❗️The Russian language is no longer protected in Ukraine – Zelenskyy signed a law removing it from the European Charter for Languages.
Instead, the Charter's scope has been preserved for all other languages to which it previously applied, and extended to Urum, Ruthenian, Romani, Czech, Krymtchak, Karaite, and Yiddish.
Holy shit! Another 🇺🇦 Flamingo 🦩 cruise missile just hit 💥 VNIIR, a 🇷🇺 defense industry complex in Cheboksary. Russians are scared AF and can’t believe what’s just happening.
Our Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine has obtained new Russian documents assessing the aggressor state’s losses from the war. Importantly, this is specifically a Russian internal assessment – one they are trying to conceal both from the world and from their own domestic audience.
The first major indicator is a reduction in active oil wells. Just a single Russian oil company – and not even the largest one – has already been forced to shut down around 400 wells. Given the specifics of Russian oil production, these are significant losses, as restarting wells in Russia is far more difficult than in other oil-producing countries.
The second indicator is a reduction in oil refining of at least 10% in just a few months this year alone. We see that our Ukrainian long-range sanctions are truly effective, and we will continue to scale up this line of our active actions. The data on the banking crisis in Russia is also quite convincing: 11 financial institutions are preparing for full liquidation due to problems that cannot be resolved by other means, while another eight banks have accumulated critical issues that cannot be addressed without external resources. This year’s federal budget deficit figures also look encouraging for us, standing at almost $80 billion by the fifth month of this year, alongside the bankruptcy of a significant number of Russian regional budgets.
I have also instructed the Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine, Oleh Luhovskyi, to share, in a format that does not compromise our sources, the obtained information on Russia’s attempts to involve global companies in resolving its financial hardship and in sanction-evasion schemes. In particular, we have recorded attempts to organize the export of grain from the temporarily occupied territory of Crimea – and, regrettably, other forms of economic exploitation of the peninsula involving entities from the United States. We will inform our partners. We are also recording attempts to bring investment and technology from democratic countries into Russia’s Arctic oil and gas projects. We know how to counter this. Thank you to everyone who helps us. Thank you to all our Ukrainian intelligence officers.
ZELENSKYY: Not only Russia, but also some partners who do not see Kyiv as a fully independent power are annoyed by Ukraine’s bilateral deals in the Middle East and the Gulf region.
“Of course, the Russians are especially annoyed by our contacts in the Middle East and the Gulf region. We know about it. We are also aware of the difficult attitude of our other partners to this, who would like to belittle the independence of our state. We consider this to be their mistake. We will ensure the national interests of Ukraine as our country needs” - Ukrainian President on Wednesday, April 29.
🇺🇦 Zelensky: Our missiles, unmanned systems, our interceptors, strike and naval drones and reconnaissance aircraft, artillery, ammunition, armored vehicles, robotic complexes and much more. All that today is truly proudly called “Ukrainian weapons”.
This is what strength, tempered by battle, pain, fire, looks like. This is what protection, the desire for freedom and justice looks like. This is what quality and accuracy, perfection and long-range look like. And this is what independence looks like. Tools to defend it. Arguments to win our peace.
Today is the professional day of those who multiply this strength of ours. Our Ukrainian gunsmiths are all employees of the defense-industrial complex of Ukraine. In four years, Ukraine has built a new defense industry. Large-scale, effective, impressive in every sense. I thank everyone who works in our defense complex, in our weapons industry for this.
Glory to our gunsmiths, glory to our “defense”! Thank you to everyone who helps! Glory to Ukraine!
Генсек НАТО заявив про перехід від «нездорової співзалежності» з США до «справжнього партнерства»
Рютте наголосив: ера слабкої оборони минула. Під тиском Дональда Трампа союзники збільшують витрати, аби спільно гарантувати безпеку, зокрема в Ормузькій протоці. https://t.co/q29ecdAX5D
Не в состоянии победить Украину в бою, теряя каждый день тысячи орчьих голов, нефтяные доходы на миллионы и миллионы, теряя свою засраную паРашу из-за того что слишком в себя поверили и полезли к соседям указывать как кому жить,орчья стая бешенных человекоподобных организмов способна только убивать по ночам мирных людей, детей наших! Мечтают что таким образом победят? Орки, вы же идиоты с рождения! Так вы только усугуляете свое положение, делаете себе только хуже!
@Zn_Portnova поки Трамп розповідає на арабських бізнес форумах як араби його мають цілувати у задницю, Зеленський з арабами заключає довгострокові контракти на арабські інвестиції в український ВПК. Це майстер клас від Зеленського.
Те що робить зараз Зеленський на міжнародному рівні,навіть не снилося жодному президентові України ,просто епохальна постать, пишаюся нашим лідером, він буквально врятував Україну в 22-му році, коли зібрав допомогу зі всього світу, і продовжує це робити щодня, повага!
«Трамп назвал Зеленского «лучшим продавцом в мире». За 48 часов Зеленский подписал три оборонных соглашения в трех столицах Персидского залива, заключил 10-летнее промышленное партнерство, направил более 200 специалистов и сделал Украину единственным поставщиком возможностей, которые американская система Patriot стоимостью 3,9 миллиона долларов не может воспроизвести: дешевый, массированный и проверенный в боевых условиях перехват беспилотников по цене 2100 долларов за штуку».
Браво! Огромное восхищение Зеленским и Украиной. 👏
