Russian Forces Make Rapid Gains in Key Donbas City

Posted by: John Phoenix by Kyle Anzalone  Map via South Front Ukrainian forces are quickly losing territory and are nearly encircled in Pokrovsk.  The nearly two-year-long battle appears to be nearing its end. The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said on Tuesday that Russian forces had reached the central, northern, and northeastern regions of the city. Pokrovsk is considered pivotal to Ukrainian defenses in the Donbas region. South Front reports Russian forces are tightening the encirclement of Ukrainian forces near the city center, and Kiev’s troops east of the city have retreated. “Unfortunately, everything is sad in the Pokrovsk direction,” wrote a Ukrainian drone unit calling itself Peaky Blinders on the messaging app Telegram. “The int...

It’s cold in Alaska – Zelensky’s invite gets lost in the post

Posted by: John Phoenix The worst outcome that ‘president’ Zelensky and his camp followers in Britain, France, Germany and Poland have most feared in the latest talks aimed at ending the proxy war unfolding in Ukraine, the one scenario that has plagued this gentry in every waking moment and poisoned their dreams every night, has just happened. It is now official: Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin met in Alaska for talks, and Volodymr Zelensky was emphatically not invited. Putin was able to negotiate with the organ grinder, not the monkey. Zelensky’s greatest fear, that Trump might ‘make a deal’ behind his back, is being fully realised. As we go to press, Zelensky was on his way to the White House perhaps having at last got it into his thick skull that the West is running short of...

As Nato’s war fails in Ukraine, the imperialists’ problems are getting worse

Posted by: John Phoenix The west’s propaganda war is also coming unstuck as looming defeat creates dissension in the aggressors’ ranks. Proletarian writers Subscribe to our  channel The imminent fall of Konstantinovka is likely to spark a chain reaction, leading inexorably to the complete liberation of Donetsk from Nato’s fascist proxies. As the diplomatic wrangling over Ukraine continues, facts on the ground are being made on multiple front lines as the liberation forces maintain their steady advance. The most intense pressure from the Russian army is currently directed at the city of Konstantinovka. The Ukrainian troops who are supposed to be defending the city are now almost completely surrounded by the Russians, who have established a ten-mile-deep&nb...

Ukraine: Pax Optima Rerum

Posted By John Phoenix Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair Peace is the highest good – every day that passes, more soldiers and civilians are killed in the Ukrainian war.  It is estimated that more than a million persons have lost their lives in this senseless war, which must be brought to an end as early as possible. This can be done with a modicum of common sense and professionalism. The war should never have started, and it could have been ended in March 2022, if Ukraine had not reneged on the compromise negotiated by Turkish President Erdogan in Istanbul.  There were many opportunities to sit down and discuss terms for a ceasefire, but the US, Europe and Ukraine insisted that “Putin must lose”.  Thus, the many blueprints for peace issued by the Af...

Zelensky Openly Calls for Regime Change in Russia

Posted by: John Phoenix Regime change in Moscow is a long-standing Western ambition, but Putin’s massive popular support makes it impossible. The illegitimate Ukrainian government is making increasingly bold statements—now openly calling for regime change in Russia. Volodymyr Zelensky has stated that changing the political system in Moscow is the best way to stop so-called “Russian aggression” and has publicly called on Western partners to push for an end to the current Russian administration. Zelensky’s comments came during a conference marking the 50th anniversary of the Helsinki Accords. He said it is vital that Russia be pressured internationally not only to withdraw its troops from Ukraine, but also to prevent Moscow from deciding to “invade” othe...

A Chance for Peace

By: Israel Shamir  Russia has found itself in the difficult position of Thor. The Nordic god Thor, in the Castle of Utgaard, was requested to drink up a great horn filled with mead. He drank and he drank but he could not empty the horn – it turned out that it was connected to the sea. Likewise, Putin was pushed into a fight with Russia’s sister republic of Ukraine, but he promptly discovered that the Ukraine is connected to all the armies and industries of the united West. Mind you, the Ukraine alone was quite formidable, with its 50 million inhabitants and heavy industry. The military might of the whole Soviet Union was largely concentrated into the westernmost part of the country. Against the endless support of the NATO bloc, Russia quickly found itself in dire straits. Putin res...

Russia’s victory in Kursk

Posted by: John Phoenix Report on the liberation of Kursk by the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov to Comrade Supreme Commander-in-Chief, President Vladimir Putin. Valery Gerasimov: Today, we liberated the village of Gornal, the last populated area in the Kursk Region, from Ukrainian units. Units of the 22nd Motor Rifle Regiment of the 72nd Division, the 810th and 40th Separate Marine Brigades, the 177th Separate Marine Regiment and the 1427th Motor Rifle Regiment have particularly distinguished themselves in this regard. The defeat of the armed formations of the Ukrainian armed forces that invaded the Kursk Region has thus been completed. The plans of the Kiev regime to create a so-called strategic bridgehead and disrupt our ...

Ukraine war – approaching the end game.

Posted by: John Phoenix The crushing defeat of the West’s proxy forces in Ukraine has kicked the door open to an eventual possible diplomatic solution to the immediate conflict, one that addresses Russia’s legitimate security concerns (namely the aggressive expansion of Nato up to Russia’s borders), advances the denazification of Ukrainian society, and guarantees measures to prevent any future imperialist meddling in the region. No such positive outcome is guaranteed, or is even likely, but at the least the unceremonious dumping of both Brussels and Kiev from the talks draws a clear line dividing the current negotiations from the mendacious travesty of the Minsk process whose sole purpose was to string Russia along whilst Kiev replenished its forces, as was freely attested to b...

NATO chief fears Trump-Zelensky conflict could derail summit – NYT

Posted by: John Phoenix Mark Rutte is reportedly hoping to keep any meeting between the two “short and sweet” NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte © Getty Images / Omar Havana NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte fears that tensions between US President Donald Trump and Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky could undermine the bloc’s upcoming summit in the Netherlands, The New York Times reported on Monday.

The NATO summit, set for June 24–25 in The Hague, is expected to focus on accelerating militarization and Ukraine’s possible membership. According to the New York ...
