Members phkrause Posted March 15 Author Members Share Posted March 15 AP investigation finds Russia imposed its passports on population in Ukraine's occupied territories Russia has successfully imposed its passports on nearly the entire population of occupied Ukraine by making it impossible to survive without them, coercing hundreds of thousands of people into citizenship ahead of elections Vladimir Putin has made certain he will win, an Associated Press investigation has found. Read more. Why this matters: The process started almost immediately after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine and is now complete ahead of Russia’s elections. But accepting a passport means that men living in occupied territory can be drafted to fight against the same Ukrainian army that is trying to free them. Under international law dating to 1907, it is forbidden to force people “to swear allegiance to the hostile Power.” Additionally, every passport and birth certificate issued makes it harder for Ukraine to reclaim its lost land and children, and each new citizen allows Russia to claim a right to defend its own people against a hostile neighbor.

Members phkrause Posted March 26 Author Members Share Posted March 26 ‘Duty to warn’ guided US advance warning of the Moscow attack. Adversaries don’t always listen The “duty to warn,” which obliges officials to lean toward sharing knowledge of a dire threat if conditions allow. John Kirby, U.S. national security spokesman, however, made clear that the warning shouldn’t be seen as a breakthrough in U.S.-Russian relations or intelligence-sharing. Read more. Why this matters: The duty to warn doesn’t mean the other side has a duty to listen. That’s especially so when the other side is an adversary. Russians can regard any U.S. attempt at counterintelligence cooperation as naive and an opportunity to look for openings for political gain or to undermine U.S. intelligence-gathering, said Steven Hall, a longtime U.S. intelligence official in the former Soviet Union.

Via X Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich was detained by Russian authorities one year ago today, Axios' Sara Fischer writes. The 32-year-old was arrested on espionage charges that he, the Journal and the U.S. government vehemently deny. Why it matters: Gershkovich is the first American journalist to be arrested and held on spying charges in Russia since the Cold War. The U.S. government has been negotiating with Russia to get Gershkovich out via a prisoner swap. Efforts to release him and U.S. Marine veteran Paul Whelan, who is also being held on espionage charges, have come up short. Gershkovich's imprisonment and the government's subsequent struggles to get him out have deterred the Western press from working in Russia. More from the Journal.

Members phkrause Posted May 7 Author Members Share Posted May 7 Russia announces it will hold nuclear drills. What does this mean for the ongoing war? Russia on Monday threatened to strike British military facilities and said it would hold drills simulating the use of battlefield nuclear weapons — the first time such an exercise has been publicly announced by Moscow, and amid sharply rising tensions over comments by senior Western officials about possibly deeper involvement in the war in Ukraine. Read more. What to know: What are tactical nuclear weapons: Unlike nuclear-tipped intercontinental ballistic missiles that can destroy entire cities, tactical nuclear weapons are smaller, more discreet and less powerful weapons used against troops on the battlefield. They are also not subject to any arms control agreements between Moscow and Washington, unlike strategic weapons. How is Belarus involved: Both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Belarus’ authoritarian president, Alexander Lukashenko, said that nuclear weapons deployment to Belarus was intended to counter perceived Western threats. Russia moved some of its tactical nuclear weapons into the territory last year. What has Putin said about the weapons: Since launching the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Putin has repeatedly reminded Western nations about Moscow’s nuclear might in a bid to discourage them from increasing military support to Kyiv. Moscow’s defense doctrine envisages a nuclear response to an attack that could “threaten the very existence of the Russian state.” RELATED COVERAGE ➤ Russia warns Britain and plans nuclear drills over the West’s possible deepening role in Ukraine Putin is starting his 5th term as president, more in control of Russia than ever New US penalties against Russia target weapons development and countries aiding in sanctions evasion Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness.
