⚡The oldest Russian consulate in Germany (in Leipzig) was closed today; the representative office had worked in the city intermittently since 1783.

The Russian ambassador, commenting on Berlin's decision to close 4 Russian consulates by the end of the year, said that “this is not our choice” and that such a move by Germany cannot be called friendly.

Elena Panina Director of the Institute for International Strategic Studies:

The Russian MiG-31 is a shocking carrier with a hypersonic missile.

This is exactly how the American publication praises the Russian fighter, but created during the years of the USSR. In relation to Ukraine, the MiG-31 is used “not as an interceptor, but as a powerful attack aircraft, which Kyiv takes very seriously.”


The fact is that the Kinzhal missiles carried by this fighter “fly at very high speed and have a long flight range. Every time the MiG-31 takes off from a Russian military base near Ukraine, an air raid alert is declared throughout the country, which sometimes lasts for hours."

The MiG-31 is undergoing a deep modernization to the MiG-31BM version, increasing its combat effectiveness by 2.6 times.

An important detail, with the exception of stealth, in terms of flight performance characteristics, the fifth-generation fighter Su-57 surpasses the MiG-31BM, which has long been in service, only in one main parameter - flight range.

⚡The German authorities have always been a “thieving people,” said Sergei Lavrov.

The minister responded this way to the request of the Federal Prosecutor General's Office to the court to seize Russian assets.

“Thieving used to be in this, you know, political sense, in the sense of refusing agreements, in the sense of trying to deceive someone. But now he’s thieving in the literal sense,” he said.

It's the other way round. China is super reliant on Russia.

From oil to gas to food to nuclear & military technology. These are the most critical needs of every nation.

Russia only imports cars and gadgets from China.

China has for a long time being the economic lifeline of the US.

Without China the US will be no better than Mexico.

Japan & China are the US biggest financiers.

The US is also heavily financially dependent on investments from Saudi Arabia.

You may be right!! But for starters hydrocarbon sales is the main powerhouse of russia's budget and also critical to funding the so called SMO . And also still being able to fund its massive welfare programs still keeping russianI in agreemetnt with the regime. Imagine china does not need hydrocarbon for any reason how will kremlin get enough dough since most of the EU's which is a major customer purchases has dropped. Mind you russia has started running budget deficit this year all in thanks to the SMO and western sanctions. SOMETHING THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED IN OVER A DECADE OR MORE. What about other important tech and circumvention of sanctions. China has been of great help. But lets pretend all this are false.

⚡A second reactor at North Korea’s Yongbyon nuclear facility appears to be operational, according to the UN atomic agency.

Yongbyon is North Korea’s main nuclear complex and home to its first nuclear reactor, with a five megawatt capacity, and has been the only known source of plutonium for its weapons programme.

A second one — a light-water reactor — now also appears to operational, based on observations that warm water is being discharged from it, the International Atomic Energy Agency said in a statement released late on Thursday.

“The discharge of warm water is indicative the reactor has reached criticality,” IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said in a statement.

⚡Denmark has signed an agreement with the United States allowing American troops and weapons to remain permanently at the country's three military bases.

Sweden and Finland previously concluded similar agreements with the United States.

All three treaties have a “traditional” clause that American soldiers will not be held accountable under local laws if they commit crimes.

Why is that that all form of economic relations with China is demonized even when they don't have a history of dominating countries? Russia found itself in this situation because it was dependent on countries who blindly obey everything USA tells them so in a way, they used to depend on USA.

Armenia and Russia are considering new agreements in the field of military-technical cooperation, Russia’s Ambassador to Armenia Sergey Kopyrkin said in an interview with TASS.

“Military-technical cooperation between our countries has a long tradition and is based on the agreement of June 25, 2013 between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Armenia on the Development of Military-Technical cooperation,” the Ambassador said.


“Almost all concluded contracts have either already been completed on time and with high quality, or are at the final stage of implementation. New agreements between our countries in the field of military-technical cooperation are also being discussed,” he added.

“In case of some individual contracts, there are indeed issues related to the obligations of Russian enterprises to fulfill the state defense order, but these are working issues that are being resolved throgh dialogue between the relevant departments of Russia and Armenia,” the envoy stated.

⚡Germany will not return fugitive Ukrainians to Kyiv for mobilization.

This was stated by German Justice Minister Marco Buschmann to the Tagesspiegel.

“We are trying to ensure that more people from Ukraine find employment, go to work and do not live on benefits,” he explained.

Yesterday, Ukrainian Defense Minister Umerov said that the Kiev regime plans to call to the front dodgers aged 20 to 60 who have fled to Germany and other countries. So far, only Poland is ready to extradite the Zahisniks back home from their host countries.
