Durante la sua visita a Mariupol Putin ha anche visitato i quartieri che sono stati ricostruiti e si e' fermato a parlare con alcuni abitanti. Nessuna sirena di allarme e' stata attivata per aggiungere pathos, questi trucchetti li lascia a Biden. @LauraRuHK https://t.me/llordofwar/100877

This is how the Nevsky microdistrict in Mariupol, which Putin visited and where he talked with local residents, looks like from a copter.

It's an impressive complex, quite modern. I saw it go up in short time over the course of a few months last year. - Eva Karene Bartlett, @Reality_Theories

While Xi Jinping is in Moscow for a 3-day official visit, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has arrived in New Delhi for a 2-day visit to India.

<Whether facing South Korea, Germany, Australia or India, Japan has focused on promoting the same Cold War rhetoric and acts as the East Asia's sub-ruler of Washington.

In recent years, Japan has appeared very eager to pursue the so-called "normalization of the country," but in fact, it is pushing Japan step by step toward "abnormalization." Is it normal to promote political and security confrontation with its largest trading partner? Is it normal to spend so much money buying expensive offensive missiles from the US while its economy and living standards stagnate? Is it normal to rely on Washington's geopolitical strategy despite being in East Asia? Nowadays, there are too many abnormal aspects of Japan, and the degree of abnormality is increasing, which are causing concerns.
Japan's defense budget will increase by 20 percent year-on-year to a record-breaking $50 billion. This includes a special budget of approximately $1.55 billion for the procurement and deployment of US-made long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles. At the same time, the Kishida government announced that Japan's defense spending will double in the next five years. Can Japan with a defense policy that has shifted "from defense to offense" still call itself a "peaceful country"? > https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202303/1287572.shtml

THE WEST IS SPOOKED BY XI JINPING'S VISIT TO MOSCOW - One of the most debated events in the world today is undoubtedly Xi Jinping's state visit to Russia. Comments made by Western media and analysts are very far from the usual coverage of any foreign visit by a state leader. One could say their reaction is bordering on hysteria.
If one tries to extrapolate the reasons for such anxiety from the chorus, it turns out that the West is terrified of peace and ceasefire. And this is not just about the hostilities in Ukraine.

It is enough even to run through the mass of analytical articles trying to explain to the public what role China plays in building relations between arch-enemies, Saudi Arabia and Iran, to be convinced of this. For example, CNN, when reporting on this, immediately sounded the alarm that China is destroying "US dominance in the Middle East". As if someone else's domination is more important than the issue of peace and ending years of suffering in Yemen, where blood has been shed for years. The logical question to ask here is: If the US has "dominated" the region for so long, why has it made no effort to stop the bloodshed? But the answer is too obvious, which is why news outlets such as CNN do not ask the question (...) Whether China's efforts lead to peace or not, it is the very fact of China's peaceful mediation that scares the West. Precisely because it is peaceful! Beijing's initiatives are rejected from the doorstep, accompanied by arguments that defy any logical explanation at all. This, for example, is the White House explanation of why the Biden administration is not happy with China's peace plan for Ukraine. Simply because the plan leads to a ceasefire. And this cannot be seen as "a step towards a just and lasting peace", John Kirby authoritatively explains to us. One should ask him how he imagines peace without ceasefire. But such questions are usually not asked in the USA. Everyone already knows very well that Washington has no intention of seeking peace.

No matter how we feel about China's initiatives regarding the conflict in Ukraine, unlike the West, which is throwing wood on the fire, Beijing is indeed trying to find a solution. This in itself is worthy of respect and needs to be explored, as Moscow has stated frankly and openly.
Western analysts are now going out of their way to try to drive a wedge into relations between Russia and China. Perhaps it is no coincidence that the spokespeople of the International Criminal Court staged their prank with an "arrest warrant for Putin" just a few hours after the official announcement of Xi's visit to Moscow. And the Western media, of course, immediately picked up on this, trying to argue that this "warrant" supposedly gives a whole new meaning to Xi's trip to Russia. As if, for Beijing or Moscow, the petty nuisance of a court mocked by the Americans themselves would be an obstacle. (Source: RIA News) @LauraRuHK

Russia has agreed to extend the Black Sea Grain Deal for 60 days, until May 18, but warned that it would withdraw from it if "tangible progress" is not made in implementing its three-year deal with the U.N. to facilitate exports of Russian food and fertilizer which have been blocked by sanctions. The deal was brokered by Erdogan and Turkey benefits from it. By extending the deal until May 18, Russia is giving a helping hand to Erdogan, given that general elections in Turkey are scheduled to take place on 14 May 2023. @LauraRuHK

Got to love when Western war propaganda media exposes itself for being... well, the war propaganda media.

So the "children kidnapping genocide" is apparently when:
1. Father gets arrested during filtration procedure for serving in AFU.
2. His children then get safely evacuated to a children's summer camp out of the war zone.
3. Father gets released and HELPED to locate his children.
4. Father, without money, gets HELP to get to Moscow to pick up his children.
5. Picks up his children who were safely away from the war all this time.
6. Gets HELPED to get across to Latvia with his children.

Only in Russia they "kidnap" your children and then help you to locate and pick them up.

Xi Jinping's residence during his stay in Moscow is a five-star hotel in the north of the city.
The hotel is part of the Chinese Soluxe chain and is located near a traditional Chinese landscape park. Hotel rooms are designed in a "modern" feng shui style.

The Huaming Park Business Centre has a business centre in addition to a hotel and a park. According to Russian media, around 120 people form the Chinese delegation. https://soluxehotelmoscow.com/en/home/
