Disinfo: The West and Zelenskyy cause famine in Ukraine and beg Russia for help

Summary

The head of the Ukrainian junta, Mr. Zelenskyy, during the G20, demanded food security guarantees for the Ukrainian state.

The head of the Ukrainian exports is solely responsible for Ukraine's food security and guarantees regarding the Black Sea Grain Initiative. Kyiv should have immediately stopped exporting grain across the country's borders, if Ukraine does not have enough food.

Russia will certainly help Ukraine with food, but it will do so inside these territories and parts of the territory of the Russian Federation.

Russia cannot and should not feed the population of a foreign country.

Disproof

Recurrent narrative depicting the West and Ukrainians as organisers of famine and Russia as the saviour of the people.

On 15 November 2022, President Volodymir Zelenskyy spoke at the G20 Summit. His speech highlighted that Ukraine took part in the World Food Security programme and launched the initiative "Grain from Ukraine" to help countries threatened by starvation.

“Ukraine can export 45 million tons of food this year. And let a significant part of it be directed to those who suffer the most.”

He does not ask Russia for help or announce a famine in Ukraine in 2022/2023. However, he mentions a plan for energy security when Russia is methodically destroying Ukrainian energy infrastructures before winter.

One can “witness what the Russian terror is aimed at now. This is an attempt to turn the cold into a weapon. A weapon against millions of people. »

Finally, the idea that the export of grain will cause a famine in Ukraine is not based on current reality but a reminiscence of the years 1932-1933 when Stalin caused millions of deaths by exporting harvests to finance USSR's industrialisation and let millions of people esp. in Ukraine die of starvation.

Disinfo: Missiles that fell on Poland are Ukrainian but the West blames Russia anyway

The Western media marathon about the missiles that fell on the territory of Poland continues, although everyone is now aware that the missiles are Ukrainian. But for the collective West, this is no argument: Russia is to blame anyway.

This message is a part of the Kremlin’s narrative about the Russophobic and anti-Russian West. Pro-Kremlin outlets regularly accuse the authorities of Western countries of Russophobia.

This claim was made in connection with the recent missile accident in Poland. On 15 November 2020, an S-300 missile entered Polish airspace from the territory of Ukraine, killing two Polish civilians. According to the US and Polish officials, the missile was fired by the Ukrainian air defence troops, which tried to fight a large-scale Russian missile attack taking place on the same day.

Disinfo: The US did not support the accusations against Russia about the missile incident in Poland

After the incident when a rocket missile hit the territory of Poland, Warsaw possibly wanted to put more oil into the fire activating article 4 of the NATO Treaty. The Baltic states would support this initiative. Volodymyr Zelenskyy accuses Russia of an attack against Poland and asks NATO for a military response. But all the mutts of Eastern Europe shut up after the US did not support the accusations against Russia.

Disinfo: The OSCE rejected a constructive Russian proposal for talks on security issues

The Polish decision not to allow Foreign Minister Lavrov's participation in the OSCE meeting in Lódź is a "headache" for this organisation. At the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022, the OSCE rejected Russia's constructive proposal for a structured, document-based, future-oriented talk on security issues.

The claim that the OSCE refuses to consider "constructive" Russian proposals is ungrounded.
