Leakers from the #Kremlin have confirmed these points:

- #Russia will officially send an application for the annexation of #Crimea and #Donbass in the #RussianFederation to the #UnitedNations Image
If da @UN refuse, #Russia will declare war on #Ukraine with the objective of dissolving its government and its military at all costs, with the full employment of all its arsenal and the targeting of decision making centers
- An immediate warning will be sent to every Ukrainian, urging all civilians to escape the country and all military personnel to defect or surrender, they will have a week (some say a month) to do so after which everyone remaining will be treated as a combatant

For the past two days, #Russian President Vladimir #Putin has been discussing an idea, which he passes off as his own, of course, how to "drain" the negative relatively painlessly if "significant territorial concessions" have to be made to freeze the conflict in #Ukraine.
1/8
The idea belongs to ​​Yuri Kovalchuk and goes as follows: to support Yevgeny #Prigozhin’s self-promotion as much as possible and help him organize (with the participation and under the control of the Presidential Administration) a political party or movement.
2/8
This party should involve the maximum number of socially significant ultra-patriots and be stuffed with agents. #Prigozhin should be put at the head, and Strelkov-Girkin should be his deputy. Even seats in the parliament are promised after early elections next year.

THREAD: An intriguing appointment
1. Russia's new commander of the so-called special military operation in #Ukraine, #SergeySurovikin, led at Moscow in August 1991 a military unit bloodily defending a #Soviet imperialist usurpation to preserve the empire.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergey_Su…
2. His harshness (#Russian: #surovost') saved, however, neither the 1991 coup nor the #USSR. Rather, it hastened the #Soviet #collapse that year. Chances are that #Surovikin may now accomplish the same bloody trick for #Putin's #neoimperial project and the #RussianFederation.

(1/3) The situation is extremely tense. Starting at 1:00pm, the enemy resumed intensive rocket and artillery attacks along the entire border from #Sotk to #Goris, targeting peaceful settlements, as well.

#RussiaGoesNuclear: Hopefully, journalistic & political discussion of possible disaster at the #ZaporizhzhiaNPP will address the core of the matter: The cause of the catastrophe will be an, under the #NPT, official nuclear-weapon state & #UNSecurityCouncil permanent member. /1
The #RussianFederation will conduct a weaponization of civilian atomic power and high radioactivity in an offensive war of annihilation against #Ukraine - an official non-nuclear weapon state and UN founding member (the #UkrSSR entered the #UN with a separate seat, in 1945). /2
Moscow's hybrid military deployment of Europe's largest atomic station as the equivalent of a neutron bomb is fully intended to result in massive health damages for millions of Ukrainians, and even potentially their mass murder. /3

🧵English translation of an extremely important and interesting article written by Gen. #Zaluzhny (Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of #Ukraine) and Lt. Gen. Zabrodskyi "Prospects for securing the military campaign of 2023: the Ukrainian view": ukrinform.ua/rubric-ato/356…
HOW LONG CAN THIS WAR LAST & HOW CAN WE WIN IT: Today the absolute majority of military experts & analysts agree that
the full-scale war unleashed by the russian federation against Ukraine on 02-24-2022,
has long exceeded the concept of a local conflict of medium intensity. ⬇️ Image
This applies to the spatial indicators, the number of involved military forces, and the impressive list of weapons and other
high-tech equipment whose usage is characteristic of this military confrontation.⬇️

The, perhaps, strangest thing about the #DuginPhenomenon is not something connected to #Dugin himself. It is the high attention he gets not only within the #RussianFederation, but also outside #Russia - including the West. /1
@FFRAFAction @NewFascSyllabus
Read most of #Dugin's texts published until 2007 (when submitting a dissertation on him at @Cambridge_Uni). Cannot remember anything intellectually stimulating, in his many books and articles - unlike in the often interesting investigations of the interwar #Eurasianists. /2
#Dugin often makes pointedly pompous statements that are either trivialities or absurdities, or a mixture of both. When he discusses an interesting theory, it is not his own. He reads & writes a lot, but it is unclear why he does. /3

What if there's a war tomorrow? How the defense industry of Kazakhstan lives. Part I

There are two types of defense industry enterprises in Kazakhstan. Due to the specifics of each company, they do not advertise themselves particularly.

The first type includes those organizations and factories that #Kazakhstan has inherited from #USSR. This is the production of torpedoes, large-caliber machine guns, components and components for aviation equipment, as well as breathing apparatus for military aviation. /2

The Russian #Ruble (RUB) is poised to become a dangerous global currency & here is a 🧵 explaining why.

#Thread
The Central Bank of the #RussianFederation just profoundly altered the international trade & monetary system by linking the Russian ruble to both gold (XAU) & commodities.
By offering to buy XAU from Russian banks at a fixed price of 5000RUB/gram, the Central Bank of Russia has ties the ruble to XAU. And by extension, to the dollar (XAU is traded in U$D)

The #MinistryofDefense of the Republic of #Azerbaijan expresses regret regarding the one-sided statement of the Ministry of Defense of the #RussianFederation dated March 26, 2022, which does not reflect the reality. Image
On March 25, during the telephone conversation between #Azerbaijan Defense Minister Col Gen Zakir Hasanov and Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, the situation in the territory of Azerbaijan, where the Russian peacekeeping forces are temporarily stationed, was discussed.
The Azerbaijani side stated that the positions and deployment locations are being clarified on spot.

3/ #Belarus has strengthened the protection of the border with #Ukraine, there is a high chance of direct participation of the Belarusian military forces in the war against Ukraine

1/5 Explanation of why Russian Federation is on the UN Security Council, succeeding to the USSR‘s seat after the USSR fell. #UNSecurityCouncil #RussianFederation
2/5 Some have argued USSR-Russian Federation succession shouldn’t have been automatic since the USSR would no longer exist as a legal entity & RF should’ve simply become another UN member along w/ other former USSR states.
3/5 Still, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) voted to agree to the seat succession to RF. See “Agreements Establishing the [CIS]” at: venice.coe.int/webforms/docum…

🪡

A few thoughts about #Ukraine’s case at the #ICJ. Some have already tweeted on this (@OriPomson, @VidigalGeraldo, @amirafarhadi, @niccoloridi and @mabecker17 among others)—here’s my take. ✍🏻

#UkraineRussiaWar #UkraineInvasion

Ukraine’a Application: icj-cij.org/public/files/c…
Apologies in advance for getting all #ICJ on this. 👩🏻‍⚖️

I understand the political decision for making an application to the ICJ. This thread is in no way a judgment of that decision, which is very well founded in the terrible events of the last week especially.
That said, Ukraine has (sadly but realistically) an uphill battle both to obtain the #provisionalmeasures it seeks (link to request below) and in the eventual #preliminaryobjections.
