US Foreign Policy 3.0: We're The Mets of International Diplomacy

Well, they're not wrong about a good part of the US. Strangely, the Nazi sympathizers are also the useful idiots of Russia.

I'm sure Uncle Vlad planned it that way.
 
There are white supremacists on all sides of any Eastern European political conflict. It's the side that comes with every meal.
 
If you are a person of a certain age (mine) B-52s doing overflights in Europe are the stuff of hard nights.
 
Sounds like the Ukrainian oligarchs all left today
Belarus has 32 CAS aircraft parked at an airbase near Ukraine. The country only owns 22 of that aircraft.
 
The other interesting thing I've noticed. Almost all commercial flights in and out of Kyiv have been done in pairs within minutes of each other. I have to imagine that's intentional.

Edit: Nix that. Those are just the ukraine-registered flights. There were three separate pairs in and out. Turkish and other airlines are doing singles still. Interesting nonetheless.


Also, the LAGR group of three stratotankers is back out over europe and the pair of CHIEF B-52s are both back doing the wrap around Spain.

Edit 2: I screwed up the FR24 timing. THey were from the same 24-hr training mission that landed earlier today.

I have noticed that there are two heavy flightpaths: one just south of Ukraine and one cutting through central Belarus. The only planes I see in Ukraine airspace originate in Kiev cuz they can't help it, are American drones (I have no idea why those are registered flights) , or are coming from Russia and presumably know the score.

Maybe we get 30 minutes' notice when the outbounds from Moscow start veering off from Ukraine entirely.

Are those the ones that come out of Britain and stay over the ocean the whole way? Flying gas stations?
