History was written today: NATO formally invites Finland and Sweden to join


Guess this map will have to be updated to show how poor Russia is "surrounded" by "insatiable war monger" NATO:

In the largest prisoner exchange since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, 144 Ukrainian soldiers were exchanged for an equal number of Russian and separatist fighters.

Also, on the same page.

Britain announces new military aid to Ukraine.

UK pledged on Wednesday another 1 billion pounds ($1.2 billion or €1.15 billion) in military aid to Ukraine to help it fend off Russia's invasion.

The package includes "sophisticated air-defense systems, uncrewed aerial vehicles, innovative new electronic warfare equipment and thousands of pieces of vital kit for Ukrainian soldiers," Downing Street said in a statement.

IMHO, same goes here with that kind of announcement. One should be cautious, mostly all this is public relation. Remember the big earthquake in Haiti, a few year ago and the sum that was pledge by the international community : more than $5 Billions us. Well many year later, only about 1/10 of that amount reached the country. As of Ukraine international support, yes it is substantial, no doubt about that but It will be always short of the sum of everything written in the media.. The help to Ukraine has a strong popular support in most occidental countries. Politicians will dwell on it.

Insane POUTINE croyait/espérait -- de par son invasion honteuse de l'Ukraine ---diviser les forces de l'OTAN.....MAIS AU CONTRAIRE a contribué à souder encore davantage TOUS les pays membres :) ...et a même renforci cette alliance avec l'ajout de la SUÈDE et de la FINLANDE...in your face...ignoble tyran.

Lui qui voulait aussi se livrer à une guerre ''psychologique'' avec le reste du monde se retrouve maintenant avec UN GÉANT à ses portes.....prêt à intervenir en tout temps.....BRAVO pour cette forte réponse vis-à-vis un agresseur qui va vite se rendre compte qu'il est

maintenant SOUS HAUTE SURVEILLANCE.....well done.

Putin says Russia has no problems with Finland, Sweden in NATO.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that Russia has no problems with Finland and Sweden joining NATO.

"We don't have problems with Sweden and Finland like we do with Ukraine," Putin told a news conference in the capital of Turkmenistan, Ashgabat.

"If Finland and Sweden wish to, they can join. That's up to them. They can join whatever they want." :D

Russia on Thursday pulled back its forces from a strategically placed Black Sea island where they have faced relentless Ukrainian attacks, but kept up its push to encircle the last bulwark of Ukraine's resistance in the eastern province of Luhansk.

Russia's Defense Ministry said it withdrew its forces from the Zmiyinyy (Snake) Island off Ukraine's Black Sea port of Odesa in what it described as a “goodwill gesture.”

Ukraine's military said the Russians fled the island in two speedboats following a barrage of Ukrainian artillery and missile strikes.

Ukraine’s army accused Russia of carrying out strikes using incendiary phosphorus munitions on Snake Island Friday, just a day after Moscow withdrew its forces from the rocky outcrop in the Black Sea.

The Russian defense ministry on Thursday described the retreat as “a gesture of goodwill” meant to demonstrate that Moscow will not interfere with UN efforts to organize protected grain exports from Ukraine.

The Ukrainian army on Friday accused the Russians of being unable to “respect even their own declarations.”
