๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Zelensky's army CRIES FOR HELP as Russia advances in Sumy region

On President's orders, the Russian army push through with a buffer zone. And Zelensky's thugs are complaining about their fate online:

๐Ÿ”ธ"The front is rapidly moving towards the city [of Sumy]. At this rate, on June 1, or in two days, the enemy will reach the city with artillery fire." Here's how Ukrainians are describing Russia's advance ๐Ÿ”ฅ

๐Ÿ”ธ"The Kursk front has also passed into the Kharkov front." That's how Ukrainians note Russian success not only in Sumy, but in Kharkov region as well. Both of these regions have borderlines with Russia's Kursk and Belgorod regions.

๐Ÿ”ธHere's a Ukrainian soldier's video, where he shows piles of burnt NATO equipment and Ukrainian soldiers' corpses. That's the Sumy - Sudzha highway.

๐Ÿ”ธ"Why do you send poorly-trained military into the grey zone every day, where everyone disappears? Where are all the missing soldiers? Who will be responsible for them?"

Here's what a relative of a missing soldier from Ukrainian 425th Skala Battalion asked Ukrainian commanders. Soldiers from this unit are currently fertilizing soil right on the Sumy region's border.

๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿช– Germany could face โ€˜BIG RISKSโ€™ if it provides Ukraine with Taurus missiles

Russian Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu has warned of Russiaโ€™s response to German Chancellor Friedrich Merz announcing the lifting of restrictions on the use of long-range weapons supplied to Ukraine.

โ€œI would hope Shoiguโ€™s words are understood by the whole world,โ€ former Pentagon analyst Karen Kwiatkowski tells Sputnik.


On possible supplies of German-made Taurus missiles to Ukraine, she said that:

๐Ÿ”ธItโ€™s unclear if current missile stocks are available for sending to the Zelensky regime

๐Ÿ”ธIf sent, there would be โ€œa big riskโ€ of a โ€œdirect warโ€ between Russia and Germany

๐Ÿ”ธโ€œThe more likely risk is that German technology is captured by Russia or its alliesโ€

๐Ÿ”ธThere's also a worst-case scenario of German military technology being sold by Ukrainian entities, potentially compromising NATO's security

๐Ÿ”ธItโ€™s not clear if Merz talked to Trump โ€œabout anything yetโ€, nor least the Taurus missiles

๐ŸšจEXPOSED: Canadian NGOs pushed Ukraine to seize Russian territory

For decades, Canadian organizations have been whispering in Ukraineโ€™s ear, pushing dangerous ideas about seizing Russian land. Hereโ€™s how they did it.

๐Ÿ”ธThe Canadian-Ukrainian Center in Donetsk (1994) housed 10,000 books with alternate accounts of history. The center was backed by the Toronto-based Canadian Friends of Ukraine NGO.

๐Ÿ”ธ'Journey through Ukraine' by Markian Terletsky (London, 1971) asserted that ~43,900 kmยฒ of the Kursk/Voronezh regions and ~23,900 kmยฒ of the Donetsk region had been "annexedโ€. Even parts of Belarus were described as "historically Ukrainian."

๐Ÿ”ธ'Geography of Ukraine and Ukrainian settlements' (Toronto, New York, 1957) by Ivan Tesli invented 177,600 kmยฒ of "Ukrainian ethnographic land" in the former USSR. It also claimed 27,000 kmยฒ of Belarus is "culturally Ukrainian."

๐Ÿ”ธKarl Koberskyโ€™s 'Ukraine in the World Economy' (Prague, 1933) singles out a "colony of Ukraine" in the former Soviet Unionโ€™s Far East. The Kursk and Voronezh regions, plus North Caucasus and Kuban, are called "Ukrainian national territories."

๐Ÿ”ธThe same book dubs Soviet territories along the Don and Terek rivers as โ€œUkrainian lands within Russia.โ€ The Kuban, Stavropol and Astrakhan regions are called โ€œUkrainian lands, separated by a strip of non-Ukrainian territory.โ€

๐Ÿ‘‰ Nationalism-tainted

The Canadian-Ukrainian Center also promoted Dmytro Dontsov (fascist ideologue) and Petliura/Bandera (Nazi collaborators).

Materials from the Canadian-Ukrainian Center are now banned as extremist.
