attention - it will reach us only by plane, which means it will not reach us!!!
---------------------------------------
SS-26 Iskander-M - 70 pieces x 10-100 kt
SSC-8 9M729 Iskander-K - 20 pieces x 10-100 kt
Note - it will reach us (Iskander-M from Kaliningrad, Iskander-K maybe even from Russia, how many missiles they have left is nobody knows, it can be fought in flight. The most dangerous thing they have.
--------------------------------------
Ships - 935 pieces, different power, opl missiles, torpedoes, mines, anti-ship missiles, winged.
Note - dependent on the starting position of the fleet, rather to fight the US Navy, mainly defensive, effective today can only be Calibers, it can be fought.
A total of 1912 tactical warheads.
The conclusion is that
tactical weapons will not cause a nuclear conflagration. These weapons were subject to various restrictions, treaties and prohibitions. As a result, they are mostly defensive or old. The same is true of the carriers I didn't list (the numbers are for warheads).
The other point is not to complain that Poland is buying Patriots from bad America. You can see how it was a thoughtful purchase and how much PL miss it now. Our PAC-3MSEs have the capability to fight Iskanders, winged missiles, winged missile carriers. There's been a lot of bullshit about it, and it would be useful to have it now.
Generally
they would have a problem to attack Warsaw effectively. It might be easier with Ukraine, but it's a
limited power and limited capabilities.
You can't make the end of the world with tactical nuclear weapons. I think a well thought out retaliatory attack with radiological weapons would have more effect than these tactical crap.
How many dirty bombs placed there by terrorists reluctant to the Putin autocracy are currently stashed in Moscow is anyone's guess. And all it takes is one and the city will have to be fenced off with a fence for 50 years.
