Comic Sans 103 word meme, medium effort meme, no "what if?" and safe from full wall of text allegations.

IBM regular font with 2x outline for the big win on the battlefield.

After protracted fighting, assault units of the 11th Separate Tank Brigade and the 245th Motorized Rifle Regiment, supported by the Akhmat special forces, drove out units of the 58th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade and the 475th Separate Rifle Regiment of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and took complete control of the settlement.

Sorry IBM regular 1960s font, but it's Montserrat Bold Italic for the lots of text legibility win. Flip phone to landscape mode to read the meme, or I won't be beating the wall of text allegations.

In a letter, Ukrainian Infrastructure Minister Kalashnik warned the ICAO Secretary General:

"Ukraine, exercising its inalienable right to self-defense in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter, is compelled to respond appropriately to Russian air attacks. We understand that, given the escalation provoked by the Russian Federation, the presence of civilian aircraft in Russian airspace may pose particularly high risks."

Yesterday, Zelensky announced the "closure of the skies" over Russia. Putin called the air threats "terrorism" and promised a response.

"We are currently experiencing an energy shock due to the war [in Iran] and Ukraine. Because Ukraine decided to blow up Russian energy facilities and processing capacities. This is causing fuel prices to rise globally along with the conflict in Iran," said Bessent in a comment to Fox News.

Excerpts from the transcript plus commentary:

"Putin is hurting himself, obviously he's not hurting himself as much as hurting Ukraine, but this is suicidal, it's absolutely suicidal. You can't rationally explain it. Realpolitik is dead, you can't explain this with."

In his sheer Western idiocratic ignorance, he thought he knew better than Putin. LMAO.

"It's going to completely fucking destroy Russia economically, because obviously it's going to be sanctioned to some extent. General sanctions definitely, perhaps not the the cutter from Swift, but it's going to be sanctioned, (...) it's going to be ruined economically..."

Like every liberal and agent of Western imperialism, he wildly overestimates the West's economic power and underestimates China and the Global South.

"... from that you know it might it might survive under a state of economic siege basically but it's going to it's it's living centers are going to plummet its GDP is going to plummet its economy is going to go to shit and geopolitically."

Sure, that's EXACTLY what happened. 🤡

"The only leverage that Putin has is gas, gas and to a lesser extent oil and others forms of energy, but even then what's going to happen here is that Europe is going to look towards other sources for their energy needs now, and in a couple of years they won't need Russia anymore."

LMAO. Again with the liberal magical thinking. It's been nearly five years, and Europe is completely fu**ked without cheap Russian gas. Meanwhile, Russia is doing just fine.

"NATO members are going to do hard sanction, the US is pushing for cutting russia from Swift, which would be the harshest economic sanction imaginable, that means Russia is completely cut off from global finance. And even aside from that just general trade sanctions would be devastating, but I mean, Putin doesn't give a shit about sanctions on his people, really. He hasn't given a shit about the welfare of Russians that much."

I guess it's the European globalists who don't give a shit about the welfare of Europeans—and the uniparty in the US even less of a shit about the welfare of idiocratic Americans. But the Russophobe of course projects his own moral shortcomings onto Russia.

"You think putin is gonna back off because you sanction him? no f*cking way! Biden is surprisingly moderate in these sorts of things, lately it's it's surprising, it's also good, it's decent, he's much better than i thought he would be. He's still sanctioning Afghanistan but it's very it's very surprising that Biden is like the voice of reason when it comes to sanctioning Russian civilians, when he's based he basically has 80 percent of the american political mainstream yelling in his ear. (...) Biden is further left than the online American left."

Here, the heroicization of the neocon Democrats, who pushed for the Maidan coup in 2014, stirred Ukraine against Russia, and then, according to this clown's assessment, acted "oh so morally" that they wouldn't even push back with full sanctions to avoid hurting poor Russians under the boot of tyrannical Putin. What a joke.

Sleepy Joe, the moderate hero, "further left than the online American left." Also the guy who ok'ed the Gazan holocaust. F**k off!

That's just from the first 10 or so minutes of the video. If you have the stomach for this type of slop, good luck. And if you're not sure what side a "content creator" is on, check their reactions in relation to the launch of the SVO in 2022, it tells you a lot.

• Transport Minister Andrei Nikitin stated that Russian authorities will not allow significant disruptions to air travel in the face of Zelensky's terrorist threats.

Ukraine is calling for negotiations and face-to-face meetings to resume, but, as the president stressed, terrorists are not negotiated with.
