Forwarded from Slavic Chthoล„
Ovinnik (ะžะฒะธะฝะฝะธะบ, the Threshing Barn Spirit)

Ovinnik is the spirit of the threshing barn in Slavic folkloreโ€”dangerous, hostile, and destructive. He appears as a huge black cat with burning eyes or a soot-covered old man.

He hates prayer and the sign of the cross. If displeased, he sets the barn on fire, scatters grain, or crushes workers. Those who fall asleep inside are suffocated or have their necks twisted.

He can be appeased once a year (January 10th) with an offering of jelly or roasted chicken, left after midnight while walking backward. Never look behind you.

Ovinnik represents the terrifying power of the harvestโ€”wealth that can feed or burn in an instant.

The Europe Update - European News & Political Analysis
โœ๏ธ Emmanuel Macron has genuinely pleasantly surprised me several times recently with his actions in foreign policy. Domestically, he is struggling, but in foreign policy, he is almost perfect. If he could also maintain neutrality in the NATO-Russia conflictโ€ฆ
Media is too big

โœ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท I wrote yesterday that President Emmanuel Macron has been conducting a surprisingly good foreign policy recently. This consists of several decisions, which I will briefly recall and describe.

1. Official recognition of the State of Palestine at the United Nations General Assembly.

In my opinion, this is the most important decision from the standpoint of justice, morality, sensitivity, and decency. This was Macronโ€™s first geopolitical decision that set the direction France would take. It is a direction opposite to the American imperial project and Israeli Zionist imperialism.
Recognizing Palestine was a slap in the face to the criminal Netanyahu and to Trump.

2. Expanding the French nuclear deterrent program to cover nearly all of Europe. This is a clear sign of Franceโ€™s return to its ambitions as a European empire โ€” something France has been for most of its history.

It is also an obvious attempt to marginalize Germany in Europe, and that is a good thing.

3. Apart from Italy, France is the only EU state that is beginning to suggest the need to restore at least decent relations with Russia. Of course, these are only attempts, because the rest of Europe โ€” perhaps except Italy โ€” will not allow it, but it is a fact worth noting.

4. Emmanuel Macron is waging a personal battle against Donald Trump. He opposes him on almost everything. He was also the leader most engaged in opposing Trumpโ€™s threats against Greenland at the beginning of this year.

5. Franceโ€™s support for Lebanon, and its opposition to the actions of the Zionist state occupying Palestine.

6. Blocking, in the UN Security Council, the US resolution calling for support for America in opening the Strait of Hormuz.

7. Building relations between Europe and Asia in opposition to the United States.

๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ The head of the chancellery of Polish President Karol Nawrocki said that Western countries should send a military mission to support the United States in opening the Strait of Hormuz.

The president and his chancellery have faced a wave of criticism from all sides for expressing support for dragging Poland into a war, backing American aggression, and displaying submissiveness toward Trump.

โœ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ If you call yourself a European nationalist, conservative, or right-winger, and you don't have the courage to admit that โ€” hey โ€” Israel has too much influence over our political movements and political parties in Europe, and you call Israel an ally of the conservative struggle, then you're not a right-winger at all โ€” you're just a liberal who's been brainwashed by the media.

Supporting Israel on the right is nothing other than the redistribution of cruelty. Someone hates migrants so much that they rejoice when Israel commits genocide against the Arab population in Palestine, but at the same time they're afraid of even the suggestion that they might be antisemitic โ€” because that would mean losing their place in the mainstream and the respect of the liberal media.

Such decisions do not help achieve a swift resolution of the situation around Ukraine but only draw out hostilities

We view this step, clearly taken with the support of official authorities, as openly hostile and detrimental to our country's security interests, including the protection of civilians
