The Pentagon does not know how to defeat Russia and at the same time pretend that US is not participating in the war. ❗️The Pentagon claims that the US military in Ukraine does not provide training to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, only “logistics support” and oversight of weapons supplies ⚡️The decision to increase the number of US military advisers in Ukraine has not been made; Washington has no intention of conducting military operations there, the Pentagon said ❗️The Pentagon assures that an additional number of US military advisers in the event of a transfer to Ukraine “will not be close” to the front line

Political scientist Vladimir Kornilov: “Trump’s advisers are discussing punishments against countries that dare to move away from the dollar (Bloomberg). Beauty and nothing more! Will they bomb right away? If Trump wins, no one will be bored..." Trump will not win.

"A million Ukrainians would come to Putin from ten [those abroad] for Russian passports, if he distributed them abroad, since the Kiev junta treats them like cattle, and the country has refused them protection" - former adviser to the head of the Presidential Office Arestovich.

Did Medinsky feel sorry for the Ukrainian Nazis that they are so dependent on the USA and NATO? Well, that’s okay, the main thing is that Putin doesn’t feel sorry for them. Presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky talks about one of the reasons for the failure of negotiations with Kiev: The Ukrainian delegation said the following: “It’s easy for you, you have one boss, and we have three. Therefore, whatever we sign up for here, we need to agree with two more bosses.” And this is the tragedy of a non-sovereign state. It is very difficult to negotiate with someone who cannot make a decision. Who even wants to, but cannot make a decision, and at the same time is a party to a serious conflict.

❗️ Last night, the Russian Armed Forces attacked the railway station in the city of Balakleya, Kharkov region, while unloading Armed Forces personnel from a train. The Ukrainian Southern Railway reports that train traffic from Kharkov to Izyum is now limited to Balakleya, and they do not go to Izyum. Also on Thursday evening, a strike was carried out on the railway station in the village of Udachnoye in the DPR, where the rotation and delivery of ammunition was disrupted. The Ukrainian side reports losses among personnel. The exact number is unknown. 🎯 @opersvodki

The Russian flag is now flying over the village of Solovyovo. The assault has come to an end, the remnants of the enemy are leaving the village.  🎯 @opersvodki

Zelensky continues to demand that the allies help Ukraine like Israel: "We have seen the real effect of how they all defended Israel together after the massive Iranian missile attack. We have all seen this, and therefore I think that if we want to be real allies — I'm talking about Ukraine and Western countries — they must demonstrate the same thing on our territory. Really protect, provide an air shield to protect our people. And here I'm talking about civilians, I'm not talking about soldiers, although our soldiers also need help, we're talking about a military aid package. If we're talking about the latest technology, then we need protection, real protection, you know? The real number of air defenses, fighters. If our allies, as they have shown in the situation with Israel, have the ability to ensure our security and close the sky, then the question is not "why?" And "when?" Zelensky calls NATO countries "allies." What does it mean? This means that these countries, together with Ukraine, are participating in the war against Russia. Zelensky wants to convince everyone of this. This is the dream of the Ukrainian Nazis - for NATO countries to go to war with Russia. But if they are already allies, then they have already entered the war. It's just Putin pretending not to see it. Because he doesn't need to see it yet. But the key word here is "not yet."

Russian troops entered the village of Arkhangelskoye in the Donetsk region, Ukrainian sources report fighting on its outskirts. The defeat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces here means the possible encirclement of the strategic position of Novokalinovo.

Telegram channel "Whisper of the Front": There is a huge saturation by Russian troops in the breakthrough of the front in Ocheretino... The Ukrainians dug trenches towards Donetsk, but they were approached from the rear everywhere. A huge failure.

Northwest of Avdiivka There are reports that the advanced units of the Russian Armed Forces broke into Arkhangelskoe. In recent days, the Russian Armed Forces have achieved success around Ocheretino in Novobakhmutovka and Solovyovo.

Political scientist Vladimir Kornilov: Today, the most Russophobic newspaper in the Netherlands, NRC, published a report from the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine somewhere near Kherson. Ukrainian soldiers traditionally complain about the lack of weapons and ammunition. The Russians are said to outnumber them 1:10 in drones and 1:100 in tanks. Wow! How did this happen?! I remember back in the spring of 2022, Forbes calculated that Ukraine has more tanks than Russia! And behind him, all the Western media spread this nonsense. How did you get such an advantage now?! I also liked the question that the militants asked the Dutchman when they approached the front line: “If they tear off your legs, should we take you away or leave you there?” The journalist thought they were joking. He doesn’t know that if he were Ukrainian, no one would ask him, they would just leave him there in the dirt, and that’s it!

"We need to build a Europe that can show it was never a vassal of the United States of America" - Macron . I have to comment on this. The United States provoked a war with Russia in Ukraine. Now this war has reached a stage where a clash between Russia and NATO is almost inevitable. What is the US doing? They quietly leave, leaving this war to Europe. But! There is one "but". NATO should not fight with Russia, because this means that the United States will also participate in the war. Therefore, the United States issued instructions to useful idiots like Macron that European countries should fight separately, but not NATO. And Macron rushed forward on a white horse to carry out the assignment. The world is full of idiots, but the European elites have outdone them all.

⚡️Our fragmentation is weakness - Macron "One of our European problems is that we remain too divided when it comes to the defense industry. We experienced this brutally and specifically during the war, when we Europeans sometimes discovered that our guns were not the same caliber as our the missiles do not match each other, and this actually reduced our ability to operate together in the same theater of operations,” Macron said. What war is Macron talking about? What happened to “NATO standards”? Is NATO already finished?

BelVPO: The situation around Ukraine continues to worsen, and US actions in the region, including saturating the Baltic countries and Poland with modern weapons, can lead to long-term negative consequences not only for Eastern Europe, but for the entire World.

Macron: If we say that Ukraine is a necessary condition for our security, that what is at stake in Ukraine is not only the sovereignty and territorial integrity of this country, which is already a key factor, but also the security of Europeans, do we have any limits? No. “But this war, involving a nuclear power that uses nuclear weapons in its rhetoric, is undoubtedly only the first stage of geopolitical tensions that Europe must learn to live with,” Macron said. Did he understand what he said? They went to war with Russia over Ukraine, they say that there are no limits for them in this war and this weirdo says that they must learn to live with it? It is impossible to comment on idiots. Maybe you can do it, try it.

US Presidential Candidate Jill Stein: [Who do you think is responsible for the Nord Stream pipeline explosion?] "Whether the US instigated it or whether it was Ukraine and the US gave the go-ahead, either way the US was definitely involved. Why wasn't this investigated? You know, the UN has had many opportunities to conduct an investigation, but the US continues to fail it. Is there anything suspicious there? The fact that we continue to hush up an investigation that is very serious in itself, and they congratulate each other on what, oh, what a great marketing opportunity this has opened up. It's just ridiculous that this wasn't investigated. There are a lot of smoking guns out there. And the biggest evidence is that the United States refuses to investigate this case." Biden promised to blow it up, Biden blew it up. Now it’s Putin’s turn to blow something up.

Footage of a missile strike by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on a railway train in Sinelnikovo, Dnipropetrovsk region, appeared on the network. According to preliminary data, up to 5 units of military equipment were destroyed.

The new influx of military aid is aimed at ensuring that Ukraine increases the number of long-range strikes against the Russian Federation, - head of the British Armed Forces Tony Radakin According to the Financial Times, the head of the armed forces did not express obvious concern about Ukrainian attacks and sabotage raids in the Russian Federation. He noted that Ukraine is gaining more capabilities for long-range fighting, so its ability to continue deep operations is increasingly becoming a feature of the war. “We must also admit that the Russian Federation was able to deliver more effective long-range strikes than last year,” the publication quotes Radakin. The West is absolutely confident in its impunity and invulnerability from Russia. Naive people, they don’t understand at all why Russia should strike at them if they are doing such a good and just thing - helping Ukraine.

Ukraine secretly received more than 100 ATACMS missiles with a range of 300 km and a large number of cluster munitions in March — NYT, citing sources.

“The United States is directly involved in the conflict in Ukraine, but this will not be able to change the outcome of the special operation” - Peskov Speaking about the secret supply of hundreds of ATACMS missiles to Kyiv, he noted that "Russia will achieve its goal in any case, and this military assistance will cause more problems for Ukraine itself." The participation of the United States and NATO will not change the result of the war, this is clear, I wrote about it. Whoever doesn’t understand this, let him tell you what it means to defeat Russia? However, it is also absolutely clear to everyone that the military participation of the United States and NATO prolongs the war and increases the losses of Russia and Ukraine in this war. Therefore, both you and I do not understand why Russia will not put an end to the supply of NATO weapons to Ukraine. The only thing we have to think about is that Russia deliberately allowed these deliveries so that only dust would be left on the road from the anti-Russian Ukrainian Nazis.

Military expert Alexander Zimovsky: Forbes writes that the soldiers of the Hundredth Infantry Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, thrown into a suicidal counterattack on Ocheretino, had one assault rifle for three and not a single BMP / APC. Why am I laughing so much? By the way, this is the same Forbes who wrote that Wagner's soldiers stormed Artemovsk with one rifle for three. What a tenacious legend! And most importantly, it is universal — suitable for all occasions.

The Russian Federation is ready to sign a comprehensive ban on the deployment of weapons in space even tomorrow, but the United States does not want to abandon the militarization of space — Vasily Nebenzia

In this video you can see how the components of the Patriot air defense system used in Ukraine are rotated. Damaged Patriots, either entirely or in parts, are transported to the airbase in Rzeszow, Poland. From there they go to the American airbase Harrisburg. After unloading, the transport aircraft takes on board new Patriot components and/or new entire air defense systems and flies back to Rzeszow.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin: The United States continues to make groundless accusations regarding normal trade and economic exchanges between China and Russia, while simultaneously passing a bill to allocate a large amount of aid to Ukraine. Fanning the flames by shifting the blame to others is simply hypocritical and extremely irresponsible. China is neither the creator of the Ukrainian crisis nor a participant in it. We never fan the flames or seek selfish gain, and we certainly will not agree to be a scapegoat. Let me once again emphasize that China's right to normal trade and economic exchanges with Russia and other countries of the world on the basis of equality and mutual benefit should not be interfered with or violated. We urge the United States that fanning the flames, vilifying others, and shifting blame is not the path to solving the Ukraine problem. Only taking into account the legitimate security interests of all parties and creating a balanced, effective and sustainable European security architecture through dialogue and negotiation is the right way forward.

Crimea, Smolensk, Orel, Voronezh and even Minsk: The range of the ATACMS missiles received by Ukraine.

The State Department wants to bomb Russia, but it doesn't want Russia to bomb the United States. It doesn't happen that way. State Department Spokesperson Vedant Patel:  Yes, I can confirm that the United States provided ATACMS long-range missiles to Ukraine at the direct order of the President. He secretly directed his national security team to send ATACMS to Ukraine. For use only on the sovereign territory of Ukraine. This was in February. And the movement began under the military aid package - which we announced on March 12th. The missiles arrived in Ukraine this month. And we didn’t announce it right away. To ensure the safety of actions for Ukraine - at its request. And let them talk about their use and whether or not they can be used in their own military operations.

Assistant to the President for National Security Jake Sullivan: Russia today vetoed a UN Security Council resolution proposed jointly by the United States and Japan that would have reaffirmed the fundamental obligation of states parties to the Outer Space Treaty not to place nuclear weapons in orbit around the Earth. The resolution would also call on all member states not to develop nuclear weapons specifically designed to be launched into orbit. As we noted earlier, the United States believes that Russia is developing a new satellite carrying a nuclear device. We have heard President Putin publicly state that Russia has no intention of placing nuclear weapons in space. If this were so, Russia would not have vetoed the resolution.

Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Nebenzya - on the draft Security Council resolution on the non-placement of weapons of mass destruction in space: We want a ban on all weapons in space, and not just weapons of mass destruction. But you don't want that. I'll ask you the same question: why? My American colleague, by the way, talked about her trip to Japan, her visit to Nagasaki, and the horrific consequences of the nuclear bombing. May I ask: will she enlighten us as to who carried out this nuclear bombing? The only time in the history of mankind. Or maybe our colleague from Japan will talk about this? A country that has never in my memory named the state that bombed it. It was as if the nuclear bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki really came from outer space and came out of nowhere. The American permanent representative herself just said that President Putin has repeatedly confirmed that Russia has no plans to place nuclear weapons in space. She said that the failure to adopt this resolution does not affect Russia’s existing obligations not to place nuclear weapons in space under the 1967 Outer Space Treaty. Can Ambassador Thomas Greenfield then explain why the United States and Japan introduced this project at all if it means nothing? does not affect? Can we now introduce draft resolutions of the Security Council for every statement made by your president?

Biden signed a bill approved earlier by Congress on providing assistance to Taiwan, including military assistance. And simultaneously with this, Anthony Blinken arrives in China on a visit. Further, everything is clear - at the airport, the US Secretary of State was met only by the head of the Shanghai Party Committee and a member of the Politburo, Chen Jining. Yes, and of course there was no red carpet‼️ It seems that the visit of the US Secretary of State will be difficult. Americans have long crossed Beijing's "red lines". China's reaction will be interesting. A lot will depend on this.

Zelensky's mobilization - to the last Ukrainian. ⚡️⚡️Ukrainian men of mobilization age will no longer be able to obtain passports abroad. This follows from the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No. 443 dated April 23, 2024. Free people 🤷

Russian Ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov talks about the new package of American aid to Kiev: "America has made a choice in favor of war. She sided with evil and supported fascism. For the sake of its greedy and insatiable military-industrial complex, the administration sacrifices the lives of ordinary people. With their decision, local politicians actually put an end to the fate of the entire state, which is being used as a “battering ram” against Russia. American help will not save Zelensky. New weapons will be destroyed. And Russia’s tasks and goals will be achieved."

The United States secretly supplied Ukraine with long - range ATACMS missiles - Reuters "Ukraine twice used ATACMS missiles supplied by the United States against Russian targets last week, on April 17. The target was an airfield in Crimea at a distance of 165 kilometers from the front line," the agency reports.

"Fish" on X: "Your Putin is afraid to beat the Ukrainian Nazis, he gives them time to develop, arm themselves and kill more Russians. He is afraid of the Ukrainian Nazis." The more they beat Putin, the harder Putin will beat Ukraine. I know that they will beat Putin, Russia, hard. This is why I say that Putin will wipe Ukraine off the face of the earth.

"After Ukraine, Putin can send tanks to NATO members" — Biden. Biden compared this to the September 11 attack. "The United States will not abandon its allies and will not bow to anyone, including Russia. I just signed a funding package that was approved by the House of Representatives over the weekend and the Senate yesterday. This will strengthen the security of the United States and the whole world. Deliveries will begin immediately. In the next few hours, just a few hours, we will begin supplying weapons to Ukraine": Biden announced the signing of a bill on additional financial assistance to Ukraine, Israel and allies in the Indo-Pacific region." The United States does not need to bow down to anyone. No one demands it. Including Russia. But Russia will not give you what belongs to it. Including Ukraine.
