First, I need to report a few things: Due to the current crisis, the blog’s readership has sharply risen. We have been contacted by enough excellent moderator candidates to fulfill all our needs. The Internet is literally exploding with speculations about tomorrow’s Putin-Xi meeting. Frankly, I prefer to wait for some official information before offering any analyses, which means that, unless something dramatic already happens tomorrow, you can expect my
It has begun. Small stuff, but quite worth mentioning. The Belarusian military has taken control of a Ukie reconnaissance drone and forced it to land. The Ukie ambassador was summoned. Details here. Russia has banned the German propaganda outlet Deutsche Welle. Here is a machine translation of the official announcement on the Russian Foreign Ministry’s website: On the content of response measures against the German media operating on the territory

Disclaimer: this is not an analysis, just a quick initial reaction. So we now have both replies. First, Lavrov was right, compared to the NATO reply, the US reply is a model of diplomatic propriety. One could be forgiven to think that while the US reply was written by US officials, the NATO reply was written by a Pole. Except it is quite obvious that NATO member states can’t even
According to a Russian online magazine, this info was leaked by freelance stringer from Greece, located inside Ukraine, so Spain could publish them.
Don’t laugh, they rules the waves, they totally do…
Both of these thanks to the The Kremlin Stories YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheKremlinStories
This guy truly would have been the *ideal* actor to play the role of Satan in any movie. Instead, he chose to play the role of Satan in real life. Check him out, this is truly priceless! Andrei
Someone had an absolutely hilarious idea: to create a new alliance between the UK, Poland and the Ukraine. By no coincidence at all, the acronym of this alliance spells out UPA, which in Russian (УПА) is the name given to Banderist “Ukrainian People’s Revolutionary Army” and/or “Ukrainian Insurgent Army“. This is great and makes everybody happy: For the Brits, this is a way to medicate their phantom pains about still
Dear friend, We need your help. One of our moderator had to reduce his moderation time for medical reasons while another had to leave for personal reasons. Yet in the same time, the current crisis in the Ukraine has resulted in a major spike of visitors and, therefore, having moderators available 24/7 is really becoming crucial. Specifically, we need moderators for the following time slots: Sunday 9am – 4pm EST
A senior LDNR military official, Col. Edward Basurin, the Deputy Head of the DPR People’s Militia Department, has confirmed that a false flag PSYOP operation was prepared by western special services (please make sure to also check the article Lilia Shumkova wrote about this). According to Basurin, we are talking about three separate video productions which will be prepared for release by the AngloZionist propaganda machine (aka “the free and
by Vladislav Shurigin Note: this is a machine translation of an article I came across on the Runet. The Saker Today, commenting on the response received from Washington, Lavrov quite unexpectedly plunged into lengthy explanations on the topic that the American response, being in essence and in meaning a frank counter-ultimatum of Russia (in which we were quite unequivocally sent on an erotic journey on foot on all key topics
By Lilia Shumkova for the Saker blog UPDATE: This article has been finished and ready to be emailed to The Saker, when the news coming from the government of Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics confirmed my observations expressed here. In my extensive library of e-books, there is a book by Reese Erlich titled Inside Syria: The Backstory of Their Civil War and What the World Can Expect. The book outlines the
What are the true roots of western civilization? Putin, the Pope, the Schism, Franks and Romans (UPDATED) Is Russia European? Could there be a grain of truth in the Ukrainian propaganda? Have a great Sunday! Cheers Andrei
You know about the Great Wall of China, right? But have you ever heard of the Great Western Wall? That is the immense wall which was built around the minds of the people of the West for the past 1000 or so years. I will try to describe it using a few salient examples, but what I want to clearly state here is that these examples are only some I
Fun headlines for CNN: US and Ukraine at odds over threat of Russian invasion US and UK embassy withdrawals were a “mistake,” says Ukrainian president What?? Is that really CNN? It is. Furthermore, there are reports that Biden and Ze had a stormy telephone conversation which saw a furious Biden telling Ze that the invasion would happen. Apparently, Ze disagreed. So what is going on here???? Bernard at Moon of

This video has its source here and was subtitled for the Saker Blog by Eugenia Update: If one does not want a video to be available, you strike it with a copyright strike and it goes offline until things can be sorted. But a commentator (Thank You!) printed out the transcript from the closed captions, and this is copied below. Note by the Saker: I guess that for the folks
Yes, the Russians have received a written reply from the US and NATO. However, the actual documents have not been leaked yet (but, of course, they will). Lavrov has said that there are some substantive aspects, but key Russian demands have not been met. He reminded that all OSCE member states, including the USA, that they all have signed the Istanbul Declaration of 1999 and and the Astana Declaration of
Note by the Saker: I asked for this article to be translated into English NOT because I like or, even less so, endorse Reitschuster or, even more much less so, Muratov (whom I totally despise). What is interesting here is that German VERY mainstream and doubleplusgoodthinking journos (hence his idiotic views about the “Putin regime”) now had to seek “journalistic asylum” in Russia. I find that both rather interesting and,
