Ukraine: The Russian-Belorussian armies is slowly advancing in Ukraine

Zelensky doesn’t believe in the positive outcome of the negotiations with Russia. “But let them try, so that no citizen of Ukraine doubts that I, as president, tried to stop the war when there was still a chance, however small,” he said in a video address” (The Kyiv Independent, 27.02.2022).

On the 4th Day of invasion of Ukraine from the Russian Federation and Belarus. There been talks of a peace-talk or a meeting on a border point between Ukraine and Belarus. We know nothing about this meeting or what the parties will do.

What we do know is that Belarus President Alexander Lukachenko promised “cease-fire” and no involvement of his forces in the conflict before and during the talks. However, there is reports of Belorussian paratroopers and in addition this:

“Belarus missile ruins historical building in Chernihiv. According to the UNIAN news agency, it was an Iskander ballistic missile system that was fired from Belarus and hit the 1939 building in central Chernihiv, a regional capital 150 kilometers north of Kyiv” (The Kyiv Independent, 27.02.2022).

So, it is not like the Russians and Belorussians are avoiding casualties or critical damage of Ukraine. This is clear indication by this reporting, as Belorussian army is just sending far away missiles to target Ukraine.

While the Russian armies are not really advancing or gaining territory. As there are reports of lacking logistical support and big losses on the front-lines. The Ukrainian forces is repelling the Russians on the front with huge losses of vehicles, weapons and manpower. Clearly, the Russian President Vladimir Putin is disappointed and reported to use the “nuclear option” to strike more fear. Because, the war isn’t going to plan…

The Ukrainian government is getting more united support from the world. While the Russians are becoming more alone and only has few selected allies who helps or even support their cause in the war.

Alas, here is the proof of the failure and quagmire of the Russians inside Ukraine:

MOSCOW, February 27. /TASS/. Troops of the Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR) have successfully advanced four more kilometers into the enemy’s defense, Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman Igor Knashenkov said on Sunday. “Troops of the Lugansk People’s Republic backed by supporting fire of the Russian armed forces have advance to a distance of four more kilometers into the enemy defense. Troops of the Donetsk People’s Republic have overcome the resistance of nationalist units and advanced six more kilometers. The settlements of Nizhneye, Granitnoye, and Gnutivo have been liberated,” he said. According to Konashenkov, Russia’s forces have hit 1,607 Ukrainian military infrastructure facilities since the beginning of the special military operation on February 24” (TASS – ‘LPR troops advance four more km into enemy defense – Russian defense ministry’ 27.02.2022).

We are seeing a murky way ahead. The war is continuing and the allies of Putin is coming to his aide. This being Belarus who are using their army and forces too. European allies are sending arms, weapons and monetary reports to Ukraine. So, they are not fighting alone and it’s evident. As Russia is becoming more alone and has less option across Europe. This war is going to cost Russia and who knows what price. While Ukraine is fighting to be a sovereign and an independent nation, which we hope and pray that it will continue to be. Peace.

BTW: The resistance and resilience of the Ukrainian people is admirable. They are the heroes and the ones who is fighting a just fight. Their cause is righteous, as an imperialist and a dream of reviving the USSR is imposed on them. Where the Ukrainian people are supposed to just give way and let Moscow rule supreme. That is what Putin wants and he wants to control the sphere of Kyiv. Therefore, the Ukrainian citizens and soldiers needs the support of the rest of Europe. They are fighting for their freedom and liberty. Which we cannot forget here. The Russians and Belorussians are the invaders trying to take away what is rightfully theirs. Peace.

Opinion: Putin orders the ‘nuclear option’

Mr Putin ordered the Russian defence minister and the chief of the military’s General Staff to put the nuclear deterrent forces in a “special regime of combat duty. “As you can see, not only do Western countries take unfriendly measures against our country in the economic dimension. I mean the illegal sanctions that everyone knows about very well, but also the top officials of leading Nato countries allow themselves to make aggressive statements with regards to our country,” Mr Putin said on state television” (Naomi O’Leary – ‘Ukraine invasion: Putin orders Russian nuclear deterrent forces on alert as troops enter Kharkiv’ 27.02.2022, The Irish Times).

If you thought Russian President Vladimir Putin would make things better. I hate to bring it to you, but your wrong. The Russian Federation and Belorussian allies are evidently in need of all types of weaponry to win the war in Ukraine. It is possibly humiliating that the Russian army isn’t advancing enough inside Ukraine.

We are clearly seeing that Putin has no sort of tact or afterthought of the possible damage or suffering he can ensure others. It is not a sane man’s choice to use nuclear weapons. That shouldn’t be anyone’s selection of weapon. However, Putin is there already and shows what his willing to do.

Kremlin and Putin should understand the implications of this. He is putting a new Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the table. Which was a horrific act in the end of the Second World War. It is like Putin has taken no lessons of the past, but only wants to repeat the sins of the past.

The warfare in Ukraine is bloody and filled with atrocities already. The war is already causing damage, pain and suffering of which words is hard to describe. Therefore, Putin seems to be more preoccupied with total victory. Since he has ordered this ‘nuclear option’.

It also shows what sort of mindset Putin has, as he see it as a viable option and a means to win the war. That he wants to use and orders the nuclear weapons for combat duty. This shouldn’t be a thing, but in 2022 there is nothing that Putin isn’t willing to do.

That he orders this and puts this on the table. Says a lot about his character and willingness to win at this point. This could be used as a tactic to create more fear and panic. However, he did on national TV and for everyone to know. That says a lot really.

We might live in a time with an another “fat-man” is dropped and I hope that would never happen in my life-time. Nevertheless, with the likes of Putin. You never know. His apparently willing to do anything to get his way. Peace.

Ukraine: ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Statement on the Situation in Ukraine (26.02.2022)

Ukraine: Europe is starting to show some direct support of Kyiv

Just as the third day of invasion of Ukraine is ending. It is nightfall and darkness over the Republic. The reports from Europe and Ukraine is clear. There isn’t only symbolic support on the horizon for the Ukrainian government. The European nations, European Union and Northern Atlantic Treaty Organization is starting to aide the Ukrainian army in need.

The Ukrainian army is already standing strong against a superior enemy, which has both a massive amount of soldier, tanks and mechanical divisions. The Russian army should be far superior by any stretch of the imagination. Still, the Ukrainian forces and resistance has kept the Russian at bay. Yes, they have lost territory and had to give up some. However, in comparison to how the Russian was supposed to outflank and overcome them. The Ukrainian troops and people have shown resilience and resistance of epic proportion. However, it will only become more important in the days ahead. Since this is the beginning of the war and Russia wants a total victory.

Still, in these grim times. There is now proof that European nations and leaders are not only sanctioning Russian businesses, oligarchs and high ranking officials. They seem to take the hard sanctions and the ones that can hurt money-transactions and banking operations directly. Meaning, the only thing missing is rating agencies and other making government into junk-status and unworthy of trading. Nevertheless, there is some more actions than “our thoughts and prayers”.

What we are also seeing is that Belgium, Netherlands, Slovakia, Germany and plenty of other European allies of Ukraine is sending military equipment, technical equipment, ammunition and weapons to the Ukrainian army. This is the boosting it needs, as the NATO allies and EU are not sending soldiers to participate in the war. Which means this is the most vital contribution it can. Where the European allies are securing and adding weaponry to the defending nation, which faces an invasion. That’s the good news here.

Kyiv did seem alone, as NATO and United States was only boosting the neighbourhood and allies with borders to Russia. Now many of them is sending and trading weaponry with Ukraine. This gives them a needed boost and additional fire-power. Which is so vital. The Ukrainian is already using urban guerrilla warfare tactics and resistance, which will be the most important weapon it has. As they are defending the Republic on their own soil and homestead. Therefore, the Russians shouldn’t underestimate the sentiment of the Ukrainians and their love for their fatherland.

At least there are positive news, as well, as big package of military assistance from the Untied States on the way to Ukraine. All of these weapons, ammunition, heavy weaponry and others will help in the continues battle towards Russia. It shows that there isn’t just flattering calls with superpowers and allies, but actual substantial support. There is a need of this and it’s evident. As the air-raids and other actions are done by the Russian army on the front-lines.

We can finally say that Europe haven’t abandoned Ukraine and only sent them “good thoughts”. There haven’t only been condemnations and some symbolic sanctions or not allowing Russia to participate in Eurovision. However, there are now some signs of real genuine support of the war-effort. This has to prolonged and not only a one-time drop of assistance. There is a need of a systemic support and in a manner of which strengthen the Ukrainian army.

Still, we should be happy to see some sincere movements and acts, which gives the proper support the Ukrainians need. Now there will also be a serious need of humanitarian assistance and shelters for internally displaced persons. There will be a severe crisis, which will be worse by every single day. It will need vast support and logistics to get working. Therefore, we need to see more European solidarity towards everyone in need. Peace.

Ukraine: Russia will use “panic” as the main weapon in the takeover Ukraine

Russian propaganda has gone off the rails and speculates Ukraine might be preparing to drop a ‘dirty bomb’ on the Russian territory. This is a sick fake. Ukraine doesn’t have nuclear weapons, doesn’t conduct any work to create/acquire them. We are a responsible member of the NPT” (Dmytro Kuleba, 26.02.2022).

We are now on the 3rd Day of Invasion from the Russian Federation in Ukraine. As the Russian and allies have used all means to attack the Ukrainian territory. While trying to vilify the Kyiv leadership and government of Ukraine. This is clearly not working.

The Russian Federation and their cronies will use all propaganda tools to undermine the Ukrainian efforts to save their independence and sovereignty as a state. This will be by falsely claiming losses or even show of prisoners of war. There should be expectations of epic spectacles, which cannot be confirmed or denied. As the Sputnik or RT News needs good stories to sell their patriotic patrons as the warfare is continuing in Ukraine.

This is why the recent leak of intelligence says a lot:

Intel from a Ukrainian officer about a meeting in Putin’s lair in Urals. Oligarchs convened there so no one would flee. Putin is furious, he thought that the whole war would be easy and everything would be done in 1-4 days. Russians didn’t have a tactical plan. The war costs about $20 bln/day. There are rockets for 3-4 days at most, they use them sparingly. They lack weapons, the Tula and 2 Rotenberg plants can’t physically fulfil the orders for weapons. Rifles and ammo are the most they can do. The next Russian weapons can be produced in 3-4 months – if even that. They have no raw materials. What was previously supplied mainly from Slovenia, Finland and Germany is now cut off. If Ukraine manages to hold the Russians off for 10 days, then the Russians will have to enter negotiations. Because they have no money, weapons, or resources. Nevertheless, they are indifferent about the sanctions. Alpha Spec Ops have been near Kyiv since the 18th February. The goal was to take Kyiv and instal a puppet regime. They are preparing provocations against innocent civilians – women and children – to sow panic. This is their trump card. Russia’s whole plan relies on panic – that the civilians and armed forces surrender and Zelensky flees. They expect Kharkiv to surrender first so the other cities would follow suit to avoid bloodshed. The Russians are in shock of the fierce resistance they have encountered. The Ukrainians must avoid panic! The missile strikes are for intimidation, the Russians fire them at random to “accidentally” hit residential buildings to make the attack look larger than it really is. Ukraine must stay strong and we must provide assistance!” (Riho Terras, 26.02.2022).

If these things are true. It is really special, as everything has seemed as a well planned effort. Since, Russian Federation had ordered the war and troop movement weeks ahead of the invasion. The Russians was already inside Crimea, Belarus and all around encircling Ukraine. Therefore, this sort of intelligence says a lot.

If all of this has some facts behind it. The Russians needs a quick and brief victory in Ukraine. They need vast annexation and takeover. That makes sense of why Putin has twice asked the Ukrainian forces to lay down arms and the let the Russians overthrow the current government. This is one of the things that make sense. Since it is costly to wage the war and also get the logistics around it to work. As well… as the needs for imports and productions of military equipment isn’t just a straight forward enterprise. Which is also described in this intelligence.

Well.. we shouldn’t be shocked that the Russians wants to thrive on panic and fear. That is a vital tool of population control and typical of any aggressor. The Russians would then thrive on it and get the people to abide by their imposing regiment. That is very clear and no one should be in awe because of it. This would be a phycological way of warfare and the propaganda was supposed to work for the army. In such a manner, that the public is ready to give way and give up to the invaders. Which we know isn’t the case, as the resistance and the Ukrainians are now preparing themselves for war on all fronts. Because, they want to defend their nation against the aggressor.

Clearly, we will see if all of the information in the intelligence will happen. However, it is a striking revelation and interesting reveal. As it can set a stage on the ways ahead. Especially, how the next few days will be and how the truth might drip out. Because, maybe Russia is not as strong as they have tried to boost themselves out to be. Peace.

Ukraine: Putin and Lavrov’s lies about the leadership in Kyiv

Russian President Vladimir Putin appealed to the Ukrainian military and urged them to “take power into their own hands”, because the Ukrainian people were allegedly captured by ” a gang of drug addicts and neo-Nazis.” (…) “Take power into your own hands. It looks like it will be easier for us to come to terms with you than with this gang of drug addicts and neo-Nazis, who settled in Kiev and took the entire Ukrainian people hostage, ” he said” (Daria Kolesnichenko – ‘Lies from the Kremlin. “A gang of drug addicts and neo-Nazis captured the Ukrainian people” – Putin’s new crazy speech’ 25.02.2022, The New Voice of Ukraina).

Just as the invasion of Ukraine is happening on its second day. President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is now working hard to demonize and to vilify the elected leadership of Kyiv. That is done to legitimize the invasion and reasons to overthrow President Volodymyr Zelensky.

We are seeing the reasoning and rhetoric by the President. From the earlier messaging and such, it isn’t new… as we know Putin doesn’t value the statehood from Ukraine. Neither does Putin respect or value the government of Ukraine either. Therefore, these sorts of statements just shows what sort of excuses he has to overthrow Zelensky.

Lavrov’s statement today:

All these years, the Kiev regime with its openly Russophobic and genocidal policy scoffed at the people from your republics, targeting them with its firepower year after year. Former Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk referred to the people of Donbass as “non-humans.” President Vladimir Zelensky picked up this baton not that long ago. He called your people a “species” and demanded that all who identify as Russian or related to the Russian culture or language get out of Ukraine and move to the Russian Federation. All these years, our Western colleagues have consistently protected the Ukrainian regime by turning a blind eye to war crimes against civilians, the killing of women, children, the elderly, and the destruction of civilian infrastructure. Through their silence, they encouraged the onset of rampant neo-Nazism and Russophobia, which in the end resulted in tragedy for the country” (The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation – Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s opening remarks during talks with Foreign Minister of the Lugansk People’s Republic Vladislav Deinego and First Deputy Foreign Minister of the Donetsk People’s Republic Sergey Peresada, Moscow, February 25, 2022).

We are seeing what they are willing to say and do. They are doing this and just to justify their invasion. Which is a direct order from Kremlin and President Putin. This is deliberate act to make the Ukrainian government into a monster, which needs to be taken down. However, there is no proof of this and justification. It is direct propaganda to feed the masses.

That Putin and Lavrov says these things only shows what they are willing to do. They are willing to say and publish these lies. Where they are capable of spreading this malice and thinking people will believe this. They are saying this to make it seem reasonable to invade Ukraine. While there is no proof of that and only allegations, which could be easily be refuted. Peace.

Opinion: Russia sends a stern warning to Sweden and Finland

Amid the ongoing Russian military operations in Ukraine, the country’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Friday that Moscow will have to respond if Sweden and Finland become NATO members. “All OSCE member states in their national capacity, including Finland and Sweden, have reaffirmed the principle that the security of one country cannot be built at the expense of the security of others. Obviously, the accession of Finland and Sweden to NATO, which is primarily a military alliance as you well understand, would have serious military and political consequences, which would require our country to make response steps,” Zakharova told a briefing” – (Nitin J Ticku – ‘Russia Sends Bone-Chilling Message To Sweden & Finland; Threatens ‘Military Implications’ If They Go The Ukraine Way’ 25.02.2022, The Eurasian Times).

On the 22nd February 2022 as the planned invasion of Ukraine was underway. Russian President Vladimir Putin sent his warning remarks to any of the former Soviet Republic (USSR) that the Russian Federation would act in the same way towards them, as they are doing to Ukraine. Meaning, if they went away from Moscow and Kremlin dominance. They might get invaded and conquered too.

Today on the 25th February 2022, as it’s the second day of official full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is re-affirming this, but also taking it a step further. They are not only targeting the former USSR Republic, which has been liberated from Russia. No, they are now sending threats to the Kingdom of Sweden and Republic of Finland.

This is really showing the imperial ambitions of the Russian Federation. As anyone on the border, which happens to be close to the West or have any sort of furthering alliance. Could easily become a target and get into an impending war. That is the message Kremlin and Moscow is sending. They are now waging the same threats towards these two European nations as well.

The Russian Federation and ruling regime is willing to do this. This is the message of Putin and what he orders to happen. As he wants to have total control and Russian friendly government all around him. That is the message here.

Just as we are seeing the military invasion of Ukraine. All of it’s dire consequences and devastations. The atrocities and the pure violence that is inflicted on innocent civilians. The armies are now killing, destroying and furthering destruction of Ukraine as we know it.

When that is happening at a rapid speed… they are now doing this to Sweden and Finland. Just like the former USSR republic before the invasion. This now shows what Putin is willing to do. The world should take this serious, as they have made actions out of similar warnings already in Ukraine.

So, Putin and his cronies in Kremlin could easily do this again. They are already pulling it off and now… Europeans should wake up as there is a danger and Ukraine could only be the beginning. Peace.

Ukraine: Europe has left the Ukrainians alone in their battle against Russia

Zelensky: “In all countries, in all cities, take the streets and demand peace for Europe, peace for Ukraine.” (…) “If you in Europe have military training and don’t want to look on the indecisiveness of your politicians, you can move to our country and together with us, defend Europe, where it’s much needed.” (The Kyiv Independent, 25.02.2022).

It is evident today. This is the second day of official invasion of Ukraine from the Russian-Belorussian forces within Ukrainian territory. There is reports of Russian forces are entering Kyiv and also attacking other strategical points of the Republic.

This is being done, while the United States of America (USA), European Union (EU) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) are doing mediocre sanctions on the Russian Federation. While the Western powers are only re-directing their armies to allies in the East and on the borders towards Ukraine. This is not helping Ukraine, but is a detergent against a further escalation in Europe.

President Volodymyr Zelensky who has offered everyone who wants guns to defend their Republic yesterday. Is today calling for volunteers and foreign conscripts to stand by their side. As the European nations and neighbours are not directly participating on their side.

We are now seeing the Ukrainian republic is left alone. There is official news of Russian hit-lists on Ukrainian targets and high ranking officials, which the Kremlin and Russian authorities wants to get rid off. As they are doing this to impose their “government” and a “ruling regime” of puppets in Kyiv.

Towns and cities are being bombed. Military targets are gone after and civilian are targeted as well. The citizens and civilians are getting in the cross-fire. The Russian army isn’t caring about the costs or damage they causes. They are just in it to destroy and annihilate the Ukrainian republic.

What we are seeing is the worst sort of warfare in Europe since the WW2 and it’s devastating. That they are left behind and alone. As Ukraine was never accepted or able to get into the alliances, which could have saved them now. Since, Russia wouldn’t have dared or done it in the same manner, if they had practically the rest of the West behind them.

It is a tragic day and innocent is dying. There are many who cannot flee or able to get into refuge elsewhere. There is many refugees and asylum-seekers who have already crossed into bordering countries. While the bombing and warfare is continuing.

This is a humanitarian disaster and a horrific time for Ukraine. It is a crisis for Europe and they have left the Republic behind. That is the tragic reality in this. They have only done symbolic efforts and sanctions, which the Russians had prepared for. Therefore, they will not stop the war or the conflict. They are in it to takeover and settle old scores.

This is Putin’s war and he wants his control over Ukraine. That’s why the armies are all-over Ukraine. Peace.

Ukraine: Address by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky (24 February 2022 – 18:01)

Citizens of Ukraine.

What do we hear today? It’s not just rocket explosions, battles, the roar of aircraft. It is the sound of a new Iron Curtain lowering and closing Russia away from the civilized world. Our national task is to make this curtain pass not through our Ukrainian territory, but at the home of Russians.

The Ukrainian army, our border guards, police and special services stopped the enemy’s attacks. In the language of conflict, this can be called an operational pause.

In Donbas, our Armed Forces are doing great, the Kharkiv direction is very difficult, the forces for the defense of the city are working, they are reliable, they are our men. The most problematic situation today is in the south. Our troops are fighting fierce battles in the suburbs of Kherson. The enemy is pushing out of the occupied Crimea, trying to advance towards Melitopol.

In the north of the country, the enemy is slowly advancing in the Chernihiv region, but there are forces to hold it. Reliable defense is built in the Zhytomyr region. Enemy paratroopers in Hostomel are blocked, troops are ordered to destroy them.

Yes, we, unfortunately, have losses, losses of our heroes. Yes, we have captured Russian soldiers. Our doctors are helping some of them – those who have surrendered. Many Russian aircraft and many armored vehicles were destroyed.

Yes, we see that many Russians are shocked by what is happening. Some Russians are already calling on social media that they are against the war. We see it. But the leadership of the Russian Federation is unlikely to see it.

So please.

If you hear us, if you understand us, if you understand that you are attacking an independent country, please go out to the squares and address the President of your country.

We are Ukrainians. We are on our land. You are Russians. Now your military has started a war. The war in our state. I would very much like you to speak on Red Square or somewhere else on the streets of your capital, in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other cities in Russia. Not only in Instagram – it is very important.

What do we see at this hour? For the world community, Russia is becoming an analogue of the so-called DPR – this is complete isolation.

I am in constant contact with the leaders of partner countries and international organizations. Russia has already begun receiving the first sanctions from a large package of sanctions, the most powerful in world history.

No one will be able to convince or force us, Ukrainians, to give up our freedom, our independence, our sovereignty. But it seems that the Russian leadership is trying to do this by destroying the potential of their country. Everything that Russia has done since 2000 can now be burned live in front of the world.

We emphasize that Ukraine did not choose the path of war. But Ukraine offers to return to peace.

What can Ukrainians do? Help the national defense. Join the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and territorial defense units. Any citizen with combat experience will now be useful. It is up to you and all of us whether the enemy will be able to advance further into the territory of our independent state. Please help the volunteer community and the medical system, for example by donating blood.

Politicians and community leaders – help people, ensure normal life on the ground as much as possible. Everyone should take care of their loved ones and take care of those neighbors or acquaintances who need it. The duty of journalists, an important duty, is to defend democracy and freedom in Ukraine.

I spoke today with many leaders – the United Kingdom, Turkey, France, Germany, the EU, the United States, Sweden, Romania, Poland, Austria and others.

If you, dear European leaders, dear world leaders, leaders of the free world, do not help us today, then tomorrow the war will knock on your door.

Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine!

Glory to Ukraine!

A memo on our dark times

And we are alive in amazing times

Delicate hearts, diabolical minds

Revelations, hatred, love and war

And more and more and more and more

And more of less than ever before

It’s just too much more for your mind to absorb

It’s scary like hell, but there’s no doubt

We can’t be alive in no time but NOW” Mos Def – ‘Life in Marvellous Times’ (2008)

Things will only get worse before it get better.

A war that we’re seeing in Ukraine will not cause things to get greater. Instead, things will only become more hostile and dire. European Union (EU), Northern Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has to act swiftly as a European sovereign nation is invaded by a hostile force, which happens to be the Russian Federation.

Things will not get better, soon. No, it will not. Not as long as the weapons are used and people are dying in a conflict, which has been ordered by one man and his tyranny. No, the time we are living in now. We are living in the effects of one man’s will over another nation.

This is Putin’s war and nobody else. Yes, he has army commanders and cronies who helps him. The oligarchy and grand supporters. Still, it is his decrees and orders, which is the reason behind the war in Ukraine.

We in Europe are seeing what is happening. It is happening so close to the shores of other European nations. The fear is spread in the Baltic nations, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia. While Poland, Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria and even Turkey will call this all out. As Ukraine is all surrounding them and the Russian warfare is getting close to home.

That’s why this is a dark time. It is only the moon on the sky and the rest of dwindling lights is going away. As lives are taken and innocent lives are touched by one man war against another.

We will see markets crashing, spikes in prices and collapses of businesses. We will hear of lacking cereals, lack of wheat and whatnot. The Ukrainian forces will be marginalized … and be brutally slaughtered to the Russian army.

Europe will be altered for decades because of this. This war will make the tables turn and people will suffer. Especially in the Ukraine, but also in Russia. The innocent civilians … are the ones who is losing here. The ones who get caught in cross-fire.

The Russian Federation has decided this path and now things will change elsewhere. People will take sides and the war will show, which sides you are on. This war isn’t only on the sovereignty of Ukraine, but on European values. That’s the bleak reality here. As Putin has decided to be the judge, jury and the executioner at the same time.

We are living in dark times and it’s not getting brighter. The light is dim. There is still hope, but we have to be unified against the forces, which comes with ill and stand up for the rights, liberties and freedoms of brothers who are under siege by invaders.

Putin does this, but we shouldn’t accept it… and neither should anybody else. Peace.
