"I know Adrian Boke – we hosted him at our Union of Journalists back in the summer. This colleague of ours asks to give him Russian citizenship because in his homeland – the French state threatens him with prison. And of course, our authorities should do this. The same applies to other foreign observers who were present at the referendums and who are also threatened with all sorts of punishments when returning to their countries. Only my friends from Serbia do not have problems at home, all other journalists and observers can have serious problems when returning home."

Risking life and freedom for the sake of the truth about Donbass: foreign journalists ask for protection from the Russian Federation
TASS | Savostyanov Sergey

Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs Andrei Klimov:

"Of course, we need to take care of people who risk their lives, health and freedom because of us. How exactly and to whom to help should be decided by our competent organizations. They are well known. We have public funds dealing with this topic. If we are talking about obtaining citizenship, this must also be borne in mind. But, in my opinion, this work is purely individual: some need one help, others another. I know this firsthand.

I work with people who help us, and then for a number of reasons they find themselves under pressure in their countries, including the establishment of criminal cases. A concrete example is the leader of the Bulgarian social movement "Russophiles" Nikolai Malinov. For the creation of a society friendly to Russia "Russophiles" at the insistence of former US President Donald Trump, a criminal case was opened against Malinov - a case of espionage in favor of certain Russian organizations. As a result, Malinov has been under investigation for several years. That is, Trump is no longer as president, but there is a case. It is worth noting that Malinov defends the interests of Bulgarians in the sense that friendship with Russia is the main factor in the development of Bulgaria as a sovereign and prosperous country.

So are these guys who came to Donbass as journalists, observers or volunteers. Each of them has different situations: in some countries, the attitude towards them, as it was, will remain so. After all, the observers at the referendums were citizens from different states. But people who came from unfriendly countries found themselves in a really unpleasant situation: there really is a direct threat to their life and health.

If we consider the situation as a whole, then there were a little more than a hundred foreign observers at the referendums. In my opinion, dozens found themselves in a difficult situation. Our state can support these dozens of people. After all, these people are directly related to the fact that referendums are held as a purely democratic process. They provided informational and moral and political assistance. That is, by their activities, people contributed to the conduct of legal procedures. And when they did this, they definitely did not do it for Russian citizenship, they did it of their own free will, based on their understanding of what is good and what is bad. But since people in their countries who have their own opinions are persecuted, then our task is to help them.

Risking life and freedom for the sake of the truth about Donbass: foreign journalists ask for protection from the Russian Federation
from the personal archive of State Duma Deputy Sergei Kolunov

"The issue of protecting foreign journalists and observers is relevant. Representative offices of state authorities of the Russian Federation will be opened in the new territories. Perhaps it is worth considering the procedure for a simplified regime for obtaining visas or permits to stay in the territory of the Russian Federation. Today, the work of the media and journalists is very important for us. Journalists also risk their lives by covering the events of the SVO. Let me remind you that in Krasnogorsk there is a monument, the only one in Russia, to a front-line operator. The role of those who cover the hostilities fixes the real history – it is impossible to overestimate!"

Texas says, "There's nukes in Banderastan!" Two days later...

A military expert at the Meeting Places studio said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine had already brought thermonuclear ammunition to Nikolaev and would be ready to detonate it in order to provoke a US strike on Russia ntv.ru/video/2150363/
It is impossible to draw third countries into a local conflict, it concerns the EU, NATO, the USA. We must do everything possible to avoid and prevent this.
It is necessary not to let thoughts about a possible third world war into your head. With the use of all the weapons in the world. The consequences will be incalculable.

Thanks to the people of GB for flushing this turd down the toilet of history. The English version of Biden, now if the American people can do the same to the parasite vermin that rule them - Biden, Harris, Pelosi... Trump.

Tomorrow morning, the friends and comrades of Elia Putzolu in Donbass will say farewell to him. He was a Hero, and Heroes never die. God bless and welcome you, Brother. We will see you again, Bratan. Davai!

Похоже, под завязку "сезона" противник хочет провернуть программу-максимум: взвинчивая обстановку на Херсонском направлении, он снова накапливает ресурс в районе Красного Лимана, очевидно готовясь продолжить наступление. В принципе, если сработало один раз - почему бы не попробовать снова... На угледарском направлении по агентурным сообщениям готовится серия точечных развед-ударов с целью выявить слабые места - тоже не оставляют попыток прорваться...

Но становится всё очевиднее, что наступательный ресурс противника ограничен. Чтобы нарастить потенциал на каком-то направлении - приходится снимать части с других, что при грамотно организованной обороне не несёт особой для него угрозы: хорошее инженерное обеспечение и работа артиллерии на упреждение позволяют ему находиться в обороне и в ограниченном составе.

С нашей стороны пока нет готовности к масштабным действиям - пополнение прибывает, но его ещё предстоит привести к "нормальному" бою. Сейчас мы с противником находимся в разных фазах: его потенциал превосходит наш, но идёт на убыль, - наш слабее, но на этапе подъёма. Важно приложить все усилия и проявить выдержку, чтобы дождаться момента, когда мы с противником "разминемся" и уже мы будем смотреть на него с доминирующей высоты.

From Commander Alexander Khodakovsky today -

It seems that at the end of the "season" the enemy wants to pull off a maximum program: by stirring up the situation in the Kherson direction, it is again accumulating resources near Krasny Lyman, obviously preparing to continue the offensive. In principle, if it worked once, why not try again... In the Ugledar direction, according to intelligence reports, a series of spot reconnaissance strikes are being prepared in order to identify weaknesses - they also do not leave attempts to break through...

But it is becoming increasingly obvious that the offensive resource of the enemy is limited. To increase the potential in some area we have to take off the units from the other ones, but if you organize the defense properly it doesn't pose any threat to it: good engineering support and the work of artillery at preemptive warning allows it to be in the defense and in the limited strength.

On our side we are not yet ready for large-scale actions - the reinforcements arrive but they still have to be brought to "normal" combat. Right now the enemy and I are in different phases: his potential is greater than ours but going down, - ours is weaker but on the rise. It is important to make every effort and show stamina to wait for the moment when the opponent and I will "unravel" and already we will look at him from a dominant height.

⚡️⚡️⚡️ To divert world media attention from the possible destruction by Ukrainian Nazis of the Kakhovskaya HPP dam, British specialists from MI6 have recommended to Zelensky to perform diversionary sabotage of the ammonia pipeline "Tolyatti - Odessa" in the Nikolayev region.

The destruction of the ammonia pipeline is planned for the Bereznevatskiy district, which has more than 15,000 residents.

The destruction of part of the pipe is planned with the use of S-300 air-defence systems. Afterward, the Western media will cover the activities of the rescue of the inhabitants of the nearby villages and traditionally accuse Russia of terrorism.

Preparation for a terrorist attack on the ammonia pipeline is indicated by the actions of the Ukrainian State Emergency Service. Representatives of the State Emergencies Service delivered to the administration of Bereznevatskiy district settlements leaflets on first aid in case of chemical agent poisoning.

It should also be pointed out that a large number of foreign journalists have arrived in Mykolaiv, who according to some reports are to be involved in the coverage of some emergency situation.

Such a strategy of action is not new. The West has been prepared to sacrifice civilians to achieve its goals more than once, especially if they are not citizens of Western countries.

The resumption of ammonia exports was part of the extension of the "grain deal". Incidentally, another ammonia shipment has already been paid for by Occidental Petroleum.

⚡️⚡️⚡️Чтобы переключить внимание мировых СМИ от возможного уничтожения украинскими нацистами дамбы Каховской ГЭС британские специалисты из МИ-6 порекомендовали Зеленскому, провести отвлекающую диверсию на аммиакопроводе «Тольятти – Одесса» в Николаевской области.

Разрушение аммиакопровода планируется осуществить в Березнеговатском районе, где проживает более 15 тыс. жителей.

Уничтожение части трубы запланировано с помощью ЗРК С-300. После этого западные СМИ будут освещать мероприятия по спасению жителей близлежащих поселков и традиционно обвинять Россию в терроризме.

На подготовку к проведению террористического акта на аммиакопроводе указывают действия государственной службы Украины по чрезвычайным ситуациям. В администрации населённых пунктов Березнеговатского района представители ГСЧС доставили памятки о первой помощи при поражении АХОВ.

Также необходимо отметить, что в Николаев прибыло большое количество иностранных журналистов, которые по некоторым данным должны быть задействованы в освещении некой чрезвычайной ситуации.

Подобная стратегия действий уже не нова. Уже неоднократно Запад для достижения своих целей был готов пожертвовать мирными жителями, особенно если они — не граждане Западных стран.

Возобновление экспорта аммиака стала частью пролонгации «зерновой сделки». К слову, очередную поставку аммиака уже проплатила американская компания Occidental Petroleum.
