The CIA has been attempting to get Turkey to send their Russian supplied air defence systems, including the advanced S-400, to Ukraine. As reciprocation, America would supply Turkey with new air defence systems and allow the purchase of F-35 fighters. The fighters had been embargoed last year after Turkey received the S-400's from Russia. Turkey is not surprisingly unwilling to play along with this game.

Washington has offered Ankara to hand over S-400 air defence systems to Ukrainian troops, Reuters has reported.

Earlier, former CIA official Paul Kolbe suggested that Turkey should play a "triple game" against Russia. He believes that if the Turks send their S-400s to Ukraine to attack Russian warplanes, the US will supply Ankara with other air defence systems in return. Besides, in such a case Washington is ready to resume deliveries of F-35 fighter-bombers to Turkey.

We shall remind you that the US authorities are now looking around the world for Russian or Soviet-made anti-aircraft missile systems, which Ukraine could use to counter Russian aviation and missiles.







Following Biden's phone call with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Foreign Minister Wang Yi has said that all foreign attempts to coerce and affect China's assessment of events in Ukraine will fail.

Attempts by foreign countries to influence China's assessment of the events in Ukraine will fail, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has said. China bases its judgement on the "merits of the case", he said.

"We will never accept any external coercion and pressure, and we also oppose any baseless accusations and suspicions against China," Wang Yi said.

Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has said that there is convergent at the talks between Russia and Ukraine. The critical first four issues are very close to being resolved.


The positions of Russia and Ukraine have converged on a number of critical issues during the talks, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said.

"There is a convergence of positions of both sides on important issues, including critical ones. In particular, we see that they are almost identical on the first four points. Some issues need to be resolved at the leadership level," Çavuşoğlu was quoted as saying by Hurriyet.

"The first four points, according to the Turkish administration, are:

▪️ Ukraine's neutral status.
▪️ Demilitarisation of Ukraine and mutual security guarantees.
▪️ The "denazification" of Ukraine.
▪️ Rejection of laws restricting the use of the Russian language in Ukraine.





Online talks are set to continue tomorrow.

Online talks between the official delegations of Russia and Ukraine are scheduled to resume on 21 March, the Ukrainian news and analysis website Ukrayinska Pravda has quoted TASS as saying.

Representatives of Russia and Ukraine negotiate daily in video format, this saves time and money, Medinsky wrote in his Telegram channel.

Israel has its hands busy these days dodging Iranian missiles, Iran just killed 9 Mossad generals stationed in an Erbil, Iraq makeshift headquarters...

There is an embedded video in this article of Azov playing the theme to Terminator on a piano while holding an assault rifle and standing over several hostages lying face down on the ground (presumably in their home).
Where is this taking place? Is it just in Mariupol or is it in Lviv and further West? I hope Russia invades all of Ukraine and rescues these poor people...this is terrible.

This one. It could be in Mariupol.

The "defenders of Ukraine" from the Azov National Battalion and their hostages.
It is unlikely that this will be shown in the Western media, but we will try to make sure that many, if not all, will see it. First and foremost, those who continue to believe that there is no Nazism in Ukraine.

A huge queue for food in Nikolaev.








It is being alleged that Elon Musk's Starlink is being used for military purposes, in particular by Ukrainian drones.

One of the most ridiculous propaganda pieces I've ever seen. Jerry-rigged drones are using a jerry-rigged satellite network (that isn't even operational, being just in production and this is a public fact) to destroy helpless Russian tanks, while magically the enemy with massive air superiority just politely stands by and let's it happen? LOL!

Mariupol is being given a short window for disarmed fighters to leave for other parts of Ukraine. It is unlikely AZOV will accept this, but the offer has been made. They have until the early hours to make a decision.

Kiev has taken a BIG missile strike tonight, possibly an Iskander.





Kiev's Kurenivka has been hit. Locals report that the Retroville shopping centre building is on fire.

500 metres away is the building of the Pushcha-Voditsa research and production agro-industrial complex.

Question: I saw a lot of movies popping up of people being tied to lamp posts.

What do I see here? Is this real? Is this propaganda?



I think the narrative is that these are thieves and that military men tie them up like this to punish them.
I'm surprised all these movies pop up at this moment, which make me doubt the reality of it.

I asked someone in Ukraine today and was told it is happening, but it is mostly reserved for thieves and "marauders." They usually get let go the same day. We're now in the grey zone of street justice...

Has Russia's first ever use of their hypersonic missile made Western oligarchs fearful? They may be safe from us peasants, but are they safe from "Kinzhal"?
And if Russia can strike so effectively past NATO’s air defenses at will without even using its hypersonic missiles, there is nowhere in Europe where the globalist warmongers can consider themselves safe from targeted missile strikes. And now that the attempts to split China from Russia have obviously, and publicly, failed, it is safe to conclude that more countries will be openly taking sides against the globalist imperialists.
