This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 91%. (I'm a bot)

> The Svoboda Alliance of Australia and New Zealand is a Russian ethnic group that organises public protests and tries to combat Russian language propaganda Down Under.

> Government 'looking hard' at Russia's presence in Australia There are fears some individuals are helping wage a propaganda war for the Kremlin and sowing division among local Russian speakers, prompting the Labor government to make its strongest comments since taking office on Russia's presence in Australia.

> "For over half a decade, Russian diplomats have tried to weaponise the Russian diaspora in Australia."Now the Russian state is targeting Russian Australians who uphold democratic values and human rights.

Putin's allies are active all over the world. This is literally his last hurrah, it's his ass on the line. He'll do anything that might help him turn this around and actually survive the next few years. His literal life very likely hangs on the outcome of the war, and like most people, I think he likes being alive.

Dude was literally contemplating nukes, before papa Xi told him it was a no-no. Probably still thinking about it, even though it'd just be a step closer to his suicide.

Every NATO country, applicant, and ally should end diplomatic relations with Russia, simultaneously. We can all just expel their entire foreign ministry staff of all levels. It would hurt their information warfare success for sure.

Nice try.

Last time Australia tried to invade and occupy the proud r-EMU-blic, they suffered a h-EMU-liating defeat.

I don't see why the Emus would aid their rival nation of Australia.

C’mon Albo, get rid of some of these ‘diplomats’. Like we give a rats arse about having diplomatic relations with Russia.

This is news! Poutine has allies! That is like saying that the San Diego Padres have fans. Probably not true.

Five Eyes (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand) is arguably a tighter alliance than NATO. NATO the US has to wine and dine to get what it wants, FVEY the US says "we're going this way" and the rest of us tip that hat and say "yes guvnah I'll bring the gun". If NATO is the western whities group chat, FVEY is the sub-group-chat of western whities who speak English.
