MOSCOW, June 27 - RIA Novosti. Deliveries of Russian energy carriers to India have grown tenfold, Russian Ambassador to New Delhi Denis Alipov said on the air of the Rossiya 24 TV channel.
"Cooperation has grown many times and even dozens of times. The prospects here are very good. We are happy to supply our products to the Indian market, India is interested in it," the diplomat said.

According to him, the Indian government allows its companies to buy Russian oil and gas at prices below the world average.
The ambassador did not specify how much the oil supplies had increased, pointing out that the growth figures were 50 times.

Moscow and New Delhi are now resolving issues of mutual settlements and logistics, considering payment options in national currencies, Alipov added.
India, in turn, can increase the supply of textiles, telecommunications equipment, and pharmaceutical products to Russia, the diplomat concluded.

As Nikita Kondratiev, Deputy Director of the Department of Multilateral Economic Cooperation and Special Projects of the Ministry of Economic Development, said at a round table at the Rossiya Segodnya MIA, Russia's foreign trade turnover with the BRICS countries increased by 40 percent in 2021 and reached a record $165 billion.

Translated from reliable (well, for us) source

Fake: The Russian military shelled the Amstor shopping centre in Kremenchug. This was announced by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.

Truth: The Amstor shopping centre is located next to the Kremenchug road machinery plant and the Kremenchug railway station. In one of the videos, it seems to people that the missile hit the factory (the phrase “Dormash, Dormash”). In addition, according to sources familiar with the course of the special operation, the Amstor shopping centre was used as a warehouse for storing military equipment, just like the Kyiv Retroville shopping centre.

Kremenchug station is one of the most important railway junctions in Ukraine, it connects the central and western parts of the country. In addition, in Kremenchug there is a locomotive depot (TЧ-6) and the Kremenchug power supply unit (EЧ-8). The station is actively used for the supply of fuel from the Kremenchug refinery for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

At 90 meters from the shopping centre is the Kremenchug plant of road machines. Since 2014, the plant has been repairing equipment for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. A railway line from the Kremenchug station leads to the plant.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that there were about a thousand civilians in the shopping centre, however, the parking lot in front of the shopping centre building is almost empty, there are few cars on it. In addition, among the people who walk around the parking lot there are a lot of military men in “pixel” uniforms (regular T-shirts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, camouflage bags), some of them are armed with machine guns. At the same time, there are practically no women in the video posted by Zelensky, as well as in the videos on social networks.

It doesn't look like the mall was open at all. In Instagram (the social network is recognized as extremist in the Russian Federation), according to the geotag "Amstor shopping centre" there are no photos of visitors since March. Reviews on websites and Google maps have stopped appearing also in March. Apparently, the equipment repaired at Dormash was stored in the shopping centre.

Despite the unconfirmed nature of Zelensky’s statement about a thousand visitors in the shopping centre and the official information about two dead, international media quickly picked up the news is precisely in the context of the “Russian missile that hit the shopping centre with 1000 visitors.

In the coming days, a NATO summit will be held, during which Vladimir Zelensky intends to ask for military assistance. Now the Ukrainian authorities are preparing the ground to turn Amstor into a new Bucha.

Well, sound convincing to me. #TransFormator

Vladimir Zelensky's first press conference on October 11, 2019

"What is Putin's next move?": Harlan Ullman, head of the Killowen Group consulting company, wrote an article for The Hill that Putin is so powerful and insidious that the West simply has no chance of defeating him at the current stage.

"Putin sees that the United States was forced to plan a war on two fronts, directed against Russia and China. Putin is fully aware of the stupidity of such a strategy. Napoleon and Hitler were ultimately defeated, starting wars on two fronts, invading Russia in 1812 and the USSR in 1941, respectively. Thus, China is a strategic asset, as well as a market for Russian energy carriers, allowing to circumvent sanctions and force the United States to reduce its resources in order to cope with the two main opponents."

Lugansk: Road to Independence 2022-2014

‘I wish none of this had happened [in 2014]. I wish Kiev hadn’t ordered this, hadn’t done this to us. Nobody knew when they might die,’ says Aleksandr Zhivolup, a race driver from Lugansk.

Since 2014, civilians in the Luhansk People's Republic have been living under Ukrainian shelling. People had no water, food, or electricity.

‘They’ve been shelling and killing us for eight years. The LPR was under artillery fire. People went to sleep under fire,’ said Igor Kornеt, the Interior Minister of the LPR.

From car mechanics to businessmen, ordinary people stood up for the region. ‘We had guys who signed up, saying they’d never served,’ recalls Sergey, an LPR militiaman codenamed Yugoslav.

How have people survived in the Luhansk People's Republic for the last eight years, and what’s happening there now? Don’t miss our premier Lugansk: Road to Independence 2022-2014.

Lisichansk Cauldron Update:

1—the Allied troops are reported to have constructed pontoon crossings near Shepilovo and Privolye and traversed Seversky Donetsk;

2—yesterday (June 27), several columns of Ukrainian troops attempting to break to Seversk through Verkhnekamenka were crushed by Allied artillery;

3—today, Ukrainian troops changed their tactic and have been attempting to fight their way through Allied artillery barrage to Belogorovka;

4—Ukrainian reserve units have been taken out of Novodruzhevka, Privolye, and Shepilovo, and transferred to Seversk, with very few still remaining behind;

5—there are reports of Ukrainian reinforcements totalling 5-7k troops arriving from Kramatorsk to Seversk—they have taken up positions on the outskirts of the town [GB: This suggests that, contrary to my prognosis, the Ukrainians have decided to stand ground in the far less defensible Seversk, rather than withdrawing further to the significantly more fortified Soledar-Pokrovsk-Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) urban triangle, though it could also be that the reinforcements were brought in to cover the retreat of the Lisichansk garrison];

6—there is hope that the path from Lisichansk to Seversk passing through Belogorovka and Serebryanka will imminently be taken under artillery fire control by the Allied troops, cutting off the last remaining tenuous escape path out of the Lisichansk Cauldron;

7—in Lisichansk itself, fighting is taking place within city limits, at the football stadium. The Allied forces are moving westwards through the city.

8—reports of the fall of the Lisichansk oil refinery are likely somewhat premature, though definitely not impossible. As of approximately three hours ago, the Allied forces were still engaged in a fierce clashes with the Ukrainian troops for control of the oil refinery, Verkhnekamenka, and Maloryazantsevo;

9—as of about 4 hours ago, the Ukrainian Terrorist forces opened significant artillery fire from their positions at the Lisichansk oil refinery and struck the residential area is Lisichansk—staying perfectly true to their terrorist tactics.

This G7 was all about Glory to the Heroes. 😂

You gotta love the present thing.🤡

Our Chinese comrades causes some warries and a sense of insecurity to American admiral. Time for another pill of antidepressant.

Commander of the US Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) John Aquilino claimed that China now has "the largest military buildup in history since World War II" during a Friday conversation with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. He then said the development of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) had raised the "sense of urgency" to protect Guam from a potential missile threat from China.

This is not the first time in recent months Aquilino has played up the "threat" of China's increased military buildup to regional security and world order. In May, the INDOPACOM commander testified to the US House Appropriations Committee that China seeks to "become a global military power and acquire the ability to seize Taiwan, while developing conventional weapons that can reach the US Homeland."
