  1. This is going to be great. Now the Moskali in the various countries cannot funnel into Russia through Belarus. So how will these international ruSSo-criminals get back to the mafia to pay their bribes and get their marching orders? My wife reminds me that Moldova still has direct flights to Moskovia so let’s hope that changes soon.
