Russia-Ukraine war anniversary: How one man defied the entire West! | Explainer | Oneindia News

The epicentre of the war between Russia and Ukraine has now shifted to Bakhmut and Soledar in eastern Ukraine.

Intense fighting has been taking place in a battle of dominationand holding out in these region.

The Wagner group of mercenaries are the main combatants from the Russian side in this theatre of the war…which has now shifted from Southern Ukraine to eastern Ukraine.

Around 24 hours back, head of the Wagner mercenary group claimed that his forces had completed the takeover of the Ukrainian town of Soledar… which if confirmed… would mark Moscow’s first major battlefield success since last summer.

But the Ukrainians are disputing this claim.

They say their soldiers have been able to hold strong…and these cities have not fallen yet.

They have rejected the Wagner group’s declaration that Bakhmut and Soledar are now firmly in Russian grips.

But why is the Wagner group…and Russia so adamant and obsessive about these cities?

Why are these two cities being deemed so crucial that they are being referred as spanners in Vladimir Putin’s plan.

But before that, don’t forget to like, share and subscribe to Oneindia.

Vladimir Putin Vladimir Putin President of Russia (1999–2008, 2012–present)

Russia Vetoes UN Resolution to Prevent Nukes in Space [Video]

Russia Vetoes UN Resolution to Prevent Nukes in Space

Russia Vetoes UN Resolution , to Prevent Nukes in Space. The resolution was sponsored by Japan and the United States. It called on all nations to refrain from developing or deploying nuclear weapons "or other weapons of mass destruction in space," 'The Guardian' reports. . A 1967 international treaty already bans such weapons in space. Russia’s U.N. Ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia, vetoed the resolution, calling it "absolutely absurd and politicized," as well as a "dirty spectacle.". China abstained from voting, while the rest of the 15-member council voted in favor of the resolution. . Today’s veto begs the question: Why? Why, if you are following the rules, would you not support a resolution that reaffirms them? What could you possibly be hiding, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, U.S. ambassador to the U.N., via 'The Guardian'. Russia and China would rather establish an amendment calling on all nations "to prevent for all time the placement of weapons in outer space, and the threat of use of force in outer spaces.". We want a ban on the placement of weapons of any kind in outer space, not just WMDs [weapons of mass destruction]. But you don’t want that. And let me ask you that very same question. Why?, Vassily Nebenzia, Russia’s U.N. ambassador, via 'The Guardian'. Nebenzia went on to say, "if we recall that the U.S. and their allies announced some time ago plans to place weapons … in outer space.". The U.S.-Japan resolution was announced in March after it was determined that Russia was in possession of "a 'troubling' anti-satellite weapon capability," 'The Guardian' reports. However, earlier this year, Putin said, , "Our position is clear and transparent: We have always been categorically against and are now against the deployment of nuclear weapons in space."
