Ну вот и бунт. Движение по пути тотального краха уверенное, строго по плану.
Слово "бунт" я бы взял в кавычки. Пока что сильно смахивает на хорошо отрепетированный спектакль. Говорят, что Пригожин теперь экскомьюникадо, а потом ещё будет дуэль с Шойгу на табельных парабеллумах.  |

Interesting things happening in Russia today. Seems that conflict between Prigozhin and Ministry of Defense reached new level. Prigozhin accused Russian army for carying out strike against Wagner camp and result of it - ''huge number of cusalties. FSB already started criminal case against Prigozhin. Here is short summary of all his statements today: https://meduza.io/en/feature/2023/06/23/wagner-s-march-of-justiceGeneral Surovikin made video statement with riffle in his hands, asking Prigozhin and Wagner to stop what they're doing https://t.me/rusbrief/129028Meanwhile armored vehicles were noticed in Rostov and Moscow. And seems that they started blocking roads in Rostov: https://t.me/news161ru/33631I have no idea how everything will end, maybe this story will have boring outcome, but my popcorn is ready. As soon as I start to get bored, there is a sudden new plot twist in this story. Whoever wrote this script has a good talent for keeping the audience's attention. |

The citizens of Russia seem quite interested in the new plot twist in this story, even those who have long ceased to follow the developments in Ukraine and live their normal lives. For the townsfolk, it looks like some kind of fucking circus - nothing is clear, but very interesting. |

You missed that fast and far are different things. The Iranian Shaheed-136 flies slowly, but its flight range is well over 300 kilometers. Ukraine does not have long-range missiles, but it has its own developments in the field of aircraft-type kamikaze drones.
In the context of missiles, they need to be fast to reach far and pass air defenses and avoid detection. But you have a good point in the UAV scene, however the same thing I said above applies here: lack of technology. It's one thing to produce drone parts (like the engine for TB2 drones), it's another thing to manufacture a whole loitering munition with long range. Something like Shahed-136 sounds simple on paper, but it is very complicated. For example ~3 months ago Turkey released their "copy" of Shahed-136 called Azab which looks more like a Chinese ripoff. Even though I haven't seen any videos of it to see if it can even flying, from the pictures we can clearly see that it lacks many of the Shahed-136 characteristics specially in guidance system and the launch system and possibly the landing gear. This is while Turkey has a more advanced drone industry compared to Ukraine and is not at war. We are talking about an aircraft that has to (1) fly on its own for a long time and in a long distance to reach its target thousands of kilometers far (2) avoid detection by radars, electro-optical and optical detection apart from on the ground observers (3) not be shot down easily by enemy defenses (4) and not be jammed by electronic/cyber warfare defenses in the enemy territory (5) reach its destination then choose the target on its own (hint mandatory A.I.) then dive in to (6) hit the bullseye because these loitering munitions don't carry big warheads they must be extremely accurate otherwise it's gonna miss making the whole thing useless. These are some of the serious challenges off the top of my head. It requires a leap in technology of what I know Ukraine already has. For example there are loads of quad-copters in Ukraine army. That tech is not extrapolatable! There is AeroDrone that used to manufacture crop-dusting drones that can travel far and carry heavy loads and they have been cooperating with the army but their products were not built as a munition so they lack features number 2, 3, specially 4 and 5 and 6. All the other drones I could find that were indigenously manufactured in Ukraine (Leleka, Punisher , Spectator-M1, ...) are all very short range drones (50 to 200 km) and are mostly for reconnaissance. Considering that all the drones West has sold Ukraine also fall under the same short range category (Warmate-200 km, Switchblade-10 km, Phoenix Ghost-40 km, ...) I don't think West is going to sell the technology to Ukraine either. long-range UAVs, which are already effectively tested in combat, striking deep into the territory of the aggressor, with a distance of 600 km from the borders, and much more !
600 km is categorized as medium range and it is not "deep". Long range which is "deep" starts basically at a thousand kilometers and above (usually around 10 km though). But could you tell us the name of this "long-range" UAV so we can research it? As an example of a Ukrainian-made long-range aircraft-type drone, I can cite the Ukrjet's UJ-22 Airborne, which, in a strike version with two 82-mm mines, has a range of 800 kilometers. There is also a Skyeton ACS-3 drone with a 5kg payload and a maximum range of 1000km. For Kyiv, the issue of having sufficiently long-range attack drones of its own production is of fundamental importance, because Western sponsors do not allow the use of weapons supplied by them on the "mainland" of Russia. |

I have said that Stoltenberg wants the world to become militarised, not that NATO wants it. Certainly the allies of US do not all think in the same way.
Slow down, I'm taking notes. The opinion of the NATO Secretary General does not coincide with the opinion of NATO, okay, I understand. Apparently this is from the same series as a day after Blinken's peacekeeping visit to China, Biden called Xi an incompetent dictator, which caused a stupor in the presidential administration, which immediately tried to dissociate itself from Biden's words, saying that this was just his private opinion lol. |

The thing that I find a little odd is the open hypocrisy. France, a NATO nation, and one that is strongly in favor of the sanctions against Russia, wants to join BRICS, a financial organization that is strongly led by Russia? Does anything in the world make sense anymore?  France did not apply to join the BRICS, Macron simply called the President of South Africa and asked for permission to attend the BRICS summit, which will be held in August this year. The Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia today spoke out strongly against it, so I think that Macron will not receive an invitation to the summit. The President of France is a political corpse for a number of reasons, but I can name two of them. He is a political corpse in the domestic political arena because he approved a law to raise the retirement age bypassing Parliament, which caused mass protests and riots in France. And he is also a political corpse in the foreign policy arena because he leaked to the press a private telephone conversation with the President of Russia. It is interesting that there was nothing reprehensible in the content of that conversation, but the very fact of the leak put an end to Macron as a trustworthy person. |

Sorry Branko, the Patriots probably did not know they were hypersonic when they took them down. You must send an email to the Pentagon and write a poem telling them they cannot take them down.
The combat abilities of the Patriot are greatly exaggerated. Patriot's only accomplishments in the US Army were two friendly fire incidents in Iraq in 2003, when Patriot shot down one British and one American aircraft. Later, Israel shot down a couple more planes from the Patriot in Syria, and this is where all the combat achievements of the Patriot in the entire history of its existence actually end. The United States has never had good mobile air defense systems, because for the United States this is not a priority. ... ... If you are referring to Peskov's recent statement, then I think it is mainly aimed at preparing the Russian society for the speedy completion of the special operation in Ukraine. And yes, in the issue of demilitarization, Russia has achieved very significant success, and not only in the demilitarization of Ukraine, but of the whole of Europe. Stoltenberg said today that NATO arsenals are empty because of military aid to Ukraine. US tends to actually do the opposite: typically the declared capabilities of most of their equipment are lower than they actually are. Also there is a great echo chamber for anything that may make the US army look too expensive, prone to mistakes and mismanagement of money. All of those have some truth, but mostly are similar to the "abilities" of the RF, Japan and even Germany. Practice is the criterion of truth. And from the point of view of real practical success, the Patriot air defense system is the weakest in its class. Ukrainians need to understand this so that there are no unnecessary disappointments from inflated expectations regarding the level of protection of Kyiv from air threats. Stoltenberg wants the world to become militarised and that happens when the budget reaches more than 2%. That is his goal, and that is the why of his words.
It's good that you understand what Stoltenberg wants and what NATO wants. It is possible that RF wants to "close" the operation, that does not mean it will finish. As the saying goes, you know how a war starts, but you do not know when and how it ends.
I don't think that Russia wants to "close" the operation, and even if it does, it cannot be done unilaterally. In such cases, one has to take into account the opinions of all interested parties, and Ukraine and the collective West that supports it apparently continue to want the conflict to continue and "consistently go up the escalation ladder." There are rumors that Mihailo Podoliak is next.
Don't want to disappoint you, but Budanov is alive, he is doing fine and sending some greetings: https://t.me/joker_ukr/8386Podolyak is next? Maybe, but this joke was fun first two times, now it's getting boring. Have I joked about Podolyak before? Rumors about Budanov's injury were not groundless. At the end of May, Russia launched a missile attack on the GUR building and on the same day Budanov disappeared from the media space, although before that he had willingly given interviews on a wide variety of topics almost daily. Then one of Budanov's subordinates, refuting the rumors about his injury, for some reason mentioned his "good appetite", as they usually say about the sick or wounded. After his appearance on the air after three weeks of absence, Budanov looks a little strange. When will you z-tards realize that one person, be it Zelensky, Zalunzhny, Budanov, heck even all three of them don't matter that match in the grand scheme of things. Had any of them (or all three) died, another person would take their place and Ukrainians would have one more reason to fight.
But hey, if it makes it easier for you to sleep at night hugging Putin-shaped pillow and whispering "deep fake deep fake deep fake" - have at it.
I think nothing threatens Zelensky's health and life from Russia. Former Israeli Prime Minister Bennet at a meeting in Sochi asked Putin not to kill Zelensky, and he gave him his word. After that, Zelensky stopped hiding in the bunker and even occasionally appears in the immediate vicinity of the front line. Apparently Putin's word is the best talisman. As for the rest of the media people in Ukraine, there was no agreement. I think that all people known for their public calls to kill Russians, such as Podolyak, Budanov, Danilov, Yermak and many others, are on the short list for targeted denazification and they have no one to blame for this except their long tongue. What if my assumptions about the inherent defect in the training of NATO instructors are not true and the lack of coordination is primarily due to the effective work of Russian electronic warfare? In addition to Bradley, to compensate for losses, the US emergency aid package presented by Blinken also includes secure communications. I also saw fresh announcements of urgent deliveries from Europe of minesweepers to replace those lost in the first days of the counteroffensive and a large number of air defense missiles. It seems that this is exactly what the Armed Forces of Ukraine need now, if not to break through the Surovikin line, then at least get closer to it and organize concentrated pressure. Let's see.
Rational considerations for sure. Speaking of Surovikin, I consider him the real hero of the whole effort from the Russian side. He chronically impresses me and although military history isn't one of my main interests, his performance matches that of any commander/planner/analyst I can think of off-hand. Dima's recent post is illustrative of the kinds of traps I'm guessing are all over the place...if the Ukrainians can get that far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PSpHyarlJEI cannot classify myself as a fan of Surovikin's military talent, in my opinion his methods of adherence to brute force are too inelegant, although often very effective. Surovikin gets carte blanche if a positive result is important, in this he really has few equals. The "Butcher of Aleppo" is a real chain dog of war, it was he who developed the operation "Bakhmut Meat Grinder" for Wagner. |

It seems that the picture is becoming clearer. To begin with, let me remind you that not a single Chinese official has the right to make an open statement that has not been agreed with Beijing. Beijing itself, at the highest level, rarely speaks openly and concretely - that's what its politicians, officials, and the media say.
And then interesting statements began, the "first sign": "The military image and authority of Russia in the eyes of China collapsed."
I am sure that in the next 2-3 weeks we will hear many more such statements.
I have long said that the China-Taiwan (USA) conflict is likely to end in a soft and comfortable solution. Mutually beneficial. The US will make concessions and China will be satisfied with the "return of Taiwan", Taiwan will receive a fairly wide autonomy and even retain elements of independence and the right to choose "with whom to be friends and with whom to conduct business relations." But at that time I did not understand what concessions China would make. As events show - China "merges" Russia. He does not need this burden, Russia. More precisely, the land is needed, and apparently China is counting on them in the short term. But China no longer intends to mess around in "friendship with Russia"!
Now the cards are stacked.
The two poles of the bipolar world met and agreed, a compromise has been found!
Can you provide a prooflink to the quote you cited? Or is it a figment of your imagination again? I was only able to find Blinken's statement on the results of his visit to China, and the essence of it is this: we have many disagreements, but the very fact of my visit and that I was not sent to hell is a promising start to search for common ground between the United States and China. It is ridiculous to read such statements from a person whose favorite news is the inscriptions on the fence and the gossip of the outcasts in front of the entrance, or "the opinion of the world-famous expert on all matters", whose name no one knows!

Щас то расклад сил стал получше или опять не равные? Может уже пора того, безусловно капитулировать? "До последнего украинца" ещё далеко. И муриканские оружейные компании ещё не всю запланированную прибыль от этой заварушки на Украине получили. Так что Бидон пока что капитулировать им не разрешит Я думаю в ближайшее время следует ожидать классический трюк по скоростному переобуванию в прыжке в исполнении США. На самом деле американцы тупо пожадничали, отличный момент для Украины отпрыгнуть в сторону с относительно минимальными потерями был прямо перед объявлением частичной мобилизации осенью прошлого года, после отхода из Херсона и факапа под Изюмом. Опытные криптаны в курске, что в момент всеобщей эйфории на рынке нужно не увеличивать позицию, а активно фиксировать профит. В тот момент США могли начать активно навязывать России возобновление мирных переговоров и переобуться из нагнетателя напряжённости в гегемона-миротворца. Путину пришлось бы конечно отказаться и продолжить гнуть свою линию, и потерять очки в глазах Индии и Китая, которые на деле поддерживают Россию, но на словах достаточно активно топят за миру мир. У американских оружейных компаний уже всё в шоколаде, все заводы работают на пределе мощности, заказов со всего мира на несколько лет вперёд. А финишная предвыборная прямая уже всё ближе и выходить на неё с незавершённым военным конфликтом для демократов слишком большой риск, у Байдена щас рейтинг в США поди уже меньше, чем рейтинг Путина в тех же США. А отдавать власть республиканцам - это фиаско для всей глобалистической повестки. По большому гамбургскому счёту все свои задачи от этого конфликта США уже выполнили - загнали Европу в самую натуральную жопу. Конечно было бы вобще заебись нанести России унизительное военное поражение на Украине, но даже если не получится для США ничего страшного. Виноватыми объявят конечно саму Украину, дескать мы вам так сильно помогали, а вы оказались абсолютно недееспособными ебланами, надо было лучше стараться. |

Communism is bad, and by proxy that also makes China an adversary for the U.S. Whether people might agree with that or not might vary, fine. But if the U.S. has interest in ensuring they get their chips manufactured from Taiwan independent from Chinese intervention, then it would also be in their interest to reject the One China policy. China was never actually blocked from manufacturing their own chips.
TSMC is building two chip factories in Arizona, the first one should be operational in 2024, the second in 2026. For TSMC, building factories in the US does not make any economic sense (it costs about four times more to build a plant in the US than in Taiwan, plus you have to compete for qualified personnel with Intel and pay employees much more, that is, the cost of chips will also increase) and the decision to build was 100% politically motivated. The founder of TSMC said in 2021 that Taiwan's success cannot be replicated in the US due to a number of reasons. Plus, TSMC already had a bad experience of expansion in the US in the late 1990s. But two factories in Arizona are still under construction, although construction is behind schedule and at significant cost overruns. I think this delay in the construction of the TSMC plants in Arizona is the reason for Blinken's recent visit to the US and a significant change in the course of American rhetoric. China has not been afraid of threats and has not succumbed to provocations, and continues to demonstrate its determination to reunite Taiwan with mainland China. And the United States is extremely unprofitable armed conflict until at least the first TSMC plant in Arizona is operational. Therefore, the US State Department, with its inherent flexibility, seeks to turn weakness into strength and tries to make the most of the circumstances. The good news is that there will be no armed conflict in the Pacific region until at least 2025. |

Если ты не заметил, я Залужному вполне даже можно сказать симпатизирую, он из всей публичной украинской тусовки самый адекватный, а в Генштабе ВСУ совершенно точно самый неглупый, что для генерала вообще большая редкость. .

. Это вдвойне занятно, учитывая что никакой партии военных во главе с Залужным в действительности не существует, но если бы существовала, то вполне реально угрожала бы доминации партии Зеленского на парламентских выборах, если бы их не перенесли с нынешней осени на когда-нибудь потом. Но когда запахло жаренными леопардами, подковёрная предвыборная возня пошла нахуй и Залужный снова теперь главный в Генштабе, сосредоточенно работает с документами, всякого.
Нет, дорогуша. Это значит что вы с leonello-й просто обосрались на вбросах про Залужного.

Только обосрался тут не я и леонелло, а ЦИПСО со своей дебильной операцией режима тишины, потому что украинским пропагандонам молчать категорически никак нельзя - информационный вакуум тут же заполняется фотками подбитых Леопардов и вбросами российских пропагандонов, которые тоже между прочим не зря свой хлеб едят. ЦИПСО хотели панику нагнать, чтобы русские при первом ахтунге побежали прям до Мелитополя, а словили в обратку конкретно деморализующую ВСУ дезу. А сёдня ночью говорят во Львове геранями по зданию СБУ въебали, тоже кипеш был нехилый. Снова врут поди. Разве это называется "взяли город"? Ну серьезно? Вам нужны эти руины, под ними что нефть золото? (хотя я не удивлюсь такой отмазке что там нефти дохуя)
Тут прикол не в том, что взяли город, а в том, что ВСУ при всём желании не смогли его удержать. А под руинами там подвал Артёмовского завода игристых вин и 12 миллионов бутылок шампанского в подарок. Нормальный такой трофейный бонус. |

The Russian economy in the current and subsequent years will directly depend on the situation at the front in Ukraine. And just here, it seems, Russia is in for big problems. The IMF cannot know how further events in this war will develop, and therefore the forecasts for the Russian economy will change more than once even for this year. There is a possibility of deepening internal confrontations and the desire of the regions to secede from the center as independent republics. And in this case, Russia may not even have its own sources of oil and gas. After all, they are given to the center just by distant regions. And without oil and gas, Russia will be a poor and backward country. Well, I've heard that "Russia splits into several countries" BS many times lately. One of the favourite propaganda topics, along with "Putin is dying of cancer", "Russia is running out of rockets" etc etc There are absolutely no signs of any decentralization and separatism in Russia. Can you provide any credible source for this information? Today's Russia is an empire that rests on brutal force and forced subjugation of its indigenous peoples. Therefore, it is quite logical that now these peoples are looking with hope as the central government of Russia is weakening due to defeats in the war in Ukraine. But now the regions are beginning to raise their heads. Representatives of Koenigsberg (Kaliningrad region), Ingria (St. Petersburg), the Urals (Yekaterinburg), Siberia (Novosibirsk) and Kuban (Krasnodar Territory) said they want to get rid of territorial, political and economic dependence on Moscow. This was stated by the representatives of the initiative groups during the Post-Russia Forum, which took place in the premises of the European Parliament on the evening of January 30. On May 12, a press conference was held in Warsaw to sum up the results of the national online referendum for the self-determination of the republics of the Russian Federation. Voting on the independence of five regions of Russia: Koenigsberg (Kaliningrad and the region), Ingria (St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region), Kuban (Krasnodar Territory), Siberia and the Urals took place from February 16 to February 28, 2023. In Chuvashia, Karelia, Belgorod, Novgorod and Voronezh people's republics will also begin referendums for independence. In addition, Ichkeria (Chechnya), Buryatia, Tatarstan, Bashkirstan and other regions, where a liberation movement is already maturing, will also rise in due time.

Please tell me if I missed anything but it seems like Ukraine's reach has always been kept very limited. To be honest I don't see how there can be a leap from subsonic 300 km range to supersonic 3000 km range. Developing the engine alone is a massive and impossible leap.
You missed that fast and far are different things. The Iranian Shaheed-136 flies slowly, but its flight range is well over 300 kilometers. Ukraine does not have long-range missiles, but it has its own developments in the field of aircraft-type kamikaze drones. |

PS Tell me, why is it that the "great USSR" and the same "great Russia" do not trade everything and with everyone for "strong and secure rubles, and not candy wrappers of the US Federal Reserve"? The answer, of course, is on the surface - who adequately needs these worthless candy wrappers of the USSR / Russia! But out of respect for you, as an interesting opponent, in the past, I will listen with genuine interest to your "original" theory! Well, why doesn’t it trade, have you already forgotten how much noise Putin’s statement made in Europe last spring that gas for buyers from unfriendly countries will now be sold for rubles? True, there is a more complex scheme with the automatic exchange of euros for rubles, but it still works today, thanks to this scheme, Gazprombank is not under Western sanctions. With each BRICS country, Russia has a bilateral swap in national currencies, and one side of this swap is the Russian ruble. The problem with switching to trading in rubles is that the ruble is not a freely convertible currency, like the Chinese yuan and the Indian rupee. Another problem is Russia's trade surplus; it is unprofitable for net-exporting countries to trade in their national currency, because it helps to strengthen it. Russia benefits from a weak ruble, while China benefits from a weak yuan. Therefore, your phantom fears that China is trying to replace the dollar with the yuan are absolutely groundless - this is tritely unprofitable for China. But you seem to be too keen on politics or too little versed in economics, although one does not exclude the other. ps I'm not a big fan of conspiracy theories, but this story about "dollar recycling" and how important for US hegemony the exclusivity of the dollar in any oil deals is not a conspiracy theory, but an open secret. |

Ah, the good old dollar supremacy narrative. It's as American as apple pie, isn't it? Certainly, Gaddafi and Saddam challenged the dollar, and yes, they met rather unpleasant ends. What a jolly coincidence, no? Yet, isn't it fascinating how you've painted a panorama where the U.S. is this all-seeing, all-knowing puppet master, controlling the strings of the world economy? Sure, the "dollar recycling" system did give the U.S. quite a stranglehold on the global economic scenario. But claiming that any attempt to break free from the dollar equals a date with destiny in the form of U.S. troops or sanctions is, shall we say, a touch melodramatic?
As for countries like Iran and Venezuela, their economic woes can't simply be reduced to their dollar-defying ambitions. A cocktail of domestic mismanagement, corruption, and political instability had their hands in the cookie jar too. Developing a dollar-independent financial system? Sure, go ahead. Just keep your boots laced and ready for some 'fun' times.
The most ambitious attempt to create a financial system independent of the dollar in recent history is the creation of a single European currency. The euro began to circulate on January 1, 1999, and already in March the Europeans got their portion of some shit in the form of the bombing of Yugoslavia. The current conflict in Ukraine fits into the scheme of the second series of some shit for Europe, because it was actively provoked by the US (and prudently out of the EU UK) organization of the coup in Kiev in 2014. There is no melodrama in this, only business. For the opportunity to continue living with trillions in budget deficits for decades, you can arrange even more shit for your competitors. |

Кстати илоша там что-то про контрнаступ пизданул. Вроде говорит провал это. Не слышали?  Не пизданул, а просто поддакнул. Пока ещё не полный провал, но явно всё пошло не по плану. Говорят, что дескать ваще не оправдала надежд операция центра психологических операций с нагнетанием паники и многозначительным молчанием в эфире. Ещё говорят, что Залужный не так уж сильно то и контужен, просто Зеленский хотел присвоить себе все лавры в случае успешного контрнаступа и вежливо попросил Залужного временно покинуть информационное поле, а то у того и так уже рейтинг популярности подозрительно зашкаливает и по соцопросам партия военных во главе с Залужным на втором месте после слуг народа во главе с Зеленским и разрыв сокращается. Это вдвойне занятно, учитывая что никакой партии военных во главе с Залужным в действительности не существует, но если бы существовала, то вполне реально угрожала бы доминации партии Зеленского на парламентских выборах, если бы их не перенесли с нынешней осени на когда-нибудь потом. Но когда запахло жаренными леопардами, подковёрная предвыборная возня пошла нахуй и Залужный снова теперь главный в Генштабе, сосредоточенно работает с документами, в смысле задумчиво смотрит на карты и видимо отлично понимает, что его хотят сделать крайним за предстоящий факап и как со всем этим жить теперь дальше. Особо умиляет распечатанная на принтере дата в рамочке на стене, чтобы никто не подумал, что видео не первой свежести. В том что факап с контрнаступом стремительно назревает, кажется не сомневаются уже даже самые упоротые. Прорвать линию обороны чёто не получается и даже особо не получается просто к ней хотя бы приблизиться, а потрачено времени, сил, бронетехники, снарядов и жизней уже изрядно. Прорыв обороны он ведь не самоцель, в организованный прорыв нужно бросать всякие стратегические резервы, а пока стратегические резервы тратятся на безуспешную организацию прорыва и такими темпами скоро даже в случае успеха по прорыву бросать в него будет уже особо нечего. Короче ВСУ нужен или внезапный ход конём или будет "Галя, у нас отмена". Я верю в стратегический талант Залужного, но шансов у него конечно мало, для Украины ситуация близка к критической. Кажется уже вполне подходящий момент для всяких подлых провокаций в стиле атаки с фланга баивыми малярийными комарами, вспышки холеры на болотах херсонщины или ещё чего похуже типа теракта с грязной бомбой из радиоактивных отходов. От этих ушлых пидорасов можно ожидать всякого. |

The Kremlin's lapdog will say whatever the feeding hand tells him to say. Apparently he didn't notice the conflict either, so his suggestion is a waste of time, right? There are nuances here, though. He probably really did not hear the work of the air defense, because : 1. The entire delegation of "Kremlin dogs" was sent to the bomb shelter. Ukraine is not covered by a "human shield" as they used to do in Russia. 2. The air defense system does not work "in the center of Kiev", its positions are in other places. I recommend studying how air defense sectors are formed to protect an object like a city. 3. 3-5 minutes before the first "arrival" in the direction of Kiev, a warning system went off all over Kiev, notifications and a call to move to bomb shelters and special protected facilities were sent to the cell phones of those who are geographically in Kiev. In 3-4 km from my window, there was one shooting down which is fixed on a photo and video, from my window you can see the traces of air defense systems and be.open tells me, after reading an incomprehensible post, that nothing happened in Kiev, where I live and am physically present )))) But be.open, realizing that all his "knowledge" is nonsense, decided to go the way of the classic representative of the Russian world: - deny everything that is unpleasant, and the facts - we invent everything that is pleasant and gives "greatness". And pass off as the only truth be.open - well whence such sharp degradation of arguments and thinking? I even feel sorry for you. You have ceased to be an interesting opponent for dialogue, and have become a primitive translator of lies... By the way the propaganda media of Russia, confirm the shelling of Kiev on June 16, 2023, i.e. yesterday... https://russian.rt.com/ussr/news/1163126-vsu-reshenie-rossiyahttps://ria.ru/20230617/spetsooperatsiya-1878872630.htmlhttps://riamo.ru/article/649446/minoborony-vs-rf-nanesli-gruppovoj-udar-po-odnomu-iz-tsentrov-prinyatiya-reshenij-vsuhttps://vz.ru/news/2023/2/17/1199493.htmlConsidering that there were no more arrivals and damage anywhere else, and the decision-making centers are in Kiev - you look very very stupid right now... Do you really like looking so stupid? : ) Judging by the bravado of the RosSMI , with the usual false assertion "all set targets have been hit", they destroyed General Zaluzhny 5 times Regarding "only at night" - yes, I confirm, it is so. Only at night, only on sleeping civilians, ONLY in dwellings. I've seen it all in Kiev... But I haven't seen or heard of any attacks on headquarters, military units or other military facilities. I haven't heard or seen it, and my friends who are now in Kiev units can't confirm that anything "flew" to them either. So yes - the most vile, despicable, cowardly kind of terrorism is Russian terrorism - cynical murder of peaceful citizens of Ukraine... I confirm it as a resident of Kiev, a direct participant of the events By the way, I noticed a complete historical coincidence between Soviet propaganda and modern Russian propaganda. 1939, the USSR attacked the small independent Finland. Red Army planes bomb the peaceful city of Helsinki... "On the same day Soviet aircraft bombed and machine-gunned Helsinki; mostly residential working-class neighborhoods were damaged. In response to protests by European diplomats, Molotov claimed that Soviet planes were dropping bread on Helsinki for the starving population (after which Soviet bombs became known in Finland as 'Molotov bread baskets')." USSR/Russia = lies, terrorism, meanness, cowardice. Shown in 1939, proven in 2023 ! You saw the air raid alert that the Ukrainians launched in Kiev and you saw the launch of anti-aircraft missiles that the Ukrainians launched in Kiev, but where are the photos and videos of the terrible destruction from Russian missiles in Kiev, or even photos of the downed wreckage of Russian missiles? If Russia had really launched rockets into Kyiv during the visit of the African delegation, photo and video evidence of this attack would have instantly scattered around the world, replicated by all news agencies. But, they are not. Decision-making centers are located not only in Kyiv, although I understand that for you, as a resident of Kyiv, this thought may be a little unpleasant. Zelensky staged a uniform farce during the visit of the African delegation, whose members you, as a real Nazi, do not even seem to consider people. The Kremlin's lapdog, really? ps I will give you good advice - do not disgrace yourself more about this. As the saying goes, if you're in a hole, stop digging first. |
