Every country has protocols during time of war and one of them may be relocating their number one citizen to a safe space, so no need to suggest that he is hiding behind a bunker, it is expected. Anyway, another thing that's weird about it is that usually he's keeping a huge distance (e.g. sitting at a hilariously long table, or across a large room like in the OP photo) from even his closest subordinates, and here just chilling in close contact with a bunch of supposedly random strangers. During covid, when it was at it's peak, there was a viral picture of Putin in a Hazmat suit just to avoid the virus. That is the character of a man that doesn't take chances and clearly not from anyone hence the long tables. I also wonder the possibility and i think he would also have double water and food tasters at every meal to avoid being poisoned, all just to be cautious at a delicate time like this.

...all you have to do is to confirm the prediction that comes from the tipster before you will place a bet. I think that is more reliable than you are relying on the tipster's work.
Relying on a tipsters work alone is laziness. You may think it brings you closer to winning alone, but at same time you must know that it brings you closer to loosing as well. A tipster? sound almost like a Trickster, lol, i wouldn't trust any of them. Subscribing to a tipster shows too much intent to make money and that puts too much pressure on an individual, which can result to depression when one looses. Develop yourself, better to loose money learning, than loose money not learning.

Liverpool narrowly won against West Ham just 1-0 and it was a great achievement because West Ham is not an easy opponent or and he is a strong opponent, and the goal was thanks to Sadio Mane in the 27th minute of the first half. Actually Sadio Mane had many chances in that match, but most importantly Liverpool got 3 points, and the points are currently only 3 points adrift of Manchester City. and hope Manchester City against Manchester United will lose or draw, although unlikely but who knows.
if Liverpool had not scored that goal, it would have been a big disappointment and disaster for the team. We don't only need to give kudos to Mane for scoring the goal, but also to Trent Alexander-Arnold for setting him up for the goal nicely, i don't get the comparison of Trent Alexander-Arnold with Reece James, to me Arnold is way better and has been instrumental in the back for Liverpool this season both in the EPL & UCL.

I do not think this is sport mixing with politics, I do not see anything bad to sanction Russia, Russia invaded a peaceful country, killing innocent people. What could be more than massacre?
Don't just base your argument around Russia invading a peaceful country like they are the first country to invade another country, and in truth this is to show that Politics and political situations have an effect on sports. I'm also particularly concerned about the stigma that some of their athletes will he facing for just being Russian, i hope it doesn't drive any of them into taking their own lives.

Binance is refusing to lock account belonging to Russian customer's, what is your take on this?
Binance owes this to their Russian customers who have been loyal to them over the years. It is a personal decision for Binance management and i feel they shouldn't be forced into decision of locking accounts owned by Russians or castigated for not following the crowd. If they did, it would have affected the decision/opinions of many others including myself who aren't even russian but understand that what is happening to russians can happen to anyone.

Who cares about ebay honestly...
This news may just be another hype to be in the news especially now when bitcoins are trending for the way they have been instrumental for donations for Ukrainians who need relief. Ebay "might accept" is no where close to Ebay "has accepted" which is a better new for the community than just another mere speculation or probability. I look forward to hearing that they have accepted and not "might accept".

For Marriage, I'd say it's a bit of both for me (Character & beauty) and other things. You wouldn't just want to marry a beautiful face without character, that marriage wil never be peaceful, and you can also not just marry Character without any form of beauty, you would like for your partner to be presentable in public as well, that is beautiful, because that is first thing everyone see's before character.

Southampton 3-1 West Ham United
This is most unexpected results of today's fixtures, i never could have imagined Southampton winning Westham and by such a margin, three goals to one. Broja's goal for Southampton was world class, bigger teams may be putting in an offer for him soon if he can keep up performance, his goal sealed the win for Southampton today. Minamino for Liverpool did well today as well, a brace to his name.

I personally think some of these reactions sports is having towards some russian athletes and other personels from Russia who have really fought hard to be where they are today totally too extreme and without consideration. Some of them are just Russians by Nationality but have been in the west and other regions so much that they can identify with them. Why disregard all contributions they have made when we all know that they may not all be in support of the invasion.

Do you think sanctions alone can stop Putin?
Well, we can't say for sure... sanctions can be effective but not always certain to work. For a country as huge as Russia, with a very strong economy prior to this invasion, they only knew when they were going to attack, so there is a possibility that they may have made preparations for worst case scenarios as these sanctions. The best answer to this is that in a couple of days we will know if the sanctions are working.

I don't feel is ethical to bet in a conflict like this and I will not, but I want to discuss the topic, what does the community think about this kind of bet.
If it's a bet against political parties, a reality show or something else, that's understandable and not too inhumane, but betting on war and the outcome is almost equivalent of betting on human lives and that has gone more than a competition. For those who may see nothing wrong with it, remember that some people are really in serious situations that we don't need to joke about.

We know how the Media can sometimes not be trusted and can come under heavy manipulation and influence people's opinions on specific matters, having this at the back of my mind, i can't help but wonder if there is a possibility that Putin has been painted as completely bad to the benefit of others who are in disagreement with him.
-Is Putin's issue with the west and Ukraine a personal issue or really a Matter of National interest? -Do you think Putin's invasion was unprovoked?
(I want personal opinions and not media generated opinions)

With the Russian invasion of Ukraine, almost all sectors & big businesses in Russia have been hit with huge Sanctions against them both from the United States, the United Kingdom and other internationally related bodies. Sanctions have hit the Russian central bank, other small russian banks, big business and companies in Russia from airlines to manufacturing have been affected as well and many assets private and government owned has been frozen.
-Do you think Russia can survive, and how can they survive the harsh economic realities that they are about to experience? Are the sanctions sufficient to push Putin into a decision to stop the invasion?

After contributions have been made by the crypto community, i hope the Ukrainian government and everyone utilizing the crypto technology to contribute and show support to Ukraine remembers after this war is over how crypto made it possible for people to still move money around even in time of war where traditional banking systems have been disrupted. Also because it is crypto, it provides the advantage of anonymously contributing or supporting Ukraine.

There is horrible video evidence of Africans being mistreated and not being permitted to leave the nation at the Poland-Ukraine border; blacks are requested to walk to the back, and Ukrainian soldiers are utilizing these forms at the crossing: 100 Ukrainians, 30 foreigners, 1 African. Even in times of war, racism is still prevalent; I dislike war but will always oppose racism; I've always been neutral on the Russia-Ukraine conflict until now; the lives of black people do not matter to the Ukrainians..
My guy wey dey Ukraine been dun clear me say for that way, black nor dey carry do as them nor dey too reason blacks and you fit just enter problem for small thing (like black boy dey follow one of their Ukrainian girls) i been know say dem dey run am normally but i nor expect dem to still dey do am and pick preference at a time like this, e nor make any sense at all. When you dun see all these kind videos, person go ask e sef say shey if our country good these people go still dey travel out?? cos the thing cun be like you comot your country where you be king cun go where you be slave... I just hope they will be safe.

I protested the introduction of Kepa. Kepa once or twice has been good in catching pk, but pk is more of a thing of luck. Meanwhile, Mendy during the just concluded AFCON saved Pk and he should have been given some benefits of doubt. I really knew that Kepa will be disastrous. It is disappointing that Kepa could not catch 1 out of 11 pk taken and to crown it all, he send his own pk to the fans.pw
Come on man, there's no need to cast blames to the keeper, and we can't know better about the players IMO than the coaches and technical staffs that trains them. If the coach had seen kepa to be a good choice, then i think he was right. There were a lot of missed opportunities, there was this particular clear Chelsea chance at goal that came off the bar, the moment o saw that, i knew it was hard luck for Chelsea and Liverpool was going to win. Both teams played their best, but there is always going to be a winner and a loser.

Chelsea fans may not be happy at Chelsea's missed opportunities.
Tense game here, a lot of goals goals denied, both teams clearly keeping a high defensive line, penalties now, and any team that wins clearly deserves the win, IMHO both teams have played hard and well enough to win this. I didn't expect a goalless draw especially with all the injuries. I'm watching the game at a public place and clearly it is Chelsea against other teams.

Going by performance in the tournament I think Liverpool stand some chance against Chelsea team.
It's a final game and you can't exactly always predict performance regardless of how each team has performed in their previous games before this final. Both teams stand a chance to lift the Carabao cup. Kieta will be starting for Liverpool and he has to impress as Thiago has had an injury while warming up for this game. Chelsea is without Ziyecha but i am sure they can cope. looking to see how the first 45mins will go.

Today there will be a West Ham match against Wolves.
It's been a goaless first half encounter with many missed opportunities to take the lead from both sides. A very boring game and Wolves have seemed to play better than Westham. I personally will like westham to drop points today, maybe a draw or even a loss. I feel some tactical changes on both side from the coaches may bring some goals in the second half, better for me if it goes the way of Wolves.
