Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council Secretary Oleksiy Danilov told reporters on Tuesday that Kyiv considers – and intelligence reports from the West agree – that “internal destabilization” caused by panic over a potential further Russian invasion is “the number one issue,” not any potential invasion.
With this “destabilization” – leading to generalized panic and the collapse of the national currency, the hryvnia – “the Russians have nothing to do here,” Danilov asserted, according to state outlet Ukrinform.
The remarks follow multiple national addresses from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urging Ukrainians to disregard agitated statements from the administration of President Joe Biden and its allies predicting an imminent Russian invasion deeper into Ukraine than Moscow already is. Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, colonizing Ukraine’s Crimean peninsula, and supporting “separatists” in the eastern Donbas region. Moscow insists the Donbas war is a “civil war,” but Kyiv has revealed extensive evidence of Russian military support against the Ukrainian army.
In one of the more dramatic episodes of the Donbas war, the government of the Netherlands concluded in 2015 that Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, a commercial airliner blown out of the sky over Ukraine, was hit by a Russian-made Buk missile operated by “separatists.” Countries representing the victims of the bombing have for years demanded Russian redress to no avail.
Concern over the situation in Donbas intensified significantly last week when Biden predicted in a press conference that Putin would invade Ukraine again and that he did not expect the United States to aid Ukraine in the event of a “minor incursion.”
“Russia will be held accountable if it invades. And it depends on what it does. It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do, et cetera,” Biden said.
They missed a Payment to Biden so now they go to Russia !!! LOL LOL
Should have paid Joe & Hunter on time !!! LOL LOL Too Late !!!!
I know this is off topic, but we need a post concerning Dan Satterfield of WBOC.
National Weather service, Accu Weather, Weather Channel, and other local stations are predicting 6 to 10 inches or more of snow. Yet Dan thinks he knows more than they do and is predicting only 3 to 6 inches of snow. We need to hold him accountable! If wrong, we need to make sure and let him know and his employer know! He has gotten his forecast wrong more than once and has put people’s lives in danger who depend on their forecast to go to work or decide to go out on the road.
This is just another Distraction by Democrats to PIVOT from their other troubles they are in !!!!
