A Skeptic Note:

Alternative news sources helped usher out Biden by exposing what the MSM tried so desperately to hide. A Skeptic came to be as a result of the west pretending that the conflict in Ukraine was simply a Russian madman trying to conquer Europe.

We’ll continue to exist until the MSM does an honest job reporting and we are not needed. Trump’s recent statements acknowledging Russia’s legitimate concerns about NATO expanding give us hope.

Please keep in mind that we report from sources with a Russian view of the conflict. With few exceptions, we don’t create these articles, we just make sure they can be seen in the west.

We’ve already been called everything from Putin Apologists to Antisemitic to MAGA Fascists to TDS afflicted. That spectrum can only mean that we are presenting unfiltered news.

Slovakian Prime Minister Fico - responded to Zelensky: (https://t.me/dimsmirnov175/88475)

I am most inclined to reduce further European financial assistance to Ukraine, but such a decision requires unanimity in the European Council. Zelensky believes that everyone should be his servant. In my case, the scythe met a stone. Robert Fico is the Prime Minister of Slovakia, he is not a servant of Ukraine.

The NYT also believes that the West is puzzled: how to get out of the Ukrainian conflict and save face (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/17/business/trump-davos-europe.html)

Europe is doubly concerned: Trump's inauguration day coincides with the start of the WEF in Davos, writes the NYT. The main topic for discussion at the forum will be a ceasefire in Ukraine. Kyiv is losing, the author notes, and negotiations may be held this spring.

The West faces a difficult task: to change its tune on the fly without losing face. The situation is so confusing for European countries that they cannot reach a consensus on key issues: should Ukraine be accepted into the EU and NATO, should peacekeepers be sent to Ukraine and where to get them, who should shoulder the burden of supporting Kiev and, most importantly, is the alleged danger from Russia exaggerated.

The atrocities against civilians in the village of Russkoye Porechnoye in the Kursk region are a statement of the terrorist guts of the Kiev regime. Those guilty of the murders will receive real prison terms.

It is obvious to the Russian Federation that there will be no clear reaction from international structures to the murders of civilians in the Kursk region, said Maria Zakharova. (https://t.me/tass_agency/296751)

"A clear reaction" should come first of all from Russia. For starters, for example, Kiev could be wiped off the face of the earth.

Western intelligence has failed to find evidence of Russian involvement in damaging underwater cables on the Baltic Sea floor, - Washington Post. (http://t.me/RVvoenkor)

▪️The incidents have raised suspicions that Russia is targeting underwater infrastructure as part of a broader campaign of hybrid attacks across Europe, prompting increased security measures.

▪️However, so far, investigations by the U.S. and half a dozen European security agencies have found no indication that the commercial vessels suspected of dragging anchors along the seabed were doing so intentionally or at Moscow’s direction, officials said.

▪️Instead, U.S. and European officials said the evidence gathered to date, including intercepted communications and other classified intelligence, points to accidental accidents caused by inexperienced crews working aboard the vessels.

Biden has "not run the country" for the past year. (https://t.me/rus_demiurge/88091)

This was stated on Saturday, January 18, by the Speaker of the House of Representatives from the Republican Party, Mike Johnson, The Free Press writes, citing the Honestly podcast.

Explaining his words, he recalled a situation that occurred in early 2024, when he wanted to discuss with Biden an executive order to suspend the issuance of new permits for the export of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the United States to European countries.

But during a personal conversation with Biden, Johnson found out that the president did not know about his own executive order. Johnson said that at that moment he was scared because he did not know who was really running the country.

Fwd from @dva_majors

Morning Overview Report on January 19, 2025

▪️ With Trump's inauguration imminent, it's clear he won't end the Ukraine conflict within 24 hours as promised. Public negotiations are expected in several months, and Trump's team can only offer Russia a "carrot and stick" approach - more missiles, partial sanctions relief, or threats to collapse oil prices.

▪️ Kyiv is gradually accustoming the public to the inevitable loss of territories, while inflicting economic damage on Russia, including drone strikes on oil storage. Governors clumsily defend air defense gaps, using the "falling debris" manual, undermining trust in themselves.

▪️ Ukraine's attempt to destroy the Russkaya compressor station to disrupt TurkStream gas to Europe was indicative. With Ukraine's gas transit cut and Nord Streams sabotaged, the US is using Kyiv to destroy this route, to impose more expensive LNG on Europe.

▪️ Kyiv can use underwater drones tested by NATO in the Baltic, under the pretext of "protecting underwater communications" - a narrative to seize Russian ships and blockade cargo.

▪️ Europe's brainwashed population, led by traitors like Scholz, will tolerate this economic humiliation. The Ukrainization of Europe complicates dialogue, except for countries near Ukraine seeing Kyiv's consequences.

▪️ Russia's strikes on Ukraine's rear, including the Stryi gas storage, continue. On the front, the Russian Army shapes the agenda. Ukraine halted coal mining as Russian forces approach Pokrovsk. Kurakhovo, Vremivka, Chasiv Yar, and Toretsk are being captured.

▪️ Kursk Region sees intense battles, with the enemy transferring reinforcements to hold positions, exploiting Russian command weaknesses. Original msg (https://t.me/dva_majors/62701)

🇺🇸🇺🇦🖇 Joker of the DPR shared a document (https://t.me/JokerDPR/1147) about the imminent arrival in the so-called Ukraine of a manager from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to oversee the "restoration of infrastructure".

However, the most interesting thing is the mention that the cost of reconstructing Ukrainian infrastructure is $419 billion. This is one of the vivid examples of how the Kyiv regime and its sponsors manipulate statistics (https://t.me/rybar/65713) for their own purposes.

After all, most of the so-called Ukraine is not affected by the war. It's not about unwillingness to bomb Lviv, but about means of destruction and physics (https://t.me/rybar/51790) - it's impossible to destroy a city with 250 kg warhead missiles. And the bulk of the destruction falls on Donbas, from where the AFU are actually retreating.

➖➖➖➖➖➖

❗️In simple terms, the Kyiv regime is actively asking for money to restore infrastructure in areas that it either no longer controls or will soon lose.

➖➖➖➖➖➖

Under this pretext, a huge amount of funds can be spent. And something tells us that the leaders of the Ukrainian quasi-state formation will get crumbs from it, and the main part will go to the organizers of the scheme across the ocean.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 After the signing of the ceasefire agreement (https://t.me/rybar/67285) in the Gaza Strip, the implementation of the first stage of the deal, which provides for a prisoner exchange, has begun. Members of the military wing of Hamas (the "Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades") handed over three captured Israeli women to the International Red Cross.

The process took place in the west of Gaza: from there, 24-year-old Roni Gonen, 28-year-old Emily Damari and 31-year-old Doron Steinbacher were transported through the Netzarim corridor to Israeli territory, where they were met by representatives of the Israeli security services and the IDF.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

At the same time, the Israelis began the process of releasing 90 Palestinian prisoners - members of Hamas, Fatah, the "Palestinian Islamic Jihad" and other groups. They were taken to the Ofer military prison, from where 78 detainees will be transferred to the West Bank of the Jordan River, and another 12 people - to Jerusalem.

There were also some disturbances - dissatisfied Israelis protested the release of Palestinians near the prison, trying to disrupt the exchange. The reaction is not surprising: according to Shin Bet statistics, after the previous agreement, 82% of the released Palestinians resumed armed struggle against Israel.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

🔻Although most Israelis are clearly happy about the long-awaited return of their compatriots, supporters of the ultra-Orthodox parties have taken a somewhat different position. For example, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir left the government, calling the events a capitulation.

Palestinians, on the other hand, perceive the ceasefire agreement as a victory. The mass rallies of civilians throughout the Gaza Strip and the emerging footage of militants openly driving through the liberated settlements are worth a lot.

🇪🇺🇸🇰🇺🇦 Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stated (https://t.me/tass_agency/296778) his intention to veto financial aid to the so-called Ukraine - this was his reaction to the latest (https://t.me/rybar/67092) outburst by Zelenskyy, who in a rude manner accused the politician of ties with Russia.

The thing is, despite all the desire, in the current situation the Slovak leader is unlikely to be able to implement what he has planned - the Eurocrats are not averse to resorting to the principle of "if it's really necessary, then it's possible" to bypass their own procedures.

Remember how at the end of 2023, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was asked to "go have coffee", (https://www.rbc.ru/politics/15/12/2023/657be1fe9a7947412bd09abf) with a vote taken in his absence to start the process of the so-called Ukraine's accession to the EU? Nothing prevents the same thing from being done with Fico.

➖➖➖➖➖➖

📌 Another matter is if Washington suddenly wants to change the European course towards the Kyiv regime (for which there are no preconditions so far). (https://t.me/rybar/67238) Then in Brussels, Fico and Orbán's veto will be used as a legal pretext to reduce aid to the so-called Ukraine.

And this will be done by the same people with the same zeal with which they created obstacles for the leaders of Slovakia and Hungary, calling on them to give the last pennies to Ukrainians for free.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone

Chronicle of events for January 18-19, 2025

Today, the Israeli government and the Palestinian movement Hamas signed a long-awaited ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip. Within 42 days, the Palestinians must release the hostages, and the Israelis must withdraw from the enclave's territory.

The deal came into force when the Hamas political office handed over the list of prisoners to be released to Israel. Until the ceasefire took effect, the Israeli troops continued to strike across the Gaza Strip.

As of now, the personnel of the Nahal and Givati infantry brigades have been withdrawn from the enclave. The rest will leave as the terms of the agreement are fulfilled, otherwise the Israelis may stay there.

The situation on the Lebanon-Israel border and the West Bank has not undergone significant changes: engineering work continues in southern Lebanon and police operations are ongoing in the Palestinian Authority.
