Under this title, the Lebanese newspaper Al -Bunah wrote, “The first weekend of the Ukrainian war, carried a military harvest by achieving hundreds of Russian targets in terms of neutralizing strategic and vital facilities and destroying heavy Ukrainian military equipment, but in the field it allowed control of Russian forces over 100 thousand square kilometers of Ukrainian lands, i.e. The equivalent of ten times Lebanon’s area out of 600 thousand is the area of Ukraine, during which it completed the siege of six Ukrainian cities, including the capital Kyiv, and the historical capital, Kharkif, in addition to Maribel in the south and Meclav in the center after entering and controlling Jacon, and Zaburigia, where the nuclear station that was neutralized, And Odisa, which has become almost trapped.
According to Russian sources, the military plan is proceeding with the speed, and what was accomplished during the first week will make the achievements of the second week faster, especially since Russia has succeeded in containing the first shock of the media and diplomatic campaign on the one hand, and the effect of financial sanctions on the other hand, and the effects of Russian military successes began to impose its presence on positions Western with a higher degree of rationality and more accurate choice of vocabulary, and a cautious formulation of positions and data, while the West stands in front of a dilemma of its title that more pressure on Russia equals the bombing of the social and economic situation in the West, especially in Europe, because the only portal of financial pressure is to stop the import of Europe for oil and gas from Russia, while yesterday's news carried without prohibiting Russian oil and gas exports to a rise in prices, reaching record rates that exceeded the threatening expectations launched by former Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, who told the Europeans who waited for a thousand cubic meters of gas by $ 2000, the day the price was $ 1200, so With it, the price of $ 2400 is recorded and continues to rise, and it is expected that it will jump to $ 5,000 if the import is banned from Russia, and like the gas was the oil market, even to a lesser degree Fu The origin of the price of the oil barrel, the rise, recording the price of $ 120 per barrel after the first crisis was at the end of last year at $ 80, and sources in the oil and gas market said that Russia's sales during Thursday alone recorded $ 1 billion instead of $ 300 million in normal days, and the reason is to increase demand And the high prices together.
In Lebanon, the debate continues about the position taken by the government on the war in Ukraine, and Prime Minister Najib Mikati said that it is an initial position on entering the army of a state to another country, which necessitated a parliamentary question about how this rule can justify the government position in support of the Saudi -Emirati incursion into landsYemeni?
Government, the municipal elections were postponed for a year under a draft law to be sent to the House of Representatives, while the deciding of the fate of the megasantter adopting in the parliamentary elections was postponed to the next week, and the crisis of food and oil resources securing on the surface in light of the crises that resulted from the war.

A committee for the "Hokashtin Show" and Hezbollah rejects the immediate or by means
Under this address, the Lebanese newspaper Al -Akhbar wrote, “The file of demarcating the maritime border with occupied Palestine was transformed into a secrets fund that the bodies that take care of what is happening in it are trying, without until now the sins committed by the state, which may lead to the loss of Lebanon as part of its sovereignty and wealthNavy.Certainly, the file is a fat paper for those who want to collect political or personal gains, and it is more certain that anyone will not "get involved" in resisting the United States for fear of the sword of sanctions, so accepting the minimum that the Americans want to wish for on Lebanon is what leaks from the meetings of what is behindThe scenes.
This week, the demarcation file moved to a new station represented by the handing over of the American Ambassador in Beirut Dorothy Xia, the three presidents, a written offer, a translation of the oral offer carried by the chief negotiator in the US Department of Energy, Amos Hokashtin, at the request of Lebanon, and what is required of Lebanon is answered, before specifying The American mediator is the date for a near visit. The offer suggests Lebanon to obtain line 23 distorted, by giving it line 23, before it deviates up at the blocks 8 and 10, so they will be with the external section of the Qana field from the Israeli enemy's share, in addition to another offer that includes the establishment of the company "Total" from the Lebanese side and the company " Hallibron »on the other hand by managing joint fields, to be working on the border under Qatari sponsorship. According to well -informed sources, the President of the Republic, by accepting negotiations on line 23, provided a safety to reach a solution, but the enemy apparently does not want to get off the tree, as evidenced by the display of the distorted line. Also, the American mediator is fully aware that he was deceived by the Israelis, so he decided to replace the visit to the message, and the threats of the American ambassador, and to continue to refuse to release exemptions from the Caesar Law for Egypt and Jordan to provide Lebanon with gas and electricity, to keep this file hostage to the demarcation file.
"Al -Akhbar" learned that it was decided to form a committee that includes 8 members to study the "Hokashtin offer" (two representatives of the President of the Republic, representatives of Prime Minister Najib Mikati, two from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and two from the Ministry of Defense). While the committee may include representatives of the army and the ministries of the environment, works and energy, prominent sources confirmed that the Minister of Works on a diet informed Hezbollah that the prime minister wanted him to be among the committee, and that the party informed him of a "refusal position", stressing that "we will not participate in any meeting Or direct talks through the minister or by mediation related to the demarcation file, especially if the committee will meet with American delegations. The sources were surprised that Lebanon is in the process of studying this proposal, knowing that "the position on it must be rejection and nothing but rejection", considering that "the party's position is a response to the process of implicating the file by involving the Minister of Works, not because his ministry is concerned with the file but rather Because Hezbollah Minister, and because his participation will give the impression that the party is a partner in the negotiating process, which is what he rejects from the beginning. The country is excluded from the decision. ” So far, the names of the members of the committee that are taught between Baabda and Al -Sarayi Palace have not been agreed upon.
Declaration of the "nuclear disaster" weapon: Kyiv is playing banned
Under this title, I wrote the news, “It seems that the Ukrainian authorities, led by Voludmir Zelensky, will not hesitate to resort to the most extremist options, whenever I sensed that the Russian screws began to be tightened. In this context, the series of accidents, which Russia says, is fabricated in Ukrainian nuclear installations, with the aim of accusing Moscow of responsibility, and then taking it as an excuse to demand the establishment of a Joe -embargoing area over Ukraine. At the end of these incidents, a fire broke out at the southeast of the nuclear nuclear station Nuclear »will cause the Russian process. The aforementioned al -Tawil started a few days ago, after two two incidents: The first is raising the level of radiation in the Chernobyl reactor; The second is targeting the nuclear waste store, so the Zaburigia incident comes and the third station is in that context.
At this time, while the right -wing units of the neo -Nazi Nazis and racist nationalists who are called “Ansar Stepan Bandira”, the Ukrainian agent who fought alongside the Nazis in World War II, continues, in what Moscow describes as “provocative actions”, the Russian intelligence security services monitor "Chat" programs (chat via social media) in Ukraine, in which the participants exchange messages of a terrorist nature, calls for the killing of Russian soldiers, and they trade information on how to make Molotovs incendiary bottles, instructions on the places of weapons and how to distribute them. Among these groups, for example: "Comfort Town", "KAT Peresnova 12", "Rotder Town", "Vidkrita", "J Ka Nouokovi". For his part, a spokesman for the Russian Ministry of Defense, Major General Igor Konashenkov, announced that "the nationalists in Ukraine are preparing provocative operations in the city of Kharkov, participating in the direction of foreign media, with the aim of luring a response to the fire from the Russian forces artillery towards the residential areas of the city of Kharkov." According to the ministry’s data, the Ukrainian forces deployed rocket launchers between residential buildings, and prevented citizens from leaving their homes. Later, the Russian "defense" confirmed that the Zaburigia nuclear station was controlled by the Russian Armed Forces and the Nuclear Control Department in Ukraine, and that the station specialists control the work of energy units, and continue to operate them according to the requirements of technological regulations for safe operation.
In a related context, Russian experts, including Volodimir Rugov, spoke about five rules that the Russian forces will be applied in the areas they control in the context of their military operation, on top of which are: exempting citizens from debts, bank loans, fees and municipal bills, provided that the next fees are determined on the basis of Russian prices, applying a facilitator tax system for Ukrainian businessmen who will be able to reach Russian markets, as well as setting a plan to help Ukrainian farmers harvest their seasons. On a parallel line, while the Russian Foreign Intelligence Authority announced that the security services of the Western countries are transporting gunmen to Ukraine, remarkable statements to former Ukrainian Prime Minister Nicolay Azarov, in which he said that the Kyiv authorities were preparing to launch a military operation on the Logansk and Donetsk popular republics in Donbas on 25 Last February, that is, just one day after the launch of the Russian private military operation. Azzarov added that "NATO" was planning to deploy four brigades in Ukraine, including air -backed forces and systems capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
There is no air ban over Ukraine, Russian President, Vladimir Putin, in connection with the German advisor, Olaf Schultz, confirmed Russia's openness to dialogue with Ukraine, provided that all its demands are implemented. Putin expressed his hope that Kyiv would take a "wise and constructive position" during the upcoming negotiations. For his part, Schultz called for "stopping the Russian military operation immediately, to ensure the arrival of humanitarian aid," stressing that his country "is not and will not be part of the military clash in Ukraine." In the same direction, the Secretary -General of the NATO, Jens Stoltenberg, asserted that the alliance will not establish a atmospheric zone over Ukraine, noting that this means "a comprehensive war in Europe, in which many other countries are involved, and causes much greater human suffering ». Returning to Putin's statements, the latter defended what his country is doing that it only responds to the negative measures taken against them, calling on neighboring countries not to strain relations with Russia. He assured that his government will enhance the infrastructure of transportation and logistical services, despite the difficulties it faces, and that it will fulfill all its economic obligations towards foreign partner countries. For its part, the Russian intelligence, "NATO", was accused of transferring "terrorist" militants to Ukraine, after preparing them at the Syrian -controlled Syrian base.
