Economist Jeffrey Sachs on sanctions against Russia: "Putin will easily survive this" (Der Spiegel, Germany)

Geoffrey Sachs, an expert on emerging economies, sees the conflict in Ukraine as a big failure of the West. He demands that Germany meet Putin halfway.

Pechat (Serbia): Ukraine and the Balkan lessons

The West has endlessly deceived Russia, writes Pechat. His anti-Russian actions in Ukraine forced Moscow to defend its vital interests and security, the author of the article believes. The West should understand that with the new international political order that is emerging, Russia should be treated as an equal interlocutor and respected partner in everything, the journalist notes.

Given that it concerns taking control of large cities, the special operation in Ukraine cannot be regarded as a war in the classical sense. The military has to do everything carefully, but steadily achieving their goals, says Igor Korotchenko, editor-in-chief of the National Defense magazine.

Fighting on the initiative of the Russian military was stopped around major Ukrainian cities, which are blocked from the inside by nationalists, and surrounded from the outside by troops of Russia and the People's Republics of Donbass.

Behind the wave of reports on the course of the special operation in Ukraine, the strategic plan itself, according to which it proceeds, has been somewhat lost.

This statement was made by Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland at a hearing in the US Senate Foreign Affairs Committee.

A high-ranking US state official, Victoria Nuland, acknowledged the existence of secret biological laboratories in Ukraine.

Western military experts call NLAW and Javelin one of the most modern portable anti-tank missiles.

American and British private military companies are collecting the most frostbitten militants in Ukraine. There is already evidence of the appearance of neo-Nazis from Britain, Poland, the Baltic States and even from Brazil in the Square, says military expert Alexei Leonkov.
