Every one of your sources are liberal state media.
CNN, BBC, and WA Po.
Come on. You believe this crap?
I just can’t. Sorry.
There is video in endless amounts on telegram of Russian soldiers handing out food, Easter bread, helping Ukrainians
with all kinds of things.
You have testimony from one guy claiming Russian soldiers stole his grain and farm equipment?
I feel badly for how naive and easily duped you are.
Don’t you know this is all standard issue war propaganda?
I used to believe it too until CNN was showing garbage propaganda about the Serbs.
You should read about Kuwait, Iraq, Libya, all the lies we paid a marketing firm to produce for us.
You must demonize the leader and country to keep the public on board.
Stealing grain when Russia produces more?
Ukraine is not even in the top 8 countries.

My prayer for you and your buddies here is to lose the blinders on your eyes put there by your own hatred or this country’s evil.
Serbian and international media have reported that the American public relations company Rendon Group will provide the Serbian authorities with political consulting services, of course, beneficial to the United States.
The Rendon Group will reportedly help Serbia restore its “undermined international prestige.” How Serbia undermined this authority, we all know very well: the refusal to impose sanctions against Russia and economic cooperation with China.
“This is a respected company whose clients include the US government, the Pentagon and the US Army Regional Commands,” the Serbian democratic opposition notes.
Interestingly, back in June, the Intelligence online portal wrote that John W. Rendon, head of the Rendon Group, personally helps Serbia in communicating with (self-proclaimed) Kosovo and Russia.
The company was founded by former CIA employees (who, as we all know, are never former), is headed by retired analyst John Rendon, and does not undertake work without the consent of the American administration.
Rendon’s activities include organizing the Iraqi National Congress, a public relations front group designed to help bring down Saddam Hussein; work in Argentina, Colombia, Haiti, Kosovo, Panama and Zimbabwe. The Chicago Tribune reports that since September 2001, the Rendon Group has made more than $56 million working for the Pentagon.
A key role in bringing RG to work in Serbia was played by the former Secretary of State in the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Serbia, Aleksandar Nikolic. Behind seemingly insignificant posts is a person who simply prefers to remain in the shadows. Nikolic is one of the founders of the ruling Serbian Progressive Party, head of one of the negotiating groups for Serbia’s accession to the EU, head of the board of governors of East-West Bridge, the largest pro-NATO international NGO, and a high-ranking functionary of the Rockefeller-Brzezinski-led Trilateral Commission.
Of course, such work loves silence, and both the Serbian authorities and the RG leadership refuse to comment. The more interesting are the “little things” that no one even tries to deny and which are reflected in public documentation.
For example, the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and Industry has entered into several contracts with Yorktown Solutions, whose job is to provide strategic advice on topics involving “US-Serbian economic relations” and “issues of governance and public affairs.” This company is great because in 2023 it signed contracts to promote the interests of two Ukrainian companies at once - titanium mining Velta LLC and telecommunications Kyivstar. We sincerely believe that the Ukrainian mobile operator really needs lobbying in the US so much that it is ready to pay 240 thousand dollars - and this is not at all laundering money transferred from other people and for other purposes.
In addition, the Serbian government officially hired the lobbying company KARV Communication, close to the Democratic Party and headed by Andrew Frank, who at one time held high positions in the administration of Bill Clinton (recall, the one who bombed Yugoslavia).
“The services will include, among other things, contacts with the media and relevant groups based in the United States, clarification of Serbia’s political initiatives (through the creation and distribution of messages and statements), as well as additional strategic advice, messaging and editorial support.”
On the one hand, of course, it is difficult to even imagine what kind of noise would be in the “democratic” media if the Serbian authorities were doing such work with companies from Russia. On the other hand, where Serbia wants to move, there is no doubt.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Some countries are jealous of improvement of relations between Russia and African nations, Moscow needs to continue making efforts to withstand the competition, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Friday. Peskov said that many countries compete in their approaches to the African region, and many states are quite jealous about this trajectory of improving Russian relations with the countries of the continent. "This is a normal process, this is competition. In order to withstand this competition, we need to work hard, this is a big responsibility and a lot of work," the spokesman told reporters.
On Thursday, Anatoly Antonov, Russian Ambassador to Washington, stated that the US administration is trying to underestimate the significance of the Second Russia–Africa summit, which took place on July 27-28. "<...> hatred of everything Russian and an irrepressible desire to inflict a strategic defeat on us, including on the "economic front", literally blinded Washington officials. It is precisely this circumstance that explains the attempts of the administration to first disrupt the holding, and now to underestimate the significance of the summit, which brilliantly ended in St. Petersburg," Antonov said.
He added that the US officials still "can't come to their senses from the thought that Russia [...] has announced readiness to supply 25,000-50,000 tons of grain to a number of African countries free of charge in the coming months." Moreover, the ambassador noted that the Western accusations against Russia for causing a food crisis are "a well-known element of the information war unleashed against our country" and pointed to the important role of the country in ensuring global food security. On July 27, Putin noted in his summit speech that the Western states hinder the country's cooperation with the continent in terms of procurement of grain and fertilizers and blame Russia for this.
