Putin And Shoigu

Worth studying Putin’s in particular body language in the above briefing from Shoigu.
In particular his hands rarely leave the table and his leg shakes.
Wishful thinking on our part?
Illness?
Nervous tension?

[Khandro]

The most potentially powerful person in the world at this moment is Putin's food-taster.

I still won't click that link, but do wonder why the Kremlin would be publishing photos of Putin looking so obviously ill when propaganda should dictate it does the exact opposite ...

Putin has nervous tension because the other man has an annoying demeanour of slow droning talking. Perhaps he is frightened of Putin.

You don’t need to click on the original link, which is just a stunningly dull -3 minute video.
The screen capture at 08.41 shows it all.

12 minute

[Khandro]

Putin looks as if his clutching of the corner of the table is an attempt to prevent himself from siding under it. Could he have been novichoked, let us prey so, he looks like sh1 T

[Khandro]

"These were two depleted politicians, seemingly going through the visual motions for a Kremlin film crew that wasn’t really trying either. Putin and Shoigu looked a bit like the elderly wise guys in Scorsese’s movie, The Irishman: hunkered in a place they would leave if they could, muttering the lines they knew had to be said out loud. It wasn’t clear if they were trying to reassure the audience or merely themselves.

Neither man looked well or at ease in his skin. Throughout the 12-minute exchange with Shoigu, Putin tapped his feet awkwardly while his right hand gripped onto the edge of the table vice-like, as if desperate to steady himself: here was the Kremlin muzhik [it apparently means 'tough guy', ironically] for once displayed in what seemed to be abject discomfort."

May be they've managed to get a little poison in him:)

Ich - that picture reminds me of the Bond film where the main bad guy is sitting at one end of a long table ; and James Bond at the other end .

Under the table at the baddie end is a gun type device which fires a device through a tube to the opposite end of the table

[ichkeria]

What about this one then (!)

^^^^ You could get 15 years for showing that ichi

[sandra4444]

So that's how the poison got in, clever!!

[ichkeria]

Two more Russian generals eliminated and a third wounded in attack on a command post in Kherson

[Peter Pedant]

i really dont know how you do this ich

and how do they do this? presumably men on the inside are giving away co-ordinates?

oh and by the way - Russia is pay £500 for coordinates of ukrainian batteries, and someone sent in the co-ords of Kramatorsk railway station

[ichkeria]

Twitter pp
And it’s not confirmed in fairness
And trying to watch footie too …

[Khandro]

PP //..someone sent in the co-ords of Kramatorsk railway station//

The co-ordinates of a railway station are hardly military secrets Peter,
& definitely not worth paying 500 quid for them, - perhaps the Russians don't have a map. :0)

[ichkeria]

I think that was a joke by pp :-)
