The Ukrainian leadership is challenging #Russia: Russia intercepted "at least two missiles fired from #Ukraine" over Belgorod. This is another level of Rule of Engagement that #Kyiv is trying to impose, bringing the war to another more critical level.

I believe, following the #US supply of lethal weapons to #Ukraine and #Russia's warning letter to #Washington, many lethal western weapons will find their way very quickly to the black market, mainly the Middle East.

Western lethal weapons confiscated in #Ukraine can fire back against the #US troops. #Iraq and #Syria could be one of the places where the NATO provided weapons to #Ukraine might show up.

It is not to NATO's advantage to escalate. History is full of the boomerang effect.
What kind of world we are creating for the next generations?
President @ZelenskyyUa thinks the war is just a theatre he is playing a role in and the #US is taking advantage of his ambition to confront #Russia and defend its hegemony.
The EU deplores the "unjustified, baseless decision of #Russia to expel 18 members of the EU Delegation that were in full respect for the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations" because it is its exclusive right to expel 200 Russian diplomats first.

Double standards:
The U.S. MOD said Saturday that Israel was entitled to protect itself against acts of aggression. The statement was made after Israel attacked a dozen Iranian and Syrian targets in Syria earlier in the day.

Last night, Israeli launched a missile attack near the Syrian capital Damascus. No reaction from western leaders?

#Ukraine #Russia

Will NATO arm #Syria to stand against the Israeli aggressions? When are we seeing President Bashar al-Assad speaking to EU parliaments?

When a #US ally bombs and destroys a sovereign country's infrastructure, it is ok. That is an act of "self-defence".

All #US wars have been cruel, destroying infrastructures, killing civilians (have the guts to call it "Collateral damage"), organising coups and invading countries to change regimes. If #Russia will avoid the "superpower style of war", its military campaign will be costly & long.
NATO didn't help #Turkey in #Syria when downing a Russian Jet for fear of Putin's reaction. No longer the case.
"If the Russians were to strike NATO territory, where materiel is being assembled, that would invoke Article 5 & a complete game-changer."
reuters.com/world/us-preps…
#US is waving Article 5 AFTER seeing Russian performance in #Ukraine. If #Russia doesn't put on its "superpower hat", #Finland, #Sweeden and #Giorgia will be next of the 30-NATO countries members.

Wrong: Western weapons are not fired from " #Poland #Hungary #Romania #Moldova" but transiting through these countries. They r delivered into #Ukraine. All trucks & wagons have a destination, meaning failure in Russian intel to identify the targets.

#Israel is far from being a superpower, yet, it has bombed #Syria w/ 4200 missiles and air attacks with precision weapons, identifying Syrian warehouses where Iranian weapons r stocked. Saying "difficult to identify weapons supply in #Ukraine" is an insult to Russia's capability
#Russia made serious mistakes in #Ukraine and underestimated the readiness of its opponents (NATO) and the willingness of the Ukrainians to fight back. Peskov said the "losses are significant", meaning it was far from being a diversion tactic. That is the reality.

How I see it from my experience.
NATO is not winning the war for many reasons:
1. The Russian army made many mistakes in undermining the Ukrainian will to fight back
2. Ru army did not offer an adequate air cover to its armoured troops and didn't use the infantry but in Mariupol
3. The Russian army did not have war experience but in Syria using limited infantry and mainly the Air Force. This war was necessary to "clean" the Army and for it to update itself in war tactics and rely heavily on infantry and drones. +
4. Russia expected to be received as "peace keeping forces", indicating the failure of intelligence because the #US was running the show and the war was not going to be a promenade. +

#US population, like most countries around the globe, r suffering from inflation due to US wars and @joebiden admin is releasing $800 million in arms and military equipment so the war in #Ukraine continues. Americans should stand against these decisions.

The #US administration has exhausted all west and central Asia wars (#Syria, #Iraq, #Lybia #Afghanistan), therefore it is intentionally fueling one on European soil.

Now it is Europe's turn and #Ukraine might be only the beginning after @joebiden "convinced" Finald to join NATO.

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.

"Like us, European".

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.

OPEC tells the #EU it's not possible to replace potential #Russian oil supply loss, as per #Ukraine'spresident request to all European state leaders.
reuters.com/business/energ…
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.
