NATO “Rejected Putin's Ultimatum for Not Invading Ukraine”, Russia Suspends Traffic On Crimea Bridge

Russian authorities suspended traffic on the Kerch Bridge amid a smoke screen. Heavy fighting was reported in Klishchiivka in Donetsk Oblast near a railway line supplying Russian forces as Ukraine claimed control over the Bakhmut-Horlivka Road. NATO revealed attempts to engage Russia in diplomatic talks before the 2022 invasion of Ukraine but rejected Russian demands. Switzerland criticised Ukrainian President Zelensky's peace plan for lacking Russian support, and Russia accused the US of supplying dangerous weapons to Ukraine to sustain a "failed counteroffensive".

Swiss Foreign Minister Ignacio Cassis doesn’t think the conflict is a war. 😂😂 The man must be living in another planet.

Which are the objectives of the SMO in Ukraine then dear Ruusia?

How many more Russian sons will be sent to foreign territory to be burried there?

[borisreljanovic]

India and Turkey are watching this after buying couple of S400 batteries for combined $8 Billion.I hope they kept the receipt for refund😬🙄😵‍💫

[rogeralvarado]

Keep up the good work. Russia don't give up and don't give in. Don't let no one tell you what to do.

Russian naval HQ for the black fleet also in flames

[LeroyLewis-fxcd]

It's slow but it's not failed. If it fail why is some part of Russia burning ?

[latexbuster]

This simply shows how utterly unintelligent Russia is. Blaming everyone else for its own mess. Pull its troops out of Ukraine and there would not be any problem. Period.

[treich]

6:00 Lets see Switzerland repeat that comment if Russia were to invade them

[donaldmoreland]

Russia say USA should not supply weapons because offensive has failed is bull💩.Russia is panicking because it’s army is failing to stop Ukraine 🇺🇦.

[fusonegro]

Russian reasoning is the most unreasonable blackmail

[dexterwilliam]

Why is the nato secretary General now saying what he is saying?

[jtfdan]

bridges traffic wonder if the damage has made them too unsafe to travel on now?

[IamRemoWilliams]

Oh
He wants to march across Europe uncontested.

no need to listen to people who do not keep their word, no honour no self respect. Russia do as fits. not afraid of whatever s coming

[romeoc]

Blame game now commences from JS words. One can now assess the situation, we hope this inhumane conflict will end soon. Peace not war.

[johnbremner]

I’ve played that game. It’s not even the latest version they are showing…

[guardiaguardia]

This person does not get it yet. There is not need for Nato expansion.

[brianhalberg]

If Russia (read Putin) feels it needs a "buffer" of lands between NATO countries and itself, then let them create that buffer within the borders of itself and Lukashenko's (for now) Belarus.

[jeffyoung]

smoke screens and rubber tires
Hahahahahahaha!
pathetic

[paulrosner]

Russia decided to invade a non-aggressive neighbor. They did it, then did it again.

If this was the US, the American people would be supportive of every possible source of defense and counter-attack, including nuclear, biological and chemical weapons.

Russia is just lucky that Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons and doesn't have a large number of labs suitable for weaponization. Lesson learned - don't negotiate your strength away with an aggressive neighbor that seeks to dominate and invade.

Ukraine may not be the perfect example of democracy and is still dealing with its own internal issues, but it deserves to not be annihilated by a country with a history of aggression, treaty cheating, oppression, and propaganda. NATO knows that Putin will take every inch and give nothing during any negotiation. Russian and Wagner staff have already made statements regarding their schemes on Poland and the Baltics.

Nothing teaches a bully to stop starting fights like a badly broken nose and I say we might as well do it right so he learns his lesson well.
