 Commentaires: 0 Who Can Give Security Guarantees To Ukraine? Mar 25 Juil 2023 - 22:16 par Vivre Enrussie Who Can Give Security Guarantees To Ukraine? A main question for Ukraine since it became an independent state was who or what could potentially guarantee its security. In the first years after 1991 the Ukrainian government thought that it could secure itself. It had inherited some Soviet nuclear weapons and it tried to bring those to use. But it failed to circumvent the security locks the Russian engineers had integrated into the nuclear warheads. There was also pressure from the U.S. to get rid of those devices as the Ukraine at that time was prolific in selling its Soviet era weapons to various shady actors around the world. ... https://www.moonofalabama.org/2023/07/who-can-guarantee-ukraines-security.html#more Commentaires: 0 Russia Raises Stakes With Bold Strike On Danube Port Mar 25 Juil 2023 - 10:44 par Vivre Enrussie Russia Raises Stakes With Bold Strike On Danube Port When Russia began its large strikes on Odessa, we all wondered how far the Russian MOD would take things. We saw maps like the following, showing all the container ships heading up the Danube toward Ukrainian ports bordering Romania, and wondered whether Russia would strike those, being so close to the borders of a NATO state:  ...

In the US Army manuals for warfighting with smoke, there are four kinds for the battlefield (lead image) – obscuring smoke which is aimed at blinding the enemy so he can’t see what you have coming for him; screening smoke which is laid down between you and your enemy, so he can’t see what you are doing in your positions; protecting smoke which is aimed at disrupting the laser and other targeting systems of the other side’s artillery and rockets; and marking smoke whose purpose is either to pinpoint targets for air attackers or … [ Lecture complète ] Commentaires: 0 Le pont de Crimée est une « cible » qui doit être « neutralisée », selon Volodymyr Zelensky Sam 22 Juil 2023 - 12:41 par Vivre Enrussie Le pont de Crimée est une « cible » qui doit être « neutralisée », selon Volodymyr Zelensky ---------------------------------- Il suffit de regarder une carte pour voir que le pont de Crimée est au sud du front et ce n'est pas la route principale pour alimenter le front.

The failure of the Ukrainian counter-offensive and its lack of any viable way to win the conflict seems to be sinking in. Who wants to write or read about the huge strategic mistake the Biden administration committed when it blackmailed Ukraine as well as its other vassals, especially when the beltway gang is strongly in favor of another Biden presidency. The alternative, another round of artificially Trump-ed up chaos, seems unbearable to them. This despite further evidence that Biden's policies and influence were always for sale, especially to foreign bidders. That is, by the way, another scandal … [ Lecture complète ] Commentaires: 0 GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN, SEPARATING THE WHEAT FROM THE CHAFF – THIS IS HOW THE NEW BLACK SEA CAMPAIGN WILL GO Sam 22 Juil 2023 - 11:27 par Vivre Enrussie GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN, SEPARATING THE WHEAT FROM THE CHAFF – THIS IS HOW THE NEW BLACK SEA CAMPAIGN WILL GO Officially speaking, the Russians ended the year-long Black Sea Grain Initiative by refusing to renew it on July 17.

The Ukrainian attacks on the Togliatti-Odessa ammonia pipeline (June  and the Taman ship-loading terminal (June 2); Ukrainian efforts to use the grain carriers in the United Nations-supervised sea corridor to conceal imports of weapons and the launch of naval drones aimed at the Crimean Bridge, Russian Black Sea fleet vessels, and other shore targets; the refusal of the NATO states to lift their sanctions against the Russian trade to implement the terms of the original UN agreement — at the same time as …[ Lecture complète ] Commentaires: 0 The Media and Ukraine War Coverage: Where Truth Takes a Holiday Jeu 20 Juil 2023 - 11:01 par Vivre Enrussie The Media and Ukraine War Coverage: Where Truth Takes a Holiday ... One specific passage tells of Western photojournalists asking their subjects to remove patches with Nazi emblems before taking photos. By doing so, these journalists crossed the line from documenting their subjects to staging them. On the same day, former New York Times media columnist Ben Smith published an article reporting that many Western journalists have grown frustrated with how the Ukrainian government uses access and accreditation to shape war coverage. For example, the Ukrainian military threatened to revoke a photojournalist’s credentials after he took pictures of conscripted soldiers in a trench without the presence or permission of a military press officer. In another example, an NBC News crew … [ Lecture complète ] Commentaires: 0 Ukraine aims to sap Russia’s defenses, as U.S. urges a decisive breakthrough Jeu 20 Juil 2023 - 9:34 par Vivre Enrussie Ukraine aims to sap Russia’s defenses, as U.S. urges a decisive breakthrough Ukrainian commanders have yet to use the large-scale offensive tactics they have been trained on, as Kyiv says it needs more weapons to fight the war Washington wants Ukraine is making limited advances in its counteroffensive against Russian forces but has yet to employ the kind of larger-scale operations that American officials believe could enable a breakthrough, officials and analysts say, deepening questions among some of Ukraine’s chief backers about whether Kyiv can move fast enough to match a finite supply of munitions and arms.

As the war continued I made the point again and again. ... A new narrative element is creeping in with talks about a ceasefire in Ukraine. It would give the Ukraine time to refit its military. But Russia has absolutely no reason to agree to a pause in the fight. During the war its military has become larger and better and a total defeat of the Ukrainian army is only a question of time. The U.S. and NATO will soon have lost their big proxy war against Russia.

Because, as he states, the Kerch Bridge is actually no longer used for military supplies and has not been for many months, and is therefore exclusively a civilian corridor. This is an interesting admission on his behalf because it appears to possibly point to a secret agreement with the West/Kiev, perhaps as part of the Grain Deal and other such backdoor handshakes that go on all the time, both explicit and implicit. ...

Yes, the Ukraine might still some day be invited to start the long and arduous process of joining NATO, but only after some undefined number of NATO members decide that it has done enough to comply with "NATO standards" (I'll explain what those are later) and various other vague things.
