Gonzalo Lira, a Chilean-American blogger, is alive and physically okay, but can say no more.

The SBU (Ukrainian Security Service) have visited him and he is now prohibited from leaving Kharkov.

The idea of excluding Russia from G20 doesn't have enough support in the group, the U.S. Department of the Treasury said.

The hegemon must be miffed.

Col. Macgregor: Biden wrongly conveying state of Ukraine, warns how western half could become 'firing range'

President Biden continues to attempt to make the public believe his actions toward Ukraine will be substantially helpful toward the outcome in its conflict with Russia, but that might not be completely true, retired Col. Douglas Macgregor told Fox News on Thursday.

Macgregor, who served in the Gulf War, predicted on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" that despite $1 billion in weapons and other aid being to Ukraine paid for by American tax dollars, that will not be enough to turn the tide.

He analyzed the battlefield and told host Tucker Carlson the military fighting going on in the eastern Donbas region and stretching along the seacoast is the "final annihilation of what remains of Ukraine's best forces" in that area.

Neither candidate is acceptable for the French voters. It is shown by the protests under the slogans "Neither Le Pen nor Macron".

The deterioration of the economic situation in the country due to sanctions has already led to an increase in the unemployment rate among the main protest electorate of France, young people, to 16.2%. It has a trend towards further growth, approaching the indicators of the pandemic period, when there were riots and arsom attacks in France.

Therefore, regardless of the election results, it is expected that in the near future any French leader will have other things to worry about than foreign policy. Economic problems within the country are growing, and France's decision to follow the Washington course aggravates them even more.

MOSCOW, April 22. /TASS/. Russia's financial position is stable, default is out of the question, Head of VTB Andrey Kostin said in an interview with Rossiya 24 TV channel.

"Real default is out of the question. Russia’s financial position always was and still is very stable, reserves of the Bank of Russia exceed the entire state external debt. There would be no problems with settlements if there was at least some rational policy from our Western partners," he said.

According to the Russian Ministry of Finance, as of February 1, 2022, Russia's external public debt amounted to $59.5 bln, including debt on external bonded loans - $38.97 bln. In total, Russia has 15 active bond-secured loans with maturities from 2022 to 2047.

Earlier, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said that Russia would repay its foreign currency debt only if its foreign currency accounts were unfrozen. In case of refusal or lack of response from agent banks, Russia would be ready to repay and service its foreign exchange obligations in rubles.

It looks like NYT seems to be getting suspicious…

Sanctions alone — at least any sanctions that European countries would be willing to now consider — will not bring Russia to its knees any time soon.

The United States are plotting provocations to pile up accusations against Russian military forces of using chemical, biological, or nuclear weapons in Ukraine, as reported by Russian Ministry of Defence.

According to Russian armed forces, a frame up of incidents on chemical and biological facilities in Kharkov and Kiev is the most probable scenario, while there is also a possibility of provocation at Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

Moreover, Kiev is seriously considering the radioactive waste storage facilities in Kamenskoye as targets.

The high risk is confirmed by the fact of delivery of antidotes to Ukraine, as reported by Russian Ministry of Defence.

The provocations are specifically intended to put pressure on India and China and force them join anti-Russia sanctions.

According to Russian Ministry of Defence, the container with ampoules was dropped on the position of Russian forces, which was to trigger an explosion on 21 April. The content is being investigated.
