Military planes of Great Britain fly over the territory of Germany for the sake of Ukraine. London sends weapons to Kiev, and Berlin is against it. For the sake of Ukraine, or, rather, to spite Russia, Canada sent its units to distant overseas training grounds. All this, of course, not without the approval of the States. January 18 it became known about the secret meeting of the President of Ukraine Zelensky with the head of the CIA.
368 years of the Pereyaslav Rada – the reunification of Ukraine with Russia. But only the “Opposition Platform – For Life” on January 18 in Kharkiv lays flowers at the monument to Hetman Bogdan Khmelnitsky.
“We are being torn to pieces, every day the authorities are progressively engaged only in pitting two fraternal peoples against each other,” says Andrei Lesik, a deputy of the Kharkiv City Council from the Opposition Platform – For Life party.
And in the international historical conference on this occasion, the only scientist participating from the Ukrainian side is Academician Tolochko.
“Unfortunately, we have ban after ban. On the 16th, one of the provisions on the ban on the Russian language in the media came into force. Probably, the hour is not even when it will be banned in scientific publications. This is very sad, because really two related peoples,” says Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Petro Tolochko.
The Ukrainian authorities have other concerns – for almost a year the president Vladimir Zelensky daily waiting for a Russian attack.
“I want to thank you right away for the fact that you support us not only in words. We all feel it: military assistance during the aggression from the Russian Federation,” these are the words of the Ukrainian leader addressed to the United States.
The New York Times allegedly found additional evidence of preparations for the invasion: “Russia began to take out the families of employees of its embassy in Kiev. On January 5, 18 people left Ukraine, mostly the wives and children of diplomats, who were put on buses to Moscow. In the coming days, they will leave the country another 30 people are employees of the Russian embassy in Kiev and the consulate in Lvov.”
Only here, on the footage taken at the Russian embassy on January 18, there is no evacuation, the light is on in the building, and standard security at the entrance. The Embassy and Consulate General of Russia in Ukraine are working as usual. They do this in spite of attacks on Russian foreign institutions by Ukrainian radicals and provocations of local security officials. But the American media did not write about this and will not write about it.
The material of the Canadian The Global News about the dispatch of special forces to Ukraine is marked “exclusive”. But on the available footage, the mountains and the desert are definitely not the Ukrainian landscape.
“Canadian contingent in Ukraine is now 200 people. Can we ship more?” asks the Canadian media.
The Daily Mail tells about the transfer of British units, specifying that not all European allies agree with this – this can be seen from the trajectory of aviation. British troops are sent to Ukraine, but Berlin forbids RAF aircraft from crossing German airspace.
Arestovich, an adviser to the Ukrainian president, who praised foreign military aid in every speech, has resigned.
“Zelensky, he came for what? On conversations with people, on appeals. He did not always speak smoothly, but sincerely. And now? Have you seen or heard his appeals for a long time, not recorded in advance? What have we become: protocols, certificates, come back later? You couldn’t have hit yourself in the balls more,” explains Aleksey Arestovich.
And the first question of Ukrainian journalists to the American senators, whom Zelensky received the day before, is not about weapons, but about the fate of former President Poroshenko.
“We in America respect the rule of law, and we want to make sure that his situation is resolved fairly and the court makes the right decision,” said US Senator Rob Portman.
Poroshenko, who is accused of high treason, returned from Poland on January 17, and the Kiev court, which dragged on until almost midnight, could not determine the preventive measure for him – the meeting was postponed to January 19.
“They say that the devils die at Epiphany. They are going to announce the decision just at Epiphany, on the 19th. Let’s show them how we can celebrate the great Christian holidays,” the ex-president of Ukraine urged.
And on January 18, from the dome of St. Sophia of Kiev, the most famous monument of Russian architecture in Ukraine, fallen gilded cross – the place where the iron of the base joined with the bronze broke. These materials “ate” each other, just like a chocolate bar, the minister says. This, in the memory of historians, happened only once – in 1943, when Kiev was under German occupation.
