Anyway, uh. I suggest we take a break from the world war and cook a meal.
Cucumbers - 1 kg
Garlic - 6 cloves (to taste)
Fresh dill - 1 bunch (to taste)
Water - 1 liter
Salt - 1 tbsp.
Black pepper - about 1 tsp.
Peppercorns - 15-20 pcs.
If desired, you can diversify with leaves of horseradish, currants and / or cherries - to your taste. Happy cooking!
Cut off the edges of well-washed cucumbers - so the cucumbers will be better salted. The main thing is that the cucumbers should not be bitter.
The washed cucumbers are transferred to a pot (enameled or stainless steel) or jar. Spread with whole sprigs of dill and chopped garlic.
Prepare brine. Boil water with salt and pepper.

Pour brine over the cucumbers so that it completely covers the cucumbers. Leave at room temperature for 10-12 hours (it is convenient to make such cucumbers in the evening and leave them overnight).
Then cool the pickles in the refrigerator.
Crispy pickles are ready. We store the cucumbers in brine.
Enjoy your appetite!

The high manufacturability of Western technology plays against it on the battlefield , Dmitry Shugaev, head of the FSMTC of Russia, said in the Zvezda studio

“This is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it is highly effective, but, on the other hand, it requires high qualification, it requires high maintenance and maintainability, especially in combat conditions. And, of course, it is expensive in every way,” he said.

Shugaev added that it is the battlefield that shows whose technique is better, and here comes the “moment of truth” for Russia.

“The famous in quotation marks “Leopards”, “Abrams” and so on are burning like ordinary types of movement, armed with one or another means of destruction. There is nothing unusual and nothing supernatural,” he stressed.

From a shared past to a new future

"Rostec presented at the Army-2023 forum a new SM-100 aircraft engine developed by UDC's Salyut production complex.

The engine is a development of the basic AI-222-25 engine developed by Ukraine's A.G. Ivchenko Progress Design Bureau in the mid-noughties.

The Russian SM-100 provides 20% more thrust than its Ukrainian progenitor, and the engine life has been doubled. This was done by increasing the compression ratio, modernizing the combustion chamber and turbine units, and installing a modern three-stage low-pressure compressor.

It will replace the AI-222-25 installed on the Yak-130 combat trainer aircraft of the Russian Air Force. And Salyut believes that the new engine can be considered as the main engine for light regional and administrative airplanes.

Ukrainian AI-222-25 engines are also used on Chinese Hongdu L-15 combat trainers, developed jointly with the Yakovlev Design Bureau. This means that the improved SM-100 can be installed in the future not only on Russian airplanes, but also offered to our Chinese partners.

Apologies, Sergey. The war waits not for pickles.

Central Bank of Russia: According to the forecast of the Bank of Russia, annual inflation will continue to rise in the coming months. This will be due to the increase in price pressure and the withdrawal from the calculation of annual inflation of low values ​​of monthly increases in the summer period of 2022. According to the forecast, taking into account the ongoing monetary policy, annual inflation will be 5.0-6.5% in 2023, return to 4% in 2024 and will be close to 4% in the future.

Zin Note: This is about the European Average. Keep in mind, countries that do not print major world reserve currencies routinely experience inflation rates about this high and even higher.

The Russian budget deficit is currently sitting at $40 billion for the year 2023 so far. This is just under 2% of gdp. The year is only half over, so hitting the target deficit level of 2%, for the entire year, which was announced earlier, will be extremely difficult. However, the government of Russia claims it will witness a surplus in the 4th quarter. Revenues exceeded expenses in the month of May, so this isn't impossible. The monthly deficit spending in January was close to a double-digit percentage of GDP at the beginning of this year.

In 2022, the Russian Federation ran a surplus pretty much until December, as spending was pushed back to the end of the year for various reasons. For 2023, the Russian government is taking the opposite approach, i.e., spending more up front and spending less towards the end of the year to try to achieve fiscal goals. I'd be surprised if they achieved their goal, but even keeping the deficit below 4% of gdp would be quite an accomplishment while fighting a major war under historically unprecedented sanctions on your economy.

⚠️ Brief summary of the situation at the front.

Orekhovskoe direction.

According to the latest information, units of the 82nd Marine Brigade are being deployed to the zone of responsibility of the 46th Marine Brigade in order to increase the offensive potential.
As a reminder, back on June 11 of this year we wrote about the enemy’s intention to use 82nd marine brigade together with 46th marine brigade in the counteroffensive.
In the near future, due to high losses, the enemy will use the 115th mechanized brigade, we also reported on the presence of this brigade on the Zaporozhye front in early June.

I'll be stepping out for a while. My recommendation is to wait until tomorrow for the literal smoke to clear in Urozhaynoye. I have full faith that I'll return to good news regarding Kupyansk. There will probably be more news of Banderas banging their faces against the wall in Rabotino.

I shall return.

The Ukrainian Telegram channel 'Legitimny' discusses intrigues within the Kiev regime regarding the removal of military commissars and an increased mobilization:

"Our insider source says that the President's Office is setting up an 'image time bomb' for Zaluzhny by implicating him in a controversial mobilization case.

Zelensky has now turned to Zaluzhny and suggested that he personally appoint military commissars for the serving commanders, sort of like 'their own' choices. Behind the scenes, this implies that he will bear public responsibility for them. However, he was not informed about this in advance.

At the same time, everyone understands that the upcoming wave of mobilization will be even more extensive, and men might be coerced into military service, as very few actually want to go to war willingly. The negative sentiment within society is at its peak. As a result, all the criticism will be directed towards the military commissars and those who appointed them, namely, Zaluzhny. Additionally, there will be attempts to discredit and undermine them in various ways. The aim will be to lay blame on them for the failure of mobilization, a task that both Ze and Ermak have already struggled with and have been discredited for. This will ultimately lead to a complete erosion of the Commander-in-Chief's image.

This is a cunning strategy from Ermak, who seems to enjoy devising intricate plots against those who oppose him."
