### Krasnodar Refinery Fire, Russian Infrastructure Attacks

- **Published:** 2023-06-01

A drone attack on an oil refinery in Krasnodar highlights the increasing vulnerability of Russian infrastructure near the Black Sea. The proximity to Novorossiysk, a critical port for oil exports and the relocated Black Sea Fleet, forces Russia to divert resources for domestic defense. These strikes are interpreted as a strategy to pick away at Russia's logistical capabilities.

Russia suspends its participation in the UN-brokered grain export deal following a drone attack on its Black Sea fleet in Sevastopol. Ukraine denies responsibility, while Russia claims British specialists assisted in the operation. The hosts note that 30% of Ukrainian farmland is owned by Western multinationals like Cargill, making the halt in exports a direct hit to American corporate interests.

Former CIA Director David Petraeus appears on TRT World to discuss potential U.S. responses if Russia utilizes tactical nuclear weapons. Petraeus suggests a U.S.-led multinational conventional force could destroy Russian assets in Ukraine and the Black Sea fleet without resorting to a nuclear exchange. He emphasizes that such a response would be "catastrophic" for the Russian military.
