The Supreme Commander Sverker Göranson with sensational new data on the Russian aircraft acting against the Swedish airforce. "We feel that the Russian airforce exhibit aggressive behavior. Among other things, they fly very close in a manner that may endanger flight safety, breaking out of the normal flight formations and there are examples of when they used countermeasures (flares). It appears in summary in a way that violates against the "code of conduct" that is when government planes meet in the air. " Carl Bergqvist, defense political blogger and columnist at Expressen, took note of the new data. - As I understand it this Russian aircraft shot away countermeasures, which risked to hit Swedish aircrafts. I do not know what countermeasures referred to, but if it was flares against heat-seeking missiles, they can cause major damage to other aircraft for example if they are sucked into an engine. He believes that the data is staggering. - This is sensational and beyond all reasoning, he says. Why does the Russian plan do like this? - As I have interpreted it as the Russians have done it for the hell of it, to show who's boss in the Baltic Sea. If a Swedish pilot would have done it, he would have lost the service, says Mr Bergqvist http://www.expressen.se/nyheter/ryska-militarplan-skot-mot-svenska-flygplan/ Russian fighter aircraft SU27 - just ten meters from the Swedish Airforce surveiliance plane in international airspace.

All the Capitalists wish to do is Trade, and make MORE Money, for both sides. Oh, yes, do you want to say the USA bombed Serbia (under the forged pretext) and helped the Albanian terrorists because of wish to trade? With whom, with Serbians or Albanians? What a primitive nonsense... P.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower: "We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military–industrial complex". |

We bombed Serbia to protect The Muslims from Genocide. Yes, the propagandised false excuse that was not confirmed later, alike the WMD in Iraq. But really it was only the geopolitical interest of US and NATO to support the Albanian terrorists against Milosevic and later not to notice genocide provided by Albanian KLA in Kosovo. |

Sweden’s Modern Times Group AB is the latest company to face being pushed out of Russia as President Vladimir Putin’s media law tightens control over the country’s broadcasting and publishing industries. Modern Times isn’t alone. In April, Finnish media group Sanoma Oyj divested its stake in Vedomosti to entrepreneur Demyan Kudryavtsev. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-07-06/sweden-s-mtg-becomes-latest-target-in-russia-media-ownership-law |

We bombed Serbia to protect The Muslims from Genocide. One of the biggest problems of most Westerners - they can't go further their stereotypes that they got from the Western media. In 1999 you heard from the Western media some fakes and some exaggerated news about "genocide" against Albanians and no info about Albanian war crimes. That stamp still live in your memory, instead of searching of real facts. You think you know truth. Western propaganda is effective, unfortunately. Understand? P.S. Some off-topic about the Independent Day concert in Washington. I read about it in Internet and I thought it's fake but later I found source with video - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/11719034/Watch-Independence-Day-2015-celebrations-in-Washington-DC.html#ooid=swYnMxdjqHeZ3itzq2ekXoYElUisK-gq Time after 1 minute 30 seconds - it's very humorous to hear the chorus in Washington sang in Russian - "God, Save the Tsar!", words from the national anthem of Russian Empire. Words that not exist in the Tchaikovsky's overture. LOL. But it's the FSB propaganda, of course, I understand you. |

P.S. Some off-topic about the Independent Day concert in Washington. I read about it in Internet and I thought it's fake but later I found source with video -LOL The night concluded with a performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture by the National Symphony Orchestra. The Year 1812, festival overture in E♠major, Op. 49, popularly known as the 1812 Overture,is an overture written in 1880 by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to commemorate Russia's defense of its motherland against Napoleon's invading Grande Armée in 1812. It has also become a common accompaniment to fireworks displays. I bet this piece of Music is now forbidden in Russia because Tchaikovsky was gay:) And the French national Anthem are played as well. Yes Russia is a great nation. Putin is not. |

Igor how much are you being paid to post in this forum? Only those who support US and NATO can post for free, of course. All other persons are on paid, undoubtedly. If you can't disprove any inconvenient facts, it means it is necessary to ignore them and to pass to discussion of the personalities. Yes, it's a convenient tactics. P.S. It's a sarcasm, I explain it for those uncomprehending even such simple meanings. |

The night concluded with a performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture by the National Symphony Orchestra. The worst ignorant person - the one who doesn't understand that he is ignorant. There is no words in the original overture. |

The night concluded with a performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture by the National Symphony Orchestra. This is a version of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture with a choir singing at the beginning an old russian church chant and the end the former hymn of the Tsar. Please enjoy:) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FCbY1Rel-4 |

This is a version of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture with a choir singing at the beginning an old russian church chant and the end the former hymn of the Tsar Some people don't understand what is the word "original". This is not Tchaikovsky's original product, this is a remake of 20th century. Also, as I know, before 2015, Tchaikovsky's overture on the USA Independence Day concerts was an original, without words, especially in Russian. It's interesting, is it an inadvertent mistake or someone was the troll in the concert organizers? P.S. It's simpler to ignore you instead of explaining 2+2=4 every time. |

And whats wrong to play the 1812 Overture with russian lyrics on the USA Independence Day? Putin is not a Tsar, is he? The choral parts in 1812 Overture where originally introduced just 50-some years ago by Igor Buketoff. Igor Buketoff (29 May 1915 – 7 September 2001) was an American conductor, arranger and teacher. He had a special affinity with Russian music and with Sergei Rachmaninoff in particular. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_Buketoff |

LOL. "God Save the Tsar!" is something opposite to American independence ideas. Really, don't you understand irony? I am sorry. Putin is not a Tsar, is he? What a Putin? Can you imagine some post without Putin? No? I am sorry. |

What a Putin? Can you imagine some post without Putin? No? I am sorry.LOL. Discussing Russia in the 21C without some post about Putin? Are you serious? Ok Here is one:) Ikea Mos which is the Swedish furniture company's Russian subsidiary has entered into a cooperation agreement with the Moscow administration. Under the new agreement opens Ikea least three new department stores in Moscow and invest in the construction of roads and social infrastructure for them, reports information agency RBC. The total investment sum represents 50 billion rubles. In Russia there are currently fourteen Ikea department stores, including three in Moscow. http://se.sputniknews.com/norden/20150708/397932.html «Ðа зеркало неча пенÑть, коли рожа крива».

We bombed Serbia to protect The Muslims from Genocide. Russia has vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution that would have described the Srebrenica massacre as "genocide". Four other members of the council abstained while the remainder voted in favour. The killing of some 8,000 Muslim men and boys in 1995 by Bosnian Serb troops was the worst massacre in Europe since World War Two. The motion had angered Serbia, which rejects the term. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-33445772 Death by selfie?

Russia has vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution that would have described the Srebrenica massacre as "genocide". The Srebrenica massacre, also known as the Srebrenica genocide[7][8][9][10][11][12] (Bosnian: Genocid u Srebrenici), was the genocidal[13][14][15] killing, in July 1995, of more than 8,000[1][16][17][18][19] Bosniaks, mainly men and boys, in and around the town of Srebrenica during the Bosnian War. The killing was perpetrated by units of the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) under the command of General Ratko Mladić. The Secretary-General of the United Nations described the mass murder as the worst crime on European soil since the Second World War.[2][3] A paramilitary unit from Serbia known as the Scorpions, officially part of the Serbian Interior Ministry until 1991, participated in the massacre.[6][20] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srebrenica_massacre With a wave of his hand on Wednesday morning, Russian United Nations Ambassador Vitaly Churkin sent the U.N. Security Council back in time. He raised his hand to veto a resolution that uses the term “genocide†to describe the mass killing of 8,000 Bosnian Muslims in the town of Srebrenica 20 years ago this month. Churkin argued this would promote division in the former Yugoslavia. http://blogs.reuters.com/great-debate/2015/07/09/peacekeeping-in-time-of-war-with-genocidal-results/ |

janneseti, you constantly try to show your mistakes as something non-mistaken. It's boring. |
