I said in my live Avers TV interview in Western #Ukraine that Putin claims of genocide in #Ukraine in #Donbas to justify #Russian invasion are false. My studies found that there is no such genocide.

Putin false claims of genocide in #Ukraine are aimed at giving legitimacy to #Russian invasion, which is illegal under international law, by using humanitarian intervention casus belli that was used by NATO under false pretexts during Kosovo and Libya wars. 2/

#RussiaUkraineWar
My analysis suggests that likely ultimate goal of #Russian invasion of Ukraine is regime change. This includes replacement & of government & foreign & domestic policies, e.g. abandoning NATO membership goal, “denazification,” & transforming #Ukraine into federal state. 3/
As I predicted in my interviews, NATO and US do not intervene militarily in #Russia #Ukraine war. They won’t heed calls by #Zelenskyy to create no flight zone over #Ukraine because this would mean NATO/US war with nuclear Russia. 4/
As I also predicted, economic sanctions did not deter Putin from using military force. #Zelenskyy & #Putin expressed willingness to discuss negotiated settlement of #RussiaUkraineWar. Such settlement now would be on much worse terms for #Ukraine than before #Russian invasion. 5/
I studied Nazi and Soviet genocides in #Ukraine & published this peer-reviewed article. #Genocide is defined "as mass murder and other similar acts committed with the intent to destroy a significant part of an ethnic, racial, religious, or social group." researchgate.net/publication/24…

Unbelievable: Videos show explosions, gunshots and burned vehicles on Prospekt Peremohy near two metro stations in #Kyiv in Ukraine. I lived & went to university in this very area for 4 years.

Unbelievable: Armed Forces of #Ukraine confirm this attack on its military unit in #Kyiv near Beresteiska metro station. Media reports bridge blown-up & #Russian troops moving via Prospekt Peremohy towards Kyiv center. I lived & went to university in this very area for 4 years.
My #Kyiv National Economic University is located in area of fighting between #Ukrainian & #Russian troops on Prospekt Peremohy between these two metro stations. I lived near both these metro stations when I was student. US Embassy in #Ukraine is nearby.

NeoNazi Azov leader calls #Ukraine president & his Servant of People party "servant of Russian people" & "party of f... capitulators" after #Zelenskyy offers to negotiate with #Russia. Azov Regiment calls foreigners to join. Far right can overthrow Zelensky or threaten peace deal
My studies show that #Ukraine is not ruled by neo-Nazis, contrary to #Putin claims. But neo-Nazi & other far right have their own National Guard & paramilitary units & power to overthrow #Ukrainian government or threaten overthrow to block peace deal.

Far right organizations & snipers had crucial roles in violent overthrow of Yanukovych in #Ukraine in 2014. They were involved in false-flag Maidan massacre of #Maidan protesters & police & in attempts to assassinate Yanukovych. This made him flee Ukraine. researchgate.net/publication/33…
