  5. Mongolia is China and Russia's problem. There are Russian ethnics in China . The CCI didn't arrest Bibi because the EU has no real Power. The EU who embraced it, is a group of Nation-states in decline. None of the super Powers have signed off on the CCI.

  12. Kuleva is a goner…and so are his dreams of grandeur.
    No defiance, no gains, no progress, the Ukrainians are just wailing about the rear ramming of this week and probably for the things to come

  15. as the trivial medwedkowsky has shown russia is only interested in the mineral resources in the regions … for this russia sent green men, caused terror in the regions, had people killed, shot down a civilian plane from malaysia, killing over 300 people… all to justify the war in ukraine… this is the same cheap russian trick as with chechnya, where the russian secret service placed bombs in civilian buildings and murdered its own population, then blamed it on chechnya terrorists as a justification for invading chechnya and killing people … medwedkowsky is a part of that monster regime … hope there´s a window, too one day😎

  17. Mongolia is 100% dependent on Russian oil. Not going to risk it for Ukraine. Its their war, not Mongolia’s and stop crying out loud and blaming other Countries for your own stupid war.

  22. Ukraine will pay a very big price in terms of Land ,Human resources and financial resources.If the democrates loose power it will be disaster for Ukraine especial Zelensky

  27. THE MORE THE WEST LOSES THE GREATER NUMBER OF LIES IT MUST TELL

    The western powers won’t lose in Ukraine. Zelensky will achieve his victory and the Russians will be defeated.

    All of the above will come true… on paper and on your screen. No matter what happens in Ukraine.

    Putin plans to attack, invade and occupy all of Europe after taking Ukraine if he is not stopped, before embarking upon a conquest of the USA. This is a true and accurate reflection of the current reality… Lloyd Austin has said so.

    The events that occurred in the south-east of Ukraine from 2014 until the present day are not relevant to the war Russia began to wage against Ukraine in February 2022. Fifteen thousand deaths during the years from 2014 (most of them Russian-speaking civilians) are not a factor requiring any consideration.

    Whatever you may have heard concerning what happened between 2014 and February 2022 in south-eastern Ukraine does not pertain in any way to the “unprovoked” attack upon Ukraine by Russia. If you are curious about whatever happened there at that time there is only one thing you need to know, it was brought about by “Russian aggression”.

    The events which took place on Kiev’s Maidan Square from late 2013 to early 2014 can be characterized as a people’s revolt against repression and was a peaceful demonstration of democracy in action. The president and government of that time were culpable for the deaths of the ‘Heavenly Hundred’ who died at the hands of their psychopathic security services. The demonstrators were totally peaceful, no gun was fired, no Molotov cocktail was thrown, neither bricks, clubs, chains, nor toxic sprays were in evidence. No government buildings were burned down due to this demonstration of wholly justified peoples’ power.

    The USA nor the EU influenced the events on the Maidan and no officials for those entities attempted to influence the proceedings, nor did they make speeches in support of the protestors or make a phone call discussing who should be a member of the new government once the peaceful protestors had ousted those, who had certainly NOT been democratically elected.

    There was no peoples’ revolt in south-eastern Ukraine concerning the fall of the president and government of Ukraine. They certainly did not fear for their lives, culture and language as a result. The Ghandi-like peaceful protestors who did not use any form of violence against the security forces on the Maidan would never harm them in any way. Seventeen policemen did not die as a result of the peaceful protest conducted with honor and dignity by the virtual saints opposing the evil government on Maidan Square.

    No troops, tanks, helicopters or planes were sent to south-eastern Ukraine when the Russian-fomented coup occurred there. The Russian plot to invade and conquer Ukraine was defeated using dialogue from afar.

    No referendum took place in the Donbass. This was merely a fiction spread by Russian propaganda.

    There are no men or women in Ukraine that honor the memory of Adolf Hitler or the Nazi troops that occupied Ukraine and took part in the invasion of Russia, ‘Operation Barbarossa’. No Ukrainian would ever dream of having their body tattooed with swastikas, neither would any political party in Ukraine employ the same salute used by the Nazis during World War Two. All Ukrainians who live in are completely peaceful individuals, tolerant of all ethnic minorities and would never dream of denying any ethnic minority of their language or cultural affiliations. Quite the reverse.

    The new Minister of Education never visited kindergartens asking children their names, nor did she chastise those with Russian names nor praise those with Ukrainian names.

    No symbol used by political parties in Ukraine bears any resemblance to those used by the National Socialists during World War Two. If any such symbols were misconstrued as such this is simply due to the ignorance of the observer.

    No torch-lit parades ever take place in Ukraine and no chant concerning “Russians on knives” has ever been heard in Ukraine.

    The Russian-speaking people of eastern Ukraine were never given the pejorative name, ‘Moskals’ to identify them as nothing better than Russians. There has been no effort whatsoever to harm such people, to torture, murder or ethnically cleanse them.

    If there is any question concerning blame for the present conflict in Ukraine there is only one fact that need be recognised; everything has been the fault of the Russians.

    Soon the glorious Ukrainian people, in all their righteous purity and innocence will drive the evil Orcs from their land and not a hair on the head of any of the Russian-speaking people of those regions will be touched. There has been no and there will be no filtering system to identify and eliminate those who welcomed the Russian invaders.

    All will be sweetness and light once the Russian Orcs have been driven out. The Ukrainian economy will boom and every last home, road, shopping center, park, theater and pavement will be repaired and renewed within weeks of Ukraine’s total liberation.

    Volodomyr Zelensky will receive the Nobel Peace Prize.

    (This last is the only statement likely to prove true from all of the above.)
