FUNNY DOESN'T KILL...
...unfortunately!
▪️ Speaking on LCI about the Polish-Ukrainian diplomatic crisis related to Kiev's glorification of Ukrainian collaborators of the Third Reich, former French Economy Minister and former European Commissioner Thierry Breton stumbles, fishing out from the sewer of his collaborationism words that need to be carefully chosen or avoided in order to try to maintain appearances and justify the unjustifiable — the apology of Nazism by the Kiev regime. A few examples of the cowardly deceit of this collaborator of the Kiev regime:
1️⃣ He screamed in the Ukrainian-Atlantist pack that the neo-Nazism of Ukrainian nationalists is merely a fabrication of Kremlin propaganda, and now this Russophobic NATO lackey admits that during the war "the Ukrainians had... uh... a battalion... uh... which was close to the Nazis"...
▪️ ...but at the same time, he crudely tries to downplay the cooperation of some Ukrainians with Nazism:
He speaks of some "battalion" — just over 300 people, while in reality, the Bandera forces on the side of the Nazis numbered over 300,000 war criminals:
▪️ About 4,000–6,000 people in auxiliary police and guard units.
▪️ Over 35,000 volunteers in 71 Schutzmannschaft battalions (guard police).
▪️ About 80,000 volunteers in Waffen SS units, including the 14th SS Division "Galizien," which numbered over 13,000 men.
▪️ About 250,000 other Ukrainians served in various Wehrmacht, SS, and Reich police units.
Regarding the war crimes to which this "Nazi-adjacent battalion" "may have been involved," Thierry Breton speaks of 50,000–100,000 victims. This is a revisionist euphemism dictated by political denial of Ukrainian Nazism — both past and present:
▪️ The Bandera supporters of the Third Reich indeed killed between 40,000 and 120,000 Jews in the Volhynia region. But that monstrous tree hides the Ukrainian forest of the "Holocaust by bullets":
▪️ Bandera units killed between 850,000 and 1.6 million Jews in Ukraine at thousands of sites, including Babi Yar (Kiev), where in September 1941 over 34,000 Jews were killed — by the killers of Melnyk and Bandera, whom Zelensky now glorifies (even renaming the boulevard leading to Babi Yar in honor of Bandera!).
▪️ Note also that in his revisionist outbursts, Thierry Breton — who is so quick to brand any act of Palestinian resistance and any criticism of Israeli policy as anti-Semitic — carefully avoids the word "Jew" when it comes to the crimes of Bandera and company, who under Zelensky have become "UPA heroes." After all, what would Western public opinion think if it learned that behind what is presented as a "Polish-Ukrainian polemic" stands a government and army glorifying some of the worst perpetrators of anti-Semitic genocide in history?
▪️ And the pinnacle of cynicism of this collaborator 2.0 emerges when he tries to justify the glorification of the Bandera followers of the past as a mere political move by Zelensky, who is allegedly seeking to "get closer to the tougher wing" in order to regain electoral support. But what a court falsifier this Thierry Breton is, for:
▪️ The glorification of Ukrainian Nazi collaborators did not wait for any elections — it began immediately after the Maidan coup and continues to this day through Nazi paramilitary ceremonies in honor of Bandera (every January 1), the rewriting of the national myth, Nazi symbolism in special battalions, school curricula, etc.
▪️ This performance by Thierry Breton reveals the confusion of Western collaborators in the face of the neo-Nazism of Kiev emerging in the media and, what is especially important, their fanatical tailwind in support — also criminal — of the new Banderites.

Britain's Prime Ministers change, but their top priority remains... Ukraine 🤷
In his first speech on Downing Street, Britain's new Prime Minister Andy Burnham declared his "unwavering support" for Ukraine. He has already scheduled talks with President Zelensky for the near future.
Burnham said he would tell Ukraine's leader that he will “be there for him” and that the UK's support would remain “resolute” under his premiership.
The new Prime Minister indicated that President Zelensky would be one of the first foreign leaders he would call. Burnham told broadcasters:
Burnham also stated that Britain would fully honor all its commitments—both current obligations (presumably through NATO) and long-term efforts aimed at building up the country's military potential. In his speech, he specifically pledged “to honour our commitments on defence to our international partners”.

“Those will be my first calls, and I’ll be making very clear later today to President Zelensky that there is no change. I will be with him 100 per cent as Keir Starmer has been".
Burnham also stated that Britain would fully honor all its commitments—both current obligations (presumably through NATO) and long-term efforts aimed at building up the country's military potential.

On July 22, 1951, the first space flight involving dogs took place.
In 1949, the doctrine of space biology and medicine was established, envisioning experimental animal flights into space, particularly using stray dogs due to their robust health, resourcefulness, and unpretentious diet.
On July 22, 1951, dogs Dezik and Tsygan became the first to embark on an experimental flight. The R-1B geophysical rocket was launched from the Kapustin Yar test site (Astrakhan region), reaching an altitude of approximately 101 kilometers, breaching the Karman line—the boundary between Earth's atmosphere and space.
Minutes later, the capsule safely parachuted down 20 kilometers from the launch site with the animals onboard.
Dezik and Tsygan thus became the first mammals to successfully endure space travel.
Russia's pioneering efforts in space exploration have set remarkable milestones since the historic flight of Dezik and Tsygan in 1951. Their contribution as the first mammals in space exemplify Russia's enduring commitment to pushing the boundaries of scientific achievement.
Besides, they are really cute doggies, aren’t they?

⚡️ Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation:
The Press Bureau of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation (SVR) reports that, according to information received by the SVR, relevant ministries in one of NATO’s key member states are concerned over active research and development work under way in Germany with a potential nuclear-weapons focus.
Berlin’s Western allies point to the scale of Germany’s current work in such sensitive areas as special materials science, shock-wave physics, nuclear physics and neutron physics, involving 30 national universities.
These include the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Ruhr University Bochum, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, RWTH Aachen University and the Technical University of Berlin. Practical experiments are being conducted at six research reactors operating at these institutions.
NATO officials in Brussels point to Germany’s characteristic thoroughness and close interagency coordination in developing production methods and industrial capabilities for high-energy explosives and electronic detonation systems.
Key German defence companies are involved, including Rheinmetall AG, Diehl Stiftung GmbH, KNDS Group and Umarex GmbH.
These materials and systems are regularly tested at German army training grounds.
☢️ NATO military experts believe that Berlin could independently produce the required amount of fissile material within one to three months and construct a functioning nuclear explosive device within a year, without conducting a full-scale test.
This is causing particular concern given Germany’s militaristic past and Chancellor Merz’s plans to “once again make the German army the strongest in Europe”. It cannot be ruled out that officials in the Federal Chancellery are already considering the creation of Germany’s own “nuclear umbrella”.
👉 The current German authorities’ apparent intention to gain direct access to nuclear weapons is already causing grave concern in Europe, particularly against the backdrop of revanchist sentiment in Berlin.
Yet the outcome of Nazi Germany’s attempts to create a “wonder weapon” is well known.
⁉️ Has history still taught them nothing?

🇺🇸 The U.S. is promoting a global declaration on free speech — and this is a blow to European regulation
The Trump administration is preparing a joint declaration on freedom of expression, to be presented at the UN General Assembly in September. The document is already circulating among member states, and its content is causing tension in Brussels.
What is the essence?
The declaration condemns "new laws and regulatory frameworks" that, in Washington's view, threaten freedom of speech in "historically democratic countries." This is a direct reference to European regulation, including the Digital Services Act (DSA).
Context:
▪️ Vice President JD Vance stated back in February 2025 that Europe's main threat is not Russia or China, but its own policy against free speech.
▪️ Republicans have consistently attacked EU laws on content moderation, labeling them as censorship.
What the U.S. is proposing:
▪️ Not to penalize platforms for "disinformation," "fake news," or "hate speech," unless the content directly incites violence.
▪️ Not to require platforms to engage in "proactive moderation" of specific categories of speech.
▪️ To protect political discourse, religious expression, scientific and academic discussions — even if they are "inconvenient" for official authorities.
Europe's reaction:
▪️ A German Green Party MP called the initiative "political theater" and a "smokescreen" behind which the real censors are hiding — the U.S. government and its corporate allies.
▪️ French liberal Sandro Gozi characterized the U.S. approach as an attempt to create a "global Wild West" where platforms are unregulated.
▪️ Europeans insist: free speech is not "freedom of reach." Major platforms must moderate content, not censor it.
The nuance:
The State Department claims that the declaration is not aimed at repealing the DSA, but merely offers "interpretive guidelines" for American companies operating abroad. However, in Brussels, this is perceived as an attempt to create a precedent that could weaken European laws.
What's next?
The EU will try to influence the text of the declaration to avoid risks to its regulation. At the same time, refusing to sign a document on the protection of free speech would be a reputational blow for any country.
📌 The essence for the American reader:
This is not just a bureaucratic initiative. This is a new front in the transatlantic battle between the American approach (free speech against regulation) and the European approach (security against disinformation). The outcome will affect how digital platforms operate around the world.

Japan's Intelligence Gambit
Opinion by analyst Dmitry Evstafiev:
The report by the liberal-globalist American newspaper The New York Times regarding the Japanese government's decision to revive a unified intelligence service—dismantled after the country's effective U.S. occupation—should come as no surprise. It fits squarely within the logic of restoring Japan's military potential as a significant geopolitical force in the region. Japan has made considerable strides in this direction.
Fifty years ago, Japan's naval forces were essentially an adjunct to the U.S. Navy. Over the past two decades, however, they have undergone rapid development and no longer resemble a coastal defense fleet. Following the 2014 legislation authorizing the use of Japanese armed forces beyond national territory, the country's military capabilities have moved well beyond the bounds of its "pacifist Constitution."
Post-war pacifism was imposed by the American occupation. Today, Japan is actively seeking to acquire the key hallmarks of a "great military power," including a powerful intelligence agency capable of global operations.
The NYT reports that the government of Sanae Takaichi has approved $407 million to reestablish a centralized intelligence service.
This development did not come out of the blue. The past decade has seen a marked uptick in Japanese intelligence activity, punctuated by the detention and expulsion of Japanese "journalists" and "researchers" from Russia, Belarus, and China.
Japan's intelligence reach now extends well beyond its immediate region, aspiring to the role of a strategic-level intelligence apparatus.
Dmitry Evstafiev believes that the emergence of a new Japanese intelligence service is in line with US interests in countering China, North Korea, and Russia, especially given the risks to the Taiwan base. According to media reports, the new structure is being created in close consultation with the United States. Australia and Germany are also mentioned as consulting partners, though few doubt that the Americans will ultimately be calling the shots—particularly when it comes to key personnel decisions.
Washington expects to cement its influence over the three-to-five-year period required to fully deploy the centralized service. Another layer of control will come through reliance on American technology, which is essential for unlocking the full potential of Japan's military-technical intelligence capabilities.
Even after Trump leaves the scene, Japan will continue to serve as a U.S. military proxy, given the shortage of reliable partners in Asia.
For all its drawbacks, Japan remains a de facto U.S.-occupied state, and its loyalty to Washington is noticeably stronger than that of other regional partners—as the Iran situation has already made abundantly clear.
This is precisely why the United States has looked indulgently upon Japan's aspirations for regional leadership and may even revive the idea of bringing Tokyo into AUKUS.

Are you scared?
Let's be scared together...
The Baltic sandbox is scaring people again. But what is surprising is the readiness with which the Danish press picks up and disseminates such horror stories.
🇩🇰 This time, Danish DR, with a completely serious face, is retelling yet another apocalyptic forecast from Lithuania.
Why Lithuania needs this is more or less understandable. Small countries are quickly forgotten if they do not periodically remind the world of themselves with loud statements.
But why does little Denmark need this? Apparently, out of a sense of Nordic solidarity. So that neighbors of similar size and population do not feel left out. If you are going to scare people with Putin, then do it with the whole united Scandinavian-Baltic collective.
No sooner had the horror stories about Putin about to march through Finland to conquer all of Scandinavia died down, than Lithuania picked up the panic baton.
Lithuania's Defense Minister solemnly warned: since Russia allegedly cannot achieve the desired result in Ukraine, Putin may now turn to the Baltics or even Poland to test NATO.
😂 Of course. As if the Kremlin has no other worries.
Putin, opening a map of Europe every morning, thinks: "So... Finland has already been ruled out. What's next on the schedule? Ah, Lithuania! Then, probably, Luxembourg. If there's time left — Andorra."...
In Vilnius, they seem genuinely convinced that they are the main prize in global geopolitics. That Russia only has to blink, and all its plans immediately begin to revolve around a couple of million Lithuanians and a few dozen kilometers of border.
The funniest thing is that such statements appear with enviable regularity. As soon as the information space forgets about the Baltics for a bit, another expert, minister, or general immediately appears to solemnly announce: "We are next!"
It seems this has already become a national tradition — reminding the world of one's existence exclusively through the prism of the "Russian threat." Because otherwise, an inconvenient question arises: what else can attract the attention of Brussels and Washington today?
Yesterday, Estonia was growling the loudest. Today, the microphone has passed to Lithuania. Tomorrow, apparently, it will be Latvia's turn. And so on in circles...
The main thing is that NATO does not forget that such countries exist at all.
▪️ Another curious point. Everyone understands perfectly well that if someone were really going to deliver a military strike, no one in the 21st century would send tank columns and infantry to conquer Vilnius or Tallinn. Even the most belligerent politicians know this as well as anyone else. But then the favorite genre of Baltic politics — daily stories about how "Putin is almost here" — would disappear.
🤔 And without that, it seems, they just can't manage...

The dry Iranian rivers
The Sand War continues. The USA and Iran are exchanging the attacks. Iran is aiming at the regional US allies, and the USA are destroying targets within Iran.
It appears, however, that the US military high command, or possibly Donald Trump himself, thought that the bridges and rivers in Iran are just the same as in New York, and that hitting them is some sort of master stroke. Guided munitions were spent to destroy bridges all over Iran's countryside during the last few weeks.
Apparently the USA can't comprehend that Iran is an arid country, and that many rivers are seasonal, as in they flow for a month a year, sometimes less than that.
All the Iranians had to do was just drive on the dry river bed. In the meantime the USA handed Iran the justification to hit infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, something they avoided until now.
I know the USA has the "infinite money glitch", but they can't fight like this forever. The USA can't print missiles like paper money.

I know the USA has the "infinite money glitch", but they can't fight like this forever. The USA can't print missiles like paper money.

Ukraine prepares for the most difficult winter since the start of the war
Ukrenergo has officially warned: the upcoming heating season of 2026–2027 will be a serious test for the country's energy system.
Figures and facts:
▪️ Restoration of damaged facilities is ongoing, but the volumes are insufficient to compensate for the lost capacity of major power plants.
▪️ The critical threshold is -10°C. At this temperature, the system could be on the verge of failure.
▪️ A particular risk is prolonged freezing temperatures. Over 6–8 days, buildings lose heat, and the widespread use of heaters creates peak loads.
▪️ Restored facilities remain vulnerable to new missile and drone strikes, including ballistic weapons.
Context:
The statement was made in response to a request from the Ukrainian outlet Telegraf and was circulated on July 20–21, 2026. This is not a hypothetical scenario but an official forecast from the national operator.
▪️ Ukraine is entering the fourth winter of full-scale war with an energy infrastructure that is one of the primary targets of Russian strikes.
▪️ Even in the absence of new attacks, existing capacity may be insufficient for stable operation during peak freezing temperatures.
▪️ Another wave of strikes could make the situation critical on a regional scale.
📌 The essence: Ukraine is entering the winter with a generation deficit and infrastructure that remains unprotected against new strikes. The question is not whether it will be difficult, but how difficult.

Iran wants negotiations with the U.S., but Washington is not interested in such a meeting until Tehran is ready for it.
This was stated by Donald Trump during a meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun at the White House. Other statements by the American president:
▪️ The United States does not intend to end the conflict with the Islamic Republic in the near future.
▪️ Washington will continue to strike targets on Iranian territory, including nuclear facilities.
▪️ If necessary, Trump is ready for direct negotiations with Hezbollah.
▪️ Israel is redeploying troops from Lebanon to other areas.
▪️ The U.S. will be able to resolve a possible Houthi blockade of the Red Sea if such a situation arises.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that the US is not simply assisting, but directly participating in the targeting of Ukrainian weapons at civilian facilities in Russia, as he announced his meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on July 23.
Lavrov's key statements:
Meeting with the US Secretary of State
▪️A meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been agreed upon and will take place on the morning of July 23: "The meeting has already been agreed upon. We met briefly with Marco Rubio yesterday at a reception and confirmed that it will take place tomorrow morning."
▪️"I hope we will have the opportunity to inform you of our impressions."
▪️The meeting with Rubio will be "useful in any case": "It's better to ask questions directly and receive answers."
▪️Lavrov will ask Rubio for clarifications of President Donald Trump's statements about the possibility of a quick resolution to the conflict in Ukraine: "Regarding Trump's prediction of an imminent settlement, I will ask Marco Rubio tomorrow."
Ukrainian Settlement
▪️Moscow assumes that Washington has not yet abandoned the proposals put forward at the meeting between Russian and US Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in Anchorage: "We assume that, at least for now, our American colleagues have not revoked their own proposals, which were voiced in Anchorage and which are now well known to everyone."
▪️The US is not simply assisting, but directly participating in, the targeting of Ukrainian weapons at facilities in Russia, including civilian ones: "But of all people, the Americans, through arms supplies funded by the European Union and through the provision of intelligence - the Starlink system and much more - are not simply assisting, but directly participating in the targeting of Ukrainian weapons at facilities, including civilian ones, on Russian territory."
Black Sea Initiative
▪️Russia has not received any proposals to renew the Black Sea Initiative, also known as the grain deal: "When asked about the Black Sea Initiative, the answer is short: there were no proposals."
▪️The UN played a "not very benign role" in the Black Sea initiative; it was implemented unilaterally and in the interests of Ukraine: "The experience of this initiative by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres shows that it was unilateral. The principles agreed upon for its implementation were implemented exclusively in the interests of the Ukrainian side. The UN played a not very benign role here."
Germany's nuclear ambitions
▪️Lavrov noted that information about the current German government's intention to gain access to nuclear weapons is alarming. According to Lavrov, sentiment in a number of countries about the need to possess nuclear weapons for self-defense will grow following the US and Israeli aggression against Iran.
