    Russia warns West sending F-16s to Ukraine ‘carries enormous risks’..

    High drama at the G7 as Zelensky arrives.. but with what cost with the arrival of more western weapons and aircraft be for the world?

    The war drums just keep on banging louder and louder with each new addition of United States arsenal ..

    The West’s effort to potentially send modern fighter jets to Ukraine “carries enormous risks,” Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko warned on Saturday, according to Russian state news agency TASS.

    The minister’s comments in an interview with TASS come in the wake of the U.S. getting behind a joint international effort to train Ukrainian pilots to use modern fighter aircraft including F-16s. This could also pave the way to eventually send advanced Western combat jets to Ukraine, according to a senior administration official. 

    Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy welcomed the U.S. decision in a tweet on Friday, saying that it “will greatly enhance our army in the sky.”

    Just another day in World War III.. Putin addresses his nation

    Russian President Vladimir Putin suspended Moscow’s participation in the last remaining nuclear arms control pact with the United States, announcing the move Tuesday in a bitter speech where he made clear he would not change his strategy in the war in Ukraine.

    In his long-delayed state-of-the-nation address, Putin cast his country — and Ukraine — as victims of Western double-dealing and said it was Russia, not Ukraine, fighting for its very existence.

    “We aren’t fighting the Ukrainian people,” Putin said ahead of the war’s first anniversary Friday. “The Ukrainian people have become hostages of the Kyiv regime and its Western masters, which have effectively occupied the country.”

    Planet Earth on edge: Russia ‘moves military equipment into Europe’s biggest nuke power plant’

    According to analysis from Canadian Forces Intelligence Command, Moscow has pumped military equipment into the site, including close to reactor buildings and other key plots.

    It comes after separate video emerged online showing Russian military vehicles, including one marked up with the pro-war “Z” symbol, inside a turbine hall connected to a nuke reactor.

    A number of pallets could also be seen close to the trucks, though it is unclear when the footage, verified by CNN, was taken.

    But Russia previously insisted the only military equipment at the plant is related to guard duties.

    Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant… it all starts here ?

  • Fears in Europe over the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant

    Fears in Europe over the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant

    NBC: Why is the world so worried about Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant? Experts warn that an explosion around the plant, which is being shelled, could leak radiation across Europe.

    Built by the then-Soviet Union in the 1980s, Zaporizhzhia’s six light-water reactors make it among the 10 most powerful nuclear power stations in the world.

    After the invasion began Feb. 24, the Kremlin war machine took a little over a week to capture the plant at Enerhodar, a city that is around a 2-hour drive southwest of the larger Zaporizhzhia.

    Russian forces’ seizure of the plant a week after the invasion began caused initial concerns when a fire erupted at the site after shelling.

    That offensive marked the first time in history that war had broken out in a country with such a large and advanced nuclear power infrastructure, according to the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency, which reports to the United Nations.

    That panic renewed this week after shelling damaged several buildings and a power cable, and put one reactor offline, according to Energoatom, Ukraine’s national energy company.

    The plant provides Ukraine with more than 20% of its power.

    Moscow is “blackmailing the whole world with the possibility of a nuclear disaster,” according to Hryhoriy Plachkov, former head of the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate of Ukraine.

    Russia, which is occupying the plant, has traded accusations of responsibility with Ukraine, which appears to be mounting a renewed offensive in the south of the country.

    It is not known how many of the plant’s 11,000 prewar staff continue to work at the site. One former employee told NBC News that it was “very scary for them to work” under Russian control, amid reports that some of them were being held hostage.

  • Zelensky warns that’s Russian blockade could lead to food shortage globally

    Zelensky warns that’s Russian blockade could lead to food shortage globally

    “Russian officials are also openly threatening the world that there will be famine in dozens of countries,” he said. “And what could be the consequences of such a famine? What political instability and migration flows will this lead to? How much will you have to spend then to overcome the consequences?”

    His comments came after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said his country is “not of a favorable opinion” of a move by Finland and, potentially, Sweden to join NATO. Ministers from both countries are expected to attend an informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Berlin later today.

  • Ukraine foreign minister: Mariupol doesn’t exist anymore

    Ukraine foreign minister: Mariupol doesn’t exist anymore

    Ukraine’s southern port city of Mariupol has been razed to the ground as Russian forces make “desperate” attempts to finish taking the city “at any cost,” Ukraine Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said Sunday.

    Kuleba appeared on CBS’ “Face the Nation” and described how the situation in Mariupol is “dire militarily” and “heartbreaking” after seven weeks under siege at the hands of the Russian army.

    “The city doesn’t exist anymore,” Kuleba said, adding that Ukrainian forces and a large group of civilians in the port city are encircled by Moscow’s forces. “They continue their struggle, but it seems from the way the Russian army behaves in Mariupol, they decided to raze the city to the ground at any cost.”

    Reports: Radiation from Chernobyl now deadly for Russian troops

    A RUSSIAN soldier has been killed by radiation from the destroyed Chernobyl nuclear plant in Ukraine after his unit camped in a toxic zone nearby, according to reports. The soldier was part of a unit that captured the Chernobyl plant in the first days of the war. 

    The troops then occupied the 20-mile exclusion zone around the plant, where people are banned from living due to dangerous levels of radiation left over by the nuclear disaster in 1986. 

    Ukraine’s state nuclear company Energoatom said Russian troops had dug trenches in the radioactive mud of the most contaminated part of the exclusion zone and had received “significant doses” of radiation. 

    They had reportedly camped in the dangerous zone known as the Red Forest, where radiation levels are at their highest and become ill “very quickly”. 

    Troops also drove their trucks along dirt roads without wearing radiation gear, disturbing poisonous radioactive dust, Reuters reported

    Putin addresses his nation—and calls people opposed to him inside Russia ‘scum’ and traitors to be spit out

    The speech of Russian president Vladimir Putin was perhaps the best showcase of a war in Ukraine not going according to plan, and Putin backed in the corner as Russian oligarchs ponder their future finances.

    There’s a number of possibilities as Putin desperately tries to rationalize the invasion of Ukraine, with one of the worst case scenarios still being on the table.
