Let's turn back the clock to yesterday, March 6, the 11th day of the Russian-Ukrainian War.
Previously, Zelenskiy repeatedly called on Putin to hold direct negotiations and stressed that Kiev was willing to discuss any issue with Moscow, but Putin did not take Zelenskiy. In desperation, Zelenskiy had no choice but to turn to the United States, Britain, France, and Germany, calling on the United States and Europe to provide more economic and military assistance for Ukraine and strengthen sanctions against Russia.
The problem was that before the Morale of the Russian army and the Donbas civilian armed forces and the Chechen army was high, and Kiev, Kharkov and Mariupol were surrounded, before they could counterattack the Russian army, Ukraine began to kill each other internally.
Specifically manifested in two aspects:
First, there were constant differences between the Ukrainian army and the Azov battalion.
Mariupol, located in eastern Ukraine and not far from Donetsk, is both a military stronghold of Ukraine and a stronghold of the extremist Azov battalion. After the Chechen army marched into Ukraine, the Azov battalion publicly called out to Chechen soldiers that they were waiting for Chechnya in Mariupol.
An enraged Kadyrov said he would never accept the surrender of the Azov battalion and that the Chechen army would completely annihilate the Azov battalion. In order to reduce losses and achieve the goal as soon as possible, Kadyrov issued a reward order, and Kadyrov stressed that as long as the leader of the Azov battalion could be captured, he could get a bounty of $500,000 from Chechnya.
Neither Kadyrov nor Zelensky may have imagined that although the Chechen army had arrived in Mariupol and was waiting for the opportunity to duel with the Azov battalion, at this critical moment, the Azov battalion was fighting with the Ukrainian army.
As a result, Chechnya can instead reap the benefits.
Donetsk civilian armed forces said that the Ukrainian army has used the "Dot-U" tactical missile to bomb the headquarters of the Azov battalion in Mariupol, killing more than 20 people on the spot and destroying more than 10 pieces of weapons and equipment.
The Russian news agency revealed that the reason for this kind of "cannibalism" farce is because there is a conflict between the Azov battalion and the Ukrainian army, and the Azov battalion refuses to obey the command of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, launches a military operation alone, not to mention, and refuses to cooperate with the Ukrainian army.
Perhaps in order to give the Ukrainian army a dismount, the Azov battalion took the lead in attacking the Ukrainian tactical army group, and the Ukrainian commander Sodol was seriously wounded. In desperation, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense had to send helicopters to evacuate Sodor from Mariupol.
Pro-Russian forces said that after a quarrel with the Ukrainian army, the Azov battalion attacked Sodol's car.
In short, in the face of disagreement, the Azov battalion launched a "beheading" operation against the Ukrainian officers, and Sodor, although spared, was seriously injured.
In order to retaliate against the Azov battalion, the Ukrainian army chose to retaliate with a tit-for-tat, that is, to shell the headquarters of the Azov battalion.
Over the years, the Azov battalion has killed innocent people in Wudong and is considered a notorious extremist force, and the pro-Russian forces, the Russian army and Chechnya all believe that the Azov battalion is a "big problem" and must be annihilated.
Putin's showdown with the Chechen army against the Azov battalion was the result of deliberation rather than impulsiveness, because the Azov battalion was extremely brave, very good at street fighting, and openly humiliated Chechnya.
In Putin's view, it is undoubtedly a wise move to let Chechnya go to Mariupol and participate in the kiev street battles.
According to the statement of the Russian Ministry of Defense, with the help of the Russian army, although the pro-Russian forces have surrounded Mariupol, in order to avoid hurting the innocent, Russia chose to call on the Ukrainian army to lay down its weapons, as well as shouted that the local Ukrainian people quickly evacuated, but the Azov battalion chose to prevent the people from leaving. Because the Azov battalion wanted to use the people as "hostages" to bind the Russian army, in order to increase the chips and chances of victory.
If it were not for the care of innocent people, the Russian army might have invaded Mariupol long ago.
It has to be mentioned that the Azov battalion has joined the Ukrainian National Guard, which is supposed to be part of the Ukrainian army, but at the critical moment when the Russian soldiers approached the city, the Azov battalion fell out with the Ukrainian army, which was more or less unexpected.
This means that Ukraine is not a monolith, and the Azov battalion, the Chechen rebels who fled to Ukraine, and the mercenaries who went to Ukraine should have their own layouts, which gave the Russian army the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and break through one by one.
On the other hand, compared with the contest between the Ukrainian army and the Azov battalion, the sudden attack and death of the Ukrainian representative is even more incredible.
The Ukrainian Defense Ministry said on March 5 that Ukrainian intelligence officer Kiriyev and three others were killed while carrying out their missions, and the Ukrainian Defense Ministry was deeply saddened by this.
As for why Kileev was killed and who the attackers were, the Ukrainian Defense Ministry did not disclose.
However, according to the Ukrainian news agency and Ukrainian lawmaker Dubinsky, it happened that the person who shot Kileyev was the Ukrainian Security Service.
It turned out that as one of the ukrainian representatives, Kiriyev had traveled to Belarus to hold the first round of negotiations with Russia, which included Ukrainian Defense Minister Leznikov.
Subsequently, the Ukrainian Security Service chose to arrest Kiriyev immediately on the grounds of "treason" by Kireyev, and during the arrest, the Ukrainian Security Service shot Andreev.
In short, Ukraine believes that Kireyev is cooperating with Russia's "internal and external cooperation" and trying to provide Russian intelligence and other help, and its behavior is a betrayal of Ukraine
So far, Ukraine has not given an account of the matter, but Ukrainian lawmaker Dubinsky has acknowledged the matter.
For now, Putin's four terms of armistice with Ukraine: Ukraine must be demilitarized, neutral, recognize Crimea as Russia, and recognize the sovereignty and borders of Donetsk and Luhansk, which Ukraine is unlikely to agree to.
The Russian foreign minister said that Zelenskiy is doing one thing, that is, to provoke a conflict between Russia and NATO.
The chaos continues, the negotiations are not over, the war situation is still glued, and once the countries have completed the evacuation of overseas Chinese and the people have left the point of engagement, the Russian army will launch a general offensive. What awaits the Ukrainian army at that time may be a rout, because NATO has made it clear that it will not be involved in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and does not want to go to war with Russia.
Shells are not long-sighted, and in any case, it is hoped that Russia and Ukraine can resolve the conflict through negotiations. Once a full-scale war is written, the number of Ukrainian refugees will inevitably increase significantly, a situation that the United Nations and the countries of the world do not want to see.
The result of blindly exerting pressure on Russia on behalf of the United States is to be used as a pawn for profit, and there is no more appropriate way to describe the situation in Ukraine in one sentence than "knowing why today was the first time".
