“Indian foreign minister reminded Europeans that their problems are not the problems of the whole world.
▪️The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was charged with buying Russian oil, to which he replied: “We do not send anyone to dig Russian oil. We are simply looking for the best deal on the market. I wouldn’t mix it with politics.”
▪️ “It is time for Europe to abandon the attitude: “My problems are the problems of the whole world, and the problems of the whole world are not my problems. If you are in trouble, then you are in trouble, and if I am in trouble, then we are in trouble,” the Foreign Minister also said.”
Not the most recent article on the topic--but still a good reminder of the power we now have at hand...

““Nicolas, did you know that you are Ukrainian?”
Vasily Nebenzya, the Permanent Representative of Russia to the United Nations and to the UN Security Council showed how history is distorted in Ukraine using an example of an ordinary Ukrainian geography schoolbook.”

According to one UK economist:
“Western countries will have to negotiate with Russia, because side effects of anti-Russian sanctions lead the world to a series of global crises, - Guardian.
The West’s “economic war” against Moscow is progressing “not according to plan” and is causing a number of dangerous “side effects,” writes a leading British publication.
Thus, due to anti-Russian restrictions, developed countries are already threatened with an economic recession, “rising inflation and unemployment.” And developing countries will soon experience a “combination of fuel, food and financial” shocks, which, apparently, will lead to a series of defaults on obligations to Western creditors and lead to a “full-scale global debt crisis”

UK mil trained merc back from #Ukraine talks about his experience:
The absolute lack of training for mercenaries and sheer chaos in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine - a former British officer about the Ukrainian army
A mercenary from the UK, and a former Navy officer, told how he went to Ukraine, and what came of it. According to him, there were many other “soldiers of fortune” from the UK, former military from the Navy, infantry, special forces, even from aviation. The vast majority are over 30 years old, but there were also 20-year-old youths who played enough of computer games like “Call of Duty” and decided to try themselves in a real war.
The British mercenary says that even people with experience in other armed conflicts were powerless in the face of what they saw in Ukraine: the absolute lack of training for mercenaries before being sent to the front and chaos in the ranks of the Ukrainian army.
“Even guys with experience from Afghanistan and Iraq were not ready for the war that is happening in Ukraine.”
