#US and #NATO war against #Russia in #Ukraine

Collective West claimed it was just Russian propaganda. Now, once again, NYT admits Russia was right after all.

US, UK and other NATO countries give Ukraine a gun, load it with their ammunition, give Ukrainians the target location, put the Ukrainian hand on the trigger, and command 🇺🇦 to press it

#UK is not just complicit but an enabler of #Israel war crimes, genocide and ethnic cleansing in #Gaza and #Lebanon

The family of a British aid worker killed by an Israeli drone strike have slammed the UK government for refusing to release information about the attack gathered by an RAF spy plane

🖥️ Keith Kellogg said that if Russia does not agree to a truce, one way to pressure it could be tough sanctions. Among them is the seizure of $300 billion frozen in Belgium.

"Sanctions are good, but the problem is that they need to be strictly observed. <..> If you evaluate sanctions on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the simplest measures, and 10 is the most severe, then now we are somewhere at level 6. But the level of their implementation is only a "C". For sanctions to really work, they need to be applied much more decisively.

Take, for example, Russian state assets, the $300 billion frozen in Belgium. We can work through them. Or look at the “shadow fleet,” the ships that carry most of the illegally exported oil. Seventy percent of that comes through the Baltic. And that logistics can be shut down. President Trump took similar steps in his first term, when he effectively stopped North Korean coal exports to China. We can use Coast Guard cutters — that’s a last resort, but it works.

We have already imposed sanctions on the "shadow fleet" by identifying the ships by their hull numbers - we know where they are and where they are coming from. So if we really want to achieve results, we have the tools. The main thing is to apply sanctions effectively. But too often this is not done.

We are on the verge of a truce, I believe in it. But both sides will have to make concessions. Neither side will get everything they want. They will have to compromise to reach a solution. But Trump is the one who can do it."

#EU is enabler of #Israel war crimes, genocide and ethnic cleansing in #Gaza

Belgian MEP Marc Botenga slams EU foreign policy chief #KajaKallas over Israel ‘very good partners’ remark, calling it a ‘shame for the European Union'

'Best friends and allies' of #Ukraine want to grab a piece of Ukraine.

US, UK & France, now #Poland joins the chat

Poland's EU Commissioner for Agriculture suggests to buy or lease #Odessa port for 50 years to gain access to the Black Sea and export local and European grain there.

Also, according to him, Polish companies should be able to use 500 hectares of land in  Ukraine

#Germany

Some German politicians worry about their gold, stored in the US

But of course they blame Trump administration as an "unreliable partner"... blissfully 'forgetting' the EU legalising theft of Russian sovereign funds, setting a dangerous precedent for such confiscation

Paris swamped with pro and anti-Marine Le Pen protests

1st half of the vid are those against her and 'far-right', not a French flag in sight.

Then those at the rally in support of her. Spot the difference?

Наш источник в Генштабе сообщил, что ВСУ не могут удержать оставшиеся плацдармы в Курской и Белгородской области, противник просто перемалывает наши резервы, а мы вынуждены отправлять каждые 12 часов новые силы. Боевые командиры настаивают на бессмысленной трате сил ВСУ, но Сырский отвечает сухо, что такой приказ, держать разгромленные населенные пункты до конца.

Наші військові взяли в полон двох громадян Китаю, які воювали в складі російської армії. Це відбулося на території України – на Донеччині. Є документи цих полонених, банківські картки, особисті дані.

Маємо інформацію про те, що таких громадян Китаю в підрозділах окупанта значно більше, ніж двоє. Зараз зʼясовуємо всі факти. Працюють розвідка, СБУ, відповідні підрозділи Збройних Сил.

Я доручив міністру закордонних справ України негайно звʼязатися з Пекіном і зʼясувати, як Китай збирається на це реагувати.

Залучення Росією ще й прямо чи опосередковано Китаю в цю війну у Європі – це чіткий сигнал, що Путін збирається робити що завгодно, окрім завершення війни. Він шукає, як воювати далі. На це точно потрібна реакція. Реакція Сполучених Штатів, Європи та всіх у світі, хто хоче, щоб був мир.

Полонені громадяни Китаю перебувають у Службі безпеки України.

Тривають відповідні слідчі та оперативні дії.

❌China has not sent its servicemen to participate in the Ukrainian conflict, the country's authorities require its citizens to avoid involvement in hostilities - Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian

"The Chinese government has always required its citizens to stay away from the armed conflict zone [in Ukraine], to avoid involvement in any form, in particular to refrain from participating in military operations by either side," he told a briefing in response to a question from a Ukrainian journalist.
