Russian propagandists want Ukraine and Europe to pay reparations to Russia.

"And what reparations could Ukraine pay? Belgium will pay. France will pay. The Netherlands, too."

"Well, we’ll go after Belgium, France. We know perfectly well how this will end."

"We’ll pursue it at a military tribunal"

Friends,

Winter is coming. Russian attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure will increase.

Russia has ramped up drone production and is changing its attack tactics. There will be blackouts in winter. #Kyiv will be Russia’s main strategic and symbolic target⤵️
