"I believe we have to deliver a severe blow against Russian imperialism in order to cut off Russia's colonial appetite for theft of territories from other countries, once and for all," Lipavský told journalists.

Czechia might not be Ukraine’s biggest partner, but it has set an example for others.
 
  • Russian officers expected female medics to sexually please them, according to a new report.
  • Those who refused were punished, one woman who served in the Russian army said.
  • She said she was made to sleep outside for a month after she refused to sleep with a colonel.
A Russian service member deployed to Ukraine said that high-ranking officers used female medics in their own military as sex slaves, and punished those who did not cooperate.

The soldier, identified as Margarita, told Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty that female medics in her unit were made into "field wives" who were required to cook and clean for platoon officers, as well as "please" them sexually, according to a translation by The Daily Beast.



 
Of course it fell apart, the US troop presence basically instantly evaporated instead of being withdrawn. This not a withdrawal but a rout, as soon as the Taliban did not keep to their end the US should have ceased the "withdrawal" and reinforced their troops. Instead the Taliban flooded the country unopposed due to the army being hamstrung by their top brass also fleeing in the middle of the night when they heard to their surprise what Biden did.

You're aware the presence in Afghanistan was a 60 country coalition and they all withdrew but you only concentrate on and blame the USA?

The I hate the USA thread is that way --->


That does not exist. They negotiate the way Middle Easterners in general negotiate. Long with a LOT of haggling and jockeying for better strategic positions. They don't think like westerners in terms of pros and cons calculations.

Do you mean the way hard line fundamentalist Islamists negotiate? There are actual terms in Arabic for these negotiating strategies:

Taqiyya;
Tactical deceit for the purposes of spreading Islam. This is what you see at press conferences after terror attacks when they pretend to denounce killers.

Tawriya;
Deceit by ambiguity - Doublespeak, refusing to give straight answers, exploiting conflicts of definition etc.

Maruna;
The temporary suspension of Sharia for a moderate appearance.

Kitman;
Deceit by omission - withholding key information.

There can only be one outcome in negotiations using these strategies and it can only be for the hardliners. No logic or facts make an impact in this type of negotiation. Only results acceptable to faith and belief of the hardliners.
 
In an interview with POLITICO, President of the International Committee of the Red Cross Mirjana Spoljaric highlighted the terrible war contamination that will be left behind, independent of the DU shells. “Decontamination can take decades before you can think about any reasonable levels of agriculture and reconstruction,” she said, speaking prior to the British announcement on their deployment.

“Croatia took almost 30 years to complete decontamination of all affected areas. I hear that the level of contamination in some parts of Ukraine is so high now that it is comparable to, if not exceeding levels in Afghanistan. The impact of contamination in Ukraine will depend on the intended land use in the future and, in any case, agreement on access for clearance personnel will be a precursor to start clearance activities,” Spoljaric said.

 
Russian drug manufacturers and laboratories are faced with serious shortage of excipients, which is mainly due to serious interruptions in their deliveries to the Russian market, reports The Pharma Letter’s local correspondent.

Among these products are mainly dyes, stabilizers and thickeners, which prior to the February 24 invasion of Ukraine were mainly purchased by Russian companies in the European Union and the USA.

 
The call covers a number of issues. The serviceman admits to RuAF shelling Torska settlement indiscriminately. Kremmina where he is stationed is in the Luhansk oblast and is mostly Russian speaking yet the locals dislike them and instead of speaking Russian, they speak Ukrainian and have an active resistance group.
