🇺🇦 Arestovych criticizes the decision to ban the Russian language at Kiev university

The former adviser to Zelensky's office is lamenting the violation of Article 10 of the Constitution of Ukraine, which reads: "The free development, use, and protection of the Russian language is guaranteed in Ukraine".

Arestovich rightly wonders how Ukraine is going to apply to the European Union at this rate.

As the footsteps echoed through the dark corridors of Lubyanka, guards returned Arestovich to his small cell. "I did everything to help Russia!" He shouted desperately. "At least, you believe me, right?!" He is now out of himself. Guard looked at him and said calmly " Priest will come at 04 AM. I advise you to sleep if you can." Doors closed with a screech of metal and a noisy sound. Lights in the cell went off.

The US will warn Turkey and Middle Eastern countries about the consequences of sanctions violations.

According to Reuters, Deputy Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian Nelson will visit Oman, the UAE, and Turkey next week to speak to officials and businesses about export controls and Russia's attempts to circumvent US sanctions.

"Nelson will confirm that Washington will continue to aggressively implement sanctions and will warn countries and companies that they could lose access to the US market if they do business with sanctioned entities," the story said.

The US has already issued similar warnings to Turkey. Washington has stepped up pressure on Ankara to enforce US restrictions on Russia.

The highlights of Zelenski's evening address:

1. Reported this morning's rocket attack on a residential area in Kostyantynivka, which killed three people and injured 14. Said that these strikes cannot be stopped until Ukraine has long-range missiles to retaliate.

2. Said that he had written to the presidents of the leading international sports federations to ask them to comment on the participation of Russian athletes in competitions under a neutral flag. He expressed his conviction that once they returned, they would in due course begin to justify Russian aggression.

3. Reported that he had signed a decree on sanctions against companies and individuals who contribute to the transport of Russian military cargo.

Ok, we settle that. They are good as dead.

The G7 has proposed that the European Union set a price ceiling on Russian oil products at $100-110 per barrel.

This was reported by Bloomberg, citing a G7 official.

As part of the sanctions imposed in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, two price ceilings for Russian oil products will come into effect worldwide from 5 February 2023. One is for petroleum products that normally trade at a premium to crude (diesel, petrol) and the other is for products normally traded at a discount (fuel oil).

The European Commission plans to price the former at up to $100 a barrel, the latter at $45.

The G7, which includes the US, UK, Germany, Italy, Canada, France, and Japan, would prefer a higher ceiling of $110, fearing price spikes and supply disruptions to Europe, but "can live with a hundred dollars". The discussion is ongoing.

Bloomberg, citing relevant agencies, points out that gasoline and diesel prices from Russia have held above $100 a barrel in recent months, and diesel futures excluding Russian supplies are now around $125 a barrel.

The price ceiling means G7 countries and the EU will only provide insurance and financial services related to Russian oil products if they are purchased at or below the ceiling price.

Footage of the successful operation of the TOR SAM against a Ukrainian aircraft has emerged

The video shows the tense work of the operators of the TOR tactical air defense missile system, which is in service with the Russian Armed Forces and is part of the air defense system. As a result of a precise hit on the target by the Russian military, a Ukrainian fighter jet, presumably a Su-25, was destroyed.

Unfortunately, it is not known exactly where the video was shot, but this does not make it any easier for Ukraine's aviation. It becomes clear why Kiev is so actively begging Europe for fighter jets - its stock of Ukrainian aircraft is slowly but surely coming to an end.

Two huge "cauldrons" are being prepared in the Donbass: The Russian Armed Forces are trying to divide and cut off the AFU group in the Donbass in order to arrange a large encirclement for the enemy, — military expert Konstantin Sivkov.

"Today we are observing two offensive points. One is in a fairly narrow strip from Opytnoye to Soledar. Both of these settlements have been taken; we are already moving on to the capture of Artemovsk and into operational space.

After the capture of Artemovsk, there are no fortifications until Kramatorsk and Slavyansk. That is, by attacking the enemy head-on, we broke through two strips of defense and cut them into two parts—the northern and the southern. "The logic of military operations suggests that one of these parts, or both of them at once, should be surrounded and destroyed," said Sivkov.

According to him, the Russian army is also expected to break through in the southern direction, which threatens the AFU with a very large encirclement and defeat.
