A 1956 agreement that allowed British boats to fish in the Barents Sea has been ripped up, in the latest sign of growing tensions between Moscow and the West.
The fishing deal was signed by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, but Russian politicians have now claimed it was never in the national interest.
...
Russia's parliamentary speaker Vyacheslav Volodin said: "The British need to study some proverbs - 'Russians harness the horse slowly, but ride it fast'."
He told politicians that "the unscrupulous British" had eaten Russian fish for 68 years - declaring: "Now let them lose weight, get smarter."
you know westoids get flooded way worse than russia right
their most populous area is literally 10 ft above sea level, for the entire country
Also like, Britain is islands and Russia is the largest country in the world. Who do you think is better equipped to handle rising sea levels? I know which has a LOOOOOT more inland.
Russia faces more flooding than the UK because of thawing snow and ice you dummy.
You don't even know the country you're trying to defend. Learn geography moron
Okay? St Petersburg has an issue with flooding. I don't know what you're trying to convince me of lmfao it's just the truth.
It is also the truth that Vladivostok got hit by a freak ice storm and their port freezes about 4 months out of the year.
Russia has always had struggles with ports. Climate change won't save them and will actively harm them like everyone else. Climate change also is not flat warming, that's what stupid people believe.
Why are you so insecure about those facts??
and Europe has a much bigger problem with flooding. Lemme just recap the tantrum:
Yes, but some areas get hurt worse by climate change. Yes, it's not flat warming all at once. However both of these things fuck Europe over more than Russia. The AMOC gulf stream keeps Europe warm, not Russia. The entire Mediterranean is also going to be hurt particularly bad by droughts and wildfires. So that's a ton more refugees, not only from outside Europe but even from Southern Europe.
These problems simply do not exist for Russia, and its population density is far lower, and it will gain continents' more arable/habitable land as the climate warms, AND it will also receive more rainfall. It is not even close to a contest to say that Russia benefits more from climate change than any other nation on earth. If you don't think so, then post even one climate-induced problem that's unique to Russia (you can't)
that's absolutely not what happened lmfao
go defend russia with your body sis
I literally don't care about Russia. Also get your tenses right, none of this shit happened yet. But 50 different climate models predict it to
Are you actually removed?
This is what happened
jokes about Russian ports
you begin flailing your arms, shidding, crying and cumming about Russia
also simp fuckin harder.
So let's break it down. First of all Russia has been saying for a decade that they'll use climate change to their advantage, this is called PROPAGANDA. Because it just isn't true or possible.
Let's check.
Permafrost releasing Anthrax and causing infrastructure to literally fall apart? What do you do when the ground melts below you??

On top of that Russia is heating 2.5 times faster than the rest of the world. So much so that entire villages are lost to flooding in Siberia. Russia also will only face more and more wildfires as temperatures increase and the conifer trees will be forced to retreat north.
You mentioned them gaining more land to farm, untrue. Russia's breadbasket is the case because of the soil. The soil they'd get from thawing will actually reduce the amount of useable land. Why? Because the soil in the north is acidic as fuck and not great for crops especially the ones Russia tends to grow.
Excluding all of that. Climate change will increase the amount of fighting in the world which Russia kind of fuckin sucks at. Famines will happen, droughts will happen, heatwaves will happen, insects will swarm and flooding will increase (snow/ice melt doesn't matter about the elevation like you stupidly and oh so ignorantly suggested)
So basically you just don't know what you're talking about and trying to push old Russian propaganda that they'll use climate change to their benefit. Literally the lessening dependency on oil is leaving Russia in a bind right now and shit barely began.
Go be stupid somewhere else now.
not reading this sorry
Cause you know you're wrong as fuck now go be stupid somewhere else
