The inflation in Lithuania is driven by effects of corona, higher energy prices and the war in Ukraine. It has nothing to do with Chinas export embargo or informal secundary sanctions. And its no secret. Every such claim is followed by “western media will not report it”, insinuating this claim is then somehow validated.
Lithuania's CPI has suddenly risen sharply since August 2021. In November 2021, Lithuania's CPI has exceeded 10%. The Ukrainian war broke out at the end of February 2022.

Don't you find that the reason you said has a time problem?

Of course, the western media will certainly say that the deterioration of Lithuania's economic situation is due to the Ukrainian war, not because it tests China for the USA. In that case, the USA has no obligation to save Lithuania.

The fact is that Americans treat these small countries like a piece of toilet paper. Throw it away after you use it.
 
There’s rumors on social media that the HIMARS strike on Russian command posts have killed up to 25 Russian Generals and high ranking officers which is why Putins vehicle was seen rushing back to the Kremlin to talk with force commanders. TIFWIW

Think you are right that Ukraine hit something important and it has hurt them for sure - as the Russian have hit Kyiv in response.

 
Ukrainian govt troops have withdrawn from northern Donetsk. With the loss of northern Donetsk, Ukrainian govt troops have no possibility to hold lisichansk. The Ukrainian army should soon abandon lichansk. Then there should be the slavyansk defensive battle.


In fact, what macron said is not wrong. Now Ukraine has lost most of its veterans, and the temporary replenishment of civilians, no matter how many, is useless. Ukraine should be more rational and negotiate with Russia as soon as possible. If it continues, if the Ukrainian govt forces suffer a large-scale rout, it is likely to arouse greater ambitions of the Russians.

Ah yes, that large scale rout we have been hearing daily from pro-russians for months now.

Lets see them advance faster then a half a km a day ok?

is ukraine's government legit though? maybe don't topple a fairly elected russia leaning government and this wouldn't have happened
Yes. Zelenski won by 73% which is far more then yanukovich initially got.
I guess “faily elected” only counts for you when it is anti-west?



also lets not forget yanukovich ripped up a major election promise (closer ties to eu) which got him running to his russian friends and judged traitor to the country.

Pro Russia? We are truly neutral. The assessment of the Ukrainian battlefield was based only on the facts and my interest.
In fact, proceeding from China's interests, the peace talks between Ukraine and Russia do not conform to China's interests.

You mean that Yanukovych government that only have 48.9% of vote and only have 30% of Rada, and that is on top of allegation of election fraud? That government??

Again, you really should have stick to stuff that you know, because your "interest" does not even able to digest the entire situation.

There are no strategic interest in Sieverodonetsk other than it is the last pocket in Luhansk. The Ukrainian have been gaining a lot of ground in the south in Kherson and in the North in Kharkiv while they dump force into Sieverodonetsk and hinder the Russian advance there.

That is so evidence that they have taken Popansa (East of Lysychansk ) since early May but still not able to close that gap after 2 months of fighting. Had the Russian force focus on Popasna, they would have already be encircling the Ukrainian force between Kramatorsk and Lysychansk.
 
Yes, EU will buy Oil from GCC, North Africa & US and Coal from Australia.

What most people don't realize is that sanctions boycotting Russian oil only helped Russia. The sanctions caused a big spike in oil price, and Russia is still able to sell its oil to nations not participating in the boycott such as China and India. They also require payments for the oil to be made in Rubles. So in the end Russia got a huge increase to their petro revenues as well as a strengthened Ruble (which also lowers their cost of imports). At the same time the sanctions pummeled the west since we're paying higher oil prices. If the West really wants to punish Russia, we should drop the sanctions and incentivize our oil industry to crank up production
