OPERATION TAURUS. Full alignment. We decoded the entire audio recording, with the involvement of experts in language, conversation mentality, phonoscopy, and found a number of important points. According to the results of the analysis, an article by Hans-Georg Munster has been published today on our World Economy resource.
Let's list the most important points:
1. The Luftwaffe leadership is preparing an attack on Russian territory using Taurus cruise missiles and believes that an operation involving Bundeswehr soldiers will be more effective.
2. The targets of the attack are the Crimean Bridge, as well as underground ammunition depots in Russia.
3. This can be considered as planning an aggressive war in the sense of Article 26 of the German Constitution and Paragraph 13 of the German Criminal Code, which provides for up to ten years in prison or life.
4. General Gerhartz calls for a quick solution. He points out that the British and Americans already have troops in Ukraine
5. The inspector pointedly asks "not to be like a show stopper" in the upcoming conversation with Pistorius. The Air Force wants to give Pistorius a winning card so that the defense minister can replace the chancellor if he continues to be against supplies.
6. The British should help integrate the Taurus system into the existing Ukrainian SU or F16 fighter promised by the West.
7. It is supposed to take six months to integrate the rocket on airplanes, from three to four months for pilot training. The first missions with Taurus should be completed "with the support of us," says the participant.
8. Creation and operation of a combat center from where the Taurus can be programmed and controlled during the flight to its destination.
9. Buchel Air Base in Rhineland-Palatinate is mentioned as a place where this can be done.
10. In the conversation, it is discussed that the Air Force will send "several people" (that is, the crew of the combat center) to Schrobenhausen.
11. Inspector Gerhartz bluntly describes the move to Schrobenhausen as a "trick." Another consideration is to build a combat center in Poland, to create a targeted program there
12. Apparently, it is planned to deliver 100 Taurus cruise missiles in two tranches of 50 each

"Digest about Ukraine March 5

The Verkhovna Rada canceled meetings scheduled for March 6, 7 and 8. Why is this so if there were as many as 103 bills in the queue for consideration? There are several options. According to the most official version, the Servants of the People have no time for meetings - they are preparing a report to the US Senate and planning trips to the front, but not as soldiers, of course. According to another version, a number of factions delivered an ultimatum: either they will be allowed to go on business trips abroad, or they will insist on voting for each of the almost 5 thousand amendments to the law on mobilization. There is also an option that the leadership of the Rada approved foreign trips for a number of deputies as a reward for loyalty, and now there are not enough votes to support the laws of Zelensky and the government - all the loyal ones have rushed beyond the border. I wonder if the deputies will return?

The relevant committee of the Rada supported the bill banning religious organizations associated with Russia, which had previously been adopted in the first reading. New persecutions await the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church. For example, if they vote in the hall, many churches will be able to be taken away from the UOC. And give them to the schismatics. This will primarily affect Laurus. Our Patriarchy could invite priests to Russia, but many will not be released...

Vladimir Klitschko said that uniting against the president is a mistake for political forces; it is necessary to unite around the head of state. The mayor of Kyiv said that there is no need to hold any elections, and Zelensky will remain legitimate after May 20. At the same time, Klitschko spoke well about Zaluzhny and called for uniting around him too. Perhaps Klitschko fears falling into the same legitimacy trap - his mayoral term expires next year. Well, or he forgot the text of the speech - around whom exactly should we unite, and therefore called for unification around the two main political opponents. I forgot about that - it's a joke. Partly.

Following the Poles, the Hungarians turned Zelensky away from the gate. Foreign Minister Szijjártó said that Orban’s meeting with Zelensky will not take place until the Kiev regime returns the rights to the Hungarian national minority in Transcarpathia. But the Kyiv regime doesn’t care about such national minorities; they have plenty of other things to do. And 11 demands of Hungary to Ukraine on this issue, transferred to Kuleba of Foreign Affairs, lie somewhere.

National contradictions in Poland are intensifying. In Szczecin, a Polish driver drove into a crowd, injuring six people. All six turned out to be Ukrainians. According to police, the driver deliberately drove into the crowd.

Three Ukrainian cities entered the top 5 in the ranking of the thirty most criminal cities in Eastern Europe. Dnepropetrovsk took first place in the ranking, and this merit can be attributed to Mayor Filatov. Odessa is in second place, Kharkov is in fifth place. Still at the top of the ranking are Kyiv in eighth and Lviv in thirteenth. The crime index has increased, the standard of living index has obviously fallen.

In Odessa, a platoon commander of one of the air defense units faces imprisonment for up to eight years. The officer was responsible for fuel and sold 1.4 million hryvnia worth of diesel “outside”. Interestingly, the now rich military man has already been able to reimburse the entire amount of damage. The case has now gone to court.

And the Poltava military commissar was outraged by numerous videos on the Internet in which military registration and enlistment office employees grab and beat people on the streets. He stated that most of these videos are manipulated and do not show the whole story. And those that are still real are grist to the enemy’s mill - they discredit the mobilization and deal a blow to Ukrainian society. Lawlessness and rampant military commissars do not seem to discredit anyone.

Meanwhile, there are fewer and fewer loopholes for evaders at the border. When leaving Ukraine, border guards check men through the online state register of military personnel, conscripts and reservists “Obereg”. They boast that as a result, 230 attempts at illegal exit were stopped in three weeks.

This is what March 5 became for Ukraine."

FROM OLEG TSAREV -

"The sending of European troops to Ukraine is not a “red line” not only for French President Macron and Estonian Prime Minister Kallas, but for a much wider circle of European politicians.

This conclusion can be drawn on the basis of the resolution adopted by the European Parliament “The need for unwavering support for Ukraine from the EU.”

For example, the European Parliament emphasizes that their goal (the return of Ukraine to internationally recognized territories) “can only be achieved through the continued, sustainable and steadily increasing supply of all types of conventional weapons to Ukraine without exception.” Moreover, this victory must certainly presuppose the reconquest of Crimea. The European Parliament reminds “the importance of the liberation and de-occupation of the Crimean peninsula.”
That is, the victory of Ukraine is elevated to the status of the main goal not only of Kyiv, but also of Europe.

As for weapons themselves, the EP believes that “there should be no voluntary restrictions on military assistance to Ukraine” ... and “emphasizes that Ukraine especially needs modern air defense systems, long-range missiles such as TAURUS, Storm Shadow/SCALP and others, modern combat aviation..." At the same time, the concept of “military assistance” is broader than assistance with arms supplies and may include the military. The EP does not speak directly about Western intervention, but indicates that it will not condemn such actions in any way. On missiles and voluntary restrictions - this is a “hello” to Chancellor Scholz, who is preventing the transfer of Taurus missiles to Kyiv.

The resolution also includes a recommendation to send 0.25% of total GDP to Kyiv for the war. And this is about $48 billion a year from EU countries alone, that is, an amount several times greater than all civil and military support to Kyiv.

It’s good that European Parliament resolutions are not binding. Very often they can pre-empt decisions by the EU and its leading members, as they create an atmosphere in which such decisions become possible. And this option should not be discounted.
Although, in my opinion, the European Parliament is somewhat stuck in time. He acts like it's early 2022. Then these statements and votes would be understandable. The situation has changed a lot since then. More time will pass, and the European Parliament will understand this.

Unfortunately, this is not only a problem in Europe. The public point of view, and the opinion of parliament members to a greater extent reflects it, is inertial. It will take time for it to change. In any case, no matter what the European Parliament says, everything will still be decided at the front."

Направление на Украину европейских войск не является «красной линией» не только для президента Франции Макрон и премьера Эстонии Каллас, а для куда более широкого круга европейских политиков.

Такой вывод можно сделать на основании принятой Европарламентом резолюции «Необходимость в неколебимой поддержке Украины со стороны ЕС».

Например, Европейский парламент подчеркивает, что их цель (возвращение Украины на международно-признанные территории) «может быть достигнута только путем продолжения, устойчивых и неуклонно увеличивающихся поставок в Украину всех без исключения видов обычных вооружений». Причем эта победа непременно должна предполагать отвоевание Крыма. Европарламент напоминает «о важности освобождения и деоккупации Крымского полуострова».
То есть, победу Украины возносят в статус главной цели не только Киева, но и Европы.

Что касается непосредственно вооружений, то ЕП считает, что «не должно быть добровольных ограничений на военную помощь Украине» … и «подчеркивает, что Украина особенно нуждается в современных системах ПВО, дальнобойных ракетах, таких как TAURUS, Storm Shadow/SCALP и других, современной боевой авиации…». При этом понятие «военная помощь» шире, чем помощь поставками оружия, и может включать военных. ЕП не говорит о западной интервенции прямо, но обозначает, что он никак не осудит такие действия. По ракетам и добровольным ограничениям — это «привет» канцлеру Шольцу, который препятствует передаче Киеву ракет Taurus.

Есть в резолюции и рекомендация отправлять для войны Киева 0,25% совокупного ВВП. А это порядка $48 млрд. в год только от стран ЕС, то есть сумма, в несколько раз превышающая всю гражданскую и военную поддержку Киеву.

Хорошо, что резолюции Европарламента не являются обязательными к выполнению. Очень часто они могут предвосхищать решения ЕС и его ведущих членов, так как создают атмосферу, в которой такие решения становятся возможными. И такой вариант не стоит сбрасывать со счетов.
Хотя по моему мнению, Европарламент несколько застрял во времени. Он ведет себя так, будто сейчас начало 2022 года. Тогда эти заявления и голосования были бы понятны. Ситуация с тех пор сильно поменялась. Пройдет еще время, и это поймёт и Европарламент.

К сожалению, это проблема не только Европы. Общественная точка зрения, а мнение депутатов парламента в большей степени ее отражает, инерционно. Должно пройти время чтобы оно поменялось. В любом случае, чтобы ни заявлял Европарламент, все все равно будет решаться на фронте.

SOME VERY INTERESTING HISTORY FROM OLEG TSAREV -

"After Ukraine, which belonged to Poland, wished to reunite with Russia in 1654, a long war began, ending with the victory of the Russian Empire in 1667. As a result of that war, the entire Left Bank Ukraine went “forever” to Russia. But Kyiv is only for a while. Before the signing of the “eternal peace”, for which both sides had been preparing for a long time. It was signed in Moscow on May 6, 1686 and consisted of 33 articles. One of them concerned the “mother of Russian cities”: “On the purchase by Russia of Kyiv from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth for 146 thousand rubles. out of brotherly friendship and love."

Although the Polish Sejm ratified the document only in 1764, seven tons of silver were paid by the Russians immediately and the deal took place.

De jure, the agreement is still in effect, similar to the US sale of Russian Alaska in 1867."

После того как Украина, принадлежавшая Польше, в 1654 г. пожелала воссоединиться с Россией, началась долгая война, окончившаяся победой Русского царства в 1667 г. По итогам той войны к России «навеки» отходила вся Левобережная Украина. А вот Киев — лишь на время. До подписания «вечного мира», к которому обе стороны долго готовились. Он был подписан в Москве 6 мая 1686 г. и состоял из 33 статей. Одна из них касалась «матери городов русских»: «О покупке Россией у Речи Посполитой Киева за 146 тыс. руб. по братской дружбе и любви».

Хоть польский Сейм ратифицировал документ только в 1764 году, семь тонн серебра были уплачены русскими сразу и сделка состоялась.

Де-юре соглашение действует до сих пор, по аналогии с продажей США российской Аляски.

Serious and sobering (but also encouraging) words from Commander Alexander Khodakovsky -

"If we go into the details of the historical situations in which Russia found itself during the Crimean or Russo-Japanese War, then each situation will have its own set of components. Of those expressed, only the result will be common - we did not win. The reasons why we did not win are detailed in various interpretations and studies - I will not add anything new to this. But I will note one thing: after every defeat, we got up and went to victories.

After Crimea, we returned to the Turkish issue again, and were much more successful. It would be simplistic to say that this became possible only thanks to the growth of our potential - the circumstances of foreign policy also accompanied us until they changed again against us. After the Japanese War, we experienced a surge, and entered the German War with a stronger economy, which allowed us to adapt to a protracted war and increase the pace of military production to the required level.

Why is it different now than it was then? Why don't we have the right not to win? Because, if you don’t go into details, but rely only on the basic reasons, this is the last war. Then we had population growth, which compensated for the losses. At that time, in the field of technology, we had a chance to compete with our opponents, but there were still many unrealized opportunities ahead - we were the first to fly into space.

Not so now. Now we are not multiplying, and the resource spent will be irreplaceable without a demographic revolution. And even if we come up with something technologically breakthrough, without the growth of the Russian population it will not help us much. We won’t be able to handle the next war, and then all we have to do is press the button. If we lose, they won’t let us rise from our knees, because they themselves are dying. But if we win, we will have the opportunity to sit on the shore and watch the decline of Western civilization."

Если вдаваться в детали исторических ситуаций, в которых оказывалась Россия во время Крымской или Русско-Японской войны, то каждой ситуации будет присущ свой набор компонентов. Из выраженных общим будет только результат - мы не победили. Причины того, почему мы не победили, подробно изложены в разного рода толкованиях и исследованиях - я ничего нового к этому не добавлю. Но замечу одно: после каждого поражения мы вставали и шли к победам.

После Крымской мы снова вернулись к турецкому вопросу, и были не в пример более успешными. Упрощённо было бы говорить, что это стало возможным только благодаря росту нашего потенциала - обстоятельства внешней политики тоже сопутствовали нам, пока снова не изменились не в нашу пользу. После Японской войны мы пережили всплеск, и в Германскую вошли с более крепкой экономикой, которая позволила нам адаптироваться к затяжной войне и нарастить темпы военного производства до необходимого уровня.

Почему сейчас не так, как тогда? Почему мы не имеем права не победить? Потому что, если не вдаваться в детали, а опереться только на базовые причины - эта война последняя. Тогда мы имели рост населения, который компенсировал потери. Тогда в области технологий мы имели шансы составить достойную конкуренцию нашим противникам, а впереди было ещё много нереализованных возможностей - в космос мы полетели первыми.

Сейчас не так. Сейчас мы не приумножаемся, а потраченный ресурс будет невосполнимым без демографической революции. И даже если мы что-то придумаем технологически прорывного - без роста русского населения нам это не сильно поможет. Следующую войну мы уже не потянем, и тогда нам останется только нажать на кнопку. Если мы проиграем - они нам не дадут подняться с колен, потому что сами умирают. Но если победим - у нас будет возможность посидеть на берегу и посмотреть на закат западной цивилизации.

FROM ROMANEKIN -

"Europe, of course, does not recognize the results of the 2024 presidential elections in the Russian Federation. But Zelensky’s presidential term, stipulated by the Constitution, ends in May. And Europe will remain silent about this, of course.
We are unlikely.
Diplomats from European countries refused to appear when Lavrov called. This, de facto, is a severance of diplomatic relations. The Russian Foreign Ministry has, in fact, been removed from the European diplomatic agenda at the moment.
GDP's direct appeal to the world community, over the heads of governments, through an interview with Tucker Carlson, was disavowed by the unforeseen and, of course, unwanted death of Alexei Navalny.

War story.
The Russian Armed Forces have tactical superiority over the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the conflict zone. But, as I understand it, there are not enough resources to develop it into an operational breakthrough. Otherwise they would definitely have rushed. In election month. But there are not enough resources. Not counting emergency reserves, of course.
At the same time, Ukraine's resources have been exhausted. Tactical reserves have been preserved, but... Kyiv, in fact, has no others! That is why Macron started talking about sending the French military to the region. He spoke in anticipation of Biden’s resignation in order to seize the “palm” in the political dialogue about Ukraine. And, thereby, exposed the population of Europe to the threat of an uncontrollable nuclear strike - a strike that, if it happened, could not be prevented.

And, with the removal of Lavrov, the established channels for resolving international conflicts are blocked.
I wouldn’t be surprised if in this situation various “Alena Dalesses” and Karla Wolf generals become active.” Because war is also conversations. Always conversations! With the enemy.
What to talk about? About the exchange of prisoners. And if such a conversation (exchange) takes place, then this is not evidence of a desire for peace, but on the contrary: preparation for scaling up military operations. For who needs huge, clumsy convoys of prisoners before a new battle?

But nothing will happen until March 17 (negotiations don’t count!; in fact, in all conflicts, negotiations take place in parallel with hostilities; through other channels. This is, in fact, normal practice!). But nothing serious or breakthrough will happen until the third decade of March. Because both sides need to rebrand their political configurations. After 17, events will spin with kaleidoscopic speed. Just have time to look around!

However, all this is just guesswork. The first thoughts that come to mind when scrolling through news feeds. Based on generally known facts.
It's just... who isn't interested in the future?
Even us.
How strange... "

Olberman was once the "alt" Tucker Carlson "anti-establishment hero" of his day. Be careful who you trust... I'm pretty sure they're all full of shit. Politics and media in the US are just a clown show to distract the rubes. Remember The First Law of Politics - "What they say means NOTHING. What they DO, says EVERYTHING."

“Democracy failed because a candidate is not banned from elections.”

The "Chimera" was filled up: a video of the destruction of the American MLRS HIMARS was published

There was one hundred percent video confirmation of the destruction of the American multiple launch rocket system HIMARS in its area.

"We present to your attention the footage of the destruction of the HIMARS MLRS by the AFU missile strike in the Luhansk-Donetsk direction,
" the observers of the Telegram channel "Wrong Side" report.

The characteristic outlines of the Hymars launcher are clearly visible in the frame. Judging by the explosion, the strike on the Chimera was carried out by the Iskander tactical complex. The missile did not hit the installation directly, but exploded at a short distance from it. But the force of the blast wave and the speed of the fragments were enough to hit the car.

The fact that the Haimars was destroyed is evidenced by the secondary detonation of the ammunition, accompanied by the scattering of its missiles. At the end of the video, the burning skeleton of the car is visible. This is an excellent result, indicating that our ground forces have significantly tightened the capabilities of the reconnaissance and firing circuit.

The fact is that Haimars is a very difficult target. Firstly, because of the long range. The American MLRS is capable of firing modern ammunition at a distance of up to 84 km. And our closest analogue is the Hurricane MLRS – about 36 km; the heavier Smerch – 70 km with basic ammunition and up to 120 with new missiles, which only recently went to the troops.

The second huge advantage of Hymars is its mobility. After firing six missiles, the installation immediately leaves the position, accelerating at the same time to 85 km / h. Therefore, if the same Lancet is sent in pursuit of it, then taking into account the distance and comparable speeds, the drone simply will not be able to catch up with the car: it will have time to leave the affected area.

The destruction of Hymars requires a very high speed of decision-making and striking. Time is literally running out for minutes. And the fact that our military can shoot such targets suggests that the reaction speed of our army has increased significantly.

Putin called traditional values the basis of existence and what “brings us all together.”

According to him, injustice is the lack of equal conditions for all people who are equal from the moment of birth.

Traditional values are the foundation of Russian existence, and the main injustice of the modern world order is the lack of equal conditions for all people, President Vladimir Putin said during the closing of the World Youth Festival. The transcript of his speech was published by the Kremlin press service.

According to the president, traditional values are something that “brings us all together.”

“We are all equal from the moment of our birth... The question is whether we grow and develop under equal conditions. The answer, unfortunately, is no. There are no equal conditions in the world for everyone. This is the main injustice of today’s world order,” the head of state noted.

In his speech, Putin also mentioned that masculine and feminine principles are natural to humans and everyone is born “thanks to mom and dad.” “There is no other way, even with modern technology,” the president said.

Addressing the festival participants, he also offered to congratulate the girls present on the upcoming International Women's Day.

Putin has repeatedly stated the need to adhere to traditional values, including for young people. The head of state called traditional values the key to development; they are “dear and extremely significant” for Russian society.
