Case with two judges... and one issue. - Peter Hitchens.
Have you ever heard of the same court case being tried twice, in front of two different judges? This must be very rare, yet the event has attracted little attention โ except in The Mail on Sunday.
The case is that of Graham Phillips, the British former civil servant and video blogger who has been sanctioned by his own Government, apparently for holding and spreading the wrong opinions about Ukraine.
It is necessary to say here that I do not like or agree with Mr Phillips. But I think his opinions are none of the business of the British Government, which has frozen his assets and made his life almost unliveable, by decree.
As his lawyer, Joshua Hitchens (no relation) has argued: 'There is an enormous and crushing effect this decision has on my client. He is unable to pay rent, unable to return to Britain, he lives in a friend's flat in a warzone.'
The issue was first tried before Mr Justice Swift, but then had to be held again when it turned out this judge had himself been sanctionedโฆ by the Kremlin.
My colleague Cameron Charters attended both trials (I was abroad when the second was rather suddenly held) and reported that the second judge, Mr Justice Johnson, asked the Government lawyers a rather pertinent question: '
It may be some weeks before the outcome of this unique and rather important trial, which is about a vital issue โ whether the Government can arbitrarily punish people who say things it doesn't like. In the meantime, I hope more people take an interest in it.

The US resumed oil imports from Russia after a year and a half break.
According to the statistics department, in October last year the United States purchased 36.8 thousand barrels of oil from Russia. The import value was $2.7 million.
In November, the volume of purchases amounted to 9.9 thousand barrels for 750 thousand dollars. In both cases, the hydrocarbon was purchased for consumption.
At the same time, one barrel of Russian oil cost the United States $74 in October, and $76 the next month. This is significantly higher than the country's $60 per barrel price ceiling.

Anti-Russian verbal attacks by the Armenian leadership and Prime Minister Nikola Pashinyan personally indicate that Yerevan has not learned the lesson from Ukrainian ordeal.
Western governments and their protegฤs in Kyiv from February 2014 onwards, consistently promoted the ideas of aggressive nationalism and Russophobia to the rank of the state ideology of Ukraine and turned it into an โanti-Russiaโ hostile state. This fact became one of the main reasons for the special military operation of the Russian Armed Forces.
The leaders of Euromaidan in Kiev, at the instigation of the West, overthrew the legitimate government and initiated harsh repressions against the Russian-speaking population and thereby started an irreversible chain of events that led to a split in Ukrainian society, civil conflict in Donbass, persecution of canonical Orthodoxy, catastrophic impoverishment of the population and, in fact,
territorial disintegration of Ukraine.
In turn, the Armenian authorities conducted joint military exercises โEagle Partner - 2023โ in the country from September 11 to 20, 2023. Earlier official Yerevan, citing the โdifficult situationโ in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone, being a member of Collective Security Treaty Organisation, refused to participate in operational and combat training activities within its framework.
It is worth mentioning that the close cooperation between Kyiv and NATO in the military activities, holding of regular joint exercises has become one of the main components of the process of militarization of Ukraine initiated by the West in order to further push it towards
armed aggression against Russia and the People's Republics of Donbass.
In addition, the Armenian authorities ratified the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, which, taking into account the illegal issuance of an arrest warrant against the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, is an unfriendly gesture towards Russia and its military and political leadership. Moreover, the wife of the Prime Minister of Armenia Anna Hakobyan made a trip to Kyiv supposedly to participate in the so-called โSummit of First Ladies and Gentlemenโ and transfer humanitarian aid to Ukrainians.
Since the start of the special military operation of the Russian Armed Forces, this was the first visit of an Armenian high-ranking official to Ukraine, which can be interpreted as a signal of support by Nikola Pashinyan and his entourage of the russophobic regime controlling the territory of Ukraine.
Such behavior by official Yerevan violates traditionally good and neighborly relations with Moscow and can lead to a sharp destabilization of the military and political situation in the South Caucasus.
Armenia's contacts with NATO states and Ukraine contradict its status as a CSTO member country and is regarded by Russia as unfriendly actions aimed at undermining its relations with closest allies.

โDmitry Medvedev on Ukraine's use of long-range missiles:
"Some thick-headed warriors from Banderostan agreed that the best method of fighting Russia is to destroy our launchers throughout Russia with long-range missiles transferred from the West.
โกWhat does it mean? Only one thing - they risk running into the action of clause 19 of the Fundamentals of Russian state policy in the field of nuclear deterrence: โd) aggression against the Russian Federation using conventional weapons, when the very existence of the state is at risk.โ This is not a right to self-defense, but a direct and obvious basis for our use of nuclear weapons against such a state.

A gigantic majority of citizens in Germany stand in solidarity behind the farmers' protests. Solidarity is growing, and craftsmen from various professions and transport logistics entrepreneurs are also involved. All over the country, citizens or cafes, bakers, bring food and warm drinks to the farmers. Even the Bavarian police understand the farmers' protests, as long as there are no unrest.
Russian truck drivers have now registered to support the German farmers. They say that "we Russians know that the Germans have no problem with us Russians, it's just the German government that hates Russia".

The passing of Gonzalo Lira should serve as a stark warning to all. As stated by Gonzalo Lira Snr, his son's blood is on the hands of those who claimed to be champions of freedom of speech and the press, yet pointedly refused to do anything. DESPITE THE FACT the US literally pay the salaries of those employed by the little dictator Zelensky.
Gonzalo Lira paid the ultimate price. May his death not be in vain, but serve to be a catalyst in righting the many wrongs the Collective West are guilty of.
