I have no problem with 4G but I want simple, basic, small GOOD BUILD QUALITY phones with buttons and non-android/iOS OS like Nokia 3310, 8800, Razr v3, etc.

Savings is not their goal. Destruction of democracy is. We need to stop echoing what they say and explicitly say what they do.

Absolutely not cause I grew up in Ukraine and I know how EU and NATO used to not give a damn about Ukraine. You are barking up the wrong tree.

That's not leadership. That's blackmail.

There is absolutely no talking to russia because russia will not respect any talks or agreements. Talking to russia will only buy time for russia to rearm and attack again. Here is the proof:

"Zelensky sent Trump list of all 'ceasefires' violated by Russia"

https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-gave-trump-list-of-all-...

russia respects nothing except getting punched back. They will break every single agreement. No amount of talking will make a situation any better, only worse, because it will give time to russia to rearm. The center cannot hold, it's too late, he comes.

Anybody who suggests "talking to russia" have absolutely no clue what they are talking about. Anybody who suggests "talking to russia" is either slow or works for russia.

One does not simply "Being cozy with" with russia. If you are "Being cozy with" with russia you are fully compromised by russia. It's like "Being cozy with" with Nazi Germany. There are no "halfsies".

russia does not need to be a strategic threat. They destroyed USA from within instead of fighting it head-on, fair and square.

Not anymore now so that they successfully installed their puppet government. Trump is USA's Yanukovych:
