Christopher Hitchens warns about Vladimir Putin
Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKfwgM_VtBs&ab_channel=FallopiumFilms
These are segments from Hitch’s speech “Axis of Evil” given on March 8th, 2005 at the University of Western Ontario. The speech mainly focused on the dictatorships of Iraq, Iran, and North Korea. In these clips however, the Russian regime, ruled by Vladimir Putin (then, and still now), is mentioned. The similarities between these small, tribal, theocratic regimes and that of Putin’s Russia is hauntingly similar. Considering this speech was also over a decade ago, Hitch’s comments on Putin and Russian indignation are strikingly prophetic.

LIVE – War in Ukraine: Follow the latest on FRANCE 24 English
🔴 Follow the latest news on the War in Ukraine LIVE on France 24:
An embargo on Russian oil imports over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine would ‘hit everyone’ in Europe, the Kremlin said Monday, as EU foreign ministers met in Brussels. At least eight people were killed in an overnight bombing in Kyiv as Ukraine rejected an ultimatum to surrender the besieged city of Mariupol to Russian forces. Many of the city’s 400,000 residents remain trapped with little if any food, water and power, and have faced some of the heaviest bombardments since the invasion began on February 24.

Russia: A small town clings to its Soviet past | DW Documentary
The citizens of the provincial Russian town of Yelnya cling to their heroic Soviet past. It was here where the Red Army pushed back Hitler’s troops for the first time in 1941. This documentary from 2019 shows the continued pride in the military that is encouraged from early childhood.

Before the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, parts of the Russian army were concentrated in Yelnya. But even before that, the place was closely linked with the military. For years, annual rituals commemorating the “Great Patriotic War” have been held.

Yelnya has remained economically marginalized ever since the Soviet Union collapsed and young people here have few prospects. Children in Yelnya are raised to become good patriots. Starting at kindergarten age, they march to songs whose meaning they can hardly grasp.

In his documentary, Dmitry Bogolyubov explores how in recent years, the memory of the war victims has been increasingly overshadowed by all-encompassing militarization of society and anti-Western slogans.

[This documentary was originally released in 2019.]

Is Putin not getting the full picture of the Ukraine invasion by his advisers? | DW News
US President Joe Biden said Russian President Vladimir Putin seems to be self-isolating and may have sacked some of his advisers. “He seems to be self-isolated and there’s some indication that he has fired or put under house arrest some of his advisers,” Biden said. “But I don’t want to put too much stock in that at this time.” Earlier, US and UK intelligence reports said Putin was being “misled” by his advisers about the developments of the war in Ukraine. The Kremlin denied the claim.

Pentagon spokesman John Kirby it was not clear if Russia’s convoy of military vehicles to Kyiv, “even exists” anymore after failing to accomplish its mission. The stalled convoy, which had once stretched some 40 miles (64 kilometers), became a symbol of Russia’s battlefield difficulties and had been reportedly attacked several times by Ukrainian forces during the first weeks of the more than monthlong war. “I don’t even know if it still exists at this point… They never really accomplished their mission,” Kirby told reporters, responding to a question about whether the Pentagon had any updates about the convoy. “They never really accomplished their mission. They never really provided any supply of any value to Russian forces assembling around Kyiv,” he added. “The Ukrainians put a stop to that convoy pretty quickly.”

Osnat Lubrani, the UN humanitarian coordinator in Ukraine, says supplies have been delivered for thousands of people in the country’s northeast — but some encircled cities in the south of Ukraine remain difficult to reach. Lubrani said food rations from the UN’s partners will benefit nearly 6,000 people in Sumy and areas including Trostianets and Okhtyrka. According to Lubrani, basic household items, including blankets and kettles from the UN refugee agency, will support 1,500 people. Sanitation kits will also help 6,000 people with hygiene and drinking water, she said. The UN-facilitated humanitarian notification system with Ukraine and Russia enabled safe passage for the convoy to Sumy on Thursday, “but this is clearly not enough,” Lubrani said. However, efforts to reach Mariupol, Kherson and other southern Ukrainian cities have been unsuccessful over the past month due to safety concerns.

The Syrians recruited to fight for Russian forces in Ukraine – BBC News
Russia has said it has signed up some 16,000 recruits from the Middle East to fight with its forces in the war in Ukraine.

Social media in Syria has been flooded with requests for people to join Russian troops in return for up to $7,000 for deployment.

One former Syrian regime soldier who has been offered thousands of dollars to fight in the war told the BBC that his country’s broken economy means hundreds of Syrians are putting themselves forward.

Putin critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky: Putin realizes ‘there can be no military solution’ | DW Interview
Over a month after Moscow launched its invasion of Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin has come to understand that “there can be no military solution here,” exiled Russian oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky told DW. Khodorkovsky, a prominent critic of the Russian leader, previously spent a decade in prison in Russia on charges widely regarded as revenge for challenging Putin’s rule. Russian troops began their invasion of Ukraine on February 24. Putin announced that the operation aimed at “demilitarizing” and “de-nazifying” the former Soviet state and protecting Russian speakers in the country. But with Russia failing to quickly occupy the country due to strong Ukrainian resistance and its troops getting bogged down, Moscow recently announced a change in its war aims, saying that it will focus on the “liberation” of the Donbas region in eastern Ukraine. “Putin is stuck when it comes to the military operation,” Khodorkovsky said, adding, “Putin has two options now: Either he escalates things, which could mean either introducing mobilization or using tactical nuclear weapons, or he can stabilize the situation and begin peace talks in earnest.” In the interview with DW, Khodorkovsky also stressed the importance of a unified Western position. “The West’s position needs to be clear, meaning comprehensive support for Ukraine if the war continues and in case Putin uses tactical nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction,” he underlined. “That sort of clear position from the West will, let’s say, help Putin make the right decision.”
