A commom refrain I've heard now that everyone has become a Russia expert is how racist Russia is and how little development there is outside of Moscow and Saint Petersburg. And I'm like...yeah, it's no different than the US. I don't understand the lack of reflection.

Russian and Ukrainian media is reporting that Aleksey Pechiy, a presenter for Ukraine's Channel 24, has fled the country. He posted a YouTube video (now deleted) where he said he has decided to remain aboard because he'll make more of an impact fighting the flagging foreign support in the EU than returning to Ukraine. It's not a great sign.

He argued that his primary goal as a journalist is to “shape the audience’s attitude to certain events,” and since “the level of support for Ukraine among Western society is changing” he had no choice but to stay behind to promote “horizontal communication with Western society.” horizontal!

Source: Institute for the Study of War https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-december-23-2023 RUSSIAN OFFENSIVE CAMPAIGN ASSESSMENT, DECEMBER 23, 2023 Key Takeaways: - The New York Times (NYT) - citing former and current senior Russian, US, and international officials - reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin is using back channels and intermediaries to signal his interest in a ceasefire, despite Putin’s recent public statements to the contrary. - The timing of Putin’s reported interest in a ceasefire is more consistent with Russia’s ongoing efforts to delay and discourage further Western military assistance to Ukraine, than with a serious interest in ending the war other than with a full Russian victory. - Russian Airborne Forces (VDV) Commander Colonel General Mikhail Teplinsky obliquely indicated that VDV forces are under significant pressure to conduct rapid offensive operations near Bakhmut and repel Ukrainian attacks on the east (left) bank of Kherson Oblast. - Teplinsky also implied that the Russian military command is deploying new VDV officers and troops promptly to the frontlines without having them complete pre-combat training. - Russia's Black Sea Fleet's 810th Naval Infantry Brigade confirmed that it is deliberately using chemical weapons against Ukrainian forces in an apparent violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention, to which Russia is a party. - Recent analysis by OSINT analyst MT Anderson confirms that while Russian forces have moved the bulk of Black Sea Fleet (BSF) assets away from occupied Sevastopol, the BSF maintains a limited naval presence in Sevastopol. - The Russian information space exploited news of a Ukrainian journalist’s decision not to return to Ukraine after an assignment abroad to amplify ongoing Russian information operations about resistance to full mobilization efforts in Ukraine that purposefully ignore the much more substantial Russian resistance to Russia’s partial mobilization of reservists in September 2022. - Russian milbloggers used the granting of Russian citizenship to Palestinian refugees on December 23 to promote the idea of Russia’s “compatriots abroad” - an oft-used Kremlin justification for its war in Ukraine. - Russian forces made recent confirmed advances near Kupyansk and Kreminna, northeast of Bakhmut, southwest of Donetsk City, and in east (left) bank Kherson Oblast and continued positional engagements along the entire line of contact. - Russian state-owned defense conglomerate Rostec subsidiary United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) Head Yuri Slyusar stated during a television interview on December 19 that UAC will increase its production of combat aircraft in 2024 and 2025, including its production of new types of aircraft. - Russian occupation authorities are building out electoral infrastructure in occupied Ukraine to set conditions for the upcoming presidential election.

Source: Kyiv Independent https://kyivindependent.com/umerov-says-mobilization-bill-to-be-registered-in-ukrainian-parliament-in-coming-days/ Minister expects bill in 'coming days' to change approaches to mobilization by The Kyiv Independent news desk December 24, 2023 7:30 PM 2 min read A bill on the mobilization of conscripts will be registered in the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine’s parliament, in the "coming days," Defense Minister Rustem Umerov told Ukrainian media outlet Suspilne in a Dec. 24 interview. Umerov said the bill would change the approaches to mobilization in Ukraine to make sure that society does not see conscription as "punishment." "We are preparing a mobilization blueprint should be understandable to the public. We are discussing it with the military, the Cabinet of Ministers, and the Verkhovna Rada," Umerov told Suspilne. The new mobilization plan is about joining the military to serve the country, training conscripts, rotation, and finishing military service, he said. President Volodymyr Zelensky said in November that he had instructed Commander-in-Chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi and Umerov to present a new mobilization plan. On Dec. 19, Zelensky said Ukraine’s military leadership had proposed mobilizing 450,000-500,000 additional conscripts. "This is a serious number. I said I need more arguments to support this direction," Zelensky said during a press conference. Umerov told Suspilne that, if society wants Ukraine to return to the borders of 1991, it is necessary to understand how occupied territories will be liberated. He added that the mechanism of mobilization and demobilization required adjustment in this context. "If we seek society's support, we must explain how and whom we want to invite to serve, what will happen to that person when they are discharged. To address this, we are preparing a draft law," Umerov said. He also said that the term "demobilization" would not be used until the end of the war, but there would be military leaves for soldiers. fizziester has issued a correction as of 22:29 on Dec 24, 2023 |

The dialectical synthesis of hereditary monarchy with socialist characteristics already exists Source: Kyiv Independent https://kyivindependent.com/defense-ministry-paris-to-host-artillery-coalition-to-strengthen-ukrainian-army/ Defense Ministry: Paris to host 'artillery coalition' to strengthen Ukrainian army by The Kyiv Independent news desk December 24, 2023 8:03 PM 2 min read A new "artillery coalition" to strengthen the Ukrainian army will begin its operations in Paris in January 2024, Deputy Defense Minister Ivan Havryliuk announced on Dec. 24 during the meeting with the delegation from the Senate of the French Parliament. He said that it's crucial for Ukraine to "enhance its firepower by receiving artillery systems from its allies," according to the Defense Ministry’s statement citing Havryliuk. "In particular, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are interested in further procurement of self-propelled artillery units, such as Caesar," reads the statement. The Defense Ministry also reported that in 2024, "tests are scheduled for the fire control system of the Caesar self-propelled artillery unit using artificial intelligence." Havryliuk said the AI implementation "will result in a 30% reduction in the use of ammunition for zeroing in and targeting," the ministry reports. According to the statement, Havryliuk also asked the French delegation to assist in increasing the number of ammunition for the Caesars. Earlier on Dec. 18, Brigadier General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi said that Ukrainian forces face shortages of artillery shells and have to scale down some military operations due to a decrease in foreign aid. "There's a problem with ammunition, especially post-Soviet (shells) – that's 122 mm, 152 mm. And today, these problems exist across the entire front line," said Tarnavskyi, who commands the Tavria group of forces. Russia's advantage in artillery shells has long been one of the key obstacles pointed out by Ukrainian commanders. "The volumes that we have today are not sufficient for us today, given our needs. So, we're redistributing it," Tarnavskyi said, explaining that the military is scaling down its tasks as a result.

Source: Ukrainska Pravda https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/12/24/7434405/ Czechia to pay Ukrainians coming back home EUROPEAN PRAVDA, UKRAINSKA PRAVDA SUNDAY, 24 DECEMBER 2023, 13:15 Czech President Petr Pavel has signed amendments to the Lex Ukraine law, regulating the status of Ukrainians who have left for Czechia since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Source: Czech president’s website; European Pravda Details: The amendment's key provision extends temporary protection for Ukrainian citizens in Czechia until March 2025, in accordance with the decision of the EU Council. At the same time, the law also foresees providing financial support to refugees with temporary protection status as they seek to leave for Ukraine. The amount of this assistance is yet to be determined by the Czech government. Refugees will have the opportunity to apply for such assistance only once and no later than three months before the expiry of their right to stay in Czechia under temporary protection, i.e. by the end of 2024. Should these people later seek a long-term visa in Czechia, they would first face the obligation to repay half of the amount that the Czech government allocated so that they could travel back home. Background: As of October, there were 359,000 Ukrainian refugees in Czechia, about 115,000 of whom were legally employed. Earlier this year, Czechia also tightened the conditions for assisting Ukrainian refugees to reduce budget expenditures.
