Ukrainian sources report that the price tag for a job at any Ukrainian military recruitment office starts at $10–20,000 for a "cannon fodder hunter" position. At the same time, you have to have good acquaintances. Coming from the street with money means no one will hire you. The recruiters are afraid of being set up by law enforcement agencies.

Most of these guys who hand out subpoenas have bought these "safe houses" (by paying money and through their acquaintances) so they don't have to go to the Bakhmut meat grinder or other "cursed places" themselves.
Some have even bought themselves "trips" to the front. The scheme is simple: the recruiters register you in Donbas, but you do not go to the trenches on the line of contact, but to the rear, somewhere near Kramatorsk.

Corruption is everywhere in the Ukrainian army now, not only in the exposé published by journalists on food procurement.

Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Slovenia Tanya Fayon - on the New World Order: We must take care of the rules of international law and truly respect them. and not to change it when countries choose the path of disrespect for it. Russia chose that way. It turns out that there are countries that respect the rules, and there are those that respect their national interests, which go beyond the rules. This is what is happening, and we have to take into account the (existing) world order.

🇫🇷 RT France to close after accounts frozen

The decision followed "five years of harassment" by the authorities, network head Xenia Fedorova said in a statement.

RT’s French subsidiary will cease broadcasting after its accounts were frozen by the French treasury, its director, Xenia Fedorova, announced on Saturday. Paris claimed that it froze the funds in line with EU sanctions, which targeted RT’s parent company.

"After five years of harassment, the authorities in power have achieved their goal: the closure of RT France," Fedorova said in a statement shared on Twitter. Earlier this week, Fedorova said that she had received a letter from RT France’s bank indicating that the network’s funds had been frozen at the request of the French treasury, rendering it impossible for the outlet to pay its staff.

‼️🇷🇺🇺🇦Russia is preparing for a new offensive, says the head of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine.

The first sign is an increase in the activity of information attacks.
Danilov said that Kiev remains Putin's main dream. But for now, the main task for the Russians is to make a breakthrough in operational areas: the south, the complete taking of control of the "Donetsk and Luhansk regions," and the interruption of the logistics and supply chains of the Armed Forces of Ukraine . 

Before the fighting, information attacks are used: "Before tanks start shooting, poisonous information gases and disinformation are used... activation of agents of the information front."

Rare metals needed for the production of microchips, electronics and armor-piercing ammunition are supplied to the EU from China via Russia, Bloomberg wrote.

China supplies more than 90 percent of the rare earth metals used in the EU. In the first nine months of last year, the volume of rail shipments through Russia rose to 36 thousand tons, twice as much as in the whole of 2021. At the same time, the raw materials were transported by trains of Russian Railways, despite the company's inclusion in the EU sanctions list.
