Nord Stream pipeline to be switched off for 10 days due to planned annual maintenance and will take place from July 11 to July 21…

~~ Now Germany is crying about a gas crisis? How bad Russia is? Why Russia so mean to Germany?

For your information, Germany has two “Nord Streams” available. Nord Stream 2 was built to stop issues of ever having a gas crises!

The simple answer would be to open Nord Stream 2…

Therefore, to bring on a gas shortage within the western world required great talent and skill…

~~ Who knew that the USA and EU were so talented? ~~

Speech by the President of the Russian Federation at the BRICS Summit

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: President Xi Jinping, President Ramaphosa, President Bolsonaro, Prime Minister Modi, ladies and gentlemen,

To begin with, I would like to join the previous speakers in thanking President of the People’s Republic of China Xi Jinping and all our Chinese friends for their proactive efforts this year to promote our strategic partnership within BRICS.

The countries that form this group have been seeking to step up their cooperation on all global and regional matters. The BRICS format has been consistently increasing its prestige and international influence. This is an objective process, since the five BRICS countries, as we all know, have immense political, economic, scientific, technical and human potential. We have everything we need to work together and achieve results for ensuring global stability and security, sustained growth and prosperity, and better well-being for our people.

I believe that the topic of today’s meeting, Foster High-Quality BRICS Partnership, Usher in a New Era for Global Development, is very relevant. Considering the complexity of the challenges and threats the international community is facing, and the fact that they transcend borders, we need to come up with collective solutions. BRICS can make a meaningful contribution to these efforts.

We have repeatedly said that challenges like conflict settlement, the fight against terrorism and organised crime, including the criminal use of new technologies, climate change, and the spread of dangerous infections, can only be addressed through joint efforts.

And, of course, it is only on the basis of honest and mutually beneficial cooperation that we can look for ways out of the critical situation that has emerged in the world economy because of the ill-conceived and selfish actions of certain states, which, by using financial mechanisms, are actually shifting their own macroeconomic policy mistakes onto the rest of the world.

We are confident that today, as never before, the world needs the BRICS countries’ leadership in defining a unifying and positive course for forming a truly multipolar system of interstate relations based on the universal norms of international law and the key principles of the UN Charter. In this context, we can count on support from many states in Asia, Africa and Latin America, which are seeking to pursue an independent policy.

I am sure that by tradition the present BRICS Summit will be substantive and effective, and that we will manage to hold a frank and detailed exchange of views on all the most important global and regional issues and various aspects of strategic partnership, including in the extended dialogue format of BRICS+.

Let me stress: Russia is ready to continue promoting close and versatile interaction with all BRICS partners and contributing to the group’s greater role in international affairs.

Thank you for your attention.

🏳️🇺🇦 Surrendered AFU servicemen reveal low staffing level in units, bad supply of units isolated in Gorskoye, desertion of commanders and inability to contact them

💬 “…The only way for us to stay alive was to surrender. It was confirmed by several servicemen of the Russian Federation Armed Forces. We were clearly visible without seeing the enemy. If we hadn’t surrender, we would have been killed without a fight…”

The rule of law, transparency, responsiveness, consensus-building, equity and inclusivity, effectiveness and efficiency, accountability, and participation are the eight main components of good governance. This term “good” is easily twisted and manipulated. Thus, can easily become “bad” and they use what is seemingly innocent to your populace against your people in many forms and ways. The West has practised constantly on their own populace and are very well trained in it…

These governances are what the West uses against countries as the West tries to destroy those counties…

The main thing is that the West does to itself and her own people, exactly what they do to you. So retaliation has to come in other forms and ways. The West is dumbed down against self-abuse and thrives in ignorance of its populace…

Russia must look sooner than later at ways to counter the Western society destruction, enveloped within the above governance styled acceptance of usage…

Never forget that the West wants you dead Russia…

It is time and Russia must become Pro-Active and Extrovert at everything…

The court sytem in the DPR found Aslin, his compatriot Shaun Pinner, and Moroccan Saaudun Brahim guilty and have sentenced them to death. The three men, were found guilty of mercenarism, terrorist offenses and also attempting to overthrow the government of the republic DPR…

Britain has sent a letter and the letter was so disgusting, that DPR and Russia cannot understand the sick mentality behind the British Government…

The letter in no way helps the three Brits, since all the letter did was confirm the western hate Russia at all cost syndrome…

All that the Russian ambassador to the UK, Andrey Kelin said was…

“The message from London was written in extremely arrogant, instructive terms. It doesn’t make us want to cooperate on these issues.”

Never forget, these three Brits were paid by Britain to kill Russians in DPR. They admit it and they are mercenaries…

Whom, have no rights in a war situation, as regular soldiers would…

They took the money and now they pay it back…

P5: Farewell songs of the political pygmies of Pindostan (non-Pelevin)

I will speak out on a topic on which it was not customary to speak out. It’s about foreign colleagues. Today, however, it has become quite acceptable. This is done both by us and by them. The reasons are clear.

I have been communicating with foreign leaders for a long time and I see how much the level of Western politicians has fallen. This has been happening literally before my eyes for the last twenty years. It is obvious that there are no political figures of the level of Helmut Kohl, Jacques Chirac or Margaret Thatcher left in Europe. Of course, we are not talking about those who were sometimes called pro-Russian figures, although strong politicians have never been Russophobes. The question is completely different. The political stratum of people who personified a powerful political course, and sometimes an entire era, was replaced by a stunted growth of people who conventionally call themselves technocrats. Some of them are quite qualified specialists, but no more. And that’s the problem! Such people are able to correctly formulate an idea, give precise instructions to assistants. But they are not able to take responsibility. They will hide, cheat, refer to instructions, to the conjuncture, even to climate change, but they will not make a decision. Or they will be accepted with a catastrophic delay. And this is a complete disaster.

A real politician is not afraid to make decisions. Yes, he can make a mistake and even lose. But it will be a worthy loss. Every leader is unique, but a politician is someone who is able to make an unpopular decision and be responsible for it. And who understands that international relations is not the office of a provincial director of a European school, where students are slapped and sanctioned.

No offense to anyone, but it’s obvious to everyone that Mario Draghi is not Silvio Berlusconi, and Olaf Scholz is not Angela Merkel. These are new people and a new era of public administration, which, in my opinion, is far from the best. In the EU, for example, there are moderate technocrats, and there are rabid fanatics. They are almost equally divided. Large countries,

For so long we have heard nothing but 1st World and 3rd World. Our world according to the West is they are 1st World and everyone else is 3rd World and or developing 3rd World…

Yet, it was Alfred Sauvy whom seems to have given the terms there lasting acceptance and he acknowledged a 2nd world. It seems that since the CCCP fell so did the use of, “2nd World”…

The Three Worlds, or the Division of Social Scientific Labor, Circa 1950-1975 – Carl E. Pletsch – is a link to an article to tie all this together and support the western desire to be 1st World…

Since we have seemingly embraced the “Cold War Mentality” again? I suspect that it is time to change the labeling of countries the term “Second World”, has been excluded from usage – but this time it should be applied it to the USA and Europe (EU) and or Western Empire of Lies…

Personally, no labels should be applied at all, yet knowing the desires of the West (We are #1), we must set labels now to put things in perspective appropriately…

The New CCCP (USSR or Soviet Union) is the USA and the EU. They have embraced the desires they fought many years ago and not even the good parts of the old Soviet, just the parts that they desire to use against their people…

But that is not what this is about. This article is about putting labels where they belong. 1st World no longer, as it has been no longer associated with the USA and EU for many years. But they continued to use it, as if they ruled the world!

What we have claimed to be? Is no longer what is! Was it ever viable in the first place?

First step is to put the USA and EU as 2nd World countries. Maybe that is a bit late in the game to apply that label? For at the rate they are falling? Maybe, 3rd World would fit better and or “Banana Republics” would fit also…

Let us just put it like this: 1st World was Western countries, 2nd World the Soviet Union and 3rd World everyone else. Then in the western mindset, the world became only 1st and 3rd World after the Soviet collapse…

That above statement is in very simplified form and is accurate enough for the mindset of the Empire of Chaos and Lies!

So using what I see as Alfred Sauvy’s ideas: (Just as they was used in the past.)

China is now 1st World. Russia is still 2nd World. The USA and EU or as they claim, The Western World is now at best relegated to 2nd World status. The 3rd World or Developing World will soon have new members. The USA for one is trying its best to join that fan-club of labels developed for countries like Zimbabwe…

So the prediction for the long run:

The East is becoming 1st World, The West is becoming 3rd World and Russia is always and has always been happy right in the middle and just leave her alone. Russia and whom she gathers back into her folds and arms will stay 2nd World…

The future cannot be predicted, it can be altered and manipulated to some extent, but we don’t have the ability to predict the future. I just base this idea of mine on what is happening and what I see as facts. This change of labels has happened, we just have not allowed ourselves to embrace this change…

China is so far advanced in 90% of everything that the USA and EU look like children who throw all the sand out of their sandbox and sit in the mud crying for more sand. Except the sand is being used at the new playgrounds and new constructions going on. China is now 1st World…

Russia has shown the power of the label 2nd World and that is akin to the intelligent bouncer at the door at the fancy restaurant and no rift raft allowed. Russia is respected and smart, but has no desire to be the King of the world. Russia likes to sleep in its Bear Den and be left alone and raise its children to have morals and intelligence…

The USA and EU are the ones standing with bribe money that they printed at home, little pieces of paper and want to buy their way in and or fight their way in. They are thugs. Thugs are 3rd World in my book…

Get ready western world! The roller coaster is a wild one…

I believe I may expand upon this thinking later as I study it more. This is a serious issue and has repercussions way beyond the simplification that I have given it. Yet, we have to start somewhere in our thoughts and this is what I have in my mind…
