Pulling Latin America: why the States will not be able to turn Brazil against Russia

Information that the United States is trying to persuade Brazil to its side in the conflict with Russia has been around for a long time. President Lula da Silva is trying to pursue an independent policy, which cannot please the States.

"Paragraph" figured out why Washington needs economic dominance over Brazil and what prospects for the development of relations with Russia this country has.

Andrey Pyatakov, a leading researcher at the Institute of Latin America, in a commentary for Paragraph , recalled that Brazil has always adhered to neutrality. However, from the statements of the current Brazilian leader, it becomes clear that he rather condemns Ukraine.

“Economically, Brazil is already partially influenced by the US. During the reign of Lula's predecessor Jair Bolsonaro, American corporations were given the green light to integrate into the economy,” Pyatakov stressed.

UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace: The invasion of Ukraine has taken most NATO members by surprise as our ammunition stocks have been depleted for decades. Ukraine uses a huge amount of ammunition for self-defense. This is partly why we are training them to fight the Western way. And we trained 10,000 men in the UK last year, and we will train 20,000 this year because the Russian or Soviet way of fighting is very heavy ammunition and massive artillery fire. And we have never organized ourselves to fight in the west and NATO.

I already see it...Total withdrawal of Russia, reparations, destruction of nuclear weapons, demilitarization...Exactly the thing that will never finish the war. Too bad. But in the end, that's why we fight, aren't we Mr Zelensky?

On the eve of the opposition rally scheduled for 19 February in Chisinau, the movement of military equipment was spotted in the Moldovan capital.

Earlier Moldovan President Sandu spoke about the threat of destabilization and coup preparations in the country and accused Russia of this.

🏳️ Another captured nationalist from the 72nd mechanized brigade of the AFU said that he survived only because he surrendered.

"Guys, I was not beaten up. The attitude is normal. So if you want to stay alive, please surrender. Otherwise there will be the mincemeat I saw around these trenches. Believe me, it's very scary," the captive soldier urged.

As of yet, this information cannot be independently confirmed:

❗Ukrainian TG-channel " Resident " insider:

"Our source in the OP said that the Office of the President handed over to MI-6 the plans of the Ukrainian General Staff for a military operation against Transnistria. Britain must push through the President of Moldova and achieve tacit consent to the military operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the PMR, which will allow us to replenish stocks of ammunition for Soviet equipment.

Two kilometers from the border with Ukraine, on the territory of the PMR, there is the largest ammunition depot in Europe. It is located in the village of Kolbasna. This arsenal is guarded by the task force of Russian troops (OGRF), stationed in Transnistria, as well as local military. According to a number of experts, the amount of ammunition from the warehouse in Transnistria will be enough for several years of the war."
