Western reaction to Putin's visit to Mariupol

The Western press is in its repertoire. What else can be add? 👇

The Wall Street Journal shifts the focus from the very historical fact of the visit to some "Russian atrocities" in the city.

The Washington Post calls the trip to the city a "demonstration of disobedience" after the biased decision of the "International Criminal Court" to issue an arrest warrant for Putin.

The BBC also focused on the fact that allegedly Russian troops turned the city into ruins, while keeping silent about the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine used houses and social facilities as "supports".

The BBC did not forget to throw in a fake that Russia "blew up the Mariupol Drama Theater."

And the Polish Rzeczpospolita decided to speculate on the topic "is it Putin" captured in the footage.

Well, what can be said? This is how the West works.

◾In Ukraine the Russian Language is banned by law according to Ukrainian Nazis harassing shop workers.

◾In a coffeeshop in Odessa a raging Ukrainian Nazi challenged the staff for listening to Russian music and speaking the Russian language:

- You are speaking in the Russian language right now!

+ Yes because I want to speak Russian.

- No you can't! You are surving me, you must speak in Ukrainian! There is a law! There is a language law! You must speak Ukrainian!

+ I can speak in any language that I want to speak in.

- you do not know the language law and for that you will be punished.

+ Excuse me miss, this conversation is over please leave the shop.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🎯 On the Ukrainian UAV Raid on #Dzhankoy in #Crimea⚡️

Another massive attack by Ukrainian UAVs was carried out on the Crimean peninsula last night. At least six "Mugin-5" type UAVs, artificially equipped with explosives, were used against #Dzhankoy.

As a result, two drones were shot down by a Pantsir SAM system, and two fell on administrative buildings near the railway station. A fifth destroyed a grocery shop, while shrapnel from a sixth damaged private houses on Yuzhnaya, Gagarin and Chekhov streets.

The map shows the approximate strike and impact areas of the drones, based on open source data.

🔹What was the Target of the AFU?

Initially, information was received that the AFU formations launched drones from the Shkolny airfield (#Odessa) to strike at the Russian military airfield. However, judging by the area of ​​application of the UAV, an attempt was made to hit the station building and the railway track.

#Dzhankoy is the main transit hub for the Russian grouping in #Crimea. Railway lines to #Sevastopol and mainland #Russia pass through the city train station, and the attempt to hit the facility looks logical.

Despite claims by the Ukrainian GUR that the attack hit a train carrying Kalibr cruise missiles, this was not the case. If the train with such weapons had been hit, at least a secondary detonation would have been visible - there are no consequences of the explosion.

In addition, the AFU, when launching drones over long distances, as a rule, score the coordinates in advance to increase the immunity of the means of electronic warfare. Hitting a moving train in this way is extremely difficult.

🔹Information Support

After the first sounds of explosion and engagement of air defence, Ukrainian infobots started to actively work in #Dzhankoy city chats, misinforming the population and inducing panic.

Various Telegram channels (such as Trukha and Insider) published posts about a dozen explosions in different parts of the city. These reports were accompanied by criticism of Chinese President Xi Jinping, who had arrived in #Moscow the day before.

At the same time, a Western agenda was being worked on, condemning the Chinese government's activities. The attempted strike on #Crimea was presented as "punishment for friendship with #China".

📌 Differences from previous Actions

The AFU once again changed tactics. The attack was carried out without NATO reconnaissance aircraft in the air. Neither Global Hawk nor Reaper were in the air at night.

◾Katya from Kahrkov:

- Today I want to talk about the scandal with the eviction of the monks of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. The Ukrainian government takes literally everything from the people: language, culture, history, land, and now also faith. How and why this happens, I explain in the video.

👉👉👉 Ukrainian 46th brigade

In Bakhmut. From our comrades.
"The orcs have shifted their efforts to the flanks of our troops. The reason is the lack of opportunity to advance in the city. Urban battles are always slow, and they need results. That is why they have intensified their activity in the direction of Hryhorivka - Bohdanivka. In Orikhovo-Vasylivka, then move in the direction of Novomarkove to the border of the Kanal. In case of success, we will be talking about putting pressure on Chasiv Yar, not Bakhmut. As for the pace of the offensive, the Vanguard has no problems with personnel, but the weight of the artillery volley has not been restored in a month. Aviation is working less frequently and farther from zero after the losses, they are afraid. We are holding on."

⚔️🇺🇸🐮💩 Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by US Milbloggers of "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

🤥🇺🇸🇺🇦卐: It is hard to work through the troll drivel to get to the usually poor combat reports. From the writing on #Avdeyevka, it is easy to see that the US milbloggers are really military novices and it is a cheeky fraud to pretend expertise. The situation in the Avdeyevka sector is catastrophic for the intruders. The experts agree on that. 👉🚽

⚠️ Warning! ISW is a troll entity linked to the US regime. The henchmen spread propaganda and disinformation instead of providing a picture of the situation on the front, which is evident from the mostly fruitless frontline information.

💬 The Text is quoted verbatim, including the often horrifying misspelling of localities. The respective source is linked in the footer.

🔻 March 20 Key Takeaways 👻

▪️ Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow and offered a more reserved vision for Russian-Chinese relations than Putin likely desires.

▪️ Putin is likely increasing his attempts to rally the rest of the world against the West, although it remains unlikely that he will achieve decisive effects in this effort.

▪️ Wagner Group Financier Yevgeny Prigozhin appears to maintain powerful political leverage and regional connections despite some officials’ attempts to distance themselves. Russian authorities are likely unsure of how to redefine Wagner’s new role following Prigozhin’s overextension of Wagner resources and support.

▪️ The Russian information space continues to respond to the International Criminal Court (ICC)’s issuance of arrest warrants for Russian President Vladimir Putin and Russian Commissioner on Children’s Rights Maria Lvova-Belova with ire and anxiety.

▪️ Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) Spokesperson Andriy Yusov stated that the frequency of large Russian missile attacks has decreased.

▪️ Russia requested that the UN Security Council discuss Israeli airstrikes in Syria possibly in retaliation for Israel’s approval of export licenses for anti-drone jamming systems for Ukraine.

▪️ Russian sources claimed that Ukrainian and Russian forces conducted offensive operations northeast of Kupyansk.

▪️ Russian forces continued offensive operations near Svatove and Kreminna.

▪️ Russian forces continued making advances in and around Bakhmut.

▪️ Russian forces continued ground attacks along the Avdiivka-Donetsk City frontline and made marginal gains near Avdiivka.

▪️ Russian sources claim that Russian forces are building up defensive fortifications and repelled Ukrainian reconnaissance-in-force operations in Zaporizhia Oblast.

▪️ Russian sources accused unknown actors of planting a bomb that exploded near a gas pipeline in occupied Simferopol, Crimea.

▪️ Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged Russian difficulties obtaining components for high-tech industrial production.

▪️ Ukrainian partisans killed Russian-appointed head of the Kherson Oblast pre-detention center Serhii Moskalenko with an improvised explosive device on March 17.
