Civilians began to leave the territory of the blocked Azot plant in Severodonetsk, said on Saturday, June 11, Ambassador of the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) to the Russian Federation Rodion Miroshnik.


Armed Forces of Ukraine demand to release them from the Azot plant with hostages. However, following the negotiations:
“Civilians began to leave Azot. Civilians began to leave through the second checkpoint of the Azot chemical association. This checkpoint is not controlled by militants. They are met and taken to a safe place by soldiers of the allied forces,” he wrote in his Telegram channel.

It is noted that some of the buildings in the area of ​​the first entrance of the enterprise are still under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (APU). There are occasional shootings on the spot.

Also inside, presumably, several hundred more civilians may be held hostage. According to Miroshnik, people will be evacuated as soon as the employees of the Russian Federation and the LNR limit the resistance of the militants.

Earlier that day, it was reported that Ukrainian militants blocked at the Azot chemical plant in Severodonetsk demanded to be released along with the hostages. There are about 300 nationalists on the territory of the plant. At the same time, they can hold more than 1,000 civilians hostage in the bomb shelters under Azot.

At the same time, the LPR ambassador to the Russian Federation, Rodion Miroshnik, said that up to 500 civilians could be on the territory of Azot, who were hiding from shelling in the plant’s bomb shelter.

According to the diplomat, the militants put forward demands - to give them the opportunity to leave the territory of the chemical plant together with the hostages and to provide a corridor for crossing to Lisichansk. Such demands are unacceptable and will not be discussed, Miroshnik explained.

On the same day, the head of the LPR, Leonid Pasechnik, explained that the main task at Azot in Severodonetsk is to clean up the industrial zone on the territory of the chemical plant in such a way as not to cause an environmental disaster.

On June 11, military historian Nikita Buranov admitted that the blockade of Ukrainian nationalists at the Azot chemical plant in Severodonetsk could turn into a long siege. However, he stressed that its outcome is predetermined.

Happy Russia Day everyone. We should be call it "Happy Freedom Day" as we are all counting on Russia to bring down the liberal dictatorships of the rotten West.

The picture shows the hats of the enemies of the Russian state who were defeated in different centuries: the helmet of the Livonian knights defeated by Alexander Nevsky, the headdress of the Polish interventionists expelled from Moscow by the militia of Minin and Pozharsky, Napoleon's hat and Wehrmacht helmet. In the last, fifth place is an empty square.

Russia and China’s War on the Dollar Is Just Beginning.
If the United States wants to remain at the helm of the rules-based international order, it will need to address the serious efforts underway to undermine its global financial hegemony.

The burden that the West will have to shoulder in accepting Putin’s system [of payments in Rubles] will become increasingly painful. If the Ruble continues to appreciate over the next few months, Western countries will have to spend more to convert their currencies to Rubles to pay for their indispensable energy imports. Not only does this raise the global demand for Rubles, but it also demonstrates to other governments that the Russian currency is capable of resisting punishment from major Western countries.

At the end of April, Gazprom stopped deliveries of fuel to Bulgaria and Poland due to non-payment. At the same time, the company warned of a reduction in transit to other countries if Sofia and Warsaw begin illegal fuel sampling. Since May 21, deliveries to Finland have stopped.

As Bloomberg reported, the European Commission issued clarifications on the new system of payment for Russian gas, but never explicitly indicated whether opening a Ruble account contradicts the sanctions.

Rybar:

"After digging a bit in Ukrainian documents about 155mm CAESAR self-propelled artillery mounts we found something extremely interesting: they use 155mm OGR F1 shell. The OGR F1 is a 155 mm cluster munition. The concept of this type of weapon involves breaking the main warhead in the air with the release of dozens of smaller submunitions capable of covering a wide area. In the case of OGR, the bomb breaks into 63 small elements. Due to the extremely high likelihood of harming civilians, cluster shells were banned as a result of the UN convention in Oslo, developed and approved by 46 states, including France, in 2010. The National Commission for the Destruction of Anti-Personnel Mines (CNEMA), operating under the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, successfully reported in 2016 the elimination of all M26 and OGR F1 ammunition. Thanks to the leaky information security system in Ukraine, it is perfectly clear that France not only did not destroy the prohibited type of weapons, but also handed it over to Ukrainian servicemen. And those, in turn, “successfully” use them against the civilian population of Donbass. Well, the icing on the cake: the Armed Forces of Ukraine uses versions of shells with a remote fuse designed to increase the area of ​​destruction of manpower. That is, the Ukrainian armed formations deliberately seek to kill as many civilians in the city as possible."

Paris! City of love and fresh croissants. In fact, this video shows the essence of modern Europe well. Mouse fuss in the garbage heap behind a beautiful facade.
MOSCOW, June 12 - RIA Novosti. The first 15 restaurants of the former McDonald's chain have reopened in Moscow and the Moscow region under the new name "Vkusno i Tochka" (Tasty and Point) 🧐🤷‍♂️, a RIA Novosti correspondent reports.
“I am pleased to present our new name — Tasty and Point,” said Oleg Paroev, General Director of the company in Russia.
According to him, another 50 restaurants will open in Russia tomorrow, and about 200 by the end of June.
But for now, not all menus will be available to visitors of Tasty and Point. Paroev explained this by logistical difficulties, as well as by the fact that restaurants are opening in record time.

McDonalds has returned to Russia after rebranding. I am not sure, is it a good or bad news?

The West invented megaphone recruitment

In Washington, the ways of interaction with the Russian embassy have been enriched. The head of the diplomatic mission, Anatoly Antonov, said: "I recently received a letter in the mail urging me to renounce my homeland and condemn the actions of the Russian president. If I do this, they suggested that I contact the office of First Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman." To this, he added that for some time now, on the approaches to the embassy, activists of unknown origin have been handing out to diplomats "cards supposedly with FBI contacts and offering to talk with intelligence officers." The American media also published articles calling on Russian diplomats to betray their homeland and choose freedom.
Theoretically, this could be an independent activity of American civil society, and the State Department, the FBI and the CIA have nothing to do with it. According to Antonov, the embassy demanded in writing from the State Department an explanation of what this means, but there is no answer yet.

But even if, by way of delirium, we assume that the Russian ambassador decides to use the prisoner pass sent to him and, appearing before First Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman, announces: “I chose freedom!”, then what will his interlocutor do? Deeply unclear. Either she joyfully exclaims: “Our brother Anatoly, you will rejoice with us!”, Or she decides that the Russian ambassador has been very tired at work.
However, although there is no direct evidence of the involvement of the State Department in this interesting undertaking, there are some indirect convergences. The Prague precedent of April 2 of this year is not inferior to the current Washington one in terms of the degree of idiocy. Then the Czech Foreign Ministry, on behalf of the working team, that is, the head of the Foreign Ministry was, as it were, on the sidelines, addressed the personal of the Russian embassy, urging "Russian colleagues not to serve the criminal Putin regime and to leave the circle of accomplices." Employees of the Czech Foreign Ministry recalled that the embassy staff have "something important in common with them: we all serve our governments and our peoples as civil servants and diplomats." Therefore, those who "have retained their conscience and are able to recognize evil" must disarm before democracy and break with Moscow. The Moravian brothers, however, were answered: "Thanks to the Czech Republic for the generous offer, but we will refuse. We have enough conscience, and we are able to recognize the American lap dog when we see it."

We are publishing an updated list of the English language channels that are not allegedly “unbiased” but are passionate about what they are writing. Only few of them are official, while the majority is run by volunteers. They are all different, each one has its own speciality, so you may choose, what better fits you. We ourselves can not cover the whole amount of information, but are just bringing our very small contribution.
For us, there is no business, just being very personal.

Для ваших англоговорящих товарищей - среди них есть много хороших, но неправильно информированных людей.

We also believe, that it would be appropriate, if other channels would post similar lists of their choices (if they are not pursuing commercial goals, of course) to give subscribers more options.
Please share it with all curious and thinking people.

The Ukrainian ambassador in Germany reported that "Gepard" antiaircraft guns from Germany will arrive in Ukraine on the 22nd of June. Russians will understand the bitter irony. 22nd of June 1941 Germany attacked Soviet Union and was bombing Kiev. Is it a coincidence or a continuation of a centuries old "Drang nach Osten"?
