9 years ago, on May 2nd 2014, Ukrainian radicals murdered at least 42 people in Odessa for the crime of being Russian. They burned them alive. They had tacit approval from the government; no one was punished. From that day on, it was clear that war had become inevitable. The War in Donbass had barely started; after May 2nd, 1000s of volunteers from Odessa & Russia joined the Militias. Ukrainian social networks were full of “funny” videos of people jumping to their deaths to escape the fire. Restaurants added "Vatnik shashlik" to their menus. Young girls poured the Molotov cocktails that lit the Trade Union House on fire; Ukrainian politicians joked about “the traditional May BBQ” for years; people who were involved in the massacre are now popular bloggers, pundits, advisors, military leaders.

A petition was submitted to Zelensky with a proposal to create a state award "order of Bandera"

Oil imports from Russia to India for the first time exceeded the combined supplies of Saudia Arabia and Iraq.

Throwback to the past: Zelensky joking about how money works in Ukraine

“Our economy is on a new level, it’s called BEGGING. You give us your money, we don’t pay it back. You give us money, then goods, then money again.”

His jokes are now the tragic reality.

Wagner destroyed a convoy of reserves that was going to Bakhmut in which the Ukrainian general and Commander of the Territorial Defense Forces was possibly in as well.

Prigozhin said he‘s checking this information and will report about it later.

…and before super enthusiastic channels copy paste this as "TDF GENERAL KILLED" please note the "POSSIBLY" and "information is being checked"…

Ukrainian sources deny the commander was killed. I'm inclined to believe them for now. Neither side has a record of lying about specific individuals being alive when they have been killed. It's too difficult to conceal for any significant period of time.

"Ukraine decides who belongs to the civilized world and who does not"

Ukrainian Foreign Minister

HAHAHAH

Forget all sanctions - this will break the deal, how will Russia recover?

"Last night, the Kiev regime attempted a drone strike on the President's Kremlin residence" - Kremlin

Currently the size and density of the "red lines" are being specified

🤡

A million self-proclaimed "red lines" ignored by Moscow, literally no one to blame but themselves

Dear Russian duma politicians - you have to walk the talk - your Telegram posts won‘t change anything if you won’t do anything 😵‍💫
