For those who have no alternative sources of information in the West. Such indiscriminate shellings of residential areas in the Donbass by the Ukrainian armed forces take place every day. Dozens are killed, hundreds are wounded. The Western MSM turn a blind eye to these crimes.

Pentagon spokesman Kirby openly admitted that the West has been preparing and supplying the Ukrainian army for combat operations for eight years.

The relentless lying about the alleged success of the Ukrainian military reminds me of the US media’s claims of imminent US victory in Vietnam. Russia now controls all the strategic population centers of the Donbas and will soon control the entire south, landlocking Ukraine.

For decades Sherine Abu Aqleh has been a notable journalist on Al Jazeera reporting the Israeli war crimes against Palestinians. Today the Israeli occupation forces shot her in the head. They killed her. Will Israel be sanctioned? Boycotted? Isolated? Condemned?

Yet another win for Putin! https://theguardian.com/politics/2022/

Mexican President @LopezObrador took a historic trip to Cuba, where he called for an end to the US blockade and criticized right-wing “coup-plotters” AMLO said Latin America should form a union, amid “the economic decline of the United States”

If the Biden admin cared about Syrians, it would pay reparations for the multi-billion¹ dollar dirty war that terrorized the country, withdraw US forces stealing Syria’s resources, and drop the crippling sanctions that are preventing recovery.

Israel, with weapons funded by the U.S, can just kill journalists, kill Palestinians and bomb Syria every other day with impunity, while the U.S ignores their crimes & normalizes & funds fascists in Ukraine, all while making the world hate Russia.

Israeli forces shot Palestinian American Al Jazeera journalist Shereen Abu Akleh in the head today. She was wearing a blue press vest. This is a war crime. Where is the global outrage? Where are the calls for sanctions?

So a new UK security agreement signed with Sweden and Finland would involve Britain providing military assistance if either of the two Nordic countries are attacked, meaning by Russia. This suggests an accelerated application to join NATO is forthcoming, by both nations.

Reality versus political hyperbole

VNG which is Germany’s third-largest gas importer, has opened an account with Gazprombank.

Looking like Kherson Oblast in Ukraine is seeking inclusion into Russian Federation

Michael Tracey@mtracey

Lifestyle brand leftists like AOC, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Cori Bush, etc. are always quick to rattle off the most incendiary rhetoric about various race and gender issues, but on the issue of US military escalation, they’re card-carrying members of the pro-war consensus

More reality versus political hyperbole.

Draghi: Most importers of gas have already opened accounts in rubles with Gazprom.

Macron is the only major “Western” leader who’s consistently proposed steps to marginally reduce the likelihood of catastrophic military conflagration, and he always gets absolutely pilloried for it. Meanwhile the “escalators” like Biden, Johnson, Trudeau, Duda, etc. are praised

One more time today: “Biden announces new $150 million weapons package for Ukraine”

Biden/NATO actions & words make it clear their goal is to cripple Russia economy/military. Russia’s made it clear that if the West gets close to achieving that, they’ll resort to nukes. Biden/NATO have put us on path to nuclear Armageddon. We need to wake up before it’s too late.

Cernovich@Cernovich

All those world leaders keep going to Zelensky to tell him he can’t make peace. This is one of the evilest regimes we’ve been able to see in real time. The West is happy to see Ukraine reduced to rubble to fight a proxy war vs Putin. Using people like chess pieces.

Democrats are a full blown right wing pro-war party. They won’t invest in America but they’ll bankrupt the treasury funneling money to the Military Industrial Complex.

Zelinsky was committed to implementing the Minsk II agreement, which entailed giving the Russian-speaking and the ethnic Russian population in the easternmost part of Ukraine a measure of autonomy. Alas, the far-right in Ukraine did not let him do it, and NATO took over.

Kim Dotcom@KimDotcom

Over 14,000 civilians of Russian ethnicity in the Donbass were killed by US trained Ukrainian forces and the @PentagonPresSec openly boasts that they have armed and trained the Ukrainians for 8 YEARS. Who would have ever expected a Russian response?

George Szamuely@GeorgeSzamuely

Nothing you say here is true. The NATO attack was not mandated by the UN Security Council. And it did lead to a change of borders. Kosovo was detached from Yugoslavia, and then recognized as an independent state, at least by the NATO countries (though not all of them).

1. Here is Article 4 the 1992 treaty between Russia and Finland. The wording would appear to exclude NATO membership, particularly so today when Russia and NATO are in more or less open military conflict. http://heninen.net/sopimus/1992_e

2. Here is Article 4 of the 1948 friendship treaty between the USSR and Finland. As can be seen, and as I have argued, the words are almost identical. http://heninen.net/sopimus/1948_e

3. Here is Article 3 of the 1940 peace agreement between the USSR and Finland. The wording is almost identical. http://heninen.net/sopimus/1940_e

US Senator Rand Paul blocks $40B in Ukraine war aid.

General Mark Milley declared today that the US reserves the right to strike at Afghanistan (a country they are trying to starve to death) if US security is threatened. Funny how quickly the supposedly sacred rights of sovereign nations are forgotten by the US.

The war in Ukraine is terrible. It’s not nearly as bad as the Western backed genocide in Yemen or wars against Libya, Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, but still… So why doesn’t the Global South and the non-western world in general, have any sympathy for the Nato/Western narrative?

Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz

I guess you can call anything a “defensive alliance” if you define everything it does as “defense”, up to and including wars of aggression to topple foreign governments.

Hi @POLITICOEurope, why do you lie so much?

Here’s what Secretary of State James Baker promised the Kremlin (in his own words). https://books.openedition.org/ceup/2906?lang

Russia has suspended electricity supplies to Finland due to non-payment since May 6th.

South Ossetia will hold a referendum on joining Russia on July 17th 2022.

Western nations believed Russia would collapse quickly and Putin toppled. Now clear that’s not happening and self-inflicted damage due to sanctions is worse than they expected, so now blaming Russia for western economic problems. Their fear is palpable as they run out of road.

I’m still not sure why you find this so difficult to understand. Or, rather, you don’t want to understand. The 1992 treaty replaced the earlier treaties and reiterated the mutual-security obligations that had existed under the earlier treaties.

Remember the time we were told that Antifa were the same guys who fought the Nazis in Europe in the 1940s? Latvia orders demolition of memorial to the Soviet liberators who lost millions fighting the Nazis. And not a wimp from the EU, not a wimp from the Biden administration.

From ‘Ukraine’s Neo-Nazi Problem’ to, in 2022: ‘Putin’s false Nazi claims’ and ‘Save Azov‘. The #NATO media on #Ukraine‘s #Nazis, before and after February 2022. Do they think no-one will notice?

Foreign Minister of Russia Sergey Lavrov: “The West has declared a total hybrid war against Russia; it is difficult to predict how long it will last, but the consequences will be felt by all without exception.”

Sky News did a friendly interview with one of the Azov fighters holed up inside the Mariupol steel plant. The interview concludes with the presenter saying, “Best of luck to you… our thoughts are with you.” Absolutely no mention made to viewers that Azov is openly Neo-Nazi

Fiorella Isabel@FiorellaIsabelM

Militarily Ukraine has already lost the war. Yet the U.S continues funneling money for weapons that end up in the hands of paramilitary fascists, who lose them to Russians. The U.S & NATO are using Ukraine to wage a proxy war on Russia & will sacrifice every Ukrainian to do it.

JUST IN – Russia’s State Duma deputy proposed to put “Poland next in line for denazification after Ukraine,” the state news agency RIA reports.

Russophobia may correspond to today’s groupthink and Zeitgeist, but it is scarcely a new phenomenon. The Brits, the French, the Germans, the Americans had it in for the Russians in prior centuries. Their anti-Russian “hate speech” would fill a library.

Alfred de Zayas@Alfreddezayas

Israel keeps unilaterally bombarding Syria with cruise missiles and killing civilians. But the media hardly reports it, and the Human Rights Council keeps silent about it.

Voenkor VGTRK Sergey Zenin showed today on the air of “60 minutes” fragments of shells with which the Armed Forces of Ukraine fired at Popasnaya. Do you recognize these darts? The British media reported that it was with these darts that most of Bucha’s victims were killed

During the day, Russian Air defence forces Downed 6 Ukrainian drones, including one above Snake Island, disabled 18 combat vehicles, including a Smerch multiple launch rocket system near the settlement of Beryozovka, also intercepted a Tochka-U tactical missile. Russian MoD.

This week, 15,000 US led troops will simulate a NATO war with Russia less than 100 miles from Saint Petersburg. Imagine the same provocation 100 miles from nuclear-armed Washington.

Never heard of this guy but he’s not very bright. America and Israel are illegally occupying my country and birthplace Syria. Israel bombed it twice in the last 3 days— not to mention murdered a top Palestinian journalist. We don’t owe colonizers and illegal occupiers anything.

Westerners don’t appear to have asked themselves obvious question what were up to 100k of Ukraine’s elite forces doing in Donbass prior to war starting on 24th February? Would it be reasonable to assert that there was a massive offensive planned for east of Donbass contact line?

The reason the Chechens are present in the Ukraine war is because they are masters at guerilla warfare, village to village, street by street. Russia always knew that was going to be the case in Donbass. West continues to try and spin this as a failure

It seems like the “elites” in Sweden and Finland have decided to join NATO instead of promoting diplomacy and world peace. This augurs badly for future generations.

If Sweden and Finland were true democracies, they would put the question of joining NATO to a referendum.

This interview with a Nobel Peace Prize nominee is worth listening https://rt.com/news/555536-fi

Do Sweden and Finland realize that NATO could very well be considered a “criminal organization” for purposes of art.9 of the statute of the Nuremberg Tribunal? NATO’s aggressive wars and crimes easily justify it.

RU MOD: “An agreement was reached with representatives of the Ukrainian military blocked at Azovstal in Mariupol to remove the wounded, a ceasefire was introduced & a humanitarian corridor was opened to transport the wounded Ukrainian soldiers to a hospital in Novoazovsk (DPR)”

No, @POLITICOEurope, it’s not an “evacuation,” it’s a surrender.

Azovstal siege appears to end.

Denys Prokopenko, the commander of Azov special regiment, said on May 16 that Ukrainian soldiers at Azovstal have “fulfilled their orders” and “were distracting the Russian army for 82 days.”

Azov battalion and other Ukraine forces have surrendered at Azovstal. Injured taken to a hospital. Also claims of a complete surrender yet to be verified. If so wait for the spin on this development.

Significant missile strikes overnight in Lvov region which took out NATO arms depots. Russia is clearly waiting until these depots are at capacity and then destroying them as stated would be the case many weeks ago. Incompetence of the west exposed yet again.

Another clear example of a failing empire and a failing state. US is in total self-destruct mode.
