all'atteggiamento dell'Italia dall'inizio della guerra. Roma, ha detto, "è in prima fila tra coloro che adottano e promuovono le sanzioni anti-russe: per noi è stata una sorpresa".
Ammissione non casuale da parte di un esperto diplomatico come #Lavrov, segno inequivocabile

che indietro non si tornerà. Non con questo governo. Ma soprattutto: medaglia al valore di Mario #Draghi, capace nel giro di un anno di invertire il destino all'apparenza segnato di una piccola potenza come quella italica, vigoroso nell'atto di schierare lo Stivale dal

Russia’s ‘repositioning’ is 💯💩. They flat-out lost the #BattleofKiev and the bulk of their most elite VDV & SpetNaz units destroyed near Irpin (& Hostumel). They retreat in ruin leaving bodies & gear behind.

Let’s not allow FSB spin to diminish Ukraine’s vital victory.
🧵
Especially NW of Kiev where RUS deployed their most elite units, the UAF defense was extraordinary. Also the interdiction and destruction of that eastern thrust (the ‘column’). Holding Sumy & Chernaiv. All this after late repositioning when RUS used Belorussian territory.
The RUS goal from the start was to decapitate and replace Ukraines govt, then encircle Kiev to compel surrender. Both gambits have failed utterly due to the bravery of Ukrainian arms (& support from abroad). This is not a repositioning. This is a historic military victory.

1/ Ukrainian Theater of War, Day 15: The third week of the war opened with an underwhelming Russian offensive against west & east Kyiv. The Ukrainians continue to harass Russian supply routes and have retaken suburbs in northern Kharkiv. #UkraineWar #UkraineRussiaWar #Ukraine️
2/ Humanitarian Impact. UN sources report more than 2,3 million refugees have now fled Ukraine. Indiscriminate attacks of civilians continue to mount. Multiple cities are without electricity or potable water. Residents of Mariupol have been forced to dig mass graves.
3/ Weather assessment. Improved weather conditions throughout the Ukrainian theater will increase the frequency of VKS air and missile attacks. Warmer ground temperatures will make off road movement difficult, as recent snowfall will make the ground to soft for heavy armor.

Erstmals seit Beginn der russischen Invasion in der #Ukraine haben sich heute die Außenminister Lawrow und Kuleba in der Türkei getroffen.
Der türk. Außenminister Çavuşoğlu agierte als Vermittler.
Ankara unterhält gute Beziehungen sowohl nach Moskau als auch nach Kiew...
(2/24)
In diesem Sinne könnte sich die Türkei tatsächlich als ein internationaler Vermittler in diesem Konflikt positionieren.
Konkrete Ergebnisse wurden vom heutigen Treffen nicht erwartet, es könnte aber die Grundlage für weitere Verhandlungen legen.
