Zelensky’s mental health issues [4]:

1. Russia will push Ukrainian troops further away from its borders in response to the West supplying longer-range missile systems to Kiev, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Monday.

Last week, US President Joe Biden announced a new #militaryassistance package for Ukraine that includes High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (#HIMARS), a decision dictated by the conflict turning into "an artillery duel," as Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kahl put it. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the same day that Volodymyr Zelenskyy assured Washington that Kiev will not use the long-range rocket systems to strike #Russianterritory.

"The longer the range of the systems supplied to the Kiev regime is, the further we will push the Nazis away from the line where the threat to the Russian population of Ukraine and the Russian Federation comes from," Lavrov told reporters.

The foreign minister also doubted Zelenskyy's assurances that Kiev will not use #longrangemissiles to target Russian regions, noting that "in Ukraine politicians and members of parliament just laugh at the Americans who said that they believe Zelenskyy."

2. The Harpoon anti-ship missiles have arrived in Ukraine with a range of 200 kilometers and a 95% hit rate in actual combat! Ukrainian media reported that British-aided #harpoon anti-ship missiles have arrived at the Ukrainian port of #Odessa. #Harpoonmissiles mainly rely on the sea to fly close to the target, so it is difficult to be detected. At the last moment, the missile will suddenly lift into the air, and then dive into the attack.

Penetrate the interior of the bridge and explode, use the shock wave and debris, and destroy the radar equipment and information command system of the enemy ship's bridge and mast. This high-altitude diving attack method can reduce the chance of missing the target, and it is difficult for enemy ships to avoid it. The shore-based Harpoon #antishipmissile system has the advantages of strong concealment, flexibility and long range.

The Harpoon anti-ship missiles of the Ukrainian army will pose a certain threat to the Russian #BlackSeaFleet in the port of #berdyansk near Mariupol, the waters near Odessa, and even the waters near Crimea.

3. Ukraine insists on the withdrawal of Russia’s naval forces and security guarantees against attacks on ports and commercial convoys in order to resume grain exports via the Black Sea, Ukraine’s Permanent Representative to the UN Sergey Kislitsa said at a session of the UN Security Council on Monday.

"As the first step Russia must withdraw its naval forces in the #maritimewaters around Ukraine and provide security guarantees against attacks on ports and commercial convoys," he said.

That said, the Ukrainian diplomat did not deem sufficient Russia’s statements on the security guarantees made last week. According to him, "increased pressure rather than premature and unjustified gratitude must be the common international response" to Russia's promises.

"Ukraine is working with its partners to resume exports from the port of Odessa. The question is how to make sure that Russia does not abuse the trade route to attack the city itself," the Ukrainian envoy said. According to him, #kiev continues working with the UN and international partners to ensure the operations of #maritimeroutes for the export of Ukrainian #agriculturalproducts .

4. Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto asserted that he concurred with the opinion of Speaker of Hungary’s National Assembly Laszlo Kover on Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s #mentalhealth issues which can explain his attacks on foreign leaders. He expressed this opinion on his #facebookpage on Monday.
