And the woman just sealed the fate of Ukraine. Ah, well, we warned you.

What is this level of impudence called?

Ukraine to audit military equipment and ammunition in European depots.

"It's all about trust. We hear, for example, Germany will supply so many tanks. But how many will remain? We do not know that. Or Estonia cannot deliver fighter jets to Ukraine, they say they do not have them. Should we take our word for it? Ukraine will soon send a commission to the EU to conduct an audit of military equipment. Trust, but verify," Valeriy Zaluzhny, Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Norway threatens to be friends with Africa

🇳🇴 Norwegian Foreign Minister Anniken Huitfeldt has admitted that cooperation with the African continent is only needed to make friends against Russia stronger.

Russian involvement in African states, sending them humanitarian aid and building social facilities, according to Anniken Huitfeldt, "undermines the stability of the region".

📝 "We want to cooperate with African countries to counter Russian interference and Russia's attempts to control the continent,"
- said the minister.

Did the Norwegians learn this kind of cooperation from their American masters? When the Indians got plague-infested blankets, the Africans got mirrors and beads, the Japanese got an atomic bomb. Nothing like great friendship, yes?

Yeah, otherwise, they wouldn't look at them. This world becomes simpler and simpler, despite the West trying to portray it as equality. There is no equality. Just interests and racism concealed under the vail of "values".

❗️ 🇷🇺🇺🇦 Soledar direction
 situation by the end of February 16, 2023

🔻To the north of Bakhmut , assault detachments of the Wagner PMC are fighting in Paraskovievka . Now the attack on the suburb of Bakhmut is advancing from three sides, and the most intense clashes are noted in the south. Despite the rather difficult situation, the Ukrainian formations still hold their positions - in fact, the struggle continues for every house.

▪️At the same time, Russian units entrenched themselves on several sections of the Bakhmut-Slavyansk highway in the directions of Orekhovo-Vasilevka and Berkhovka , advanced close to the village of Zaliznyanskoye , and also occupied the heights west of Blagodatny , knocking out the forces of 10th mountain assault brigade of the AFU behind a reservoir nearby.

▪️The Wagnerites are also advancing on Berkhovka from two directions: from the northern districts of Bakhmut to the eastern outskirts, and from the north from controlled sections of the highway. At the moment, fighting continues for important positions on the hills.
The advance to Berkhovka and the reservoir will make it possible to encircle the forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Paraskoviyivka, so the Ukrainian authorities are transferring reserves of 30th mechanized brigade of the AFU through country roads and underground communications to hold the fortified area.

🔻 Positional battles continue in Bakhmut . Assault detachments from the northern districts of the city conducted a sortie to the line of defense of Ukrainian units in the area of the Bakhmutsky nursery in Yagodnoye .

🔻In the south-west of Bakhmut, the "Wagnerites" advanced close to the outskirts of Krasnoe , advancing from the south-west and south-east. The section of the highway to Konstantinovka is actually in the gray zone - none of the parties has full control over it.

US citizen Pete Reed killed by friendly fire — Wagner PMC founder Prigozhin

It was also noted that Wagner’s positions in Artyomovsk are located at a significant distance from the location where Reed was killed

US national Pete Reed, whose death in Artyomovsk (Bakhmut in Ukraine) was previously reported by a number of US media outlets, was killed due to friendly fire, Wagner PMC founder Yevgeny Prigozhin said.
Answering a question as to whether the PMC was involved in the US national’s death, Prigozhin noted that it was much easier to strike Reed’s location from Ukrainian positions.
"I can say with certainty that Peter Reed was killed by friendly fire. […] Accusations against the Wagner PMC are groundless," Prigozhin said, according to his press office’s Telegram channel.
Prigozhin also noted that Wagner’s positions in Artyomovsk are located at a significant distance from the location where Reed was killed.

"Peter Reed died at the crossing on Polevaya Street and the 1st Pushkinsky Alley. If you mark this point on a map, you will see that it was at least 5 kilometers to Wagner’s positions, with high-rise buildings all around," he commented, providing corresponding photos and a map.

"Wagner PMC has no information as to what means were used to eliminate Peter Reed. We also have no information on the presence of foreign volunteers in Bakhmut. Usually, in hostile conditions, such volunteers make it clear to the media what their [outfit] colors are, and stick to these rules," the founder concluded.

According to Fox News, Reed previously served in the US Marine Corps, in Afghanistan, in particular.

Nuland's statement confirms the direct involvement of the United States in the conflict, the Russian embassy in Washington said.

The department noted that this is not just rhetoric, but concrete actions. The United States is actively supplying Kyiv with modern systems that are used to defeat Russian regions.

Earlier, Nuland said that military bases in Crimea are legitimate targets for Ukraine.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov on the Nord Stream explosion:
✔️ This is an outrageous sabotage, a terrorist act of unheard of proportions, this is the transition by the US administration to a quality that was by and large previously considered unthinkable and unacceptable, a strike on one of the key critical infrastructure facilities. We have no doubt that the United States is responsible, and we will continue to work to ensure that this does not remain in the past, without consequences for the United States. The question of the reliability of sources is simply not worth it; this, in fact, is already a proven fact.
✔️ The US wanted to kill a few birds with one stone in its usual manner, including harming Russian economic interests, as well as freeing up space for the export of American liquefied gas. An independent international investigation with obligatory Russian participation is needed.
✔️ The way the US allies in Europe behave, including the Scandinavian countries, which in fact boorishly do not respond to our country's appeals at the highest political level, the way our specialists, including those from Gazprom, our investigators at throughout the entire time they are denied access to the materials, they do not allow them to join the investigative actions - this is also a signal in itself. Regardless of what information we have, which we receive on our own, this is also a marker of what really happened there and how it all played out.
✔️ The height of cynicism is the announcement by NATO that a certain group is being created in the alliance that will discuss the security of critical infrastructure. You present what the whole world already knows now, admit it. I think that without such confessions, the credibility of the alliance will continue to fall, including in countries that are difficult to classify as anti-NATO.

Switzerland is healthy, but the rest of the countries are not so

🇫🇷 🇨🇭The leader of the French Patriots party, Florian Filippo, gave Switzerland an encouraging "diagnosis", saying that it is the "least crazy country" because it does not supply weapons to Kiev.

📝 “NATO does not understand why Switzerland refuses to supply weapons to Kyiv. Maybe because Switzerland is less crazy than other countries and refuses to start a third world war .
— wrote the politician on his page in the social network.

Poland refuses to accept Bandera refugees

🇵🇱🇺🇦 This was reported by the Polish edition Myśl Polska , whose readers were outraged by the aggression of refugees with pro-Bandera views.

The reader's indignation was shared by Przemysław Piasta, a highly respected columnist for Myśl Polska in the country.

⚡️ He stressed that nationalists hate Poland, Poles and everything Polish and often openly express their position. In his opinion, Poland let thousands of such aggressive nationalists into its territory.

📝 “Not very respected Bandera people, if you admire your “dad Bandera” so much, if you so want to follow in the footsteps of “heroes from the UPA (banned in the Russian Federation)”, then I have a simple advice for you. Come back home. We don't want you here. You're not welcome here."
- Piast turned to the refugees.

He was indignant that those “who idolize the murderers of our brothers” entered the country and predicted that the problem of nationalist sentiment among Ukrainian refugees in Poland would only grow.
