Belarusian leader reveals new military arrangement with Russia​

The two countries don’t want war, but are preparing to “repel any aggression,” the Belarusian leader says

Soldiers from Russia and Belarus are training to fight as a unified force, the latter's President, Alexander Lukashenko, has said amid heightened tensions with the West over the Ukraine conflict. He made his comments during Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu’s visit to Minsk on Saturday.

“Today we are preparing like a single force, a single army,” Lukashenko said, adding that instructors from both countries were training each other’s troops. “Everyone knows this. We did not hide this fact. Well, it is impossible to hide this in a modern world.”

Lukashenko insisted that both Minsk and Moscow “did not want and do not want war,” but are working together to be able to “repel any aggression.”

Defense Minister Shoigu, meanwhile, called Belarus a “trustworthy partner” for Russia during a meeting with his Belarusian counterpart Viktor Khrenin.

One of Mitt Romney's relatives was up to his or her neck in the whole Ukraine money laundering fiasco. Right in there with the crackhead, Hunter, and one of Pelosi's relatives as well. They were all using Ukraine to launder their dirty money and now they are trying to cover that all up.

Kiev seeks to prolong the military conflict​

🗣 German journalist and expert on Eastern Europe Reinhard Lauterbach claims that Kiev is trying in every possible way to prolong the conflict and avoid peace negotiations with Moscow. According to the expert, this is due to the desire of the Ukrainian leadership to extract as much profit as possible from wartime.​
"They don't want peace, because they live off the war. It supplies them with weapons and money in almost unlimited quantities. Their politicians don't care that the Ukrainians are cold and starving. Most importantly, the elite has a generator in the basement and a bank account in the Caribbean ", Lauterbach said.​

 
From the link:

A Russian commander has reportedly died after members of his unit deserted from the front line en masse.

The Insider said a recorded conversation between Sevalnev and his wife in November revealed that he had been threatened with execution because soldiers in his unit had deserted.

"Don't send people here...they want to kill everyone," he said in a phone call with his wife Lilia, according to the report.

Let's use a MSM article, by a company funded seemingly by the left, to debunk an MIC story, quoting MIC.

This MIC entity announced a USD 2 trillion hole on 2001/09/10 and according to the MSM entity you used, had a USD 37 trillion issue in 2020, well before Russian-man-bad. (link)

Seems legit.

Then there is this, https://www.politifactbias.com/

I'd rather bias towards anything coming out of Russian and reported by so-called 'alt' media than anything coming or of MSM or a leftist cesspit.

All the more, I'd rather make up my own mind than being 'told' or spoon-fed the 'facts'.

Relax and leave the fact checking to the gentle forum participant.

So, no objections to any of the statements of fact in the article (or in the quote I posted)?



Don't cancel me, bro!

Who am I to question the mighty Pentagon?

Everything they say about themselves not being involved, and everything being on-the-level in Ukraine, must be true.

Most excellent research. Great find.

Can you object to any of the statements of fact in the summary of the Russian MOD report?

Russian MOD report? *sigh* Is this a new report or the same one that's already been debunked by Russian scientists? The Russian MOD started this issue in bad faith (see link below). If they (and by proxy, you) want to convince anyone that there is merit to it, you need to produce unimpeachable evidence. Not claim that you have documents that say this or prove that without actually sharing the source evidence for independent analysis/review.

 

Like your unimpeachable Pentagon report by Politifact?

And ONE Russian biologist.

Listen, I'm tired of this pissing-contest, this is war and both sides spew untruths.

You believe what you want.

But, be more like Elon, (I hardly ever agree with him (sorry, no sauce) bit in this case.........)
