Two weeks ago he claimed that the spill is “smaller than what they thought”
I think he had his Chernobyl moment back when his invading forces were digging trenches in the Chernobyl exclusion zone without protection.
putin’s chernobyl moment was sinking of kursk all the way in 2000
Not something that affects many people. By Moscow standards, several tens of thousands is a few apartment buildings.
I wonder how they are now
They all went on extended vacation, Comrade. Very nice and long.
If they stayed in army, they’re probably dead by now. From fragments and bullets, not from radiation. Doses possible for them to absorb were much less than immediately harmful, but you could get out by claiming nausea (early symptom of radiation poisoning)
So they may be the few people whose lives were extended by radiation exposure
Sparkling!
Do the Russian people care much about this oil spill?
The Black Sea is their one and only domestic summer holiday destination… Used to be.
They call it The Blacker Sea now.
Some do, and there are local volunteers trying to clean up, which is very tough work. But they don’t have the proper equipment, so it’s probably not very efficient.
