"150 #US officers of the Florida Army National Guard and dozens of #NATO officers were gearing the Ukrainian military to fight this war against #Russia, creating an underground control and command base to direct the attacks against Russian troops."

"When I write from the beginning that this is a #US - #Russia war on #Ukraine soil, this hit is a direct hit to the US that @JoeBiden needs to respond by ending this war or escalating so it leads to further conflict beyond the Ukrainian borders."

"At Yavoriv Command and Control centre, the #US and #NATO officers coordinated the attacks on the Russian forces after collecting and analysing all intelligence information gathering about the movement of the Russian troops, their line of supply and weak flanks."

"The #US objective is to drag this war as long as possible to exhaust the #Russian army, weaken its military capability and the economy of Russia. #Moscow is aware of the US goal & has decided to hit "outside the box" showing its determination to take this war further if necessary"

"This is a very dangerous game where we are walking on the edge of the abyss. The presence of #NATO SoF forces on the ground and a #NATO Command and control bases in and out of #Ukraine will have consequences."

Belgian Prime Minister deCroo and the transfer Theft of €235 million of earned interest payable on frozen Russian assets to Ukraine

Yesterday Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Croo announced that he will be sending #stealing the interest earned on frozen #Russian assets presently under his country’s control and illegally transferring it to Ukraine as an "assistance package".

(Where much of it will promptly be stolen by #Zelensky and his corrupt cronies)

To be sure, this is not yet transfer of the €58 billion of Russian assets frozen by Belgium, the largest sum among all the 27 EU Member States.  

Until now we have heard from EU authorities that confiscation of frozen assets is not supported by EU or international law and is very problematic.

What happens to interest earned on the frozen assets remains an open question.

Has the Prime Minister has paid due attention to Russian state policy on such matters which is crystal clear:  confiscations will be met by a mirror image response, meaning the freezing of all assets in Russia of the country perpetrating this atrocity. 

Has consulted with #Solvay, with #Glaverbel and with the many other Belgian companies that have invested a fortune in industrial capacity and logistics infrastructure in Russia?

Has he spoken to the leadership of the #diamond bourse in #Antwerp whose existence depends on continued supply of Russian raw diamonds.

De Croo is aware of that sensitive point since he strongly defended the interests of the diamond cutters when he successfully removed a ban on diamond imports from Russia in one of the latest rounds of EU sanctions
