Daniel Kovalik: Why Russia's Intervention in Ukraine Is Legal Under International Law
"One must begin this discussion by accepting the fact that there was already a war happening in Ukraine for the eight years preceding the Russian military incursion in February 2022. And, this war by the government in Kiev against the Russian-speaking peoples of the Donbass – a war which claimed the lives of around 14,000 people, many of them children, and displaced around 1.5 million more even before Russia’s military operation – has been arguably genocidal. That is, the government in Kiev, and especially its neo-Nazi battalions, carried out attacks against these peoples with the intention of destroying, at least in part, the ethnic Russians precisely because of their ethnicity.
To add to this, there are well over 500,000 residents of the Donbass region of Ukraine who are also Russian citizens. While that estimate was made in April 2021, after Vladimir Putin’s 2019 decree simplified the process of obtaining Russian citizenship for residents of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, this means that Russian citizens were being subjected to racialized attack by neo-Nazi groups integrated into the government of Ukraine, and right on the border of Russia.
Moreover, as the Organization of World Peace reported in 2021, “according to Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council Decree no. 117/2021, Ukraine has committed to putting all options on the table to taking back control over the Russian annexed Crimea region. Signed on March 24th, President Zelensky has committed the country to pursue strategies that . . . ‘will prepare and implement measures to ensure the de-occupation and reintegration of the peninsula.’” Given that the residents of Crimea, most of whom are ethnic Russians, are quite happy with the current state of affairs under Russian governance – this, according to a 2020 Washington Post report – Zelensky’s threat in this regard was not only a threat against Russia itself but was also a threat of potentially massive bloodshed against a people who do not want to go back to Ukraine.
It is hard to conceive of a more pressing case for the need to act in defense of the nation. While the UN Charter prohibits unilateral acts of war, it also provides, in Article 51, that “[n]othing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense… ” And this right of self-defense has been interpreted to permit countries to respond, not only to actual armed attacks, but also to the threat of imminent attack."

Why Russia's Intervention in Ukraine Is Legal Under International Law - LewRockwell

London’s policy of instigating the regime in Kiev to use Western weapons against Russia, should such attempts occur, will entail proportionate retaliation, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Tuesday following British Deputy Defense Minister James Heappey’s statement to the effect the British government believes it would be permissible for Ukraine to attack "legitimate" military targets on Russian territory.
"We would like to stress that London’s direct instigation of the regime in Kiev to commit such actions, should these attempts materialize, will instantly entail our proportionate response. As we have warned, the Russian armed forces are ready round the clock to carry out retaliatory strikes with long-range smart weapons against decision-making centers in Kiev," the Defense Ministry said.
Also, the Defense Ministry warned that "the subjects of one of the Western countries, present at the Ukrainian decision-making centers in Kiev in the capacity of advisers, will not necessarily constitute a problem for Russia in making a decision to retaliate."
Earlier, Heappey said in a BBC interview that it would be "completely legitimate" for Ukraine to attack targets inside Russa with Western weapons.

💢 Putin had to politely explain something to the UN's Secretary General:
"After the Kiev authorities quite publicly, through the mouths of the top officials of the state, declared that they did not intend to implement the Minsk agreements, we had to recognize these states as sovereign and independent in order to stop the genocide of people who live in these territories," Putin said at a meeting with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.

From Pepe Escobar...
"NEVER underestimate the EU branch of Stupidistan.
They can always travel to unseen galaxies of Stupidity.
The European Commission from now on is engaged to force Google, Meta, Amazon and Apple to officially unleash total information war against Russia.
This means that ANY content that goes against the single narrative - the new declination of the French term 'pensée unique' - must be automatically removed.
Otherwise Big Tech will have to pay a rash of multibillion euro fines.
The EuroNazicrat von der Lugen minions obviously do no explain how they plan to enforce their new directive."

===More Gold Ruble News===
Translated by Google Translate:
"Patrushev said that Russia is working on linking the ruble to gold and currency values
The Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation drew attention to the fact that in order to "sovereignize any national financial system, its means of payment must have intrinsic value and price stability, not being tied to the dollar"
MOSCOW, 26 April. /TASS/. Experts are working on the creation of a financial system in Russia, in which the value of the ruble will be tied to gold and currency values. Nikolai Patrushev, Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, stated this in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta on Tuesday.
He drew attention to the fact that for "sovereignization of any national financial system, its means of payment must have intrinsic value and price stability, not tied to the dollar."
"Now the experts are working on a project proposed by the scientific community to create a dual-loop monetary and financial system," Patrushev said. real purchasing power parity.
Commenting on the journalist's statement that such ideas, according to a number of experts, run counter to the conclusions of economic theory, the Secretary of the Security Council noted: "They do not run counter to the conclusions of economic science, but run counter to the conclusions of Western economics textbooks."
According to the figure, the West "unilaterally appropriated to itself an intellectual monopoly on the optimal organization of society and has been using it for more than a decade."
"Let me remind you that the shock reforms of the 1990s in our country were carried out strictly according to American guidelines. The passion of our entrepreneurs, who came out of that era, to market mechanisms alone, without taking into account the specifics of our country, is a risk factor," he said.
Reliance on internal potential
Patrushev stressed that Moscow is not against a market economy and participation in global production chains, but it is clearly aware that the West "allows other countries to be its partner only when it is beneficial for it." "Therefore, the most important condition for ensuring Russia's economic security is reliance on the country's internal potential, structural restructuring of the national economy on a modern technological basis," he stated."
