Časopis argument (Czech Republic): The ultra-nationalist Ukrainian regime, 2022

quote:
Awarding the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought: "the brave Ukrainian people represented by Volodymyr Zelensky" is like a punch in the face...

It is crazy that although today the Ukrainian liberals are in fierce opposition* to Zelensky, our progressives and all Western and EU liberals support the ultra-nationalist Ukrainian regime instead.
...
remember the year 2015, when the parliament voted on a special status for Donetsk and Lugansk (as required by the Minsk I), while a supporter of the Ukrainian fascist party Svoboda tossed a grenade between policemen – the result was four dead and dozens injured as a result.
...
After the Maidan, democracy did not become stronger, but the ultra-right and the oligarchy did.
...
In Ukraine we see an absurd mixture of ultra-nationalism, neoliberalism and Atlanticism as a coalition of pro-European attitudes.

Ukraine is preparing a provocation to disrupt the transit of Russian ammonia from Togliatti to Odessa

MOSCOW, December 4 - RIA Novosti. The Kiev regime is preparing a provocation to disrupt the UN initiative to resume the transit of ammonia through the Togliatti-Odessa pipeline, a military-diplomatic source told RIA Novosti.
According to him, it is planned to arrange explosions on the domed roofs of ammonia storage facilities on the territory of the Odessa port plant in order to destroy suspended ceilings, as well as the infrastructure of the reloading shop. All this is supposed to be presented under the legend of a missile strike allegedly inflicted by the Russian army.

"The provocation was planned and is being implemented under the control of representatives of the British special services located in Odessa. Contract soldiers of the Canadian PMC GardaWorld are also involved in the implementation of this provocation, who, under an agreement with the Ukrainian seaports administration, perform the functions of protecting the port infrastructure in the Odessa region," the agency's interlocutor said.
He added that the main goal of the provocation, by analogy with the sabotage at Nord Stream, would be to deprive Russia of the opportunity to supply ammonia, which is necessary for the production of nitrogen fertilizers, to various regions of the world, primarily to developing countries.
"The planned destruction of storage facilities for ammonia in Odessa will lead to a further increase in its value on the world market. This will increase the volume, as well as the profitability of the production and export of ammonia by UK and US enterprises to the European Union and developing countries in the face of high natural gas prices," he said.
The Togliatti-Odessa ammonia pipeline was built in the late 1970s. About 2.5 million tons of raw materials are pumped through it annually. Since February 24, after the start of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, the transit was stopped.
The resumption of exports of Russian fertilizers is provided for by the grain deal signed by representatives of Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and the UN at the end of July. This week, UN Under-Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs Martin Griffiths called it close to reaching an agreement to resume supplies of ammonia, which could begin within a week or two.

Ukraine aid and stealth bombers: Pentagon lays out consequences if Congress can’t pass a budget deal
A yearlong continuing resolution would hit weapons programs across the board, an internal document says.

By LARA SELIGMAN for POLITICO
...
A yearlong continuing resolution, or CR, would slash funding for DoD by $29 billion, or 3.7 percent, compared to President Joe Biden’s request for fiscal 2023, according to conversations with senior DoD officials and internal documents exclusively obtained by POLITICO.

Operating under a short-term spending bill is nothing new to the Pentagon, which has seen CRs 13 out of the last 14 years. Every year, DoD leaders warn that the stopgap measure — which limits funding to the previous year’s levels and bars the department from starting most new programs — erodes military readiness and puts key programs at risk. It’s a common tactic to pressure lawmakers to come to an agreement before any significant damage is done, and it’s typically successful.

But this year is different, officials said: A longer, one-year CR would be a major crisis for DoD.
...
In that case, McCord said his top priorities would be the nuclear triad, particularly the B-21, hypersonic programs, and potentially a multiyear contract for Arleigh Burke-class destroyers. In addition, DoD would have to “look hard” at industrial base concerns for munitions needed for the Ukraine conflict and a possible Indo-Pacific contingency, he said.

Senior DoD officials are also concerned that a yearlong CR could halt military aid to Ukraine that comes from the department’s base budget, including replacing munitions expended in the fight. The bulk of the funding for Ukraine has been through supplemental funding bills, which could be attached to a CR. But if lawmakers can’t get a deal on a funding bill or a Ukraine supplemental, DoD will run out of money for Kyiv in the spring, McCord said.

“Ukraine is in a kinetic fight, and we are their No. 1 helper,” McCord said. “If they run out of ammo, they’re in a bad place.”

A yearlong CR could also delay industrial base improvements for several key systems, including the Abrams tank and the M777 towed howitzer, which is among the weapons the U.S. military is donating to Ukraine.

Zelensky was dissatisfied with the decision to set an adjustable ceiling on Russian oil prices at $60 per barrel

The diesel paradox of Ukraine
Due to the power outage, Ukraine needs diesel fuel for generators, it needs a lot. But the EU imposes sanctions on oil from Russia and on petroleum products, that is, diesel. And the EU gave Ukraine diesel fuel from Russian supplies.
Therefore, now the Europeans have apologized and warned Kiev that they will sharply reduce the supply of diesel to Ukraine because of sanctions — sanctions that Kiev asked for Russia.
So anti-Russian sanctions will make the lives of millions of residents of Ukraine colder, darker and more hopeless,unfortunately... But as Olena Zeneskaya said "people of Ukraine can hold without heat for 2-3 years"...

The government of the Russian Federation plans to prepare a mechanism that will ban trading on the condition of the oil price ceiling.

Now we are working on mechanisms to prohibit the use of the price cap tool, regardless of what level will be set. Such interference, we believe, could lead to even greater destabilization, a shortage of energy resources and a decrease in investment. It can affect not only oil, but also other products that are on the market, affect not only Russia but also other countries. Therefore, we will sell oil and oil products to those countries that will work with us on market terms. Even if we have to cut production a little.

OPEC+ countries decide on oil production volumes
04.12.2022 - 16:45

The OPEC+ countries decided to keep the current agreements on oil production volumes.

As RV reported, representatives of 23 oil-producing countries, led by Russia and Saudi Arabia, gathered to discuss this issue today. The discussion was initiated against the backdrop of the introduction of a "cap" on prices for Russian raw materials.

The next meeting of the alliance will take place on June 4, but OPEC + confirms its readiness to meet at any time to take additional measures to stabilize the market, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries said in a statement.

Production will continue to be reduced by 2 million barrels per day.

Apparently, it will increase spot prices for crude oil, and no "caps" will help. "This is market capitalism, baby..."(C)

Two Words That Could End The War In Ukraine

By Jack Buckby for 19FortyFive

Security Guarantees: How to End the Ukraine War?
Speaking to French television network TF1 in an interview recorded during his recent trip to the United States, Macron argued that Europe needs to begin preparing future security architecture with a view to making some guarantees for Russia.

“This means that one of the essential points we must address – as President Putin has always said – is the fear that NATO comes right up to its doors, and the deployment of weapons that could threaten Russia,” the French president said.

“That topic will be part of the topics for peace, so we need to prepare what we are ready to do, how we protect our allies and member states, and how to give guarantees to Russia the day it returns to the negotiating table.”

It’s a suggestion that Macron has made before.

In February, the Russian and French presidents met to discuss security guarantees for Russia.

The discussions ultimately led to nothing.
#TransFormatorBuzzes : 💤
It appears, that certain smarties in the West eventually starts to understand something, but with a delay of about a year. Those "offerings" could have changed something when Russia about a year ago addressed US, EU and NATO with requests to ensure security guaranties as a legally binding document, which was arrogantly rejected.
