Putin has a large store of prison inmates left for him to be used as cannon fodder: 468 237 prisoners he can dispose of...

⚡️ UK Defense Ministry: Russian conscripts face heavy casualties in Ukraine.

The U.K. Defense Ministry said there are likely high casualty rates among Russian conscripts due to frontal assaults in Donetsk Oblast and digging trench systems under artillery fire in Luhansk Oblast.

My friends in the UK may argue about it, but... Today, the city of Novomoskovsk (yes, this is a Soviet name of the city which means "new Moscow") in Dnipropetrovsk province, #Ukraine renamed one of the streets as a @BorisJohnson street. This is just a fact.

Replying to @MrKovalenko

They didn't say goodbye to Moscow yet and didn't rename their "new Moscow" city into something historically normal, but they expressed their gratitude to England by renaming the street after Boris Johnson. #Ukraine is a country of the Soviet-West contrast on the every corner.

And there is no Joe Biden street in any settlement in #Ukraine yet despite the lend-lease. Boris Johnson for several NLAWs got his own street first. This is just unfair. :-)

Die menschenverachtende 'Neutralität' der Schweiz
« Reply #1060 on: November 27, 2022, 04:28:42 AM »

Im Zweiten Weltkrieg fiel die Schweiz durch Ihre "Neutralität" auf: Wer sie als Verfolgter der Nazis um Hilfe bat, den ließ sie auf die Schnauze fallen - und schickte ihn, wenn möglich, zu den Nazis zurück.

Das ist heute nicht anders. Heute sind es die russischen Nazis, und es ist die unterlassene Hilfeleistung der Schweiz. Nicht der Schweizer, sondern der Schweiz. Staat und Bevölkerung ist nicht dasselbe.

Der "Beobachter", ein zu Ringier gehörendes Schweizer Blättli, schreibt am 23.11.2022:

"Viele Postbetriebe weltweit befördern Päckli in die Ukraine gratis. Nicht so die Schweizerische Post."
https://www.beobachter.ch/burger-verwaltung/ukraine-keine-humanitare-hilfe-von-der-schweizer-post-548721

Der Artikel von einer Redaktorin Andrea Haefely hat einige Hämmer parat:

[*quote*]
Bürger & Verwaltung
Ukraine: Keine humanitäre Hilfe von der Schweizer Post
Post: Keine Gratispäckli für die Ukraine
Viele Postbetriebe weltweit befördern Päckli in die Ukraine gratis. Nicht so die Schweizerische Post.
[*/quote*]

Da steht es schwarz auf weiß: "Ukraine: Keine humanitäre Hilfe von der Schweizer Post". Daß die Postler sich nicht schämen!? Wie wäre es mit einem Streik? Oder einer Volksabstimmung? Die Schweizer Postler setzen per Abstimmung die humanitäre Hilfe der Post durch, Wäre das nicht endlich einmal Courage?

Die Frau Haefely schreibt:

[*quote*]
Privatpersonen, die aus Deutschland ein Hilfspaket in die Ukraine schicken möchten, tun das am besten über den Paket- und Expressdienst DHL. Die Tochterfirma der Deutschen Post befördert solche Päckli bis 20 Kilogramm als humanitäre Hilfe kostenlos. Sie stellt sogar eine spezielle Etikette zur Verfügung, die man sich von der DHL-Website herunterladen kann.
[*/quote*]

Was denkt sich die DHL eigentlich dabei? DARF DIE DAS!? Einfach den Ukrainern helfen!? Wo kämen wir denn da hin!?

Es ist aber noch schlimmer. Die Frau Haefely fährt nämlich fort:

[*quote*]
DHL steht damit nicht alleine da. Beispielsweise auch die Georgischen Postbetriebe, die Royal Post von Gibraltar, die irische Post und unser östlicher Nachbar Österreich helfen den Menschen in der Ukraine auf diese Weise.
[*/quote*]

Nicht bloß die grundlos unsolide DHL macht das. Auch Georgien, die königliche Post von Gibraltar, die irische Post und die Post von Österreich verschicken die Päckli kostenlos.

Nein, die Schweizer Post tut so etwas nicht! "Die Schweizerische Post verzichtet auf diese Art der humanitären Hilfe." schreibt Frau Haefely.

Die Schweizer Post VERZICHTET, asketisch, wie sie nun mal ist. Askese natürlich auf Kosten der Verfolgten. Immer gut, wenn es die Anderen trifft.

Aber dabei ist, steht im Artikel, die Schweizer Post doch so unendlich selbstlos:

[*quote*]
Die Schweizerische Post verzichtet auf diese Art der humanitären Hilfe. Man unterstütze aber seit Ausbruch des Krieges Behörden und Organisationen, welche die Flüchtlinge in der Schweiz betreuen und versorgen, habe unter anderem 250 ausgediente Laptops neu aufbereitet, an Hilfsorganisationen abgegeben und die eigene Website teils auf Ukrainisch übersetzt. Zudem seien Geldspenden die wirksamste Soforthilfe.
[*/quote*]

250 Laptops? 250 Laptops!? Kann man die essen? Halten die das Zimmer warm? Was soll eine ukrainische Familie, der man gerade die Hauswand weggebombt hat, mit einem Laptop? Und Geldspenden? Das hieße ja, daß es in der Ukraine alles in Hülle und Fülle gibt. Man muß bloß in den Supermarkt, so wie die Russischen Nazis, und nimmt sich mit, was man will. Die Russen tun das natürlich ohne Bezahlung. Die nehmen bekanntlich sogar benutzte WC-Becken mit.

Der dickste Hammer kommt am Schluß:

[*quote*]
«Ein kostenloser Versand von Hilfspaketen hätte womöglich zusätzliche Sendungen zur Folge und würde die ohnehin stark eingeschränkten Transportmöglichkeiten auf dem Postweg zusätzlich belasten», lässt die Post weiter verlauten.
[*/quote*]

Was ist die Definition einer Post? Sie bringt Briefe und Pakete von einem Absender zu einem Empfänger. Aber die Schweizer Post will das nicht! Vor allem: Da könnten ja NOCH MEHR Pakete zum Verschicken kommen. Das wäre ARBEIT!

Die Bezeichnung "arbeitsscheues Gesindel" habe ich lange nicht mehr gehört. Die Schweizer Post hat das nun geändert.

100 Panzer in 20 Tagen. Reife Leistung. Dann dauert es für die restlichen 386 Panzer nur noch 77 Tage. Noch 11 Wochen, dann ist Putins Mörderbande reif für den totalen Endsieg. Wer wird Putin die Kugel verpassen? Oder wirft man ihn die Treppe runter oder aus dem Fenster, so wie man es bei seinen Kumpanen getan hat?

Daß nur noch so wenig Waffen zerstört werden, liegt daran, daß die Russen dort kaum noch welche haben. Dafür beißen jeden Tag mehrere hundert russische Nazis ins Gras.  ;D

Ukraine war latest: Multiple Ukrainian embassies receive blood-stained parcels with animal parts

Ukraine war latest: Multiple Ukrainian embassies receive blood-stained parcels with animal partsSpanish police officers stand near the Ukrainian embassy in Madrid, Spain, on Dec. 2, 2022.

    Key developments on Dec. 2:

        Ukraine's military repels Russian advances near 14 settlements in eastern Donetsk, Luhansk regions.
        Russia has lost over 90,000 troops in Ukraine since Feb. 24, General Staff says.
        EU makes final decision to cap Russian seaborne oil prices at $60 a barrel.Ukraine's Embassy in Madrid also receives blood-stained parcel.
        Zelensky approves Security Council proposal on banning Moscow-backed church.

According to Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, as many as 17 Ukrainian diplomatic missions abroad have received either letter bombs or blood-stained envelopes containing animal parts, such as cow and pig eyes, in recent days.

"This campaign is aimed at sowing fear and intimidating Ukrainian diplomats," Kuleba said in an interview with CNN.

"Everything started with the explosion in the Ukrainian Embassy in Spain. But what followed this explosion was more strange and, I would even say, sick," Kuleba said.

Multiple Ukrainian diplomatic missions reported they had received blood-stained parcels or were vandalized.

The latest incident was reported by Ukraine's ambassador to the Vatican, Andrii Yurash, who said on Dec. 2 that the entrance to his home in Rome was vandalized with what he believed to be animal feces.

"The door to the apartment and the stairs and walls in the entryway were smeared with a dirty substance with an unpleasant smell," he told the Associated Press news agency.

"It is hard to explain completely why and what is the reason of this terrible message, but it is no doubt a systematic trend, a systematic attack on Ukrainian missions around Europe," he said, referring to the blood-stained parcels that were earlier received by Ukrainian embassies in Spain, Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, Croatia, Italy, and Austria, the consulates general in Naples and Krakow, and the consulate in Brno.

Oleh Nikolenko, Foreign Ministry spokesman, said on Dec. 2 that Ukraine has a reason to believe that "it is a well-planned campaign of terror and intimidation" of the country's embassies and consulates.

Kuleba told CNN that Russia was either directly responsible or that it was someone "who sympathizes (with) the Russian cause and tries to spread fear."

Kuleba has ordered an increase in security measures at all Ukrainian embassies and consulates as cases of threats are being investigated.

Previously, envelopes with explosive devices were sent to the Ukrainian and U.S. embassies in Madrid, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Defense Minister Margarita Robles.

Similar packages were also delivered to the Torrejon de Ardoz air base in Madrid, which provides intelligence information to Ukraine's Armed Forces, and the headquarters of Spanish weapons manufacturer Instalaza, which produces rocket launchers supplied to Ukraine.

Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov said on Dec. 1 he believes that Russia could be behind a series of recent letter bomb attacks in Spain.

"The world is beginning to recognize that (Russia) is a terrorist state. And terror knows no borders," Reznikov said.
Russia's losses in Ukraine

Ukraine's General Staff reported that Russia had lost 650 soldiers over the past day, bringing the total number of service members lost in its invasion of Ukraine since Feb. 24 to 90,090 military personnel, according to Ukraine.

Over the past day, Russian forces attacked near Stelmakhivka, Chervonopopivka, and Bilohorivka in Luhansk Oblast and Hryhorivka, Vyimka, Bakhmut, Opytne, Klishchyivka, Kurdiumivka, Pivnichne, Pervomaiske, Krasnohorivka, and Mariinka in Donetsk Oblast, the General Staff added.

No towns were lost.

The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said in its latest report that Russia may be withdrawing its military personnel from positions closer to the front line in Zaporizhzhia Oblast to reduce the impact of increasing Ukrainian strikes on Russian manpower and equipment.

On Dec. 1, the Ukrainian General Staff said that Russian forces have withdrawn or are currently withdrawing personnel from Polohy, Myhailivka, and Inzhenerne in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

The potential withdrawal from Polohy is "particularly notable," ISW, the U.S. think tank, says.

The settlement lies at a critical road junction, and Russian forces would likely have a harder time defending occupied Tokmak (a city 120 kilometers south of Zaporizhzhia) from a possible Ukrainian attack.

"The withdrawal from a critical position may suggest that Russian forces cannot defend the entire frontline in Zaporizhzhia Oblast and are prioritizing where to concentrate forces," the ISW found.
Ukraine aims to ban Moscow-backed church

President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a decree on Dec. 2 supporting the National Security and Defense Council's proposal to draft a law banning Russian-affiliated religious groups.

Zelensky's decree instructs the government to draft a bill on such a ban within two months.

The bill is expected to be considered by the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament. At the same time, a list of Russian-linked clergy members subject to economic and other sanctions will be published later, said Zelensky.

The primary target of these measures is the Ukrainian Orthodox Church – Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP), an affiliate of the Russian Orthodox Church, which has been subject to multiple raids by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) since Nov. 23.

The SBU reported on Dec. 2 that it was conducting searches at churches and monasteries of the UOC-MP in Zhytomyr, Rivne, and Zakarpattia oblasts.

During previous raids, the SBU allegedly found Russian propaganda and xenophobic literature, Russian passports belonging to senior clergy, and documents with pro-Russian ideological messages at the premises of the UOC-MP.

In May, the Moscow-affiliated Ukrainian church said it would have "full independence" from the Russian Orthodox Church.

The Ukrainian branch also said that it "condemns the war" and "disagrees with the position of Patriarch Kirill of Moscow on the war in Ukraine."

However, skeptics said it was just a ploy to appease critics since the Ukrainian branch effectively remained part of the Russian church and did not declare "autocephaly" – the Orthodox term for genuine independence.

Despite the Moscow-backed church's public statements about the war, its agenda remains intertwined with the Kremlin's ideology, and they officially remain subordinated to the Russian church in the hierarchy of the Orthodox world.

Patriarch Kirill, the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, has been vocal in his support for Russia's war against Ukraine.

In September, he said that fighting against Ukraine "washes away sins."

As a result of Russia's full-scale invasion, more and more Orthodox parishes started switching from the Kremlin-backed church to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
EU sets cap for Russian seaborne oil at $60 a barrel

"The EU agreement on an oil price cap, coordinated with G7 and others, will reduce Russia's revenues significantly," European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Dec. 2. "It will help us stabilize global energy prices, benefitting emerging economies around the world."

The decision envisages an adjustment mechanism to keep the cap at 5% below the market price.

The measure is also intended to limit Russia's ability to fund its aggression against Ukraine.

Also, an embargo on Russian seaborne oil approved by the EU in June will take effect on Dec. 5.

Since Russian seaborne oil will be banned for EU countries, the price cap is a measure intended mostly for non-EU countries. Insurers for the oil market, which are mostly based in Europe, will be banned from dealing with Russian oil priced above the cap.

The price cap will also strengthen the effect of the bloc's sanctions against Russia following its invasion of Ukraine, von der Leyen said.

"Together with our partners, we stand united and firm in our opposition to Russia's atrocious war," she added.

Earlier in November, EU diplomats discussed a price cap on Russian oil in the range of $65-70 per barrel.

On Nov. 28, Bloomberg reported, citing data provided by Argus Media Ltd., a publisher of commodity prices., that Russia's Urals crude oil fell to $51.96 a barrel at the Baltic Sea port of Primorsk — below the EU price cap.

Earlier the publication said Russia had already lost most of its oil market in the European Union's northern countries even before the EU embargo on Russian oil was set to take effect.

According to Bloomberg, Russian oil shipments to northern Europe have fallen below 100,000 barrels a day, compared to 1.2 million barrels a day sent to the region's ports each day in early February.

Das sieht böse aus. Vor allem wegen der Drohnen. Rußland hat anscheinend eine neue Lieferung aus dem Iran erhalten.

⚡️UK Defense Ministry: Russia likely started using new batch of Iranian drones in Ukraine.

Russia has likely “exhausted its previous stock of several hundred Shahed-131s and 136s and has now received a resupply,” according to the U.K Defense Ministry.

Dec. 21, 2022

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine spoke before a joint meeting of Congress on Wednesday night, delivering in halting but forceful English an impassioned speech that thanked the United States for its support in his nation’s war against Russia and vowed victory as he pleaded for further aid. The following is a transcript of his remarks, as recorded by The New York Times.


"Thank you so much. Thank you so much for that. Thank you. It’s too much for me. All this for our great people. Thank you so much.

Dear Americans, in all states, cities and communities, all those who value freedom and justice, who cherish it as strongly as we Ukrainians in our cities, in each and every family, I hope my words of respect and gratitude resonate in each American heart.

Madam Vice President, I thank you for your efforts in helping Ukraine. Madam Speaker, you bravely visited Ukraine during the full-fledged war. Thank you very much. Great honor. Thank you.

I am very privileged to be here. Dear members of the Congress, representatives of both parties who also visited Kyiv, esteemed congressmen and senators from both parties who will visit Ukraine, I am sure, in the future; dear representatives of diaspora, present in this chamber, and spread across the country; dear journalists, it’s a great honor for me to be at the U.S. Congress and speak to you and all Americans.

Against all odds and doom-and-gloom scenarios, Ukraine didn’t fall. Ukraine is alive and kicking. Thank you. And it gives me good reason to share with you our first, first joint victory: We defeated Russia in the battle for minds of the world. We have no fear, nor should anyone in the world have it. Ukrainians gained this victory, and it gives us courage which inspires the entire world.

Americans gained this victory, and that’s why you have succeeded in uniting the global community to protect freedom and international law. Europeans gained this victory, and that’s why Europe is now stronger and more independent than ever. The Russian tyranny has lost control over us. And it will never influence our minds again.

Yet, we have to do whatever it takes to ensure that countries of the Global South also gain such victory. I know one more, I think very important, thing: The Russians will stand a chance to be free only when they defeat the Kremlin in their minds. Yet, the battle continues, and we have to defeat the Kremlin on the battlefield, yes.

This battle is not only for the territory, for this or another part of Europe. The battle is not only for life, freedom and security of Ukrainians or any other nation which Russia attempts to conquer. This struggle will define in what world our children and grandchildren will live, and then their children and grandchildren.

It will define whether it will be a democracy of Ukrainians and for Americans — for all. This battle cannot be frozen or postponed. It cannot be ignored, hoping that the ocean or something else will provide a protection. From the United States to China, from Europe to Latin America, and from Africa to Australia, the world is too interconnected and interdependent to allow someone to stay aside and at the same time to feel safe when such a battle continues.

Our two nations are allies in this battle. And next year will be a turning point, I know it, the point when Ukrainian courage and American resolve must guarantee the future of our common freedom, the freedom of people who stand for their values.

Ladies and gentlemen — ladies and gentlemen, Americans, yesterday before coming here to Washington, D.C., I was at the front line in our Bakhmut. In our stronghold in the east of Ukraine, in the Donbas. The Russian military and mercenaries have been attacking Bakhmut nonstop since May. They have been attacking it day and night, but Bakhmut stands.

Last year — last year, 70,000 people lived here in Bakhmut, in this city, and now only few civilians stay. Every inch of that land is soaked in blood; roaring guns sound every hour. Trenches in the Donbas change hands several times a day in fierce combat, and even hand fighting. But the Ukrainian Donbas stands.

Russians — Russians use everything, everything they have against Bakhmut and other our beautiful cities. The occupiers have a significant advantage in artillery. They have an advantage in ammunition. They have much more missiles and planes than we ever had. It’s true, but our defense forces stand. And — and we all are proud of them.

The Russians’ tactic is primitive. They burn down and destroy everything they see. They sent thugs to the front lines. They sent convicts to the war. They threw everything against us, similar to the other tyranny, which is in the Battle of the Bulge. Threw everything it had against the free world, just like the brave American soldiers which held their lines and fought back Hitler’s forces during the Christmas of 1944. Brave Ukrainian soldiers are doing the same to Putin’s forces this Christmas.

Ukraine — Ukraine holds its lines and will never surrender. So, so, here the front line, the tyranny which has no lack of cruelty against the lives of free people — and your support is crucial, not just to stand in such fight but to get to the turning point to win on the battlefield.

We have artillery, yes. Thank you. We have it. Is it enough? Honestly, not really. To ensure Bakhmut is not just a stronghold that holds back the Russian Army, but for the Russian Army to completely pull out, more cannons and shells are needed. If so, just like the Battle of Saratoga, the fight for Bakhmut will change the trajectory of our war for independence and for freedom.

If your Patriots stop the Russian terror against our cities, it will let Ukrainian patriots work to the full to defend our freedom. When Russia — when Russia cannot reach our cities by its artillery, it tries to destroy them with missile attacks. More than that, Russia found an ally in this — in this genocidal policy: Iran. Iranian deadly drones sent to Russia in hundreds — in hundreds became a threat to our critical infrastructure. That is how one terrorist has found the other.

It is just a matter of time when they will strike against your other allies if we do not stop them now. We must do it. I believe there should be no taboos between us in our alliance. Ukraine never asked the American soldiers to fight on our land instead of us. I assure you that Ukrainian soldiers can perfectly operate American tanks and planes themselves.

Financial assistance is also critically important, and I would like to thank you, thank you very much, thank you for both financial packages you have already provided us with and the ones you may be willing to decide on. Your money is not charity. It’s an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way.

Russia, Russia could stop its aggression, really, if it wanted to, but you can speed up our victory. I know it. And it, it will prove to any potential aggressor that no one can succeed in breaking national borders, no one committing atrocities and reigning over people against their will. It would be naïve to wait for steps towards peace from Russia, which enjoys being a terrorist state. Russians are still poisoned by the Kremlin.

The restoration of international legal order is our joint task. We need peace, yes. Ukraine has already offered proposals, which I just discussed with President Biden, our peace formula, 10 points which should and must be implemented for our joint security, guaranteed for decades ahead and the summit which can be held.

I’m glad to say that President Biden supported our peace initiative today. Each of you, ladies and gentlemen, can assist in the implementation to ensure that America’s leadership remains solid, bicameral and bipartisan. Thank you.

You can strengthen sanctions to make Russia feel how ruinous its aggression truly is. It is in your power, really, to help us bring to justice everyone who started this unprovoked and criminal war. Let’s do it. Let terrorist — let the terrorist state be held responsible for its terror and aggression and compensate all losses done by this war. Let the world see that the United States are here.

Ladies and gentlemen — ladies and gentlemen, Americans, in two days we will celebrate Christmas. Maybe candlelit. Not because it’s more romantic, no, but because there will not be, there will be no electricity. Millions won’t have neither heating nor running water. All of these will be the result of Russian missile and drone attacks on our energy infrastructure.

But we do not complain. We do not judge and compare whose life is easier. Your well-being is the product of your national security; the result of your struggle for independence and your many victories. We, Ukrainians, will also go through our war of independence and freedom with dignity and success.

We’ll celebrate Christmas. Celebrate Christmas and, even if there is no electricity, the light of our faith in ourselves will not be put out. If Russian — if Russian missiles attack us, we’ll do our best to protect ourselves. If they attack us with Iranian drones and our people will have to go to bomb shelters on Christmas Eve, Ukrainians will still sit down at the holiday table and cheer up each other. And we don’t, don’t have to know everyone’s wish, as we know that all of us, millions of Ukrainians, wish the same: Victory. Only victory.

We already built strong Ukraine, with strong people, strong army, strong institutions together with you. We developed strong security guarantees for our country and for entire Europe and the world, together with you. And also together with you, we’ll put in place everyone who will defy freedom. Put-in.

This will be the basis to protect democracy in Europe and the world over. Now, on this special Christmastime, I want to thank you, all of you. I thank every American family which cherishes the warmth of its home and wishes the same warmth to other people. I thank President Biden and both parties, at the Senate and the House, for your invaluable assistance. I thank your cities and your citizens who supported Ukraine this year, who hosted our Ukrainians, our people, who waved our national flags, who acted to help us. Thank you all, from everyone who is now at the front line, from everyone who is awaiting victory.

Standing here today, I recall the words of the president Franklin Delano Roosevelt, which are I think so good for this moment. “The American people, in their righteous might, will win through to absolute victory.” The Ukrainian people will win, too, absolutely.

I know that everything depends on us, on Ukrainian armed forces, yet so much depends on the world. So much in the world depends on you. When I was in Bakhmut yesterday, our heroes gave me the flag, the battle flag, the flag of those who defend Ukraine, Europe and the world at the cost of their lives. They asked me to bring this flag to you, to the U.S. Congress, to members of the House of Representatives and senators whose decisions can save millions of people.

So, let these decisions be taken. Let this flag stay with you, ladies and gentlemen. This flag is a symbol of our victory in this war. We stand, we fight and we will win because we are united — Ukraine, America and the entire free world.

Just one thing, if I can, the last thing — thank you so much, may God protect our brave troops and citizens, may God forever bless the United States of America. Merry Christmas and a happy, victorious New Year. Slava Ukraini. [Glory to Ukraine.]
