2022-06-14 09:02:32 Yesterday #Donetsk was shelled as it had never been before. Terrible record of 300+ missile and artillery rounds targeted civilian quarters, markets, hospitals.

The was one simple reason for it. There’s a need to regain trust that Zelensky can actually get a win of some sort in this conflict.

Against the growing fatigue of the public, the political circles of the West have been increasingly floating the notion that #Ukraine will not get back to «status quo ante» February, 24. Even hawks like NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg conceded that Kiev will have to part with some of its territory.

The situation indeed has been resolved on the battlefield as they prophesied a couple of months ago. But it doesn’t go the way NATO and EU chiefs were hoping for. Slow but steady advance of the Russian and allied troops worsen negotiation positions for Kiev week by week. Senseless shelling of the civilians in Donetsk will hence not achieve the goal Zelensky might have hoped for.

2022-06-11 12:39:38 With new political and economic managers from Russia in the governments of Donetsk and Luhansk, Russian passports and sim-cards of the Russian mobile operators being issued to people from Kherson to Melitopol, the trend towards their integration to Russia is becoming increasingly irreversible.

Representatives of the local authorities are saying that’s what the people want. Sociology is scarce in the areas. But the people will surely have an opportunity to have their say.

Truth may bite, but If you want to be Europe, you have to ‘walk’ like Europeans.

2022-06-02 22:29:10 Former President, Deputy Chair of Russia’s Security Council Dmitry Medvedev states that Russia is aspiring creation of a new non-America centered world order in the aftermath of the operation in #Ukraine.

Although surely pleasing to those in Russia who are currently afraid that the results may fall short of their expectations, such goal setting would most likely lead to a WW3.
