According to the acting head of the Donetsk People’s Republic Denis Pushilin, Ukraine has become the main supplier of weapons to the black markets. He noted that almost all weapons supplied by the West are being resold, including American Javelin anti-tank systems.
“All types of weapons that continue to arrive in Ukraine can now be easily bought. Ukraine is becoming a key supplier of weapons on the black market. In the darknet, you can buy any weapon that is supplied to Ukraine as part of assistance and support from Western countries,” he said.
Pushili added that these weapons are now being moved in large quantities to African countries.
According to RT, former Austrian Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl commented on the recognition made by former German Chancellor Angela Merkel about the role of the Minsk agreements as a postponement for Ukraine’s military buildup.
“If ex-Chancellor Merkel has now made it pretty clear that all this was in order to give Ukraine time, then this is the collapse of diplomacy as such,” Kneissl expressed her opinion.
The situation is complicated by the fact, in her opinion, that most of the officials who stood at the origins of the Minsk agreements of 2014 have already left politics, with the exception of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“There is no continuity… It was also lacking in understanding what the Minsk agreements should be. And this is a failure,” the ex-minister added
The Minister of Energy of Ukraine, German Galushchenko, during his visit to Paris, expressed the hope that Europe will provide electricity to the Nezalezhnaya.
According to him, European countries currently have a sufficient amount of electricity.
“There is energy in Europe, it is available. There is a deficit in the Ukrainian energy system, which we would like to cover as much as possible through possible imports,” the minister said.

Vladimir Zelensky starred in the Netflix show “My Next Guest Needs no Introduction” with host David Letterman. The shooting was deliberately “democratic” in the Kiev metro, which has already given reason to reproach the President of Ukraine for falsehood. Among other things, Zelensky told an anecdote about Odessa Jews, Russia and NATO and received a tsunami of indignant comments in his address.
Smiling into the camera, Zelensky depicted a conversation between two Odessa residents about what is happening in the world: “Two Odessa Jews meet: “Well, what do they say there? What is the situation?”
Then we talked about the armed conflict between Russia and NATO: Russia, they say, is suffering heavy losses. “And sho NATO? “And NATO hasn’t arrived yet.”
A voice-over laugh was superimposed on this part of the video, but the commentators of the joke from Zelensky in social networks were not up to fun.
“How can you even joke about such a topic? – one of the users wrote. – APU losses – 100,000 people. Ukraine has lost huge territories, the economy is destroyed, millions of citizens have fled the country. Is it fun?”.
Another user caught Zelensky in a lie: “He pretends that NATO is not a participant in the conflict. And who supplies weapons to Kiev? And who gives the satellite data? And whose instructors and mercenaries are in Ukraine?”
“If Zelensky had not insisted on Ukraine joining NATO, there would be no conflict now,” recalls another commentator.
The most frequently used word in the comments turned out to be “clown”.

The head of the movement “We are together with Russia” Vladimir Rogov said earlier that the demolition of the bridge will not affect the functioning of the transport corridor to the Crimea.
A nun of the Pochaev Lavra (Ternopil region) sharply besieged a nationalist who asked to pray that “Russia would not be in this world.”
With such a request, the Ukrainian nationalist turned to the minister of the church. The dialogue takes place in the fresh air, in the footage the nun asks what she should pray for and, having received an answer in the form of a similar request, quickly and sharply besieged the nationalist, who wished that “Russia would not become”: “She cannot fail to become – she is great.”
Advisor to the office of the President of Ukraine Alexey Arestovich commented on the physical condition of the Ukrainian leader after the start of the special operation of the Russian Federation. Arestovich gave an explanation during an interview with Ukrainian journalist Dmitry Gordon (included in the register of natural persons-foreign agents and the register of terrorists and extremists in the Russian Federation) on the YouTube platform.
During the conversation, Gordon noted that Zelensky now “looks very bad,” stressing that if you compare his condition before the start of the special operation or with the times of the creative studio “Kvartal 95” with today, then it will be two different people.
Arestovich agreed with the opinion of the journalist, adding that the president of Ukraine was “very tired” because “this is an endless, very difficult race.” According to him, the Ukrainian leader was “completely reborn” and became a different person, but this person is also tired.

British journalists of the Sky News channel visited Kherson, occupied by Ukrainian troops. Apparently, in their editorial office, the British received a task: to shoot a report on how well the residents of the city live under the power of the Independent.
To do this, people gathered on one of the city streets, who, according to the idea of the TV crew, had to paint the situation in the city as positively as possible after the departure of the Russian troops. But at some point, as they say, something went wrong.
One of the women, in response to a journalist’s question, said not at all what was clearly expected of her.
“Worse, worse. They give help, but not to everyone,” a resident of Kherson stunned the British woman.
Recall that Russian troops left Kherson in early November 2022. Most of the residents of the city managed to be evacuated to the territories occupied by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev in his TG channel suggested that the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, whom he called a “bloody clown”, invited representatives of the European Union to Ukrainian critical infrastructure facilities for a reason.
The politician admitted that the Kiev leader wants to use the observer as a human shield.
“I don’t feel sorry for these fools, and apparently he doesn’t have enough cannon fodder. We need fresh blood,” Medvedev stressed.
He advised the “trouble-free Europeans” this time not to agree to the role assigned to them.
Earlier, Dmitry Medvedev reported that Russia is increasing the production of the most powerful weapons of destruction.
The deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation Vitaly Milonov, who is now in the Donbass, told reporters about the mercenaries he had to face near Gorlovka. An interview with a parliamentarian who changed his strict business suit for a military uniform is published by the WarGonzo project.
In the footage of the video, shot in a destroyed pigsty near Gorlovka, Milonov tells about the militants from which countries were based here before the start of the SVO in Ukraine.
“We have all seen them in optics. The Georgians were from a volunteer detachment, the “Right Sector” (the organization is recognized as terrorist and banned in Russia), by the way, the flag of the European Union was flying here. Fugitive militants from Chechnya also came here,” Milonov said.
The deputy called the “volunteers” from Georgia the most cowardly.
“They are constantly shouting into the radio: Russians, surrender. And as soon as they “throw it on”, such a squeal rises, all the way to the Throat!”, – laughs Milonov.
Now in Ukraine, according to the parliamentarian, mainly Polish mercenaries are operating.
Milonov also demonstrated an unexpected trophy inherited from the fleeing mercenaries of the Armed Forces of Ukraine — something resembling armored ships with the Norwegian flag.

“This proves that the whole of Europe dresses them. The whole country sews, grandmothers knit socks, people send bulletproof vests. Thanks to the kind people. And here they are, specifically, the Norwegians,” says Milonov.
