To me it looks like perfect semi-volunteer recruits for the Ukrainian/NATO “SMO” if they desire to stir trouble and throw a few punches, so be it. Help them get the hormones under control and they can fight…

Does Dagestan have their own war machine like Chechnya?

I am not sure, but a good idea to create a “recruiting office” and sign them up…

❗️ The Chairman of the State Duma instructed the relevant committees to investigate and assess the events in Dagestan.

Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin at a plenary meeting on October 31 instructed the Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption and the Committee on Information Policy, Information Technologies and Communications to prepare a protocol instruction. They must understand the events that occurred in Dagestan and evaluate them.

“You and I understand perfectly where the customers of the processes that are taking place in the world are located ,” noted Vyacheslav Volodin. “ The USA, Ukraine, their intelligence services are behind this, this has already been established. Look at what they did through their hirelings in Ukraine, through this disgrace of the Jewish people – Zelensky, by launching a campaign on social networks with the aim of involving people in it for pogroms of Jews.”

“In Israel, the United States protects Jews, but in our country they wanted to incite the citizens of our country in Dagestan against the Jews. The “Morning of Dagestan” telegram channel was administered from Ukraine, and behind it are Ukrainian special services, which operate under the direct supervision of the US CIA,” he added.

“So let’s figure it out and give an assessment. We need to do everything to ensure that our citizens do not fall under the influence of those social networks behind which Washington and Brussels stand, and through which unfriendly countries are trying to create conflicts on our territory , on our Russian soil. By pitting one nationality against another, creating conflicts,” added the Chairman of the State Duma.

The United States will have to compensate Cuba for the losses incurred during the decades of the blockade, the Chairman of the State Duma said.

At the plenary meeting, State Duma deputies unanimously supported the draft resolution , which called for “an immediate and complete end to the economic, trade and financial blockade of the Republic of Cuba , organized by the leadership of the United States of America and which has become a method of multifaceted pressure on the Cuban people.”

“The world must be multipolar, and the sanctions that the United States of America announced to Cuba will not lead to anything good. The US will still have to pay the costs. This is a lot of money: $159 billion. This is the assessment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba,” said Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin.

He recalled that last year the UN General Assembly considered the issue of lifting these sanctions for the thirtieth time, and every year there are more and more supporters of this decision. There are only two countries left that oppose it: the USA and Israel.
