@Mariana_Betsa

When #RussianWorld #RusskiyMir comes to you, your life gets destroyed, and everything you loved gets smashed. See what the Russians brought to Ukraine.
1: Bakhmut.
(This THREAD was inspired by @Mariana_Betsa's comparison of Mariupol before and after #RusskiyMirMeansDeath came)

@Mariana_Betsa

@Mariana_Betsa 2. Sevyerodonetsk before and after #RusskiyMir

3. Maryinka is a proof that #RusskiyMirMeansDeath

4. Chernihiv is a city with over 1000 years of history, and a touristic magnet with all its ancient churches, and beautiful Desna river. I stayed in this hotel "Ukraine" with my colleagues in 2015, and later many times with my kids or alone. #RusskiyMirMeansDeath

5. This hotel in Zaporizhzhya was built with much passion and addressed those guests who wanted to celebrate weddings or other special days with family and friends. Of course #RusskiyMirMeansDeath could not tolerate it.

6. Svyatohirska Monastery was a saint place for hundreds of thousands of Russian-speaking members of the Russian Orthodox Church. But #RusskiyMir is about unlimited violence, not about faith. They destroyed even the places they called "sacred". Because #RusskiyMirMeansDeath

7. Mariupol was a blooming city on the Sea of Azov. Not anymore. #RusskiyMir #RusskiyMirMeansDeath

8. Izyum was a city #RusskiyMir kept under occupation for several months. I visited it after the liberation with a batch of humanitarian help, and recorded my impressions in this thread:

9. This is the essential point one needs to know about #RusskiyMir. It is about domination through unlimited violence. First moral violence, and if it does not work - physical violence. That is why the Russians love to threaten the world with their nukes. In their phantasies...

@cepa

10. ...the Russians love to dream about how they will annihilate the world with the nukes. Last year, I wrote a piece for @cepa about how the Russians composed children songs about the nukes, and believed in spiritual power of the nukes. It is #RusskiyMir
cepa.org/article/how-ru…

11. So it is not a surprise when Putin delivers his nukes to Lukashenka, or when Medvedev posts his threats on Telegram dreaming on annihilating The Hague. It is the only way of communication #RusskiyMir developed: threats, violence, death. Because #RusskiyMirMeansDeath.

Germany's intelligence agency BfV says, islamist terrorists had entered Germany under cover of Ukrainian passports, pretending to be Ukrainian refugees. These terrorists can attack soft targets amid the EURO football cup. Most probably, this is a Russia-run operation. THREAD: /1

Amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Russia has seized thousands of authentic Ukrainian passports. The seizure was so massive, even Russian private persons were selling Ukrainian passports online stressing that this helps to enter the EU. Of course, the GRU used them too. /2

It is clear, that Russian intelligence services have infiltrated a lot of agents into the EU under cover of "Russian oppositional refugees" but also "Ukrainian refugees". It is also clear that Russian intelligence actively uses fake flag attacks, including "islamist attacks". /3

The Ukraine-US security agreement is not a mutual defense agreement (see the title). It's a security agreement, and as such, it creates very broad fundament for cooperation in all possible fields: from intelligence to weapons development. Let me elaborate in this short THREAD: /1

The mutual defense mechanisms are clearly linked to the NATO future of Ukraine, as reaffirmed in the Preamble. The same Preamble stresses the goal of restoration of Ukraine's full control of its territory and a right for self-defence in accordance to the Art. 51 UN Charter. /2

The aims of the Agreement themselves are not of the mutual defense character though, but linked to a broad number of cooperation areas. It foresees extensive exchange of intelligence information, cooperation in area of army modernisation, arms development, reforms, training... /3

Social Democrats' top candidate for the European Parliament @katarinabarley enjoys a clear parallel to "Catharine the Great" ('Katarina die Große' in German), a Russian tyrant of German origin, @EFDavies points out. Putin's Merkel was also Catharine-obsessed. More in this THREAD:

Catharine II, self-named "the Great", was a Russian-German tyrant. Catharine was a murderer, usurper and authored the the most cruel slavery laws for Russia. She was also admired by both Angela Merkel, who had her portrait on her table, and Putin. /2
faz.net/aktuell/feuill…

Catherine came to power after having killed her husband, Peter III. She usurped the throne and was seen by the aristocracy as an illegitimate ruler. That is why she has done everything to please the aristocracy. She has wiped out any right of serves they had in serfdom system. /3

Ok, I observe Varwick at a panel discussion in Hamburg (will debate with him later today). Within the first 30 minutes, he manages to say that:

1) Russia has legitimate security interests, and the West hat massive violated these interests;
2) There is nothing bad in German economic cooperation with Russian high-tech companies which develop surveillance device in Russia, because economy. International trade with dictatorships is necessary. Otherwise Russia buys it from China anyway;
3) NATO with all its 10-times higher military resources comes closer to Russia's borders, "invaded Kosovo against Russia's will", bombarded Lybia etc.

And this looks to be just an appetiser.

4) praised Nord Stream 2 as a tool of mutual dependencies and improved climate policy;
5) smears opponents as "activists" and names himself an expert and a scientist;

Allegedly, some Germans are afraid, someone (who?) tries to forbid them reading Pushkin. I tell you: if there is nothing scary around, a German would invent a scare crow to be scared. A sort of masturbation on fear.
PS The guy says he supported Anna Netrebko’s performance in GER

A destruction of a multi-storeys building in Russia-controlled #Bilhorod (#Belgorod) could not be a Ukrainian hit. It is either a Russian attack (deliberately or not), or a Russian false flag operation (most probably). Let me elaborate on this. THREAD:

1) This could not be a Ukrainian attack. Until now, Ukrainians have not attacked civilian buildings in Russia. If it was a missile or a dropped bomb, it came from the north-east, i.e. from deeper Russia's territory. For the same reason, it was not "a 🇺🇦 intercepted missile". /2

1.1) Russia has a long history of accidentally bombing own territory. As Russia uses hundreds of bombs DAILY bombing Ukraine, and these are improvised glided bombs of bad quality, some of them occasionally fall on Russian cities and villages close to the border, incl. Belgorod /3
