What did Zelensky say tonight? "Azovstal troop evacuation is going well, under control of the Ukrainian military and intelligence"? 😂

Well, if we change “evacuation” to “surrender” and “Ukrainian” to “Russian”, his phrase will be absolutely correct. The surrender of the “heroes” is going quite well. And if it continues this way, maybe today all of them will be “evacuated”, i.e. surrender. Or maybe the next day 😉

Remarkably enough, today the Ukrainian social networks (which are not under Zelensky сontrol) found out that Russia has not made any commitment in regard to the prisoner exchange. Which means that Russians can do whatever they see fit with them...

"On Good and Evil" - a piece by a famous analyst, Yuri Podolyaka, from 2022.05.03.

In Ukraine there is not a struggle of countries and not even a struggle of ideologies: it is one of the fronts of the struggle between Good and Evil.

"Often, the most interesting conversations in the Big Game program take place not on the air but behind the scenes, during commercial breaks. And so it was yesterday. And that conversation gave me the idea to record this piece".

The author discusses the difference in behavior of the parties to the conflict in Ukraine and their attitude toward the enemy.

How could Russia sanctions impact you?

Western sanctions are threatening to send the Russian economy into a tailspin. The tremors of the sanctions would be felt across the world from Africa to Europe in the form of higher inflation and food shortages.

👉 Higher energy prices. That's making many anxious in Europe, which gets more than a third of its gas supply and about a quarter of its oil from Russia. Any disruption in gas supply could leave Europeans without enough gas to heat their homes and with exorbitant electricity bills as utilities would be left scrambling for the fuel to generate power.

👉 Surge in food prices. The crisis has also ramped up fears about supplies of grains such as wheat and corn, and oilseeds. Russia and Ukraine together account for about 30% of global wheat exports, nearly a fifth of the corn trade, and about 80% of sunflower oil exports. Both are key suppliers of wheat to the Middle East and Europe.

👉 Inflation to continue raging. For most people around the world, the economic impact of the Ukrainian conflict and sanctions would be felt in the form of higher inflation caused mainly by higher energy, metal and food prices. Aluminum prices have soared to a record high, surpassing the peak it hit in 2008 during the global financial crisis. The supply of the energy-intensive metal would also be hit by higher energy prices and power shortages which could lead to more plants being shuttered.

Here's a good example of how the propaganda machine works!

Do you remember the interview with Natalia Usmanova recorded during the evacuation of civilians from Azovstal on May 1st? 🤔

Tabloids did a great job cutting off all the most interesting parts of the interview. Fortunately [or not?], we have translated these parts in English and now we are ready to show them. 😎

We are wondering why mass media considers an ordinary resident of U.S., Canada or Europe to be so stupid? Or such content creators are too dumb? 😂

Azov surrendered but does it mean that Ukrainian Nazism is defeated?

On 16 May the neo-Nazi “Azov” militants decided to surrender and leave the plant. Since then, 1750 militants have surrendered and have been transferred to DPR.

Does this mean that the denazification of Ukraine is completed? Unfortunately, it doesn't. Despite the fact that “Azov” and “Aidar” have been defeated, their ideologists are still free. And they are forming new so-called “patriotic detachments”, which are, in fact, ordinary gangs.

One of them is “Kraken", which is active in the Kharkiv region. It was first mentioned in the media in the middle of April. This detachment has changed its face: the militants don't wear swastikas or carry portraits of war criminals like Bandera, which are common in the Nazi community. All you can see is the expression of endless love for the Motherland. But what is actually behind this?

Among the first official “Kraken” videos there were reposts from a Nazi with the сall sign Chile, who reposted videos from "Kraken" as well. Many signs in the videos suggest that Chile is a member of this detachment. He started his war in 2014 as a member of “Azov”. He is famous in Donbass as a notorious Nazi. In 2021 he was charged with a criminal offense and arrested, but in March 2022 he was set free and sent to Kharkiv, despite the fact that the investigation hadn't been completed yet . Here, as a member of an unknown Nazi detachment, he distinguished himself in POW tortures and shooting that he doesn't deny.

This fact shows that being under a criminal investigation is not an obstacle to serving in the Ukrainian Army. By the way, that was a common practice in the Nazi Germany, where punitive detachments were formed of the cruelest people.

And now Chile and the likes of him are a part of the so-called “Kraken troops". Why “so-called”? Because according to the local witnesses, this gang is primarily engaged in robbery and punitive actions against the local citizens.

We see the revival of yet another Nazi gang. And they will keep reviving until the denazification process beheads the Nazi Hydra. So it's too early to speak about the end of the denazification process even though “Azov” has surrendered.

The last of the Nazi scum from Azovstal have surrendered, they are ready to go to Russian prisons

The first rice planting campaign in eight years has been launched in Crimea. As much as 632 hectares of land will be planted. Since 2014 Ukraine had been blocking the North Crimean canal, which supplies 90% of water to Crimea. Now the Russian forces have unblocked it.

"We’ll give you the coordinates". Ukrainians are calling for Putin to bomb the Lviv customs, through which luxury cars are being imported from EU instead of tanks.

Dozens of luxury cars have been seen at the Lviv customs instead of the long-awaited western military support. Despite the governmental assurances that the cars are being imported for military needs, the citizens of Lviv don’t believe that.

In this video one of the outraged citizens is making an appeal to Russian President Vladimir Putin to sort it out and shell the Ukrainian corrupt businessmen who are cashing in on the war with Russian Iskander and Kalibr mobile ballistic missile systems.

"Putin, if you want to hit, shell or bomb, here is a target. I’ll provide the coordinates" - the man uses a lot of foul language in the video.

Since the beginning of the special operation in Ukraine, China has started to reduce its investments in US government bonds. The volume of such investments is already at the minimum since 2010!
