China still declining to condemn Russia
Long-time Russian ally China is still declining to condemn Russia, with its foreign ministry refusing to call Russia's action against Ukraine an "invasion".At a daily news briefing in Beijing, spokesman Wang Wenbin reiterated China's position that while it respected the territorial integrity of all countries, it also understood "Russia's legitimate concerns on security issues".
He added that China still recognised Ukraine as a legitimate state and believed the door to a political solution still had not shut in Ukraine, but did not give suggestions on how dialogue could take place.
He also did not say whether or not Beijing would recognise the self-declared breakaway republics of Donetsk and Luhansk in the east of Ukraine.
The BBC asked for a response to US President Joe Biden’s comment that “any nation which countenances Russia’s aggression in Ukraine will be stained by association”.
Wang responded that the "country whose reputation will be stained is that which interfered in other nation’s internal affairs in the name of human rights and which went on to wage wars”.
In terms of sanctions, he said that since 2011, the US had imposed more than 100 sanctions on Russia, yet they had not worked, and that sanctions would only cause suffering.
Buenos días, por decir algo. Hoy no tendré mucho tiempo hasta la tarde me temo, así que seré un pesado preguntando como va el tema cuando vuelva, lo siento de antemano
#9924 a mi no me sorprende en la IIWW mandaban a sus tropas directamente a la muerte sin importarles una mierda la verda, poco a cambiado desde entonces xD
What do we know about the fighting in Kyiv?
The Russian forces who have reportedly entered the Ukrainian capital are seemingly centred around the northern district of Obolon.The heavily residential area is just 9km north of Kyiv’s parliament and the city centre.
- Just before 10am local time, Ukraine’s Defence Ministry tweeted that enemy Russian operatives were in the area
- The defence ministry called on locals to rally and make Molotov cocktails to fight back
- Meanwhile, several videos online appear to show armoured vehicles rolling down mostly-empty roads in Obolon
- The BBC has verified that Obolon is the location seen in the videos
- There are also videos appearing to show fighting between civilians and people in military uniform
- Kyiv has also been attacked from the air, with residents taking shelter in underground railway stations
Speaking now on Radio 4, the UK's Defence Secretary Ben Wallace says that the verified assessment of the UK intelligence services is that Russia has failed on day one to take any of its objectives.
"It failed because Ukrainians fought.
"It failed because of Putin's ego thinking they'd think he was a liberator, was dashed.
"It failed because of the lethal aid that allowed [Ukrainians] to take on Russian tanks and aircraft."
Wallace continued: "They've lost about 450 personnel, the Russian armed forces. They've failed with their elite Spetsnaz to take the airport just north of Kyiv."
#9936 Son dos grupos spetsnaz del GRU formado en la segunda guerra con chechenia y estan directamente dirigidos por Rusia.
Basicamente es un grupo de elite ultra entrenados y que son putos terroristas alli donde van, no pestañean en matar civiles, perros, cabras o todo lo que se mueva.
#9947 pero como cuántos son ? Como para liderar el asalto a Kiev. Las fuerzas de elite suelen ser unos cuantos , no en plan cientos no?
No se por que me da la sensación de que el ejercito ucraniano debe poco menos que estar poniendo la alfombra roja y haciendo un hueco en las líneas con una señal gigante de "POR AQUI A KIEV".
