"Yeah, blame Putin for the war in Ukraine. (But the West is not blameless)" - former special assistant to President Ronald Reagan, Doug Bandow:

"It would be much better if the United States did not help prepare the ground for the terrible military conflict that is now raging between Ukraine and Russia. The US would do much better today if it showed strategic sympathy and thought about how Moscow would take support for the violent overthrow of an elected government in Ukraine that is friendly to Russia. If the Allies had not previously offered NATO membership to Kyiv, it would almost certainly have saved Moscow's wrath.

Today, the US would be much better off if it took Putin's demands seriously. Washington still had time to negotiate. "Western officials cannot escape their role in making this military conflict possibly inevitable."

⚡️⚡️Ukraine faces an endless war. Zelensky's anti-Russian vows are to blame, writes the American magazine The Federalist.

"Because of Zelensky's oaths, the no-win conflict in Ukraine may continue indefinitely," the magazine said in a piece.

The authors of the piece believe that the Ukrainian president's vow is to continue fighting until Russia is defeated and pushed back to the 2014 borders. The likelihood of defeating the nuclear power is reduced to zero, which also does not promise an early end to the conflict, the author of the article concluded.

In his last day as president of Brazil, the right-wing pro-American Jair Bolsonaro fled the country to the US, using a Brazilian Air Force airplane. This could be merely to avoid taking part on the next president's inauguration ceremony, but also perhaps due to fears of being arrested.

The US has a long story of hosting their puppets and troublemakers, such as him and Guaidó, once their missions fail. This might be what will happen to Zelensky in the future.

Russian Ministry rules out possibility of investing NWF assets in US dollars

Earlier, the Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said that the 🇷🇺National Wealth Fund would be replenished in yuan within the framework of the fiscal rule in 2023.

The possibility of investing the funds of the Russian National Wealth Fund (NWF) into US dollar-denominated assets has been ruled out in accordance with the new normative framework of the NWF’s assets, the Russian Finance Ministry said on Friday.

"A new normative framework of the NWF’s assets in permitted foreign currency and gold has been approved, which eliminates the possibility of investing the finances of the Fund in assets denominated in US dollars," the ministry said in files released on its website.

According to the ministry, in order to ensure flexibility in the investment of the NWF’s funds it is suggested that virtual minimum shares of each of the assets in the new framework be zeroed out, whereas the share of Chinese yuan be limited to 60%, of noncash gold - to 40% (previously, the share of yuan and gold totaled 30% and 20%, respectively). Consequently, the limits on investment in yuan and gold have doubled. The remaining balance of the NWF in pounds sterling and Japanese yen in the Bank of Russia has been reduced to null by now. "As a result of those changes the currency structure of the NWF has become better adapted to challenges facing the Russian Federation amid the current macroeconomic and geopolitical environment," the ministry explained

Yesterday, an air defense missile of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was shot down in the airspace over the territory of Belarus.

There were rumours that the Armed Forces of Ukraine deliberately fired a missile at Belarus in order to test its air defense system. The entry of Ukrainian air defense missiles into the airspace of Belarus may be repeated. Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine check the abilities and availability of air defense in Belarus.

In addition, there is a version that Kyiv's actions in relation to Belarus untie the hands of Minsk. Kyiv actually gives Minsk trump cards in the hand. Ukraine is provoking Minsk, creating the preconditions for a joint Russian-Belarusian group to enter Ukraine from the territory of Belarus.

By the way, such a move would allow the Russian army to cut off the supply of military equipment, weapons, and ammunition that come from Poland through western Ukraine, writes @mkill_pmr.

⚡️ US State Department expresses concern over China-Russia alliance after video conference of leaders of two countries

📝 "Beijing claims to be neutral, but its behavior clearly shows that it continues to invest in close ties with Russia," a State Department spokesman said.

📝 “The US and Europe warned the PRC about the consequences of Russia providing military assistance in its war against Ukraine or systematic assistance to circumvent sanctions,” he continued.

America and Europe are behaving like a "possessed ex". They themselves are not ready to build relations with us, but they hinder any of our ties. This is gross interference in the internal affairs of states.
