Die übliche Propaganda zum Tag
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation stated that:
1. The operation in Ukraine will continue as long as it takes for Kyiv to fulfill the requirements stated at the beginning of the operation (that is, demilitarization, denazification, recognition of the LDNR, recognition of Crimea, etc.).
2. Since Russia’s withdrawal from the Council of Europe on March 16, 2022, Russia no longer considers itself bound by its legal acts.
Klare Ansagen.
Russische Version der Lage: Mariupol has the most events. Ours have made good progress towards the center of the city, many areas are already under our control. Finally, they began to evacuate people – more than 30 thousand people left today. During the day, the building of the Drama Theater was blown up: the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation stated that today aviation and artillery in the city of Mariupol did not work. Apparently the building was blown up by the militants of the retreating Azov. Whether there are peaceful people under the rubble is still not clear.
On the rest of the Donbass front: strong fighting continues in Gulyaipole. In Vuhledar, the forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine began to withdraw from the city. F(…) It is reported that Verkhnetoretsky (?) is being cleaned up, The army of the LPR is fighting for Rubizhne, Severodonetsk is blocked, there are battles on the outskirts.
Douglas Macgregor, Ex-Oberst der US-Armee („Macgregor said he believed Russia should be allowed to seize whatever parts of Ukraine it wanted“), ha sich irgendwo über die Situation ausgelassen, und die Russen greifen das dankbar auf.:
▪️Still active Ukrainian units are cut off and surrounded in various settlements. They are capable of only small attacks on insignificant objects. The outcome of the war is predetermined.
▪️For the Russian army, the main problem was initially the requirement to advance without great destruction and civilian casualties. This creates the illusion of slow progress, which the West uses to convince the whole world that Russia is losing.
▪️The war can be ended quickly by scoring destruction and casualties, but Putin categorically does not need this. 70% of Russian citizens support their president – that’s a lot.
▪️In the south-east of Ukraine, 16 thousand soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are surrounded. This has been going on for several days, and it is not known how much they have left. But Russia is not interested in their destruction – it is better that they surrender.
▪️The Russian army is trying to avoid the central part of Ukraine so as not to enter the fields so as not to interfere with the sowing campaign.
▪️ The task of the Russian army is to take control of all important objects. The territory of Russia is not needed – only the destruction of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The goal is almost reached, without taking into account the troops in the environment.
▪️Mariupol is a big problem: there are a lot of Nazis from Azov, which is fraught with great destruction. But McGregor doesn’t know what the Russian high command has in mind.
▪️In the United States, they are rubbing about universal evil in the person of Putin, all information about the events until 2014, about 14 thousand dead during the conflict in Donbass, is hushed up. But McGregor is confident that the truth will come out anyway.
▪️The biggest lie on American TV is about the order of the Russian Army to kill Ukrainian civilians. Mistakes happen, but intentional killings are out of the question.
Bei dem sage sogar ich, dass der „umstritten“ ist. Har har.
Übrigens: Propaganda kann ich auch (vgl. oben)
Es gibt mittlerweile einige Videos auf den üblichen Propaganda-Kanälen, die die Tschetschenen in Mariupol zeigen. Die behaupten, dass sie am Wochenende die Stadt im Griff haben werden. Ich wollte eigentlich die Geodaten dieser Videos überprüfen. Ein Freund empfahl mir für Windows DaVinci Resolve, da ich beim Zeitpunkt der Frage nicht an meinen Linux-Rechnern saß. Da muss ich aber erst das fucking manual lesen.
