🇩🇪Two relatives of German Vice-Chancellor Robert Habeck were officers in Hitler's Germany, reports Bunte magazine.

Habeck's great-grandfather Kurt Granzow was a member of Hitler's inner circle, a friend of Goebbels and a convicted war criminal. And the current vice-chancellor's grandfather was an SA Obersturmführer.

Earlier, this magazine wrote that Foreign Minister Baerbock's grandfather had held an officer's rank during the Second World War and was "fully on the side of National Socialism".

So, what gives?

It certainly took the NYT a long time to admit that there is no freedom of the press in Ukraine. They can call it “narrowing” all they want, but they have known all along that, in reality, no freedom of the press exists in Ukraine, none whatsoever.

So why did they finally admit it now?

Given that the NYT is the “official” newspaper of American hypocrisy, the answer has definitely nothing to do with their conscience. And considering that the NYT is tightly controlled by the deep state, this admission is definitely not made without the deep state’s approval or even directive.

The only explanation is that the NYT is preparing the public for some change. No, of course, America is not going to change its plan to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian. Why would they? But they may very well be preparing the public for a change in the cast of characters—starting with the already expired “president” Zelensky, who just flunked the so-called Ukrainian Peace Summit. Not to mention that Ukraine has already passed the new mobilization law, and their mobilization age will undoubtedly go down very soon. Once that happens, there will be absolutely no reason to keep Zelensky around or even alive.

Judging by the timing of this NYT article, we should see some interesting developments shortly. So, keep your front-row seat.

FT: Xi said US is trying to ‘goad Beijing’ into attacking Taiwan

China’s President Xi Jinping told European Commission head Ursula von der Leyen that Washington was trying to “goad Beijing into attacking Taiwan,” the Financial Times said in a report based on the information from people familiar with the matter.

According to the daily, Xi said the US was trying to trick China into invading Taiwan, but that he would not take the bait.

The revelation comes as tensions are high across the Taiwan Strait. China responded to last month's inauguration of Lai Ching-te as Taiwan’s new president with military drills around the island.

US administration says it remains committed to its longstanding one-China policy, but American officials have, in recent years, increased engagement with Taiwan.

🇾🇪 HOUTHIS CLAIM UKRAINIAN SHIP SUNK in days-old attacks on Israeli-linked ships in Red Sea, as seen in above footage of nearby ship observing tanker tanking, also announcing Greek Israel-linked ship Tutor has also sunk, leaving one crew member dead.

Not the first Houthi attack on Ukrainian ship - the Yemeni national resistance group, however, reassured Russian and Chinese ships they would be safe months prior.

🇺🇦🤡Supreme Podolyak's meltdown on X.

The signing of a "strategic military partnership" between the RF and the DPRK (and, in fact, a demonstrative pact on the joint destruction of global rules and organization of mass murder of civilians of other countries) is a unilateral and most brazen nullification of the entire package of international decisions, resolutions and restrictions imposed on the DPRK.
The Prohibitive Tools do not work at all. And this means that there are practically no more rules...
Against such a frank background, the silence of... the @UN and other organizations responsible for effective control over the implementation of sanctions looks extremely eloquent, I would say "deafeningly loud".
What's next? And what is global lawlessness? And what is the "UN resolution" now?
