They didn't just threaten Ukraine. they threatened anyone supplying or steering the weapons via satellite with their locattion-intel. Thus, anyone making the decisions. That broadly means UK, Germany. France, Sweden, Netherlands or USA. More specifically, it means Blinken, Stoltenberg, Nuland and anyone else swinging pompoms for Ukraine. The Russians have already destroyed many bases where a bunch of mercenaries accidentally left phone-traces - but those are mere soldiers. So I think the Russians are looking at a strike on those eejits who think their balls are big, and they feel safe, far away.
The long-range, smart, ICBMs that Russia can fire, don't need to be nuclear, but they can hit pretty much anything, and anyone, within minutes - just saying.
The response could mean the targetting of actual satellites, but I see that Moscow have banished six UK diplomats (spies) for starters - which is still a typical Putin soft approach (Because he is patiently waiting for the well-defined casus belli). But, there are many in the Kremlin who are champing at the bit, so to speak.
Is it related to the Tennessee investigation https://www.youtube.com/live/f6GgHUW0-0M?si=nbOFSKt21X7WzHH3&t=611 ?
Interesting, thanks for paste.

The sanctions against Channel One were not approved by the US Congress
And I would be very interested to understand how it was that when my house [in the US] was searched [in August], which lasted four days, and things were taken out by trucks with trailers, how it was that on my lawn, according to the neighbors, there were about 50 people, many of whom came not in official cars, as the FBI usually does, but in private cars. And how was it that these people, some of whom later turned up in a shop in a neighbouring small town, somehow spoke Ukrainian? I would really like to understand what role Ukrainian interference in American politics played in this situation.
This article is about Dimitri Simes, a 76-yr old American citizen and journalist, who has had his accounts frozen and is threatened with arrest for supposedly violating US sanctions (i.e. he wrote articles for Russian media); and money-laundering (he moved his Russian salary from a Russian bank, through a third-party country so that he could pay tax in the USA)
Simes served as President of the Nixon Center and later as president and CEO of the Center for the National Interest, a major Republican-party aligned think tank.
LOL
Popstars are not legitimate sources for one to make a decision on who to vote for, it seems.
