Pachamama DayVladimir Putin this Sunday, on Russia's Navy Day.(EFE)Russia announced this Sunday that its new naval doctrine centers on the idea that the United States is its greatest global threat.And that to counteract this threat, it plans to create military bases in multiple parts of the globe.The intention of the Vladimir Putin regime is to inaugurate military bases in the Mediterranean Sea, the Asia-Pacific region, the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf.Moscow sees as the "main risk" for its Navy the lack of sufficient bases outside its borders that can receive and supply its ships and carry out repair and technical maintenance.In the US, they are concerned about the steps that Russia is taking in the conflict.A few hours ago, the ambassador to the United Nations stated that she should no longer be in doubt that Russia intends to dismantle Ukraine "and dissolve it from the world map completely".Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the UN Security Council that Washington is seeing increasing signs that Russia is laying the groundwork to try to annex the Donetsk and Luhansk provinces in eastern Ukraine and the Kherson regions. and Zaporizhia, in the south, with politicians controlled by Moscow who promote fake referendums.pic.twitter.com/LK1MB2cSoJNATO's International Security Force for Kosovo (KFOR) is ready to intervene if stability in northern Kosovo is endangered, the military organization warned in a statement.Disseminated through the social network Twitter and after admitting that "security in northern Kosovo is tense", KFOR states that "it will take all necessary measures to maintain a safe environment in Kosovo at all times, in accordance with its mandate of the United Nations", emanated from resolution 1244 of 1999.KFOR stresses that the KFOR command is in contact with all its main interlocutors, including representatives of Kosovo security organizations and the Serbian Chief of Defense, and will continue to offer its support for the normalization of the process between Pristina and Belgrade."There will be no real prospects for a better future in the Balkans without full respect for human rights and democratic values, rule of law, internal reforms, and good neighborly relations. Constructive dialogue is the key to regional stability," he concluded.In recent hours, strong tensions have arisen between Kosovo and Serbia with blockades of border crossings and roads, a few hours after the beginning of the application by Pristina of the ban on Serbian documents and license plates in Kosovo, a measure that they oppose the Serbs.Kosovo announced at the end of last June that it will prohibit the use of Serbian identity documents and license plates on its territory from August 1, in a decision similar to the one that last September generated a crisis that implied that the two countries increased their forces. border security.Since 2011, Kosovo and Serbia have been carrying out difficult and unsuccessful negotiations to normalize their relations.The Center for Combating Disinformation of the National Security Council of Ukraine reported via Telegram that since the beginning of the war, the number of Russian attacks against civilian facilities is 60 times higher than against military ones.This contradicts the statement of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who said that "the Russian army does not attack any civilian objects."According to Ukrinform, there are 17,300 attacks against civilian facilities and about 300 against military ones."First of all, the occupiers attack the civil infrastructure of the cities located along the front line," they reported.In this way, the Kremlin hopes that the shelling will encourage local residents to stop resisting and speak out against the "kyiv regime," according to the Center.This "scorched earth" tactic, as analysts point out, replaced the Russian Army's unsuccessful bid to infiltrate mobile groups into the interior of the country.Anatoly Chubais was considered a man very close to President Vladimir Putin until last March, when he left his country almost a month after the start of the war in Ukraine.He is hospitalized in serious conditions "in a European clinic," the Tass agency reported.The agency cited TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak as a source, who said she got the news from the mouth of Chubais's wife, Avdotya Smirnoav Chubais, the father of privatization in Russia and already a presidential envoy for the climate, was affected by the Guillian-Barré syndrome, a rare neurological disease that damages peripheral nerves.Chubais is hospitalized in intensive care, the famous driver specified that he did not say in which European country he is.The President of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelensky, assured this Sunday that no Russian attack will go unanswered and thanked his compatriots for the effort they are making to resist the invading army.“The Russian army is trying to strengthen its position in the occupied areas of the south of our country, increasing activity in the corresponding directions (...) But this will not help them.None of the Russian attacks goes unanswered by our military and intelligence officials,” the president said in his usual daily message to the Ukrainians.“Let the Russian terrorists not even hope that they can destroy the social and industrial potential of Ukraine and walk among the ruins.Ukraine and our people, our capabilities are definitely more powerful than any Russian missiles and shells," Zelensky added.“I want to thank every resident of Mykolaiv for being indomitable, for protecting the city and the region.I also thank Nikopol, Kharkov, the entire Dnipropetrovsk region, the strong people of Zaporizhia, each and every one who defends the approaches to Odessa and the region...
