GLI UCRAINI VOGLIONO RISCRIVERE I LIBRI DI TESTO ITALIANI - Massimiliano Di Pasquale, direttore dell’ Osservatorio Ucraina presso l’istituto “Gino Germani” (istituto di ricerca finanziato dall'industria bellica e dagli USA, legato all'intelligence NATO, che gia' aveva compilato liste di proscrizione di politici e giornalisti italiani accusati di essere filorussi) vuole mettere all'indice pure i libri di scuola. Di Pasquale ha inviato al ministro dell’Istruzione Giuseppe Valditara un elenco di 13 libri sospetti ed è già all’opera per fare una ricerca più allargata. “Un gruppo di attiviste ucraine di Milano e Roma – racconta Di Pasquale – si è rivolto a Irina Cascei, giornalista ucraina che ci ha segnalato la questione." @LauraRuHK

Ukrainians want to rewrite Italian textbooks. They have teamed up with Atlanticist think tank Istituto Gino Germani (aka Fondazione Germani) to put pressure on Italian Minister of Education Giuseppe Valditara. @LauraRuHK https://lb.ua/world/2024/02/24/599796_italiyski_pidruchniki_mriya_putina.html

🇨🇳🇷🇺"In order to realize the immense potential of the partnership that is shaping the multipolar world order, public support and people-to-people relations are crucial. A welcome step in this direction is the designation of 2024-25 as Russian-Chinese Years of Culture.

The two-year project of cultural exchanges will kick off in May with a concert – Chinese and Russian folk-instrument orchestras will play together weaving threads of their traditions into one musical tapestry: a fitting metaphor for the kind of relations the two countries are developing. Cultural exchanges aim to foster a deeper and more nuanced understanding of each other’s social identities, values, aspirations and traditions, allowing social perceptions to reflect the present reality rather than be clouded by outdated stereotypes and misconceptions. Cultural cooperation, on the other hand, is a strategic concept: people work together to promote common interests or achieve common goals.

It will be exciting to follow and review the progress of Sino-Russian cultural relations in the next two years and see how they move to the cooperation level, but before the official program starts it might be useful to take stock of the past and present state of affairs, and indulge in a few reflections along the way." ▪️The wait is over. My latest article has been published. It's long. Very long. You'd better sit comfortably, pour yourself a drink and then start reading. Slowly. 😏 @LauraRuHK https://strategic-culture.su/news/2024/03/21/china-and-russia-are-taking-cultural-relations-to-next-level/

China and Russia are determined to safeguard their cultural traditions and consider history as the most vital, profound and enduring wellspring of strength for progress. They are building their future by preserving the past through a dialectical interplay of past and present. Dynamic and living civilizations don’t sever their roots, they instill a respect for the past and the achievements of previous generations. ▪️Culture is one of the pillars of China’s Five-Year Plan, meaning the government is making a concerted effort to support Chinese investment in this sector and is leveraging culture to enhance its governance, drive development and strengthen national identity. In Xi Jinping’s words: “Without full confidence in our culture, without a rich and prosperous culture, the Chinese nation will not be able to rejuvenate itself.”▪️If orientation towards the West was previously seen as a sign of modernization and progress in China and Russia, this is no longer the case. The decline in Western leadership is glaring and only those who are living in the Platonic cave created by Western media are unable to see it. ▪️If you want to share my essay on platforms that have banned Strategic Culture Foundation, please use this link to bypass their censorship. @LauraRuHK https://medium.com/p/ced41a872084

🇨🇳🇷🇺Lu Xun (1881-1936), a leading figure of modern Chinese literature, in 1932 wrote: "Russian literature has revealed to us the beautiful soul of the oppressed, his sufferings, his struggle". Lu Xun completed volumes of translations, notably from Russian. He particularly admired Nikolai Gogol, and made a translation of Dead Souls. His own first story's title, Diary of a Madman, was inspired by Gogol’s story of the same name. Lu played an important role in the development of modern Chinese literature, his books remain influential and popular today, both in China and internationally. @LauraRuHK

THE HOUTHI-CHINA-RUSSIA TRIAD

This is immense.

Deal reached in Oman.

Not only the Houthis are defeating thalassocracy: they have the Russia-China strategic partnership ON THEIR SIDE.

The Empire moves its puny pawn France?

Russia-China counter-attack with Ansarallah.

That's how you play chess/go.

The Houthis assured Beijing and Moscow their ships can sail through the Bab-al-Mandeb, Red Sea and Gulf of Aden with no problems.

In exchange, Russia and China offer total political support.

The road is paved for YEMEN to be considered as a serious candidate in the next BRICS+ expansion at the October summit in Kazan.

Ahah, today someone asked me why i wrote one very long article instead of three regular-size ones. My reply? Keep reading this Telegram channel, I am sure you will appreciate the character limit. I am a creature of excess, it's either long articles or short notes on Telegram. A long article condenses months of research and can be read in 15-20 minutes. It's like a meal. A post on Telegram is the equivalent of a snack. We can have both, can't we?

I follow many Telegram channels in several languages and to those who speak French, I highly recommend Laurent Michelon's channel https://t.me/la_realgeopolitik He focuses on China and its international affairs. Soon this wellspring of news and analyses will be available in English as well.
As you know, Western media outlets systematically distort everything related to China, that's why Laurent Michelon's work is so important. He is a China expert who has lived and worked in the country for 25 years. I met him and can testify that he is not a bot 😏
He is also on X, @LH_86_

⚡️At the UN Security Council Russia and China have vetoed the US resolution that linked ceasefire in Gaza to the release of hostages. Russia's Ambassador to the UN motivated his veto by saying:

▪️Gaza has been getting destroyed for 6 months and now the American representative acknowledges the need for a ceasefire.

▪️The US resolution on Gaza does not call for a ceasefire.

▪️The negotiations involving Americans regarding Gaza were only focused and directed towards procrastination.

▪️ If this resolution is adopted, it will close the discussion on the situation in Gaza and give "Israel" a free hand there. @LauraRuHK

Ukraine will remove Chinese companies from 'war sponsors' list under pressure from China and France

Last month Beijing had warned Kiev over the inclusion of more than 10 Chinese companies on the list of "international sponsors of war".

Such actions by Ukraine could negatively affect relations with China, the Chinese ambassador told senior officials in Kiev.

In October, Kiev listed 14 Chinese companies, including the largest energy companies - CNPC, Sinopec Group and CNOOC - as "international sponsors of war". (Source: Nikolai Vavilov) @LauraRuHK

⚡️Over 70 people killed in a terrorist attack in Moscow. Unfortunately the death toll may rise as 145 people have been hospitalized and at least nine of them are in grave condition. ▪️Crocus City, a large shopping center and music venue northwest of the Russian capital, was attacked late Friday by unknown assailants who went on a shooting spree with assault rifles. An explosion rocked the building, starting a fire. The concert hall holds up to 7,500 people and was almost packed when the terrorists launched their assault. The popular rock band Picnic was set to perform. According to footage circulating online, some five gunmen took part in the shooting.
They reportedly killed the security guards – who were unarmed – at the main entrance to the venue, and blocked it before continuing their rampage inside.▪️While the investigation is still underway, terrorist attacks in the last two years have all been committed by people working for the Ukrainian secret services, in coordination with NATO countries and/or the US and UK security services in Europe. ▪️ Sergei Goncharov, a veteran of the elite Russian Alpha anti-terrorism unit, says he has no doubt in his mind that Russian investigators will ultimately find the masterminds behind Friday’s deadly attack on Crocus City Hall. Goncharov believes Ukrainian military intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov – who has threatened repeatedly to target Russian civilians, is most directly responsible for Friday’s carnage.▪️ Unable to prevail on the battlefield, the Kiev regime, and those who control and support it, have once again targeted innocent civilians. But one thing is sure: They will pay dearly. @LauraRuHK
