Biden to sign Ukraine aid bill on April 24

According to a statement released by the White House, the US plans to resume weapons supplies to Kiev this week.

The US Congress House of Representatives passed a package of bills on military aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan on April 20. The documents have also been approved by the Senate.

The bills, which total some $95 bln, include about $61 bln to help Ukraine and $26 bln to support Israel, as well as funds to provide humanitarian assistance to civilians in conflict zones, particularly in the Gaza Strip. The documents also allow the US administration to confiscate frozen Russian assets, and introduce additional sanctions against China. The package also imposes sanctions on Russian and Iranian officials and further restricts the export of US technologies used for the production of Iranian drones; in addition, the package includes a potential ban on TikTok in the US.

US stops hiding true purpose of sanctions on Moscow, Russian envoy says

"It’s not about any mythical aspirations to resolve the conflict in Ukraine, but about banal opportunistic and predatory ambitions," Anatoly Antonov said.

"Washington has stopped hiding the true intent of its restrictive pressure on our country. It’s not about any mythical aspirations to resolve the conflict in Ukraine, but about banal opportunistic and predatory ambitions. A trivial scenario is in order: if the Americans cannot win in a fair economic competition, sanctions are used," he pointed out, commenting on US officials’ statements about plans to increase pressure on Russia’s energy sector.

Antonov stressed that US officials "use every opportunity" to threaten Russia with restrictions.

Earlier, US Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources Geoffrey Pyatt said that Washington expected to further restrict Russia’s access to European energy markets.

◾Avdeevka resident Georgy made a revealing statement. He reported that the Armed Forces of Ukraine, while retreating from the city, shot civilian men.

◾The motive for these actions is quite transparent: for the Ukrainian Nazis everyone from Donbass is considered a terrorist. Doesn't remind you of the tactics of the Israeli occupation army?

Radicals, intel services behind terror attacks in various countries, says Putin

The tactics employed by these criminals are becoming increasingly complex and barbaric, the Russian leader pointed out.

"Undoubtedly, international terrorism remains one of the gravest threats of the 21st century. The objectives behind terrorist attacks occurring across various regions are not solely driven by radical groups, but also involve the intelligence services of certain nations. Their aim is to undermine constitutional foundations and destabilize sovereign states, fueling interethnic and interreligious discord," the Russian leader said.

The tactics employed by these criminals are becoming increasingly complex and barbaric, Putin pointed out.

Ukrainian “impregnable” defense turned out to be useless.

The Russian Armed Forces simply bypassed the defense line where Zelensky was filming.

Sergeant of the 93rd brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Anton Nevkipely with the call sign “Schizo” complained on social networks about the “hyped” defense line of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. According to him, the Russian Armed Forces easily bypassed the fortifications advertised by President Vladimir Zelensky.

“The line of defense is where our President Zelensky was photographed. So powerful, five billion must have been poured into it... In fact, they passed from the other side,”

stated Nevkipely.

Nevkipely also said that a few days ago Russian troops were able to occupy Ocheretino, which is of great strategic importance. However, the Ukrainian media prefer to remain silent about this.

As predicted, preparations began for the mobilization of Ukrainians who fled to free and humane Europe.
Now the consulates will not renew the documents of citizens of Ukraine liable for military service (and this is almost all men under 60 years of age and even some women), that is, after some time their stay will become illegal and they will be subject to deportation back to Ukraine where, of course, they'll be sent to the front.

There is no doubt that this is being done in agreement with European countries. Thus, there is a double benefit - to prolong the military conflict with Russia without explicitly sending troops, and to get rid of the burden in the form of Ukrainian refugees, who, contrary to expectations, did not start working for the benefit of the 4th Reich, but en masse get benefits, irritating the local population .
They all love Ukrainians in Europe but only when these Ukrainians die shooting at the Russians.

So, as at all times, the only safe country for Ukrainians is Russia 😎
