“The US and UK governments show no efforts or desire to achieve peaceful settlement of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine,” says Ivan Katchanovski, a Ukrainian professor of political studies at the University of Ottawa" #Ukraine #Ukraine️war 1/ jacobinmag.com/2022/05/peace-…
“Such a peace settlement was better for Ukraine than the continuation of the war, which results in significant civilian and military casualties, destruction, and negative economic impact,” says Katchanovski." 2/ #Ukraine️ #UkraineRussianWar #Russia #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraineWar
"“The media often falsely equated proposals of a settlement with policies of appeasement of Nazi Germany,” says Katchanovski. “This made peace in Ukraine toxic, even though even a ‘bad’ peace is better than a ‘good’ war.”" 3/ #Ukraine️ #UkraineRussianWar #UkraineWar #Russia
"Propaganda and intelligence have been interchangeably filtered through the Western press and presented as truth. “Such coverage creates inaccurate perceptions about the state of the war and its likely outcome, and complicates a peaceful settlement,” says Katchanovski." 4/

#Zelenskyy about #Ukrainian military casualties during #RussiaUkraineWar : "The situation is very difficult, 60-100 soldiers per day die in combat and about 500 are wounded in combat." This would equal 1,800-3,100 killed & 15,000-15,500 wounded per month. pravda.com.ua/news/2022/06/1…
#Zelenskyy statement about 60-100 soldiers killed & about 500 wounded per day in combat is minimal casualty number. Missing in action, who are killed, are not reported as killed. Casualty numbers also likely exclude territorial defense, police, SBU, etc & non-combat casualties.
#Zelenskyy made this statement in Newsmax interview: "The situation is very difficult; we're losing 60-100 soldiers per day as killed in action and something around 500 people as wounded in action." #Ukraine #Russia #UkraineRussiaWar #RussiaUkraineWar newsmax.com/newsmax-tv/vol…

Article reports findings of my scholarly studies about overwhelming evidence of involvement of oligarchic & far-right opposition elements in Maidan massacre of protesters & police to overthrow government in #Ukraine. #Ukraine️war #Ukrainian #UkraineRussia dailysceptic.org/2022/05/30/was…

Media continue to whitewash neo-Nazi-led Azov regiment, which surrendered in #Mariupol, & new #Azov units which were organized & led after start of #Russian invasion by National Corp, civilian wing of #Azov. Proxy war outweighs democracy in #Ukraine. thetimes.co.uk/article/azov-b…
Like it used neo-Nazi-led Azov regiment to justify its illegal invasion of Ukraine under pretext of "denazification" & to falsely claim that Nazis share power in Ukraine, #Russia would use new #Azov units to continue its war in #Ukraine & to annex more territories of Ukraine.
This neo-Nazi-led #Azov Kraken battalion, which was implicated in shooting Russian POWs, along with its @thetimes whitewash would be used by #Russian propaganda during Russia's war in #Ukraine. It's like renamed al-Qaeda was whitewashed during #Syria war. bbc.com/news/60907259

#Zelensky reveals that 50 to 100 #Ukrainian soldiers are killed each day in Eastern #Ukraine at #RussiaUkraineWar. This means that about 1,500 to 3,000 Ukrainian soldiers are killed & 6.000-15,000 wounded each month only in Eastern #Ukraine. #Russia 1/ pravda.com.ua/news/2022/05/2…
Ukrainian military casualty numbers revealed by #Zelenskyy exclude #RussiaUkraineWar in Southern #Ukraine and likely many those killed but reported as missing in action. Various gruesome videos & photos show bodies of many #Ukrainian soldiers lying on battlefields in #Donbas. 2/
Ukrainian daily military casualty numbers reported by #Zelenskyy also exclude casualties of #Russian missile strikes in other regions of #Ukraine.There are also some 5,000 Ukrainian POWs. Human toll of #RussiaUkraineWar in #Ukraine is devastating. #UkraineRussiaWar #Russia 3/

@readthemaple "“[The war] could have been avoided and prevented,” Katchanovski explained. Specifically, an agreement in which Ukraine promised to remain a neutral country and the fulfilment of the Minsk accords could have stopped Putin’s invasion, he said." 2/
"Katchanovski suggested that before Putin’s invasion, a successful peace agreement could have allowed for Ukraine to eventually join the European Union (EU) in exchange for neutrality." 3/

#Zelenskyy says that it will take lives of tens of thousands of Ukrainians to defeat #Russia: "I have no doubt that we will win, but we must remember that the price of all this is tens of thousands of lives." #Ukraine #UkraineRussiaWar #UkraineWar #Ukraina
strana.news/news/391787-po…
My research suggests that continuation of #RussianUkrainianWar war would likely result in tens of thousands of killed Ukrainians, while victory over #Russia is not very likely even with massive supplies of Western weapons & funding. #Ukraine #UkraineRussiaWar #UkraineWar #Ukraina
My research-based estimate of total minimal number of #Ukrainian casualties of #UkraineRussiaWar is around 10,000 people killed already, including minimum 5,000 civilians & 5,000 military. It is derived from #Zelenskyy's military casualties number & UN civilian casualties data.
