After months of fighting between Russia and Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin has signed a treaty annexing multiple regions of Ukraine.
RELATED: Russia preps to annex Ukraine
Putin claimed the illegal annexations were "the will of millions of people" to huge applause during a signing ceremony in the Kremlin's St. George's Hall despite widespread reports of voter coercion and people being pressured at gunpoint.
The illegal occupation could potentially raise the stakes of Russia's seven-month-old war in Ukraine because Putin vowed to defend the annexed territories with "all available means," a veiled reference to his insistence he would be prepared to use nuclear weapons if Russia's territory is threatened.

Everyone please remember this day , and remember to live life at its fullest. Propaganda has taken over the feeble minded all over the world. We can only pray for what comes next. Hold your loved ones close because we as humans tend to repeat history and never learn from it
Yes, our loved ones, and the Jan 6 committee 😉

If Nassim Taleb’s theory about black swans is correct, at any moment we have a black swan in Moscow, in days we will see it.
Very good observation, Guillermo. Extremely rare yet extremely significant events DO occur! We are at the edge of a potentially crucial change.
@Skwalka Nordstream was the event.
@Fred Garvin One thing about black swans is you can’t anticipate them, they are uncorrelated, and any number can happen close to each other in time and space.
@Skwalka Fair enough. Nordstream was _one of_ the events.
Remember all year when the media said the Ukraine was winning?
Hummmmm they pushed back Russia you dope lol
They are
Remember the part where Russians were at Kyiv and now they’re squabbling over the edges? Because someone shouting “I win” does not mean that the game is over.
@Alienlover859 If it’s just “squabbling over the edges” the United States should just let Putin have it.
The cope is strong in these comments. Hahaha
Who’s zelensky, a punk. God bless president Vladimir Putin and Russia.
Who were the four gentlemen shaking hands with Putin?
They were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
