“Managing editor Wyatt Reed, contributor Mohamed Elmaazi and regular freelancer Jeremy Loffredo worked for Russian state media before contributing to website.”
“Grayzone staff Blumenthal and Aaron Maté acted as briefers on behalf of the Permanent Mission of the Russian Federation to the United Nations at UN meetings organized by Russia.”
The first source for this claim: https://www.mid.ru/en/foreign_policy/news/1895632/
On June 29, 2023, a briefing on arms supplies to Ukraine was held at the UN Security Council at Russia’s initiative. The civil society briefers Russia invited included journalists Max Blumenthal (USA) and Chay Bowes (Ireland).
They provided facts about the Kiev regime using Western weapons to deliver strikes at civilian facilities in Donetsk and to send subversive groups into the Belgorod Region. They supplied evidence that billions of US taxpayer dollars have been invested in the corrupt schemes of fuelling a war against Russia in which Ukrainians are being used as a tool. They concluded that the Western elites and defence industries were the only ones to benefit from the escalation of the conflict.
Oh no, not journalists providing information at a public briefing! Don’t they know it’s time to do baby’s first McCarthyism!?
And none of these wrote the article.
The British still acting like they are an empire.
The British spooks who gathered around Project Alchemy reasoned that the longer the proxy war continued, the more Russian president Vladimir Putin’s “credibility at home and abroad drops, and his ability to fight NATO is degraded.”
Well, yeah. Don’t we all know that is the MO anyway? And not like it’s against Ukraine’s interests. Zelensky could surrender today if he wanted.
This. Ignoring the questionable source.
Other than denying Kerch bridge has anything to do with the UK. And they have provided 0 evidence to indicate it was.
Nothing they claim in any way disagrees with the UK open policy on Ukraine. Even if the UK blow Kerch bridge. It would be seen as supporting Ukraine’s own desire to keep their territory. Rather than anyway, proving that Ukraine would want to surrender without the UK “Plotting to keep them fighting”
Nothing here at all disagrees with the goals openly declared by the UK government. Under both current and previose leadership.
I have never heard of thegrayzone, are they out of the UK?
They write good news but almost all their news is from an anti-American perspective. For a different point of view they are not bad. Their reporting is always strongly researched. But using them as only news source will get you one-sided information.
Their reporting on Israel has been amazing.
