NP: Re: Serious news from Europe on Ukraine

[Thomas Eckhardt]

-- “If Russia invades, that means tanks and troops crossing the border
of Ukraine again, then there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2,” Mr.
Biden said. “We will bring an end to it.” --

This is blunt.

-- Orwellian: Western #media reports simply omit that this march in
#Kharkiv was organized by neo-Nazi party that was involved in Odesa
massacre and numerous other cases of violence in #Ukraine and is
civilian branch of Azov Regiment. --

Business as usual.

-- The investigation by the Ukrainian government denies that there were
any snipers in Maidan-controlled buildings despite overwhelming evidence
that they perpetrated a mass killing of protesters and police on
February 20, 2014. It is striking that almost eight years after the
massacre, which was verified by videos, testimonies, witnesses, and
forensic ballistic and medical examinations by government experts,
nobody has been arrested or convicted. Without understanding the Maidan
massacre and bringing to justice its perpetrators, it is impossible to
understand and resolve peacefully the internal and international
conflicts involving Ukraine and the dangerously escalating war in the
Donbas. --
