"If you imagine what will happen if Russia wins, we'll all be fucked. That's a hell of a f**k," American actor Sean Penn said at the Berlin International Film Festival after the premiere of his documentary Superpower.
The film focuses on Vladimir Zelenski and the war in Ukraine in general. "This war is not one that the West can allow Kiev to lose, and that argument is at the heart of the idea behind my film," said the Hollywood actor.
Penn appears in the film as an inquisitive journalist, interviewing government and public figures as well as experts, soldiers, ordinary citizens, and war victims.
"All of us, as Americans, have to take on a sense of shame that we didn't scale up weapons sooner," Penn said after the film's premiere.

Whatever the outcome of the war, Ukraine's future is likely to remain uncertain for years to come. If its economy falters (to which a devastating war inevitably leads), then Ukrainian democracy will also begin to crumble, warns The Economist.
The paper writes that the Russian army, according to its generals, could rebuild its ground forces in three to five years. During this time conditions will ripen for Putin or his successor "to make another attempt" on Ukraine.
Thus, The Economist continues its logic, any peace option would require credible Western security guarantees, long-term arms supplies, and financial aid to Ukraine. "It's as if a second, much larger Israel had appeared on Europe's eastern borders," the publication cites the comparison.
That said, Putin may at some point agree to a ceasefire for reasons of expediency. But in any case, his foreign policy will still be aimed at aggression, concludes the author of the publication dedicated to the anniversary of the start of the war.

๐ช Kadyrov announced plans to create his own PMC after the end of public service
The Wagner PMC managed to achieve impressive results during the military operation in Ukraine while doing an extremely difficult part of the job, Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov said in his telegram channel.
"Without a doubt, this kind of professional formation is needed and necessary. So I'm seriously planning to compete with our dear brother Yevgeny Prigozhin in the civil service, and to set up a private military company," Kadyrov said.
Kadyrov stressed in his message that the line under the talk about the need for PMCs has been drawn and the Wagner has already proved its effectiveness.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni will pay an official visit to Kiev on 21 February, the Italian publication Il Fatto Quotidiano has reported.
Her plans include a meeting with President Zelenskyy and the announcement of the sixth military assistance package, in particular the provision of SAMP-T missile defense systems together with France. The media are not giving other details about the aid package. However, it is already known that Italy will not provide Ukraine with tanks because it has a small number of them in its arsenal. And it is unlikely to talk about fighter jets.
Before she visits Kiev, Meloni will visit Poland, where he will meet that country's Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.

Briefly on the situation on the Svatovo-Kreminna front, Zhuravka gully area.
Today the assault troops of the 3rd motorized infantry division fought hard for the enemy strongholds (yesterday and the day before the AFU tried to attack in the same place).
One of the strongholds where the most severe battle was, our fighters managed to break in and seize it. Enemy personnel were killed, and two AFU soldiers (they are treated with tea in the video) surrendered to the Black Mamba assault troops. In war, people have a good sense of humor, no matter what they think on the home front.

Biden violated the U.S. Constitution by undermining North Stream.
What is more damaging to the principle of individual libertyโthe government that secretly commits acts of war or the media that turns a blind eye to them? Right now, the wave of anti-Russian hatred and war drums rumbling in the United StatesโPresident Biden's Americaโhas both of those ingredients, according to The Washington Times.
The bombing of the North Stream pipeline was an act of war committed in defiance of the US Constitution. The author of the article considers the actions of the American leader to be criminal because he attacked Russia and Germany, knowing that there was no reason to do so.

The US presidential administration has urgently demanded that the Ukrainian authorities consolidate their achievements on the frontline and possibly launch their counterstrike, Politico has quoted its sources as saying.
The newspaper stressed that all this was taking place against the background of preparations for Joe Biden's visit to Europe.
It calls that visit "one of the defining moments of the president's presidency.
The White House is also urging Zelensky's team, according to several officials, to prepare for an offensive now, while weapons and aid from Washington and Europe are flowing freely, fearing that support from Ukraine's European neighbors may become limited in the future.
Politico also draws attention to the formulation of the ultimate goals of the offensive. According to the publication, at a closed Zoom conference on Wednesday with outside experts, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that the return of Crimea to Ukraine would be a "red line" for Putin. Apparently, America doesn't want to escalate the situation to that point. But, as Politico notes, in the event of a successful Ukrainian counter-offensive, it would be difficult to deter Ukraine from wanting Crimea back.
Earlier, the Washington Post reported that the US was pressuring Ukraine on an offensive. So, this is not the first such signal from the ocean.
