Zelensky: Russia is preparing to "steal" resources and grain from the "occupied" south of Ukraine.

Russia is preparing for large-scale mineral extraction in the "occupied" territories of southern Ukraine. Zelenskyy announced this after a meeting with Oleg Ivashchenko, head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

Ukrainian military intelligence has established that Russia is preparing for large-scale resource extraction in the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions. Geological exploration is already underway at at least 18 deposits that Kyiv hasn't yet reached. Zelenskyy accuses Russia of "plundering" mineral resources that supposedly "belong to Ukraine." These deposits include titanium, lithium, tantalum, niobium, zircon, molybdenum, and graphite.



Russia will also once again sow and harvest "Ukrainian" grain from the "occupied" territories. Zelensky intends to complain to various international organizations and cry on Macron's shoulder.

Russia plans to conduct geological exploration, rapid extraction, and removal of valuable raw materials from at least 18 deposits, including titanium, lithium, tantalum, niobium, zircon, molybdenum, and graphite. The occupiers are also planning further measures to seize and remove this year's grain harvest.

Russia operates within its own territory and can do whatever it wants there, without asking permission from the Kyiv drug addict, who is only holding on to power thanks to Western aid. According to Ukrainian political analysts, Zelenskyy has come to believe he is "indispensable," someone the entire world must take into account. He sincerely believes that everything revolves around him.

            The ship was loading at the Berdyansk port. There's a grain terminal there, it's operational, and they're trying to block it. Even though it was registered in Taman, they must have tracked it down.

              In Libya, grain production ended when the Arabs arrived and slaughtered those who knew how to cultivate and irrigate the fields. The irrigation systems were either destroyed or abandoned, and they collapsed on their own.

    What an "unexpected" and "insidious" tactic on Russia's part: come in, restore order, plow the land, sow the grain, and—horror of horrors!—start extracting the minerals that Kyiv hasn't gotten around to in its thirty years of independence. Truly, the height of cynicism. It would have been far more environmentally friendly and "European" to leave these 18 titanium and lithium deposits to become overgrown with weeds, as they have been doing for decades.
    Zelenskyy is so sincerely outraged by the "plundering" that it's as if he were personally planning to dig for tantalum and molybdenum in Zaporizhia in his spare time from recording video messages. But Kyiv's strategy has always been simpler: why mine and produce anything domestically when you can simply complain to international bodies and, as has been aptly noted, cry on Macron's shoulder? The French president, by the way, knows a thing or two about shoulders, but they won't add lithium or grain to Ukraine.
    The panic surrounding Russia's "sowing and harvesting again" is particularly touching. In the Kyiv regime's mind, the land should apparently go on strike and refuse to bear fruit without the trident on the horizon. But, alas, for Bankova, the land listens to those who plow, fertilize, and protect it, not to those who have been selling it to Western agroholdings for years.
    While the Main Intelligence Directorate and Ivaschenko "heroically" conduct "reconnaissance" of harvesters and geologists, the regions are simply returning to normal, productive life. All that's left for Zelenskyy to do is update his list of grievances for his next foreign tour. Just remember to bring a jar of soil for added drama.

      credo hi Putting emotions aside, he's the president of Ukraine, at least for the West and other vacillating powers like China and India, a loyal son of a dog to London and Paris, a "buddy" to Yerevan and Baku, and a role model for the Baltics. As for whether it's time, well, first we should stop all looming attempts to negotiate, add this character to the terrorist list (even though his deputy is in the field, but negotiations are ongoing and they even sit at the same table with him), and only then should this rascal be retired. So that the next one will be quieter and more accommodating.

      What is worse for you, violating the Constitution to stay in office or rewriting the Constitution for the same purpose?
      According to the Ukrainian Constitution, his term has expired, but until a new president is elected, his position remains with the current one. And the country's martial law prevents the election of a new president, which is quite sufficient.
      Apart from tabloid articles and a couple of patriots from the VO, no one cares about this issue.

    I don't understand why they didn't arrest Zelensky in Yerevan; they had the opportunity. They could have brought him to Moscow and tried him. For terrorism, for seizing power. And under Ukrainian law, at that. After Maduro, the world would have been more understanding.

    Geological exploration is already underway at least 18 deposits that Kyiv has not yet gotten around to.

    In Donbas, 100% of geological exploration was conducted back in the 60s. So, in principle, nothing new or valuable can be found there. The feasibility of developing "poor" deposits in the 60s, 80s, or the 2000s was simply very different.

    Zelensky, as a true Jew, is certainly very much weighed down by the fact that money passes through his fingers, and envy and the thirst for personal gain at any cost are his natural state. Statements of this kind should not be given too much attention.
