this is result of the war and trying to lessen effects of sanctions, so i think it goes here. we can move if most disagree...


https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2022/03/02/statement-from-roman-abramovich?utm_source=tw&utm_medium=orgsoc&utm_campaign=none

russian billionaire, oligarch, and close friends to kremlin/putin, roman ambromovich, is selling chelsea fc, one of the biggest, richest, and most successful soccer clubs in the uk and world.

the sale will be handled by a us bank
he (roman) will not ask for any of his personal loans to the club be paid back (~$1.5b)
a charity foundation will be set up and profit from sale will go into it, with intended purpose to help victims of ukraine war, incluing urgent/immediate needs and long term rebuilding projects

don't want to jump the gun, but looks like good move at first sight.
and just read it...very cool he'll be donating billions to charity for Ukraine relief. wonder if Putin is pissed about that.

I think someone should offer him a lot of money to run europe. maybe everyone else will finally have a chance in CFB if he leaves. although kirby did beat him this year....might've been just a one year deal. Bama looks poised to take it all in 2022.

Ukraine does not have a right to join NATO. There is no such thing as an inalienable right of a country to join a military alliance.
So you're saying that a sovereign nation doesn't have a right to choose to join a military alliance, if that alliance will have them? 

And Russia has the moral or legal authority to override the choice of that sovereign nation via invasion?

Ukraine has no right to act like a free nation

He's definitely targeting civilians, he's been doing that pretty much since the beginning.  It's only getting worse and sadly, I think we ain't seen nothing yet.
