Brezhnev led the Soviet Union for 18 years, from 1964 to 1982, longer than any Soviet leader except Stalin. He spent his summers at a state residence on the Black Sea coast near Yalta, where he swam, sunbathed and still kept up with the business of running the country. This photo was taken just months before his death. By then, his health had been fail RT by @mikenov: Jared Kushner wanted Ukraine to stop striking Russian oil refineries. Zelenskyy had other plans. While American negotiators were reportedly pressuring Ukraine to pause its attacks on Russian oil facilities, Ukraine continued its long-range strikes against Russia’s energy infrastructure. And honestly, I love the message Zelenskyy is sending: Ukraine is not going to sit quietly while Russia continues bombing its cities, destroying its infrastructure, and killing its people. Why should Ukraine be expected to hold back while Russia faces no such restraint? Why should Kyiv sacrifice one of its most effective ways of putting pressure on Moscow simply because Washington wants to mak RT by @mikenov: 🚨BIG BREAKING 🇮🇱 MOSSAD CHIEF IN WASHINGTON #Israel pushes for renewed military action against Iran as intelligence chief Roman Gofman meets #CIA Director #JohnRatcliffe.

His sharpest line is aimed at allies: “those who want to ration Ukraine’s resources ultimately want to force it into an unjust peace.” He called that “the recipe for the next war.” The French-led declaration adopted at the European Political Community summit in Dublin reaffirms the right of every state “to choose whether or not to participate in treaties, alliances, or international organizations.” That is a direct answer to the Ru RT by @mikenov: This historical photograph shows members of the exiled Ottoman imperial family gathered in Cairo, Egypt, during the mid-1940s following the 1924 abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate and their expulsion from Turkey…. • Standing (left to right): Princess Hanzade Sultan, followed by male and female family members and Egyptian royal relatives including Prince Abdelmoneim and Prince Muhammed Ali Ibrahim. • Seated in front (left to right): Princess Sabiha Sultan, Princess Fevziye, Princess Neslişah Sultan, Princess Hümeyra (Okday), Prince Osman Fuad (seated on the floor), and Princess Nilüfer Hanımsultan. • Seated in the back row: Ceyda Rateb Hanım and Princess Samire. Following th RT by @mikenov: 🇫🇮🇺🇦🇷🇺 FINLAND’S PRESIDENT JUST TURNED PUTIN’S OWN WORDS AGAINST HIM. Putin keeps insisting that peace requires addressing the “root causes” of the war. Finnish President Alexander Stubb has a rather different interpretation. If Moscow genuinely wants to address the cause of the conflict, Stubb argues, it should start with Russia’s own decision to invade Ukraine. It’s a pointed response to the Kremlin’s familiar argument that NATO expansion and Western policies are responsible for the war. The distinction matters: Russia’s security grievances can be discussed, but they do not erase its responsibility for launching the invasion. And Stubb’s response exposes the central d RT by @mikenov: ❗️Republican Senator Tom Cotton, Chairman of the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee, sharply rejected Russia’s demand for NATO forces to withdraw from the borders of member states, calling it “preposterous.” “NATO nations withdrawing from their own borders is a preposterous demand by Russia. Putin has proved once again that he’s not serious about a negotiated peace. Further talks are a farce at this point. Putin will only agree to stop the war when he knows he can’t win.

Auf gut Deutsch: ihn aus den Weg zu räumen. In einem Krieg wie dem in der Ukraine ist jedoch momentan alles möglich. Wer von Anfang an mit dabei ist, der weiß, dass das “Ausschalten” von Zelensky schon öfters diskutiert wurde. Sogar über seine Nachfolger wurde spekuliert. Allerdings kommt derzeit etwas völlig Neues hinzu. Die Hauptstadt Kiew steht nach schweren Luftangriffen kurz vorm Kollaps. Die Bevölkerung ist vollkommen aufgebracht und in sich gespalten.

RT by @mikenov: Leni Riefenstahl (1902–2003) was a German dancer, actress, and filmmaker whose pioneering cinematic techniques are permanently overshadowed by her role as a primary cinematic propagandist for Nazi Germany…. Born in Berlin, Riefenstahl trained as a dancer before a knee injury ended her stage career. She transitioned to acting in German “mountain films” (Bergfilm) such as The Holy Mountain (1926), and later directed her own critically praised feature, Das blaue Licht (The Blue Light, 1932). Adolf Hitler saw The Blue Light and was deeply impressed by her visual style.

At the top is an old demand that NATO pull its forces back to where they were in 1997, before Poland and the Baltic states joined. That would mean removing NATO forces from those countries. But Moscow wants more. No further NATO expansion, no Western weapons for Ukraine, and no British or French nuclear protection for other European countries. Poland has already rejected the demands. So Russia isn’t just asking for changes in Ukraine. It wants to change how much of Europe is defended.

Rather than acting as an agent of Moscow, al-Qaeda emerged directly from the anti-Soviet insurgency in Afghanistan during the 1980s and has repeatedly clashed with Russian forces.

According to a NY Times report, Moscow has circulated a new proposal in Ukraine talks demanding NATO pull its troops and bases back to their pre-expansion positions. And that’s not all. Russia also wants NATO expansion stopped, Western weapons deliveries to Ukraine halted, and major restrictions on NATO military activity across Eastern Europe. Poland’s PM Donald Tusk has already warned that accepting these demands would threaten his country’s security.

On Donbas, he said US negotiators asked for the first time: “What if Ukraine joins NATO and withdraws from Donbas?” Zelensky said Ukraine will not recognize occupied territory as Russian, but if Washington and other NATO members confirm a comprehensive package with concrete NATO and EU guarantees, funding for a strong army and a reconstruction plan, “then I will ask our society: do we accept it or not?” On neutrality, he was categorical: “Enshrining neutrality means you’re amending your country’s Constitution, and Ukraine won’t go do Egyptian Intelligence Connections Pre-9/11 al-Qaeda as a highly sophisticated intelligence and counterintelligence entity al-Qaeda as a highly sophisticated intelligence and counterintelligence entity al-Qaeda as a highly sophisticated intelligence and counterintelligence entity Analysis of the Declassified 9/11 PDBs: The signs of the skillful strategic deception RT by @mikenov: Esto es una completa basura inaceptable.

La Russia nell’ultima fase di colloqui ha consegnato agli Stati Uniti e alla NATO un documento in cui si chiede il ritorno dell’Alleanza alle posizioni del 1997 (fonte New York Times). Le richieste di Mosca includono il divieto di un’ulteriore espansione della NATO; la cessazione delle attività militari dell’alleanza in Ucraina, nell’Europa orientale, nel Caucaso meridionale e in Asia centrale; e il ritiro delle truppe dai paesi che hanno aderito alla NATO dopo il 1997, in particolare la Polonia e gli Stati baltici.
