redefining "victory".....

Kiev is facing a shortage of foreign military assistance next year, as some donors are “struggling to secure funding and others balk at increasing financing,” Bloomberg reported on Friday, citing anonymous sources.

The Ukrainian military overwhelmingly depends on foreign aid for its hardware, with over 80% coming from abroad, according to Defense Minister Rustem Umerov. The bulk of the military assistance in 2025 will come under a $50 billion loan, which G7 nations want to make against the profits from frozen Russian assets, the Bloomberg report said.

The scheme, which Moscow has described as theft, is yet to be finalized and will not be enough to meet Ukraine’s needs, the outlet said. The $50 billion would be roughly equivalent to what the West provided in the first six months of 2024.

In key Western nations, circumstances are working against continued funding for Kiev, the outlet said. In the US, there is the possibility that Donald Trump will be reelected president – the former leader has accused America’s EU allies of not pulling their weight on Ukraine. Germany, France, and Italy are in political turmoil. The UK, one of the staunchest supporters of Kiev, is set to cut spending across the board.

Meanwhile, Russia plans to spend 6.2% of its GDP on defense in 2025, which amounts to around $142 billion. “Russia’s economy is on a war footing, while Ukraine’s allies are not,” Bloomberg said, citing one of its sources.

The warning comes as Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky is touring the US to promote his ‘victory plan’ against Russia. President Joe Biden, who met with Zelensky on Thursday, has authorized the release of $8 billion in Congress-approved aid, days before the end of the fiscal year would have made much of the funds no longer available to his office.

But the White House would neither endorse the ‘victory plan’ nor grant permission for Ukraine to strike targets deep inside Russia with Western-supplied weapons, which Zelensky has been demanding for months.

Reports in the Western media reflect skepticism regarding Zelensky’s plan and growing pressure on him to drop his maximalist goals and redefine what ‘victory’ in the conflict entails.

-------------------

Multiple occurrences of war crimes have been attributed to far-right regiments in Ukraine, including the use of cluster munitions and documented instances of torture.

Anti-Russian sentiment has deep roots in modern Western society, owing in part to the country’s military power and historical status as a foil to Western Europe.

In recent years this struggle has acutely played out in the country of Ukraine, which the United States has worked tirelessly to pull into the Western orbit. 2014’s Euromaidan coup installed a fiercely anti-Russian government in the Mariinskyi Palace, empowering Ukrainian nationalists with grievances against Moscow dating back to Nazism’s mid-20th century march across the continent.

The development led to significant hostility toward ethnic Russians in the country, especially in Ukraine’s eastern provinces. Atrocities such as the Odessa Trade Union House massacre demonstrated the physical threat posed to Russo-Ukrainians, while the banning of the Russian language in schools and places of business illustrated what observers claimed was a broad suppression of Russian culture.

In the United States, anti-Russian sentiment dating back to the Cold War has been rekindled by claims of Russian interference in US presidential politics – a narrative frequently not borne out by investigations into the matter. Widespread Russophobia has heightened the typically militaristic tenor of Western news reporting, causing coverage of the Ukraine conflict to fall even below the standards of typical war coverage in the United States according to Covert Action Magazine managing editor Jeremy Kuzmarov.

The analyst joined Sputnik’s Fault Lines program Wednesday to discuss the state of journalistic reporting on the ongoing conflict.

“I think that the media coverage has been absolutely abysmal,” claimed Kuzmarov, an author of several critical books on US foreign policy. “We've had a decade of Russophobia that we've discussed on the show that's really impacted people considerably. And there's been a total blackout.”

“As far as Israel-Palestine, it has gotten through because of the brutality of the Israelis,” he continued. “Some of it has been reported in mainstream media, the bombing of hospitals and things like that. But there's been a total blackout on the atrocities committed by the Ukrainian military, including the neo-Nazi Azov battalion*.”

“Especially liberal media has been particularly biased and Russophobic, like MSNBC and CNN, as well as alternative media like Democracy Now! that has a following among activists who are more in the peace movement – there's nothing on that network ever. They've never interviewed Eastern Ukrainians who've been victimized by the Ukrainian military or endured shelling of their cities.”

The US-based news outlet CNN was embarrassed in late 2022 when, during a piece celebrating Ukraine’s advance in the Kherson region, footage aired by the network appeared to show a man with a Ukrainian flag giving a Nazi salute to a crowd of revelers. The incident was one of many demonstrating the significant influence of neo-fascists in Ukraine’s military and society – a fact that Western media has increasingly taken great pains to ignore.

“Today, increasing reports of far-right violence, ultranationalism, and erosion of basic freedoms are giving the lie to the West’s initial [post-Maidan] euphoria,” The Nation reported in 2019. “There are neo-Nazi pogroms against the Roma, ... book bans, and state-sponsored glorification of Nazi collaborators… What Ukraine’s far right lacks in poll numbers, it makes up for with things Marine Le Pen could only dream of – paramilitary units and free rein on the streets.”

“Post-Maidan Ukraine is the world’s only nation to have a neo-Nazi formation in its armed forces,” the report noted. Multiple occurrences of war crimes have been attributed to far-right regiments in Ukraine, including the use of cluster munitions and documented instances of torture. One video from late 2022 showed the summary execution of several surrendering Russian soldiers, who were shot in the legs before being gunned down. Such cases have received little attention as media focuses on often dubious pro-Ukraine stories.

Western portrayals of the Ukraine conflict as a struggle for democracy and human rights are belied by the actual nature of the Ukrainian government, which has legitimized neo-Nazi gangs in the domestic as well as the military sphere. Five years ago Kiev announced the National Druzhina paramilitary group would serve as poll watchers in the country’s national elections. The group swears fealty to politician Andriy Biletsky, who once vowed Ukraine would “lead the White Races of the world in a final crusade…against the Semite-led Untermenschen [subhumans].”

“There's a deeply ingrained Russophobia that goes back to Cold War and Hollywood film and how they present the Russians as the enemy in a demonized way,” said Kuzmarov, who claimed that anti-Russian sentiment has prevented an honest discussion about the nature of Ukraine’s government. “That has seeped so deeply in our culture that Americans can't wake up and smell the coffee as to what's gone on here, the catastrophe, the Vietnam-type situation that they support in Ukraine.”

The analyst observed that the conflict has become deeply polarized in the United States, noting it is “becoming a popular issue for the Republican Party now. That may be one reason why the young lefties aren't coming strong against the Ukrainian war, because the main politicians speaking out against it are people on the right. People they hate [like] Marjorie Taylor Greene, Donald Trump, and Robert Kennedy, who defected into the Republican Party.”

Zelensky’s US visit a ‘Hollywood show’ – Moscow
Washington’s display of support for Kiev merely serves to prolong the conflict, Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov has said

 

Washington has continued to fan the flames of the Ukraine conflict by welcoming Vladimir Zelensky to the US, Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov has said. The Ukrainian leader is visiting the US this week as he seeks to gain support for his ‘victory plan’ over Russia.

While the details of Zelensky’s plan have not been made public, media reports suggest it consists of several points unrelated to finding a peaceful resolution, including seeking an invitation for Ukraine to join NATO and getting the green light to use long-range Western-provided missiles to target sites deep inside Russia.

In an apparent attempt to defend his plan, Zelensky told ABC News on Tuesday that it is aimed at “the strengthening of Ukraine” so that it can “push [Russian President Vladimir] Putin to stop the war.”

Following his meeting with Zelensky on Thursday, US President Joe Biden thanked the Ukrainian leader for presenting the plan and announced another $8 billion in military assistance to Kiev.

According to Russian envoy Antonov, Zelensky’s entire visit to the US has been staged as a “Hollywood show” with the sole aim of dragging out the conflict.

They try to keep quiet that the main outcome of such a demonstration of America’s ‘leadership’ is a further prolongation of the crisis. Under the applause of local politicians, the blood of soldiers and civilians will continue to flow… This, apparently, is the essence of Zelensky’s notorious ‘victory plan,’” the Russian diplomat stated. Antonov went on to accuse the US of being a party to the conflict “by providing assistance to Ukrainian Nazis”and “inciting them to criminal provocations,” such as Kiev’s incursion into Russia’s Kursk Region.

According to Antonov, Washington’s ultimate goal in dragging out the fighting is to defeat Russia by using Kiev as a proxy.

“They seek to distort the truth with statements that Russia does not want peace and has not tried to achieve it. However, it is Washington that needs hatred and clashes between fraternal peoples. For one purpose only – the strategic defeat of our country,” the diplomat claimed. Antonov urged officials in Washington “to come to their senses,” warning that “Russia will never back down” when it comes to its national interests.

Bloomberg previously reported that Western officials are unimpressed with Zelensky’s ‘victory plan,’ with one source describing it as nothing more than a “wish list.”

Moscow has repeatedly said it is eager to end the conflict through diplomacy, but reiterated earlier this week that the only way this can be done is by Russia achieving all the goals of its military operation.

retreat....

According to the group, the Ukrainian units in Ugledar became “exhausted” by Russian attacks on their flanks. “There was a threat of the encirclement of the town,” it said.

Earlier in the day, a security source told TASS news agency that Russian forces have almost completed their “mopping up” operation in the town. Some of Kiev’s units there suffered “huge losses” after not getting out of Ugledar in time, the source added.

Also on Wednesday, an aide to the head of the DPR told RIA Novosti that a Russian flag had been raised above Ugledar’s administrative building. Yan Gagin also stressed, however, that it was too early to talk about Moscow’s forces being in full control of the town.

The Russian Defense Ministry did not mention Ugledar in its daily bulletin. It did report the capture of Verkhnekamenskoye village in the northeast of Donetsk People’s Republic. The settlement sits five kilometers (around 2.5 miles) east of the town of Seversk, an important Ukrainian stronghold and logistics hub in the area. Kiev’s forces have lost up to 2,120 service personnel across the front line over the past 24 hours, the ministry has estimated.
