⁣Now you’re using your brain.

This is a very dangerous situation.

Which is why Russia is changing its nuclear posture toward preemptive action.

Which makes nuclear war more likely, not less.

⁣I hope all Americans realize that Zelensky is an existential threat to our survival.

His “victory plan” is a suicide pill that can only lead to a nuclear war with Russia.

America needs to terminate our relationship with this man.

And if we want to help Ukraine, we need to end this war.

With a plan derived from reality.

Not the chemically altered fantasies of a madman.

72 MINUTES BEFORE THE COMPLETE EXTINCTION OF THE PLANET
Interview for Gegenpol

Germany must take the initiative and propose a new arms control program to Europe.

Germany must remove Zelensky from power to prevent a nuclear war.

Germany and NATO must stop considering the possibility of Russia's military defeat.

Russia is not a threat to Germany and NATO.

Germany must stop discussing defeating Russia.

China has announced a serious increase in its threat level.

The German Navy sent two ships through the Taiwan Strait.

This happened in not international waters, raising questions about their legitimacy.

China could have sunk the German ships, but did not.

Germany is no longer a military power and has no right to project power.

China may stop cooperating with Germany, which will lead to economic and political problems.

Germany must rethink its policies and become a strong leader in the economic and diplomatic spheres.

VOTKINSK FACTORY IS 265 YEARS OLD, THIS MONTH
[Ru]

The Votkinsk Factory plays an important role in Russian defense industry. This video provides a unique look at a factory and city that exists largely out of view from the West.

In honor of Votkinsk’s 265th Birthday, here is a special exchange I had with someone who had read my book, Disarmament in the Time of Perestroika, which covers my work as an inspector implementing the INF Treaty at the Votkinsk Factory from 1988-1990:

“Hi Scott,

I finished the book yesterday. What a great read!

Needless to say, such a personal to me subject was a great hook. Some things even made me feel sentimental.

I loved reading the history of the VMBP. As I mentioned, both my parents worked there in the KB, department 120 back then. I remember my dad going to Plesetsk many times and they referred to the rockets in their conversations at home as “izdelie” - product. Back then I had no clue what they were talking about 😂 and did not care that much…

It was very interesting to learn what was happening at the same time on “the other side” reading about your childhood and youth.

The book’s multi-dimensional structure of the personal, local, national and global shows how individual people are affected by history but also make that history. It made me feel that I was a tiny part of something so significant.

Made me also think about how life turns sometimes. Take my parents, building rockets never imagining these rockets will be aiming at the country where their daughter will end up living. And now my oldest daughter signed up for Air Force ROTC program in college and may end up serving. I get a little sick imagining there maybe a open war between the two countries and she might end up fighting her cousins or my friends’ children… 😬🫣 Of course, she calms me down, says, Mama, don’t worry, it’s Chair-Force! 😂

Of course, all the personal details about life and people in the book add fun and personality, help you get the feel for the time and space.

I was touched to read your thoughts after Leninski Put learned about your comments to an American newspaper (forgot which one, tried to look for it in the book now, but it’s taking too much time) it was about “friendly but not friends” policy… it’s a great quality to be able/willing to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and try to understand what they may be feeling/ thinking. We should all be doing more of it!

One problem though… I am not sure why you decided not to mention in the book the fact that you met your wife in Votkinsk, and I can think of several reasons for you not to, but knowing about this and not seeing it in the book left me feeling like, Hey, there’s more to this story! From Russia with love! 😁

All in all, a great book, Scott, really great, Zayabis great! 😂😂😂👍👍
THANK YOU!”

Thank you for the kind words about the book. It’s literally just the reaction I was hoping for. Regarding Marina and I, I decided to stay true to the chronology. While we were “friends” in Votkinsk, there was no romance—that took place after I left the Marine Corps, after the war. Since the goal of the book was to tell the history of the times as accurately as possible, I kept the narrative to the facts at hand, and as such Marina was but one of a large cast of Soviet characters. I’m sure someday I’ll write about our journey to becoming man and wife, but it would have been a distraction to the narrative of this book. Sorry, no “from Russia with love” subplot—at least not while I was an inspector!
