Major General Kirill Budanov, the Chief Intelligence Officer, believes that this year Russia should focus on doing everything possible to return Crimea to Ukraine by summer. He does not believe that an offensive from Belarus is likely, as this would only serve to distract and divide the defense forces. When asked if he believes that the entry of Ukrainian troops into the occupied Crimea would encourage Putin to use nuclear weapons, the Chief of the GUR stated that this is not true and that Crimea will be returned to Ukraine. He further stated that the conflict began in Crimea in 2014 and will end there, and that any suggestion of a nuclear strike is simply a scare tactic, as it would not only lead to Russia's military defeat, but to the collapse of the country.

On the territory of Belarus, the A-50U long-range radar detection and control unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was launched. It supplies fighter pilots with information about targets.

In an interview with The Washington Post, Chief of the Main Intelligence Directorate Kyrylo Budanov stated that Russia will focus on the occupation of Donetsk and Luhansk regions this year. He believes that a renewed offensive from Belarus is unlikely, as it would only be a distraction for the Defense Forces. He also said that the troops must do everything to ensure that Crimea returns home by the summer, and that the threat of a nuclear strike in response to the entry of Ukrainian forces to the peninsula is low, as it would lead to Russia's military defeat and collapse.

In #Ukraine it's reported Russian forces have raped Russian propagandist reporter, Olga Zenkova. Also beat up her cameraman. Incident occurred in occupied town of Melitopol in southern Ukraine.

The power system is still in a significant deficit. Today, no limits were exceeded and no emergency blackouts were implemented by Ukrenergo. Several thermal power plants were taken offline for technical reasons, meaning that electricity generation from the remaining plants is not enough to meet the demand. The repair of the energy infrastructure damaged during the large-scale attack on January 26 is still ongoing.

Can we call the current conflict a genocidal war?
Why is 🇷🇺 willing to eliminate 🇺🇦 and Ukrainian identity?
Why does it consider Ukraine an “artificial nation?”

The Belarusian Ministry of Defense has announced the commencement of new exercises with Russia. These exercises will involve the planning of the use of troops from both countries. During the week, representatives from the military departments of the two states will use the experience of recent armed conflicts to discuss the decision-making process for the use of a regional grouping in order to ensure the military security of an allied state.

Generations will look back at this time and wonder, “what on God’s green earth were humans thinking electing such an absolute incompetent criminal.”

Fox News just asked Trump what he'd do differently from Biden on Ukraine. "Well what I would do, is I would, we would, we have tremendous military capability and what we can do without planes, to be honest with you, without 44-year-old jets, what we can do is enormous, and we should be doing it and we should be helping them to survive and they're doing an amazing job." - Donald J. Trump https://mastodon.world/@leap441/109778405649427695
