Over 70% of #Mariupol is under #Russia's control and @ZelenskyyUa is still waiting for NATO to intervene, not able to negotiate and end this war because the #US and the west want him to fight to the last Ukrainian.
#UK Intelligence Service said #Russia is in control of most of southern #Ukraine.
If Russia controls most of the south and the east, surrounding #Kyiv, how then the Russian forces have been defeated?
Why the #US is not allowing Ukrainian officials to negotiate and stop the war?
We are seeing less & less fake claims that " #Russia is losing the war" and more accusations of Russian troops' indiscriminate attacks & gains.
This explains that #Ukraine is not capable of winning over the Russian army. The west should stop sending weapons & promote peace.
Thursday the 31st of March #Europe will decide if the gas from #Russia will be paid in #Rubel or it will have to live w/o (impossible) for the next year. Europe can't impose sanctions on Russia, supply #Ukraine w/ weapons & freeze 100s of billions of $ $ Euros w/o consequences.
Like in every war, I receive these complaints. And like in every war, I block thousands of people who write personal, offensive or smear comments. If you disagree, you are most welcome. If you lack respect, you'll meet my extremely accurate Block button.
Have a great day.
A meeting between #Russia President Vladimir Putin & his #Ukrainian counterpart Vladimir Zelensky will be necessary as soon as there is clarity on all vital issues for Moscow, FM Sergey Lavrov said."We need a results-based outcome of the negotiations first."

I would say the unipolar is concentrated now in the heart of the western countries and the multipolar is going through difficult labor and contractions before its final delivery.

#Russia said it is in control of 93% of the Luhansk region and 54% of the Donetsk region. The first objective is more than obvious: to control Donbas fully before moving to other objectives aiming to submit the US-led Ukrainian government.
Prsdnt Biden invents a narrative to say he has defeated Russia's objective. How can Biden know what is Prsdnt Putin's intent?

#Turkey President challenges the #US & reminds Europe of its self-Trap: Ankara does not plan to impose sanctions on #Russia. We need to act based on our country’s priorities. Ankara does not intend to take measures that would harm Turkey. We maintain close relations with Russia.
The UK provide £4.1 million for the BBC World Service as part of a cross-government effort to spread disinformation on the #Russia and #Ukraine war, as well as policing support for the International Criminal Court's investigation into war crimes that previous US admin sanctioned.
One of the greatest aspects of #Russia's tactic is that the Kremlin allowed #Ukraine’s telecommunications infrastructure to continue operating. Many cities retain a good proportion of pre-war connectivity, which means Russia is avoiding the destruction of the infrastructure.
The still functioning internet has allowed Ukrainians to keep in touch with their families separated by the war and to keep in contact with the outside world. #Russia's permission for #Ukraine to keep its networks running is also an important source of intelligence gathering.
Listen to Professor John J. Mearsheimer, the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science at the #US University of Chicago explaining the origin of the Ukraine-Russia war: "It is all about NATO expansion"
"We are encouraging the Ukrainians to resist. We are not going to fight for them, they are on their own, but we are going to fight for the last Ukrainians, we are going to arm them and hope they can hang as long as possible", said Professor Mearsheimer.
"The #Russian will crush the Ukrainians because it is an existential threat to Russia to include Ukraine into NATO. When a great power feels threatened, the Russian will do everything to win and are sending signals how seriously they are taking this war".
Why did Food prices jump 20.7% yr/yr to hit a record high in Feb according to the UN?
It is due to the #US and #EU sanctions that will never change the course of events in #Ukraine. It is the US imposing its hegemony, careless about the consequences.

President Vladimir Putin: From now on, payments from the #EU & other western countries (#US incl) for Russian gas must be made in rubles, since #Russia no longer trusts #Euro and #Dollar as currencies.
The Ruble gained value in the market for the first time since March 1.
