    I've got some bad news for VVS of the RF.
    USAF has thousands of jets that were already taken out of service and can (and I guess they also will- once the pilots train to fly them) be given to Ukraine.

    Just imagine F-14 Tomcats being flown again in more than just one country (currently only Iran operates them).

    Loks like in Kaliningrad there was also referendum avout joining the Poland and Czech republic.
    87% for Poland, 99% for Czechia, so now it's part of our countries and we already have access to sea ;)

    I guess it would be not much different if they were to vote.
    The ones living in the enclave don't really feel connected to the Federation.
    Between 2011 and 2016 there was so called "small border movement agreement" between Poland and the RF, and the residents of the Oblast could travel freely to Poland.
    It was no later, than then, that they must have noticed that there are discrepancies between the official propaganda of the RF, and reality.
    And they were visiting the Warmia and Mazury region - one of Poland's poorest.

    If they were to vote in a free referendum, they would surely not wish to stay in the RF any longer.

    I can't see the pic, but AFAIK Kaliningrad will be awarded to the country on the third place in the next Eurovision contest. :D

    Actually Kaliningrad never was part of Russia anyway. The citizens there are no russians either. I think we all should respect their will to join Poland and Czech republic ;)

    That's actually right.
    I guess the voter turnout would be 103%, beating the 98% turnout from the ruZZia occupied oblasts of Ukraine by further 5%.

    Wow, it's now official. Kaliningrad joins the Czech republic (partly) and renames for "Královec" (original czech name to honour czech king Přemysl Otakar II in 1255).

    Finally we will have sea ;)

    We are ready to protect our new citizens in Královec (former Kaliningrad). Results of referendum were clear ;)
