🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡The Russian Ministry of Defense shows the Ukrainian military who surrendered near Lisichansk

Awkward... https://www.cnbc.com/2022/06/23/russias-ruble-is-at-strongest-level-in-7-years-despite-sanctions.html

When you watch this, keep in mind Russia is reporting RECORD wheat harvests for 2022

🇺🇦The Armed forces of Ukraine are preparing a provocation with plague pathogens in Odessa.

This was told at a briefing by the Russian Defense Ministry.

The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine concentrates foreign artillery on the territory of the plague cemetery of the XIX century in Odessa.

If the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation strike at the accumulation of this equipment, Ukraine will spread information about biological hazards.

Kiev is going to blame the Russian army for this incident, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported.

I reported about this, I believe it's in regards to an old burial site

Sorry, this has been bugging me. At 10:13 Sergey Lavrov asked Steve Rosenberg a fair question; "What do you call what happened in 2014 in Ukraine? In Russia, we call it a coup"
To which the BBC journalist replies "I'm the one asking the questions"

Arrogant. Rude. Insulting.
A perfect example of the behaviour, attitude and hypocrisy of the collective West.

To paraphrase the supremely masterful Mr Lavrov "You want to bring Russia to it's knees? Try it".
