Russian invasion of Ukraine: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 04:22, 1 December 2023

25 июня 2014 в Луганск вошла колонна российской техники. На тот момент городские онлайн камеры еще работали и это можно было спокойно наблюдать. Удивительно, но несмотря на очевидное некоторые будут 8 лет рассказывать “при чем тут россия, у вас гражданская война etc” On June 25, 2014, a convoy of Russian equipment entered Luhansk. At that time, city online cameras were still working and it could be easily observed. Surprisingly, despite the obvious, some will tell for 8 years “what does Russia have to do with it, you have a civil war, etc”

Since 2006, russia infiltrated/trained “separatists” in Eastern Ukraine. Since 2011, it started training its troops for invasion using German provided training center. First invasion happened in 2014, second in 2022.

“ The actions of Russia under President Putin blatantly violate not only the post-1945 European order, but the rules, understandings, and treaties underpinning the global order and contemporary international law since the end of World War II. In breaching national borders by force and in its multiple intrusions on the state sovereignty of its neighbors, Moscow contravenes the principles of the UN Charter, the Helsinki Declaration of 1975, the Budapest Memorandum of 1994 (guaranteeing the sovereignty of Ukraine), and the NATO-Russia Founding Act of 1997. Russia also has violated the rules of the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) of 1987, the Conventional Forces in Europe treaty of 1990, and other formal agreements.

— Robert J. Lieber, Retreat and Its Consequences, 2016, Cambridge University Press, p.8.

💬 #Zakharova: Today we mark another day of the “start of war with Ukraine,” which did not happen again, to the Western media outlets’ regret, no matter how hard they whip up the hysteria.

+Vladimir Putin has for the first time admitted the presence of Russian military specialists in east Ukraine.
+Russia has repeatedly denied a military presence in the conflict, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. But the Russian president conceded there were military intelligence officers operating in the country in a marathon press conference on Thursday.
+Asked by a Ukrainian reporter an hour into the briefing about two Russian military intelligence officers captured by Kiev and currently on trial in Ukraine, Putin said: “We never said there were not people there who carried out certain tasks including in the military sphere.” He insisted this was not the same as regular Russian troops.
+There was no opportunity for a follow-up question to examine how many military specialists Putin believes were in Ukraine and what exact tasks they were carrying out. At key moments in the conflict in east Ukraine there has been much evidence of regular Russian army involvement.
+Putin also initially denied the “little green men” present during the annexation of Crimea were Russian soldiers but afterwards admitted they were.
