It’s not the wef. It is Putin. He has waged wars since taking office in 2000.

In his 22 year dictatorship he has ruined Russia and is now, due to his hubris, destroying Russia.

The quickest way you Russians can end the war is by you leaving Ukraine.

2- REVEALED: Russians fleeing Putin’s war are among the thousands at the US border in Mexico

-Russian migrants fleeing the war with Ukraine are seeking asylum in the U.S.
-They are adding to a massive influx of illegal immigration at the border
-Comes after the Supreme Court put a stay on Title 42 until a decision in June
-Russian migrant Igor, 24, is fleeing being drafted into the war with Ukraine and thanked President Joe Biden for allowing political asylum-seekers
-The administration continues to insist that the southern ‘border is not open’

“Russians fleeing from the draft and President Vladimir Putin’s war with Ukraine are joining the hundreds of thousands of migrants claiming asylum in the U.S. by way of Mexico.

Clustered together with migrants from Moldova, Cuba and other Central and South American countries, Russian migrants were seen this week claiming asylum in the U.S. amid a massive surge around the holidays.

One Moldovan migrant said they were told that the ‘border is open,’ according to NewsNation, even though the Biden administration continues to insist to the contrary
‘People should not listen to the lies of smugglers who take advantage of vulnerable migrants, putting lives at risk,’ the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) wrote in a Tuesday evening statement.

‘The border is not open,’ it continued, ‘and we will continue to fully enforce our immigration laws.’

More than 31,600 migrants have fled Russia to the U.S. since Putin invaded Ukraine in late February. This figure includes 12,097 crossings in just a two-month period over October and November, according to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data on encounters.

A Russian migrant who fled to avoid being drafted into the war with Ukraine thanked President Biden for giving people the opportunity to claim political asylum in the U.S.

‘It’s 65-70 percent of people think about that the United States of America is problem No. 1 for Russia,’ Igor, 24, told NewsNation when asked if he likes it in the U.S. so far after he crossed from Mexico into Arizona.

The number of Russian migrants seeking asylum by way of the southern border through Mexico has increased exponentially compared to prior years.

From March to November 2022, CBP encountered nearly 24,000 Russian migrants seeking asylum at the southern border. This figure does not include gotaways who may have evaded CBP detection.

In November alone, Russian migration saw the largest single-month surge in recent history with 5,507 encounters.

In Fiscal Year 2021, CBP only encountered 4,103 Russian migrants, while that figure spiked dramatically to 21,763 in Fiscal Year 2022.

Russians were seen among migrants making fires and standing around them near the border as temperatures dipped below freezing before and after Christmas.

The influx, which saw CBP encounter 8,000 migrants each day along the southern border last week, comes amid confusion over the impending end of pandemic-era Title 42.

Some predictive models show that once Title 42 ends, the number of crossings at the border each day could reach 17,000.

The public health policy was set to be nixed on December 21 – just four days before Christmas – but was delayed due to a Supreme Court order that put a stay on Title 42 ending. The Biden administration requested that the stay be extended to December 27.

On Tuesday, the high court decided to take up a GOP challenge to Title 42 ending, extending the pause on the policy ending until a decision is levied in June.

Then-President Donald Trump invoked Title 42 at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic in March 2020. The policy was meant to prevent illegal immigrants from bringing over COVID-19.

An additional benefit to the policy, however, is that it helped quell the southern border crisis through the midst of the pandemic.

With the Biden administration seeking to end Title 42, Republicans are concerned that there are no other policies or fail safes in place to prevent mass chaos at the border.

Russian Lieutenant General of the Ministry of Emergency Situations Anatoly Yelizarov suffered a serious head injury after a huge chip fell on him from the roof of a non-residential building in Moscow on Initiative Street...
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia has been directly involved in the war against Ukraine since 2014.

For example, InformNapalm recorded https://informnapalm.org/ua/vijskovosluzhbovtsi-69-yi-brygady-mtz-vozyat-gumanitarku-na-donbas-pid-vyglyadom-mns/

as soldiers of the 69th Brigade of the mtz Russian Federation masked under “humkonvoí ксу” of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and brought to the ordlo equipment and supplies for units of the Russian Federation. Under the cover of the “hum convoys of the Ministry of Emergency Situations”

https://informnapalm.org/ua/v-ukrainu-vtorhsia-90-y-humkonvoi-rf/ also worked units of the 108th Airborne Assault Regiment of the Russian Federation and the 22nd Special Purpose Brigade of the Russian Federation.

We remind you that according to the archived study of InformNapalm https://informnapalm.org/ua/3998-2/

significant increases of strange deaths of general staff and top managers in Russia occur during the periods of Russian military campaigns, aggressive wars against neighboring countries.

2. Smartphones To Track Nervous Wagner Recruits On The Ukraine Battlefield, Drones To Execute Deserters
Dec 24, 2022
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB12s7erQCo
Russia’s Wagner Group is at the forefront of the battle for Bakhmut, already notorious for its grinding brutality. Now, a UK intelligence report has revealed the methods used by the Wagner group to ensure its fighters don’t retreat from battle.

According to the report, these methods are being used against the newer recruits, most of who are untrained convicts recruited from Russia’s prisons.

The Wagner Group is using smartphones and drones to tag and track these raw fighters as they move into the battlefield. The UK intelligence report speculates that Wagner operatives who are caught trying to escape or retreat are brutally punished.

The traditional Russian method to push forward unwilling soldiers involves ‘Barrier Troops’ behind them to shoot retreaters, a practice in use since World War II.

“Ukrainian troops battling in the eastern Luhansk region — one of four provinces Russia announced it was annexing after sham referendums — are focusing on Kreminna and nearby settlements. Seizing control of these key logistics points would solidify advances that began in the fall in Kharkiv.”

INTERESTING ANALYSIS

UkraineWorld spoke to Nataliya Sad, spokeswoman for Ukroboronprom State Concern.

Key points – in brief, on the Ukrainian military-industrial complex

🔸 To date, the Western weapons received by Ukraine after the full-scale invasion is less than 50% of the country’s arsenal. This indicates that Ukraine’s defenders are still fighting mostly with Soviet weapons which were inherited from the time of Ukrainian independence. It is a matter of keeping this entire arsenal in combat-ready condition. Many have the impression that creating a new combat unit is more difficult than repairing a damaged one. In fact, everything is the other way around.

🔸 Production had to be moved due to the high probability of missile strikes and had to be carried out of the country. All this slows down the production process. Despite this, over 9 months this year, we have produced seven times more than we did in all of last year, and for some types of military equipment 10-12 times more. We are keeping up the pace because it is clear that enough equipment can turn the tide of the war.

On the best examples of Ukrainian weapons:

🔸 There is no such thing as too many weapons. The more arms, be they - Western, domestic, including modernized Soviet, or captured from the enemy - the greater the chances of a quick victory for Ukraine. The appearance of a single long-awaited unmanned aerial vehicle will not change the course of the war. For this, there would need to be a lot of them, and the production would need to be serialized. For example, when Ukraine faced mass attacks by Russian Orlan drones, it changed the rules of ground movement, camouflage, etc. for our troops.

🔸 The Stugna, a Ukrainian man-portable anti-tank guided missile, was popular with our partners and included in export contracts before the full-scale invasion. During the full-scale invasion, the Stugna in particular turned into an anti-aircraft weapon, destroying Russian rotorcraft, including reconnaissance-strike Ka-52 “Alligator” helicopters. Today, Ukroboronprom has suspended all export contracts and is working exclusively to support the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

🔸 Neptune, the anti-ship missile system which targeted the cruiser Moskva, speaks very loudly, as does the Vilkha MLRS. By the way, the appearance of Neptune in the theater of combat helped to set several records at once. Thus, Russia’s large warship fleet was reduced by 16% in one strike. For the first time in 110 years, Russia lost the flagship of one of its fleets. Moskva became the first cruiser sunk in action in the world in 40 years. The world will give an assessment of the Ukrainian military industry after the end of this liberation war, when it starts ordering our military equipment.

🔸 Today, we are witnessing an artillery war. In the future, we expect unmanned systems to be used in combat. When it comes to artillery, the Ukrainian army fights with Soviet 152 mm and 122 mm weapons. In order to be combat-ready, it is necessary to supply shells. The countries of the Warsaw Pact switched to the NATO standard of 155 mm caliber, which is not suitable for most of the artillery Ukraine uses. That is why we are now producing Soviet-type projectiles.

On rearmament of the Ukrainian Armed Forces:

🔸 This war will rearm the Ukrainian army. We have already launched production for components for Western artillery systems. We are concluding international agreements with our partners which provide not only for joint production, maintenance and repair of existing weapons, but also for joint construction.

🔸 Currently, the reform of the Ukroboronprom concern is underway, which provides for flexible mechanisms of cooperation localizing production of Western weapons inside of Ukraine.

As a future member of NATO, Ukraine will receive military equipment that will help avoid similar wars in the future. Unfortunately, we will not be able to change our neighboring country, but our military-industrial complex must become a safeguard against these wars, so that our children and grandchildren no longer have to fight for the independence and freedom of our country.

The Russians will leave Ukraine as soon as the Ukrainians stop attacking Russian territory, including the newly annexed regions.

There is no scenario where any of that land goes back to being part of Ukraine.

Most of them are home. Very few are in areas not part of the Russian Federation.

The newly annexed land will defended and remain part of Russia.

The Russians will dismantle or take more territory is guarantee the security of Russian territory.

There isn't anything that will change that.

Just because Russia claims territory is no justification for keeping it. There is a strong difference of opinion being expressed on the part of many other people.

It will, of course, come down to force and resources. As of now it does not seem that Russia has these. Especially given its poor social system and leadership. Indeed, the larcenous spirit in which the Russian leadership undertook this adventure is itself an aspect of its deficiencies. Corruption is the seed of incompetence.

Hmm. It seems to me that quite a lot of that territory has already gone back to being part of Ukraine.

This is all BS of course. Russia marched in and stole land belonging to a neighboring country. That is not legitimate, and the Russians have no honorable excuse to consider that land theirs.
