Putin to Annex 2 Donbas Republics, Kherson, Zaporizhia Tomorrow

Putin signed a decree recognizing the occupied Ukrainian regions of Kherson and Zaporizhia as “independent territories.” The signing of the annexation papers is tomorrow.

The Kremlin has revealed when Russian President Vladimir Putin will sign treaties on the inclusion of the two Donbas republics and the self-proclaimed states in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia into the Russian Federation. The move follows referendums held in the respective territories.

RT said Putin would deliver a “voluminous speech” at the ceremonial signing.

According to the Russian propaganda outfit, the two Republics and the two self-described states asked to join the Federation. Allegedly, the vote was overwhelmingly in support.

It’s a terrible outcome and an easily predicted one.

Max Blumenthal said sardonically, “After Zelensky’s de facto call for the cleansing of ethnic Russians from Donetsk and Lugansk, his arrest of their political representatives, and the banning of their language, it’s really a mystery why they are voting the way they are in today’s referendum.”

On “Face the Nation” today, Zelensky said about Putin’s nuclear threat: “I don’t think he’s bluffing.” He then repeated his call for the US to designate Russia a “state sponsor of terrorism” even if this will “make diplomatic negotiations impossible.” Does anyone see an issue here? Michael Tracey asked Sunday.

President Zelensky went to Babin Yar, where he was filmed by the media. It’s where thousands of Jews were slaughtered by the Nazis.

He also appealed to ethnic minorities in Russia and newly conscripted young men to resist the war.

“Everyone in the world understands well what such an attempted annexation would actually mean,” Zelensky said in his nightly address.

“It will not mean what the Kremlin hopes for.

“Now I repeat for everyone in this country: Russia will not get a new territory of Ukraine,” Zelensky said. “Russia will annex itself to the catastrophe that it has brought to the occupied territory of our country.”

Secretary of State Antony Blinken condemned the referendums as an attempt to mask a “land grab” in Ukraine on Thursday.

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres told reporters on Thursday the annexation would mark a “dangerous escalation,” Reuters reported.

The Donbas republics were already effectively part of the Russian federation for many years. Their political parties can now again operate. They conducted elections in 2014 and 2018 which were not internationally recognized. This election is not a new thing.

Zelensky has ZERO credibility. He is a corrupt NWO agent. He banned opposition in all forms. He has become very rich for his actions. He caused the war, refused to negotiate and attain neutrality.

There are international observers. The USA 2020 elections were a disgrace. You will find the same people claiming our election was OK saying the Ukraine referendums were awful. Consider the elements of credibility. Who violated neutrality? Who banned opposition?

By the way, just by the way, today is the anniversary of the Nazi executions in Babi Yar.

And there is still no Nazism in Ukraine.

Why are we still fighting the USSR Cold War? This is a regional, European Issue and the Traitor Joe Administration has taken America to the brink of World War just to hide the corruption of his Family and a his Political Friends. Exactly what were these people doing in Ukraine that they had to steal an election and bring the Nation to the brink of World War for? What did Rudy Giuliani and President Trump find out in Ukraine that the Government had to recover from Mar-a-Lago? Was there an investigation of Hunter Biden? What are we going to find out after the 2022 Election?

Ukraine as been a hot potato since before the fall of the USSR, the home of Chernobyl and the Woodpecker Radar. What secrets are hidden in Ukraine? What is in Kyiv’s underground tunnels? What was really going on in Ukraine Bio Labs? What was the destruction of all the Criminal Documents in Ukraine by the Ukraine Government about? Who were the criminals? Who was being Blackmailed? What was with the US Cyber Warfare efforts in Ukraine? What was going on in Ukraine’s underground economy, i.e. money laundering? Another aspect of the move on Ukraine was that the Ukraine had spies in Russia stealing technology and selling it to China.

There is also a long US history with Nazi’s in Ukraine going back to WWII. It is said that these Nazi’s were instrumental in getting some key German Scientist to America at the end of WWII and Intelligence services have had close relations with these people since to gather Intel on the USSR and Russia. Ukraine has had it’s fingers in everyone’s pie and so has many friends of convenience, but overall more enemies. The Secrets in Ukraine makes a lot of Nations nervous. The secrets in Ukraine definitely makes the Biden Crime Family nervous!
