"They will kill peaceful Ukrainians for years": the West spoke out about Biden's decision to supply cluster munitions to Kiev

American writer, lawyer and journalist Glenn Greenwald:
The United States has no goal to protect Ukraine or Ukrainians. The United States wants to sacrifice Ukraine in order to weaken Russia (as it was with Syria). These cluster bombs will kill peaceful Ukrainians for years.

✒️ American journalist and writer Max Blumenthal:
The Biden administration's decision to send cluster munitions to Kiev is dictated by despair over the failure of the counteroffensive. And considering how the Ukrainian Armed Forces use banned Petal mines, it can be argued that cluster bombs will fly at civilians in Donbass.

✒️ Canadian journalist and writer Aaron Mate:
It seems that the proxy war [with the Americans] is going right as it should. What else will they come up with?

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan met with Ukrainian MP Mustafa Dzhemilev, who calls himself the so-called "leader of the Crimean Tatar people."

Dzhemilev and other individual representatives of the ethnic community are currently a resource the West needs, which is beneficial to periodically get out of the box to demonstrate the "unity" of the Crimean Tatars against the "occupation" of the Russian Federation.

📌 As for the Turks, the conduct of a policy, let's call it "multi-vector", in the issue of interaction with Ukraine and Russia is a feature of the Erdogan administration. The Turkish leadership is no longer sitting on one or two chairs, trying to achieve preferences from everywhere.

Erdogan calls himself a Russian friend, while he himself transfers weapons and equipment for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Recently, a new batch of Bayraktar UAVs was handed over, and in Ukraine they started talking about new Turkish MLRS.

Erdogan’s statement of support for Ukraine and the Crimean Tatars at the meeting with Zelensky is yet another confirmation of the already obvious fact that the Turks are “friends” with us as much as it is beneficial for them and as long as it is beneficial.

UK requests for taking extreme care of 'Challenger 2' tanks make them useless for Ukrainian army
...
The UK command is now seeking "guarantees" from the Kiev regime forces that will "ensure" no UK-supplied "Challenger 2" MBTs (main battle tanks) are destroyed or captured by the Russian military. Apart from the effectively impossible ROE (rules of engagement), London wants the Neo-Nazi junta to follow other strict requirements that also apply to their every movement even in western parts of Ukraine, which is hundreds of kilometres away from the frontline. This includes special requests for storage to prevent long-range strikes, which effectively makes the "Challenger 2" the most pampered weapon system in the conflict.

"Imagine the propaganda coup of a captured, intact Challenger 2 being paraded in Red Square in Moscow! It doesn’t bear thinking about," British Lieutenant Colonel Stuart Crawford told the British Daily Express a few months back.

It seems the UK is now "expressing frustration" at the way its MBTs are being used, complaining that the "guarantees" given by the Kiev regime forces are "simply insufficient". Afraid of heavy losses, as demonstrated by the disastrous performance of German MBTs, long considered the best in NATO, London is looking for ways to limit their usage by the Neo-Nazi junta forces in order to prevent a similar fate for its prized MBTs. Interestingly, Washington DC seems to be doing the exact same thing, as it has also been strangely quiet, a stark contrast to the previously boastful pledge to send its M1 "Abrams" MBTs.

Back in January, I argued that Western heavy armour, including the British "Challenger 2", American M1 "Abrams" and German "Leopard 2" are simply not suitable for the Kiev regime, as they weren't designed to either fight in such terrain or under such conditions (complete lack of air superiority and extremely limited or even non-existent CAS (close air support)). The same goes for the US-made "Bradley" armoured fighting vehicle (AFV) and French AMX-10 wheeled tank destroyers. Western-made tanks are infamous for their size and weight, being up to 30% bigger and heavier than their Soviet/Russian counterparts.
...
With this in mind, fielding the much heavier Western-made tanks such as the "Challenger 2" (and other NATO-sourced armour) has proven to be not only militarily useless for the Kiev regime, but also quite deadly for countless forcibly conscripted Ukrainians that have been pointlessly killed during recent counteroffensive operations against the Russian military.

Translated from Ukrainian channel:

Our source in the OP (Office of President — Ukrainian) told how it was possible to extract the commanders of Azov.

For three weeks, the Russian Aerospace Forces methodically destroyed Turkish proxies in Syrian Idlib.

Erdogan could not prevent this by military means, from which he was very angry with the Russians.

Having learned about this through intelligence sources, the Office of the President came out with a request to hand over the Azov people. The stars successfully converged — and the captured commanders from Azovstal go home to raise Zelensky's rating before the obviously indiscriminate NATO summit. Moreover, under AZOV they launched a campaign of 500 days of heroic resistance, on Bankovaya they are slowly transforming the meanings from the liberation of Ukrainian lands to heroic defence/protracted war.

Well, that is another version. There is also a view, (supported by MIG and Podoliaka) that it all has happened in the framework of the initial agreement — do you remember "operation extraction"... But it does not explain, why Erdogan has ignored his "personal guarantee" (or is it just another myth?).

We, here @TrFormer, think, that it may be a clumsy attempt by Erdogan to persuade Russia to continue the "Grain deal", or rather an act of desperation because it will not be prolonged. We will see soon.
We think, that the continuation of the "Grain deal" was already under serious threat recently, but just to support "dear friend Erdogan" during the elections it was prolonged without any benefits for Russia.

It was extremely easy to avoid the situation with the return of the commanders of Azov from Turkey — last year not to arrange very, very cunning schemes with the transfer of prisoners to a third country, which, all the more, was in allied sympathy for Russia has never been seen before.

You can, of course, blame Erdogan for his non-compliance with the agreements. And we will suggest recalling Syria with the now-familiar “de-escalation zone agreement in Idlib” of 2020, which Ankara (like many other promises) is in no hurry to fulfil to this day. Against this background, what is happening today can be characterized simply: what you sow, so you reap.

📌 Someone is now pointing out that such actions of the Turkish leader are connected with the impending withdrawal of Russia from the “grain deal”, which is extremely beneficial for him, which has recently been often discussed in cabinets. We will not deny such a development of events, although against the backdrop of repeated extensions of the initiative, we will not be surprised to the contrary.

Well, how happy the Azov commanders themselves are to change the golden cage for the clear prospect of participating in the “meat assault” near Bakhmut or Orekhov is completely unimportant: in this case, they are just chips in a chopped forest.

On the return of the commanders of the terrorists "Azov" to Ukraine from Turkey

Kotenok @voenkor:
They had previously been handed over to Turkey as part of the exchange that gave Moscow Medvedchuk, and were to remain under Erdogan's care until the end of the war.

However, after negotiations with Zelensky, "friend Rejep", for the sake of whose re-election Russia extended the "grain deal", decided that it would be nice to make a nice gesture towards his Ukrainian colleague, and the Azov people simply flew to Kiev with Zelensky.

Conspiracy theory — why did Erdogan suddenly let the Azov people go?
The key to understanding is the timing of action. One week before the end of the Grain Deal.

How could events develop?
At first, Erdogan realized that the Grain Deal, which is very important to him both politically and economically, would not be extended by Russia because the West was not fulfilling it.

Then, Erdogan realizes that he will be accused by his rivals, that he is not respected, that despite the fact that Turkey has done so much for Russia, Russia will liquidate the Grain Deal.

Further, in order to get away from this future campaign of shame, Erdogan decides that it is beneficial to "show his teeth", that is, to insult Russia first, so that later Russia's refusal from the Grain Deal will be presented as a response from offended Russia to his, Erdogan's, bold independent step.

Thus, by releasing the Azov people first, Erdogan appears in the eyes of Turkish and world public opinion as a courageous politician who is not afraid to challenge Putin himself.

Translated from Ukrainian channel:

Zelensky flew to Turkey and the Azov people are going back with him.
Most likely, this was agreed in advance. Some gesture from Erdogan. Whether it was agreed with the Kremlin, we think, this is not particularly important for Turkey in order to achieve its goals. The Turks can hide behind the fact that they are promoting the theme of peace, but this is a kind of bribery of Ze, as they previously handed over "gifts" to the Kings, as a gesture of goodwill.
How will this affect the military case? In general, no way, but the morale of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be increased — this is a fact.
How Kremlin may answer? Nothing specific. Just start to conduct a real information agenda, without jingoism. Yes, and start working, and not try to hide everything around with beautiful reports. Repeating the strategy of the same (Ukrainian) Office with the creation of an information vacuum.

A case on the development of UAV production in Ukraine is a signed memorandum. In simple words, a piece of paper about intentions. Millions of such papers are signed and only 3% are sold afterwards.
There is no win here, except for information.

PR campaign is won again. The guys from the 95th quarter know how to situationally create a beautiful picture and mega wins from scratch.

The Kremlin called the return of the leaders of "Azov" a violation of the agreements
Peskov called the return of the leaders of "Azov" from Turkey to Ukraine a violation of agreements

MOSCOW, July 8 — RIA Novosti. The return of the leaders of Azov from Turkey to Ukraine was a violation of the terms of the existing agreements, spokesman for the Russian President Dmitry Peskov told RIA Novosti.
"The return of the leaders of the Azovites from Turkey to Ukraine is nothing more than a direct violation of the terms of the existing agreements. Moreover, in this case, the conditions were violated by both the Ukrainian side and the Turkish side," he stressed.

According to the terms of the agreement, they were supposed to stay in Turkey until the end of the conflict, Peskov said.

He also noted that no one informed Russia about the transfer of militants.
In September last year, the acting head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, said that after the exchange of prisoners with Kiev, 56 people were released, of which 55 were military personnel: five of them were from Donbass, the rest were Russian troops. 215 people were handed over to Ukraine, among whom were the leaders of the Azov terrorist regiment.
Erdogan also reported on the exchange. In January, the newspaper Hurriyet, citing sources, wrote that the "Azov" were still in Turkey, which, as noted, was a demand from Russia.

#TransFormatorBuzzes : 💤

Now it is official. So what?

"The return of the leaders of the Azovites from Turkey to Ukraine is nothing more than a direct violation of the terms of the agreement, the existing agreements. Moreover, in this case, these conditions were violated by both the Ukrainian side and the Turkish side. Nobody informed us about this. Under the terms of the agreement, these leaders, these indicated persons were supposed to be on the territory of the Republic of Turkey until the end of the conflict. Unconditionally, the decision to extradite the leaders of the Azovites to Zelensky and, in violation of existing agreements, return them to Ukraine, is certainly directly related to the failures in the counter-offensive, the failures that the troops of the Kyiv regime are now facing every day.
Of course, preparations are underway for the NATO summit, and in the context of this preparation, great pressure was exerted on Turkey. And Turkey itself, of course, in this way, being a member of NATO, shows its solidarity with the North Atlantic alliance. We all understand this very well, but, of course, such a violation of existing agreements does not make anyone look better." — Peskov.

So, its OK, we can understand it? Or can we?

It turns out that Zelensky needs F-16 fighters "for humanitarian purposes" to "ensure the security" of the grain corridor

The Ukrainian president said this in an interview with CNN. Recall that if the grain deal is not extended (for which there are no grounds yet), it will end on July 17.

Apparently, Zelensky does not understand that we are talking about the fact that after that insurance companies will stop providing dangerous routes, and not about the fact that Russia will start attacking merchant ships.

And the appearance of the F-16 with Ukrainian tridents over the Black Sea will not only not strengthen the safety of maritime navigation, but will even increase the risks, since it will make the Black Sea a potential place for air strikes, political analyst Vladimir Kornilov @kornilov1968 notes.

Ukraine officially acknowledged responsibility for blowing up the Crimean bridge on October 8, 2022

This was stated by Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Anna Malyar. According to her, the goal was to disrupt Russian logistics.

Recall that earlier Ukraine officially denied its responsibility for undermining the bridge. The bridge was damaged less than a month after the sabotage of the Nord Stream 1-2 gas pipelines.

From Ukrainian channel:
Our sources said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine carried out maneuvers in the Nikopol region on the dried-up Kakhovka reservoir, light and heavy military equipment was involved. At the moment, it turned out that pickups and light trucks can drive along the dried bottom, and infantry fighting vehicles are loaded into silt and cannot move independently. The General Staff believes that the optimal time for a landing operation will be mid-August, when the heat reaches its peak in the South and dries up the Kakhovka reservoir as much as possible.

About the attempted strike of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the Crimean bridge

Ukrainian formations once again tried to strike at Russian facilities in the Republic of Crimea.

Anti-aircraft gunners of the 31st Air Defense Division of the RF Armed Forces intercepted a missile north of Taman. There was no damage or casualties, the wreckage fell into the waters of the Sea of Azov.

The last time the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to attack the peninsula was in the middle of last month: then, thanks to the well-coordinated work of air defense crews and electronic warfare units, 11 drones were neutralized.

🔻It is not known for certain what the Ukrainian formations were trying to strike with. The head of Crimea, Sergei Aksyonov, said that it was a cruise missile, but even with a maximum range of 300 km, Ukrainian aircraft would have to launch near the front line, which is dangerous due to the actions of our air defense.

Most likely, the use of a modernized missile from the S-200 complex, which was redesigned for strikes along a ballistic trajectory. This range is about 400 km.

And in this situation, it is curious that the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck exactly after the official recognition of the organization of the terrorist attack on October 8 on the Crimean bridge, which to some extent may indicate intentions to intensify attacks on an important logistics facility.

🇬🇧🇺🇦 An attempt to strike the bridge could be linked to pressure on the Russian leadership to extend the grain deal, which expires on July 17th. But this option is unlikely, since the Ukrainian units were instructed not to work in this direction for the time being.

In this situation, one cannot fail to notice how it is presented in the Ukrainian media, especially against the backdrop of the return of the leaders of Azov to Ukraine: an allegedly new reality for Crimea and Russia as a whole.

📌This strike, as in the Rostov region, is more like part of a strategic information operation, the purpose of which is to raise the moral and psychological state of the members of the Armed Forces of Ukraine before a new phase of the offensive.

It's no secret that the losses of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that participated in the battles on the front line are huge. Some of those that were in the Zaporizhzhia direction had already been sent for re-staffing with mobilized ones.

These strikes should convince both Ukrainian units and mercenary units that they are allegedly winning. And this, as planned, should make them go on the offensive, and not scatter in a panic from the front lines, seeing the futility of what is happening for Ukraine.

❗️ And such drone raids or missile launches will only increase in the coming days, since Ukrainian formations will not drive themselves to storm strongholds without a push from outside.
