🇨🇳The Chinese Ambassador to France said on LCI television channel that the issue of Crimea's belonging is "not a simple problem," calling the peninsula "initially russian."

🤕The Chinese ambassador also seems to have significant issues with international law and geography, referring to countries of the "former soviet union" that freed themselves from the "red plague" as having an undefined status.

💭"In international law, the countries of the former soviet union do not have a valid status because there is no international agreement that would materialize their status as a sovereign country," said Lu Shaye.

🇺🇦The Ukrainian ambassador to France responded to these statements on his Twitter page:

💭"Either there are clear problems with geography or such statements contradict Beijing's position 'on efforts to restore peace in Ukraine based on international law and the purposes and principles of the UN Charter,'" wrote Vadym Omelchenko.

👋We would like to send greetings to Lu Shaye from Taiwan and wish him to get the pro-Russian crap out of his mouth, which he has filled his head with, and to coordinate his position with the leadership, which is slightly different in his previous statements on Ukraine. Although it is clear that the Chinese are deceiving everyone for their own benefit.

🇷🇺"russia should simply disintegrate into various small countries," says Estonian Defense Forces Commander General Martin Herem

🇪🇪In an interview with local television Eesti Rahvusringhääling ERR the Estonian Defense Forces Commander shared his thoughts on the desired future development of russia in the context of the russian-Ukrainian war.

💭"I don't see an end to this conflict until russia completely changes. It should no longer be russia. It shouldn't be a large and powerful country that thinks it has the right to do everything. russia should be broken up into small states that will not have so much power and ambition," said Martin Herem.

🧐He also noted that muscovy perceives large losses of human resources as its strength, showing that they have resources and that they can attack and attack. Therefore, there will be no end to the conflict until muscovy changes. And he sees the change of russia in its disintegration.

💭 "The military power of russia is probably greater than we want to believe, its warehouses are full of weapons, and then there is the sheer human mass, which is seemingly endless. One thing is how many of these resources are in various warehouses, towns, and villages all the way to Vladivostok. Another is the standard of losses, which someone considers a tragedy and perceives as a tragedy. We in the West live in the era of post-heroic warfare, where the loss of one person is a tragedy, and then we all discuss it. It seems to me that russia perceives the loss of 500-600 soldiers per day as a sign of strength, that 'we can.' 'We can afford to lose tomorrow; you can't, I can, and I'm going, I'll take what's there anyway.' If this standard remains, it will be very difficult for Ukrainians to stop until the last occupier is destroyed on their territory" <...> "I don't see an end to this conflict until russia completely changes," emphasized the commander.

🇨🇳Nearly 80 European parliamentarians call for declaring China's ambassador to France persona non grata

👥In a joint statement, the parliamentarians appealed to the French Foreign Minister to respond to the ambassador's attacks:

✍️«As Members of Parliament, we are writing to draw your attention to our call on the French government to take action in response to the aggressive statements made on Friday, April 21 at LCI by the Chinese Ambassador to France, Mr.Lu Shaye; statements that clearly violate international law and should be considered a threat to the security of France's European partner countries,» the statement reads.

🫡«At a time when war is raging in Europe, caused by russia's aggression against the territorial integrity of its neighbor Ukraine, it is crucial that the democratic world sends an unequivocal message to authoritarian countries to defend the sovereignty of our allies.»

👤EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell wrote on Twitter that Lu Shaye's remarks were "unacceptable."

🕊«Unacceptable remarks of the Chinese Ambassador to France questioning the sovereignty of the countries which became independent with the end of the Soviet Union in 1991. The EU can only suppose these declarations do not represent China’s official policy.»

🇺🇦🔹Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda: Ukraine's membership will strengthen NATO

🗣«Instead of repeating hackneyed phrases about NATO's open doors, we need to find more concrete mechanisms for Ukraine's rapid integration into NATO after the war,» the Lithuanian leader said during a meeting with journalists.

🇱🇹Nausėda noted that the army's combat experience, which no other European country has, will obviously strengthen the North Atlantic Alliance.

💭«I think it is in the interest of all of us that President Zelenskyy will take part in our discussions. A significant part of the discussions will be devoted to and directly related to Ukraine,» Gitanas emphasized.

📍 deepstatemap.live/en#15/46.5007/32.3557

Situation on the frontlines as of April 24, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — ongoing local battles along the contact line and artillery fire from both sides. The enemy continues to pressure with the goal of displacing Defense Forces from Serebryansky forestry.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — near Bilohorivka (L), the enemy failed to secure some positions. Fighting continues near the road through Khromove. The enemy has partial success beyond the railroad in Bakhmut.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — the enemy has resumed attacks near Novobakhmutivka and captured the former checkpoint "Borci".

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — active artillery exchanges continue.

🗂 Analytical note. The enemy continues to push on many sections of the front. These attempts appear to be searches for weak spots rather than a massive offensive. In Bakhmut, katsaps are pressing the defense, but an update to the Bakhmut combat contact line will not be made yet. With each passing day, holding the city becomes more difficult as the area of control diminishes, giving an advantage to the enemy's low-precision artillery.

⚡️ Alarm for Belarusians

🛡 The State Border Guard Service has published a video where border guards don't let Belarusians relax and play alarm sounds for them.

💭"Such measures are aimed at making neighbors who haven't yet decided which side they are on understand that if the alarm sounds several times during the day and night, it is terrible" — the post says.

🥔Belarusians will be tormented in the areas of the Zhytomyr and Rivne border detachments. Listen up, scum, and get used to it!

Situation on the frontlines as of April 25, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — localized fighting continued along the contact line, with artillery fire from both sides. The enemy continues to pressure with the aim of pushing the Defense Forces out of the Serebryansky forestry.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — the situation in Bakhmut is extremely difficult. On the highway through Khromove - no changes. Information that the enemy has occupied Khromove is fake. However, in the city itself, the enemy has made significant progress along the entire contact line, except for the "aircraft" area. According to preliminary data, the enemy reached the intersection of Yuvileyna and Chaikovskogo streets.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — battles continue west of Novobakhmutivka and in Mariinka.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — active artillery exchanges continue.

🗂 Analytical note. The enemy is gathering reserves and conducting artillery preparations for the final assault on the western part of Bakhmut. It's been hard enough in Bakhmut for the last four months because of the enemy artillery, but due to the reduction of the control zone, this hell has grown many times over. The defenders - soldiers of the Armed Forces, Territorial Defense Forces, State Special Transport Service, Special Operations Forces, State Border Guard Service and others - are doing everything possible to hold out the western part of the city as long as possible, but in the current situation, the main thing is to save the lives of the personnel who have already done everything in their power.

🕯Today the world remembers the Day of the Chernobyl tragedy

❔There are many questions about these events, not even environmental ones, where people complain about the very existence of nuclear power plants, but political ones, primarily about the actions of the red plague authorities.

🧐The events coincided strangely with the depreciation of oil, where the USSR was close to defaulting at a time when the world saw the benefits of nuclear power plants and began massive construction. And it was the accident that postponed the collapse of the Red Terror empire when oil prices went up. A sudden test of the reactor, which was abandoned by a number of other nuclear power plants, and the Leningrad accident showed the danger of such an "experiment." Concealing the disaster to the last, cynically organizing celebrations in the capital, which resulted in the deaths and injuries of many people, especially Ukrainians.

🇷🇺It would seem that this version sounds absurd. But quite recently, every Ukrainian and the whole world saw the actions of a direct descendant of communism, the russians, who seized the Chornobyl NPP in a full-scale invasion in 2022 and threatened a nuclear disaster. We see this at the Zaporizhzhia NPP, as well as in the constant threats of nuclear weapons use.

💩 On this day, it is usual to honor the liquidators of those events who, against all odds, stood up to defend people and went to a battle that they had lost before it even began. Many conclusions have been drawn and should be drawn, but the main one is that the russians have not changed for centuries, neither by methods nor by means, and therefore all of them must be destroyed.
