Being a wanted war criminal complicates Putin’s relationships with all world leaders - even Xi, who is supposed to visit next week.
@geoffreyyork Mar 17
Putin is scheduled to attend the BRICS summit in South Africa in August. South Africa, as a member of ICC and a signatory of the Treaty of Rome, will have a legal obligation to enforce the ICC arrest warrant against him.
We get up and go to work, they get up and go to work:
@WarMonitor3 5h
Ukrainian special forces are reported to have destroyed 10 Russian tanks on the Donetsk frontline in one night using a variety of drone dropped munitions.
@NOELreports 9h
Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Kubrakov said that the “grain deal” was continued for 120 days (it was to expire 18 March). Earlier, the Russian leadership threatened not to continue it, or to extend it only for 60 days.
“” Of course, not once can you ever find a post of mine supporting Putin. “”
It is obvious who you support and how you support them not just against Ukraine but against America and Europe, the Western world.
To quote you “”””Xi and Putin have been reading George Kennan. It appears that BRICS+ is their version of NATO, CENTO, SEATO, etc. I can only hope they are successful in containing the Woke, Green, Pervo, Globalist, Monolithic Crusade.””””
“”””The FBI hasn’t shut down access to Tass yet. They have a search. Contrary to what you’ve been led to believed, your eyes won’t explode if you go there. If you want the truth about Trump, Biden, vinyl pants, American elections, Obama, Christians, climate change, new green deal, yellow cake uranium, who attacked us 9/11, Soros, Russia, Russia, Russia, woke perversions, Nordstream, etc., I highly recommend them.””””
EU countries to sign agreement to buy shells for Ukraine
“Several European Union countries will sign an agreement on Monday (20 March) to team up to buy artillery rounds for Ukraine as part of an effort to speed up and increase the supply of shells that Kyiv says it urgently needs to fight Russia’s invasion...
The pact to jointly procure 155 mm artillery shells will be signed on the sidelines of a meeting of EU foreign and defence ministers in Brussels on Monday, officials said. First orders under the plan could be placed by the end of May...
The initiative is part of a plan presented by EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell to earmark 1 billion euros ($1.07 billion) to reimburse EU countries for sending shells from their own stocks to Ukraine and a further 1 billion euros for joint procurement...
...knowing a major joint procurement effort is under way should encourage member countries to send more of their current stockpiles to Ukraine.
The money would come from the European Peace Facility, an EU-run fund that has financed 3.6 billion euros of military aid to Ukraine since Russia’s invasion in February 2022.”
What pathetic shovel fulls of BS. Are you really serious? I commented on what they were doing. Are you stupid enough not to see that? Have you read Kennan? If I’m wrong, show me where. Where did I say anything about the great man Putin? I know, I can’t voice an opinion on the warmonger in chief and his hinterland stooges’ policies either, right? Yes, I hope you warmongering, woke, green, pervo globalists are stopped. That is priority number one for the world today. If BRICS+ can’t stop you globalists from destroying the world, who else?
Now a media stooge like you believes Russia, Russia,Russia, legit American elections, Biden, Soros, New Green Deal, perversions of all variety, yellow cake, who attacked us 9/11, EVERYTHING on the list. As I said, if you want the truth on every one of those issues Tass is more reliable. But a warmongering administration shill is not interested in the truth. You’ve obviously got the time, fact check your media masters on those issues. You keep binging my posts and you’ll need a larger hat.
You need some medication, that was a raging, rambling, mess of gibberish.
Have to have it spoon fed to you by your media masters. I completely understand. I’m afraid I can’t dumb it down to that level. Pretty puny dodge on even attempting to defend you laughable BS though. But great, I assume I won’t be getting anymore administration PR from you.
What a nutty post.
You seem freaked out over seeing your post placed here for people to see it.
NATO Ally Placing HIMARS Right on Putin’s Front Door
“On Thursday, Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said his country intends to place a number of HIMARS rocket launchers at the Russian border. Blaszczak said the battery was acquired in 2019, and the announcement comes on the heels of Congress’ approval of 500 HIMARS charging modules for Ukraine’s defense.
“Until the end of 2023, the U.S. HIMARS rocket artillery systems will be at the disposal of the 16th mechanized division of the Polish army, which is deployed near the border with the Russia’s Kaliningrad region,” Blaszczak said Friday, noting the success of the system in Ukraine’s air defenses.
The news comes one day after Blaszczak announced that the U.S. Department of State had approved the sale of 800 Hellfire missiles for use on a number of support helicopters.”

“NATO Ally (Poland) Placing HIMARS Right on Putin’s Front Door (Kaliningrad)”
Not only is Poland reinforcing its combat capability on the border with Kaliningrad (in several ways), but NATO allies are also moving their own additional forces and weapons into Poland and the Baltics.
At the same time, Russian forces in Kaliningrad have been significantly reduced, as their units from there rotated into the Ukraine, and sustained heavy losses.
Russian units from the Arctic have also been chewed up in the Ukraine War, and Finland is now strengthening its 830 mile border with Russia as well. Russia is being rapidly demilitarized, as the gigantic Soviet stockpiles of war materiel are being expended - over halfway done.
Another year like the last one, and Russia’s conventional Military capability will be living hand to mouth, only able to expend as much as they can make - roughly a tenth of the rate of of last year’s expenditures (unless foreign suppliers come to their aid, and endure Western sanctions).
That will be the once in a lifetime best opportunity for oppressed minorities and regions to throw off Moscow’s yoke.
I just can’t get over that Finland is soon to be a full member of our alliance, that is such wonderful news for the future.
“Finland is soon to be a full member of our alliance”
The Finnish Army fields the largest Artillery force in Europe. 700 operational howitzers, and they use smart rounds, for one shot kills.
Imagine how the people in the Baltics feel, especially Estonians. They were thought of as a “speed bump”. Now NATO can flank any force invading the Baltics.
@visegrad24 1h
Canada delivers its next batch of Leopard 2 tanks to Europe.
After arriving in Poland, they will be sent straight to Ukraine.
Things are really shaping up in that region.
Our European situation has changed so dramatically for the better and especially when compared to what we were dealing with and largely resigned to 13 months ago.
Bakhmut Holds!
@visegrad24 34m
Ukrainian reinforcements have arrived in Bakhmut in recent days and are now counterattacking the Russians, successfully pushing them away from the crucial T0504 road (vic. Ivanske) leading into Bakhmut.
Heavy fighting ongoing with a lot of heavy equipment involved on both sides.
@visegrad24 3h
The internationally wanted criminal Vladimir Putin arrived to Mariupol, Ukraine under the cover of darkness last night.
He recorded a few propaganda videos with some paid actors pretending to be locals and then quickly escaped back to Rostov, Russia.
The Balkan War is over, Kosovo is independent, and Serbia does not need Russian Military support any more.
@JosepBorrellF (EU official) 16h
We have a deal
Kosovo and Serbia have agreed on the Implementation Annex of the Agreement on the path to normalisation of relations
The parties have fully committed to honour all articles of the agreement and implement their respective obligations expediently and in good faith.
