PLAYING PEACEMAKER, MACRON SENT FRENCH TO DEATHS IN UKRAINE.

Support SouthFront


Amid the drastic escalation of dangerous military conflicts, the French president is trying to play the role of global peacekeeper. One of his small goals on the way to saving the world is to stop all wars during the Olympics in Paris. Macron in all modesty began working on the Olympic truce, asking for help from his “partners”, including China. Beijing has yet to respond to Macron’s ambitions; but Russian President Putin had previously made it clear to his French counterpart: Moscow is ready to consider any peace initiative, but would proceed only from its own interests and from the current situation at the front.

Despite all Paris’s attempts pull the wool over the public’s eyes, his actions are not based on the basic principles of peace and friendships embedded in the idea of the Olympic Games. Macron is only pursuing his political goals, while his initiatives, on the contrary, are aimed at influencing the situation on the battlefields.

While the International Olympic Committee blatantly discriminates against Russian athletes, Paris has stated that Russians and Belarusians are not welcome.

In addition to the political field, Macron’s initiatives may have a direct impact on the situation on the Ukrainian frontlines. The Ukrainian army urgently needs a break to regroup troops, strengthen defense, and tighten reserves.

Macron’s peacekeeper game has no chance of helping to resolve armed conflicts, but can only briefly bring solace his French audience.

Meanwhile, Russian missiles are bringing an end to the war in Ukraine much faster. In particular, with precise strikes against the French military, who have come to the aid of the Kiev militants. While Macron is talking about peace, his decision to send forces to Ukraine can only prolong the fighting and even escalate the great European war.

Just a few days ago, reports from the Ukrainian frontlines claimed that the first groups of French militants from the 3rd Infantry Regiment of the French Foreign Legion have arrived in the city of Slavyansk in the DPR. The unit includes specialists in artillery reconnaissance, as well as an engineering group specialized in field fortifications. The French were reportedly stationed at the location of one of the Ukrainian brigades.

On the morning of April 15, a large explosion thundered in Slavyansk. According to claims from the local guerrilla movement, the precision Russian strike destroyed the location of the Ukrainian gunners, where the French could also have been stationed.

At the moment, only the training of the French special battalion tactical group consisting of about 1,500 servicemen from the Foreign Legion and regular troops of the French Army have been officially confirmed. Reports on the deployment of the French military on the frontlines can be reliably confirmed when Paris will no longer be able to hide the obituaries from Ukraine.

REAR ON FIRE: SABOTAGE ATTACKS TARGET MILITARY FACILITIES ACROSS UKRAINE.

Support SouthFront


Pro-Russian guerrilla fighters continue operations against the Ukrainian military in the Ukrainian rear regions. Amid the ongoing Russian advance on the frontlines, the activities of pro-Russian saboteurs inspired by the Russian military successes increase.

On April 14 alone, several attacks on the facilities used by the Ukrainian military were reported in the southern Odessa and eastern Dnepropetrovsk regions.

In the afternoon, one of the guerrilla groups set fire to the cabin substation near the railway road near the Dnepropetrovsk city. The city of Dnepropetrovsk is one of the main logistic hubs in Ukraine, from where the military equipment is sent both to the southern and eastern frontlines. Any damage to the railway infrastructure, which could temporarily thwart the constant military supplies, may have an impact on the ongoing battles.

The souther region of Odessa is another important logistic hub of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There are several sea nd river ports, where NATO continues military supplies for the Ukrainian army. There are a lot of important warehouses and industrial facilities, infrastructure which serve the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to the local reports, members of the pro-Russian guerrilla movement destroyed the special engineering equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the warehouse with special equipment of the Ukrainian engineering troops in the city of Odessa. The saboteurs set fire to the Ukrainian military facilities located in the Kalinovsky district of the city. The destroyed facilities are located near the railway road, from where the equipment was supposed to be sent to the frontlines.


Another sabotage attack targeted an energy substation in the Odessa region. The attackers set fire to the station. The energy infrastructure in the Odessa region is already heavily damaged by the constant Russian precision missile and drone strikes. The entire energy system in the region is overloaded and sabotage attacks on even small substations inflict heavy damage to the energy supplies in the entire region.

This is far from the first attacks of pro-Russian guerrilla fighters in the Odessa region. More sabotage attacks are often launched in the southern, central and eastern parts of the country, where a large part of the population have pro-Russian views.

cut off from its finances for nearly a month??

A 20-year-old children’s charity that shut down after an error by Barclays led to its account being closed was offered only £250 in compensation by the bank. JusB, which worked with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, initially was offered the sum along with an apology for a mistake that resulted in the charity being cut off from its finances for nearly a month last year. This offer was increased later to £525, which Sir Robert Neill, the charity’s constituency MP, called “trivial” and said “bears no relation to the harm done”. - The Times
