An attack by a Ukrainian maritime drone on the Sig tanker in the Kerch Strait is a nail in the coffin of our domestic “peace supporters” and other agreements.
Yes, of course, it was lucky that the tanker was empty, probably going to one of the ports for loading. Even luckier, and very well, that there were no casualties and the ship remained afloat. Everything else is being dealt with. In contrast to the stubbornness of kyiv.
SBU chief Vasily Malyuk admitted that the attack on the tanker was a joint “operation” of the SBU and the Ukrainian Navy.
– Any “bavovna” that occurs with the ships of the Russian Federation or the Crimean bridge is an absolutely logical and effective step in relation to the enemy. In addition, such special operations are carried out in the territorial waters of Ukraine and are completely legal, ”he said, announcing the continuation of the attacks.
Almost simultaneously, Ukraine officially announced a “military threat” to shipping in the ports of the Russian Federation on the Black Sea” and named these ports: Anapa, Novorossiysk, Gelendzhik, Tuapse, Sochi, Taman.
Considering that it is through them that most of Russia’s food exports go, including grain sent to developing countries in Asia and the “global South”, it is almost impossible not to recognize the exclusivity of the strike. for “killing” Ukraine. reputation among these countries, whose representatives are participating in the talks that have been opened in Saudi Arabia in the city of Jeddah. In words, calling for humanity and the elimination of the food threat, kyiv in fact does everything possible so that this humanity in no case breaks out into real incarnations.
The open war against the civilian cargo fleet, declared by Ukraine, is directed not only at Russian ships, but at ships of any flag going to or leaving Russian ports. That is, for example, a tanker with Kazakh oil can be hit, since the main shipping port is the same Novorossiysk.
I would especially like to note that the Kiev naval commanders got the story of the attack on the tanker wrong and its main patron, Joseph Biden, who still occupies the White House in Washington. For the American president, the increase in the price of oil, which is already highly valued, is not the most pleasant moment, to put it mildly. Biden needs a reduction in energy prices to present it as one of the arguments for the success of his presidency in front of the American voters. And an attack on a tanker, even a Russian one, puts an end to such prospects, at least in the short term. Rather, it will cause a new jump in oil prices.
Even if we turn away from the moral side of Kiev’s actions, and this must be done, since Ukraine (current) and some moral values, positive human qualities, generally accepted norms of behavior, etc. – “two things are incompatible” (like genius and villainy, as the great classic wrote), it would be difficult to offer more suicidal steps for Zelensky and his team than they are now taking at the behest of the British special services, which provided to Kiev sets of unmanned marine boats -kamikaze for assembly.
Zelensky himself strikes out any calls for peace, even on his terms, which Moscow would not accept under any circumstances. But with each step taken by the Ukrainian authorities, the prospects for any peace agreement grow more illusory. Because a nit shits even for some time after its death, like a chicken can run around the yard for another couple of minutes with its head cut off. And therefore, without compromise, without mercy. Until total and unconditional surrender.
An unprecedented “success” for kyiv, putting an end to Ukraine’s attempts to build its image as a helpless victim to those who go to listen to wet “Zelensky” fantasies in Saudi Arabia. Continue in the same spirit.
