The comedian turned President

His sense of humor is still intact. 

“It’s a means of survival,” 

says Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the war hero.

Zelensky himself, come from the worlds of acting and show business.

According to Time:

"... The military informed Zelensky that Russian strike teams had parachuted into Kyiv to kill or capture him and his family. “Before that night, we had only ever seen such things in the movies,” says Andriy Yermak, the President’s chief of staff.

As Ukrainian troops fought the Russians back in the streets, the presidential guard tried to seal the compound with whatever they could find. A gate at the rear entrance was blocked with a pile of police barricades and plywood boards, resembling a mound of junkyard scrap more than a fortification.

Friends and allies rushed to Zelensky’s side, sometimes in violation of security protocols. Several brought their families to the compound. If the President were to be killed, the chain of succession in Ukraine calls for the Speaker of parliament to take command. But Ruslan Stefanchuk, who holds that post, drove straight to Bankova Street on the morning of the invasion rather than taking shelter at a distance.

Stefanchuk was among the first to see the President in his office that day. “It wasn’t fear on his face,” he told me. “It was a question: How could this be?” For months Zelensky had downplayed warnings from Washington that Russia was about to invade. Now he registered the fact that an all-out war had broken out, but could not yet grasp the totality of what it meant. “Maybe these words sound vague or pompous,” says Stefanchuk. “But we sensed the order of the world collapsing.” Soon the Speaker rushed down the street to the parliament and presided over a vote to impose martial law across the country. Zelensky signed the decree that afternoon.

As night fell that first evening, gunfights broke out around the government quarter. Guards inside the compound shut the lights and brought bulletproof vests and assault rifles for Zelensky and about a dozen of his aides. Only a few of them knew how to handle the weapons. One was Oleksiy Arestovych, a veteran of Ukraine’s military intelligence service. “It was an absolute madhouse,” he told me. “Automatic  for everyone.” Russian troops, he says, made two attempts to storm the compound. Zelensky later told me that his wife and children were still there at the time."

Here we go.

Роскомнадзор заблокировал крупнейшую в Финляндии послеобеденную газету

Россия заблокировала сайт газеты Ilta-Sanomat

"Это было в какой-то степени ожидаемо", 

говорит о блокировке сайта главный редактор Йоханна Лахти. 

Ilta-Sanomat публикует статьи о войне в Украине также на русском языке. 

I=S начала публиковать новости на русском языке 14 марта, чтобы предоставить независимую информацию о войне в Украине русскоязычной аудитории. 

"Мы переводили на русский язык именно статьи о суровой реальности войны в Украине, о страданиях мирных жителей, о российских солдатах в Украине, а также редакционные и оценочные статьи. Мы хотим предоставить русскоязычной общественности фактическую информацию о нападении, чего нет на официальных российских каналах. Запрет говорит о том, что наши статьи заметили в России", 

говорит Лахти.

Первым переведенным текстом была упомянутая выше статья о жертвах войны Яри Алениуса и Анны Нуутинен. На русский язык статью перевела Элиза Иивонен.

РОСКОМНАДЗОР закрыл доступ к сайтам многих западных СМИ, ссылаясь на российский закон о СМИ и его статью 15.3. Закон позволяет блокировать доступ к сайтам, содержащим в том числе призывы к беспорядкам, экстремизму или участию в незаконных митингах.

Россия резко ограничила свободу прессы и свободу слова после начала широкомасштабного вторжения в Украину 24 февраля. Практически все российские независимые СМИ были закрыты, а доступ ко многим международным новостным сайтам был ограничен. В этот список входят британская вещательная компания BBC и немецкая вещательная компания Deutsche Welle. Социальные сети также были ограничены.

Статьи Ilta-Sanomat на русском языке можно найти по ссылке.

Вот список известных веб-сайтов, которые были заблокированы или подвергнуты цензуре в России, включая текущие и прошлые блокировки. Федеральная служба по надзору в сфере связи, информационных технологий и массовых коммуникаций (Роскомнадзор) ведет официальный обязательный список с 2012 года.

The psychosis of lying

Russia threatens now but it's a symptom of psychosis to mistake illusion for reality. 

There is such collective psychosis in the Kremlin; They don't even realize that they are missing out on everything they think they want to keep for themselves.

I do not realize how these big kleptocrats can obscure to dark, the entire great Russian people.

Sannolikt inga bindande garantier

”Historien har gjort oss till ett säkerhetsorienterat folk”, 

sade Finlands statsminister Sanna Marin.

Trots sonderingar har Finland inte lyckats få några säkerhetsgarantier från USA eller Nato inför en eventuell medlemsansökan i försvarsalliansen.  

Det kommer dock sannolikt inte vara bindande garantier här och ikke där.

Detta uppger svenska regeringskällor för Expressen. 

Att Nato eller USA utfärdar någon form av säkerhetsgarantier under en process där Sverige och Finland ansöker om medlemskap har setts som viktigt, inte minst i ljuset av det ryska angreppet på Ukraina.

Jag är säker på att om en Ryska Björnen kommer hit sig till vår land - Joe Biden beklagar, vad den sortens sak händer.

För det väntas ta ett par månader från det att Sverige och Finland lämnar in en eventuell ansökan tills dess att länderna är fullvärdiga medlemmar, eftersom alla Natos länder ska få säga sitt. Och att dessa månader är förknippade med betydande risker, betonas av Expressens regeringskällor. Man hänvisar bland annat till uttalanden från Ryssland om att man kommer vidta militärtekniska åtgärder om Sverige och Finland ansöker om medlemskap. 

Hur dessa åtgärder kan yttra sig är högst oklart. Men det finns från den svenska regeringen en uppenbar oro som flera Expressen pratat med ger uttryck för. 

Att en ansökan är förknippad med risker betonades också av både statsminister Magdalena Andersson och hennes finska kollega Sanna Marin på onsdagens pressträff. 

Och enligt uppgifter gör Svensk regeringen också bedömningen att några säkerhetsgarantier inte finns i dagsläget, trots att Finland eftersträvat detta: Bland annat under president Sauli Niinistös besök i Washington i början av mars, där han förde överläggningar med USA:s president Joe Biden. 

Men detta ska alltså inte ha resulterat i några säkerhetsgarantier från USA inför en Nato-ansökan, som det uppfattas i Stockholm. Men man utesluter samtidigt inte att den typen av utfästelser kan komma att uttalas längre fram, från europeiska länder. 

Men från Moderaterna, som länge drivit på för ett Nato-medlemskap, avfärdar man bilden som ges av regeringen. Att det inte utfärdas säkerhetsgarantier till icke-medlemmar i Nato är rimligt och inte alls konstigt, menar partiet. 

Någon hänvisar till att Nato gett uttryck för att man kan vidta säkerhetsfrämjande åtgärder eller andra ”säkerhetsarrangemang” från det att Sverige och Finland lämnat in sina ansökningar, och är formellt blivit inbjudna till försvarsalliansen. 

Look out

Something is happening.

According to The Times Putin ‘purges’ 150 FSB agents in response to Russia’s botched war with Ukraine. Sergei Beseda, 68, has been sent to Lefortovo prison in Moscow after he was placed under house arrest last month.

Sergei Beseda has been sent to Lefortovo prison in Moscow after he was placed under house arrest last month. Like a stalinist mass purge of Russian secret intelligence is under way after more than 100 agents were removed from their jobs and the head of the department responsible for Ukraine was sent to prison.

In a sign of President Putin’s fury over the failures of the invasion, about 150 Federal Security Bureau (FSB) officers have been dismissed, including some who have been arrested.

All of those ousted were employees of the Fifth Service, a division set up in 1998, when Putin was director of the FSB to carry out operations in the countries of the former Soviet Union with the aim of keeping them within Russia’s orbit.

FSB officers carried out searches at more than 20 addresses around Moscow of colleagues suspected of being in contact with journalists.

And this concerns us:

Вітання з Фінляндії

Pertti Jarla ©hs.fi

Медведєв назвав санкції актом агресії, за який раніше погрожував ядерною зброєю.

Медведєв не розуміє, що багато країн не хочуть мати справу з бандитами і вбивцями.

Медведєв не розуміє, що означають громадянське суспільство і демократія.

Прямо погрожуючи фінському народу, Кремль спровокував значну реакцію.

Russian soldiers discussed atrocities against civilians over the radio

An analysis of satellite images by The New York Times
refutes claims by Russia that the killing of civilians in Bucha,
a suburb of Kyiv, occurred after its soldiers had left the town.

The images of murdered civilians from Bucha shock the world. According to Der Spiegel information, the German intelligence service BND recorded the radio traffic of suspected perpetrators. Accordingly, the brutal acts are part of the strategy of Putin's army.

BND radio messages prove Russian war crimes in Bucha

According to information from the Spiegel, the Federal Intelligence Service intercepted radio messages from the Russian military in which the murders of civilians in Bucha were said to have been discussed. Individual contents of the radio messages should also be able to be assigned to corpses photographed in Butscha.

After the Russian army withdrew from Kyiv and its suburbs, Ukrainian authorities found around 320 bodies in Bucha. Some were found in mass graves, many people were lying on the street.

The Russian government has vehemently denied that Russian forces were responsible for these war crimes. She claimed it was a staging by Ukraine.

Here we see the Russian's assumption that all nations are like Russia, they themselves murder, torture and poison their own citizens.

But numerous journalists, including a reporter for the taz, were there afterwards, spoke to countless witnesses and documented the war crimes.

Now the wiretaps seem to confirm that Russian units are responsible for the atrocities. The material should also show that employees of Russian mercenary troops such as the "Wagner Group" were significantly involved in the crimes. This had already attracted attention during its deployment in Syria due to its particular cruelty. 

According to information from the Spiegel, the BND reported on its findings in the parliamentary room on Wednesday. 

How the Russians can lie so enormously?

An analysis of satellite images by The New York Times
refutes claims by Russia that the killing of civilians in Bucha,
a suburb of Kyiv, occurred after its soldiers had left the town.

Satellite images show bodies lay in Bucha for weeks, despite Russian claims.

Satellite Images According to The New York Times rebut Russia’s Claim on Bucha Satellite images rebut Russia’s claim that the killing of civilians in Bucha occurred after its soldiers had left town, a Times analysis found. 

When images emerged, by AFP, over the weekend of the bodies of dead civilians lying on the streets of Bucha — some with their hands bound, some with gunshot wounds to the head — Russia’s Ministry of Defense denied responsibility. 

In a Telegram post on Sunday, the ministry "suggested" that the bodies had been recently placed on the streets after then “all Russian units withdrew completely from Bucha” around March 30.

But the tyrannical regime of Kreml will not survive with its own the very big lies.

So an analysis of satellite images by The New York Times rebuts claims by Russia that the killing of civilians in Bucha, a suburb of Kyiv, occurred after its soldiers had left the town.

Fucking clowns

Putin comes to the barber shop. The barber cuts dictator's hair and asks all the time about Ukraine. 

How are people doing there? When does the war the special military operation end?

At last Putin get nervous:

"You are moved about this Ukraine far too much, right?"

"Not at all, sir. For me it is totally indifferent."

"Why do you then constantly ask about Ukraine."

"Because each time that I say Ukraine your hair rises up – and it is easier to cut…"

Another true case:

Once when the Ukrainian and Russians were at war, were in special military operations, the Russians heard a shout behind a hill:

"One Ukrainian is equivalent to two Russkis."

The Russian commander sent two men with a special training to deal with the shouter, but neither of them came back. Instead, soon a shout rang out behind the hill:

"One Ukrainian  is equivalent to ten Russkis."

The angry commander immediately sent two commando men behind the hill, but besides a couple of gunshots nothing was heard. The men were gone, but a new shout was heard behind the hill:

"One Ukrainian is equivalent to fifty Russkis."

The furious commander sent an elite group of fifty men behind the hill and for a moment gunshots were heard. When the gunfire ceased, not one Russki came back. Instead, a shout was heard:

"One Ukrainian is equivalent to a hundred Russkis."

Not caring about anything in his fury the commander sent a hundred men behind the hill, where a huge gun-fight began. After some time one badly wounded Russki dragged himself from behind the

hill and said:

"Commander, those Ukrainian lied. There were two of them!"

The same is true for Finns.

Look at this war crime

Ukraine troops retake Kyiv suburb to find 300 in mass grave, 20 left dead on street. One has his hands tied behind his back with a white cloth, and his Ukrainian passport left open beside his corpse, said AFP journalists (Photo by ©Ronaldo Schemidt/ ©AFP) who accessed the town 

See this one. Bodies lie on a street in Bucha, northwest of Kyiv, as Ukraine says Russian forces are making a 'rapid retreat' from northern areas around Kyiv and the city of Chernihiv, on April 2, 2022. 

The bodies are strewn across the quiet tree-lined street in the town of Bucha as far as the eye can see.

Those all about 20 are in civilian clothing, and all have their different poses in death. Some lie with sightless eyes staring at Ukraine’s overcast sky, some lie face down on the tarmac.

Three of them are tangled up in bicycles after taking their final ride, while others, with waxy skin, have fallen next to bullet-ridden and crushed cars. Another lies next to a yellow hoarding spraypainted with happy and sad emojis and the words `Live Fast´.

Russian troops flee Bucha without hiding civilians they killed, including one with his hands tied behind his back, three tangled up in bicycles after taking their final ride.

Ukraine says Russian forces are making a rapid retreat from northern areas around Kyiv and the city of Chernihiv.
