While President @ZelenskyyUa is busy talking to the South Korean parliament rather than seriously negotiating a ceasefire, It is only a question of time when #Mariupol will fall to #Russia's control, a hugely important city in the south of #Ukraine.
Read👇
Understand more about the reasons for war in #Ukraine: @ZelenskyyUa is proposing to exchange a Ukrainian citizen with other Ukrainian citizens because he considers those opposing him politically should not live in the country.
We live in a very difficult moment where the #US will try all possible means to defend its exclusive hegemony. It is the beginning of the end of the US's 30 years of total dominance. #China & #Russia r leading the way where there is a place for everybody.
#US is considering the possibility of providing #Ukraine with Mi-17 helicopters and Humvee SUVs so the war can last as long as possible. @ZelenskyyUa is fascinated by @Potus & ready to fight to the last Ukrainian to please @Joebiden.
Ukraine is still unaware of the reality.
.@BillClinton compares his action to "Peter the Great and Catherine the Great." He lied to #Russia, knew tt NATO expansion was a mistake, wouldn’t promote democracy or capitalism, Russia wld feel humiliated, cornered, and would have a terrible reaction👇
EU and Germany supply heavy weaponry to Kyiv, telling us that it would “force a defeat of Russia” while two-thirds of Donbas is gone. Western leaders know that #Russia will reach its declared objectives. wsws.org/en/articles/20…
#France President @EmmanuelMacron acknowledged that the world is no longer unipolar.
The problem is when the #US will accept the reality and stop creating havoc around the world?
EXCLUSIF. Présidentielle : Emmanuel Macron, la grande confession - w.lpnt.fr/2471952t v @LePoint
1026 Ukrainian servicemen of the 36th Marine Brigade voluntarily laid down their arms and surrendered to #Russia in #Marupol#Ukraine. Among these, there were 162 officers, as well as 47 female servicemen.
Mutual trade between #Russia & #China amounted to nearly $38.2 bn in the 1st 3 months f 2022, substantial growth of 27.8% in yuan terms compared to the same period 2021. China’s exports to Russia surged 25.9% to $16.44 bn. Russia’s sales to China grew by 31% & totalled $21.73 bn.
This is a clear #US fear of what is coming next and how its hegemony is challenged. The world situation and dynamic before the war in #Ukraine will be different after the war.
Former NATO Military Analyst Blows the Whistle on West's Ukraine Invasion Narrative: "The army is undermined by the corruption of its cadres and no longer enjoys the support of the population."
"In violation of the Minsk Accords, Ukraine is conducting aerial operations in Donbas using drones, including at least one strike against a fuel depot in Donetsk in October 2021. The American press points this out, but not the Europeans and no one condemns these violations."
"#Ukraine still & always refused to apply the Accords of Minsk, apparently under pressure from the #US. President Putin then notes that @EmmanuelMacron has made empty promises to him & that the West is not ready to enforce the Accords, as they have been doing for eight years."

The #EU Commission is drafting proposals for an oil embargo on #Russia, the foreign ministers of #Ireland, #Lithuania and the #Netherlands said at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Luxembourg, although there was no agreement to ban #Russian crude.
#Australia, #Canada and the #US, who are less reliant on Russian supply than Europe, have already banned Russian oil purchases. EU countries are split, given their higher dependency and the potential for the move to push up already high energy prices in #Europe.
The European Union should change its name to "#Ukraine Union" because President Zelenskyy is the one who decides what #Europe should or should not do. He is informing us about the EU's future steps and what each EU leader is expected to do.
His propaganda trainers r really good.
@Twitter@TwitterSupport allows this kind of violent propaganda as long as it is anti-#Russia and is suspending account handlers who speak their mind about the ongoing war in #Ukraine.
#Ukraine President is now taking to #Korea Parliament. Zelenskyy's next speeches are scheduled, most probably, on Corvo, Sea Lion and Bishop Islands to keep him on the screen daily. rd.com/list/smallest-…
#Pakistan Speaker and his vice resigned and delivered the power to the opposition to avoid voting out Prime Minister @ImranKhanPTI and deliver the power quietly. Imran Khan has less than 110 MPs on his side while the opposition has over 179, enough to lead and select the new PM.
The resignation of the Speaker and his vice did not prevent the voting, considered legal by the federal court.
Imran Khan lost 20 MPs who switched sides and dropped him.
Bottom line: It is the end of #Pakistan Imran Khan as PM.
For decades, no PM in #Pakistan completed all 5 consecutive years of the term. Yousaf Raza Gilani had the longest consecutive term of 4 years 86 days. At approximately 9 years and 215 days in total, Nawaz Sharif has been the longest-serving PM for a non-consecutive term.
#Ukraine is learning fast the art of the "fog of war" from skilful experts who excelled in news manipulation: accuse before any investigation and people, driven by hate and ignorance, are already prone to swallow anything.
In the first 2 weeks, Russia declared its goals: Ukraine recognises Crimea as Russian territory; Remain neutral w/o joining western military alliance, including NATO; Prevent the flow of strategic weapons; not become a nuclear state & recognise the Donbas province as independent.
NATO trained the Ukrainian army, supplied it with selective weapons to fight the armoured Russian troops, & offered full propaganda coverage demonising Russia & presenting Ukrainians as heroes. An opportunity the US wouldn’t miss to gather many anti-Russian supporters behind it.
In #Ukraine, Washington is directing the battle because its generals wanted to avoid the experience of #Afghanistan and how the Afghan army delivered Kabul without fighting when President Joe Biden expected it to fight for “six months”. Ukraine is doing exactly what the US wants.
There is a "US order" and the west follows and is totally submitted to it. The US is not "the International". It represents 5% of the World's population but bullying the world.
