Kremlin says creation of "buffer zone" in Ukraine needs time
Reuters ^ | 7/10/2024 | Reuters

Posted on 07/10/2024 5:04:34 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

Russia said on Wednesday that its military was still working to create a "buffer zone" in Ukraine's Kharkiv region but this would take time.

President Vladimir Putin said in May that Russia was creating a buffer to protect its border regions, especially Belgorod which lies adjacent to Kharkiv, from Ukrainian attacks.

"Of course, the realisation of this task is time-consuming, it takes time. Work in this direction is under way," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters when asked how long it would take for Russia to guarantee the security of Belgorod.

There's always been an underlying genocidal tone among many of the Ukraine's agitators.

If your honestly so concerned with "genocidal tone", address Russian State tv which constantly de-humanizes Ukrainians calling for genocide.

The leader of pro-Russian militants of Donetsk, Pavel Gubarev, says that Russia will not be able to kill all Ukrainians, so it will have to create concentration camps in Ukraine to "re-educate" the local population.

It’s all Mongol DNA in the “Russian” Federation except for Moscow and St Petersburg.

Your support of the Biden national security team is shameful. Biden, Blinken, Sullivan, Nuland, and Powers got us into this mess in 2014. Our compromised President, quid pro quo Joe, and his drug addled son extorted money from Ukraine. Trump was impeached over Ukraine.

Borrowing money and sending arms to one of the most corrupt countries in Europe weakens our national security. We have no strategic national interests in Ukraine. And we risk an unintended nuclear conflict as we continue to escalate matters. These endless wars must stop.

Like Paul Harvey said: “ Now, the REST of the story “. Where have all the honest reporters gone?

Paul Harvey, “ Paul Harvey Aurandt (September 4, 1918 – February 28, 2009) was an American radio broadcaster for ABC News Radio. He broadcast News and Comment on mornings and mid-days on weekdays and at noon on Saturdays and also his famous The Rest of the Story segments. From 1951 to 2008, his programs reached as many as 24 million people per week. Paul Harvey News was carried on 1,200 radio stations, on 400 American Forces Network stations, and in 300 newspapers.”….also to note he was a Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient.

Fascinating story was his life. No reporter can ever come close.

Project Ukraine was a western financial and economic hegemony designed to enrich the west at the expense of the Ukrainian people. It was no different from how the west operates in Africa. Own the political power and buy cheap all rights or property under western management.

Biden admin used two Ukrainian Jewish origin people in Blinken and Nuland to focus personnel vendettas as US Foreign policy and push ethenic grievances into war, thereby forcing Ukraine to finance and further transfer any value in Ukraine to western interests. The west used Ukraine to rearm itself by selling old arms to Ukraine, a 10 year military build up before the war. Ukraine is a vasal indebted state whose entire government sector is paid wages by Washington.

Project Ukraine was corrupt and Burisma/Biden was early on a warning signal. The west is fighting in Ukraine to keep its investment. The Bitcoin ETFs were only approved as a measure to allow the USGs policy investors like Blackrock to balance their profolio due to impending loss of Billions in Ukraine.

India and Saudi Arabia news show NATO sanctions have failed. The economic shake out is destroying US economic hegemony and Brics is going to represent the country’s avoiding Sanctions and seizures of assets, or essentially the west is too rich for them to be invits economic system. Theose developing countries are more economically aligned. The US and EU have misused Sanctions and have isolated themselves. China, India, Saudi Arabia, and many countries are breaking with the US economic hegemony and military backing.

All US talk about future conflicts are and have been over economic control. The globalists in the west have failed to capture the world, and Ukraine is the situation which has broke the US as the sole leader in the world.

Ukraine is losing badly. Russia has 300,000 new soldiers, and every six months of training produces 300,000 more. Russia will win.

The US and EU need to get their economies and diplomacy recalibrated to one which is not predicated on using NATO military power to enforce their hegemony. The west needs to stop the endless wars of economic aggression.

Obama successfully took the US down through a series of military debacles, of which one in Syria seems imminent.

It’s over. Russia has won. The only thing left is formal negotiations.
———-
Agreed, but with whom? St Z is no longer the legitimate President ( similar to senile Joe?).

Your Biden gave your Putin the green light to invade Ukraine in a “minor incursion” and Putin’s crappy army screwed up the entire deal.

Does the Ukraine ever accept responsibility for fomenting race hatred, supporting genocide, becoming NATO pawns etc.? Or is it 24/7 finger pointing? Wait...don’t bother. I know the answer.

Sounds like ‘pro-Russian militants of Donestsk’, which may be Eastern Ukrainians tired of being shelled by Western Ukrainians, and Medvedev both recognize there are extensive numbers of Ukrainians who want to shell Eastern Ukrainians or kill them by any means necessary even after Russia wins the conflict. You people have convinced others you want death for them beyond all reason or treaty. So they consider your kind dangerous. If only the Ukraine would stop cultivating ethnic cleansing!

Azov has to be eliminated. They are holding hostages
any negotiations. Zelensky is an obstacle to peace and he is not in a position to seek peace.

The west is taking a huge investment haircut with the new Russian asset management.

Biden’s handlers are in charge of Ukraine. Ukraine is screwed.

I don’t think you comprehend. You simply can not think like a Slav or Russian. The West will never comprehend, casualties mean nothing to Vlad, nor the Russian people, nor the Ukies for that matter.

Fact is Crimea and the ethnic Russian Provinces will never be allowed to be turned over to Ukraine. The Russian people will not allow that. Once that is fully realized, negotiations can begin from that point forward.

Until then, Vlad’s meat grinder will continue to churn.

Not my Biden, your Biden who eschewed diplomacy and challenged Putin’s red line.

You support the Biden policies on Ukraine. I have absolutely no confidence in his national security team. They are leading us over a cliff. We should be calling for a ceasefire and negotiations now. Instead, we are sending more arms and money to Ukraine to pursue an unwinnable war.

Public opposition to the war, domestically and in Europe, will continue to increase. It is only a matter of time that support for this proxy war will dry up. And Zelensky is facing strong opposition at home. He suspended elections, shut down the opposition press, and jailed religious leaders. How can anyone call this corrupt oligarchy of a government the defender of Democracy? He is a tyrant.

We have the leverage to force Ukraine to the table, regardless of who is deemed the leader. A diplomatic solution is possible with face-saving measures for both parties. But stopping the carnage should be priority number one.
