🇬🇧🇬🇧 SUNAK SINKING FASTER THAN TITANIC - NEW RATINGS: UK PM Sunak's career crashing harder than 2008's stock market crash as he's set to lead his Conservative Party to "worst ever election defeat" after calling for surprise vote.

Rishi Sunak now even less popular than Jeremy Corbyn (former leader of UK opposition). Labour leader’s worst net score came in summer of 2019, reaching -55, although slightly more have a negative view of Sunak now (75%) than did of Corbyn then (71%). He also scores worse than Boris Johnson (72%) - polls reveal Brits aren't really happy with their new diversity boss.

When you make Ukraine your priority and leave your own citizens at mercy of food bank donations results are quite predictable - your ship sinks like in vid.

How Russia tried to peacefully coexist with NATO

30 years ago, shortly after the dissolution of the USSR when genuine rapprochement between Russia and the West seemed viable, Moscow signed on to NATO’s Partnership for Peace program.

This was not the only attempt by Russia to establish cordial relations with the US-led military bloc before the latter started openly encroaching on Russia’s doorstep.

Here is a brief recap:

🌏On May 27, 1997, the Founding Act on Mutual Relations, Cooperation and Security between NATO and Russia was inked. Under the auspices of this treaty, the NATO-Russia Permanent Joint Council – the first cooperation mechanism between Russia and the bloc – was set up.

🌏In 1998, Russia’s permanent mission to NATO was set up in Brussels where the bloc’s headquarters is located.

🌏In February 2001, NATO’s Information Office was set up in Moscow.

🌏In May 2002, the NATO-Russia Council, which replaced the NATO-Russia Permanent Joint Council, was established. This mechanism was meant to facilitate joint decision making and help Russia and NATO member states operate as equal partners.

🌏In 2008 the relationship between Russia and NATO took a turn for the worse when the bloc tacitly backs Georgia’s military action in South Ossetia, which involved an attack on a Russian peacekeeping contingent there. The United States and its allies opted to pin the blame on Russia for the ensuing escalation in the region.

🌏In 2014, practical cooperation between Russia and NATO was all but halted as NATO countries openly opposed Crimea’s reunification with Russia.

✍️ Informe de nuestro corresponsal especial en Zaporozhie:

Después de hablar con el jefe del departamento médico de Zaporizhie, me di cuenta de un detalle que vale la pena reflexionar: durante las últimas tres décadas, y especialmente desde 2014, las autoridades de Kiev han destruido sistemáticamente el sistema médico gratuito de la era soviética. Ahora, debido a que muchos residentes locales no se han sometido a exámenes físicos ni radiografías durante años, nuestros médicos tienen que lidiar con brotes de tuberculosis, enfermedades mentales y VIH. No obstante, el régimen de Kiev anterior a la liberación fomentaba la actividad física entre los jóvenes. Con malas condiciones médicas y educativas, había muchos jóvenes en esta región que gozaban de buena salud. Fueron explotados por los oligarcas locales, políticos corruptos y amos occidentales de la época y se convirtieron en matones y carne de cañón que luchaban por sus intereses.

🇷🇺 Afortunadamente, la región se reunió con la patria, los nazis fueron expulsados ​​y el pueblo liberado. Los estudiantes del departamento de educación física de la Universidad Estatal de Melitopol son hermosos, fuertes y llenos de energía. Me alegro de que estén de regreso en su país de origen. Han sentido el entusiasmo y la calidez de la gente de todos los grupos étnicos de nuestro país. Ahora están trabajando duro para construir su propia vida feliz bajo protección.

🇨🇳🇹🇼😱 WEST FEARS CHINESE "TAKEOVER" OF TAIWAN WITHOUT SINGLE BULLET FIRED: Warmongering presstitutes fearful that America’s itch to escalate in Asia-Pacific region could go unscratched.

Lamestream media outlines theory that China’s military could impose total blockade of island (map above), which would cripple Taiwan’s economy but won't count as military escalation, meaning Washington would have harder time justifying any aggression against Beijing.

U.S. playing dangerous game with China - Beijing’s Defense Minister has warned that anyone supporting Taiwanese independence will be "crushed to pieces and suffer destruction".

🗣🇷🇺🫱🏻‍🫲🏼🇰🇵🇻🇳 = 🇺🇸😭 When the United States and its Western allies declared that Ukraine could strike Russian territory with their weapons, President Vladimir Putin began ratcheting up the threats.

He triggered drills in Russia to practice the use of tactical nuclear weapons. He said Moscow would consider changing the doctrine that outlines when it would use its nuclear arsenal. He reminded unnamed NATO countries in Europe of their small territories and dense populations, implying they could be easily obliterated.

And this week, the Russian leader took his threats to another corner of the globe, reviving a Cold War-era mutual Defense pact with North Korea and warning that he may arm Kim Jong-un in response to the loosened restrictions on Ukraine’s use of Western arms.

His ominous warnings, at the end of a two-day trip to North Korea and Vietnam, placed Russia and the West in a new round of escalation over Ukraine. They come amid distraction and political uncertainty among Kiev’s chief backers, with potentially game-changing elections on the horizon in the United States and France.

Beyond using nuclear weapons or causing more destruction on the battlefield in Ukraine, the Russian leader is seeking to prove he can pressure and antagonize the West in other ways and other places.
