China says reports on Chinese-Russian coordination on Ukraine 'fake news'

BEIJING, March 3 (Reuters) - The Chinese foreign ministry said on Thursday that reports on Chinese and Russian coordination ahead of Russia's attack on Ukraine are "fake news."

Such practices of diverting attention and shifting blame are "despicable", said Wang Wenbin, spokesperson at the foreign ministry, at a regular media briefing.

Senior Chinese officials told senior Russian officials in early February not to invade Ukraine before the end of the Winter Olympics in Beijing, the New York Times reported, quoting Biden administration officials and a European official who cited a Western intelligence report.

Ukraine’s Propaganda Offensive, Led By Ad-Tech Entrepreneurs

As Ukraine’s cyber army takes the war to Russian banks and government websites, it’s working with Elon Musk to set up satellite internet. Two former ad-tech entrepreneurs are leading the country’s information warfare charge. Outside experts think they’re winning.

A mere two weeks ago, the former advertising entrepreneurs who run Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation were focused on making the Kyiv government more accessible by smartphone. Last week, they organized a crowdsourced cyber army, claiming to have knocked Russia’s biggest bank off the internet. This week, it was back to smartphones. They’re distributing an app that’s essentially an air-raid siren to warn Ukrainians of Russian attacks from the sky.

CORRECTION: the ria.ru is not actually down.

My partner can access it on his phone. I cannot on mine. Neither on my laptop. We both use the same IP.

I suppose this is antivirus in action:


I don't have antivirus on my phone (why would anyone hack android?).

I just want to say, if somebody will hack my laptop, can they have a look, please, for issues. It's been acting slow recently.

When I think about it, should I tape my camera?

If you're female, absolutely cover the cameras with tape.

The only privacy we have today is what we fiercely hold onto.

I am a female... last time I checked. Sorry, I am getting lost in all these gender politics.

Why everything these days should be so complicated and confusing. Like this war, for example.

There are rumors that soldiers from the stalled Russian convoy are looting food. What do they have in that convoy then?

a reply to: wordforword

Russian troops are having fuel and food problems due to supply line issues. Russia is starting to use some of the airports they captured to bring in supplies. They are also setting up Forward Operating Bases (FOB's). However if the lack of supplies is close to accurate then Russia has problems.

From talking heads on tv - They said instead of doing an invasion from just one area they used 3 different areas. The supply lines were set up for a short war (1-2 weeks give/take). Since Ukraine decided to fight back its thrown the Russians for a loop.

Not to mention Ukraine has destroyed all of their rail outside (to other countries) rail connections, forcing Russia to deal with that. Ukraine also has Drones and have been using them to attack supply lines. They hit a rail shipment of fuel using drones a couple of days ago and Sheling from both side have hit oil/gas storage facilities.

a reply to: Xcathdra

Yep. It will take some time to get the logistics in good order. Hopefully, the spring rains come soon. Already sounds like the ops north of the coast are more or less roadbound because of mud.
