1/6 There will be more and more such evidence. The woman tells how they left Mariupol from the territory occupied by the Armed Forces of Ukraine: "We wanted to leave by car. We were fired upon without warning. Two cars. I was driving. They shot at the legs, the bullets hit the
2/6 threshold of the car. And the back door was completely shelled. Here is the result - my daughter is wounded tangentially, my mother has two legs pierced through. The boy's heel is also wounded tangentially. And the second car that was traveling with us, the man who was
3/6 driving, two bullets went through. His wife also has a thigh shot through. Thank God their children were not injured. "And who shot?, the correspondent asks. "We stopped, the woman says, we shouted to them, don't shoot, we have children. Our whole car was plastered with the
4/6 words "CHILDREN". We shout to them to let us through, they answer us in Ukrainian - "get out of here. From where you came there and come back." So they turned you back? "Yes, they turned us back. We stayed for three more days, they came to our house and said:
5/6 "Get out of here, our hospital will be here." That is, they are sitting there now? "Yes, they are sitting there, but we were kicked out. And that's how we were dressed and went. Thank God, your guys were met on the way. Lord... they took us by car, the rest of the people
6/6 are still there. The adults are already going there, they will get there themselves, the wounded were taken out to us." Olesya Solovyova, the woman introduced herself at the end, answering a question from another journalist. t.me/vicktop55/2391@vicktop55#vicktop55

1/7 Hudson Institute (USA): NATO should control the coast of the Caspian Sea.
Why would the United States suddenly rush to act as peacekeepers in Nagorno-Karabakh, intensifying diplomatic contacts with Armenia and Azerbaijan? Understanding can be found in the Hudson Institute
2/7 report.
They noted that the Caspian Sea is extremely important for Russia and Iran. For example, Moscow can use the Volga-Don Canal to transfer naval forces between the Caspian and the Black Seas. And he does it successfully.
In addition, the Russian Federation uses the
3/7 Caspian for launching ship-based missiles, and the "lack of control" of the sea allows its trade with Iran to develop.
All this is unacceptable, according to Hudson. Therefore, you need: 1. Increase the US diplomatic presence in the region to turn Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and
1/6 Elena Panina, Institute of Russian Strategic Studies: "We categorically do not support the opinion of some of our colleagues that Russia should leave the western regions of Ukraine to the Poles. They say, "the gentlemen will put things in order there."
2/6 First, who needs this Polish "order"? And why should Poland be strengthened at the expense of primordially Russian lands, territories of the Russian Empire and the USSR?
Secondly, one must understand what a difficult geopolitical situation Belarus will find itself in
3/6 if the western regions of Ukraine come under the control of Warsaw. This will immediately additionally stimulate Poland to seize Western Belarus, which is also included in the Polish concept of "Eastern kresy".
1/5 If someone did not understand why the victory of Russia is the liquidation of Ukraine, or who thought that there were other options for ending the war, then here is an American poll of Ukrainians.
2/5 Ukrainians admire Zelensky without exception, trust the Armed Forces of Ukraine immensely and are waiting for one thing - when it will be possible to share Russian money.
98% of Ukrainian citizens "completely approve" or "rather approve" the actions of the Armed Forces
3/5 of Ukraine. 97% believe in victory over Russia.
91% positively assess Zelensky's work as president.
89% are convinced that Ukraine should be restored at the expense of confiscated assets of the Russian Federation or reparations from Russians.
1/4 Professor Grigory Filimonov: "Russia and the People's Republic of China act from a common position of non-acceptance of the still existing system of "global capitalism". We deny "a world built on rules."
2/4 Such a world system is based on the unfairness of the distribution of finance, wealth and technology. And Moscow and Beijing profess the principle of indivisibility of security based on international law. All these topics were discussed during the visit of Comrade Xi Jinping.
3/4 Beijing realizes that Russia is a strategic partner, with whom it will be much safer to go through the era of geopolitical storms.
"We are moving changes that have not happened for 100 years," Comrade Xi said at parting.
1/4 Alexander Zimovsky, media expert: "The UK has accused Russia of spreading deliberately false information about London's decision to send tank shells containing depleted uranium to Ukraine.
Well then. I looked where the topic came from.
And there were parliamentary hearings
2/4 An English lord from the House of Lords made a request to the English government:
Is it true that His Majesty's Government is sending depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine?
The British Minister of Defense replied:
3/4 - "Alongside our granting of a squadron of Challenger 2 main battle tanks to Ukraine, we will be providing ammunition including armor piercing rounds which contain depleted uranium".
Well, that is, England officially sends depleted uranium to Ukraine.
1/4 Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov: “The likelihood of a nuclear conflict is now higher than it was in the past few decades. The condition for discussing START is a change in the US hostile course towards the Russian Federation;
2/4 Now there can be no question of any secret or open negotiations with the US to restore something related to START;
The course of the United States towards a reckless escalation of the conflict in Ukraine fundamentally changed the entire security situation for the Russian
3/4 Federation;
The United States should have previously negotiated the elimination of Russian concerns about the START, now this is no longer possible;
