Meanwhile, heavy military equipment took to the streets in Switzerland.

Footage from the Zurich night confirms the authorities' concerns about the transfer of French unrest to Switzerland, where there are no fewer migrants than in an ordinary EU country.

Scholz explained that Crimea belongs to Ukraine because Russia was the first to leave the USSR: Crimea has long belonged to Ukraine. We must not forget that already during the Soviet Union, Ukraine was an independent state with UN membership. And by the way, Russia was the first to leave the Soviet Union, not Ukraine. And Crimea has always belonged to Ukraine.

Павел Владимирович:

Olaf Scholz, the bootlicking halfwit that he is, continues to tell half-truths to prove irrelevant points. Notice here especially how he tries to have it both ways. Mr. Scholz, I thought you were all in favour of democracy and freedom, so why then are you telling Crimeans, who overwhelmingly voted to join Russia, that they are a part of Ukraine? Any brief history study that isn’t written on howtobenatohack.org will show the flimsiness of Scholz’s historic claims. The Crimean territory was transferred to Ukrainian Socialist Republic in 1954, while it was still directly a USSR territory. Ukraine became an independent country in 1991, so I guess Crimea can be called “Ukrainian” since 32 years ago. Scholz calling 32 years “always Ukrainian” shows the short-sightedness of Western politicians, who, even if they believe the toxic garbage spewed out of their mouths, cannot see 5 years ahead or back. When Crimea was taken by the Russian Empire in 1783 it was taken from the Crimean Khanate, not Ukraine, because Ukraine didn’t exist.

Also, how’s Danzig looking?

“Europe is a blooming garden. The rest of the world is a jungle," said the head of Eurodiplomacy Borrell

True, even then he mentioned that " the jungle can capture this garden ."

🇷🇺 🇪🇺 The West seeks to restore relations with Russia, despite all the obligations to Kiev. This was stated by a member of the European Parliament (EP) and former Polish Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski.

🇺🇦“We are witnessing the process of convincing Ukraine of the need to freeze the conflict. It is assumed that it is necessary to repeat the situation of 2015, and then conclude an agreement with Russia, ” said Waszczykowski, whose words are quoted by the Energetyka24 website.

👍The MP is sure that the West needs to cooperate with Russia. In particular, Germany is interested in good relations with Moscow. Contrary to all the promises of Western politicians, the principle “business is business” will come to the fore in relations with Russia, Waszczykowski stressed.

🇺🇸Earlier, the United States called on Ukraine to leave Donbass alone. The population of Donbass wants to continue to stay with Russia, so Ukraine is trying in vain to take the territories under its control by military means, said American journalist Natalie Morris.

Lol. My money is in your bank. Close the account, tell some very unpleasant words to the manager, and go somewhere else. Why does he need to complain?

July 5, 2023, marks exactly 80 years since the beginning of the Battle of Kursk.

It was during it that the Nazi army first used the Panther tanks (because of the expectation of their deliveries, the timing of the offensive of the German troops was constantly postponed), which were involved in the largest tank battle in world history - near Prokhorovka (photo from there).

But the main significance of the Kursk Bulge is that the defeat of the Germans in it became a radical turning point in the Second World War.

However, other battles besides the Kursk Bulge were nominated for this role by historians - both Stalingrad and El Alamein, and the landing of the allies in Normandy.

El Alamein clearly does not win the nomination: the battles in Africa during the war were not considered the main ones either in Berlin, or in Moscow, or Washington with London, and the Egyptian battle in the autumn of 1942 did not affect the main, European, front of the war in any way.

The landing of the allies in Normandy also disappears - by the summer of 1944, the initiative on all fronts belonged to the anti-Hitler coalition, and the question was only about the timing of the end of the war.

Of the two remaining options, the Battle of Stalingrad is much more often considered a radical turning point, and this can be considered the correct answer, but only half: the battle on the Volga was the moment of a political turning point in the war - it was after it that it became clear that Germany could not win. But there is a significant difference between "not winning" and "losing".

This is the difference between the consequences of Stalingrad and the Kursk salient. It was the latter that became militarily a turning point for the entire course of the Second World War. After it, the Germans lost the initiative, went on the defensive, and were able to carry out only one major offensive operation - in the winter of 1944-45 in the Ardennes on the Western Front - but it had to be stopped because of the Red Army's offensive on the Eastern Front.

👆👆👆
Remember this picture if you ever read about the battle of Prokhorovka in English Wikipedia where nazi fun boys wrote that Germans lost only 6 tanks.

"Russia carried out a grandiose special operation in Europe in the noughties, tens and twenties. Through its channels, it moved hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants into Europe to wreak havoc there. It was a Russian special operation, it was a time bomb under European democracy": Gordon explained the reasons for the unrest in France

Note: these people always blame the Russians for everything

Via CyberspecNews:

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦In the Orekhov-Rabotino sector (Zaporizhie Front), the AFU once again launched an attack north of Rabotino: they were able to penetrate the vanguard defense line by about 300 meters,

A change of tactics was used:

Instead rushing columns across the fields, they sent mainly infantry into the forest lines, one of which leads directly to Rabotino.

After regrouping, Russian detachments launched a counterattack and recaptured a lot of the lost positions...some accounts mention about 150m

Dmitry Medvedev:

I will note one thing that politicians of all stripes do not like to admit: a nuclear Apocalypse is not only possible, but also quite likely. Why?
There are at least two reasons.

First. The world is in a much worse confrontation than during the Cuban crisis, because our opponents decided to really defeat the largest nuclear power - Russia. They are, without a doubt, complete jerks, but that's exactly it.

And the second reason is quite prosaic - nuclear weapons have already been used by someone somewhere, which means there is no taboo!

From the article "The Era of Confrontation". Rossiyskaya Gazeta. July 3, 2023

❗️ More than 50 attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Lugansk tactical direction were repelled by Russian soldiers over the past week

Andriy Marochko, a military expert, said with reference to his own sources.

Berliner-Zeitung:

Ukraine loses war equipment: So many Leopard 2 are said to have been destroyed so far

A total of 54 Leopard 2 tanks have been delivered to Ukraine
However, according to a study by Spiegel, only 130 of the 300 Leopard 2 are ready for use today due to decades of underinvestment in the armaments sector. The exact number of losses the Ukrainian army has suffered so far, is unknown because Kiev does not publish these statistics. The platform „ Oryx “ from the Netherlands documents the loss of war equipment on both sides based on public sources. In addition, the listed weapon systems are documented using a geolocalized photo. According to the data, four Leopard 2A6 and three Leopard 2A4 have been destroyed so far. In addition, 25 Bradley armored personnel carriers from the USA, three mine clearance tanks and a mountain tank...

A total of 18 Leopard 2A6 from Germany and 36 Leopard 2A4 from Poland, Spain, Norway and Canada have been delivered to Ukraine – makes 54 main battle tanks. If one takes the „ Oryx “ numbers as the basis, about 13 percent of the main battle tanks have been destroyed so far.

Head of the Lvov military enlistment office: 80% of Ukrainians do not want to fight.

About 20% of the required number of military personnel voluntarily come to the military enlistment offices. Half of them are contract workers, said the head of the Lvov regional territorial centre Alexander Tishchenko.

According to him, in order to fulfil the plan, military commissars are handing out summons on the streets and at home.

"If there are no such searches, sending for clarification of data, then mobilization may be under threat," explained Tishchenko.

Thus, we come to the conclusion that 80% of those mobilized in the Armed Forces initially did not want to participate in the conflict, which percentage of them are "sofa warriors", and who is the ideological opponent of the Kiev regime - time will tell.

Podolyak responded to Obama's statement about Crimea

He criticized the words of Barack Obama and called the recent speech of the President of the United States, in which he stated that "there was no armed invasion of Crimea in 2014," appalling.

Americans, line up quickly! The tail continues to wag the dog.

The bloody cocktail "Russo-turisto" (an old Soviet film reference) with a shark is gaining popularity in Ukraine. Ukrainians rejoice at the death of Russians.

How much vile bloodlust, sadistic maniacality and thirst for suffering overwhelms Ukrainians...

Note from Павел Владимирович:

This, seemingly pointless behaviour, perfectly summarises the results of decades of indoctrination of Ukrainians. Everything is Russia’s fault, death to Moskals. You must truly be lost if, while your country burns and hundreds of thousands die in idiotic attacks, you find pleasure in a Russian tourist being killed by a shark. As the old Russian joke goes: “What is the difference between a modern Ukrainian and a Soviet one? In Soviet times, every Ukrainian imbecile was turned into a human. In modern times, every human made by the Soviet Union was turned into an imbecile.”
