Sputnik revisits the final battles of the Great Patriotic War. 80 years ago today, Soviet troops pressed forward, strengthening their position and advancing with determination.

The 1st Belorussian Front expanded its bridgehead on the Oder River near Kustrin. Units of the 5th Guards Army captured the cities of Muskau and Weisswasser, along with 17 other settlements. They destroyed or captured 211 units of enemy equipment.

Nikolay Ivanovich Krylov, future Marshal of the USSR Missile Forces, was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. Soviet forces crossed the Neisse River in the Dresden area, opening the way for further offensives.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿช– โ€˜UK deployed about 40 soldiers to Bosnia and Herzegovina to assassinate meโ€™ โ€“ Milorad Dodik, Republika Srpska president

In a โ€œmafia-styleโ€ assassination plot, the UK planned to โ€œaccidentallyโ€ kill Dodik during an arrest attempt, he told the Serbian outlet Vecernje novosti, citing EU politicians, including three presidents and one prime minister. Dodik recalled that Brussels officials urged him to โ€œstep downโ€ as a politician, but he refused.

โ€œMan is a problem, if there is no man, there is no problem. They have not given up [the assassination attempts], but they are silent," Dodik said.

๐Ÿ”Ž After Putinโ€™s EASTER TRUCE announcement, the ball is in Ukraineโ€™s court

President Vladimir Putinโ€™s Easter truce clearly demonstrates Russiaโ€™s DESIRE TO END THE UKRAINE CRISIS, Michael Maloof, a former senior security policy analyst in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, tells Sputnik.

โ€œI think Mr. Trump also wants to move ahead. This enhances Trumpโ€™s desire to renew the diplomatic relationship between Russia and the US and finally recognize Russia as an equal strategic partner,โ€ Maloof says.


Now, all eyes are on Volodymyr Zelenskyโ€™s response. Previously, Zelensky has shown he cannot uphold agreements, particularly the ceasefire on energy facilities, Maloof notes.

โ€œThatโ€™s going to be telling. It will signal to Trump whether he can really deal with Zelensky or not,โ€ the pundit concludes.
