by Yurii Sheliazhenko Transcript of a presentation delivered at the International Peace Bureau’s webinar on the dangerous US/NATO/Russia/Ukraine maneuvers 5 May 2021. (Video from the webinar: webinar-discussion-about-the-dangerous-us-nato-russia-ukraine-maneuvers-2021-05-05-video/) My main point is to urge you against seeing whole problem only in the Ukraine crisis. Let’s see the big picture. War in Ukraine started in the interests of superpowers. It is a war for status quo, for a cold-war-like world. United States and Russia treat Ukraine and European Union like a chessboard … Continue reading →

by Ray McGovern Posted on April 15, 2021 President Joe Biden has now taken a waiver on the “unwavering”, full-throated support that he, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg had been giving to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ukraine: are we facing the next (big) war?

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

By Reiner Braun Nothing is harder and nothing requires more character, than to be in open opposition to its time and to say to say loudly: No. I put this quote from Kurt Tucholski at the beginning of my remarks because it is also about countering the narrative of mainstream politics and media reporting with clarification and facts. We are witnessing a massive relocation of troops and war material to the border between Ukraine and Russia as well as to … Continue reading →

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

As much as any place around the world the current situation in Ukraine could be a trigger for nuclear war. With the recent construction of US Aegis-Ashore ‘missile defense’ (MD) bases in Romania and Poland (that could also fire nuclear-capable Tomahawk cruise missiles that could reach Moscow in 10 minutes) as well as current deployment in the Black Sea of Navy Aegis destroyers with MD systems on board, it seems crucial that world citizens should have a greater understanding of … Continue reading →

Pentagon establishes air bridge to Ukraine

More deadly equipment may be on its way to Donbass [likely drones, communications devices, ammunition]

Another U.S. Air Force C-17A Globemaster military transport aircraft has recently arrived in Kiev from the Ramstein airbase in Germany.

The nature of the cargo on board the American transporter is unknown. But there is no need to guess since the U.S. military authorities have more than once stated and proved support of the Ukrainian [Nazi] forces.
