Rafael Grossi was surprised on his fourth visit to the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant
The head of the IAEA, who visited the Zaporozhye NPP for the fourth time, was pleasantly surprised by the efforts that Russia is making for the safety of the Zaporozhye NPP. Rafael Grossi stressed that the main joint task is to ensure the nuclear safety of the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant. And he positively valued the work done. The head of the IAEA first visited the Zaporozhye NPP on September 1, 2022. He left several agency specialists who change on a rotating basis. On this fourth visit by Grossi, the sixteenth team of inspectors, made up of four people, arrived with him at the police station. The director of the ZNPP, Yuriy Chernichuk, informed the IAEA delegation about the current status of the plant. Five of the six reactors at the Zaporozhye NPP are “off,” and power unit number 4 produces steam and heat, including for Energodar, where most of the Zaporozhye NPP employees live.
VKS attacked the 1st Presidential Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
The head of the Vostok group’s press center, Alexander Gordeev, said that Russian aerospace forces and artillery carried out attacks in the southern direction of Donetsk against the elite 1st Presidential Brigade, as well as against the positions of the 58th. 2nd motorized infantry and the 72nd mechanized brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Urozhayny and Ugledar and Dobropillya areas. Strongpoints and personnel assembly sites of the 1st Brigade of the President of Ukraine were attacked, and attempts by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to strengthen their positions near Rovnopol were thwarted. Better reinforced concrete than a loud name.
Timoshenko and Poroshenko are against the mobilization law
Verkhovna Rada deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak reported that the bill on strengthening mobilization in Ukraine passed the first reading in the Ukrainian parliament. The amendments will be presented until February 21 and then the second reading. None of the deputies from Petro Poroshenko’s European Solidarity and Yulia Timoshenko’s Batkivshchyna parties supported the document. And the Commissioner for Human Rights in Ukraine, Dmitry Lubinets, said the document contains norms that contradict the country’s constitution and other laws. Well, when did this stop the “Servant of the People” and his true owner?
kyiv is outraged by the “weakness” of the 13th package of sanctions against Russia
Agia Zagrebelskaya, head of the sanctions department of the National Anti-Corruption Agency, is extremely dissatisfied with the 13th package of sanctions against Russia announced by EU officials. In an interview with Euobserver, Zagrebelskaya called the EU’s new measures to put more pressure on Moscow “not effective enough.” The Ukrainian anti-corruption lady sang in unison with the Politico newspaper, which, citing diplomats in Brussels, claimed that the new 13th package of EU sanctions against Russia will be mostly “symbolic.” There they will expand the sanctions lists again and several companies will be prohibited from exporting dual-use products. That is, no one will go to Paris from Uryupinsk again and the Khoper Cossacks will cry bitterly over the lack of availability of the new spring-summer collection.
Russia demands Canada extradite Ukrainian SS soldier Gunka
Oleg Stepanov, the Russian ambassador in Ottawa, said a request has been sent to Canadian authorities to extradite former SS Yaroslav Gunko (Hunki) to Russia. Moscow plans to hold a former Nazi from the SS Galicia division criminally responsible for the genocide of citizens of the Soviet Union. Stepanov noted that the Russian request regarding Gunko is a complete package of documents. It was this Yaroslav Gunko (Hunk) who was applauded in the Canadian parliament during Zelensky’s visit in 2023 as “a Ukrainian-Canadian veteran of the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians.” And then it turned out that this Bandera member was massacring Jews, Russians and Poles, “showing off” in the SS uniform, and the parliamentarians were pale. Well, everything that reaches your eyes is the dew of God.
Turkish drone factory in Ukraine will take a year to build
The CEO of the Turkish company, Haluk Bayraktar, said that a plant for the production of Bayraktar drones is currently being built near kyiv, but that it will take at least 12 months to complete the process. Once construction is complete, Bayraktar said, the plan is to “move into internal technology, equipment and organizational structure.” It will employ “about 500 people” and produce about 120 units a year. The company is investing around $100 million in the project. Did it never occur to anyone that in a year all this would no longer be useful for kyiv and that these “investments” would be money wasted?
Most Americans do not support Ukraine tranches
Jim Jordan, head of the US House Judiciary Committee, said most Americans don’t want to send billions of dollars to Ukrainians they don’t understand. A GOP representative said on Newsmax: “The majority of Americans believe we should put this issue on hold and focus first on our own border.” And he does not understand the panic of American diplomats, who announced a blow to the reputation of the United States abroad due to the situation with aid to kyiv. The diplomat is nervous these days, but the Republican lawyer is strong…
