FACT SHEET: United States Bans Imports of Russian Oil, Liquefied Natural Gas, and Coal…

Today, President Biden will sign an Executive Order (E.O.) to ban the import of Russian oil, liquefied natural gas, and coal to the United States – a significant action with widespread bipartisan support that will further deprive President Putin of the economic resources he uses to continue his needless war of choice.

The United States is able to take this step because of our strong domestic energy infrastructure and we recognize that not all of our Allies and partners are currently in a position to join us. But we are united with our Allies and partners in working together to reduce our collective dependence on Russian energy and keep the pressure mounting on Putin, while at the same taking active steps to limit impacts on global energy markets and protect our own economies…

Good morning Mr and Mrs America and all the ships at sea…

The Saudis are buying up Russian diesel — and selling more of the stuff they produce themselves

What the Saudis are doing is pretty simple, according to Matt Smith of the data and analytics firm Kpler.

“They’re not doing it just from the goodness of their own heart,” he said. “They were able to take this cheap material, consume it domestically, and then export their own at a market price, which will be much higher.”

Unconfirmed intercepted messages from Neom, Saudi Arabia allegedly included this terse one liner, ‘Dear Joe, it’s just business’.

Neom, depending on interpretive abilities, translates to English as ‘new future’; as a visionary message it can be interpreted as ‘a line in the sand’.

Unexpected counter-offensive results shocked Ukrainians

The beginning of the announced offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine VSU for the Kiev regime turned into a real information catastrophe.

The Ukrainian media simply ignore the events that are taking place on the front line, because attempts to break through the defense of the Armed Forces of Russia on several directions have led to serious losses for the VSU.

Yuri Podoljak’s famous military journalist reported on that. He wrote in detail on his author’s Telegram channel about the unexpected silence of the Ukrainian media and explained why the first results of the VSU counterattack were a complete surprise for the Ukrainians.

Yuri The Podok reminded that only a few days ago, the Kiev regime started the previously announced VSU offensive. The Ukrainian army, starting with active fighting, faced fierce resistance from Russia’s Armed Forces. All attempts to break through the defense completely failed, and the fighters suffered great losses in human and military technique. The Russian army is successfully destroying Ukrainian tanks, infantry vehicles and other military techniques.

According to journalists, the first results of the counterattack were a real surprise for Ukrainians. That is why the local media completely ignore the situation that takes place on the front line and do not inform the local population about what is happening on the front lines.

<.divnije1>They did not expect this: Kiev CIPSA Central Information and Propaganda Information and Propaganda Service and Ukrainians are completely shocked by the first results <71>. Well, just a complete ignore. There is no contranapada in the information space of Ukraine. That is the best proof of the complete shock of information experts on their part. This is the only case in the last year and a half when their army has been trying to attack for three days, and that is not accompanied by absolutely any information support. And that is significant to Podjek, Podoka concluded.

From https://srbin.info/pocetna/aktuelno/rat-u-ukrajini-ce-prerasti-u-nesto-mnogo-vece/

The West has a history of arming and supporting various groups in conflict to advance its agenda. The recent conflict in Syria is an example of that.

However, this time the West does not arm or support another shabby organization such as Free Syrian Army A Dvodi1>. It arm and supports the second largest army in Europe after Russia, or which was the second largest army in Europe.

Until Russia launched its special military operation , the Ukrainian armed forces were larger than those in France and Germany combined. With about 700,000, most of them were volunteers who trained and equipped other NATO members.

Since then, the war has drastically reduced those numbers by more than 150,000, if not more.

Until the Russian special military operation Zodna 1>, the continuous military strengthening of Ukraine with the help of the West, only heightened Moscow’s concern that Kiev would join NATO. So, along with persistent reports of the persecution of Russian-speaking people in eastern Ukraine, Moscow felt justified in taking action. Hence the Russian special military operation Odačni1> in Ukraine.

However, Moscow did not fully understand the full scope of Western plans for Ukraine. Because just as they used the Free Syrian army against President Assad, the West intended to use Ukrainian forces as representatives against Russia.

That is why Russia, when it launched its special military operation in February 2022, did so with an insufficient number of people. She did not expect a long war to be fought, because Putin was counting on a quick solution in the form of a limited military operation.

In fact, by April 2022, his plans seemed to be actually working, after the President Greens signaled that he was ready to negotiate with Russia.

After Boris Johnson, a surprisingly unannounced visit to Kiev, there was no more talk of an amicable solution with Moscow. We can only assume that the then British Prime Minister Johnson warned the Greens, not to enter into any peace agreement.

Only then did Russia realize what it was actually facing, and only then did it start mobilizing enough people.
