Windows to Russia🇺🇦The Kiev regime exchanges agricultural products for foreign weapons.
This was told at a special briefing in the Russian Defense Ministry.
Every day, the Ukrainian authorities take grain, corn, oil crops and animals to Romania by cars, trains and bazhras.
Foreign weapons and ammunition are coming back from Europe to Ukraine.
“Kiev gives away agricultural products with an acute shortage of food for its own population and the absence of grain for sowing,” the defense ministry noted.

The Russian Federation’s Joint Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response, in co-operation with the authorised federal executive authorities, continues to carefully record the continuing egregious facts of the inhumane treatment of civilians by the authorities in Kiev:
in Nikolaev, territorial defence fighters carry out punitive raids in order to check local residents for signs of pro-Russian views and facts of passing any information to Russian servicemen and representatives of the people’s militia of Donbass. The slightest suspicion is triggered by the phone’s call history and SMS messages to Russian numbers, correspondence in various messengers condemning the current Ukrainian authorities, subscriptions to Russian channels in social networks, and the Telegram app installed on the smartphones. All suspects are detained and tortured, threatened with being handed over to the Security Service of Ukraine, as well as with physical violence against relatives. In the course of these security raids, the nationalists forcibly seize valuable property and foodstuffs, ostensibly for the needs of territorial defence, as well as forcing them to set up strongholds and blockposts. Dozens of the detainees never returned home, and their fate is still unknown;
in Marganets in Dnepropetrovsk Region, Ukrainian militants have mined the dam of the Nikolaev reservoir, which the nationalists themselves are planning to blow up, blaming “allegedly advancing units of Russian troops”. In the case of an explosion the town itself and a number of other settlements with a total population of over 45,000 would be in the potential flood zone. In addition, after the water leaves, the entire flooded area the population’s life support system (sewage, water supply, water treatment facilities with chemical tanks) will be damaged, which will lead to a sharp deterioration of the sanitary and epidemiological situation and the spread of infectious diseases in Nikopolskiy district. The current situation is aggravated by inaccessible medical supplies, lack of medicines, including life-saving ones. This fact is clear evidence of the continuing inhumane attitude of the Kiev authorities towards their own people.
The official Kiev continues to prepare monstrous and ruthless provocations with massacres of civilians to further incriminate the Russian Armed Forces. To this end, AFU units have deployed artillery mounts near Tsupovka, Kharkov Region, to deliver a fire strike during the mass evacuation of civilians through a humanitarian corridor from Kharkov to the west, which was organized by the Ukrainian side. The Russian side has reliably established that the neo-Nazis are planning to carry out this monstrous bloody action in the near future.
In addition, according to sources of objective information, on April 29, 2022, civilians were evacuated in Orekhovo district of Zaporozhye region, after which AFU units launched a missile attack on a residential building located on Bezymyannyi Lane. At the same time, this fabricated fact is already being used, in the manner typical of the current Kiev authorities, to discredit the Russian Armed Forces, to whom this hastily prepared provocation is “attributed”.
We warn the so-called civilised west in advance that this and other similar bloody fakes on the part of the Kiev authorities about alleged “Russian atrocities” are soon to be widely circulated in the media and on internet resources. Most of the world’s media ignore the obvious facts about the atrocities of the Ukrainian nationalists and are not concerned with the real state of affairs, but with the implementation of a policy of further fomenting anti-Russian hysteria around the obviously fabricated events.
According to available information Ukrainian authorities have reportedly organised on a daily basis mass exports of grain, maize, oil crops and farm animals from the port of Izmail along the Danube to Romania by road and rail and by barge. Some 20 million tonnes have been exported so far. Foreign weapons and ammunition are brought into Ukraine by a reverse route in exchange for these agricultural products. All this is taking place against an acute shortage of foodstuffs for the domestic population, as well as a lack of grain crops in most regions of Ukraine for the spring sowing campaign.
Despite all the difficulties and obstacles imposed by the Ukrainian side, over the past day, without the participation of Kiev, 18,849 people were evacuated from dangerous areas, 2,395 of them children, and in total, since the beginning of the special military operation, 1,062,692 people have already been evacuated, of which 192,688 are children. The state border of the Russian Federation was crossed by 13,663 personal vehicles including 1,999 per day.
We continue to maintain a sufficient number of comfortable buses at checkpoints to transport people to their chosen places of residence or temporary accommodation, where hot meals are provided and qualified medical and psychological assistance is provided in a timely manner.
More than 9,500 temporary accommodation centres continue to operate in the regions of the Russian Federation.
The refugees are dealt with on an individual basis and are promptly assisted with various pressing issues relating to onward accommodation, employment assistance, places for children in kindergartens and educational institutions, and the provision of entitlements to social benefits.
Over the past 24 hours, the hotline of the Interdepartmental Coordination Headquarters of the Russian Federation for Humanitarian Response, federal executive authorities, constituent entities of the Russian Federation and various NGOs received 142 requests from foreign and Ukrainian citizens to evacuate to Russia, the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, as well as to the Russian Armed Forces-controlled areas of Zaporozhye, Nikolaev, Kharkov and Kherson regions. In total there are 2,754,026 such appeals from 2,133 locations in Ukraine in the database.
Ukrainian nationalists continue to hold 90 foreign nationals from 5 countries hostage as “human shield”.
In addition, 75 foreign vessels from 17 countries remain blocked in 7 Ukrainian ports (Kherson, Nikolaev, Chernomorsk, Ochakov, Odessa, Yuzhniy and Mariupol).
The threat of shelling and high mine danger created by official Kiev in its internal waters and territorial sea prevents vessels from safely leaving the ports and reaching the open sea.
In confirmation of this, the Russian Federation is opening daily from 08:00 to 19:00 (Moscow time) a humanitarian corridor, which is a safe lane south-west of Ukraine’s territorial sea, 80 nautical miles long and 3 nautical miles wide.
Detailed information in English and Russian on the modus operandi of the maritime humanitarian corridor is broadcast daily every 15 minutes on VHF radio on 14 and 16 international channels in English and Russian.
At the same time, the Kiev authorities continue to avoid engaging with representatives of states and ship-owning companies to resolve the issue of ensuring the safe passage of foreign vessels to the assembly area.
The danger to navigation from Ukrainian mines drifting off their anchors along the coasts of Black Sea states remains.
The Russian Federation is taking a full range of comprehensive measures to ensure the safety of civilian navigation in the waters of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
Federal executive authorities, together with the subjects of the Russian Federation, various public organizations, patriotic movements, continue to accumulate humanitarian aid.
The greatest contributors to the relief effort were:
Ministry of the Russian Federation for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disasters, Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation, Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation, Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography, Federal Maritime and River Transport Agency, Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation, Federal Agency for Nationalities, Federal Agency for the Commonwealth of Independent States, Compatriots Living Abroad and International Humanitarian Cooperation;
The Republics of Bashkortostan, Buryatia, Dagestan, Crimea and Tatarstan, Altai and Krasnodar Territories, Arkhangelsk, Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, Leningrad, Moscow, Novosibirsk, Rostov, Tula regions and the city of Moscow;
among political parties and non-profit organisations: United Russia, the People’s Front All-Russian Public Movement, the All-Russian Public Organisation of Veterans “Battle Brotherhood”, the autonomous non-profit organisation for the support of humanitarian programmes “Russian Humanitarian Mission”, the All-Russian public and state organisation “Union of Russian Women”, the Almaz-Antey Military Defence Concern Joint Stock Company.
More than 23 tonnes of basic necessities and food kits, including baby food and life-saving medicines, have been prepared at collection points.
Since March 2, 16,805.9 tons of humanitarian cargo have already been delivered to Ukraine, 941 humanitarian actions have been carried out, including 8 actions in Zaporozhye region, as well as in Donetsk People’s Republic, during which 316.8 tons of basic necessities, medicines and food were transferred to the civilian population of the liberated areas.
On April 30, 10 humanitarian actions have been planned and are currently being carried out in Kharkov and Zaporozye regions, in Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, during which 320 tons of basic necessities, medicine and food will be distributed.

English after Russian letter…
Многие задаются вопросом о том, почему до сих пор сидят и саботируют любые переговоры украинские военные на окружённой Азовстали. Чем продиктованы их безумные запросы? Есть версии про тайны, которые они скрывают в подземельях. Есть про помощь, которую они дожидаются.
Но я думаю, что все немного сложнее. Надо понимать, с кем мы имеем дело. Это люди, существовавшие годами в атмосфере абсолютной безнаказанности, стоит лишь произнести волшебные слова “ради nazii” и можно всё. Их подростками вытаскивали из полиции и судов, их выменивали из плена, они выходили по “коридорам” из Иловайска и Аэропорта. Они никогда и не за что не несли ответственности, ни за уголовные преступления, ни за военные. Они даже не подвергались общественному осуждению, наоборот, становились героями Украины.
В головах сидящих на Азовстали в принципе нет ощущения, что это конец. Что не придут Ада Роговцева, Анжелина Джоли, Папа Римский и “побратимы” И не вытащат их всех оттуда с поднятыми знамёнами, и прямо на награждение. Конечно, они понимают, что каждый в отдельности может не увидеть этого момента. Но общее поражение и тем более суд над выжившими в их головах, абсолютно уверен, не укладываются. Поэтому они спокойно держат заложников и ждут. С их точки зрения все должно закончиться как и всегда. Они просто не верят в то, что может наступить конец, это противоречит всему их воспитанию и жизненному опыту последних 10 лет.

Donetsk war reporter Dmitry Astrakhan sharing his thoughts on why Azov is being so stubborn in Mariupol:
Many are wondering why the Ukrainian military at the encircled Azovstal are still sitting and sabotaging any negotiations. What motivates their frantic requests? There are theories about the secrets they are hiding in the dungeons. There are theories about the help they are waiting for.
But I think it is a little more complicated than that. We have to understand who we’re dealing with. These are people who have existed for years in an atmosphere of absolute impunity, one has only to utter the magic words “for the nation” and everything is possible. They were freed from police custody and courts as teenagers, they were traded out of captivity, they went through the “corridors” of Ilovaysk and the Airport. They were never held accountable for anything, neither criminal nor military. They were not even publicly condemned, on the contrary, they became heroes of Ukraine.
In the heads of those sitting at Azovstal, there is basically no sense that this is the end. That Ada Rogovtseva, Angelina Jolie, the Pope and their “brothers” will not come and drag them all out of there with banners raised, and straight to the award ceremony. Of course, they realize that any particular individual may not see this moment. But a general defeat, much less a trial of the survivors, is absolutely beyond their minds. So, they calmly hold the hostages and wait. From their point of view, everything must end as it always does. They simply do not believe that the end can come, it contradicts all their upbringing and life experience of the last 10 years.

Comes a bunch from Russia….enough that it is crippled without it…
We estimate that before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, U.S. bases in Europe relied on Russian fossil fuels to meet 30% of their annual energy needs. This means that American forces in Europe have been buying the energy equivalent of nearly half a million barrels of oil from Russia every year.
Another western rediculous move by the USA. Sanctions are definatly a two way street…
So NATO would not last long without fuel…
Interesting….Hmm

The struggle is already lost when we have no idea, nor even reason why, we are struggling. – kKEETON…

It is interesting to see western companies struggling with the profit losses from leaving Russia. IKEA has stated that they will open back up in Russia and many more including McDonald’s are trying to get the situation under control and get opened back up…
Good job McDonald’s, keep it up. Burger King is rocking and rolling…
Myself, I would like to see McDonald’s banned from Russia….but Russians love their McDonald’s and we will see. Words of wisdom to Russia, “McDonald’s is an undermining company against your society and they do it through their training system. Keep McDonald’s out!”
IKEA is necessary? No, you can get all the same stuff right from China and most likely at a better price and better quality. IKEA as I have said before on this blog…
So many articles on this blog about what has been happening over the years in Russia and all done by the Western Empire of Lies and Chaos…
One thing that Russians have to get through their heads is that western companies are under the wing completely of a tyrannical government in the USA and if you let them within Russia, they only benefit the USA and or the Oligarch in Russia whom is controlled by the west….they will simple put, “set up shop and undermine your countries culture and traditions to suit their needs and the needs of the western world!”
It is interesting to note that Coca-Cola is going strong in Russia and running full tilt. Coke is plentiful, whereas Pepsi, the cola that came during the USSR times, is struggling. Pepsi did not obviously expect this all to happen and did not set up itself accordingly to be optimized within Russia? But it seems that Coke is functioning fully independent of the USA mother company…
That is the key, the western companies that have stayed and or coming back, are companies that have divisions that are legally separated from the western world and are set up to be fully independent from western implications. It has been interesting to see which companies have the ability to overcome such implications that have been imposed…
I have noticed that many companies from the west simply stated that they were leaving Russia and changed the name and or still operate under the radar. Russia is a huge profit country for many western companies. Russia is a cash-cow, as per, the debt-cow that the USA has become…
Time is telling and telling in time shows that western business needs the world markets….for the USA market alone is a loss in most cases at the bottom line. It always brings to mind what my grandma would say, “If you owe someone for it? You only allowed to use it by them!”
As far as McDonald’s is concerned: as in my article below, McDonald’s was self-sufficient within Russia, years ago and they did not have to pull out. They did not nor do need the mother company to survive. In fact McDonald’s in Russia is a very profitable situation and I know all about McDonald’s…
McDonald’s did not have to leave Russia and that is that and that is what Russians need to remember about McDonald’s…
Time to turn McDonald’s into a McRuble’s…
