Biden on the F-16

"They would not help Ukraine at all. They were not needed."

"As for the supply of everything else, air defense systems, modern tanks and everything that will determine the course of battles in the Donbass in the medium term, all this is already in Ukraine, and a little more will be delivered later."

The hacker group "Joker DPR" reported a serious injury to the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny

MOSCOW, May 21 — RIA Novosti. Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny was seriously injured during a missile attack on headquarters in early May and may leave his post, a representative of the hacker group "Joker DPR" told RIA Novosti, citing agents in the Ukrainian troops.
Zaluzhny stopped appearing in public after a series of strikes inflicted by Russian units on some military installations in Ukraine.

"Information about the state of his health in Ukraine is being blocked at the direction of Western curators so as not to undermine morale, already broken by the loss of Artemovsk. I have serious information about this," the agency's interlocutor said.

"Joker DNR" regularly publishes insiders and secret documents of the political and Kyiv military leadership obtained through data hacking and agents. Western and Ukrainian media have repeatedly confirmed the accuracy of the information laid out by him.

In early May, the head of the NATO Military Committee, Admiral Rob Bauer, announced Zaluzhny's refusal to participate in a meeting of the organization at the level of chiefs of general staff, even in the format of a video conference. Because of this, there were speculations in the media that he could have died on the front line. Nevertheless, Deputy Minister of Defence of Ukraine Anna Malyar hastened to refute reports of the death of the commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian army.

Russia is ready to discuss with Vietnam the use of national currencies in trade

Russia is ready to discuss with Vietnam the use of national currencies in trade, as well as payment for services and cash withdrawals using Mir cards, said Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, who arrived in Hanoi on a visit, at the secretariat.

Restrictions against Russia have caused difficulties in bank payments and disrupted transport and logistics chains, because of this, trade, which has been growing for many years in a row, fell by more than a third last year.

“We are ready to discuss the issues of using national currencies in mutual trade, the possibility of paying for goods and services, as well as withdrawing cash in Vietnam using Mir cards,” the secretariat noted.

Particular attention in the negotiations, which Medvedev will hold with the Vietnamese leadership, is planned to be given to the resumption of direct regular air traffic between Russia and Vietnam. In particular, from June 4, it is planned to launch the Irkutsk-Hanoi flight of the IrAero airline.

"In addition, Russian companies are expressing interest in participating in the construction and modernization of Vietnam's railway infrastructure," Medvedev's secretariat said.

“Particular attention is given to interaction in the fuel and energy sector, including the activities in Vietnam of large Russian economic operators in the core area (Gazprom PJSC, Zarubezhneft JSC, NOVATEK PJSC), and the construction of power generation facilities in the republic. A separate aspect is joint steps on the construction project of the Center for Nuclear Science and Technology in Vietnam,” the secretariat said.

The contract for the creation of the Centre for Nuclear Science and Technology in the Vietnamese province of Dong Nai can be signed by Rosatom and the Vietnamese Institute of Atomic Energy in June, the Russian side proposed to coincide with the opening of the monument to the centenary of the visit to St. Petersburg by the first President of Vietnam Ho Chi Minh.

A site has already been selected for the new centre, its configuration and source of funding have been determined, and a preliminary feasibility study for the project has also been approved.

The construction of centres for nuclear science and technology is one of the main stages in the development of the possibilities of peaceful atom by countries — "newcomers" in this field.

The main elements are a research reactor and/or an accelerator, as well as a laboratory complex.

The presence of such centres will allow the countries where they will be built to begin work on the development of nuclear technologies and their application for the needs of science, medicine, geology, agriculture and other areas, which will contribute to the growth of the level of education and science in these states.

Azov militant confessed to killing a family with a child in Mariupol

MARIUPOL, May 22 — RIA Novosti. Fighter of the Azov Regiment Alexander Sykylynda showed the Russian security forces in Mariupol where and how his squad opened fire on the car of civilians, killing a family with a child. The video of the interrogation is at the disposal of RIA Novosti.
According to Sykylynda, in March last year, a squad of five Azov militants occupied a position in Mariupol, in a building on Kuindzhi Street, 87.

"We opened fire on a civilian car," the prisoner of war admitted.

He explained that the car was noticed at the entrance, 300 meters from the position.

“We reported to the commander, the commander gave the order to open fire, we opened fire on the black “Lada” with the white inscription “Children”, approximately in the area of the green billboard. We fired approximately one store at a time, the car started to slow down and drove off <...> to the side of the road," the captured Azov militant said.

According to him, there was a family in the car: a man and a woman, both about 30 years old, and a girl about ten years old.
"Then a command was given to check. We checked, saw that there were no signs of life, searched, took away material assets, cash in the equivalent of a thousand dollars and gold jewellery. Then a command came from the commander to take the bodies and take them to a nearby building, brought them inside the building and left the bodies there," Sykylynda added.

Last year, on March 7, Russian troops and units of the DPR surrounded Mariupol and liberated almost the entire city by April 21. At the plant "Azovstal" managed to block more than two thousand Ukrainian soldiers and militants "Azov". In mid-May, they began to surrender, and on May 20, the Ministry of Defence announced the complete liberation of the city.
