#Russian wishful thinking presents its stance on the global arena as invulnerable. Russian leaders tend to underestimate the negative effects of sanctions or ignore the fact that Russia is becoming a pariah. #UW_InfoWatch #AgainstRussianLies 1/4
They are trying to show an alternative geostrategic power structure, where the West doesn't play any role, but #Russia is in the center of new pole attracting Asian and African states. Is it really so? 2/4
📌Is it possible to create an alternative order in the global world where connections between all the players are too tight?
3/4
📌Maybe it's just a momentum for so-called Russian "friends" gain those long awaited benefits from their "friend", such a cheap gas or oil? To survive in the global world it is important not to live in the world of illusions. 4/4

The story of Tetiana Korchahina, who left Kharkiv with her children. #UkraineWorldTestimony

📅 On 24 February 2022, Tetiana woke up to the sound of explosions and immediately thought, "Oh my God, has it really started?" 1/11
For the previous few days, all she could talk to her friends and family about was the possibility of Russia attacking Ukraine. But it was still hard for Tetiana to believe such savagery could happen in the 21st century. 2/11
She went into her living room to find her husband awake. Soon, the whole street had woken up. There were nonstop📱calls and 💬. Everyone was in shock. Tetiana didn't know what to do, even though she had been packing her go bag for over a week. Her husband insisted on it. 3/11

🏠 The story of Natalie Al Baz, whose family fled a 🇷🇺-occupied village and started a new life in an abandoned house in a small hamlet.

Before the full-scale 🇷🇺 invasion, the family lived in their new house in the village of Tsyrkuny near Kharkiv.

#UkraineWorldTestimony 1/14 Image
On Feb. 24, 2022, the village was occupied, so they evacuated and settled in an abandoned house in a khutir (a small rural settlement).

Natalie is now restoring this house and showing the process of its renovation on her Instagram - instagram.com/khutoraesthetic 2/14
However, Natalie, her husband, and their 5-year-old daughter still had to live the first week of the war under occupation. The fact that they were able to leave was a miracle. 3/14

#Russia is hysterical about the UK's statement about providing #Ukraine with munitions with depleted uranium. Russian leadership keeps shouting about including nuclear component into the war from the NATO side. #UW_InfoWatch #AgainstRussianLies 1/4
They also say about "considerable damage to people and environment because of the radiation". But that's only propaganda. What the munitions with depleted uranium are in fact? They don't have anything to do with nuclear or chemical weapons. 2/4
Such munitions aren't prohibited by the UN and can be found in service with number of countries including #Russia itself (using them on the battlefield). 3/4

How do Ukraine’s 🇺🇦 and Georgia's 🇬🇪 fights for freedom compare to each other?

UkraineWorld spoke to Bakur Kvashilava, Dean of the School of Law and Politics and Professor of International Relations and Comparative Politics.

Key points – in our brief, #UkraineWorldAnalysis 1/11
There are similarities and differences between #Georgian Abkhazia and South Ossetia in 2008 and Ukrainian #Donbas and #Crimea in 2014. 2/11
The similarities are that #Russia was the main driving force for the separatist aspirations of these regions. Russia was instrumental in making these entities successful on the ground and expelling legitimate state authorities from the territories in question. 3/11
