I do have one question, how used does such a doll have to be to qualify as overused? 🤔

FT: citizens who fled the country began to return to Russia.

Citizens who fled the country began to return to Russia due to deteriorating living conditions abroad and the worsening situation in the Middle East, the Financial Times newspaper reports .

“This is definitely not economic migration in the classical sense. <...> These are people who were very competent specialists in Russia, and now they are losing money, status... Many people’s quality of life is declining,” said European University researcher Ivetta Sergeeva.

According to Sergeeva’s research, up to 15% of citizens who fled Russia after the start of a special military operation have already returned. The study also gives an example of specialist Igor Gazarov, who first went to Armenia and then to Kazakhstan with his wife. However, after a few weeks of work, the couple came to the conclusion that they “cannot cope with the Kazakh standard of living.”

Bloomberg learned about the “shameful” quarrel between the leaders of the European Union.

Von der Leyen does not take into account the agreed position of the EU countries on Israel's war with Hamas, which led to a conflict with Borrell and Michel. Sources told Bloomberg that this offended some countries and interferes with the European Union.

A conflict is flaring up between the two most senior leaders of the European Union - the head of the European Council Charles Michel and the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen over the latter's autonomous activity in foreign policy issues. Bloomberg writes about this with reference to diplomats and officials.

The claims against von der Leyen concern her statements about her full support for Israel in the war against the Hamas group, while European countries agreed on a position on the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, but she did not properly reflect it. According to the agency, European diplomats are almost unanimous in criticizing the head of the EC, and some officials were forced to eliminate problems in relations with Arab countries after her trip to Israel.

The interlocutors described the situation as a “shameful split at the top”, which reduces the effectiveness of the EU leadership at a time when a strong position on Ukraine, Israel, China and trade issues is required.

'As far as the defence industry, I mean, they are happy to make money. They are happy. Any war is an opportunity for them to make more money,' says John Varoli, American journalist and analyst. Amid the military operations in Ukraine, the market value of major Western defence corporations increased by 21.5% in 2022. All these big companies continue to push the American government to have an offensive position on Ukraine, through intense lobbying. How high are they willing to raise the stakes in this major war game?

Vladimir Putin held a meeting with representatives of Russia’s religious associations to address issues of interethnic and interfaith relations in the country and discuss the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Highlights from the President’s remarks:

🔹Harmony between different ethnic and religious groups is the pillar of Russian statehood. For all of us, such harmony and unity in our society is an essential value.

🔹Vladimir Putin expressed heartfelt condolences to Israeli families and citizens of other countries whose loved ones were killed or injured in the October 7 attack.

🔹It is clear that innocent people should not be held accountable for crimes committed by others. The fight against terrorism cannot be conducted on the notorious principle of collective responsibility.

🔹Russia's position on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is well known and has been explicitly stated on multiple occasions. It is founded on the UN Security Council resolutions which envisage the creation of two independent sovereign states, Israel and Palestine. This is the key to a lasting and fundamental settlement and peace in the Middle East.

🔹The primary goal is to stop bloodshed and violence. Further escalation of the crisis poses the risk of severe and highly dangerous and destructive consequences not just for the Middle Eastern region. It can spill far beyond the borders of the Middle East.

🔹We see the attempts of certain forces to incite further escalation by dragging as many other countries and nations as possible into the conflict and using them in their own selfish interests. To this end, they are trying to exploit the ethnic and religious sentiments of millions of people, which has been their policy for a long time.

🔹The West can see that the emergence of a multipolar world order is gaining speed, and it is deploying all the same means, such as Islamophobia, anti-Semitism and Russophobia, to hinder the progress of independent sovereign countries and divide the global majority.

❗️💥The Russian Armed Forces have begun actively using Lancet barrage munitions with a new guidance system.

In fact, the target recognition and acquisition system of the new Lancet (also known as Izdeliye-53) works like the homing head of an air-to-surface missile, which makes it possible to achieve absolute accuracy in hitting the target, including moving objects.

It is worth noting that after destroying the Czech RM-70 Vampire MLRS, the drone also targeted the Czech 152mm wheeled SAU vz.77 Dana.

With the introduction of the new Lancet, the crew's tasks are reduced to selecting a combat zone and launching the drone from the catapult. Target search and acquisition functions are automated, and the crew can change position immediately after launch.

Russia and China have vetoed a US draft resolution at the UN Security Council that did not call for a ceasefire in the besieged Gaza Strip.

“The US draft resolution was not balanced and does not reflect the required call for a ceasefire, and therefore it cannot be allowed to pass because it will completely make the Council lose its credibility,” Russia Today website quoted Russia’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Vasily Nebenzia, as saying during a Security Council session.

In turn, the Chinese Representative to the Security Council stressed that the US draft resolution equates the victim with the executioner, and does not reflect the required call for a ceasefire.

The Chinese diplomat called for opening humanitarian corridors, delivering aid to the Gaza Strip, and preventing the forced displacement of its people.

Russia and China used their Veto to prevent direct US UK military intervention in #Syria also. A new civilised world is emerging from the moral disintegration of the collective West.
