Dnipro, Tuesday morning, 19 Nov

After Sunday/Monday missile strikes power generation and distribution is now more damaged than ever before. Power in the whole country is effected, lucky areas are 4 hours off, 5 hours on, some, like parts of Odessa, Kharkiv and Zaporoshnye are still without power.

News of the lifting of strikes into Russia, even though the news is very conflicted, and frankly bizarrely contradicted often, has not been received well in Ukraine. People are furious, they understand the reality, and the ramifications for Ukrainians which will result from any strike into Russian territory. Many of us wonder what is the difference, Ukraine has been targeting Crimea, Kursk, Bryan's and Belgorod every day for 2 years, so what if a rocket can go an extra 100 km, the fact is, given Russian dominance at the front, these rockers will have to be fired 100 km further west than they were even 6 months ago.

This is just giving zelensky his desire to convert this conflict into ww3, which he believes is his inky way to survive. Unfortunately for him, just as hitler didn't survive ww2, his fate is going to be no difference.

Russia will deal with these strikes, and again, the losers will be the West, but the lives of Ukrainians will be further negatively impacted. This is the true goal of this proxy conflict. The West wants to create a hatred between Ukrainians and Russians which will serve to contain Russia, but they have it completely wrong. It is the West that are being blamed for this conflict in Ukraine now, there is a growing sense of betrayal and hatred that is growing against the West.

This will not end well for them.

PUTIN-TRUMP SUMMIT IN BUDAPEST: HEADING TOWARDS DETENTE OR A SHOWDOWN?

There is a big question of how we have got to the point where Putin and Trump have committed themselves to another summit in Budapest.

By Alexander Mercouris.

The first thing to say is that there is none of the excitement - or concern - we saw ahead of the summit in Alaska. The European media, which was in a frenzy before the Alaska summit, is playing this summit down.

The second is that the Russians seem to be much more skeptical. Not only have Putin and Lavrov been challenged by the Russian media in recent press conferences and interviews, but it seems to me that Ushakov in his briefing seemed more doubtful than before. He spoke of the call between Putin and Trump as merely being ‘quite useful’, and made no comment about warmth or ‘sincerity’ between the leaders.

It is clear that there is a tension we have not seen before.

This has caused me to read through all the various comments made since Alaska by Putin and Lavrov, going back all the way to the press conference that Putin and Trump held after...

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
