🗣️ On the ineffectiveness of anti-Russian sanctions:

"The assumption in the West was that it [Russia] did not have a high tech base. So as was said by the German foreign minister, I believe, Russia would be scrounging washing machines imported from Germany to get the chips for its military capacity. These kinds of absurdities were part of the mythology, and Russia's high tech capacities were clearly constantly neglected and discounted... This was going to "be it". This was somehow so dramatic, it would decisively end the conflict. Yeah, completely naive," Jeffrey Sachs, a Columbia University economist, told Sputnik.

Russia declares 2 employees of US Embassy personae non gratae

According to the statement, US ambassador to Russia Lynne Tracy was summoned to the ministry on Thursday to receive a strong demarche over actions of Jeffrey Sillin and David Bernstein, the first and the second secretaries of the embassy, which are “incompatible with the diplomatic status.”

🗣 “These persons [Sillin and Berstein] carried out illegal activities by maintaining contact with Russian citizen [Robert] Shonov, accused of ‘confidential cooperation’ with a foreign state. [Shonov] was given tasks with the goal of harming the national security of the Russian Federation for financial compensation. The US ambassador was informed that J. Sillin and D. Bernstein must leave Russian territory within 7 days in the status of persona non grata,” the ministry said.

In the video, Ashton-Cirillo says that "the teeth of the Russian devils will gnash ever harder" and that "their rabid mouths will foam an uncontrollable frenzy."

"I’m sure you hate the truth as well since you’re a man pretending to be a woman," one netizen wrote, with others saying that the video is "Deeply creepy stuff." Some didn't believe that statements were made seriously: "This has to be a parody account. There's no other explanation", "Your new comedy show is wild", "EVERYONE IS LAUGHING AT YOU."

🗣️ On US officials finally calling Ukraine a proxy:

They're finally saying that it's a proxy war now, which is delightfully refreshing after having spent the last year plus being called a tinfoil hat or Putin apologist for merely suggesting that what we are engaged in is a proxy war. We've described the permanent unelected state, the neocons and the military-industrial complex as a death cult. And it operates like one against all reason and against their own best interests even often, they pursue endless war,Steve Poikonen, host of AM WakeUp & SlowNewsDay live on Rokfin & Rumble, told Sputnik.

Ex-Ukrainian Prime Minister accuses Kiev of stealing billions from budget in arms deals

🗣 "According to the most modest estimates, [the Ukrainian authorities] stole more than 100 billion budget hryvnias. The representatives of 'Servant of the People' [ruling party] spent most of the budget money to purchase ammunition. [They] bought old poor-quality stuff at a 'gold price'," Nikolai Azarov wrote on his Telegram channel.

The ex-prime minister said that the same corruption scheme worked in air defense procurement, citing an incident when the authorities signed a contract for four air defense missiles, while in reality there were only three of them. After Russia's missile attacks, all of the four get written off and "someone buys a new apartment in Paris," he added.

🗣️ On the US strategic competitors on the global stage:

Clearly the United States sees Russia, China and Iran as the only competing sovereigns on a global scale, and specifically in its quest to control the waterways of trade in the world and to control Asia as a whole… You cannot trust or turn your back to the Americans. They will be backstabbing you the minute that they feel that they can get away with it,Laith Marouf, a broadcaster and journalist based in Beirut, Lebanon, told Sputnik.
