Propagandists like Tucker, who are now telling how good it is in Russia and Moscow. I advise you to go not to the capital of Russia or St. Petersburg, but to other regions of this country and see how millions of other Russians live.

All these pictures of poverty and devastation in the cities and villages of Russia will not be shown to you on Russian federal channels. Such propagandists and puppets of Russia in the West will not show them to you either. They will show an embellished picture of Moscow, St. Petersburg... but will not show the rest of the population and cities of Russia, living below the poverty line. They won't show you the problems of this country. All these years, their propaganda has constantly brainwashed and incited hatred towards the West and Ukraine. Most of the Russian shows were devoted to the theme of Ukraine. But not a word about Russia's internal problems.

Why doesn't Russia and its government need beautiful neighboring countries nearby? Because it will expose them, and their people will have a question: why do we, having so many resources, live worse than others?

The true face of Russia. Instead of taking care of your country, your people. They need to find an illusory enemy who will take their eyes off their problems: West, Ukraine…
They need to “save” and liberate Ukraine from the West and the United States, destroying its cities and people with missiles. They don’t need a strong and prosperous Ukraine nearby...

Someone will object and say that in almost every country in the world there are disadvantaged areas, abandoned cities, etc.
Yes, I partially agree. In any country in the world you can find disadvantaged areas, homeless people, etc.
But the difference between these countries and Russia is that these countries do not spend billions of dollars on crazy occupation wars while their own country and most of the population live below the poverty line.
The difference between Ukraine and Russia is that Ukraine, despite its internal problems, which, unfortunately, also exist, does not invade foreign countries with the aim of occupying their lands. Moreover, by abandoning the world's third-largest nuclear weapon, Ukraine showed that it is a peaceful country and people and does not want to attack anyone and has never wanted war.
But Russia will always be an imperialist terrorist state. There will always be little territory for her, there will always be little blood. She will always want to destroy other peoples and enslave them. Everything else is just empty excuses and lies in attempts to hide the true face of Russia.

⬇️🧵

Today Ukraine launched a missile strike on russia.

But wait, it's an ordinary russia, in its normal state. Her cities and villages. Apparently, this is the same "dirty bomb."

No, it's not a country after the war. This is a country (russia) that likes to destroy other countries... so that everyone would live and be like russia. They spend billions of money on wars, killings of people and genocide of other peoples. These are pure Nazis and terrorists.

When pro-Russian puppets tell you that Ukraine is “escalating” by striking Russian territory or territory occupied by Russia (Crimea is Ukraine). Show them these shots. I would like to remind you how Russian terrorists are using the Crimean Bridge. Supply of weapons and military equipment, so that they can then kill Ukrainians and bomb Ukrainian cities. Do you feel the difference? When Ukraine strikes ammunition depots, logistics and other facilities of Russian terrorists who attacked Ukraine. And when Russia attacks a peaceful city, civilian objects, residential buildings, hospitals, kindergartens and schools, etc.

What other escalation could there be? Russia is destroying civilians, killing children and destroying cities in the center of Europe! What escalation could there be from Ukraine? Should we silently watch as they try to destroy us? Or has defending your home, your freedom, your life and the lives of your loved ones become a crime? Anyone who says that Ukraine does not have the right to respond to Russian aggression and strike its territory in order to destroy objects that serve as sources of their terror... are accomplices of its aggression and terror.

In the first photo, military engineers, programmers who set the trajectory to Russian missiles that kill Ukrainians and bomb peaceful cities.

In the second photo, the "employees" of the Auschwitz concentration camp.

russian bots and puppets actively entered the comments. How are things going with the Black Sea Fleet, clowns?

When an ignorant person claims that some part of a sovereign country should belong to another because it used to be, you open a Pandora's box. All countries in the world at some point in history were part of another country. Let's share everything in a new way?
If we now start dividing countries into territories as they were 100 years ago... 200... or 1000. Not a single country will remain within the same borders.
The borders of all countries were once different. There were empires. Kingdoms. Principalities. Empires have fallen. State borders have changed.
Crimea is part of Ukraine by all international rights. If part of the country is occupied only because this part of the territory was once part of another country. No country will remain within its former borders. Crimea was also once Greek, Tatar, etc.

Many countries were once someone's colonies (including such great countries as the USA, Canada, Australia, etc.). But now these are independent countries. And we respect these countries, their people, their freedom and independence. Many territories once belonged first to one country, then to another. And so throughout history they passed from hand to hand. But now there are internationally recognized boundaries that must be observed and respected. Otherwise, the world will continue to exist in an eternal chaos of conquest, occupation and war.

Today one person wrote to me, he left a comment under my tweet about the Ukrainian Carpathians, writing that they once belonged to another country. I didn’t argue with this person, I just sent him to a ban. Although I could give him many arguments in favor of the fact that the Carpathians at one time belonged to the Principality of Galicia (successor to Kyivan Rus). So, what period of history do we start with? Now this is Ukrainian territory

I respect other people’s opinions, I respect freedom of speech, but anyone who encroaches on the territorial integrity of Ukraine by spreading such theses, imitating the Russians, or he will say that some territory or city of Ukraine is part of another country, will be banned without warning.

We respect the borders of other countries. And we don't claim other people's lands. Learn to respect Ukraine and its people. Kyiv existed hundreds of years before the appearance of Moscow and many cities in the world. So you don't need to tell us who we are. Ukrainians have been living on their land for thousands of years.
We are a people with a great and rich history and culture. We are a peaceful and friendly people. But we will not allow us to be humiliated and take away what rightfully belongs to us. Our ancestors sprinkled these lands with their blood.

Russians love to appropriate foreign lands so much. And say that once it was theirs. Can remind them. Whose Kaliningrad? Whose Karelia? Whose Kuriles? And how they themselves were a colony of the Golden Horde for several centuries. And is there anything Russian in Russia at all?

Russia itself is a country of enslaved colonies. Where they made mankurts from other nations. Make them forget their culture and who they are. And is there really such a nation as "russian"? Or it's all just a large enslaved colony.

russia loves to steal foreign culture, land. russians love to appropriate the merits of foreign scientists, famous people. Including Ukrainian ones. In fact, the entire culture and science of russia consists of the merits of people of other nationalities that they stole.

A little bit about the nuclear arsenal.

Let's briefly see if this arsenal is the same myth as the myth of the second army of the world and the "great" russian army.

Nuclear charges, unlike conventional bombs and shells, cannot be put in a warehouse and forgotten until they are needed. The reason is the process constantly going inside nuclear charges, as a result of which the isotopic composition of the charge changes and it degrades quickly.

In russia ,not only has the service life of old Soviet nuclear warheads for missile warheads expired,but there is also no plutonium to make new ones.They cannot be made of old Soviet plutonium,as in it,as well as plutonium in warheads,the isotopic composition has irreversibly changed.

Since the early 1990s, weapons-grade plutonium has ceased to be produced in Russia, the reserves of which need to be changed every 15-20 years for use in missiles. Not changing weapon plutonium in rocket detonators is the same as using wet gunpowder with a pistol.

A few years ago, a retired GRU colonel who inspected the mines said: half of mine-based missiles in Russia will never take off again; and those missiles that take off are likely to fall on the territory of Russia itself or will be shot down by NATO air defense systems.

Undoubtedly, Russia still has warheads that could become a potential threat. I am in no way suggesting that Russia's nuclear arsenal poses no threat at all. As in general, their missile systems, even those that do not carry nuclear weapons, still pose a threat to the world. Unfortunately it is so. But their quantity and quality leave much to be desired. And if you take into account the incredible corruption of the Russian army, many nuclear warheads are in rather poor condition.

Most of the developments were made by the Ukrainian enterprise Yuzhmash, whose specialists played an important role in the program of extending the service life of these missiles before the annexation of Crimea. The fact is that the guaranteed 20-year safe operation period ends.

However,as you know,in 2014, all programs of military cooperation between Ukraine and Russia were terminated.The task was transferred to the State Rocket Makeev,which specializes in ballistic missiles for submarines and has neither sufficient experience nor qualified specialist.

Therefore, in recent years, the extension of the resource of missiles has occurred, as they say, in fact - that is, one or two missiles are fired, the technical condition of the rest is assessed and decides whether to extend the shelf life.

Americans are aware of the state of the Russian nuclear shield. Therefore, the doctrine of "Quick Global Strike" has now been adopted, according to which in order to neutralize 80% of the nuclear potential of the Russian Federation, it is enough to strike four critical points.

In addition, if we are talking about strategic nuclear weapons. We are dealing with a whole chain of commands to run it. Putin himself can't just press the button and launch missiles. Other people participate in this system.
And no matter what kind of people loyal to Putin sit at the command posts. They understand that nuclear war is the end of everything. To them and their families. I don't think they'll want to engage in self-destruction for Putin's sake and for the whim of a madman.

The world must stop being afraid of Russian threats and blackmail. And no matter how crazy and murderous the Russians are. But the instinct of self-preservation will work. They understand that at the first launch of a nuclear missile. They'll get a hundred in return.
Therefore, as I said. Nuclear threats are part of the psychological impact. They are only trying to intimidate. But as we see, some in the world succumb to this blackmail.

If the world continues to show weakness in the face of fascism, terrorism, dictatorship. This will only provoke chains of irreversible events, and untie these criminals' hands.

🧵⬇️

Treaties with Russia are not worth the paper on which they are signed. These liars, hypocrites and murderers will violate all agreements when it is beneficial to them. And the first ones will stab a knife in the back. The Budapest memorandum confirms this.

Ukraine has abandoned the world's 3rd largest nuclear arsenal. In exchange for guarantees of security and territorial integrity from the United States,Great Britain and Russia.And one of the guarantor countries, Russia, cynically and meanly violated all guarantees and agreements

Now think about how the example of Ukraine will affect world security. When the country voluntarily renounced nuclear weapons and was attacked by one of the guarantor countries, to whom Ukraine gave these weapons. Now all countries that want a nuclear arsenal will do it?

Ukraine has abandoned nuclear weapons, the third largest in the world. But in return: we were attacked by one of the "guarantor 🇷🇺" countries. And now we need to constantly ask the second guarantor to give missiles with a range of 300 km to protect ourselves from "guarantors 🇷🇺".

Personally, I am against nuclear weapons and their use in general. There will be no winner in this war. And if you refuse, then everyone. But when countries like Russia, North Korea etc have these weapons, having nuclear weapons as a deterrent against a terrorist nuclear country like Russia is a must. And so that these countries always understand that any use of nuclear weapons by them will receive a mirror response.

Paragraphs of the Budapest Memorandum. In addition to guaranteeing the security and territorial integrity of Ukraine. It has one more point (5). I want to pay special attention to it. According to paragraph 5, after Ukraine's renunciation of nuclear weapons.

The guarantor countries did not have the right to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine, even if Ukraine was the aggressor and attacked one of these countries. The exceptions are if Ukraine has nuclear weapons, or if it does so in alliance with a country that has such weapons.

In any other case, it is prohibited.But what do we see from the terrorist country of🇷🇺? Right.After an act of aggression and attempts at occupation.After violating all international rights and war crimes.They are also simultaneously blackmailing the world with nuclear weapons.

At the same time, Russia, as an aggressor country that violates all international rules. Which invades sovereign states. A country of international terrorism, including nuclear blackmail. Continues to occupy a place in intercity organizations (UN, etc.)

How to distinguish nuclear war from nuclear terrorism?
Nuclear war is when both sides have nuclear weapons.
Nuclear terrorism.This is when a country renounces nuclear weapons in exchange for guarantees.And then this"guarantor 🇷🇺"attacks with war and blackmails with this very weapon.

What are the main actions Russia is currently taking in the information space:

1. Large-scale bot attacks. Whatever the owners of social networks say about this phenomenon regarding their fight against bots. This problem remains relevant to this day. The screenshot below is just one example of how Russians have recently begun sending out their propaganda en masse through bots. There are also several examples of how bots and pro-Russian puppets write and spam the same text from different accounts.

Russia invests a lot of money in its propaganda and spreading its narratives around the world. And it uses various mechanisms for this.

(🧵⬇️ thread)

2. They try to limit and block the Ukrainian context as much as possible. This is also done by individual owners of social networks, who themselves often spread Russian narratives and propaganda. In parallel, it is very beneficial for Russia to distract the world’s attention from the war in Ukraine with other events in the world. Which is what she is using now. Therefore, social networks are filled as much as possible with various information that would distract people from the war between Ukraine and Russia. I am in no way trying to say that there should be no other information in the news other than the war in Ukraine. And that other events may not be so important. No. I'm just saying that Russia is using all this for its own purposes. Trying as much as possible to divert attention from Ukraine.

3.Maximum propaganda aimed at external audiences. The Russians have long zombified their internal population. And now he invests as much as possible in promoting his propaganda in other countries. Through their puppets around the world. In the first months of the war, many people in support of Ukraine fought against Russian propaganda and disinformation. But now, unfortunately, many are tired of the war and have reduced their activity in the information field. Many independent military analysts and military observers with a huge audience simply deleted their accounts on X. Although now, more than ever, Ukraine needs help in the fight against Russian propaganda.
