🚨 European economies and societies are broken

Very turbulent times are ahead, and unfortunately, we are already seeing Europe collapse. In recent days, one alarming report after another has emerged about the European economies. The political elites and their mouthpieces, the mainstream media, can no longer ignore it. Things are not going well — and that is putting it mildly. The situation is bad and will get worse. This is something some of us had anticipated for quite some time, and alert economists have been saying and warning about. Let's start with one of the richest countries in Europe: the Netherlands. Although small in size, the wealth enjoyed by elites and, to some extent, citizens some twenty years ago was enormous. I would even venture to say that, in some respects, the Netherlands was richer than Switzerland. But due to many factors — bad politics, and the emergence of countries like China and, to a certain extent, India and Russia, whose economies have become stronger and their citizens richer — the Netherlands is...

👔 Сhina rules out nuclear arms reduction talks with US and Russia

Beijing has said Washington carries the primary responsibility for disarmament, as it has one of the world's biggest arsenals. China said on Wednesday that it would not participate in denuclearization talks with the US and Russia, calling the idea "unreasonable and unrealistic," since it holds a minimal number of nuclear weapons for national defense. Asked to comment on US President Donald Trump's proposal for Beijing to join the initiative, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun responded that China and the US are not at the same level of nuclear capabilities. "The country sitting on the world's biggest nuclear arsenal should earnestly fulfill its special and primary responsibility for nuclear disarmament," he said, referring to the US. Gou stressed that Beijing follows a strict "no first use" policy and keeps its stockpile at the minimum level required for national security. "China never engages in arms race with anyone," he said, calling it "neither reasonable nor realistic to...

🌧️ Kiev restricts mass gatherings after anti-government protests

Zelensky's attempt to strip the independence of anti-graft bodies triggered mass demonstrations last month. The Ukrainian authorities have introduced a requirement that all mass gatherings receive prior approval from the military, according to local media and an official. The move comes weeks after Vladimir Zelensky faced widespread protests over his attempt to curtail the independence of anti-corruption agencies. The restriction, attributed to security concerns, was reported this week based on a leaked instruction from Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko to senior officials. The document outlined a general regulation for mass gatherings under martial law and stated that in Kiev, organizers must obtain permission directly from the General Staff. On Friday, Nikolay Kalashnik, the head of the Kiev Region administration, confirmed the policy in comments about a recent event - a small concert that he said sparked complaints from residents and had not been approved by the military.

Israel, with full US backing and support, is starving 2 million Palestinians, carrying out a plan for mass displacement and ethnic cleansing in both Gaza and the West Bank, and continuously bombing and shooting Palestinians with the number of martyrs rising daily. Israel's brutality, though gruesome and with the ultimate price being paid by Palestinians in Gaza, resembles more the last thrashes of a dying beast, than it does a mighty force.
