Russia - The Day After Putin's Reelection

Breaking News Update on March 22 added below:




朝鲜在俄罗斯对乌克兰的战事中持续提供支援。申源湜2月曾表示,朝鲜去年7月起已陆续运送约6700个货柜至俄罗斯。他周一更新数字,表示朝鲜至今已运送7000多个货柜至俄罗斯。

North Korea continues to provide support to Russia in its war in Ukraine. [South Korean defense minister] Shin Yuan-shik said in February that North Korea had successively shipped about 6,700 containers to Russia since July last year. He updated the figures on Monday, saying that North Korea has shipped more than 7,000 containers to Russia so far.

Chinese Opinion


First of all, in Yanan’s view [亚男视界], Putin’s declaration that Russia is ready for nuclear war has sent two major signals. First, even if Russia does not launch a nuclear war, it does not mean that its nuclear weapons have completely lost their use. Putin said this to prevent NATO from "jumping over the wall" and actually sending troops to Ukraine and causing a head-on conflict with Russia. Secondly, Putin is telling the truth. If Russia is really at the point of life and death, for example, if the United States and the West end the war, then Russia will have to show off its nuclear weapons. After all, at that critical moment, the Russian side is likely to have the idea that in the worst case, they will die together. Of course, judging from the ammunition currently obtained by Russia from North Korea, Russia has not yet reached the stage of using nuclear weapons.

Secondly, the United States and the West must now be worried about the situation on the Russian-Ukrainian frontline. If, as the West says, North Korea has more artillery shells to aid Russia than the entire Europe combined, then compared to the Ukrainian army’s stretched artillery shell reserves, North Korea helping Russia will allow Russia to breathe a long sigh of relief. Next, the Russian army may fight harder and harder. What’s even more ironic is that the United States and the West hoped to defeat Russia under the guise of supporting Ukraine. However, in the end, Ukraine received less and less assistance and even risked becoming an “abandoned child”. This reflects the U.S. The selfishness of the West and their fundamental unreliability.

Ukraine - Russia Using Starlink System ?


Ukraine confirmed that Russia is using the US satellite system Starlink in its war on Ukraine. [Ukrainian News on Feb. 11, 2024]



What is Starlink?


Starlink is a constellation of satellites made by SpaceX, owned by American billionaire Elon Musk, which provides a lunar Internet connection.

SpaceX began launching Starlink satellites in 2018 and in August 2023 Starlink now has more than 5,000 small satellites produced on low Earth orbit and communicating with specific ground transceivers.

Starlink provides high-speed internet anywhere on earth, and SpaceX has explained that it has been able to deliver satellite internet service to seven continents of the world, including Antarctica.

This service is based on providing Internet services in remote places where there is no infrastructure that allows residents to access underground cable-based terrestrial Internet, or places where there is no good coverage of mobile wireless networks.

The Starlink service is also used to connect to the Internet during times of crisis or natural disasters, which happened in Ukraine after the start of Russian military operations on it, which negatively affected communications, which made this service the only source of Internet inside Ukraine.
