Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said the Kremlin is ready to negotiate if the West "fully takes into account the interests" of Russia, according to state-controlled news outlet RIA Novosti.

Dmitry Peskov made similar comments today, saying Vladimir Putin and Joe Biden could "discuss Russia's security guarantees" but that such talks would require US willingness to return to "the state of December-January". 

Back in December, the Kremlin drafted agreements and sent them to NATO and the US. 

In the documents, it had demanded that NATO would not expand further, and would abandon any military activity on the territory of Ukraine, other states of Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

This was rejected by the US and NATO at the time.

Eventually something will happen, as no war lasts forever.  

The question is when will it end?

In few days, weeks? months? years?

We know that some leaders continue fighting for their own survival, against the very interests of their country and their own people, so we may see some twists in this conflict.

War in Ukraine could 'flare up and die down for a generation', expert says

The war in Ukraine is an ongoing conflict which could "flare up and die down for a generation", Professor Michael Clarke, former director-general at the Royal United Services Institute has said.

Speaking about what could happen going forward in the war, the defence analyst told Sky's Mark Austin: "It's impossible to imagine this war carrying on with this intensity indefinitely. It will go up and down. 

"My guess is it will certainly run into next year. 

"My second guess is there will be an unstable ceasefire which will probably favour Ukraine more than we thought it would a couple of months ago."

Mr Clarke went on to say the war would be an "on and off" conflict and the West needed to be prepared for that.

"This is an ongoing conflict which could flare up and die down for a generation," he added.

Interesting. Putins first excuse for attacking Ukraine was to save them from Western influence, so now he plans to nuke them to save them? 

Insanity....

Putin signs law to mobilise Russian citizens convicted of serious crimes.
[9news {Au} 14 hours ago]

Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law to conscript citizens with unexpunged or outstanding convictions for murder, robbery, larceny, drug trafficking and other serious crimes under the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation to be called up for military service to mobilise.

This makes it possible to mobilise hundreds of thousands of people who have been sentenced to probation or have recently been released from colonies who were previously forbidden to serve.

The only group of criminals exempted from the decree are those who committed sex crimes against minors, treason, spying or terrorism...

“Russian education minister Sergey Kravstov announced that military training will return to Russian schools from September 2023, according to the MoD update.

It added: “This reprises a Soviet-era programme where students had mandatory military training, a programme which ended in 1993. This training included contingencies for a chemical or nuclear attack, first aid and experience handling and firing Kalashnikov rifles.“

 

“This initiative is also likely to be part of a wider project to instil an ideology of patriotism and trust in public institutions in the Russian population.”

In a statement ahead of the summit, Sunak said: “Putin’s war has caused devastation around the world – destroying lives and plunging the international economy into turmoil.

“This G20 summit will not be business as usual. We will call out Putin’s regime, and lay bare their utter contempt for the kind of international cooperation and respect for sovereignty forums like the G20 represent.

“In clear contrast to Putin’s disruption, the UK and our allies will work together to make meaningful progress solving the economic challenges we face and making lives better for our people.”

Its amazing to look at the difference between what is happening in Ukraine now and what happened in Crimea in 2014. Putin annexed Crimea in just over a month and the world seemed to hardly notice.

Crimea was a troubled area for a long time. It has been an area where it was dominated by the Mongols, then the Ottomans, then the Russian Empire, where they had a few scuffles with the communist regime before succumbing into the USSR.

 

It was originally under Russian Communist control but was given to the Ukrainians to control back in 1954 (as Russia viewed it as a minor insignificant area after Stalin deported a lot of the opposers of his regime out of the country). However, when the Ukrainian's gained their independence in 1991, the Crimean's didn't to be with them or Russia, and wanted their own republic. This then caused its own issues for some time, but things really got heated as they didn't like the Ukrainian president at the time in 2014 as they viewed him as siding with the Russians, but they were eventually taken over by the Russians directly. But most of the other countries view Crimea as still being part of Ukraine, whereas I think the Crimean's just want to be on their own.

Perhaps KOTN was counting on similar reaction from Western leaders. Reaction of the world back in 2014 was “very soft” Well KOTN perhaps thought that the risk is worth it. To control whole Ukraine vs few “soft sanctions “ was apparently too tempting to ignore. Today we see how the reality turned out … Western support is very strong, Ukraine is pushing back harder and harder…. It just shows how political system is so ugly and beastly, as described in the Bible.

Breaking news- possible Russian missiles land in Poland which is NATO territory. Don’t know how much is true but if it is it could cause a reaction from NATO, possibly the start of WW3.

Breaking news- possible Russian missiles land in Poland which is NATO territory. Don’t know how much is true but if it is it could cause a reaction from NATO, possibly the start of WW3. 

From the article

Moscow launched a large number of missiles at Ukraine on Wednesday, knocking out power for seven million households.

 

It is unclear whether the two missiles that apparently landed in Poland were part of the same wave, but it is the first time Russian rockets are said to have reached Poland.

 

 

 

So, makes me wonder if the missiles malfunctioned, instead of this being a planned escalation.  On the other hand, a little planned annoyance can be shrugged off as accidental.

Poland has convened an evening meeting of its national security committee due to a crisis situation, according to a government spokesman who didn’t elaborate and referred to unconfirmed information.

[New World Explorer]

I don't think the missiles strike was deliberate.

Still, this is NATO territory, so it's serious enough especially with reported deaths. 

 

Polish media reported that two people died Tuesday afternoon after two stray Russian rockets hit Przewodow, north of Lviv, Ukraine’s most western city, killing two people.

As a NATO member Poland could seek to invoke collective self-defence from other member countries of the alliance which was formed to counter the Russian threat. The military alliance’s secretary-general, Jens Stoltenberg has previously claimed its 30 members would defend and protect every inch of their territory in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

[Michał]

As far as I know, nothing is confirmed. I guess our authorities want to triple check it there were Russian misiles that killed these Teo persons. 
 

A retired general speculated that they were stray missiles due to malfunction of some kind because they landed just 700 hundred meters from the border. 
 

im really concerned for our Ukrainian brothers. 7 mln people without electricity means a lot of friends won’t have meetings on Zoom.
