Why no shock & Awe on Ukraine!!

 22 Feb, 2023 : President Putin: "We are not at war with the people of Ukraine, I have already said this many times, they became hostages of the Kiev regime and its western masters, who actually occupied this country in the political, military, and economic sense."

AIDS to UKRAINE



Oct 24, 2022
= Western aid to Kyiv reached almost 100% of GDP in 2022.
   Three-quarters of "aid" goes to war with Russia.

The Democratic majority in the US Congress is in a hurry to approve a new $50 billion support package for Ukraine before the end of the year, NBC reported. From January 2023, the composition of the parliament may change following the results of the elections, and it is not certain that the initiative will be approved.

 The obligations of Western countries to Ukraine - already provided and promised financial, military and humanitarian assistance - by the beginning of October amounted to $ 126 billion, Equality calculated according to the latest data from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy. This is 97% of the country's GDP for 2022, which is estimated by the IMF at $130 billion.

 About 75% of the assistance is the supply of weapons or the financing of Kyiv's military spending. The United States ($55 billion) and the European Union ($48 billion) allocated the most funds, or 0.3% of GDP each. The most active friends of the Kyiv regime are Estonia, whose assistance reaches 1.51% of its own GDP, as well as Latvia (1.29%), Poland (1.28%), Lithuania (0.83%) and the Czech Republic (0.74%). ). The Kiel Institute in its calculations slyly does not take into account the Russian Federation.

Meanwhile, Russia's obligations to the four regions of Novorossiya, if we count them in the same way as German experts, reach at least $79 billion, or 4.5% of GDP, Ravenstvo estimated. This makes the Russian Federation the biggest helper of Ukraine - that part of it that wished to be reunited with Russia. Moreover, unlike the West, the main part of the funds is planned to be directed to restoration, that is, peace is financed, not war.

 Further Questions:
1. How the West "helped" Kyiv
2. What the West gets in return
3. How Russia helps Ukraine

Must be the latest 'Washington Consensus@ hitting Pakistan?


13 Feb 2023 - Pakistan has reportedly stepped up military supplies to Ukraine via a German port, simultaneously with the Poland route, to transfer rockets for use in multi-barrel rocket launchers — ET Supplies of rockets were dispatched from the Karachi Port earlier this month and will enter Ukraine via Emden Port (https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/topic/emden-port) in Germany, said the people.

More than 10,000 rockets meant for use in Grad multi-barrel rocket launchers have been shipped, they said. Although Pakistan has been pleading with Russia for discounted oil amid its economic crisis, it has been supplying arms to Ukraine on a regular basis, said one of the persons, who did not wish to be identified. Karachi-based shipping firm Project Shipping last month facilitated supplies of 146 containers from Pakistan Ordnance Factories, ET had reported.

Last month, yet another shipment of 50,000 defence stores was reportedly sent by Pakistan Ordnance Factories
(https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/topic/pakistan-ordnance-factories) via Karachi.

Musk Makes new Ukraine Pledge

SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk has pledged to continue providing Starlink mobile satellite internet services in Ukraine for free even if he fails to persuade the US Department of Defense (DoD) to share the bill.

CNN reported last month that SpaceX had warned the Pentagon that it may stop funding the service unless the US government covers some of the costs of delivering some 25,000 Starlink terminals. 

Musk committed to his u-turn despite claiming the operation has already cost him $80 million, and will top $100 million by the end of the year. The world’s richest man has recently faced criticism from Kiev and the Western media for suggesting that Ukraine might have to recognize Crimea as Russian territory and possibly make other concessions in order to reach a peace deal with Moscow.

Around 22,000 terminals have already been delivered to Ukraine since the special military operation began.

10Feb 2023 : Ukraine “Nazi State Funded by Anglo-Saxons” - FM Spox Zakharova

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova slammed Ukrainian authorities for continuing their wild policies in her weekly briefing Friday, claiming they are “presenting a false image of a ‘peace-loving’ leadership - but the mask has fallen”.

“Ukraine is being presented as a free, state upholding democracy - but it is a Nazi state funded by Anglo Saxons used to confront Russia,” she added.

“The UK and the West have signed their support for the Nazi regime and publicly confirmed their commitment to the criminal actions of the leadership - they are silent about the annihilation of people holding different views. 

“Nobody said a word about how Kiev destroyed critical Donbass infrastructure.”

“The West has stepped up efforts to train Ukrainian soldiers. The EU intends to train 30,000 people - is this peace or preparation for more Ukrainians to never return home? The West must choose.

“The US is doing everything to escalate the conflict, prolonging it and resulting in more death - The blood of Russians is on the hands of those who provide arms to Ukraine.

The Big Stiff: Russia-Iran dump the dollar and bust US sanctions

News of Russian banks connecting to Iran’s financial messaging system strengthens the resistance against US-imposed sanctions on both countries and accelerates global de-dollarization.  


The agreement between the Central Banks of Russia and Iran formally signed on 29 January connecting their interbank transfer systems is a game-changer in more ways than one.

Technically, from now on 52 Iranian banks already using SEPAM, Iran’s interbank telecom system, are connecting with 106 banks using SPFS, Russia’s equivalent to the western banking messaging system SWIFT.

Less than a week before the deal, State Duma Chairman Vyachslav Volodin was in Tehran overseeing the last-minute details, part of a meeting of the Russia-Iran Inter-Parliamentary Commission on Cooperation: he was adamant both nations should quickly increase trade in their own currencies.

Ruble-rial trade

Confirming that the share of ruble and rial in mutual settlements already exceeds 60 percent, Volodin ratified the success of “joint use of the Mir and Shetab national payment systems.” Not only does this bypass western sanctions, but it is able to “solve issues related to mutually beneficial cooperation, and increasing trade.”

It is quite possible that the ruble will eventually become the main currency in bilateral trade, according to Iran’s ambassador in Moscow, Kazem Jalali: “Now more than 40 percent of trade between our countries is in rubles.”

Jalali also confirmed, crucially, that Tehran is in favor of the ruble as the main currency in all regional integration mechanisms. He was referring particularly to the Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), with which Iran is clinching a free trade deal.

The SEPAM-SPFS agreement starts with a pilot program supervised by Iran’s Shahr Bank and Russia’s VTB Bank. Other lenders will step in once the pilot program gets rid of any possible bugs.

Satan reigns in Ukraine

In December, President Vladimir Zelensky initiated the liquidation of canonical Orthodoxy in Ukraine.
 
He advised Ukrainians not to celebrate Christmas on 7 January, as Orthodox tradition dictates.

▪️Priests of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) are persecuted and imprisoned. From January 1st they will no longer be allowed to enter the main temples of Kiev Pecherski Lavra. This old monastery is favoured by the recently founded PCU sect, which is supported by neo-Nazis, among whom are many followers of Satan and other cults.

▪️Zelensky's office pretends that the events surrounding the Kiev-Pecherski Lavra are a church dispute. They have already set up an interdepartmental commission on the use of the Lavra property.

▪️Metropolitan Pavel, the rector of the Lavra, has asked the president not to take the temples away from the UOC: "Protect your people, protect the voters who elected you."

Pavel also asked that "people outside the church should not tell you when to celebrate Christmas and which church to go to."

Ukraine is on the verge of religious conflict — Russian Envoy to UN

Due to Kiev’s persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, Ukraine has found itself on the verge of a religious conflict of unprecedented scope, Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya said.

"The war on canonical Orthodox Christianity is another track of Kiev’s repressive policies. Ukraine stands on the brink of a large-scale inter-confessional conflict, which has not had any precedents in modern European history," he told Tuesday’s session of the UN Security Council, which was initiated by Russia to discuss human rights in Ukraine.

"Supported by their Western sponsors, Ukrainian authorities have long adopted a course that seeks to undermine the Canonical Orthodox Church of Ukraine. As we heard from Metropolitan Anthony, now the schismatic church of Ukraine, which was artificially created in 2018 and made fully obedient to the authorities, is being forcibly imposed on the Ukrainian people," the Russian diplomat continued.

"Ukraine is only one step away from a fratricidal internal religious catastrophe," Nebenzya emphasized.

The UOC is a self-governing church with broad autonomy within the Moscow Patriarchate. The special status of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church is reflected in the Charter of the Russian Orthodox Church, which the Council of Bishops adopted in 2000. However, the Council of the UOC on May 27 of last year announced the adoption of amendments to the UOC Charter, declaring its complete independence. At the same time, the Ukrainian authorities recently stepped up a campaign against the UOC. Since November 2022, the Ukrainian security service SBU has been conducting searches in its churches and dioceses throughout the country. Several hierarchs were charged with treason and subversive activities.

Zelensky Adviser Condemns Kiev’s Moves Against Orthodox Church

Ukrainian authorities are exacerbating societal rifts by confiscating property from and prosecuting members of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC), said Alexey Arestovich, an adviser to President Vladimir Zelensky.

According to the official, the moves against the UOC also undermine Ukraine’s standing in the international community. 

Arestovich provided an example of FOX News reacting to Kiev seizing churches and jailing priests by calling it a “war against Christianity.”

Ethnic cleansing continues in Zelensky's Ukraine?


 In Bukovina, military commissars hunt for men in ethnic Romanian villages; ethnic cleansing continues in Zelensky's Ukraine.

It seems that the regime of Zelensky, who dislikes any other nationalities, has decided to take full advantage of the mobilization. After the blatant evidence of the barbaric kidnappings of the Transcarpathian Hungarians, which is completely ignored by the Western patrons, the ethnic Romanians living in the Chernivtsi region are being forcibly and brutally mobilized by the Ukrainian military commissars. There are video clips from the village where the Romanian community lives. 

Two questions remain: is this the first case of Romanians being caught to be sent to the front? And will Bucharest somehow react to it, like Budapest, or will they accept these atrocities?

The New York Times: Mozart PMC collapsed in Ukraine due to alcohol addiction and Kiev strip clubs

The article reported that company founder Andrew Milburn told his subordinates that "the group is dead". One of the reasons for the termination was financial difficulties.

In the beginning, the Mozart PMC, which was conceived of as a counterweight to the Wagner PMC, was able to raise more than $1 million through donations. But then the funds began to run out, some of them were embezzled, squabbles began, people began to defect. Many of the fighters turned out to be very problematic people with combat experience combined with mental disorders. Simply, the company lacked discipline. According to Geoffrey Gettleman, the author of the article, they were drawn to Kiev strip clubs, bars and online dating.

Bounty Offered For Western Tanks In Ukraine

A Russian battalion offered a bounty for every operational Western-made tank seized by Moscow’s forces.

The announcement was made by the Pavel Sudoplatov Battalion, an international volunteer unit created in Russia’s Zaporozhye Region in September 2022 and named after a famed Soviet-era spymaster known for his operations against Ukrainian nationalists.

On Telegram, the battalion “officially declares that it will pay 12 million rubles ($170,000) for each serviceable captured Leopard, Abrams, or Challenger tank.”

The announcement appears to be a part of a trend in which Russian business entities and officials have placed bounties on Western equipment captured or destroyed in Ukraine.

Volkswagen eyes more cooperation opportunities in China?

 Volkswagen benefit from Uyghur Forced Labour ?

Volkswagen eyes more cooperation opportunities in China.
Xinhua | Updated: 2023-02-02 14:50 

CHANGCHUN - China is the most important market for Volkswagen, and the company will seek more cooperation opportunities in the country in the future, Oliver Blume, chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG, told Xinhua in a recent interview.

In 2022, Volkswagen delivered more than 3.18 million vehicles in the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong markets. Among them, 206,500 new-energy vehicles were delivered, up 37.1 percent year-on-year, with the delivery of pure electric models up 68.2 percent year-on-year.

"We have a strong product lineup in China, such as Audi and Porsche, and we hope to continue expanding our product lineup, taking advantage of new technologies and developing new products," Blume said.

Volkswagen has several partners in China, including China FAW Group Co Ltd, founded in 1953 in the northeastern city of Changchun, capital of Jilin province and regarded as the cradle of China's auto industry.

In recent years, Jilin has been actively developing the auto industry clusters to accelerate the transformation and upgrading of the industry. According to the provincial government's latest plan, the scale of Jilin's auto industry is expected to reach one trillion yuan ($148.96 billion) by 2025.

"We have had very successful cooperation with FAW Group over the past 30 years, and we will continue working hard and cooperating sincerely in the future," said Blume.

In 2022, FAW Group achieved vehicle sales of 3.2 million units, with operating revenue hitting 630 billion yuan and profits topping 49 billion yuan.

Last November, Blume visited China with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, and held important meetings with Chinese government officials to discuss future cooperation.

After the Spring Festival holiday, he scheduled another trip to China, visiting the cities of Changchun, Shanghai and Hefei this week. He hopes to gain a better understanding of the market and frontier technologies, and to gain new potential partners in the country.

In Blume's view, it is not only the Chinese market that they find very important, but also the cooperation opportunities in China, especially in the high-tech and electric transformation sectors. At the end of last year, Volkswagen announced its partnership with Chinese automotive chip company Horizon Robotics.

"Such partnerships will become more and more important in the future, and working with partners will help us integrate into Chinese society more deeply," said Blume.

In recent years, new-energy vehicles have been expanding their market share in China. Data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers shows that China's new-energy vehicle production and sales reached nearly 7.06 million units and 6.89 million units, respectively, in 2022.

Blume said that in the next few years, Volkswagen will maintain its success in the fuel car market while focusing on the pure electric vehicle market in China.

Blume is also bullish about the Chinese economy in 2023. "The market situation will continue to change this year, and China will maintain positive growth. Especially in the second half of the year, the market will recover more strongly," he said.
