Ukraine: Poland offers all their MIG-29 Jets to Ukraine – answering a call but also opening up another door…

The authorities of the Republic of Poland, after consultations between the President and the Goverment, are ready to deploy – immediately and free of charge – all their MIG-29 jets to the Ramstein Air Base and place them at the disposal of the Government of the United States of America. At the same time, Poland requests the United States to provide us with used aircraft with corresponding operational capabilities. Poland is ready to immediately establish the conditions of purchase of the planes. The Polish Government also requests other NATO Allies – owners of MIG-29 jets – to act in the same vein” (Republic of Poland – ‘Statement of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland in connection with the statement by the US Secretary of State on providing airplanes to Ukraine’ 08.03.2022).

The Polish Government are now offering the MIG-29 Jets of their Republic and Defence. In such a manner and at a rate, which should be at relief and huge help of Kyiv. However, the Polish Government and allies are risking a full out war here. As they might become next target of Russian-Belorussian war in Eastern Europe. Since, this can be seen as a participation in the war. However, then is all sales of military equipment, ammunition and help, which the European Union and NATO states has given already to Ukraine.

What is obvious here is that Warsaw is defying both NATO and EU. Heck, Warsaw is acting in cooperation and direct help of Kyiv without the possible recognition of Brussels. Therefore, the next few hours and day will be interesting.

Yes, Kyiv needs this and has asked for this. The President and his speeches has been directed at either a “no-fly-zone” or getting the jets. Now his offered the jets, but this will create a reaction in Moscow. We don’t know if Putin will act upon this or say this is a final strike. He has already sent a warning over talks of NATO cooperation with Sweden and Finland. While also saying financial sanctions is an act of war. Therefore, sending MIG-29 Jets might be interpreted as a direct participation and becoming an ally of Ukraine. So, for Russia it might turn into a Ukraine-Polish war now. I don’t know… but with such a leader as Putin on the throne. It is hard to know what makes him give way and what makes him furious.

Today is the 13th Day of the Russian-Belorussian Invasion. It is evident that the war isn’t going the way Kremlin or Putin wants. The mighty “Z” isn’t winning or advancing at a rapid pace. Neither is there a will of panic or anarchy, which would have been useful for the invading forces. Instead it has been resistance and a will to fight for own sovereignty. While the Russian forces have struggled with logistics and with the urban warfare of Ukraine. This is all clear, while the Russians instead resorts to brutally bombing, using artillery and sending missiles into crowded areas. That’s what you do… when you cannot win on own morale or own strategic judgments.

The Polish government is doing the right for and supporting Ukraine in the hour of need. We know Kyiv needs this … and they have waited for it. This is delivering what Zelensky wants, but we know Putin is going to react to this. We don’t know what he will or act. That is clear here. This is an escalation and NATO will be worried now. Stoltenberg wouldn’t offer this or make a “No-Fly-Zone” possible.

That this happens today. The 14th Day will open up now barriers … and possible new perspectives, which we didn’t see coming. Now, I am awaiting some sort of ramification and reaction from Moscow. However, we cannot know how that will addressed… until it happens. We know that Kyiv will be happy, but they are getting vital air-support and strengthening their defence. They got all the reasons for getting a bargain in the middle of war. Peace.

Ukraine: Civilian casualties as of 24.00 – 7 March 2022 (08.03.2022)

Opinion: Yanukovych is proving the world that his Putin’s little bitch

MOSCOW, March 8 — RIA Novosti. Former President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych appealed to Volodymyr Zelensky with an appeal to stop the bloodshed at any cost. “I am well aware that you have many ‘advisers’, but you personally owe it to stop the bloodshed at all costs and reach a peace agreement. This is expected of you in Ukraine, Donbass and Russia, “the appeal says, the text of which was received by RIA Novosti” (…) ““I want to call out to Volodymyr Zelensky in a presidential and even a little paternal way. Vladimir Alexandrovich, you probably dream of becoming a real hero! But heroism is not ostentatious, it is not about fighting to the last Ukrainian. He is in self-sacrifice, in defeating his own pride and ambitions for the sake of saving people’s lives,” the ex-president said” (RIA Novosti – ‘Yanukovych appealed to Zelensky’ 08.03.2022).

It is the 13th Day of the Russian-Belorussian Invasion of Ukraine. Just like the invasion isn’t going forward in the speed that the Russian need. The advances isn’t as great or the results aren’t to the fitted programme. As it was reported that they needed to take Ukraine by the 15th Day. However, by today’s standing… the amounting battlefields are far from easy picking and neither is the resolve of the Russian army up to par.

It is really interesting that this letter is released in the Russian media, by the man that is the planned Russian successor of President Volodmyr Zelensky. This is the man that Putin trusts and wants in office. Because, he knows his corrupt and a gullible to the interests of Moscow. The letter itself proves that and he defends the Russian invasion of Ukraine here.

He is writing like it is President Zelensky’s fault for the bloodshed and the atrocities in Ukraine. Alas, the Russian army is the invaders and the ones coming in with the army to their territory. It is not the other way around. It is not Zelensky who order the bombing of Ukrainian cities or towns. No, that is the Russian-Belorussian armies, which does that on the regular now. They sending missiles, bombs and heavy artillery into urban areas. Which inflict harm, damage and destruction. That is not Zelensky’s fault, but Putin who has ordered this war.

Viktor Yanukovych is siding with the armies that is invading Ukraine. That is what this letter is implying. He has accepted that Russia can annex and take territory from Ukraine. This isn’t shocking, as he traded away the rights of Sevastopol to the Russian Federation back in 2010. So, this man is willing to trade away all the rights of Ukraine, as long as he has a personal standing and pivotal position in Kremlin. That’s the sort of fella he is and therefore, the letter he has written is tainted. A betrayal of the sovereignty of Ukraine.

While Yanukovych is speaking of heroics, his practically the villain or hired mercenary of Putin. His the pawn on the chess-set and the figurehead of the Kremlin. The former President isn’t loyal to Kyiv or Ukraine. That is so clear and his taunting words is only defending the Russian ideals of the war. Which shows where his heart lays.

He is Putin’s little bit… it is tragic, but that is the reality here. Yanukovych could have been his own man and carried himself. However, that’s the choice his made and it’s evident for the whole world to see. Peace.

Good Neighbors Statement on the Ukrainian Humanitarian Crisis: Urge global community solidarity to protect women and children (07.03.2022)

Jacob G. Zuma Foundation Statement on Russia and Ukraine Impasse (06.03.2022)

Ukraine: Europe needs to listen to the pleas of President Zelensky Part II

Russia just recently launched 8 missiles on the city of Vinnytsya [central part of the country] destroying airport and basic infrastructure.We are repeating every day: close the sky over Ukraine! Close to all Russian missiles, to Russian military aircraft, to all these terrorists. Create a humanitarian air zone. No missiles. No air bombs. We are people, and it is your humanitarian obligation to protect us, protect people. And you can do it, If you don’t do this, if you don’t give us at least planes so that we can defend ourselves, then only one conclusion can be drawn: you also want us to be killed very slowly. Today and Forever” – President Volodymyr Zelensky (Video Address on 06.03.2022).

It is the 11th Day of the Russian-Belorussian invasion of Ukraine. The Ukrainian President Zelensky is looking visibly tired and possibly exhausted. Which isn’t shocking, as the battle-torn republic is beaten on every day by a mightier force. Ukraine is being tested and attacked ferociously. That’s why the President is coming with a new plea to the allies of the West and the United States.

Yes, Europe and United States has added military equipment, military vehicles, drones and ammunition. That is helping the Ukrainian army at this current moment. The added arms and ammunition is helping. As much a the volunteers and freely moved internation conscription to the Foreign Legion. Which is also helping the defence of Ukraine.

However, the steady usage of missiles, bombs and drones of the Russians is damaging the Republic at a rapid pace. The Russian forces are able to target, carpet bombing and destroy Ukraine, one building at a time and one region at a time. This is a slow destruction and assault of the Republic. Which is done by the air-force and the artilleries, which the Russian has at their disposal.

That the European Union, Northern Atlantic Treaty Organization and United States is dismissing the “No-Fly Zone” is just discouraging, as well as not helping the weaker party in dire need. If they do care about the existence of Ukraine. The West and the allies of Europe has to show up with more. Since, the Russian can just slowly destroy and assault Ukrainian territory on the regular. Which is what it is currently doing. Sending missiles, bombs and whatnot against Ukrainian cities.

If you can’t close the sky now, give us a deadline when it will happen. Tell me how many people have to explode? Tell me, how many? I’ll go to count and wait for this moment” (Zelensky, 06.03.2022).

This is the moment and the deaths of Ukraine should be on the conscience of everyone. Since, the “no fly-zone” could save lives. It could effectively save the war-effort and damage the possibilities of furthering advances of the Russian-Belorussian forces within Ukraine. The European and American support is vital now.

The Ukrainian forces been able to stagnate and stop the advances so far. However, it can be less costly and cause less of a bloodbath. If the allies helps out and actually serves these interests. We know Putin already called the sanctions as a declaration of war. Therefore, if that was slightly true. Than the issuing of a “no fly-zone” wouldn’t make any difference to him. However, it would an escalation, which could make things vastly different. That’s why NATO and EU is careful to not do it. Peace.

Ukraine: Russia planned new “People’s Republic’s” in Western Ukraine

The SBU thwarted the Kremlin’s plans for new “people’s republics” in western Ukraine
The “Federal Republic of Ukraine” was to include the following areas:
▪️ Ivano-Frankivsk
▪️ Transcarpathian
▪️ Lviv
▪️ Ternopil
▪️ Chernivtsi

The Security Service of Ukraine detained the organizer and key figures of the network in Ivano-Frankivsk region. According to the intelligence services, they had to recruit more than half a thousand traitors in western and central regions. Armed separatists were to eliminate key security forces and government officials. After that, the regions planned to seize administrative buildings and declare “People’s Republic” as the example of the so-called “L/DPR”, and then unite them into a new under control of the Russian Federation. The SBU found in the organizer had a ready manifesto to the army, security forces and civilian population of Ukraine with the urge to move on their side. In addition, an appeal to foreign states was found about the demand for recognition of the new “republics”” (SBU, 05.03.2022).

In news that is not shocking, as this has been the modus operandi (MO) of the Russian Federation, as a technique and a way of legitimizing invasion of territory. That the Russians would support separatists and other willing of working for the Russian Federation in Ukraine. In such a way to ensure and make further territory legally part of the Russian Federation. Doing that by making parts of the Ukrainian territory into People’s Republics like they did in Donbass. That makes sense and doesn’t sound far fetched.

That GRU agents and other security agents would try to enforce and organize that is reasonable. Since, the same authorities and Russian agents has worked like that in Donbass already. They have already a game-plan and a way of organizing this. That’s why the Russians supported the separatists in Donbass and ensured their “liberation” right before the invasion of the rest of Ukraine. Therefore, this is nothing new, but a continuation of what they already did.

So, when reading this… from the SBU and the Ukrainian intelligence agency… We shouldn’t be shocked, but this is Russian interference and not valuing the integrity of Ukraine. Since the Russian wants to invade and impose their puppets on Kyiv. To make more “People’s Republics” would be a sophisticated way of securing more regions into the Russian Federation through a “referendum” and use the “people’s will” to take it indirectly into the Russian sphere.

The Russians has used this trick already and it is clearly not working. Because, everyone can see their game and their plan. It isn’t legit and the ones participating is just betraying their Republic and motherland. That is really it… Peace.

Ukraine: Was there a rat in the negotiating team?

Ukrainian media have reported the killing of Denis Kireev, a member of the negotiating delegation with Russia, during an attempt to arrest him by the Ukrainian security forces on Saturday. According to Ukrainian media reports and MP Oleksandr Dubinsky, on his Telegram channel, Kireev may have shown resistance during his arrest by Ukrainian authorities, which led to his death. The reports suggested that the attempted arrest was based on suspicion of high treason, however, no official information or comments have been released as of yet” (Al Mayadeen net – ‘Ukrainian media: Member of team negotiating with Russia killed’ 05.03.2022).

It is reported by Ukrainian media and acknowledged by the Secret Service of Ukraine (SBU) that one member of the delegation team of Ukraine have been killed. There is reports that the killed diplomat Denis Kireev held talks and leaked information to the Russian government.

Media: SBU kills member of Ukrainian negotiations team suspected of treason. According to Ukrainska Pravda sources, the man was killed during arrest attempt. “Strong evidence” that he was leaking information to Russia” (The Kyiv Independent, 05.03.2022).

This is not verified, but there are some Glavnoye Razvedyvatelnoye Upravlenie (GRU) accounts online that is saying Kireev died heroically while carrying out his task. If that last report is true. Than the Ukrainian authorities got rid of a traitor. In this regard, former spies has gotten acknowledged in similar manner by the Russian authorities, as Arne Treholt was also said to “carry out this duties” and this follow a pattern.

However, there is little information about this. As the SBU isn’t leaking details or any information on the matter. They have connected Kireev and others together. That is the their demise now. Because, if you try to be a double-agent in war time. There is a possible that the intelligence community catch you and hear they ended a man’s life. Since he possibly leaked sensitive or confidential information to the Russians. Which in the end, cost his life.

Kireev betrayed his Republic and his nation. Peace.

Opinion: Putin you have ill intentions and the skulls of Ukraine speaks louder than your words

There are no bad intentions towards our neighbours. And I would also advise them not to escalate the situation, not to introduce any restrictions. We fulfil all our obligations and will continue to fulfil them. We do not see any need here to aggravate or worsen our relations. And all our actions, if they arise, they always arise exclusively in response to some unfriendly actions, actions against the Russian Federation” – President Vladimir Putin (04.03.2022)

Today’s national address on Russian Television from Vladimir Putin on the invasion in Ukraine. The days are going and going. It has been over a week since the official invasion and the numbers of fatalities are rising. The Russian army and Belorussian allies are sending missiles, dropping bombs and shelling urban areas across the Ukrainian republic. It is not like they coming with roses and humanitarian aid.

No, Putin and his allies are coming with invasion forces to overthrow and get rid of the elected leadership of Ukraine. He does this to get control of Kyiv and the nearby territories of the Russian Federation. Putin and his army isn’t coming with peaceful means, but with destructive and deprecating actions of his army towards the neighbour.

This is all bad intentions, there is no good ones here. Especially not from Moscow and Kremlin. Alas, these words are just infuriating and insulting to human intelligence. The ones believing it must be a fool and haven’t seen a single picture or video released from Ukraine. The burned buildings, shelled-high-rises, destroyed public buildings and people seeking shelter underground. Therefore, it is hard to see any positive vibes from Russia now.

It’s the Russian Federation and allies which has been unfriendly. It isn’t friendly to invade a sovereign and neither try to get rid of their leadership. As there been two reports of trying to assassinate and kill the elected leadership of Kyiv. That has been done by organizations and security groups associated with Kremlin. Therefore, there is no proof of any sort of goodness or well spirited initiatives under the current Putin regime.

I only see death and destruction, if that is seen good intentions… I don’t know about you… but for people like me. That is the definition of bad and ill-willed. That you are sending the army, air-force and navy to invade someone is barbaric and a clear violation of their sovereign rights as a nation. Therefore, Putin has no justification for this. Except he wants to takeover the previous USSR republics and have all influence of that political sphere. This is why Ukraine could only be the beginning. As he has send warnings shots to Sweden and Finland as well….

That’s why Putin is lying here and he shouldn’t be believed. This is fodder for the propaganda machine back home. However, the rest of the world is seeing the wilful acts of his troops in Ukraine. They are shooting, killing and destroying a nation. Just because one man is fearing his lost influence in Europe.

That is the tragedy here. The Ukrainian people are suffering, because one man decided to go war. That isn’t a good vibe or a good idea. No, it is really bad and he cannot defend that properly. Secondly, we are not buying it. Peace.
