    • tl;dr "If someone uses biological, chemical, or tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine, its totally the US doing a false flag against us bro"



      The Russian Defense Ministry says Washington wants to use weapons of mass destruction to frame Moscow

      Russia has accused the US of planning to use weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in Ukraine in order to frame Moscow.

      The US is preparing “a provocation aimed at accusing the Russian armed forces of using chemical, biological, or tactical nuclear weapons,” Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, the head of the Russian Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection Force, said on Saturday.

      According to Kirillov, the supposed plans include “three scenarios.” The most probable scenario, he said, is a false-flag attack on civilians, or “an act of sabotage on Ukrainians sites, which were involved in the development of the components of weapons of mass destruction.”

      Kirillov claimed that the potential targets are the Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Station, which has been controlled by Russia since early March, and the site of a former chemical plant in Kamenskoye in eastern Ukraine.

      RBC Ukraina media outlet reported last year that the plant in Kamenskoye was used for uranium enrichment in Soviet times and still contains nuclear waste. Kirillov said the Russian Defense Ministry obtained a document which shows that the facilities there are in critical condition.

      The second option mentioned by Kirillov involves “discreetly” using WMDs “in small quantities.” He claimed that the Pentagon initially planned to deploy WMDs in Azovstal, a large steel mill in the Azov Sea port of Mariupol.

      While Russian and Donbass troops largely control the city, a handful of Ukrainian troops and civilians remain holed up in the mill, mostly underground. On Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin called off the assault on the mill, opting for a blockade instead.

      The last option is what Kirillov called “an open use of WMDs on the battlefield.” He said it could be used in the Donbass towns of Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, which are close to the frontline and controlled by Kiev. Kirillov called this scenario “the least probable.”

      The general said that last month, Russian intelligence services found three spray drones in Ukraine’s southern Kherson Region. He argued that the UAVs could be used to spray “biological agents and toxic chemicals.” Kirillov claimed that vials with an unknown substance were airdropped on Thursday on Russian troops. The vials are being studied by the Defense Ministry, he said.

      Kirillov noted that Russia disposed of all of its chemical weapons in 2017, while the Soviet Union scrapped its biological weapons program in 1972.

      Moscow previously claimed that Ukraine had maintained US-funded biological weapons research programs, citing what it said were documents from the country’s several laboratories. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky strongly denied these allegations, saying the labs were only conducting “ordinary scientific research.”

      In an interview aired on CNN last week, Zelensky said “all countries have to be worried” that Russia might use nuclear or chemical weapons.

      Izumi Nakamitsu, the UN’s top disarmament official, said last month that the organization was “not aware” of any biological weapons programs in Ukraine.

      In March, US diplomat Victoria Nuland testified before the Senate that the US was working with Kiev “to ensure that the materials of biological research do not fall into the hands of Russian forces.” The State Department, however, said the allegations of the US and Kiev conducting “chemical and biological weapons activities in Ukraine” were “outright lies.”

      Russia attacked the neighboring state in late February, following Ukraine’s failure to implement the terms of the Minsk agreements, first signed in 2014, and Moscow’s eventual recognition of the Donbass republics of Donetsk and Lugansk. The German and French brokered protocols were designed to give the breakaway regions special status within the Ukrainian state.

      The Kremlin has since demanded that Ukraine officially declare itself a neutral country that will never join the US-led NATO military bloc. Kiev insists the Russian offensive was completely unprovoked and has denied claims it was planning to retake the two republics by force.

          • holy fucking shit china.

            https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/7lj9-0_dc6HpwVpr8Al3VQ

            (1) To state our position straight to the point . Regarding the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the reason why the author clearly supports Russia is because: microscopically, Ukraine’s anti-Russian and Nazism first; mesoscopically, NATO’s eastward expansion and oppression of Russia; macroscopically, U.S. unipolar hegemonism is rampant and hegemonic first. . Putin's military action against Ukraine is not only a containment of Ukraine's anti-Russian campaign, but also a counterattack against NATO's eastward expansion, and a challenge to American hegemony. In addition, China and Russia have lost their teeth, and their families are in danger, which further strengthens our position. Therefore, regardless of international morality or national interests, while sympathizing with the Ukrainian people, we should support Putin, support the Russian army, support Russia, and hope that the special military operation against Ukraine will be successful.
            (2) Russia led by Putin is different from Tsarist Russia . In the past 20 to 30 years, whenever China is friendly to Russia or supports Russia in a certain matter, there have always been publicists who have jumped out to emphasize the history of Tsarist Russia's occupation of Chinese territory. In fact, their purpose is not to love the motherland and defend China's territorial sovereignty, but to provoke realistic Sino-Russian friendly relations in order to serve the interests of the United States. Furthermore, it should be pointed out that at this time and another, it was the aggressive czarist Russia and the Soviet Union that pursued great-power chauvinism (such as instigating Mongolian independence, the Zhenbao Island incident), not Putin, who occupied Chinese territory on a large scale in history. Leading reality Russia. Putin is the most friendly leader to China in the history of the Soviet Union and Russia. Russia under Putin's leadership has been implementing a friendly policy toward China for two or three decades. This back-to-back strategic cooperative relationship between China and Russia, which has reached the highest level in history, has become an important cornerstone of China's national security and foreign strategy.
            (3) It is wrong to oppose all wars regardless of right and wrong . Some well-known people oppose all wars. This is not a correct attitude, but a superficial and unhelpful attitude, even a hypocritical double standard. There are two reasons: First, peace, on the surface, is a state of peace without war, but in essence it is a state of non-violence of the strong. In other words, peace has never been prayed for, let alone opposed to war, but achieved through war. Only when wars are won can peace be created; only those who win can have the ability to defend peace. Second, wars are not uniform in their nature, but are divided into just and unjust. Unjust wars are wars of aggression and oppression, and we must oppose such wars; and wars against aggression and oppression should be supported. Historical experience tells us that without a war against aggression, there can be no national independence; without a war against oppression, there can be no liberation of the people; without the victory of a just war, there can be no just fruits of peace. National heroes and revolutionary martyrs are figures who have devoted themselves to the war of national independence or people's liberation and made meritorious deeds or made heroic sacrifices. At present, the public figures are indiscriminately anti-war. The essence is not anti-war and love for peace, but anti-Russia and love of the United States. The well-known people who shouted anti-war never opposed the most belligerent and bloodiest United States. This is their well-known international double standard. Those who pursue double standards are immoral, unreasonable, unable to be self-consistent, and are not qualified to discuss issues.
            (4) The principle of heaven is higher than the law . All wars against aggression and oppression are just and in line with the principles of heaven. As the invaded and oppressed, of course, we cannot restrain ourselves with the laws of the aggressors and oppressors. On the contrary, we must break through their legal shackles in order to launch a struggle, win victory, and create a new order that is in line with the laws of nature. Some people have emphasized that the Russian army's attack on Ukraine, an independent and sovereign country recognized by the United Nations, is aggression in legal terms, and this can be established in legal terms. But at the same time, we should realize that above the law there is the law of nature, and the law of nature is the supreme law. If we disregard the principles of heaven and only use law to discuss right and wrong, then all struggles against foreign invasion and oppression by rulers in history are illegal. Therefore, when the law is inconsistent with the principles of heaven, it is not allowed to reason about right and wrong with the law, but must be reasoned about right and wrong with heaven. This is the logic of Chairman Mao's emphasis on "rebellion is justified", and also the reason why the vast number of developing countries sympathize with and support Russia.
            (5) Putin's confidence in sending troops to Ukraine : first, the huge nuclear weapons left by the Soviet Union; second, powerful land, sea, air and space armed forces; third, huge reserves of oil and natural gas; fourth, sufficient food security for self-sufficiency; The eastward expansion of NATO and the legitimacy of American hegemony.
            (6) The lack of preparation due to underestimation of the enemy is the main reason for the poor progress of the Russian army . Judging from the battle situation, the Russian army was not well prepared in terms of force size, pre-war mobilization, supply strength, command mechanism, psychological state, and anticipation and response to difficulties. If the resistance of the Ukrainian army can be destroyed in one fell swoop, a quick decision can be achieved, a peace agreement is forced to be signed, and then the troops can be withdrawn promptly, then the subsequent stubborn resistance of the Ukrainian army, the refueling of the US and the West, and the escalation of the war will not be realized; There will be no major losses such as the loss of soldiers and the sinking of giant ships. It can be said that the price Russia pays for underestimating its enemies is painful and huge.
            As for why the Russian side is not prepared enough, it is estimated that due to inaccurate intelligence, the situation is misjudged and decision-making is inaccurate. President Putin is already highly confident, and in addition to being in a high position for a long time, the information he can receive is inevitably one-sided. Such a Suncheon Times-style information cocoon is unfavorable and even dangerous for strategic decision-making.
            (7) Other factors for the unsatisfactory progress of the Russian army . In addition to the lack of preparation due to underestimation of the enemy, there are also the following reasons: fear of civilian casualties, which reflects the progressiveness and morality of the Russian army, while the Ukrainian army seized the fear of the Russian army and used the Ukrainian people as human shields. Forcing the Russian army to be unable to use heavy weapons to carry out indiscriminate bombing, resulting in a decrease in offensive efficiency; insufficient military spending, insufficient use of precision-guided missiles, and even Russian fighter jets had to lower their flight heights to save precision-guided munitions to carry out conventional bombing and were shot down; the Russian army was shot down; The military reform is not ideal. Although the battalion-level battle group has better assault capabilities, its informatization, logistics supply and equipment maintenance capabilities are insufficient; its conscription system, the one-year service period is too short, and the recruits are not enough to form combat effectiveness; The level of capability and communication secrecy is relatively backward; the assistance of the United States and the West to Ukraine and Zelensky’s agitation have improved the will of the Ukrainian army to resist and combat effectiveness. The Russian army is not only fighting against the Ukrainian army, but the entire NATO.
            (8) The tenacity of Ukrainian resistance was unexpected . There are three reasons: first, Russia underestimated the enemy, which led to the poor progress of military operations, which inspired the confidence and morale of the Ukrainian army; second, the United States and NATO provided a large amount of weapons, equipment and intelligence assistance to the Ukrainian army, and began to attack Ukraine before the war. Third, the United States and NATO sent military advisers, special forces and mercenaries to Ukraine, which directly strengthened the Ukrainian side.
            The fierce resistance of the Ukrainian army to the Russian army, although out of the instinct and duty of the soldiers to protect their home and the country, is commendable, but because of their lack of understanding, they are actually just cannon fodder, which only adds to the destruction of life and does not benefit the country and the country. .
            (9) Comparison between Ukraine and Belarus . It is interesting to compare Ukraine and Belarus: both are former republics of the Soviet Union, the former restored capitalism, the latter retained the Soviet system; the former followed the United States and the West, the latter was friendly with Russia and China; the former had a There are a lot of rich people, and the latter has no rich people; the people of the former live in poverty, and the people of the latter live well; the former is chaotic and turbulent, and the latter is basically stable.
            (10) Public knowledge has hurt Ukraine . Ukraine, originally the most prosperous republic in the former Soviet Union, has a vast territory and is highly developed in both industry and agriculture. It is also recognized as one of the three major vegetable baskets in the world, along with California and Shandong. At the beginning of its independence, Ukraine generally pursued a balanced policy towards Russia and Europe. Russia and the West competed to win over. However, with the infiltration and evolution of the United States and the West, the political atmosphere in Ukraine has turned to the right, and pro-American public groups have become increasingly active. When they overthrew the pro-Russian democratically elected President Yanukovych under the instigation of the United States, the doom of Ukraine will inevitably come. . Subsequent elected presidents, without exception, were all pro-American Jews, all pursued pro-American and anti-Russian policies, and all pursued diplomatic pursuits to join NATO and the European Union. Domestic political corruption, official corruption, Ukrainian traitors and compradors prevailed, and the gap between the rich and the poor continued to widen. The political situation was chaotic, and the nuclear weapons and industrial base left by the former Soviet Union were completely destroyed. A country with excellent natural endowments and a good industrial and agricultural foundation was brought into the abyss by the public knowledge of Ukraine. Practice has proved that Ukraine, which follows the United States and the West, is not stronger, but weaker; not richer, but poorer; not more stable, but more chaotic; not safer, but more More dangerous; not kinder, but Nazism, and finally the Russians came in. This is the huge consequence of Ukraine following the United States. I hope that the post-war Ukrainian people can reflect on this deeply.
            (11) Viciousness and hysteria in America . The reason why Biden viciously cursed Putin and why the United States hysterically sanctioned Russia and mobilized its allies to besiege Russia with unprecedented strength is mainly because Russia has indeed pierced the sore spot of the United States and constituted a challenge to its hegemony. After the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, top U.S. multinational companies such as Starlink, Google, Microsoft, Apple, General Motors, Boeing, and GE all participated in the sanctions against Russia, and even joined the Ukrainian military to counter the Russian military. As for the eight major U.S. military-industrial enterprises, they were mobilized in an emergency and went all out to produce weapons and equipment for the Ukrainian army. This level of mobilization and participation also reflects, from one aspect, the crisis of American hegemony triggered by the Russian challenge.
            Some people ask, since Putin is challenging the hegemony of the United States, why does he not point his muzzle at the United States, but at Ukraine? This is known as a deliberate trolling. Russia's attack on Ukraine, which is pro-American and anti-Russian, and its counterattack against NATO's eastward expansion are ruthlessly slapping the United States by killing chickens as an example, and a brave challenge to the US hegemonic order. Therefore, Russia's special military action against Ukraine can be regarded as a prelude to resist US hegemony and build a fair and just new international order. This is the significance of Putin's respectability and this war.
            All over the world, the countries that have the ability and willingness to dismantle the US hegemony and thus lead the new international order are China and Russia. America and its minions certainly saw this. Now that Russia fired the first shot, it must be strangled with all its strength, and then it is possible to concentrate on strangling China. In this sense, Russia is indeed the last barrier for the United States and the West to contain and strangle China. To this end, the United States has carried out comprehensive mobilization and persecution, even imposing sanctions on Russia at the cost of killing one thousand enemies and one thousand losses. At the same time, it has vigorously aided Ukraine and introduced the rare Lend-Lease Act. It can be said that it did its best and spared no effort.
            The purpose of the United States' full assistance to Ukraine is not to undertake any international morality, nor to show love and affection for Ukraine, but to use Ukraine as an agent, as cannon fodder, to instigate them to consume Russia, increase Russian casualties, and then put Russia and Putin together. It collapsed, so as to free up its hands to strangle China and maintain its world hegemony. As for the bloodshed of the Ukrainians and the huge losses of Ukraine, it is not in the consideration of the United States.
            (12) America's "Dualism" and China's "Trilogy" . Whenever there is a major conflict, the United States always activates the public opinion machine, exerts diplomatic pressure, uses economic and trade means, and jumps out to force other countries to choose sides and follow itself to besiege its opponents; while China never does this, it just follows the right and wrong of the thing itself. Express an opinion, take a stand. After the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the performance of China and the United States is still the same. The reason for such a situation is that the United States and the West pursue "dualism", which is black and white, linear thinking, and believes that if they do not support me, they are the enemy. They are direct, blunt, domineering and narrow, with no room for flexibility and maneuver; China is different. Adhering to the "Trinity", apart from black and white, there is still a middle ground. I think that I am a friend if I don't oppose it, so I formed a united front policy with flexible space and room for maneuver and the famous "three worlds" theory.
            In the "dualism", "if you don't support me, you are your enemy", and in the "trinary theory", "if you don't oppose yourself, you are your friend", which reflects the difference in tolerance between Western philosophy and Chinese philosophy. Practice has proved that in order to create a grand pattern, a long-term career, a harmonious society, and a resilient life, Chinese culture is indispensable. It is conceivable that if international relations are handled in accordance with China's thinking and policies and strategies, there will be no world war, confrontation between camps, and incompatible chaos.
            (13) The impact of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict on Russia . The notable effects we can foresee are: First, Russia will be temporarily isolated politically; second, it will become relatively difficult economically; third, the conflict between Russia and the United States will be prolonged and open; Sweden is very likely to join NATO, and Russia's strategic security environment will be more severe; fifth, the Russian nation will no longer seek to integrate into the West, but will turn to the East and the South to a greater extent. The cooperative relationship between the Chinese countries will be closer, whether politically, economically, militarily or culturally. Of course, Russia still has the ideology of despising the East and valuing the West, and this force still expects Russia to be accepted by Europe; but the situation is stronger than people, and Russia's long-term efforts to integrate into Europe have not been successful. After the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Russia-Europe relations deteriorated. Such efforts are even less likely to succeed. It can be said that the fundamental way out for Russia to seek survival and further development lies in comprehensive and in-depth cooperation with China, India, Brazil, South Africa, Mexico, Iran, Turkey, Cuba and other countries, as well as other developing countries. In dealing with sanctions from the United States and the West, Russia's most beautiful countermeasures are in the financial aspect. Energy is settled in rubles, which not only saves the ruble exchange rate, strikes down the hegemony of the dollar, but also widens the settlement scope of the ruble. This case is a classic case of financial warfare. It is reported that 52 foreign organizations from 12 countries have joined the SPFS settlement system established by Russia.
            Regarding the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Russian side of course wants to end the special military operation as soon as possible to avoid lasting consumption, but this is a difficult problem for President Putin. The difficult situation that may arise is that, due to the continuous efforts of the United States and the West, the Ukrainian army and anti-Russian forces continue to receive political, economic and military assistance from the United States and the West. Even if the Russian army wins the decisive battle in Donbass, it may not be able to sign. A peace agreement cannot completely end the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the exchange of fire and conflict in eastern Ukraine and even some parts of the Russian-Ukrainian border may be relatively persistent.
            However, since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has evolved into a life-and-death battle and a last-ditch battle for Russia, the Russian people, as a fighting nation, will never compromise, but will go all out and fight to the death at all costs until victory is achieved. Russia's vast territory and rich resources provide them with sustainable support. Those who judge that Russia will lose are one-sided and short-sighted, and cannot draw correct conclusions.
            In the face of the unexpected conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the beatings of the United States and the West, the Russian nation, which once defeated Napoleon and Hitler, showed the extraordinary character of being indomitable, indomitable, and turning the tide. As the leader of the Russian nation, Putin has left a deep impression on the world with his amazing courage, outstanding wisdom and steady command.
            ( 13) The impact of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict on China . Time will prove that Russia's special military operation is beneficial to China and the world, at least the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
            The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has made the United States and the West more united, and it has also made China's cooperation with Russia more sensitive. This is a disadvantage that is not conducive to China. However, due to Russia's special military action against Ukraine, Russia has contained the power of the United States and the West, the strategic pressure faced by China has been alleviated, and China's strategic opportunity period has been extended; China's political and economic weight and comprehensive influence in the world will be further enhanced. And it will be regarded by more and more countries and people as the main force for maintaining peace, stabilizing the world, and upholding justice; in the foreseeable future, at least in the next few decades, the United States has fundamentally lost its alliance with Russia and China. possibility; due to the sanctions and embargoes against Russia by the United States and the West, the freed up market space in Russia is conducive to China’s development of overseas markets; with the implementation of Russia’s eastward strategy, Sino-Russian relations will be closer, and the scale and depth of cooperation will increase. Further strengthening; due to Russia's de-dollarization, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran and other countries will expand the scope of the use of RMB, the international status of the RMB will be further enhanced, and internationalization will take a big step; due to the turmoil in Europe, some of its funds will come to China, Invest in manufacturing that the United States does not have; because India refuses to follow the United States in sanctioning Russia, the relationship between India and the United States has cooled down, and there is a certain possibility of improving Sino-Indian relations, which is beneficial for China to concentrate its efforts on the provocation and containment of the United States and the West , of course, a lot of work needs to be done for this; due to the tense situation, countries have strengthened their armaments, which is beneficial to China's arms and equipment exports. Judging from the historical trajectory since the 20th century, Russia has been leading the way for China. The October Revolution brought Marxism to China and guided the political direction of modern China; the disintegration of the Soviet Union gave China is a huge warning, allowing China to learn lessons and avoid repeating the mistakes of the Soviet Union; the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has provided China with experience and lessons in resolving the Taiwan issue and how to deal with sanctions from the United States and the West.
            As for the possibility that the US and the West may impose new sanctions on China because China maintains cooperative relations with Russia, we need not be afraid. The sanctions against China that started with Trump have increased unabated during Biden's term, and practice has proved to have limited impact on China. Because of China's huge size and complete industrial system, and the United States has imposed a large number of sanctions on China and Russia, if new sanctions are imposed on China, the United States and the West themselves will be unbearable. Take Swift as an example, if the United States and the West dare to exclude China, their trading systems themselves will be emptied or paralyzed.
            (15) The United States is not the biggest winner of the Russia-Ukraine conflict . The Russian-Ukrainian military conflict has made NATO more consolidated and is about to expand further; it has made Europe more dependent on the United States; the United States' gains in energy and arms have increased significantly. However, due to Russia's financial countermeasures and the cooperation of India, Saudi Arabia and other countries, the trading scope and amount of the US dollar have further shrunk, and the US dollar's hegemony and its development trend have been significantly damaged. This is a huge and long-term loss to the United States. Much higher than the growth of energy and arms revenue; the United States’ refusal to send troops has exposed its weak and fearful nature, its reputation as the “leading big brother” has been damaged, and its moral reputation has declined. Although small European countries are closely following the United States, France, Germany, etc. China has gradually realized the unreliability of the United States, and even the "Taiwan independence" forces' confidence in the United States is also declining; more importantly, France, Germany, Italy and other countries have strongly felt that following the United States will not only gain nothing, but pay a huge material price. Its huge losses cannot be compensated from the United States at all, which means that the alliance between Europe and the United States can neither be strong nor long-lasting. There have been popular activities against sanctions against Russia in major European countries; It will inevitably lead to the outflow of its capital, but due to the hollowing out of the manufacturing industry in the United States, the proportion of European funds that can be landed in the United States will not be very high, and most of the funds will flow to China and India in different ways; in terms of developing countries, whether China or India , or Mexico, Brazil, and South Africa, Pakistan, ASEAN, the African Union, and the Arab League countries, they did not stand on the side of the United States, but on the stand of neutrality or sympathy for Russia. If there was no American hegemony, this situation would have It is even more prominent; the information about the secret biological militarization activities of the United States in Ukraine captured by the Russian army in Ukraine has put the United States on the stage of international morality. Although the United States and the West manipulate international public opinion, Russia’s disclosure of this matter is still It has had a wide range of international influence, and more and more countries and people have initially seen the source of the new crown virus and the evil nature of the United States, which is extremely detrimental to the moral reputation of the United States and will inevitably collapse further.
            In the face of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the wishful thinking of the United States is to unite its allies to strangle Russia, and then concentrate its efforts on encircling and suppressing China, thereby maintaining its world hegemony for a long time. However, due to its own lack of strength and the gradual rise of China and the world's anti-hegemonic forces, many countries no longer bow their heads to the United States, so the strategic goal of the United States cannot be achieved.
            At that time, Roosevelt sent troops to prevent Hitler from unifying Europe, and after defeating Hitler, he and Stalin carve up Europe, which is not only due to the strength of both sides, but also a kind of great wisdom. Because it is in America's interest that Europe is divided, not united. From this, it can be concluded that the endless eastward expansion of NATO is due to the greed and greed of the United States.
            (16) The biggest loser in the Russia-Ukraine conflict is Ukraine . After being attacked and bombed by the Russian army, Ukraine was in disarray. Not only were military facilities completely destroyed and military forces suffered heavy losses, but also the economic and traffic conditions were in a mess, and there was even the possibility of Ukraine being dismembered. This is a huge price for Ukraine to be anti-Russian, pro-American and Nazism, and it can be called a national mourning.
            In fact, if Ukraine does not pursue a pro-US and anti-Russian policy, there will be no conflict between Russia and Ukraine. After the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, if Ukraine can correct itself and reach a compromise with Russia in time, the two countries can still be at peace with each other. But the Ukrainian government, which is pro-American and anti-Russian, refuses to do so. Zelensky's backtracking and frequent face-changing are due to his actor's habits on the one hand, and the manipulation of the United States on the other hand, reflecting the "president"'s involuntary puppet status. This is not only the exposure of Zelensky's embarrassing situation as head of state, but also the tragedy and humiliation of Ukraine as a sovereign state.
            (17) Europe is the second biggest loser in the Russia-Ukraine conflict . In terms of the degree of damage, Ukraine is the first; in terms of the size of the loss, Europe is the largest. Due to the energy crisis caused by sanctions against Russia, the European economy will most likely fall into stagflation, unemployment will increase substantially, coupled with the influx of refugees, social unrest and government changes in Europe will become the norm. At the same time, it is foreseeable that European funds will be heavily diverted to the United States, China and India. In its relationship with the United States, on the one hand, due to security reasons, it has to rely more on the United States; on the other hand, it distrusts the United States even more, and its mentality of independence from the United States is more prominent. Germany and France have greatly increased their military spending, and their purpose is to become more independent from the United States, not the other way around. Hungary and Serbia, two pro-Russian leaders, were re-elected. Demonstrations in support of Russia or against sanctions against Russia took place in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Bulgaria, Greece and other countries. This shows that although it is more difficult for Russia to integrate into Europe, there is still the possibility of improving Russia-EU relations in the future.
            Overall, the outlook for Europe is not optimistic.
            Judging from Europe's performance in responding to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Europe, which was once the envy of the world, has experienced a sharp decline in the quality, knowledge and ability of its politicians after decades of development. In today's Europe, there is a love-hate relationship with the United States. On the one hand, they are dissatisfied with the hegemony, manipulation and insidiousness of the United States, and their desire for autonomy is often beyond words; on the other hand, they rely on the United States for politics and security. Taking ideology in command and pro-American and anti-Russian political correctness and moral correctness have become the norm. In the case of Russia's war against Ukraine, they turned a blind eye to the strategic malice of the United States towards Europe, and danced closely with the baton of the United States at the expense of their own economy. Their own losses were huge but they helped the United States count the money. Their stupidity is almost to the level of brain damage. . In order to sanction Russia, politicians even ridiculously suggested that people cut firewood, bathe and travel less to save energy. European Commission President Von der Leyen, who was a gynecologist, claimed to the public that he had found a good way to sanction Russia: while importing Russian energy, establish an account controlled by the EU, so that the EU can enjoy Russian oil and gas without Let them get the energy payment. Its naive and ridiculous, this is evident. Europe, which has left de Gaulle, Chirac, Schroeder and Merkel, is in fact "brain dead", and its probability of becoming a pole of the world has dropped significantly.
            (18) The impact of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict on Japan . Japan has followed the United States in imposing tough sanctions on Russia. Its direct impact was that a Japanese merchant ship was "mistakenly hit" by a Russian missile; Russia stopped negotiations with Japan on the ownership of the southern Kuril Islands (called the four northern islands by the Japanese side), and no longer allowed the Japanese to be exempted from visas. Landed on the island; 14 Japanese power companies lined up to file for bankruptcy as energy imports were blocked. What is likely to happen in the future is that Russia will develop the South Kuril Islands as a special economic zone on a large scale and invite China, South Korea and other countries to participate in investment. In the future, the possibility of Japan taking back the four northern islands will be almost zero, and the conflict between Japan and Russia will inevitably become protracted, and the possibility of local conflicts cannot be ruled out.
            Since it's not good for itself, why is Japan so aggressively sanctioning Russia? The reason is that one is to take the opportunity to express loyalty to the American master; the other is to deliberately create tension and seek an excuse to amend the pacifist constitution. Japan is a country that is accustomed to taking advantage of the fire and fishing in troubled waters. Whenever there is tension in the world, they always take the opportunity to do a few things that they usually dare not do, such as amending laws, expanding armaments, sending troops overseas, introducing anti-China measures, etc. . This time, it was the same. But it is foreseeable that in the face of a powerful Russia, Japan will not take any advantage.
            Conclusion: We are experiencing great changes unseen in a century . The so-called big change is that the human righteous forces led by China and Russia will break the US hegemonic order. The special military operation against Ukraine is a challenge to American hegemony. Now, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has spilled over from Russia and Ukraine to between Russia and the United States and the West, and has spread from the military field to politics, diplomacy, finance, energy, trade, science and technology, public opinion, culture and other fields, forming a large-scale mixed warfare. This contest has expanded the scope, deepened and accelerated the great changes unseen in a century. The direction of change is not conducive to US hegemony and the US-Western ruling order, but is beneficial to China, Russia and the vast number of developing countries.
            Of course, in order to maximize and realize the significance of this war, the premise is that China and the vast developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America will provide assistance to Russia at present, implement comprehensive and large-scale cooperation with Russia after the war, and jointly launch a campaign against the United States hegemonic struggle. In addition, in view of the fact that major American companies such as Google, Starlink, Boeing, Apple, etc. have been involved in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, my country should learn from the ancient teaching of "raising tigers" and strictly screen in the process of opening up investment, and such companies can no longer be allowed. Occupy the Chinese market and help its development.
            Due to the long-term peaceful evolution and political infiltration of the United States, Russia, like other countries, has a large number of well-known and American fifth columns, which oppose Putin under the banner of peace and anti-war, oppose special military operations against Ukraine, and in dozens of Demonstrations took place in the city, which posed political pressure on Putin's leadership and special military operations by the Russian army. Faced with this situation, Putin and Russia, as well as the forces that sympathize with and support Russia, must work together to win the victory of the special military operation against Ukraine as soon as possible; Conversely, if the Russian army falls into military passivity in Ukraine, Putin will surely fall into political passivity at home. In the worst case, pro-American forces will seize Russian power. In that case, China and the world's anti-hegemonic forces will face not only the United States and the West, but also a Russia that has become pro-American. This is a situation we absolutely cannot allow.
            The Russian-Ukrainian conflict and the various situations surrounding this conflict have proved three "unreliable": the United States is unreliable, and pro-American countries should not expect the United States to send troops to protect you in the event of a conflict with a nuclear-armed country, this is impossible; Neutral countries are unreliable, they remained neutral in the anti-fascist war, but gave up their neutrality when they were anti-Russian and turned to the United States, which disproves the unreliability of their neutrality; capitalists are unreliable, most of them will not share with the country when the country is in distress. Advance and retreat, but will choose to transfer assets, change nationality, and escape.
            Through the U.S. trade war with China and the hysterical response of the U.S. and the West to Russia, people have discovered that the basic principles of capitalism they have always advertised, such as the spirit of contract, free competition, market economy, presumption of innocence, respect for human rights, freedom of speech, press Independence and professionalism, the sanctity of private property, and even the American-style envy of "Hello, I'm better than you" are all false, or are no longer a fundamental principle to abide by. A streaking, discredited capitalist hegemony and its ruling order are heading towards disintegration with an irresistible trend.
            In the world after the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the economy will generally fall into a state of stagflation, the hot and cold wars will become more intense, the trend of multi-polarization will become more obvious, the arms race of various countries will heat up sharply, and the turbulence and uncertainty of the international situation will become more prominent; One thing is certain: the US hegemony and the ruling order of the US and the West will gradually decline, while the role and influence of China and the vast number of developing countries will be further enhanced. This is an irresistible trend.
            The Russia-Ukraine conflict was not initiated by China, and the root cause of the conflict has nothing to do with us. There is no room for being alone or staying out of the way, and there is no possibility of being exquisite and comprehensive. Under this circumstance, my country can only make choices and decisions based on the principles of heaven, self-interest and the lesser of two evils. We have already seen that even when dealing with the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and sanctioning Russia, the United States has not given up its pressure and provocation against China. Containing and strangling China, not allowing China to become strong, is the established strategy of the United States and the consensus of the donkey elephant. It is the overriding international strategy of the United States. It will not be changed by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, compromise or other factors. The malicious intent should not have the slightest illusion. Of course, while raising confidence and despising the enemy, and treating the United States as a paper tiger, we must pay attention to the enemy tactically, study the United States as a real tiger carefully, and prepare for military and all-round struggles.
            The world has been bitter and beautiful for a long time! Due to the domineering, selfishness, bullying and plundering of the United States, the gap between the rich and the poor in the world is widening, the conflicts and disputes in the world are deepening, the moral decline in the world is accelerating, and the turmoil in the world is intensifying. Progressive human beings change the world and build a more The desire for a fair and equitable new international order is growing. For China, it must follow the trend, work hard, follow the correct strategic policy, unite all forces that can be united, launch a great struggle that is rational, beneficial, and disciplined, and march toward a happy and beautiful new world! This is China's destiny!
            God bless China! Justice must prevail!(The author is the head of Sichuan Branch of People's Daily; source: Kunlun Policy Network, Kunlun Policy Research Institute)

                • Has anybody seen the videos from Patrick Lancaster on YouTube? Brothers spare me the “Russian propaganda” response, Pipes does not have an opinion on that.

                  it is simply interesting on the ground footage, in some videos he has footage of live battles, this is rare footage and interesting to view

                      its unclear to me what finland's trump card is if russia lobs a few airburst nukes at them but im rooting for them.
