Hs bio is pretty telling alright: "Crowdfunded journalist covering the Ukraine war in DPR"
A guy using the name Donetsk People's Republic doesn't sound particularly impartial.
Russian media are running reports saying Ukraine has brought In marshall law and anyone who disagrees will be executed without any legal procussions ....
Jesus wept
I see very clearly whats happening Burgerface, but there's a big difference there, when other world powers hold drills. they are not accompanied by a list of demands that are effectually interfering with that Country's ( an independent state ) right to self determination.
As for the gang of pitchfork holders analogy, that's exactly what's happening in Ukraine, but its the Russians holding the pitchforks. They have been doing it since 2014, and the death toll is at 15'000. You need to stand back Burgerface, and re assess your perception of events.
And the recent drills held by the Russian Navy in the seas off the coast of Ireland are proof that Russia has the same rights as anyone else in international waters.
But you don't have the right to place a large military force on the border with your neighbor and issue demands. Even if its on your own territory and using drills as a pretext.
It's funny how the very serious US spokesman in a good suit predicted an invasion to happen yesterday and nothing happened. The same "Intelligence" that promised Kabul was very safe a week or two before the Taliban took control.
And yet these people are taken as gospel when they describe Trump supporters as domestic terrorists and the like. It almost feels like there are no adults in power these days. What we have instead is some teenagers playing dress-up and making decisions without any real accountability.
Actually it's amazing how several on here were celebrating putin as the victor here and yet here we are with his military shelling ukraine ,and it's the Russians running every aspect of the show in the separatists areas
Unfortunately I've been pretty much right on the situation in Ukraine and Russia for the past 8+ Years , Russia has a Playbook for situations like this and page by page they are doing exactly what was said they would
You can read the daily updates on the OSCE Special Monitoring Misson to Ukraine site.
second one supposedly in progress.
Video footage earlier on of white smoke coming out of the Russian embassy in Kiev (nothing to do with the Pope btw).
Could be nothing, could be an indicator.
I actually hope he is wrong because if he is right it will be awful.
He's not exactly a journalist ,
I'm hearing noise off somewhere while randomly walking around a city or town
He’s a tad confused in further tweets. First off he said Ukraine had shelled a kindergarten in the annexed area. But turns out the kindergarten is in Ukrainian controlled area and was shelled by the other side.
But I’m gonna follow him cos he’s on the ground, stuff is happening there and replies to his tweets are fact checking him. He wasn’t near the kindergarten so may have just been misinformed.
Having suspected he's right please ensure you come back if he's wrong won't you, he's been wrong about everything else so far, he's an uncritical parrot for US intelligence..
Unfortunately I suspect you are right. Certain posters here will then praise Russia for saving the poor civilians in the newly "liberated" areas.
He literally says in the video that he can't hear the sound of artillery. He is not reporting any facts at all.
I'm all for getting information out from areas like this, but that's not what this guy is doing.
It's exactly what it is , they will start shooting until shoot back and Russia steams in to prevent Genocide and close the death camps
Hopefully it is one of the rebels being trigger happy and not the start of a provocation aiming to justify war.
You 'forgot' to mention the fire from the Ukranian side into the separatists areas....
Why ?
Because he is Donetsk on the ground and hearing bombs going off, also being reported in other places that is why.
If you have to ask the question what it's to do with this situation either you haven't been paying attention or geopolitics is not your thing either was please lay off the back seat moderation.
A Ukrainian village was shelled earlier with fire coming from separatists areas and heavy artillery hitting donesk airport
It's a gaslight pivot move whenever asked something directly that they can't/won't answer
Kicking off now. The usual false flags and pre invasion rhetoric from Moscow. Today is the day it seems.
What does that have to do with Russia threatening Ukraine?
Don't bother, I know. Iraq/Libya/etc etc.
Start a thread on US imperialism instead of trying to derail this one.
I see some lads here still trying to pretend US imperialism are cuddly little chaps who do no wrong and aren't right now involved in killing innocent people...
Another field hospital, troops and attack helicopters being sent to the border with Ukraine.....
Russia won't invade lol
I know it's an attempt at sarcasm, but highlighting 2 of the BBC's examples from 20+ known troop aggregation points along the boarder, with "Oh lOoK 150k SoLdIeRs" is just making you look stupid.
BBC were kind enough to point out where the troops are staying.
Evidently these tents can house 150,000 troops, who knew?
