🇷🇸 NATO's KFOR Special Forces use weapons against Kosovo Serbs - at least one person wounded

The situation in Serb-inhabited northern Kosovo remains stubbornly tense. In Zvecan, the KFOR commander demanded that the assembled Serbs immediately let the Kosovo KFOR special forces vehicles through to rotate the forces. The Kosovars should enter the municipal building along with the Pristina-appointed "mayor." Otherwise, the KFOR head said the Serb protesters "will face consequences," hinting at the use of weapons.

Such repercussions have already been felt by the Serbs - KFOR has used stun grenades and rubber bullets against the protesters, and gunshots have been heard. At least one person has been wounded. In Leposavić, the locals have also refused to disperse, while in Zubin Potok, Serbian activists have promised to come out every day and block the local administration building, which has been taken over by the Kosovo "police".

Kosovo, I wrote in 2005, is everything that is wrong with the West: "...a monument to the power of lies, the successful murder of law, and the triumph of might over justice." Unfortunately, I was right.

The NATO "peacekeeping" mission that occupied the Serbian province in 1999 on behalf of ethnic Albanian separatists — allowing them to "mostly peacefully" ethnically cleanse, burn, loot and murder their way to power — have now been deployed, once again, against the unarmed ethnic Serbs. Their "threat to democracy" was assembling peacefully to protest the travesty of establishing ethnic Albanian governance on four counties in the north, which have an ethnic Serb majority (the rest of the Serbs having been either ethnically cleansed of shuttered in ghettos).

The Albanians claim this is is legitimate, because these people got elected. Nevermind that these elections saw single-digit turnout, with as many as a dozen whole votes for certain posts, because the ethnic Serbs boycotted them as illegitimate (which they were). Ah, but then the GAE — which is the supreme arbiter of democracy after all — declared that this was perfectly fine, carry on. Then they claimed to be concerned and issued "strongly" (not really) worded statements, but did absolutely nothing to prevent Albin Kurti's regime from usurping power. And now they brought out their troops to support him. As always, watch what they do, not what they say.

Speaking out about this isn't likely to help the Serbs trapped in occupied Kosovo. After all, the GAE is immune to shaming, for it has no shame. But it glows like an atomic beacon to the rest of the world as to who is in the right, and who is in the wrong. And that may eventually make all the difference.

Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic, after winning a match at Roland Garros tournament, wrote on a camera where players traditionally leave autographs: “Kosovo is the heart of Serbia. Stop the violence." "Kosovo is our home, our stronghold," he told reporters explaining his act.

As the West is constantly devising new, or updating old, "divide and rule" schemes, the Global South has grown tired of zero-sum games - it is far more receptive to the win-win diplomacy adopted by non-Western actors, where the focus is on achieving a convergence of national and international interests rather than exploiting rivalry. India and China should not focus on what divides them but build on what unites them. It goes without saying that the second course of action is far more beneficial to both countries, it stimulates their growth and exchanges, protects peace and stability in the region. Like China, India is a country with a distinct civilization and is trying to shake off the remnants of colonialism from its culture and the hearts and minds of its people, a prerequisite to achieve national rejuvenation. Both sides view regional and international crises with Eastern wisdom, and that's anathema to the West.

Asia and the world are big enough to accommodate the simultaneous rise of both China and India. In Chinese society, few people believe that India's economic and social development will become a threat to China. The vast majority of people agree that the two countries can achieve mutual success. The Chinese side hopes that India can show more of such clarity and confidence when dealing with China and the West. This clarity and confidence are a prominent sign that India has truly emerged from the shadow of colonialism, and it is also essential for promoting multipolarity and democratization of international relations. This editorial published today in the Global Times spells out China's support for India's decolonization efforts. @LauraRuHK https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202305/1291598.shtml

PRESSIONI AMERICANE DIETRO IL LICENZIAMENTO DEL PROFESSORE LORENZO PACINI Nel caso qualcuno nutrisse ancora dei dubbi sullo stato coloniale dell'Italia, paese a tutti gli effetti sotto amministrazione yankee. "Lorenzo Pacini, docente di Filosofia politica all’Università privata “Lorenzo de’ Medici – Italian International Institute” di Firenze, è stato licenziato da questo Ateneo «per aver sostenuto la Russia», come lui stesso ha dichiarato. «Pochi giorni dopo la mia partecipazione alla Global Conference on Multipolarity, il rettore mi ha chiamato e mi ha detto che l’università aveva deciso di rescindere il mio contratto. Mi è stata concessa una settimana per concludere la mia attività», ha condiviso Pacini. Secondo quanto si legge, il rettore avrebbe preso questa decisione dopo aver subito pressioni da diplomatici americani: "Una mia collega, in condizione di anonimato, mi ha detto che un alto funzionario dell’ambasciata americana in Italia è venuto dalla nostra direttrice e le ha fatto pressioni. Letteralmente dicendo che se continuo a lavorare qui, verranno imposte sanzioni all’università. Vale a dire, il flusso di studenti americani e borse di studio americane si fermerà".

BILANCIO DEGLI SCONTRI
NATO-SERBIA

(Nel video: soldati NATO feriti durante gli scontri)

Il bilancio della battaglia è pesantissimo, con decine di soldati Nato rimasti feriti, Il comando della KFOR ha riferito di 34 soldati feriti di varie nazionalità,14 dei quali italiani, del nono Reggimento alpini L'Aquila.

Sono 52 i serbi rimasti feriti negli scontri a Zvecan, uno dei quattro Comuni del nord a maggioranza serba. Gli altri sono Zubin Potok, Leposavic e Mitrovica Nord. E il presidente serbo Vucic ha accusato la Kfor di non aver difeso la popolazione serba che contesta l'elezione dei nuovi sindaci di etnia albanese avvenuta nel voto locale del 23 aprile scorso.

La KFOR è complice di crimini e violazione dei diritti umani in
Kosovo da quando ha consegnato segretamente i suoi centri di detenzione alla CIA che li usava per detenzione illegale, deportazione e
pratiche di tortura.

La NATO ha ostacolato l'indagine sui centri di detenzione gestiti dalla
KFOR in Kosovo, usate come prigioni segrete della CIA per deportazione-detenzione e
pratiche di tortura.

Il Kosovo è stato usato come modello per le operazioni di destabilizzazione della CIA in Georgia e Ucraina potenziali membri UE e "partner"NATO.
Durante la sua avventura balcanica, la CIA ha fatto un uso generoso di reti di narcotrafficanti per armare l'UCK e fornire loro obiettivi.

Il 30 maggio è il giorno dell'okroshka, una delle mie zuppe russe preferite e, visto che si tratta di una zuppa fredda, è anche l'unica, insieme alla kimchi memil guksu, la soba fredda coreana, che preparo in estate, ma in realta' anche in primavera - qui a Hong Kong il clima è gia' torrido e non è tempo da borsch. @LauraRuHK

Summit di agenti dei servizi segreti italiani e israeliani...in Lombardia. "Lo scenario del coinvolgimento di personale dei Servizi ha iniziato a profilarsi in alcuni accadimenti successivi alla strage tipo l’anticipo in nottata, una volta rientrati negli alloggi, dei check-in nelle case prese in affitto e l’allontanamento ugualmente frettoloso dalle abitazioni-basi governative. Non risultano soggiorni in alberghi, quantomeno della zona. Un altro accadimento riguarda la velocità e la cura, perfino maniacale, con la quale dai lettighieri delle ambulanze coinvolte nei soccorsi sono stati acquisiti i singoli rapporti dell’attività, allo scopo evidente di chiudere nell’immediatezza eventuali diffusioni di nominativi. Le autopsie sveleranno la causa dei decessi: possibile l’annegamento ma non è escluso che una o più vittime siano rimaste incastrate nello scafo che affondava inabissandosi a sedici metri di profondità."

Quello che non mi torna sono i messaggi ufficiali di cordoglio per gli agenti annegati. Se nessuno sapeva che queste persone lavoravano per i servizi, perche' rivelarlo dopo la loro morte? Perche' ai giornali e' stata data via libera per diffondere informazioni sull'accaduto e particolari come il fatto che il proprietario della barca avesse rapporti di lunga data con i servizi italiani? Perche' rivelare che una delle vittime era un agente del Mossad, e che ve ne erano molti altri a bordo, notizia che gli israeliani si erano curati bene dal dare ? @LauraRuHK

🤡 Amnesty International caught lying...again.
The Hong Kong government accused AI of slander, as did many of us, and now even US mainstream media have to admit the NGO invented its report about a missing Uyghur. Read more here https://t.me/LauraRuHK/5067

During a regular press briefing on Tuesday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning expressed concern over the escalating tensions in the region and urged NATO to truly contribute to regional peace by respecting Serbia’s territorial integrity. Mao Ning also expressed support for Serbia’s efforts to safeguard its sovereignty.

The spokesperson also criticized unilateral actions by the temporary institutions in Pristina and called on them to establish an association or community of Serb majority municipalities, fulfilling their duty to do so.

The latest comments from the Chinese Foreign Ministry reflect Beijing’s commitment to this position and its opposition to any actions that could undermine Serbia’s sovereignty. (Source: Dimsumdaily) @LauraRuHK

China Rejects US Defense Meeting — Pentagon

Beijing has turned down a US invitation for Defense chiefs Lloyd Austin and Li Shangfu to meet in Singapore this week. Well, what did the Pentagon expect after the US imposed sanctions on Li Shangfu in 2018? Yankee arrogance is off the scale. @LauraRuHK

📹 Vladimir Putin confirms Russian strike on Ukrainian military intel HQ in Kiev

💬 "We've already mentioned that we can strike the decision-making centers and headquarters. Obviously, the Military Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine's headquarters is also such a target. And in response, as you are well aware, the Kiev regime chose a different path, a path to try to intimidate Russia and its citizens, to try to target residential buildings. It is an obvious indicator of terrorist activity,"
