After the escalation of the crisis in Ukraine, the situation was violently shaken, and there were undercurrents behind the scenes.
This week, Xinhua News Agency broadcast a series of blockbuster videos "Satellite Investigation: The Black Hand Behind the Russia-Ukraine Conflict" in 15 languages, including Chinese, English, French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, Italian, and Korean, taking audiences at home and abroad to take satellites as "eyes" and facts as "rulers", through high-altitude overlooks, repeatedly compared images, and accurate and reliable data, constantly solving mysteries and revealing the background and root causes of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
After the three episodes of the video were broadcast, it generated strong repercussions, with 420 million views on the entire domestic network, a total of 923 users publishing this set of investigative reports; the number of views of overseas communication platforms exceeded 10 million, and the media in various countries paid close attention to it, forwarded and quoted it, and the number of interactions exceeded 200,000, becoming another phenomenal work.
On VK, the largest social media platform in Russia and CIS countries, satellite investigative reports were viewed more than 500,000 times, and the Belarusian state news agency account quickly forwarded them. The website of Brazil's daily Pernambuco newspaper, a long-established newspaper in Latin America, forwarded a series of investigative videos, which were completely adopted by mainstream media such as the website of Kazakh Business News, Nova News Agency in Italy, and Lazio TV.
The satellite survey has also been launched on major Japanese Internet platforms and mobile terminals, such as the MSN website, the AFPBB website of AFPBB, and Japan's news platform owned by Kyodo News. NAVER and Seoul News, one of the largest portals in South Korea, have also been reprinted by websites such as Indonesia News World Network, 24-hour News Network, Thailand's "Vanguard" and New TV, and Turkish News Network.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin retweeted the report on his Facebook account with a comment: "What do the United States and its allies really want? Is it the end of the Ukrainian crisis, or is it self-interest? ”
Korzhumbayev, editor-in-chief of Kazakh Business Daily, said the Xinhua satellite survey "clearly reveals who are the ultimate beneficiaries of the outbreak and escalation of this conflict." Mustafa, head of Turkey's Lotus News Network, said that the satellite investigation video is well-produced and fully exposes the role played by the United States and the West in the conflict.
Netizens from all over the world have forwarded and commented on the post, expressing strong resonance with the truth revealed.
The months-long satellite survey spanned global latitude and longitude, going back 70 years, tracking hundreds of clues, reviewing thousands of satellite imagery and revealing 20,000 key pieces of data. Combined with the personal accounts and important testimonies of experts, scholars and political dignitaries from many countries around the world, the outline of the driving force behind the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is becoming clearer and clearer.
The investigative opening scene brings the audience an extraordinary experience with a shocking perspective on space. In the first episode, viewed from the sky over Ukraine, the light on the ground gradually dims throughout the year.
In the second episode, US military bases all over the world, and a large number of US weapons and equipment were shipped to the Ukrainian front line after the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
In the third episode, the number of natural gas carriers from the United States to Europe increased sharply in 2022, and the trajectory of the journey was densely connected to the coastlines of North America and Europe.
In addition to these stunning satellite images, the high density of visual data in the three episodes is also an important element that audiences will like, and the principle of "Show, not tell" is self-explanatory.
For the root cause of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and the consequences of NATO's eastward expansion, netizens have their own judgment.
In 2004 and 2014, there were two "color revolutions" in Ukraine, and the US State Department publicly acknowledged that it played a "central role" in these "regime changes". After the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict in February 2022, the United States has recklessly started big business, crackling the abacus, sanctioning Russia and instigating Ukraine in many fields such as arms, energy, and food, "arching fire" on the other side, stirring up trouble, earning European money while harming the European people.
Netizens from all over the world have left messages accusing the United States of the plot behind its calculations.
During the year, Russia and Ukraine, the European region and even countries around the world were forced to pay for the selfishness and greed of the United States to varying degrees. Except for politicians and businessmen who have malicious intentions and profit from it, the people of the world hope to calm down the conflict and restore tranquillity as soon as possible.
China has reiterated on many diplomatic occasions that the international community should focus on persuading peace and promoting talks, encouraging Russia and Ukraine to return to negotiations, and accumulating conditions for an early ceasefire and cessation of the war. In China's Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukraine Crisis, released on February 24, China stated that it should respect the sovereignty of all countries, abandon the Cold War mentality, cease fire and stop the war, start peace talks, resolve the humanitarian crisis, stop unilateral sanctions, and promote post-war reconstruction. Netizens also expressed this desire.
Kyrgyz political commentator Shestakov said: "All countries should agree with the just position of the Chinese government, which represents peace." ”
