his hairdresser told blinken what to do....

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that Washington has a clear strategy for the future of Ukraine but warned that financial support is wearing thin as an aid package stalls in Congress.

Speaking at his end-of-year press conference at the State Department on Wednesday, Blinken said that 2023 has been “a year of profound tests” as Washington attempts to navigate a series of global challenges in Ukraine, Gaza, and elsewhere.

But as signs grow, particularly among Republicans, that US enthusiasm to continue to support Ukraine in its near two-year conflict with Russia is waning, Blinken said to reporters that Washington has a concerted strategy for the future of the country.

“We have a very clear plan,” he said, “to make sure that Ukraine can stand on its own two feet – militarily, economically, democratically – so that these levels of support and assistance will no longer be necessary.”

The first of which, he suggested, was to free up additional financial aid for Ukraine so that Kiev can meet its immediate challenges. “We have to help Ukraine get through the next period of time, get through this winter, get through the spring and summer,” Blinken said.

He added: “I’m also focused on the fact that they have their own plans to continue.”

Pressure from Democrats, and even Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, has so far failed to persuade Republicans in Congress to rubber-stamp a $50 billion military aid package for Kiev. Dissenting voices in the legislature have insisted that the White House agree on border security provisions as a condition of the deal.

Without approval from Congress, Blinken warned that financial aid will rapidly dwindle. “There is no magic pot we can draw from,” he said. “The assistance, the support that we have designated for Ukraine that is running out, that is running down. We are nearly out of money. And we’re running out of time.”

Blinken also stated that the US will continue efforts to encourage other countries to provide further support for Kiev, and ensure that Russia’s operation is a “strategic failure.”

state terrorism.....

Ukraine has been using “terrorist methods” amid the conflict with Russia, carrying out those activities with “direct support” from foreign intelligence agencies, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said.

Putin made the statement on Wednesday as he greeted the employees of Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), Federal Guard Service (FSO) and the Main Directorate for Special Programs as part of Security Agency Worker’s Day.

“We are aware that, with direct support from foreign intelligence agencies, the Kiev regime has openly resorted to terrorist methods, engaging, in fact, in state terrorism,” the president stressed in his address.

Those activities by Ukraine include acts of sabotage at civilian sites, transport and energy infrastructure as well as terrorist attacks against representatives of the Russian authorities and public figures, he said.

The members of the security agencies have been acting “skillfully and efficiently” amid the “serious challenges” currently faced by the country, Putin said. However, counter-terrorism-efforts should be strengthened further “in all areas,” he insisted.

According to the president, special attention must be paid to boosting the protection of the Russian borders, especially in areas near the line of contact in Ukraine.

Inside Russia, the focus of the security agencies should be on tackling extremism, corruption and cyberspace threats as well as ensuring that companies, including those involved in the defense sector, can “reliably operate,” he said.

“Of course, we must thwart any attempts by foreign intelligence services to destabilize the social and political situation in Russia... to interfere in our internal affairs, and to violate the sovereign and unshakable right of the Russian people to determine their own future,” Putin said, in an apparent reference to the presidential election, which is scheduled to take place in March.

In October, the Washington Post reported that the CIA had invested “tens of millions” of dollars since the 2014 Euromaidan coup in Ukraine into transforming the country’s spy agencies into “potent allies against Moscow.” The article, which cited multiple American and Ukrainian sources, claimed that the US foreign intelligence service maintains a “significant presence” in Kiev amid the ongoing conflict with Russia.

According to the paper, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and its military counterpart, the GUR,“have carried out dozens of assassinations against Russian officials in occupied territories, alleged Ukrainian collaborators, military officers behind the front lines and prominent war supporters deep inside Russia,” including the killing of journalist Daria Dugina, the daughter of prominent Russian philosopher Aleksandr Dugin in August 2022.
