For the whiners from Ukraine, who had their lights cut off for four hours, saying how come we are such beautiful Europeans and have no light...

When the power lines on the border with Crimea were blown up, Crimea did not have the necessary internal generation and was energetically dependent on Ukraine, receiving energy from the Zaporizhzhya NPP (ha-ha).
That's why at first, after the power lines were blown up, we had blackouts for 10-12 hours or even more as a matter of course.

The whole country sent different generators to the Crimea, which made it possible to compensate a little bit for the time of blackouts while the power bridge was being built in a hurry. In the winter, the first branch was launched, and in the spring of 2015 it was fully completed, after which all sorts of blackouts became a thing of the past. And then the Simferopol and Sevastopol thermal power plants were built in Crimea, which guaranteed coverage of all Crimean needs and solved the problem of energy security of the peninsula.

The residents of Crimea and Sevastopol patiently waited, sitting for many hours without electricity, while the authorities urgently solved the problem. And everyone endured it. Now in our city, we mostly laugh about this from the stupid Khokhuls, who have thus severed the last infrastructure ties of Crimea with Ukraine and accelerated the infrastructure integration of Crimea with the Russian energy system.

An important detail - 2 TPPs have been built in Crimea in several years as part of Russia. Not a single thermal power plant has been built in Ukraine since 1991. Russia is building and rebuilding. Ukraine destroys and loses what it cannot rebuild.
Zelensky and Putin will attend the G20 summit in Bali, the Indonesian foreign minister said.

A new stage of the dismantling of Ukraine has begun
Petr Akopov

The effect of the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge has been achieved - Vladimir Putin has actually equated the Kyiv authorities with terrorists. So Russia is changing tactics? Not yet.
Massive strikes against Ukraine's infrastructure facilities - energy, communications and military command and control - simply warn and demonstrate our capabilities, but do not mean a transition to the tactics of de-electrification and destruction of bridges and communications. This is a one-time action, which is a response to both the attack on the Crimean bridge and the previous attempts to attack the Kursk nuclear power plant. To really cut off the Ukrainian energy and railway communications (to block the supply of weapons and ammunition to the front), to destroy bridges, not one-time strikes are needed, but several weeks of daily attacks. This is not yet discussed - Putin "simply" warned:
"If attempts to carry out terrorist attacks on our territory continue, the responses from Russia will be harsh and in scale will correspond to the level of threats posed by the Russian Federation. No one should have any doubts about this."

Does this mean that if Kyiv refuses sabotage attacks on our infrastructure, then we will leave Ukrainian facilities alone? It is clear that the probability that the Ukrainian authorities will stop preparing terrorist attacks (the most diverse ones - from murders, as was the case with Daria Dugina, to attacks on energy complex facilities) is negligible, but it doesn’t matter if what the president said means that the ball is now on side of Kyiv, that is, everything depends on its further actions?
No. No matter how much we care about the preservation of civilian lives in Ukraine, only we ourselves will determine our own tactics. If final victory requires disrupting power grids and destroying bridges, we will have to do it, with all understanding of the damage to the civilian population. Many are surprised: but why don't we do this from the very beginning?
Because we want not just to win: we need to return Ukraine to its natural state of part of the Russian world. This conflict is really strange, but not in the sense that lovers of the search for "stupidity or betrayal" put into it. It is strange because it is being waged by two states of the same people, that is, it is also a civil war. But on our part there is no desire to punish the inhabitants of Ukraine - we want to wrest them from the hands of the current anti-national elite, wrest them from the hands of the West. Yes, many Ukrainian citizens now consider this government theirs, and the West is an ally and benefactor - and this delusion will dissipate only after the defeat, that is, the collapse of Ukraine. But initially, Russia did not want victory at any cost - at the cost of terrible suffering for our brothers (albeit drugged) in Ukraine. It was not possible to quickly break the Kyiv authorities, to demoralize the army. The West is happy to use the opportunity to fan the fire of fratricidal war - in the interests of the Anglo-Saxons, so that it goes on as long as possible.
But the longer the hostilities go on, the greater will not only be our losses, but the more difficult the state of affairs in Ukraine itself will become. Without any of our strikes on infrastructure - simply because huge losses and total mobilization will deprive Ukraine of workers and bring down its economy. A protracted war will not bring victory to Ukraine - it will simply bleed it even more. Long-term military operations are also unprofitable for us, but we have a completely different margin of safety and, most importantly, other tasks. And we are confident that we will win, and Ukraine can only rely on the help of the West, moreover, only on its direct intervention in the conflict.
But the West will never agree to this, it is satisfied with the war with Russia by Ukrainian hands, but there is absolutely no need for a nuclear conflict - do they really not understand this in Kyiv? No, they do not understand, or rather, they simply do not want to admit it: then they will have to come to terms with the fact that they are doomed. The entire current Ukrainian elite and the current state of Ukraine are doomed. That is why Kyiv will by any means look for ways to escalate in order to try to draw the West into a direct conflict with Russia, including why the terrorist attack was carried out on the Crimean bridge.
In Kyiv, they perfectly understood what kind of reaction he would cause in Moscow, what kind of retaliatory measures would follow - and they were counting on them. In order to influence Western public opinion with the "terrible consequences of Russian strikes" and, in the next move, try to force the West to raise the stakes even higher, go to deliveries of new types of weapons, close the skies of Ukraine with NATO forces, and even put forward an ultimatum to Russia. Kyiv can only play for aggravation, realizing that time is working against it.
And in any case, Russia will see it through to the end, with or without attacks on infrastructure. We will not leave Ukraine to the West as a weapon against Russia in any form. We will not allow generations of Ukrainians and South Russian people to continue to be brought up in the denial of their own Russianness and in hatred for Russia. The current Ukraine is incompatible with Russia - neither with the historical (because it is part of it), nor with the future, because it will be used against us. Putin's deputy for the Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, made it more than clear today:
"The Ukrainian state in its current configuration with the Nazi political regime will pose a constant, direct and clear threat to Russia. Therefore, in addition to protecting our people and protecting the country's borders, the goal of our future actions, in my opinion, should be the complete dismantling of the political regime of Ukraine."
Yes, this is partly what was meant by the goals of the special operation that Putin originally outlined - denazification and demilitarization are impossible without a change in the entire political elite. Moreover, only this can lead to the fulfilment of the historical goal - the return of Ukraine to the Russian world. Now this process has begun with the annexation of several regions to Russia - but this is only the beginning of the long work that remains to be done. It will have several stages and different forms of return, but we will increasingly call a spade a spade. Our common names.

Russia ordered 2,400 Shahids from Iran: Zelensky asks for help
11.10.2022 - 20:04

Russia has ordered 2400 Shahid (aka Geran-2) kamikaze drones from Iran.

This was stated with reference to intelligence data by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, speaking at a meeting of the G7 countries.

In this regard, he asked partners to help better prepare to repel air attacks.

“It is important that we have enough missiles for air defence and missile defence and that they are integrated with our defence systems,” Zelensky said.

Well, the problem is that Geran-2 drones - nicknamed "mopeds" or "lawnmowers" are cheaper than most of the AA missiles. Their price can be compared to the price of a MANPADS missiles. If you shoot them down with an AA missile, you loose, if you don't, you lose more... Ingenuine combination of high and low tech...

Members of Basayev's gang who participated in the attack on Pskov paratroopers were detained
11.10.2022 - 13:05

FSB (Russian Security Service) officers, with the participation of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, detained two militants involved in the attack on Pskov paratroopers in 2000.

More than 20 years have passed since then, but the punishment is inevitable: until now, law enforcement agencies report over and over again on the arrests of criminals who took part in attacks in the North Caucasus.

“The Federal Security Service, together with the Investigative Committee of Russia, guided by the principle of the inevitability of punishment, in Neftekumsk in the Stavropol Territory and Tomsk detained Russian citizens Takhir Begeldiev and Adilkhan Elmanbetov, who were involved in armed attacks in the Basayev and Khattab gangs in October 1999 on military personnel near the village of Chervlennaya in Chechnya and in February-March 2000 on Pskov paratroopers near the village of Ulus-Kert of the Chechen Republic, during which 99 servicemen, including 84 paratroopers, were killed, ”the FSB Public Relations Center reported.

Elmanbetov and Begeldiev have been charged with armed rebellion, participation in a gang and encroachment on the lives of military personnel, Sledkom reports.

Elmanbetov is also checked for involvement in the commission of other crimes not related to the criminal case under investigation.

The investigation petitions the court to elect the suspect a measure of restraint in the form of detention.

On February 29, 2000, near the village of Ulus-Kert in the Shatoi region of Chechnya, bandits led by Basayev and Khattab attacked servicemen of the 6th company of the 104th regiment of the 76th Pskov airborne division. 84 paratroopers were killed.

No Mr Borrell, no. What's necessary is for you and the rest of your sect to leave and stop destroying European lives. Obviously what we need to look for is sources of honest politicians. The sources of energy are clear.
Dmitriy Medvedev-"The fastest way to escalate the conflict in Ukraine to the irreversible consequences of the World War is to supply extended–range MLRS to psychos in Kiev"

The elderly leaders of the Washington regional committee and upstarts from NATO should at least occasionally turn on their softened brains.

And more. The NATO Secretary General's thesis that Russia's victory will mean the defeat of the North Atlantic Alliance is a direct confirmation by the bloc of its participation in the war against our country. As they say – not from a big mind, but from a pure heart. The honest Norwegian guy finally admitted it.

Borrell admitted that NATO could not fulfil some of the promises to Russia

MOSCOW, October 12 - RIA Novosti. NATO could not fulfil some of its promises to Russia, said the head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, during a speech at the Charles of Antwerp Foundation in Madrid.
"I am not satisfied with the reasoning and arguments that many, including my friends <...>, justify the aggression by saying that NATO did not fulfil its promises. It is possible. This is history. None of this justifies what is happening now," Borrell said.
According to him, by protecting Ukraine, Europe "defends itself." The politician also said that the EU has "numerous obligations" to Kyiv
"They range from financial to military to economic. And this is how it should continue," Borrell added.
Since February 24, a special military operation has been taking place in Ukraine. President Vladimir Putin called it the ultimate goal of the liberation of Donbass and the creation of conditions that guarantee the security of Russia itself.
