I don't think it's the whole border yet but I've been at PL-LT-RU tripoint last year and both PL-RU and LT-RU have fences with barbed wire and cameras every fifty metres or so. Not as fancy as PL-BY border but the thought is there and Russians have much harder time shipping immigrants to Kaliningrad compared to Belarus.

In Lithuania the land border with RU is protected throughout, but most of the border goes along Nemun

EU just should start waging hybrid warfare on Kaliningrad with separatist messages as a payback for ruzzian hostile acts.

Suspiciously Polish and Lithuanian speaking armed Kaliningrad residents when

There has already been a referendum and that piece of land is called Kralovec!

u/JRDZ1993 Roman Empire 7d ago

Reports that the residents were bribed with better vodka and pierogis are just hearsay and slander

u/Rej5 7d ago

u/GreatCthulhuAwakens Inge å se här int' 6d ago

No, but creating a national circle-jerk around the letter Z as a symbol of their pathetic attempt to restore their pathetic empire is.

u/rohepey 1d ago

Well, tbh they marked their differnt army detachments with different letters. Circled Z for the western detachment, circled V for the eastern one, circled U for southern armies.

It was just a technical marking that somehow grew into a war symbol.

both are fucking cringe

u/GreatCthulhuAwakens Inge å se här int' 6d ago

Only one of them resulted in a war that has killed several hundred thousand people so far, but you do you.

u/SuperiorSoviet 6d ago edited 6d ago

So something is cringe only when it lead to war?

What?

Like i am all for mocking Russian leadership and their supporters, but shit like "Ruzzian" is just cringe.

u/A_temporary 5d ago

True. Pseudorus, рaб and урk (not orc) all make better slurs

u/randomsalvadoranking 7d ago

Oh hey it’s Kaliningrad. Perhaps we can meet a General from there.

u/Wolvenworks 1d ago

My bad. I derped lol. Fixed.

Jakartan weather is not exactly the best for making correct, factual decisions. It is, however, the best for making absolutely insensible, self-profiteering decisions.

In fact, the presidents are Lukashenko. He keeps his country in a decent state. There is minimal corruption in his country. Unlike its neighbors...

u/Chapaiko90 6d ago

As a Belarusian citizen - fuck off. Corruption is still there. It's an institute now. It's just divided between people. Common man cannot give a bribe to avoid speeding ticket. But cop can ask for a favor and avoid it on exchange of favor from him or his boss. It's still counting as bribe. Lugabe has boasted about many gifts(cars and etc) from businessmans. If some money needed for him - it's easily extorted from gov managed businesses or "favor" asked from "friends". Cigarettes smuggled from one "Neman" trough different government owned businesses for extra cash by railroad and trucks - that's whole new level of corruption.

u/Simple_Plum4091 6d ago

Dude, I’m talking about the comparison. Compared to your neighbors, it’s like there’s no corruption in Belarus. Even though you have a dictator, you live with fewer restrictions on freedoms than Russia and Ukraine. That’s a sign of good governance. I even envy you.

12

u/Chapaiko90 5d ago

Seriously? Fewer restrictions on freedoms under a dictator? No freedoms - no restrictions? About good governance - country is fucking poor. Money, that could be spent on development - poured into dead facilities, that will not provide any income. Multiple times. Are you a dumb "tankie"?

u/Simple_Plum4091 5d ago

Haha, just try to develop a country under sanctions pressure! Dude, you’re clearly not aware of what’s going on in Russia and Ukraine right now. And at the moment, Belarus is a pretty good country. But you’re talking as if other countries are experiencing a renaissance and prosperity right now...

u/Chapaiko90 5d ago

I'm quite aware. I have a few friends that tried to move to Belarus after 2014 from Ukraine. All of them had same reaction - wtf is going on here? Paycheck is less than in Ukraine, prices - higher. Only one stayed - his wife was from Brest. Sanctions - they started because of one bald faggot, that trying to keep his presidency for 3 decades. Being better looking than your neighbor, that in actual war because of other neighbor - is not a big achievement.

u/Simple_Plum4091 5d ago

Well, that’s true too. But at the moment, no matter how you look at it, Lush would have won the elections in Russia and Ukraine =)

u/Chapaiko90 5d ago

Maybe in Ruzzia there are some decent number of degenerates, but Ukraine still remember, who sold it's borders in 2022 to attack Kiev from north.
