Kremlin disappointed no calls for peace with Russia were made during Zelensky’s visit to U.S Thursday, December 22, 2022 12:00:07 PM.

"There were no calls for peace, no real calls for peace – not on camera, but real ones.

This suggests that the United States really continues its policy of de facto and indirectly fighting with Russia to the last Ukrainian," Putin's spokesman said.

Peskov expressed regret that neither President Biden nor President Zelensky uttered "at least some words that could be perceived as a potential willingness to listen to Russia's concerns.".

Russian propagandist Olga Skabeyeva, reacting to Volodymyr Zelensky's trip to the United States, came up with a new idea.

This is Zelensky's first foreign trip since the beginning of a full-scale invasion by Russia.

Two other Confederate officers in the commission’s crosshairs were West Point grads P.G.T. Beauregard and William Hardee. »

The addition of the Patriot missile system will offer a long-range capability for defending Ukraine from cruise and ballistic missiles, intercepting missiles within a 100-mile radius and at heights up to 79,000ft.

Russia has already said that the Patriot system would be a “legitimate target” for attacks, and warned that the delivery of the system would be seen as an escalation.

A strictly tactical implication of this would be that the enhanced range of Iranian supplied missiles would require the increased capabilities of the Patriot missile system to offer effective defence. »
