This is what the Ukrainian conflict is for the United States

Sleight of hand and no fraud… Well, almost.

Dmitry Medvedev :If Russia stops the special military operation without winning, there will be no Russia, it will be torn apart. If the U.S. stops supplying weapons to the Kiev regime, the war is over.

Dmitry Medvedev's comment on Putin's and Biden's speeches :

1. Yesterday we had an address by the President of Russia to the Federal Assembly, in which, among other things, he announced the suspension of our participation in START III. A long overdue decision, the inevitability of which I noted last year. A decision prompted by the war the United States and other NATO countries have declared on our country. A decision that will have a huge resonance in the world in general and in the United States in particular. The reasoning of the American establishment so far has been this: we will shit all over you, we will supply huge volumes of weapons to the Kiev regime, we will work to defeat Russia, we will limit and destroy you, but strategic security is a separate issue. It is not related to the overall context of the U.S.-Russia relationship. It is almost a sacred cow.

This conclusion is worse than a crime-it's a grave mistake by Americans. A mistake born of their mania grandiosa. Their sense of superiority and impunity. After all, it is obvious to all reasonable forces that if the U.S. wants to defeat Russia, then we are on the brink of a world conflict. If the U.S. wants to defeat Russia, we have the right to defend ourselves with any weapon, including nuclear weapons. As Putin rightly said: "It is impossible to defeat Russia on the battlefield. This is precisely why we have suspended (for now) START III. Let the elites in the U.S., who have lost touch with reality, think about what they have achieved. Let us also watch the reactions of the other NATO nuclear powers: France and Britain. Their Strategic nuclear forces were not usually included in the balance of nuclear warheads and carriers in the preparation of agreements between the US and the USSR (Russia), and it is high time to do so.

2. Biden addressed the Russian people in front of a crowd of Poles. In fact, he preached a sermon in the traditional American messianic vein, adjusted by senile marasmus. He piled on high words about how important it was to defend democracy, and that the U.S. had no intention of attacking Russia. It looked dishonest and ridiculous. Who is this strange grandfather, anyway, speaking with a bewildered look from Poland? Why is he appealing to the people of another country at a time when they are full of domestic problems? Why the hell should we listen to a politician from a hostile country that exudes hatred for our homeland? Why should Russian citizens believe the leader of the United States, which has unleashed the most wars in the 20th and 21st centuries, but blames us for our aggressiveness? A person who devotes all his weakening intellectual capabilities only to ensuring that Russia suffers a "strategic defeat."

One more thing. To paraphrase a famous expression, Biden said in Warsaw: "If Russia stops its invasion, it ends right now. If the Ukrainians stop defending themselves, it will be the end of Ukraine. This is a refined lie. The truth is quite different.

If Russia stops the special military operation without winning, there will be no Russia, it will be torn apart. If the U.S. stops supplying weapons to the Kiev regime, the war is over.

"One for all, we will not stand for the price!" — the legendary song of Bulat Okudzhava was performed in the "Luzhniki" under the chorus of the singing hall

The Academic Song and Dance Ensemble of the Russian Army named after A.V. Alexandrov together with the audience sang the song "Our Tenth Amphibious Battalion".

Scott Ritter, a former UN weapons inspector discussing the New START suspension, talks about the reasons for and the meaning of the New START suspension:

💬“We withdrew from Open skies, and now we're cheating on the last remaining treaty, new START. We're not allowing Russian inspectors to come and inspect us while demanding that we go inspect Russia. And so the Russians have suspended this. This is all a power play by the United States to further what we believe to be our strategic advantage over Russia. The problem is Russia is no longer a defeated, compliant state. The Russians have nuclear superiority over us today. Their missiles are better than anything we have. We don't have a missile defense system worthy of the name. And so if there was a nuclear conflict, we would be annihilated.”

Previously, US media claimed that Biden’s trip to Ukraine was a “surprise visit” that took "months of planning." However, the White House confirmed that it had informed Russia of Biden’s plans to visit Kiev in advance for “deconfliction purposes.”

⚡️ According to the information available, the Kiev regime is plotting an armed provocation against the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic in the near future, which will be carried out by units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, including those involving the Azov nationalist formation.

◽️ A staged attack by allegedly Russian forces from Transnistrian territory will be used as the pretext for the invasion.

◽️ For this purpose, the Ukrainian saboteurs involved in the staged invasion will be disguised as military personnel of the Russian Federation.

◽️ The Russian Defence Ministry is closely monitoring the situation on Ukraine's border with the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic and is ready to respond to any changes in the situation.

🌍 🇺🇦 🇮🇱 Western Donors Can Lavish Billions on Ukraine, Israel But Poorer Nations Left Behind, Say Experts

🗣 “First, they view the world in a geopolitical context and NATO and EU members come first in the global order of importance,” an expert believes. “Hence billions can be spent on just one country such as Ukraine or Israel, but little on the poorer nations of the world.”

The expert argues that the West's assessment of which countries were important was revealed during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the Western nations ignored poorer nations and practiced a so-called “vaccine nationalism”.
