George Frangeskides, Chairman at ALBA, explains why the Pilbara Lithium option ‘was too good to miss’. Watch the video here.
Builder, I'm not sure anyone has expressly stated that but it's very apparent some are just here to disrupt. Obviously us shareholders and the BOD didn't expect to get caught up in this but until there is some kind of realisation by that west that Russia was serious about their red lines, this will probably sit on the back burner.
The conflict is all but decided. The west are figuring out how to walk away and save face.
Might be minority, but most has turned out to be the truth. The MSM is finally admitting project Ukraine is a complete failure. The west is trying to work out how to get out of this without egg on their face. It's was a monumental miscalculation and failure of the West thinking they're superior to everyone.
Many of us were calling this nearly 2 years ago but were immediately slates as Putin apologists. You're just as much to blame with your pathetic name calling.
Builder, stop being so gas lit. "His next conquest", goodness sake.
He wanted Ukraine to remain neutral, was that really too much to ask!? If zelensky had thought he'd got the backing of the West, he'd have signed the deal in Istanbul and this would all be over. But no, Boris promised all the western backing and now we have this complete F##king disaster. Can't believe I have to explain this, but what will the US do if Mexico joined BRICS and Russia wants to put missiles on Mexican territory. You have your answer.
No one is saying what Putin has done is right but what would other leaders do faced with the same situation.
While I agree this is a EUA chat room, we are entirely in this prolonged sale process because of the ongoing situation in Ukraine. The sooner the West wake up and admit defeat and stop funding the needless deaths of all involved, the better for everyone! That will likely be the point where things can progress with EUA.
Get over yourself Saint. You only think that because of what our media has told you. Unless if course, you know the man and have witnessed him throwing people out of windows.
Ask Julian Assange how free the West is when you speak out of turn!
Hi Offler, I also agree family first.
I know you like to point out russian biased news. Please can you also point out that the remaining majority of the world's media I controlled by the the a handful of a few elites that collectively have the same agenda. This is demonstrated when the all parrot the same headlines, whether it be Ukraine, Gaza, or the pandemic. The control they have over the public is enormous.
Things that the western media are now coming admitting, would have seen the likes of database, mizman and myself being labelled as putin apologists only 12 months ago.
What we need is more fees dom of information, no people working to supresss alternative news. Let's have a discussion, not a one way street of agenda. Think you know more than anyone on here being in OSINT?
Whether or not you think Putin was wrong or right, he is the leader of Russia and ultimately is responsible for the security of the citizens. All the West had to do was respect their security concerns, just like would be expected is the shoe was on the other foot. But as usual and due to being thousands of miles away, the US thought they could weaken Russia due to building up the Ukrainian military since 2014, and let them do their bidding. Right from the off, the collective West has said "as long as it takes". As long as it takes to do what? Wipe out all Ukrainians?
I hope Makeabundle, Offler and others don't have children in the military because we're getting closer and closer to them being at risk of being sent to their needless deaths also.
It's because of people like Makeabundle and Offler, that our governments get free reign to set out on these ludicrous projects. And our media are just as complicit, as they no longer ask the difficult questions.
Russia is a rising economy, and West has never been able to accept it!
Makeabundle, you should probably stop before you embarrass yourself any further. Unfortunately, you're on the wrong side of history. The western media propaganda machine is the most powerful in the world, I don't blame you for getting sucked in. One day, you will see the light my friend and you will be welcomed.
Data,
Agree with most of those points. Only problem with the Neocons is they have no reverse gear. They will likely drag it out until Trump or someone else is elected, then dump it on them and let them take the blame for the failure of project Ukraine.
I urge people to watch the Jeffrey Sachs video. He explains a lot in only a few mins.

Pompal, I'm also ex armed forces however I was only in for 6. The I left and went offshore. I've travelled all over the world and in the last 12 months alone I've been to Abu Dhabi, Ivory Coast, Malaysia, Turkey and I'm now in Azerbaijan. I have not met one person who thinks Putin is a brutal murderer. Often what I hear is, war is not the answer but he had to do what was right for his country. It only seems to be people from western countries, but mainly the UK who have been bombarded with these narratives about his "brutal full scale invasion".
For the record, when you said you were going to care for your mum, my first thought wasn't "you live with your mum" in a derogatory way, but rather, that's an honourable and caring thing to do.
People will wake up eventually, just hope it's not when it too late!
So denying something happened is reason to be imprisoned, tortured and left in ill health to the point of death is fine in your view? OK. I guess that's how we deal we people that speak out these days. Those good old western values hey.
