Kremlin warns Ukraine that trying to retake Donbas after referendums will be tantamount to attacking Russia

From News 360

The Kremlin has warned that, if the referendums on annexation to Russia initiated this Friday in the eastern regions of Ukraine succeed, they will be considered for all purposes territories of the Russian Federation and, therefore, the Constitution will be applied "immediately".

Therefore, potential Ukrainian attempts to regain the Donbas would be considered attacks on Russia, which from Moscow's point of view would legitimize any response.

The Kremlin spokesman, Dimitri Peskov, has defended that everything is "very clear" in the Constitution and, although he has avoided giving a deadline for the formal conclusion of the annexation of these territories, he has pointed out that it will be "fast", according to the Interfax news agency.

Before Zelensky become a President...

Take all of your convictions today and imagine fighting for their complete opposite.... What's your price? 💲

Could things have been different?

Zelenskiy campaigned on bringing peace to the Republics through the implementation of the Minsk agreements. It is likely a referendum would have resulted in the Republics requesting a degree of autonomy. That means the area would remain part of the country, with one's territorial integrity unscathed, but the region can usually legislate its own laws.

There are several of these within Russia already - such as the Jewish Autonomous Region (see purple) or the Republic of Chechnya (part of the green). Republics and autonomous regions have different constitutional obligations in respect of the central power structure.

If Kyiv was indeed not waging war against the Donbass (as they claim they did not) - why didn't they want to meet their people half way? 🤔

#YURI WEEKLY Battles of Liman - two breakthrough attempts repelled by the Cossack volunteer units and the heroic 20th Army, the third one started several days ago, and still continues. Yuri considers, that we are past the most critical part of it. As of tonight, the situation is stably grave, but manageable, Liman and Kupyansk keep holding. Russian command had to send in reserves to prevent the Ukrainian troops, wedged significantly into our defenses, from breaking through.

Yuri explains the strategic goals and objectives of the Ukrainian Liman operation that went wrong from the very start, but if successful, it could have eclipsed their successes near Balakleya/Izyum.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇹🇷́ The Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said that Putin at the talks with Erdogan "declared the possibility of returning to negotiations with Kiev, but "on new conditions"‼️

Translation...Ukraine should forget about LPR,DPR,Crimea,Kherson and Zaporozhye region

According to Cavusoglu, the Russian leader voiced this during talks with his Turkish counterpart Erdogan on the sidelines of the SCO summit in Samarkand. The Turkish Foreign Minister added that every day it becomes more difficult.(probably thinking for Ukraine)

Future Prime Minister of Italy Giorgia Melloni - about the dominant world ideology and Family value:

Why is the FAMILY an enemy for them?
Why does it scare them?

There is a simple answer to all these questions.... Because everything that makes up our essence is now declared an enemy by those who want to deprive us of it and simply turn us into ideal consumer slaves. That is why they hit on our national, religious, gender, family identity.
I can't call myself Italian, Christian, woman, mother.
I must be Citizen X, Gender X, Parent #1, Parent #2. Because if I was turned into a number, my identity was taken away and I was deprived of my roots,then I will be the perfect slave at the mercy of financial speculators. The ideal consumer. That's why we cause them such fear and scares them so much. Because we do not want to become numbers, but are ready to protect the value of each person. Everyone! And whether someone likes it or not, it is sacred. We will stand up for God, for the Motherland and for the family.

◾Participation is the lowest in democracy with 64%, almost 10 points less than in 2018 | The extreme right wins the elections for the first time in Italy, according to RAI measurements, which give up to 257 seats to the right-wing coalition of the 400 that make up the Chamber | The Democratic Party and its partners would add less than 100.

◾ROME, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Italy will look to limit China's economic expansion and continue to support Ukraine militarily if a rightist alliance wins next month's election, nationalist leader Giorgia Meloni told Reuters.

◾Meloni is in pole position to become the country's next prime minister, with her Brothers of Italy party forecast to lead a conservative bloc to comprehensive victory in the Sept. 25 national vote.

◾The next government would have to face a rapidly changing international landscape, with both Russia and China challenging the West, Meloni said, adding that under her leadership, Italy would not be "the weak link" in the Western alliance.

For the first time new Italian PM expected to be woman

Giorgia Meloni and far-right Brothers of Italy are forming a new coalition with the right getting 41-45% of the vote, while the left alliance has 25-29%.

Despite Ursula von der Leyen threats, Italians vote en mass for Fratelli d'Italia party.

Fyodor Golofayev from Alchevsk, a labour veteran, Master of Sports, speaks about the referendum and returning home❤️

"The voting process is quite transparent, free and takes place without any interference" - these are the words international observers describe the referendum in the DPR.

In Mariupol, observers from South Africa, Venezuela and Togo visited three polling stations, where they were able to talk to both election commissions and voting citizens. According to them, "no violations were noticed, the whole process complies with international electoral standards."

Hungarian Prime Minister Orban:
The war between Ukraine and Russia would be a local conflict, but the economic sanctions of the West have turned it into a global economic war.

Therefore, we are facing a local war and a global economic war at the same time. The first question is how long this war will last. Not a few weeks or months.
America and the European Union are helping Ukraine with weapons and money, while Russia's reserves are limitless both in terms of people and weapons.
Therefore, we must prepare for the fact that this war will continue here in our region.
