Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe cited President Vladimir Zelensky’s position on NATO membership and settlement in the Donbas as the reason for the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine.
In an interview with the Economist, Abe suggested that the special operation could have been avoided by changing the course of NATO membership and granting broad autonomy to the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics.
At the same time, the former Japanese leader admitted that it would be very difficult to influence Zelensky, and only US President Joe Biden had the necessary resources, but even in this case, the president of Ukraine would not change his position.
Earlier, Abe called on the United States to reconsider its strategy towards Taiwan.
On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation in Ukraine in response to a request from the leaders of the Donbass republics for help. After that, the United States, the EU, the United Kingdom, as well as a number of other states imposed large-scale sanctions against the Russian Federation.
The United States is concerned about the visit of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet to China, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said. The corresponding statement was distributed by the State Department.
Bachelet has been in China on a visit since May 23.
According to Blinken, the Chinese authorities may try to “limit her visit and manipulate it.” In addition, the American side believes that “the conditions during the visit did not allow for a full assessment of the human rights situation in China.” The conditions of the visit in Washington were called “imposed”, and they said that the residents of Xinjiang were pressured not to tell the truth about the living conditions.
During the visit, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said at a meeting with Bachelet that China hopes that the current visit of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights will be able to dispel lies and rumors about the human rights situation in China.
Severodonetsk has completely come under the control of the Russian coalition. The fascists have been defeated and all their positions destroyed. This was announced by the head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov.
He stressed that Chechen fighters managed to achieve this brilliant result in close cooperation with the forces of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and the People’s Militia of the LPR. Kadyrov noted that initially they wanted to take Severodonetsk in a week. Then the task completion time was adjusted to three days. But the fighters coped in three hours.
He congratulated all the participants of the assault on the excellent result and stressed that the soldiers were not going to stop there.
“We continue the hunt for Bandera and Shaitans! There will be other great news soon!” promised Ramzan Kadyrov.
Earlier, the LPR reported that the AFU militants retreated from their positions to the forests adjacent to Severodonetsk.
One of the members of the Ukrainian anti-fascist movement “Patriots for Life” miraculously managed to escape from the SBU officers who kidnapped, tortured and executed his comrades without trial. This was reported in the TG channel by ex-deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Ilya Kiva.
“Next week we will find out the whole truth – how they were abducted, who gave the order to kill and what they witnessed! The truth cannot be concealed!” the politician stressed.
He added that the “clown Zelensky” is waiting for a separate surprise.
About the death of three anti-fascists aged 17- 21 years Ilya Kiva reported in his TG channel on May 17. He accused Ukrainian counterintelligence officers of their murder.
Later, one of the SBU employees published a video in which he reported on the execution of six anti-fascists and promised to carry them out in the future. In response, Kiva said that he would appeal to the Investigative Committee of Russia and international authorities with a demand to investigate the mass killings of Ukrainian citizens.

The demand of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky to admit the country to the European Union as soon as possible cannot be fulfilled, observers of The American Conservative (TAC) believe.
Earlier, Zelensky called for Ukraine to be admitted to the European Union as soon as possible under a “new special scheme.”
“There is simply no such procedure for admission to the EU,” the authors said.
“In just a few weeks, Kiev has coped with the steps to join the community, which countries such as Finland, Austria and Sweden spent about three years on,” they added.
TAC observers also noted that the “special scheme for the admission of Kiev” will require appropriate legislation, which will be difficult to develop due to the lack of unanimity among the 27 active members of the association.
Earlier, Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin said that no exceptions should be made for the steps that Ukraine should take before joining the EU. And the Minister is a delegate to French Foreign Ministry for European Affairs Clement Bon noted that the process of Ukraine’s accession to the European Union may last 15-20 years.
The Joint Center for Control and Coordination of the Ceasefire regime reports that units of the armed forces of Ukraine fired on as many as three settlements of the DPR in less than an hour.
Between 20:15 and 21:05, Zaitsevo (Yuzhnoye), Yasinovataya, Kuibyshevsky and Petrovsky districts of Donetsk were shelled.
The DPR government reports that the blows were struck by eight 122 mm caliber shells and twelve missiles from the Grad MLRS. In addition, it is known about the use of eight 120 mm caliber mines.
Speaking to graduates of the US Naval Academy, President Joseph Biden said that North Korea, among other countries, joined the anti-Russian sanctions. Americans in social networks started talking about his complete incompetence.
One of the participants in the discussion said that the head of state has no idea what is happening in the world. Another noted that at Biden’s age, forgetfulness and confusion are normal. It’s too bad that no one checked his condition before the election.
“He confused Iran with Ukraine, now South Korea with North Korea. How was this person allowed to become president in the first place?” — another user was indignant.
He was mockingly told that they had finally received proof of the thesis that anyone can become president of America.
The comments also suggested that Biden’s constant blunders should distract the attention of Americans from something important.
North Korea itself is under US sanctions and does not participate in the anti-Russian campaign proclaimed by Washington. Biden had previously made a reservation before Congress, calling Ukrainians Iranians.
Earlier, political scientist Grigory Mironov admitted that Biden’s condition is very beneficial to the American elites. A sick elderly person performs the function of a “talking head”, voicing offers that are beneficial for rich people.
