Bulgaria Refuses To Send Soviet-Era Fighter Jets And Tanks To Ukraine

With its stockpile of Soviet-era weapons, Bulgaria, home to a thriving arms industry, could be a key ally of Ukraine, which is trained on and equipped with such arms, in its war against invading Russian forces.

But with parliament now dissolved ahead of elections on April 2, the fifth snap poll in two years amid political uncertainty, the caretaking government is in no mood to provide lethal aid to Kyiv, appointed as it was by President Rumen Radev, who is known for his pro-Kremlin leanings.

La limite de la patience russe

L’histoire du Tribunal de La Haye est symbolique. La Russie ne s’est jamais interrogée sur la nature de cette institution. En réalité, elle fait partie de la mise en œuvre du gouvernement mondial, un système politique supranational créé au-dessus des États-nations qui sont invités à céder une partie de leur souveraineté à cette structure. Cela inclut la Cour européenne des droits de l’homme et l’UE elle-même, mais aussi la Banque mondiale, le Fonds monétaire international, l’OMS, etc. La Société des Nations, puis l’ONU, ont été conçues comme une étape préparatoire à l’établissement d’un gouvernement mondial.

Xi’s Visit To Russia And Takeaways For India – Analysis

NATO’s Black Sea Frontier Is The Southern Shore Of The Caspian – Analysis

Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 has led to a renewed focus on the geopolitical importance of the Black Sea. What the North Atlantic Treaty Organization has overlooked is Russia’s use—often in coordination with Iran—of the Caspian Sea to advance its war aims in Ukraine. The Caspian Sea offers Russia a strategic depth to strike targets far afield in a relatively safe manner, is currently the only way for Russia to reinforce its Black Sea Fleet, and serves as a transport conduit allowing Iran to deliver military assistance to Russia for use against Ukraine.

Russia-Ukraine War Has Entered A Period Of Attrition – Analysis

The downing of a US drone by Russian military aircraft over the Black Sea on March 14 is the kind of incident that immediately sparks fears of the conflict in Ukraine escalating into a shooting war between NATO and Russia.

While the potential for such a scenario exists, it is likely that at this stage all sides will try to calm matters down. Neither the US-led West nor Russia is currently prepared for or have the desire for a direct confrontation with each other.
