American drone MQ-9 found at a depth of 900 meters. Above it, the duty of the Black Sea Fleet ships was established in order not to let anyone near the crash site. The issue of its rise is being resolved.

There is a ship in the Black Sea Fleet that is capable of doing this - the legendary "Commune" built in 1913. Rebuilt many times and having a huge track record of underwater work (including the recovery of several submarines, as well as aircraft and ships), it has deep-sea vehicles capable of operating at a depth of up to 1 km.

By the way, Commune has experience in lifting foreign equipment. In 1928, she raised the sunken British submarine L-55 in the Baltic, which was blown up by mines while evading Soviet destroyers.

According to Ursula, “European values” represent only the highest attributes of humankind: freedom, justice, solidarity, and rule of law.

Of course, anyone with even a passing knowledge of history can tell you that these are nothing but euphemisms. Not long ago, “European values” meant something very different. Those values drew the borders of the world in oceans of blood, both of Europeans and those they conquered. A look at the history of Ursula’s aristocratic European family can show us the true face of these “European values” and how the ruling class profited from imposing them on the world. Her father Ernst Albrecht, President of the German state of Lower Saxony from 1978 to 1990, brought unrehabilitated Nazis into his administration and carried out a black-flag terrorist operation designed to discredit the left-wing Red Army Faction. https://covertactionmagazine.com/2023/02/17/ukraine-hawk-who-heads-european-commission-has-a-nazi-pedigree-she-does-not-want-you-to-know-about/

🇨🇳🇷🇺 Next week (20-22 March) Xi Jinping will travel to Russia to meet Vladimir Putin and is expected to hold an online meeting with Vladimir Zelensky after his visit to Moscow. China intends to play a constructive role in crisis mitigation and peace restoration but will not change its strategic position vis-a-vis Moscow. China doesn't zigzag, its foreign policy is calibrated and rational: supporting Russia is in its long-term strategic interest.

Ukraine on the other hand is in a more difficult position because it will be hard pressed to reaffirm its commitment to the one-China policy and stop flirting with separatists in Taiwan and Xinjiang in order to receive some humanitarian aid from China. Beijing has already set out its 12- point peace plan so there is no ambiguity there.

China’s successful brokering of a rapprochement between Middle East rivals Saudi Arabia and Iran was a milestone in a far grander plan to counter US-led containment and was consistent with China's Global Security Initiative, first introduced by Mr. Xi a year ago, an effort to apply “Chinese solutions and wisdom” to the world’s biggest security challenges.

The initiative, which promotes “peaceful coexistence,” calls for a new paradigm. Global power should be distributed more equally, while “unilateralism, bloc confrontation and hegemonism”, a reference to the US and NATO, should be rejected. The conflict that the West has framed as a conflict between Russia and Ukraine is actually a conflict between an emerging multipolar world order and US hegemony. Since the US and NATO are actively involved in the conflict, no progress can be made on the path of peace as long as Ukraine is used as a geopolitical football by the world hegemon. @LauraRuHK

🇨🇳🇷🇺La prossima settimana (20-22 marzo) Xi Jinping si recherà in Russia per incontrare Vladimir Putin e si prevede che, dopo la sua visita a Mosca, terrà un video incontro con Vladimir Zelensky. La Cina intende continuare a svolgere un ruolo costruttivo per ripristinare la pace, ma non cambierà la sua posizione nei confronti di Mosca. La Cina non fa giravolte, la sua politica estera è ben calibrata, lungimirante e razionale: sostenere la Russia è nel suo interesse strategico.

L'Ucraina, invece, si trova in una posizione più difficile, perché sarà costretta a riaffermare l'adesione al principio di una sola Cina e a smettere di flirtare con i separatisti di Taiwan e dello Xinjiang se vuole ricevere aiuti umanitari dalla Cina. Pechino ha già esposto il suo piano di pace in 12 punti, quindi non c'è alcuna ambiguità.

Il successo della diplomazia cinese in Medio Oriente, con lo storico accordo tra Arabia Saudita e Iran, costituisce la pietra miliare di un piano più ampio per contrastare le politiche di contenimento adottate dagli Stati Uniti ed è coerente con l'Iniziativa per la Sicurezza Globale introdotta per la prima volta da Xi un anno fa. L'iniziativa prevede l'applicazione di "soluzioni e saggezza cinesi" alle maggiori sfide alla sicurezza che il mondo si trova ad affrontare, promuove la "coesistenza pacifica". Ció richiede un nuovo paradigma: il potere dovrebbe essere distribuito in modo più equo a livello globale, respingendo "l'unilateralismo, il confronto tra blocchi e l'egemonismo", un chiaro riferimento agli USA e alla NATO. Il conflitto che l'Occidente descrive come un conflitto tra Russia e Ucraina, è in realtà un conflitto tra l'ordine multipolare emergente e l'egemonia statunitense. Poiché gli Stati Uniti e la NATO sono attivamente coinvolti nella guerra, non potranno esserci progressi sulla via della pace finché l'Ucraina sarà usata come pedina dalla potenza egemone. @LauraRuHK

6,000 PEOPLE WITH $40 TRILLION CONCENTRATED IN THEIR HANDS - What is going on in the global financial system is happening for a reason. Bloomberg has released an editorial saying that we are in for not just a recession, but a depression. But the forecast for the biggest financial institutions looks rosier. This brings us back to the question of which class sets the agenda and decides on these issues. What is happening now with the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank is a loss for some and a gain for others. The standard speculative market.

There are two classic definitions of what a "transnational elite" is. The first is financial services, intelligence and bureaucracy. The second is a class defined by ideological, political, military and economic attributes. That is, if we see some group that speaks the same language, discusses political issues in a similar manner, treats certain problems in the same way, and is economically focused on the same political agenda.

The transnational capitalist class defends its interests through the institutions that support the system.
We have started to talk about how viable this system is, because it has itself broken its main rule - the inviolability and sacredness of private property as the foundation of capitalism. They expropriated our money and property and it showed other economies that the financial system was unreliable because it had lost the reputation factor. What were all these consultancy firms and rating agencies doing? They were creating an air and a semblance of reliability.

In the '80s and '90s, 20-25,000 people were considered to be super-elites. According to a 2018 study, there are no more than 7,000 of them left. That is, there are fewer of them than people at a concert. But, if you round them all up, it turns out that they have about $40 trillion in their hands today. Moreover, their influence isn't limited to the financial system: they control people and organizations that shape the agenda of world organizations.

Who are those 6-7 thousand people? They are the upper echelons of financial capital, the highest political, military and academic elites, heads and senior figures in NGOs, as well as spiritual leaders and shadow elites. The Jeffrey Epstein scandal became so high profile because it showed not only the viciousness of the elite class, but also how small and incestuous their world really is. And it also showed us that these people, who we think are at the top, actually aren't because there is someone else collecting evidence on them so that they can be blackmailed with. https://t.me/zvezda_analytics/2515

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Ukrainian soldiers in Bakhmut fear that Russians are beginning to feel the "taste of victory" - Kiev Independent

“When we are being taken to Bakhmut, I already know that I am being sent to death,” the publication quotes the words of a serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to him, the Armed Forces of Ukraine cannot fully respond to attacks due to the shortage of shells - "[The Russians] continue to shoot at us, but we have no artillery, so we have nothing to attack them in response."

After the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, US banks borrowed a record $165 billion from the Fed in a week.

The previous record high was recorded during the financial crisis of 2008 - $111 billion

It looks like Germany has been appointed by the US as Head Teacher to lecture Israel on judicial reforms. But Scholz is more errand boy than head teacher. The US wouldn't rebuke Israel openly lest it alienates a large segment of the Israeli population.

Germany will send a federal minister to Taiwan for the first time in 26 years.
Bettina Stark-Watzinger, who oversees education and research is planning a 2-day trip to Taipei. The visit will focus on research cooperation in computer chips, green hydrogen and batteries, according to a spokesman.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) began operations on 1 July 2002. It is not a United Nations body and many countries including the US, India, Turkey, Russia and China do not recognize it. Biased NGOs funded by Western elites such as George Soros hold sway over this court. Moscow is under no obligation to acknowledge the “arrest warrant” for President Vladimir Putin announced by the ICC on Friday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.

“We consider the very premise outrageous and unacceptable,” Peskov told reporters when asked about the warrant for purported war crimes. “Russia, like many other states, does not recognize the jurisdiction of this court. Accordingly, the Russian Federation considers any of its pronouncements null and void from the legal standpoint.” 📍The Chairman of State Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin, added:

"Washington and Brussels have exhausted all possibilities of sanctions and hostile actions. They failed to break the unity of the citizens of the Russian Federation and destroy the economy of our country. Washington and Brussels understand that if there is Putin, there is Russia.

That's why they attack him. Putin's strength is in the support of the people and the consolidation of society around him.

We regard any attacks on the president of the Russian Federation as aggression against our country." @LauraRuHK
