Ukraine's Brilliant Plan for Russia's Surrender
July 1, 2023 Editor Editor 0
It has been noted that for several days Ukraine and NATO have regularly declared that if Russia blows up the nuclear power plant in Zaporozhe, this will lead to a NATO response with nuclear weapons against Russia.
According to enemy sources, a plan has therefore been developed between NATO and Ukraine aimed at making Russia capitulate in the coming weeks.
The first step is to blow up the Zaporozhe power plant (with unspecified means). The NATO propaganda that all the European media swallows and rebroadcasts without problem will blame Russia.
The second stage will be that “in the face of this despicable act etc etc” Ukraine will be admitted as a “temporary member” of NATO, during the NATO summit on July 11 and 12.
The third step will be that NATO will therefore declare that one of its members (Ukraine) has been attacked and that Article 5 of the NATO statutes applies.
The fourth step will be an ultimatum from NATO to Russia: Immediate withdrawal of Russian troops from Donbass, failing which nuclear strikes will be carried out. The question of Crimea should not be raised for the moment but the “return” of Crimea to Ukraine will be ordered without problem by the next Russian government. NATO strategists are still convinced that Vladimir Putin is “diminished” after Wagner's coup attempt, that he no longer has the support of the Russian elites, and that he will therefore accept NATO's conditions. According to this brilliant plan, Ukraine will therefore have won on 2 counts: The defeat of Russia and its accession to NATO.
This brilliant plan will, if carried out, be NATO's last plan: The Russian response will most likely be the alerting of its strategic nuclear forces and tactical nuclear strikes of NATO bases in Europe, all the bridges over the Dnieper and several transport axes aimed at protecting Russia from invading NATO troops.
I let you imagine the rest.

Perlou posted twice the french version, in english from Deepl, interesting take on Wagner's move :
"
While the idiotic, mendacious, public-money-guzzling media were telling you that there was a coup d'état in Russia, the Wagner group moved to Belarus (I told you all about it back on Saturday).
Why has Wagner been transferred to Belarus?
According to a Ukrainian channel with sources in Zelensky's administration, British MI6 agents have told the President's office and the Ukrainian Defense Staff that Wagner's move to Belarus is a decision to thwart plans by Ukraine, Poland and Lithuania to place a military contingent on Ukraine's western borders. British intelligence is said to be confident that a new 30-40,000-strong military unit will be formed in Belarus, whose main task will be a new campaign against Kiev at a time when the Ukrainian armed forces on the southern front are finding themselves in trouble. The assets of this unit have already been transferred to Belarus between 2022 and 2023."
Sure he did and wasn't hiding it. It's in Russian Wiki, even the French Wiki mentioned it. I linked somewhere in this thread to his two docudrama productions: recent "The Best in Hell" (Wagner and SVO) and a year earlier was "Solntsepyok" (Blazing Sun) about Donbas.
I liked checking his RIAFAN outlet, their coverage of hostilities in Syria and Donbass was great. BTW, the first editor in chief came from Ria Novosti.

It also indicates that Zelensky and the controlling Ukrainian Oligarchs are losing their initiated War on all fronts, IMHO.
Obviously, the repetitive use of the inflaming word children is part of the psyops of the past, as is the case in the Syrian battle against the Zionist news.
As the sessions said, Television and Cell phones promote the general population's minds too mush.

Ukraine's missing children: The search for babies taken by Russia
Moscow is accused of abducting tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. NBC News investigates what happened to babies taken from one orphanage in Kherson.
www.nbcnews.com
The scenes are part of a 2-minute video Kastyukevich posted on the Telegram messaging app showing Russian officials and their local allies removing young children from the Regional Children’s Home in Kherson in late October, weeks before it was liberated by Ukrainian forces. Dozens of children were taken to “safety,” he said.
According to Kyiv, the video is evidence in a growing case against the Kremlin for its alleged war crimes in Ukraine. The country accuses Moscow of abducting tens of thousands of its children and shipping them to Russia with the intent of stripping them of their national identity, a crime that Ukrainian officials call a form of genocide. Russia denies allegations of war crimes, and says it has evacuated close to 2 million civilians, including hundreds of thousands of children, from what it said were dangerous areas of Ukraine.
In a caption to the video, Kastyukevich said the children were “evacuated” and moved to the nearby Crimean Peninsula, occupied by Russia since 2014. Around the same time, Russia was trying to evacuate thousands of residents from Kherson in the face of a looming Ukrainian offensive.
“We have saved them,” Kastyukevich wrote.
Ukrainian officials in Kherson immediately called it a “kidnapping.”
Very little is known about what happened to the children, but senior Russian officials told NBC News that they are still in Crimea. They say no one has come looking for them.
Ukrainians dispute this, saying they are working to bring the 48 children home, but fear they could disappear into Russia.
On Friday, Ukraine formally charged Kastyukevich, who shared the video of the children’s evacuation, as well as an ex-worker at the orphanage and an official in the region, accusing them of the illegal transfer and deportation of the children from the facility.
NBC News has contacted Kastyukevich about the charges but did not receive a reply.
The young children from the Kherson Regional Children’s Home are not the only children who have disappeared.
Ukraine says it has documented nearly 20,000 cases of deported or forcibly transferred children. But that number could be as high as 300,000, according to the Ukrainian president’s adviser on child rights, Daria Herasymchuk.
In an unprecedented move against the leader of a permanent United Nations Security Council member state, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Putin and his children’s representative, Maria Lvova-Belova, in March. Prosecutors at the Hague-based war-crimes court accused them of “unlawful deportation and transfer of Ukrainian children” from occupied areas of Ukraine to Russia, including “the deportation of at least hundreds of children taken from orphanages and children’s care homes.”
Moscow has dismissed accusations that it illegally deports Ukrainian children, and Russian officials have touted cases where they say they rescued children from active fighting. Last month, Putin said that his forces have legally moved “entire orphanages,” saving children’s lives, and that Moscow has never been against reuniting Ukrainian children with their families.
Lvova-Belova, who has said in multiple Telegram posts that she is now the foster parent of a child from Mariupol, a city devastated by Russia’s war, has borne the brunt of international scrutiny. In many ways, she has become the face of a new type of alleged war crime.
Her social media feeds are full of videos of Russian foster families greeting Ukrainian orphans, whom she has personally delivered across the country, with balloons and toys.
Lvova-Belova says she visited the children from the Kherson Regional Children’s Home in a home in Crimea shortly after they were removed from Ukraine, and promised to find their relatives.
She did not respond to a request to visit the children in Crimea but did tell NBC News that her office was actively looking for their relatives in Ukraine. The children would not be put in foster care or up for adoption until that search had been exhausted, she says.
Ukrainian officials looking into the case disputed her claim that no one is looking for the missing children.
Mykola Kuleba, CEO of Save Ukraine, a leading nongovernmental organization that helps deported Ukrainian children return home, said the organization had identified the children taken from the Kherson orphanage and is looking into the case.
The challenge with a case involving such young children is that they become difficult to trace after being moved into territory occupied by Russia or into Russia itself. Kuleba said the time window to bring them back to Ukraine was shrinking every day because many won’t even know their own names.
“It will be very hard to return them,” he said.
After the ICC issued arrest warrants for Putin and Lvova-Belova — in part to prevent “further commission of crimes” — Kuleba said reuniting children with families had become even more challenging.
“We found that it's harder and harder to return any child,” he said.
Lyudmyla Afanasieva is a former staff member of the Kherson orphanage and cared for the children while they were in the basement of a church whose pastor had sheltered them during heavy fighting.
The young children, whom Afanasieva said she recognized from the video shared by Kastyukevich, had been “stolen.”
“These are our children,” she said in a telephone interview.
Except for two orphanage staffers, the adults who took them to Crimea were strangers to the children, Afanasieva said.
At least three senior Ukrainian officials told NBC News they were actively working on the case: the country’s chief prosecutor, its children’s representative and the human rights ombudsman. They declined to disclose detailed information about the children's whereabouts or the status of their investigations, saying that doing so would jeopardize their work.
“They moved them farther, most likely. So we are still looking for them,” said Daria Herasymchuk, Ukraine's Commissioner for Children's Rights. “But we know exactly who we are looking for. We know the names of these children.”
Like Kuleba, she fears that returning the children will be a challenge.
“If we are speaking about little ones who, in a year, can forget about where they are from, what their names are … it will be very difficult to return these children, but we will fight for every one of them,” Herasymchuk said.
In May, nearly 15 months after Russia’s invasion, Lvova-Belova said that Kyiv had for the first time sent concrete information on 11 children whose parents were looking for them, without providing their locations or further details.
Dmytro Lubinets, Ukraine’s human rights chief, disputed this.
“Thousands of names” had been forwarded to his counterpart in Moscow, Tatyana Moskalkova, who works closely with Lvova-Belova, he said, although he did not provide any documents or other evidence.
At least 373 children have been returned to Ukraine without Russian help, Lubinets said. He declined to provide more information on how they were returned, saying that doing so would compromise future operations.
Ukrainian officials allege that abducted children are being put up for adoption by Russian families. Moscow denies that but acknowledges that 380 Ukrainian orphans have been placed with foster families in Russia. Lvova-Belova insists that they have not been formally adopted and that they will be reunited with their families in Ukraine if the families look for them.
In fact, she says, all that families or legal guardians have to do is write an email to her office to start a search. Her claim runs counter to statements from Ukrainian officials and families, who say they have to devise a new rescue mission for every child.
The Russians are doing “everything” to block their efforts to get the children back, Lubinets said.
Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Andriy Kostin, whose office is investigating some 90,000 cases of alleged war crimes, said the deportation of children is a special case.
The Russians are intentionally keeping Ukrainian children as “hostages,” refusing to return them and stripping them of their identities, Kostin told NBC News in an interview.
“This is the type of crime which is so far from the war,” he said. “It's not about the war itself. It's about the intention to steal children from the Ukrainian nation.”

That is an interesting statement he made.
All one can say, trauma of it all aside for the children and nbcn's spin, is thank God these children were rescued by the Russians, cause who knows what evil would have been done to them as the situation unfolds.Ukraine's missing children: The search for babies taken by Russia

An unusual goal. This is not reported every day.

It's unbelievable how the programming of the people in Germany worked. We had a concert in the garden of our house yesterday with a three-piece ensemble (Here's one of the songs from one of their other performances). They played mostly Eastern European, Roma and Klezmer music. And among other things, Russian songs. It was beautiful because in this kind of music you can feel the feelings of the people who made it. I had goose bumps all over.
During one of the Russian songs, my seat neighbour made a comment: "Beautiful, isn't it? But are we even allowed to listen to that at the moment?"... I was speechless... and glad she didn't say that to me. And I think there are unfortunately, unfortunately very many people who now reject everything that is Russian. It's so sad to see that people don't think for themselves anymore. And I thought the bizarre thing was that she actually liked it. Please excuse me if it's just noise, but I had to write it down somewhere.

Yevgeny Prigozhin will keep a low profile in Belarus - but Wagner boss is a dangerous animal for President Lukashenko
Under normal circumstances one might have expected Prigozhin's prospects to be limited, but Putin will not want to risk turning him into a martyr.
news.sky.com
Sean Bell Military analyst Saturday 1 July 2023 23:20, Uk Diagrams Satellite Data
Following Yevgeny Prigozhin's abortive "march for justice" towards the Russian capital last weekend, President Lukashenko of Belarus intervened and apparently offered the Wagner boss safe sanctuary in exile.
Vladimir Putin was evidently furious that his old protégé could turn against him and is unlikely to forgive or forget Prigozhin's apparent attempted coup.
Under normal circumstances one might have expected Prigozhin's prospects to be limited, but Mr Putin will not want to risk turning him into a martyr, so while the dust settles on last weekend's events, Mr Lukashenko has provided an invaluable short-term solution.
However, Prigozhin is potentially a very dangerous animal, so Mr Lukashenko will want to proceed with caution.
Although the offer of exile in Belarus might have strengthened Lukashenko's hand with Putin, Prigozhin's presence in his country presents a significant long-term risk if accompanied by a significant number of battle-hardened Wagner fighters.
This has led to a raft of conspiracy theories as to Prigozhin's actual role in Belarus.
In context, notwithstanding Prigozhin's apparent betrayal, Mr Putin still needs mercenary fighters; they have proved vital to Russian battlefield success.
However, he will want to "weed out" those fighters loyal to Prigozhin and bring the remainder under closer control of the Russian ministry of defence to minimise the threat of a further coup.
Offering fighters the opportunity to join Prigozhin in Belarus is a relatively simple way to identify those loyal to the mercenary leader, easing the process of purging Prigozhin loyalists.
'Relatively low-key'
Satellite imagery of extensive tented camps being erected suggest that several thousand Wagner fighters might relocate to Belarus.
Although Prigozhin is probably grateful for the opportunity afforded him by Lukashenko, he must also be aware that Putin has broader ambitions to subjugate Belarus and there is potential that Prigozhin could prove a useful asset for Putin when required - perhaps as a way back into the Moscow fold.
However, mindful that most Belarusians want nothing to do with the war in Ukraine, and are likely to be increasingly suspicious of Lukashenko's developing partnership with Putin, Prigozhin's activities in Belarus are likely to be relatively low-key, at least in the short term.
It is possible that Putin, having expunged the direct threat posed by Prigozhin, will coerce him into mounting operations against the Ukrainian capital Kyiv from Belarus territory.
Kyiv is significantly closer to Belarus than Russia, which would provide a significant logistical advantage to the attacking force.
However, although Lukashenko is a puppet of the Putin regime, he also leads a democratic country and will be keen to avoid a repeat of the riots that threatened to unseat him after the last election.
If Lukashenko was to provide a launchpad for mercenary fighters to attack its neighbour this might be seen as an unprovoked escalation and drag Belarus into the war - something Lukashenko will be keen to avoid.
But, mindful that many of the Wagner fighters are battle-hardened veterans of the urban fight for Bakhmut, that might form a potent threat to Kyiv - indeed, reports suggest that Ukraine is already bolstering its defences against a potential threat from the north.

Key figures unaccounted for week after Russia mutiny
Putin has offered Wagner fighters three choices
The extraordinary events of last weekend have left more questions than answers, and we simply do not know exactly what will happen next.
But, the chess pieces have been moved around the board, creating new threats and opportunities, which will become more apparent over the coming days and weeks.
I live your experience every day when I meet two little old men in a small park when I walk Arturo, who also goes by the name of Putin, now. These two people are convinced that Putin is the worst human being on earth, that he should be killed. Propaganda works perfectly, but that's the way it's always been in war, because the first victim of war is the truth. I'm taking this with a sense of humor, with the two little old men who know that I'm pro-Putin and who laugh when Arturo answers to Putin's name. They don't know the truth and are parroting the system and there's nothing we can do about it. But that doesn't stop me laughing with them and learning from them. It's an exercise in accepting this reality and knowing a little more about how things work and a shell that you have to develop to survive this nonsense, this insult to the truth. Humor and laughter are there to help us, I use them as a weapon of protection.
