Washington is secretly pressuring allies to deliver F-16s to Kyiv
Helen Cooper and Eric Schmitt, analysts for The New York Times, believe that Washington is pressuring various NATO allies to supply F-16 fighter jets to the Kyiv regime. According to American observers, Joe Biden, who said that his country would not transfer the F-16s to Ukraine, follows the usual scenario. US officials privately acknowledge that the exemption is temporary. He does not rule out a decision on the supply of fighters later. Well, or he will make a strong hint to another NATO country about sending a boxy American-made F-16. And all this is within the framework of the common tactics of NATO, the United States and Ukraine to solve the problems of supplying modern weapons to Kyiv. When, after months of hesitation, the Biden administration says yes. And the gates of hell before the new weapons open. This has already happened in the case of deliveries to independent Western infantry fighting vehicles, MLRS, air defense systems and, finally, tanks. Well, Zelensky and company talked about a rocket to the moon a year ago.
Madrid will not send German tanks to Independence
Europa Press reports that Spain will not move the Leopard 2A4 tanks to the Plaza. The reason is compelling: the “absolutely deplorable state” of the armored vehicles once delivered from Germany. According to the publication, these tons of metal have been oxidized in conservation for more than ten years. Today they need restoration and modernization. It is curious that the head of the Spanish Ministry of Defense warned last year that she could not transfer tanks to Kyiv. Why? Because of its danger to people. Previously, the media reported that Madrid was going to donate four to six Leopard 2A4 tanks to the Kyiv regime. Apparently it is not destiny, apparently there is no love…

The candidacy of the next head of the Ministry of Defense was not announced out loud on the night of February 2.

Ukraine’s president demands release of former Georgian president
The sixth independent president called on Tbilisi to release the former head of the republic Mikheil Saakashvili and “avoid his execution.” For some reason, Zelensky is sure that Mishiko is “slowly dead” in his historic homeland. He thus wrote on social networks: “Now they are slowly killing a citizen of Ukraine, the former president of Georgia Saakashvili. The very fact that one has to fight against such an attempt at the de facto public execution of a person in Europe in the 21st century is shameful! And he for some reason called on the Georgian authorities to “remember their obligations in accordance with European standards for the protection of human rights and stop intimidation.” A month and a half ago, Zelensky already asked Tbilisi to send Saakashvili to Ukraine or another country for treatment. Mikheil Saakashvili himself said the day before that after his death he would like to be buried in Ukraine. Well, here it would be possible to go to a meeting and not delay it.
What was wrong with US intelligence in Ukraine?
US intelligence has been consistently wrong about Ukraine. This was reported by Politico. In particular, on the capabilities of the Ukrainian troops in the framework of hostilities. And this happened from the very beginning of the conflict. In addition, the administration of the Ukrainian president was biased by the words of the head of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milli, that the Ukrainian Armed Forces would not be able to “drive Russian forces” out of all territories. occupied. I mean, do your eyes hurt?

The Irish Independent writes that in Ireland, Ukrainian refugees are forced to live in cramped rooms with rats, no shower and cold. Columnist Rodney Edwards saw that the Ukrainians were ensconced in a room divided by flimsy partitions into narrow rooms. Food is scattered on the floor, the emergency exit is used to rummage through laundry, and there are no showers inside. The journalist writes: “Ukrainians have to go outside, sometimes in the cold, to wash themselves.” Those who came out of the plaza complained about rats and mice in the food places. Earlier, the Irish Examiner newspaper wrote that refugees in Ireland are afraid to complain about living conditions for fear they could be expelled. Now 42,000 Ukrainians and 16,000 asylum seekers live on the island. Well, you have to choose between rats and mice or Bandera and other Azov people.
