Russian dictator Vladimir Putin again accused Ukraine of not wanting to end the war. The illegitimate president stated that the Russian Federation allegedly did not refuse peace negotiations.

Points of attention

  • Putin calls the operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kursk region "an attempt to stop the advance of the Russian army."
  • It is important to understand that the Russians are actively promoting the idea of negotiations, but this can be a trap for the Ukrainian side.
  • Maxim Zhorin, deputy commander of the Third Assault Brigade, warns of a tragic end to possible negotiations with Russia.
  • Ukraine should be careful in conducting any negotiations with Russia, as the aggressor country can use it for new strikes and aggravation of the situation.

Putin once again lies about his readiness for negotiations

During an open lesson at the Kyzyl school in the Republic of Tuva, the Russian dictator said that Russia had allegedly not given up on peace talks, but first, according to Putin, it was necessary to "deal with the bandits who entered the territory of the Russian Federation."

Ukraine is not interested in ending hostilities, its authorities are afraid of losing the elections after the lifting of martial law, Putin said cynically.

In addition, Putin called the operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kursk region an attempt to stop the advance of the Russian army and declared that he would "deal with" the "bandits" in this region.

He also claimed that "Ukraine's plan to stop the offensive in Donbas failed" and that the Russian army allegedly had not had "such speed of attack" for a long time.

Deputy Commander of the Third Assault Force Zhorin predicted the most likely outcome of the negotiations between Ukraine and the Russian Federation

Deputy commander of the Third Assault Brigade, ex-commander of the Azov Regiment, Major Maksym Zhorin, stated in an interview with Online.UA that Ukraine is being systematically pushed to start negotiations with Russia, but it is important to understand that they will have catastrophic consequences.

According to Zhorin, he has the impression that Ukrainians are gradually being "moved in the direction of negotiations."

Against this background, it is important to realize that it is the Russians who really want our society to have a discussion on this issue.

Zhorin also warned that potential negotiations with Russia will most likely have a tragic ending for Ukraine. Because it is said that the aggressor country will demand a conditional break, which it will use to prepare for a new powerful strike.

But the second time will be much more difficult for us. And when there will be a second blow — after that we may not get up. This is dangerous. Therefore, I believe that there should be no negotiations today at all.

Volodymyr Degtyarev, spokesman for the 13th operational brigade of the Charter National Guard, reported that north of Kharkiv, Ukrainian soldiers are gradually pushing Russian invaders to the border.

Points of attention

  • Charter warriors have been conducting the operation since May 2024.
  • According to the spokesman, the war on this section of the front is similar to Vietnam.
  • The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has updated information on the situation on the battlefield.

Situation in Kharkiv region

What is important to understand is that the 13th operational brigade of the Charter National Guard is based north of Kharkiv — in the village of Liptsy.

That is, between Liptsy and the border, we are gradually advancing and pushing the enemy back to the border. Since May 2024, when the second attempt to attack the Kharkiv region began, the brigade was urgently transferred to this direction. And since then, meter by meter, we have been pushing the enemy back from Kharkiv, — Volodymyr Degtyarev reported.

He also noted that over the past few months, an operation has been underway during which Charter soldiers, together with related units, in particular GUR units and the 92nd Brigade, have been successfully destroying enemy forces.

According to the spokesman, the specificity of this section of the front is that there are very dense forests here, and you have to fight for every meter, because there is no permanent line, that is, trenches, trenches.

Instead, the war here now resembles Vietnam, where there are many dug holes from which the enemy has to be dug out literally one by one, — Degtyarev emphasized.

What is known about the situation on the front on January 21?

According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, during the current day, the total number of combat clashes along the entire front line reached 55.

The areas of the settlements of Mykhalchyna-Sloboda in Chernihiv region; Bila Bereza, Stepok, Fotovyzh, Pokrovka, Velyka Pysarivka, Vyntorivka in Sumy region were under enemy fire. Gremyach, Slavhorod, and Seredyna Buda were under airstrikes.

In addition, it is reported that the Russian army did not conduct offensive operations in the Kharkiv direction, but struck with anti-aircraft guns at Vovchanske Khutor.

The enemy attacked Ukrainian soldiers in the Kursk direction twice and carried out 11 air strikes, dropping 17 anti-aircraft missiles on their own lands.

Will strangle the Russian economy. Trump has already changed his position on Putin

Putin is pushing Russia to the brink
Source:  TIME

Time magazine experts have drawn attention to how new US President Donald Trump has begun to speak publicly about Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. They believe that the head of the White House has all the tools to destroy the hostile regime.

Points of attention

  • Putin is destroying Russia's economy by continuing the war against Ukraine.
  • Trump changed his position on Putin after learning what was really happening in Russia.

Putin is pushing Russia to the brink

As Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, president of the Yale University Leadership Institute, notes, the illegitimate president of the Russian Federation has reduced reinvestment in its industrial base and seized control of many private enterprises.

It was Russia's war against Ukraine that absorbed its mighty industrial power.

Russia is in real trouble, as its economy is collapsing, Putin is collapsing Russia. And more importantly, Trump's return could throw Russia's economy off a cliff, could deal a fatal blow to Putin's faltering regime, the professor believes.

Moreover, he predicts that if sanctions are applied correctly, the Russian economy will hang in the balance until Easter.

That Trump's return could end Putin's rule seemed unthinkable a few weeks ago.

Why Trump changed his attitude towards Putin

Experts believe that this happened precisely when the US president learned how weak the Russian economy had become due to the dictator's rule.

Putin is cannibalizing the productive economy to fund his war machine. If Putin loses the windfall of oil revenues that has sustained him for the past three years, then Putin's regime will almost certainly collapse.

According to analysts, the Kremlin has managed to use up its reserves for a rainy day, and Trump has all the tools at his disposal to take advantage of this.

First of all, we are talking about oil revenues as a powerful deterrent.

Trump has the opportunity to puncture Putin's propaganda balloon and strangle Russia's economy to the point of collapse if he chooses to do so.
