All of a sudden, “American Indian” has new meaning.
“Deprived of her colonies and her commerce, England would at once sink to the level of the smaller states of Europe, following in the wake of Holland and Venice and Spain, who in their days have been great and powerful, but who have declined with the loss of their foreign possessions and the commerce which they sustained. ...No single event could strike so serious a blow as the loss of India. Of all the great possessions- it is hardly a colony- it is the most alien to the British race, and it is held as a mere money-making investment. Its people are ground with extortionate taxation, are allowed no voice in their own affairs, are treated with studied scorn. ...It is held as a market in which to buy cheap and sell dear, and as a placein which younger sons and needy relations can amass fortunes to be subsequently enjoyed in England. Its loss would result in a financial crisis which would shake the whole fabric of England's commercial prosperity, and deal a blow at her political prestige from which she could hardly recover.”

“”I have also attempted to give prominence to the Russian views of the question- which, in the main, I believe to the correct ones- because Americans are in the habit of hearing only the other side. Our language being the same as that of England, and the opinions of the Continent being transmitted to us principally through the English press, we receive constantly the most prejudiced, unfair, and at times false statements about Eastern affairs."”
“Russia then asked what was the drift of England's policy; what were her ideas in the matter? To which Lord Derby replied, that he thought nothing remained but to let the struggle aontinue until success should declare itself on one side or the other. In other words, in British phrase, form a ring and let 'em fight it out with the usual result of indiscriminate slaughter and pillage..."

Lavrov slams Europe’s striving to isolate Russia as silly
It demonstrates the quality of decisions passed by European politicians in the west of the continent, Russian Foreign Minister said.
"So far, Europe wants to fence itself off from Russia and isolate us. There is no need to explain that this is silly," he said in an interview with Bosnia’s ATV television channel. "It only demonstrates the quality of decisions passed by European politicians in the west of the continent. But the door should be left open.".
The West is lying when it says that Russia allegedly refuses from talks on Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister said.
"Statements that we are rejecting talks are made every day. They claim that they want but we allegedly refuse. This is dishonest. Although, we don’t expect aby honesty from out Western partners any more," he said

“The brief, filed with the state Supreme Court Wednesday, sides with Priorities USA, the national non-profit group that brought the lawsuit against the prohibition. Democratic Gov. Tony Evers also joined the lawsuit earlier this month, arguing for the use of drop boxes.
Drop boxes were banned by the state Supreme Court in 2021 when a group of Waukesha County voters challenged their legality. In a mixed opinion, the then-conservative controlled Court ruled that drop boxes were illegal because they weren’t staffed by municipal clerks or their employees. Prior to the ban, drop boxes had been used for years in 66 of the state’s 72 counties. At the time of that decision, there were 570 operating drop boxes across the state.”

🇭🇺🇺🇦 Hungary will not extradite Ukrainian male refugees to Ukraine, Hungary’s Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Schemien told atv.
"We do not investigate whether a person, in the opinion of the Ukrainian authorities, is subject to conscription for military service or not.

Every refugee from Ukraine is completely safe and receives all the help, whether either Hungarian or Ukrainian,” he said.
Earlier, the Minister of the Interior of the German state of Hesse said that Germany should help Ukraine send male refugees to the front.
