He recalled how on February 16, during a meeting in the Ramstein format, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin spoke of the Russian army as “a sort of gang of himself.”

Russian aviation near the borders
It is now known that Putin has concentrated all the existing Russian aviation near the borders with Ukraine.
He is preparing a psychic air force attack in several waves, the speaker noted.
The first wave is suicide, Japanese kamikaze. They will have to reveal all the positions of the Ukrainian air defense and die. The next wave should try to destroy the Ukrainian air defense. And then, as in Syria, the Russians want to bomb the city with high-explosive bombs with impunity, Piontkovsky said.
This was told to us by foreign intelligence agencies and they said that, of course, this idiotic plan would fail and also end in an air disaster, which was a tank attack near Ugledar. Piontkovsky added.
