He has also threatened Finland and Sweden.

In Russian: Попробуй растолочь песок, Владимир!
That translates to "Try to crush sand, Vladimir." That's as close as you can get to our idiomatic expression, "Pound sand!"

Empty posturing by Russia.

(8,965 posts)6. And as for PREDICTABLE consequences...
The U.S. and NATO allies heed Putin's warning and proceed to throw Ukraine under the bus. Russia then sends everyone involved a thank-you note for making their war crimes task so much easier.

I don't think Little Vovochka realizes that the stronger he tries to look, he just makes himself more clownish in the process.
