Russia Vows To Continue Hostilities Until Ukraine Ends Discrimination Against Russian-Speaking Citizens
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]

Russia’s permanent representative to the United Nations
...boodling on the grand scale...
, Vassily Nebenzia, has said that the conflict with the Ukraine may be concluded either through diplomatic, or military means, but only after Moscow has achieved its goals.

Speaking at a briefing at the UN Security Council, the envoy commented on a possible path for ending the hostilities between the two sides.

The opportunity to settle the conflict "will only present itself once Ukraine stops posing a threat to Russia and discriminating against Russian-speaking Ukrainians," he said.
And what, exactly, does that entail? Is there anything short of total surrender that will suffice?
RT reports that Nebenzia stated that "if this result can be achieved through negotiations, we stand ready for this scenario. If not — then our tasks will be achieved by military means."

The diplomat reiterated that Russia is fighting not against the Ukrainian people, but rather against "the criminal nationalist regime which came to power in 2014" after a coup in Kiev.

The new Ukrainian leadership has been trying to purge the country of "everything that is related to Russia, and to glorify Nazi accomplices," he said.

Nebenzia stated that "everything could have ended differently for Ukraine," if Kiev had enforced the now-defunct Minsk Agreements, which were signed in 2014 and 2015 in a bid to pave the way for peace by granting the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics special status within the Ukrainian state.

However,
you can observe a lot just by watching...
neither Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky or his predecessors, nor La Belle France and Germany, which took part in negotiating the Minsk Agreements, ever intended to fulfill the plan, according to Nebenzia. This diplomatic process "only served as a smokescreen behind which they secretly armed Ukraine in order to set it against Russia," he stated.

Last month, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel
...chancellor of Germany and the impetus behind Germany's remarkably ill-starred immigration program. Merkel used to be referred to by Germans as Mom. Now they make faces at her for inundating the country with Moslem colonists...
admitted that the Minsk Agreements were "an attempt to give Ukraine time" so that its army could get stronger. Later, this revelation was confirmed by former French President Francois Hollande
...the Socialist president of La Belle France, an economic bad joke for la Belle France but seemingly a foreign policy realist...
, who noted that the Minsk Agreements had helped Ukraine to achieve that goal.

Merkel’s and Hollande’s confessions caused an uproar in Moscow, with Russian officials describing them as "formalization of betrayal."

In December, Ukraine floated the idea of a "Global Peace Summit," building on Zelensky’s "peace formula," which in particular demanded Russia withdraw its troops from all territories claimed by Kiev.
