Kiev's fault in Dnipro

Oleksiy Arestovych earlier published a video admitting that a Ukrainian air defense missile was responsible for changing the course of the Russian missile that struck a residential building in Dnipro and resulted in tens of civilian deaths

“I offer my sincere apologies to the victims and their relatives, the residents of Dnipro and everyone who was deeply hurt by my prematurely erroneous version of the reason for the Russian missile striking a residential building,” Arestovych wrote in a post on Facebook.

    The strike on the apartment building in #Dnipro was the consequences of Ukrainian air defense shooting down missiles from inside the city over populated areas. This was confirmed by Oleksiy Arestovych, advisor to the office of the president of Ukraine. #ZelenskyyWarCriminal pic.twitter.com/REvYbmyrZ7

Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov affirmed on Monday that the Russian military is not striking civilian buildings and infrastructure facilities in Ukraine, pointing out that the cause of the collapse of a residential building in the city of Dnipro was Kiev's interceptor missile.

"The Russian armed forces do not strike residential buildings or civilian infrastructure facilities, strikes are carried out against military targets," Peskov made clear.

Nuclear accident could happen

The ZNPP remains a tense point as Ukrainian forces keep targeting it

When asked during a press conference about the possibility of an accident at a nuclear power plant (NPP) in Ukraine, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi stated it could happen at any minute - if it wasn't surrounded by a safety zone.  

"It can happen any moment, any time. Today you can have a quiet situation, and the next day you can have shelling, and this has happened. And when shelling comes, or when the external power supplies are interrupted, and the reactors are no longer cooled, you can have a meltdown," Grossi replied to the journalist.

ZNPP as a focal point

The Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) remains a tense point of focus in this regard as Ukrainian forces seem to keep targeting it even after it the region joined Russia this past fall in a referendum.

It is the largest NPP in Europe with six power units and a capacity of 1 gigawatt each. It has been under Russian protection since March 2022, which was justified and validated by the Russian Foreign Ministry as a step to avoid nuclear and radioactive material leakage and spill. 

Previous shelling by Ukrainian forces against the ZNPP has caused power outages and infrastructure damages. 

Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu stated in light of Ukraine's constant targeting that it is the latter's way of painting a mirage of a nuclear disaster threat. Following that, the IAEA repeatedly stressed the need for a safety zone around the ZNPP.

On Monday, Grossi said that the agency will increase its presence in Ukraine to help avoid a nuclear accident amid the continuation of the Ukraine war.

    "@IAEAorg is expanding its presence in #Ukraine to help prevent a nuclear accident during the ongoing conflict. I’m proud to lead this mission to [Ukraine], where we’re deploying in all of the country’s NPPs to provide assistance in nuclear safety & security," Grossi tweeted
However, a senior official in the Zaporozhye regional government, Vladimir Rogov, said last month that the main requirement for establishing a security zone around the ZNPP should be the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops to a distance from which they will be unable to deliver strikes at the station.

"A protective dome is being mounted at the ZNPP over the storage facility for spent nuclear waste," Rogov also assured earlier on Telegram. The dome is designed to protect against fragments of shells and improvised explosive devices carried by drones, according to the official.

What the propaganda spewing mass media are not showing

Hundreds of protests taking place across Europe against NATO, many people demanding their countries leave NATO

Thousands in protests against sanctions on Russia that are raising the cost of living in many European countries

Protests in support of Donbass and against countries sending weapons to Ukrainian Nazis

Poland, due to hundreds of thousands of them being slaughtered in WW2 by Ukrainian Nazis, hate Ukrainians, they now find their country swamped by Nazi loving Ukrainians.The vast majority of Polish people, 80%, have no idea what is happening in their own country due to news blackouts

VERY difficult to find facts as independent news site keep being block and main stream media NEVER tells the truth

Kiev Nazis have silenced all legally elected opposition MPs and political parties have been banned, many MPs actually imprisoned. Media blackout, propaganda, lies and disinformation are suppressing the entire population

Any soldier attempting to escape from the Kiev army is executed by the Nazi police

The Kiev Nazi army is STILL attacking Donbass and killing CIVILIANS on a daily bases as it has been doing for countless years

Ukrainian army destroyed Donbass hospital

Ukrainian soldiers inflicted crushing blows on an elite hospital for “Kadyrovites” in Kadiyivka (Luhansk region of Donbass)

According to the Strategic Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the soldiers destroyed the building of the former dispensary of the machine-building plant with high-precision weapons.

“Recently, the Russian occupiers have turned him into a VIP hospital, where only ‘Kadyrovites’ were treated. There won’t be any more,” the Strategic Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted.

Locals write that the VIP hospital on the territory of the machine-building plant’s preventive clinic was so classified that not even all residents knew about it.

However, this did not become an obstacle for the Ukrainian partisans, who scouted everything and passed on the coordinates of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

CONCEPT NOTE
UN SECURITY COUNCIL ARRIA FORMULA MEETING
“THE SYSTEMATIC WAR OF UKRAINE AGAINST THE RESIDENTS OF DONBASS: 2014 AND ONWARDS”

Date: 20 January 2023
Time: 10 am – 1 pm
Venue: ECOSOC Chamber
Participation: All UN Member States, Permanent Observers, UN entities, civil society organizations and press are invited

The meeting will be held in all UN official languages and webcast on UN WebTV (subject to non-objection by UNSC Members)

Background:

In February 2014, the president of Ukraine was ousted from power by radical elements in breach of Ukrainian constitution as a result of coup d’etat in Kiev which was committed with clear collusion with the USA and several European Union members.

From the outset, the Kiev regime started promoting Russophobia curbing the basic rights of Russian-speakers. This resulted in acts of violence and intimidation and provoked Crimea’s reunification with Russia as well as bloody conflict against the residents of Donetsk and Lugansk regions who did not accept the new order in Kiev which posed an existential threat to them.

They demanded federalization of Ukraine and sought autonomy, in particular to protect their cultural identity.

The Kiev regime responded with full-fledged war against Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics. Residents of Donbass faced cruelty of the Ukrainian armed forces and nationalist battalions.

For 8 years, the civilian population endured daily shelling of residential areas, tortures, threats and kidnappings.

This situation was knowingly ignored by the Western countries, who de-facto issued a blank cheque to the Kiev regime for suppression of the will of Donetsk and Lugansk residents by force and crack-down on the rights of Russian speaking people in Ukraine in general.

Not only they encouraged Kiev to violate Minsk agreements, but also blocked any reaction to these crimes in international organizations and provided vast amounts of arms and ammunition to Kiev. This line of action was not only repeatedly demonstrated by Ukrainian leadership, but also acknowledged by the co-signatories of Minsk agreements German Chancellor Angela Merkel 1 and French President Francois Hollande 2
.
The government of Ukraine continued to violate Minsk agreements and UNSC resolution 2202(2015) over seven years and finally decided to resolve the conflict by force intensifying its hostile activities against peaceful population of Donbass in February 2022. Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics sought assistance from Russia.

This situation triggered the Special Military Operation of the Russian Armed Forces. Large areas of the republics were liberated, however due to the massive supplies of arms to Kiev regime by the West the complete liberation is yet to be achieved.

Having received US, French and other long-range artillery and rocket systems by the end of 2022 Kiev intensified targeted shelling of civilian infrastructure and residential areas which led to numerous deaths and injuries of non-combatants including many children.

Independent investigators and journalists are collecting vast amounts of evidence of systematic war crimes and violations of international humanitarian law committed by the Ukrainian military personnel.

Objective:

The Arria Formula meeting is aimed at providing the participants with omprehensive analysis of the background, root causes, course and the present state of the systematic war of the Kiev regime against people of Donbass.

While Western media promote a distorted picture marked by disinformation and fake news, participants will hear the views of political scientists, journalists and Donbass natives who directly faced the cruel reality of the lives of peaceful population in Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, studied their true motives and aspirations.

Ukrainian government Unrest

For several months there has been unrest within the Ukrainian government due in part to the FACT that anyone who opposes Zelensky, is made to leave the political arena

It had been strongly rumored that Zelensky was about to be replaced

When Oleksiy Arestovych earlier published a video admitting that a Ukrainian air defense missile was responsible for changing the course of the Russian missile that struck a residential building in Dnipro and resulted in tens of civilian deaths, he was made to resign

Now, it appears that Zelensky is removing many more politicians who oppose him on what are almost certainly trumped up charges

Remember Zelensky banned all opposition parties and arrested many opposition MPs

Ukraine PM next to be sacked

Ukrainian media say the Ukrainian Prime Minister may follow the lead of discredited acting minister for regional development

Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal may be next to be dismissed amid a major government shakeup announced by President Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian media reported.

Zelensky indicated on Monday that there would be changes to the cabinet after Ukrainian media reported on irregularities in military procurement schemes. Several senior officials and governors have since been fired or said they have quit.

The announcement came a day after Vasyl Lozynsky, the acting minister for regional development and Shmyhal’s confidant, was arrested on bribery charges.

Ukrainian daily Strana.ua quoted an unnamed government official as saying that Lozynsky’s ouster did not result well for the Prime Minister.

"His case will be used to target the premier or maybe even to have Shmyhal removed from office," the official told the newspaper.

Shmyhal has reportedly sought to distance himself from the arrested minister, whom he appointed as his first deputy after taking office in 2020. Shmyhal’s removal would lead to the government's resignation and allow Zelensky to pick a new Prime Minister, subject to parliamentary approval.

Later on Tuesday, the Ukrainian President reshuffled regional governments, firing governors of Kiev, Dnipro, Sumy regions, as well as heads of the Kiev-controlled parts of Kherson and Zaporozhye regions.

At the same time, Oleksiy Kuleba, the dismissed governor of the Kiev region, was immediately appointed by Zelensky as deputy chief of his office. Kuleba replaced Kyrylo Tymoshenko, who has been implicated in corruption scandals.

It is noteworthy that a number of Ukrainian officials, including members of Zelensky's office, deputy ministers, and governors, have been dismissed over the past 24 hours amid high-profile bribery scandals.

Earlier today, a spokesperson for the US Department of Defense, Patrick Ryder, considered that the actions of Ukrainian President Zelensky to dismiss a number of Ukrainian officials in connection with corruption charges is an internal matter.

In response to a question by Al Mayadeen on Tuesday, Ryder denied that the US government is aware of the corruption charges, even if they had a negative impact on the course of the battles there.

https://english.almayadeen.net/news/pol ... al:-report

As I was saying a few weeks ago, many of Ukrainian's top officials and military figures wanted Zelensky replaced, off-hand I cannot remember the name of the person that others sought to replace Zelensky with. It now appears Zelensky has pre-empted such a plan by removing many of those who were against him on trumped up corruption charges X(

Could have been General Valery Zaluzhmy who officials wanted to replace Zelensky with because nobody trusts Zelensky anymore

West preparing to replace Zelensky

A former US intelligence officer says the days of the reign of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are coming to an end

Retired US Marine Corps Intelligence Officer Scott Ritter revealed that the West is laying the groundwork for the overthrow of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to replace him with Valery Zaluzhny, the commander-in-chief of Ukrainian troops.

In an interview for the Judging Freedom YouTube channel, Ritter claimed that "the West pushed Zelensky into the background, focusing on Zaluzhny as the future leader of Ukraine."

According to Ritter, there is a tendency in the Western media to promote the figure of Zaluzhny, pointing out that the days of the reign of Zelensky are coming to an end, as he no longer has the previous power and could not influence the subsequent outcome of events.

"People like General Zaluzhny will determine the future of Kiev. When the conflict reaches its final stage, it will be he who will sit at the negotiating table from Ukraine’s side," the retired intelligence officer indicated.

    This comes at a time when the head of the We Are Together with Russia movement, Vladimir Rogov, said the Ukrainian President is using the Ukrainian intelligence service as a sole support force in order to maintain his power and fight his political rivals

    Rogov told TASS that Zelensky is making many political enemies during his attempt to build a one-man power system in Ukraine, which will create large opposition forces for him
Former CIA officer Philip Giraldi had also indicated that Zelensky is trying to involve NATO in a direct conflict with Russia, explaining that the Ukrainian President and his advisors are determined to escalate the situation.

Get this crazy war ended now

Former US President Donald Trump said on Truth Social on Thursday that the war in Ukraine was crazy and slammed Western countries for sending tanks to Ukraine

"FIRST COME THE TANKS, THEN COME THE NUKES. Get this crazy war ended, NOW. So easy to do!" Trump said on Truth Social.

Yesterday, Washington announced it would supply Kiev with 31 Abrams tanks, which would constitute a Ukrainian tank battalion.

The announcement was issued shortly after Germany said it commits to providing 14 Leopard 2A6 tanks to Ukraine.

The former Republican president has said several times that the Ukraine conflict would have never happened if he were president, and warned that the conflict will eventually lead up to World War III.

Last month, a survey conducted by the Chicago Council showed a remarkable decline in American popular support for Ukraine's military aid, in light of the Russian military operation in Ukraine, which began in late February 2022.

Nearly half of Americans say Washington should urge Kiev to settle for peace with Russia, according to the same survey.

"Republican backing for aid to Ukraine has slipped since the spring, with 55 percent of Republicans saying they support sending military aid, compared with 68 percent in July and 80 percent in March," the survey found.

According to the opinion survey, 47% -- up from 38% in July -- say the United States should urge Ukraine to settle for peace as soon as possible so the costs aren’t so great for American households, even if that means Ukraine will lose some territory.

Americans who say their country should continue supporting Ukraine "even if American households have to pay higher gas and food prices as a consequence" have declined now to 48% -- compared to 58 % in July, according to the same survey.

As for 29% of the participants, they say that the United States should gradually withdraw support for Ukraine.

Another poll published in late December 2022 revealed that Americans don’t want the US to go to war to defend the former Soviet Republic. The majority preferred that US leaders focus on domestic issues, which are many and require handling.

According to the survey conducted by YouGov, in conjunction with the Charles Koch Institute, the majority of Americans, 48%, said they are either strongly or somewhat against “going to war with Russia to protect Ukraine’s territorial integrity” should Russia invade the country. Only 27% favored such a move, while 24% said they didn’t know.

Meanwhile, 73% agreed that the United States “should prioritize domestic issues over foreign policy issues,” whereas only 7% agreed that foreign policy should be prioritized.

Some of the United States aims in becoming involved include trying to weaken Russia, to hide the many US Biolabs in Ukraine and cover up the Biden family's dodgy deals. Had Hunter Biden's laptop and all the corruption been made public prion to the last election, TRUMP would be president

Powerful explosions erupt in ZNPP

Power explosions in the area of the Zaparozhye nuclear power plant (ZNPP) the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said on Thursday, citing experts working with the nuclear watchdog

"Powerful explosions have been occurring outside the facility, indicating military activities in the vicinity of the site located on the frontline of the ongoing conflict," the agency said.

Agency experts at the station reported in recent days and weeks such incidents to the UN nuclear watchdog in Vienna on a near-daily basis.

"Some blasts apparently take place some distance away from Europe’s largest nuclear power plant (NPP), while others seem much closer to the facility itself," the experts said.

"Yesterday, eight strong detonations were heard at around 10 am local time, causing office windows at the plant to vibrate, and more were audible today," they reported.

When asked during a press conference about the possibility of an accident at a nuclear power plant in Ukraine, IAEA chief Rafael Grossi stated it could happen at any minute - if it wasn't surrounded by a safety zone.

"It can happen any moment, any time. Today you can have a quiet situation, and the next day you can have shelling, and this has happened. And when shelling comes, or when the external power supplies are interrupted, and the reactors are no longer cooled, you can have a meltdown," Grossi told reporters.

    The ZNPP remains a tense point of focus in this regard as Ukrainian forces seem to keep targeting it even after it the region joined Russia this past fall in a referendum
It is the largest NPP in Europe with six power units and a capacity of 1 gigawatt each. It has been under Russian protection since March 2022, which was justified and validated by the Russian Foreign Ministry as a step to avoid nuclear and radioactive material leakage and spill.

Previous shelling by Ukrainian forces against the ZNPP has caused power outages and infrastructure damages.

Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu stated in light of Ukraine's constant targeting that it is the latter's way of painting a mirage of a nuclear disaster threat. Following that, the IAEA repeatedly stressed the need for a safety zone around the ZNPP.

Grossi said earlier that the agency would increase its presence in Ukraine to help avoid a nuclear accident amid the continuation of the Ukraine war.

In the meantime, the IAEA is ramping up its efforts in the region to "help prevent a nuclear accident" from occurring amid Ukrainian shelling around the plant.

    However, a senior official in the Zaporozhye regional government, Vladimir Rogov, said in December that the main requirement for establishing a security zone around the ZNPP should be the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops to a distance from which they will be unable to deliver strikes at the station
"Western countries and [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelensky's regime continue to speculate on the creation of a security zone around the ZNPP, even though it is obvious to everyone that the danger to the nuclear plant comes exclusively from Zelensky's militants who repeatedly fired at the facility.

Therefore, only one option is possible - to create a security zone; in which Kiev retreats its troops and heavy weapons to a distance from which they will not be able to strike at the nuclear power plant," Rogov said.

The IAEA has repeatedly stated that a safety zone around the ZNPP was required.

China supports Russian athletes

The Chinese Olympic Committee (COC) on Saturday expressed its agreement with the stance of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) to allow, among others, Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate in international tournaments under the neutral status

"The Chinese Olympic Committee assumes that athletes from all over the world should have equal rights to participate in competitions. Their participation should be determined by their athletic performance and should not depend on such factors as politics or war," the COC considered in a statement.

"China has always adhered to the principle of political neutrality in sports and opposed the politicization of sports," the statement read.

Elsewhere, the COC pointed out that it would "actively support the IOC and the OCA's initiatives and decisions" and was ready to establish a platform for the joint protection of all athletes, including professional Russian and Belarusian athletes, to protect Olympic values.

The IOC said on Wednesday that a pathway for the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes in the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics should be "further explored", ignoring calls from Ukraine to ban them.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Tuesday he had stressed to his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron that Russian athletes "should have no place" at the Paris Games.

At the Olympic Summit in December, the OCA announced its readiness to host Russian athletes at Asian sports competitions, including at the next Asian Games in the Chinese city of Hangzhou, which would run from September 23 to October 8.

On Thursday, the UK's Culture Secretary Michelle Donelan described the IOC's plans as "a world away from the reality of war being felt by the Ukrainian people."

On February 28, the IOC urged sports federations and organizers to exclude Russian and Belarusian athletes and officials from international events over the war in Ukraine.
