Idk about politics but I know stuff about fire. Catostrophic wildfires can be prevented by making sure there isn’t lots of dead, dry wood… not lots of dead, dry grass. Prescribed fire is the big way to do this, also mowing and landscaping properly around buildings. And most wildfires do have a human-based ignition point as well.
If the Ukrainians and the West hadn’t made us invade with all their provocations, then the firefighting services would have been fully staffed and available to fight the fire. If you lost property or loved ones in the fire, just know, it’s on the Ukrainians’ heads. How DARE they. And that’s why we have to defeat them, which we’re already doing, of course.

I also just sort of assumed that that statement was total bullshit (although I have no idea for sure, or why he would say it if so.)

I thought they were massively flooded? I guess both can be true when you have a huge country.
A fire? at the sea parks?
At this time of the year?
Happened in Australia in the same location last year… They went from bush fires to flooding in a day.

About 11% of the Earth’s land is Russia. It is bigger than three of the continents, and within a whisker of the size of the fourth (South America).
So you’re saying it’s big? /s
Yuge
I don’t know how, but I bet Putin will spin this into some pro war argument.
He’ll have to be inventive. It’s literally on the other side of the country from Ukraine. The closest borders are Mongolia and China
He’s a resourceful guy. I believe in him.

Hey hey, no need to make his job easier, okay? Also, no spoilers.
Ukrainian infiltrators started the fires using the jewish space lasers the Americans are raving about!
(It’s actually frightening, that only the reasonable part of that sentence is made up)
putin has issued a warning promising fire that this will have consequences.
