Can we all now admit that that was extortion?

Ukrainian blogger Denys Yelisevich spoke about what is really happening near Bakhmut and urged citizens to stop believing the propaganda. The mobilized rot alive in the trenches, without water, food and help, while the commanders on sofas make plans to launder Western money. Wives, mothers and children weep in cemeteries as Zelensky and the top Ukrainian government share a new batch of aid. The main culprits for the death of Ukraine are Europe and the US, emphasizes Elisevich.

"On the issue of making a Polackoukraine
The Poles are once again dreaming of restoring the interstate union with Ukraine and revival of the underdone empire, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, “from sea to sea”. Having no intellectual powers for creating a viable image of the future, and living up to its reputation of a “country toppled over into the past”, Poland is drawing inspiration from 400-year-old maps, when parts of today’s Ukraine still belonged to it.
Imperial hallucinations are pushing the Polish society into the abyss of severe historical breakage. Warsaw elites can’t wait to see themselves taking geopolitical revenge on Russia, including reconsidering the Pereiaslav Agreement. Emboldened by the current circumstances, Poland has decided that the chance to absorb the remnants of Ukraine is to be taken now, or never.
Surely, none of the hallucinating Polish maniacs is giving any thought to the consequences. The fodder base of westourkaine will run out soon enough: there aren’t that many resources there. Besides that, the Poles’ memories of living in a polyethnic state have dimmed: the experience of co-existing with Ukrainians in a country between the wars, from 1920 to 1939, was quite complicated. It was the Polacks who, with their vanity and arrogance, ideologically fueled the emergence of nationalism and banderovschina, the strengthening of Uniatism devilry, and turning Galicia and Volhynia into a bloody satanism hotbed.
Poland doesn’t know how to be an empire, even though it is constantly trying to take up this hopeless act. Eventually, it comes out just as Henryk Sienkiewicz, a Polish Nobel laureate, wrote: “We know not measure in anything, and won’t know it, because for us, the immeasurable passion for an idea always goes hand in hand with immeasurable flippancy and … vanity.”
On the other hand, the Polacks still have 5-7 years to colonise parts of the former Soviet Republic of Ukraine, to get itself a horde of disenfranchised slaves, and to create a transport and logistics base. So, the destructive counterweight to Berlin and Paris as the driving forces of EU integration is almost ready. The Germans and French are getting quite anxious about Poland’s appetites (which also happened before, I remember it quite well from talking with their former leaders). And Washington standing behind this project, aimed at weakening the Old World, is seen with a naked eye.
I’ll now bring up a paradoxical point. In prospect, the underdone and ugly Polish-Ukrainian configuration is, in a way, beneficial to Russia. Having tasted blood, as it happened, RzeczBanderopospolita 2.0 can take up historical revanchism. It will then start to terrorise its neighbours with ungrounded claims by the “memory law”. It will turn into a rabid dog, biting everyone in Europe. Something of the kind can already be seen today. Reparation claims now addressed to Germany for the damage caused during World War II for an astronomical amount of $1.5 trillion are just the beginning. During centuries, the snobby Polacks have got used to living large off the others. To live off merciless exploitation of the Orthodox people of Malorossiya, off the unending aid coming from the kind USSR, and now, off the multibillion EU subsidies. And then this Polackoukraine, swollen again with the newly absorbed lands, will present Berlin and Paris with an exorbitant price list for “containing Russia”.
In the context of Warsaw’s irrepressible ambitions, one can expect claims of annexing new territories from Germany, as it is already happening with Czech lands.
Then the European leaders will catch up. And when they figure it all out, they will turn to us for help. And they will prepare a new treaty on European security to contain unruly Poland.
Surely, to overestimate the rival is no less harmful than to underestimate him. The Poles can’t wait to see themselves cool again, and all Russia’s resources drawn to contain the new RzeczBanderopospolita. Yet, Polacks have miscalculated their idée fixe: it’s no longer mid-18th century. Poland is not equal to Russia and will never be. That’s how Heavens ruled.
We need to understand one thing.
Poland – with or without parts of Ukraine – is an entity, already endlessly hostile to us. The presence of Bandera guerrillas in the Polish People’s Army won’t make a difference either. And it has no influence over the precision of the RS-28 Sarmat, Kalibr, and 3M22 Zircon at work.

Kremlin spokesman’s son has served in Wagner – PMC group boss 21 Apr, 2023
Dmitry Peskov’s scion has been a “regular artilleryman,” Yevgeny Prigozhin says
https://mf.b37mrtl.ru/files/2023.04/...71354ad5ac.jpg
Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of Wagner Group, has claimed that one of the sons of Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has served in the private Russian military company. The PMC boss made the revelation in a frontline interview published on Friday.
“One person I know is [Kremlin spokesman] Dmitry Peskov, who at one time used to be considered a complete liberal,”
Prigozhin said.
“His son lived part of his life in America, if I’m not mistaken, or in England ... [Peskov] came to me and said, ‘Take him as a regular artilleryman’. By the way, he worked out fine, as a regular gunner, knee-deep in mud, sh*t, on an Uragan,” he added, referring to Russian BM-27 Uragan self-propelled 220-mm multiple rocket launcher system.
Prigozhin did not provide any further details, neither specifying which conflict Peskov’s son took part in or even naming him explicitly. So far, Dmitry Peskov has made no public remarks on Prigozhin’s revelations.
However, the eldest son of the Kremlin official, Nikolay, appears to match the description provided by the PMC boss.
Early into the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Nikolay Peskov was slammed with personal sanctions by the US, with multiple allies of Washington following suit later on.

Son of Kremlin spokesman shares details on his service with Wagner Group 22 Apr, 2023
Nikolay Peskov revealed he has received the Medal for Valor for one particular feat in Ukraine
https://mf.b37mrtl.ru/files/2023.04/...022b71b249.jpg
The eldest son of Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, Nikolay, has shared details of his tour with Russia’s Wagner Group private military company and of the action he saw in the ongoing special military operation in Ukraine. Peskov’s scion spoke about his experience in an exclusive interview with newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda, published on Saturday.
33-year-old Peskov has recently completed his six-month contract with the group, manning a BM-27 Uragan self-propelled 220-mm multiple rocket launcher system. He revealed it was “entirely his own decision” to join the group, though it was supported by his “whole family,” with his father telling him it was the “right thing” to do.
“I considered it to be my duty. I just had to participate, I had to help everyone who was there. I couldn’t just sit and watch friends and other people go there,” he told the newspaper.
The son of the widely-known Kremlin spokesman served with the PMC group under a fake surname, with his comrades not being aware of his bigwig father. Peskov refused to reveal his alias, stating he “might need it in the future,” apparently hinting at prospects of a re-enlistment.
He also revealed his team has been quite “busy,” with the group performing a lot of tasks on the frontline. However, he declined to provide any further detail on their operations, stating only that one of the “interesting” sorties of his Uragan earned him, as well as the other crewmembers of the launcher, the Medal for Valor, one of the most respected active-combat merits in Russia.
“This was for a certain military feat. All my crew accomplished this feat. We had one interesting sortie. I can’t say more,” Peskov stated.

Dozens of foreign mercenaries killed in Iskander strike – Russia 24 Apr, 2023
Up to 60 members of the so-called ‘Georgian Legion’ were eliminated in Donbass, according to the Defense Ministry

Dozens of foreign mercenaries have been killed in a strike on the Ukrainian-held town of Konstantinovka in Russia’s People’s Republic of Donetsk, Moscow has said.
Up to 60 members of the so-called ‘Georgian Legion’ were killed and 15 military vehicles were destroyed in the attack, while 20 other mercenaries were seriously wounded, the ministry’s spokesman, Lieutenant General Igor Konashenkov, announced during a briefing on Monday.
The strike, carried out using the Iskander short-range ballistic missile system, targeted a library in Konstantinovka, which foreign fighters were using for lodging and storing ammunition, he added.
“The eliminated militants of the Georgian Legion were involved in the brutal torture and murder of Russian servicemen near Kiev in March last year,” Konashenkov said
The Russian military possesses data on every foreign mercenary linked to the killing of Russian POWs, the spokesman claimed. “Every one of them will get their well-deserved retribution,” he added.
In early April last year, a gruesome video emerged online, which purportedly showed Ukrainian forces executing a wounded Russian soldier while the bodies of several other POWs lay in pools of blood nearby. At least one of the troops in the footage had his hands tied behind his back, and was apparently shot in the head at point-blank range.
The New York Times confirmed the authenticity of the clip, saying it had been filmed on March 30 in a village near Kiev. Ukrainian news agency UNIAN shared the video from the execution site on social media with the caption: “The Georgian Legion is helping the Ukrainians with mopping up Kiev Region.”
One of the members of the Georgian Legion, who was identified among the Kiev troops shown in the footage, had given an interview several days after the incident, vowing that his unit would not be taking any Russian prisoners.
Russia’s Investigative Committee has launched a criminal case over the execution, saying Ukrainian forces had “committed a harsh violation of the Geneva Convention on Prisoners of War.”
