. Former NATO military analyst obliterates Western actions in Ukraine war
https://scheerpost.com/2022/04/09/fo...ion-narrative/
So the West supports and continues to arm militias that have been guilty of numerous crimes against civilian populations since 2014 : rape, torture and massacres. But while the Swiss government has been very quick to impose sanctions against Russia, it has not adopted any against Ukraine, which has been slaughtering its own population since 2014. In fact, those who defend the rights of the men in Ukraine have long condemned the actions of these groups, but have not been followed by our governments. Because, in reality, we are not trying to help Ukraine, but to fight Russia.
Former head of the Warsaw Pact forces in the Swiss strategic intelligence service, I observe with sadness – but not astonishment – that our services are no longer in a position to understand the military situation in Ukraine. The self-proclaimed “experts” who parade across our screens tirelessly relay the same information modulated by the assertion that Russia – and Vladimir Putin – is irrational. Let’s take a step back.
In fact, as early as February 16, Joe Biden knows that the Ukrainians began to s the civilian populations of Donbass, putting Vladimir Putin in front of a difficult choice: to help Donbass militarily and create an international problem or to sit idle and watch Russian speakers. from the Donbass being run over.
From an operational point of view, the Russian offensive was an example of its kind: in six days, the Russians seized a territory as vast as the United Kingdom, with a speed of advance greater than what the Wehrmacht made in 1940.
On Facebook, the Azov group was considered in the same category as the Islamic State and subject to the platform’s ” dangerous individuals and organizations policy ” . It was therefore forbidden to glorify him, and the “posts” that were favorable to him were systematically banned. But on February 24, Facebook changed its policy and allowed posts favorable to the militia. In the same spirit, in March, the platform authorizes, in the former Eastern European countries, calls for the murder of Russian soldiers and leaders . So much for the values that inspire our leaders, as we will see.
By arming citizens in a haphazard fashion as is currently the case, the EU turns them into combatants, with the attendant consequences: potential targets. Moreover, without command, without operational goals, the distribution of arms inevitably leads to settling of scores, banditry and actions that are more deadly than effective. War becomes a matter of emotions. Force becomes violence. This is what happened in Tawarga (Libya) from August 11 to 13, 2011, where 30,000 black Africans were massacred with weapons parachuted (illegally) by France. Moreover, the British Royal Ins ute for Strategic Studies(RUSI) sees no added value in these arms deliveries.
Moreover, by delivering arms to a country at war, one exposes oneself to being considered as a belligerent. The Russian strikes on March 13, 2022, against the Mykolaiv air base follow Russian warnings that weapons transports would be treated as hostile targets.
The EU repeats the disastrous experience of the Third Reich in the last hours of the Battle of Berlin. War should be left to the military and when one side has lost, it should be admitted. And if there is to be resistance, it must imperatively be led and structured. However, we are doing exactly the opposite: we are pushing citizens to go and fight and at the same time, Facebook is allowing calls for the murder of Russian soldiers and leaders . So much for the values that inspire us.

Russia threatens legal action if forced into sovereign debt default
April 11 (Reuters) - Russia will take legal action if the West tries to force it to default on its sovereign debt, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov told the pro-Kremlin Izvestia newspaper on Monday, sharpening Moscow's tone in its financial wrestle with the West.
Russia faces its first external sovereign default in more than a century after it made arrangements to make an international bond repayment in roubles last week, even though the payment was due in U.S. dollars. read more
It had been due on April 4 to make a payment of $649 million to holders of two of its sovereign bonds, but the U.S. Treasury blocked the transfer, preventing Russia from using any of its frozen foreign currency reserves to service its debt.
"Of course we will sue, because we have taken all the necessary steps to ensure that investors receive their payments," Siluanov told the newspaper in an interview.
"We will present in court our bills confirming our efforts to pay both in foreign currency and in roubles. It will not be an easy process. We will have to very actively prove our case, despite all the difficulties."
Siluanov did not elaborate on Russia's legal options and did not say where any court hearing could happen.

Russian Railways Ruled in Default Over Missed Bond Payment
CDS panel said Monday a failure-to-pay credit event occurred
Russian companies miss deadlines amid payment complications
Russian Railways JSC has been ruled in default by a derivatives panel after missing a bond interest payment, the first such decision since Russia was slapped with extensive sanctions that complicated financial transactions.
A failure-to-pay credit event occurred after a coupon due on March 14 failed to reach investors by the end of a 10-day grace period, according to the Credit Derivatives Determinations Committee.
The decision could set a precedent for the Russian government and local companies which have found themselves in a similar position. Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Western banks and other financial intermediaries have been blocking bond payments as they pored over legal implications of the sanctions, effectively shutting Russian borrowers out of the global financial system.
State-owned Russian Railways attempted to pay the bond coupon last month, but it failed to reach holders due to “legal and regulatory compliance obligations within the correspondent banking network.”
Contracts insuring the company’s debt against default will be triggered by the committee’s decision, and holders will now wait to see how much will be paid. The ruling doesn’t have a direct impact on bond investors, which so far haven’t requested an immediate repayment of their holdings.

Exactly. Biden and his State Dept., have the con on this. So easy when the threat of ending up back out at Dover does not exist. Having the time of their lives right now.

Laughing teen Russian racer appears to give Nazi salute from go-karting podium
A teenage Russian go-karter is being investigated for seemingly throwing a Nazi salute after winning a European Championship race.
Artem Severiukhin, 15, was filmed banging his chest twice while on the podium in Portugal on Sunday — then extending his right arm in what appeared to be a clear Sieg Heil salute.
The grinning, blond teen then broke into full-bodied laughter.
Motorsports’ governing body, the International Automobile Federation, said Monday it had launched “an immediate investigation” into the Russian’s “unacceptable conduct.”
The teen — who was racing under the Italian flag because of sanctions imposed on Russia following the invasion of Ukraine — was also dropped by his team, Ward Racing.
The privately owned Swedish team said it was “deeply in shame” of his behavior, which it “condemns in the strongest possible terms.”
“Ward Racing sees no possibility for continued cooperation with Artem Severyukhin and will proceed with terminating his racing contract,” the company said, while also apologizing “to those who were hurt or distressed by the occurrence.”
