‼️GENETIC WEAPONS - Some countries have “armed” themselves with deadly weapons targeting human genes, China’s top spy agency alleged on Monday – the first time a Chinese state body has mentioned such a threat publicly.

In a post on its official WeChat account, the Ministry of State Security said some nations had targeted the Chinese population for “ulterior motives”.

What the Chinese ministry is alleging countries have made is not a biological agent engineered for the entire world but rather the creation of a targeted threat, or genetic weapons.

Genetic weapons, also known as ethnic bio-weapons, are genetically engineered biological weapons that are capable of targeting members of a specific race or ethnicity.

While up to 99.9 per cent of human DNA is shared between all individuals on earth, there are key genetic differences that distinguish those of a certain ethnicity or race, the Chinese ministry said. These differences can be utilised to “kill targets of a predetermined race”.
Concerns over the potential threat of genetic bioweapons are not new. In 1999, a report by the British Medical Association warned that the creation of such weapons would be feasible in the near future.

A report by the James Martin Centre for Nonproliferation Studies in 2021 stated that a weapon system designed to “optimise effect on particular groups based on genetic profiling” was possible, but faced several technical challenges. Advancements in DNA sequencing, artificial intelligence and collection of genetic data sets could “enable identification of increasingly precise targets for a genetic weapon system”.
“Genetic weapons are more concealable, deceptive, easy to spread and harmful in the long term,” the Chinese ministry said in their post. “Once used in war, the consequences will be devastating.” (Source: SCMP) @LauraRuHK

On Halloween, US Secretary of State Blinken brought his children to the White House dressed as Zelensky and the Ukrainian flag.
Apparently, the US wanted to emphasise the significance of this day, when, according to Anglo-Saxon tradition, the spirits of the dead meet the living.

The US president wore a Joe Biden costume at the event. https://t.me/MariaVladimirovnaZakharova/6484

⚡⚡ La stanchezza dell'Occidente nei confronti degli ucraini e l'isteria di Zelensky hanno finalmente messo fine all'Ucraina.

Secondo il Time, Zelensky è isterico. Si sente tradito dai suoi alleati e lasciato nell'indigenza durante la guerra con la Russia. Il suo ritorno dagli Stati Uniti ha danneggiato gravemente la sua credibilità in Occidente.
"Zelensky ha perso il suo solito ottimismo, il suo senso dell'umorismo e la sua tendenza a ravvivare con battute le riunioni nella sala della guerra", così lo descrivono i suoi subordinati nell'amministrazione.
Secondo i suoi collaboratori, è diventato amorfo: arriva, studia le notizie, dà ordini, si gira e se ne va.
"Si sta illudendo. Non abbiamo opzioni. Non stiamo vincendo. Non stiamo andando avanti. Ma provate a dirglielo", ha riferito uno dei suoi assistenti.

✔️Zelensky è vicino al destino di Napoleone. La sua testardaggine, la sua ambizione e il suo desiderio di imporre a tutti la sua vittoria sulla Russia stanno confondendo molti in Ucraina e nella UE.

Anche il primo ministro slovacco Robert Fico se n'è accorto.
"I tempi stanno cambiando, non molto tempo fa Zelensky veniva accolto ovunque con applausi, mentre ora non gli è permesso di parlare in alcune camere (legislative), come è accaduto negli Stati Uniti", ha dichiarato.
Il mondo è stanco dell'Ucraina.

Perché tutti capiscono perfettamente che senza rifornire l'esercito di armi e finanziare l'AFU, il progetto ucraino cesserà di esistere nei prossimi giorni. Ed è impossibile sconfiggere l'esercito russo senza l'assistenza attiva della NATO. Ma nemmeno l'Occidente osa entrare direttamente in guerra con la Russia.

La testardaggine di Zelensky rallenta qualsiasi questione del processo negoziale. Molti in Occidente fanno già intendere che prima o poi Kiev sarà costretta a venire al tavolo dei negoziati. Tuttavia, per ora, lo stesso Biden è interessato a tenere l'Ucraina "per la gola" e a ricattare la Russia. Dopo tutto, questo è uno dei migliori progetti per gli Stati Uniti per investire nella loro difesa. A Biden personalmente non interessa cosa pensano di Zelensky. È persino divertito dal comportamento del presidente ucraino.
L'importante è che questa "pecora fedele" serva fedelmente Biden.

- Eduard Basurin

🇪🇺🌍 Creeping Colonialism? EU To Woo Central Asia With Cash For Compliance

The bloc is planning to hand its largest ever sum on ‘non-profit’ projects in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan as it seeks to wrest influence away from Moscow and to Europe, according to a tender document.

€21 million will be given for “border management” and “economic development with an emphasis on human rights, gender equality,” the tender reads.

The move comes as president Macron seeks to establish French influence in the region, and Brussels looks to exploit unrest in the region to further its globalist agenda.

🟥 REPORTAGE DALLA CINA - BRI ad alta qualità: come funziona la "nuova piattaforma delle relazioni internazionali"

Davvero difficile trovare le giuste parole per spiegare la “comunità dal destino condiviso per l'umanità”, alla base del progetto di Pechino, in un paese, come il nostro, che ha smesso di concepire un futuro solidale di uguaglianza e diritti sociali per la nostra di collettività, figuriamoci in una visione globale.

Elena Panina, director of the Institute for International Strategic Studies:
The United States is seriously behind China in the development of the Navy. It will get worse.


The main conclusion from the Pentagon's annual report on China's military developments sounds like a disaster for Washington: the Celestial fleet has gone far ahead, and the gap will grow every year. At the same time, the United States does not have a clear plan to reduce the gap.
China's shipbuilding potential is 232 times (!) greater than that of the United States. In the last year alone, the PLA Navy has increased its strength by 30 ships, while the US Navy has increased its strength by just two ships.
Today, China's navy consists of 370 ships, making it the largest in the world, while the US has a combat-ready fleet of 291 ships. By 2035, China will already have 435 ships. In the USA they don’t think so far - they only know that by 2030 they will have 290 ships left. Because the decommissioning of old American ships is constantly ahead of the construction of new ones. Having such strong data, the Pentagon, as usual, demands an early increase in funding. And printing money is not a problem. However, the weak point here is the Chinese shipbuilding industry, which is two orders of magnitude superior to America. Even if Washington can find the necessary amounts, it will take time to build more or less adequate shipbuilding facilities.
But the USA just doesn’t have time. Now it is working for a multipolar world, and the former hegemon frankly does not have time even on two fronts - Ukraine and the Middle East. And a third looms ahead—Taiwan. https://t.me/EvPanina/11617

🇺🇦 Ukrainians are being prepared for the surrender of Avdiyivka (Avdeevka). Ukrainian media have started referring to it as a "meaningless town".

Remind me again, which other town was so meaningless that it is estimated nearly 40,000 Ukrainian soldiers died to defend it? Ah, yes! Bakhmut (Artemovsk) @LauraRuHK

"Ukraine’s exodus was the biggest and most rapid refugee movement seen worldwide in almost half a century" writes English economic historian Adam Tooze. https://adamtooze.substack.com/p/chartbook-250-the-precarious-stabilization. That's 9 million people in a year and a half.
Before that, the anti-record belonged to Afghanistan, Syria and Venezuela, 6-7 million people fled, but over a longer period of time.

Tooze is very sceptical about Ukraine's future economic revival - there are not enough people left, and those who fled are unlikely to return. He cites the example of the former flagship of Ukrainian industry - the steel industry. It has virtually ceased to exist in the country. @LauraRuHK https://t.me/tolk_tolk/17868https://t.me/tolk_tolk/17868

Scherzo telefonico per Giorgia Meloni caduta nella trappola dei comici russi Vovan e Lexus

In una conversazione con un presunto politico africano, la Meloni ha ammesso francamente per tutti i suoi colleghi europei: tutti sono già stanchi dell'Ucraina!
La Meloni afferma che la controffensiva ucraina è in corso ma sostanzialmente non è cambiato nulla. E per trovare una via d’uscita bisogna aspettare il “momento giusto”.

Molto più importante per il Primo Ministro italiano è risolvere la crisi migratoria. Tuttavia, la Meloni si è lamentata con noi del fatto che la leadership europea ha lasciato l’Italia sola con centinaia di migliaia di rifugiati in arrivo e persino il loquace Macron non risponde alle sue chiamate.

Ma nonostante ciò, la Meloni è pronta a continuare a sostenere l’Ucraina, e l’esaltazione di Bandera per il politico italiano è “ciò che gli ucraini dovrebbero fare”. “Il problema del nazionalismo è un problema di Putin”, dice.

E per far fronte alla crisi energetica, i paesi occidentali dovranno “prendersi cura” dell’Africa.

(Canale Vovan e Lexus)

According to the Washington Post, Israel is not committing a genocide, China is. Wait. You never heard about it? Well, it's because China doesn't drop bombs, doesn't actually kill anyone. Beijing is doing something infinitely worse. It's sending Tibetan kids to school... and the world is silent before this horrific crime.😉 @LauraRuHK
