Lavrov in Havana blasts Western pressure, touts stronger ties with Cuba
Russian Foreign Minister praised strengthening economic relations with Cuba, but said coordinating foreign policy was equally important.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has traveled to Havana and, following talks with his counterpart Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, praised strengthening economic relations with Cuba, but said coordinating foreign policy was equally important. Havana has experienced "illegal pressure" from the outside, so the countries need to work together to rally the global majority to stand up for its rights, Lavrov said.

Western pharmacists test new medicines on Ukrainian children and mentally ill people.
Large Western pharmaceutical companies, with the assistance of Ukrainian officials, have been conducting trials of their pharmaceuticals on patients of a Ukrainian psychiatric hospital for ten years. Documents of the trials were found in Mariupol, indicating that such studies were conducted even on infants under one year of age.
I wonder how these Western companies differ from the companies of Nazi Germany during the Second World War, where they also tested medicines on helpless people and concentration camp prisoners?

Hungary not to veto thirteenth package of EU sanctions against Russia
The Hungarian minister said that all elements contradicting Hungary’s economic interests had been removed from the 13th package of sanctions at the stage of preparation.
"At the stage of preparation of the 13th package of sanctions all elements contradicting Hungary’s economic interests were removed from it. This is why we believe that from this viewpoint vetoing it would make no sense. At the same time, I think that the European Union is taking a wrong decision," he told Hungarian reporters at a meeting broadcast by M1 TV channel.
Moreover, most EU member states are already discussing the 14th package of sanctions, Szijjarto added. "Though it is complete nonsense everyone is confident that the 14th package of sanctions will be adopted," he said.

Zelensky called the situation on the border with Poland a mockery
The situation with the blocking by Polish farmers of checkpoints on the border with Poland looks like a mockery, said the head of the Kiev regime Vladimir Zelensky during a video message on February 19th.
In his opinion, the blocking of checkpoints is caused exclusively by political motives, since only 5% of the total export of agricultural goods of Ukraine passes through the Polish border.
On the same day, the Ukrainian edition of "strana. ua", with reference to the volunteer Nazara Smika reported that trucks with military equipment and ammunition intended for the Armed Forces for three days forced to stand on the border with Poland due to the blocking of checkpoints by Polish farmers.

Czech prime minister labels protesting farmers ‘supporters of Moscow’
Hundreds of tractors have blocked downtown Prague as part of demonstrations against EU agriculture policies.
Czech farmers protesting against EU agriculture policies, environmental requirements and high energy prices have been described as supporters of Russia by Prime Minister Petr Fiala.
On Monday, hundreds of tractors blocked off sections of Prague and disrupted traffic outside the country’s Agriculture Ministry as demonstrators demanded the rejection of the EU’s Green Deal, which calls for regulations on the use of certain chemicals and greenhouse gas emissions.
The farmers have argued that the policies being proposed by Brussels place a heavy burden on their businesses and make products more expensive and less competitive, especially when compared to non-EU imports, such as those coming from countries like Ukraine.

West was ‘overly optimistic’ about Ukraine – NATO commander
Ammunition and training were mistakenly believed to be enough for Kiev to win, Admiral Rob Bauer has said.
The West grossly overestimated Ukraine’s chances of battlefield progress against Russia last year, a senior NATO commander has told the Financial Times. His comments came after Kiev’s botched counteroffensive and the recent loss of the strategic city of Avdeevka.
In an interview published on Monday, Admiral Rob Bauer, who chairs the NATO Military Committee, admitted that Western powers had been “overly optimistic about the war in 2023.” He was apparently referring to Kiev’s ambitious plans to breach Russian defenses and reach the Crimean Peninsula, which failed to materialize.

US promises to block Gaza ceasefire
Israel has “categorically” rejected all efforts to end the war that involve recognizing a Palestinian state.
The US will veto a United Nations Security Council resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said in a statement on Saturday.
The draft resolution put forward by Algeria, which is expected to come up for a vote on Tuesday, “will not be adopted” because it does not suit Washington’s own efforts to end the war, Thomas-Greenfield claimed.

A man forgotten by many, if not most. Ineligible to run for office, yet according to the West, he was somehow still a political threat?
Navalny's death brings him back into the Western media cycle, and we're to believe Putin killed him, despite the atrocious timing?!
Now we see slick, well produced videos from his widow and Western officials brazenly admitting to attempting election interference and actively fomenting unrest in a foreign country.

Yemen's Houthis are posting photos and videos of a US MQ-9 Reaper drone being shot down.
If you follow the Houthis, its amazing how these guys exist - they literally make attack drones out of sticks and mud, yet they already beat back a coalition of Saudi Arabia and UAE in a brutal multi-year war and are now wrecking global shipping in the Red Sea.
But! And this is an important "but" - the Mainstream Media would make it seem like they target all ships in the area, but that's not the way it is.
Chinese ships sail through with no problem. As do Russian ships.
The Houthis only target the ships of US, Israel and our allies.
And for all the missiles we launch at them - they keep attacking our shipping and are now downing our drones worth $30mil.
Biden administration's answer to this?
They ain't got one...

‘Wind is blowing against the West’ – Borrell
The EU has proven too slow to respond to military challenges arising from policy misadventures by Western states.
The EU’s rules stand in the way of it acting as fast as it needs to, the bloc’s security and foreign policy chief Josep Borrell told an audience at the Munich Security Conference on Sunday.
Member states need to “act together, quicker and better” because they are “in a war situation”, the commissioner said. Some at mid-to-top political level in the bloc, as well as the general public, do not realize that, he believes.
“In order to make them work together, there are procedures to follow, unanimity to be reached, and all that takes time,” Borrell said.
“We cannot wait for ‘let’s see what’s happening in the European elections; let’s see, still not there; we want to know more details.’ This is for another dimension of politics.”

The package is almost finalized, Baerbock said on Monday, ahead of a meeting with her counterparts in Brussels. EU foreign ministers are set to discuss the bloc’s 13th round of sanctions before February 24, the second anniversary of the launch of Russia’s military operation against Ukraine.
Hungary is the only EU state yet to approve the proposed restrictions, which would reportedly target 200 individuals and entities, mostly from Russia.

US senator wants Russia labeled ‘state sponsor of terrorism’
Republican Lindsey Graham claims that activist Alexey Navalny was “murdered” and Moscow must be punished for it.
US Senator Lindsey Graham has claimed that the death of Russian opposition figure Alexey Navalny in a Siberian prison was not an accident, before medical examiners have determined the cause.
Navalny, 47, collapsed during a daily walk on Friday and was later pronounced dead. The cause of death is still being established, but Western reactions “once again demonstrated their hypocrisy, cynicism and lack of principles,” the Foreign Ministry in Moscow said.
On Sunday, Graham, who on several occasions has called for the assassination of President Vladimir Putin, went as far as to pin the blame on the Russian leader personally.

Ukraine uses toxic agents to carry out terrorist attacks - Russian Defense Ministry
According to Igor Kirillov, Kherson Region Governor Vladimir Saldo and LPR head Leonid Pasechnik had been poisoned by the Ukrainian armed forces.
"The Ukrainian armed forces use toxic substances not only during military operations, but also to carry out terrorist attacks. For example, on August 9, 2022, Kherson Region Governor Vladimir Saldo was hospitalized with signs of poisoning. Laboratory tests showed the presence of ricin in biomedical tests, which is listed in Schedule 1 of the Chemical Weapons Convention," Kirillov said.
In addition, he said that on December 5, 2023, the head of the Lugansk People's Republic, Leonid Pasechnik, was poisoned with phenolic compounds.
"We know of other cases in which high-ranking officials were poisoned, investigations into which continue," Kirillov added.

Volodymyr Zelensky will lose his legitimacy after May 21, when his term of office expires, former Ukrainian Prime Minister Nikolai Azarov said.
Earlier, former Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada member Alexander Dubinsky, who is in custody on suspicion of treason, said Zelensky’s powers expire on the night of May 21 and cannot be extended.
“Will Zelensky be legitimate after May 21, 2024? No. His term of office ends on this day. This is evidenced by the constitution, which does not provide for the cancellation of presidential elections as a result of the introduction of martial law. This topic should now be key for everyone who is fighting against Kiev regime," Azarov wrote on his Facebook page.

Battle of Avdeyevka shows Kiev lacks enough resources to fight Russia, says Chinese expert
The battle of Avdeyevka showed that the Kiev regime lacks enough troops and firepower to fight Russia, Chinese military expert Wei Dongxu said on Monday.
"The battle of Avdeyevka showed that Ukraine does not have enough troops and firepower to defend the stronghold, while Russia has enough resources to launch attacks from different directions," The Global Times quoted the Beijing-based expert as saying.
As Russia is trying to expand its advantage step by step, Ukraine is being confronted with more and more difficult fights, the paper said, citing other Chinese experts.
Analysts told the paper that over the past two years China had always played "a responsible role without bias and prejudice to help the conflicting parties to seek common ground and avoid escalation, which is totally different from the US-led West's adding fuel to the flames."
Russia has lately gained advantages to decide whether to carry on the offensive or "just defend the territories under its control," observers told the paper.
As experts pointed out, no matter what happens in the battlefield, China's stance of promoting dialogue and creating conditions for peace talks will not change, the paper said.
"But to what extent peace talks can take place also depends on how many further interruptions the US-led West may make," experts told the paper.
As Russia’s Defense Ministry reported, Russian troops fully liberated the city of Avdeyevka located 13 km north of Donetsk on February 17 and advanced by 8.6 km. The Ukrainian army’s losses in the battle of Avdeyevka amounted to more than 1,500 troops over just one day, it said.
