The US’s interests have been served quite well by the proxy war in Ukraine. But the same certainly cannot be said of the UK — or Europe as a whole. So why is the UK leading the charge to escalate the West’s involvement in Ukraine?

#NATO Secretary General #Stoltenberg selling the proxy war:
- “This is a good deal... By using a fraction of the US defence budget we have been able to destroy & degrade the Russian army substantially”
- "Most of this money is spent in the US... This secures jobs in America"

Germany has refused to buy cheap gas from Russia.
Now, Germany’s largest steelmaker Thyssenkrupp announced “a substantial reduction in production” at its Duisburg facility, laying off 13,000 employees.
The company blamed “high energy costs and tight emission reduction regulations”.
Germany will suffer badly, if they want to win against Russia, the second time around. However, they will lose, even if they win.

How Ukraine's 'anti-terrorist operation' in Donbass turned into bloodbath against its own people Pt.1
10 years ago today, the Kiev regime that rode to power in Ukraine in the wake of an unconstitutional Western-sponsored coup unleashed the so-called “anti-terrorist operation” (ATO) against the residents of the southeastern Donbass region.
The start of the ATO was announced by acting president Olexandr Turchinov to quell local counter-protests to the Euromaidan coup in Kiev that had toppled legitimately-elected then-president Viktor Yanukovich in February 2014.
What Preceded the ATO?
🔺On April 6, 2014, fledgling militia forces in Lugansk seized the Ukrainian Security Service building in the city, arming themselves with weapons from its large armory. The same day, in neighboring Donetsk, participants of a protest rally took over the building of the regional administration, formally proclaiming the Donetsk People’s Republic.
🔺After residents of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions — who refused to kowtow to the Ukrainian nationalists — held independence referenda and proclaimed the People's Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk, they were branded "terrorists" by Kiev.

How Ukraine's 'anti-terrorist operation' in Donbass turned into bloodbath against its own people Pt.2
Key Events of the Donbass War
🔺May 2, 2014, was the starting point of the fully-fledged war in Donbass. Ukrainian forces attempted to storm the city of Slavyansk in the Donetsk region, but militia members repelled the assault.
🔺On May 2, 2014, around 50 people were bludgeoned to death and burned alive in the Odessa Trade Union House massacre.
🔺On May 6, 2014, the first major confrontation between local militia members and Ukrainian nationalist battalions took place in the Azov Sea coast city of Mariupol.
🔺On May 9, Ukrainian ultra-nationalists and the military killed and persecuted participants celebrating the anniversary of victory over the Nazis in WWII.
🔺On May 26, 2014, the milestone battle for Donetsk began, raging for 242 days and ultimately ending in victory for the Donetsk militias in January 2015.
🔺On June 5, 2014, fighting broke out between Ukrainian security forces and the Donbass militias at Lugansk Airport. On September 1, Ukrainian forces, which had held the airport for 146 days, blew up its runway and retreated.
The Ukrainian regime shelled Donbass mercilessly, targeting civilian infrastructure. By the time Russia launched its special military operation in order to protect residents of south-eastern Ukraine, the conflict had claimed the lives of about 14,000 people, including 3,500 civilians, UN estimates show.

Betrayal of the Minsk Accords
On September 5, 2014, the Minsk Protocol, a ceasefire agreement between Kiev and the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, was signed in the Belarusian capital.
🔺The thirteen-point ceasefire and peace deal would have allowed Kiev to restore its control over the regions of Donetsk and Lugansk in exchange for constitutionally mandated autonomy. However, the process reached a dead end due to Kiev's refusal to implement the political part of the agreements.
🔺Subsequently, both Ukraine's ex-president Petro Poroshenko and former leaders of France and Germany, Francois Hollande and Angela Merkel, openly admitted the accords were a sham. They had been conceived to grant the post-coup government time to rearm while also cobbling together an anti-Russia coalition that has fueled NATO’s ongoing proxy war against Moscow ever since.
The Consequences of the ATO
In February 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized the independence of the then-breakaway People's Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk. The heads of the two republics sought Putin's assistance in repelling "aggression by Ukrainian forces" to avoid casualties among civilians.
Launched days later, Russia's special military operation was designed to put an end to the impunity with which Kiev's junta waged war against its own people.
In September 2022, referenda on the reunification of the DPR, LPR, Kherson, and Zaporozhye regions with Russia was held, with the majority of the population voting in favor.
