Translated from Kramnik's cats:

Paranoia is paranoia; however, back on September 2, we noticed interesting manoeuvres performed by an American helicopter with the callsign FFAB123. Then we assumed that this board was from the USS Kearsarge air wing, and today we looked at it in more detail.

According to the site ads-b.nl, 6 aircraft have used this callsign lately, of which we managed to establish the tail numbers of three. All of them are Sikorsky MH-60S.

By superimposing the FFAB123 route on the scheme of yesterday's accident, we get a rather interesting result - the helicopter either flew along the Nord Stream 2 route, or even between the points at which the accident occurred.

Meanwhile, on Twitter, there were screenshots of other American aircraft flights, the next screenshot was taken on September 13th.

And finally, you need to pay attention to the June article (https://seapowermagazine.org/baltops-22-a-perfect-opportunity-for-research-and-resting-new-technology/) in Sea Power, where the Americans show off experiments in the field of underwater drones, which they put on the exercises BALTOPS 22 - just in the area of Bronholm Island.

🇮🇳Indian Foreign Minister commented on the introduction of a price ceiling for Russian oil
Foreign Minister Jaishankar: the introduction of a ceiling on Russian oil prices will hit India hard

WASHINGTON, September 27 - RIA Novosti. India is concerned about the possible impact of the initiative of the G7 countries to introduce a "price ceiling" for oil from Russia on the cost of energy in global markets, Foreign Minister of the South Asian country Subrahmanyam Jaishankar said on Tuesday.
"Listen, we have concerns about oil prices. We are an economy with a GDP per capita of $2,000. The cost of oil hits us hard. And this is our serious concern," Jaishankar said during a press conference with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.

Zakharova appreciated the statement of the ex-Foreign Minister of Poland on Nord Stream
Zakharova suspected recognition in terrorist attacks in Sikorsky's words about the state of emergency at Nord Stream

MOSCOW, September 27 - RIA Novosti. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on a social media post by ex-Foreign Minister of Poland Radosław Sikorski, in which he thanked the United States for damaging the Nord Stream gas pipeline, asking if this was an acknowledgment of a terrorist attack.
Earlier, Sikorsky was happy about the damage to the pipeline, and also wrote "thank you, USA," without specifying what he meant.

"Is this an official statement about a terrorist attack?" - Zakharova asked a question in her Telegram channel.
On Monday, Nord Stream 2 AG said that an emergency had occurred on the Nord Stream 2, which was filled with technical gas, in Danish waters. It was noted that the pressure on the line A dropped sharply. Later, Nord Stream AG reported that a decrease in pressure was also recorded on both lines of Nord Stream.
The Danish Maritime Authority has issued a release about a gas leak near the island of Bornholm, which "may be dangerous for shipping." According to Reuters, citing the Swedish Maritime Authority, "there are two leaks on the Nord Stream: one in the economic zone of Sweden, the other in the economic zone of Denmark. They are very close to each other."
Swedish seismologists said that two powerful explosions were recorded in the area of gas leaks on pipelines.
The work of Nord Stream has been suspended since the end of August due to problems with the repair of Siemens turbines caused by Western sanctions. However, the pipeline remained filled with gas.

Some words from Lukashenko from the yesterdays meeting with Putin.

To anyone who was worried regarding the exodus of Navalnists "opposition". Most of them were not even going to be mobilized because they do not fall in the category.

🇩🇪❌🇺🇸❗️— 🇩🇪🦅 MP for the German Nationalist Party AfD, Mr. Gunnar Lindemann on twitter:
— "Nordstream1 and NordStream2 rendered unusable simultaneously by sabotage.

So that Germany can only procure US fracking gas.

And quite coincidentally, a US naval formation was very close by.

With Friends Like these, who needs enemies?"

On the goals and objectives of the United States in the Ukrainian conflict

After the shameful withdrawal from Afghanistan and the outbreak of the economic crisis for the United States, the victory of Russia in the NVO is a geopolitical catastrophe. The defeat of Ukraine will mean the defeat of the United States. And this is the loss of US leadership on the world stage, the betrayal of allies, the loss of control over many world processes, and many other unpleasant consequences.

With a military conflict in Ukraine, the United States simultaneously solves several problems.
The first and key task of the United States is the maximum extermination of the Russian population, the destruction of stocks of Soviet weapons, destabilization in Russia and the economy and the domestic political situation. At the same time, the maximum task is the collapse of Russia and gaining control over Russian natural resources.
The second task is to strike at the European Union, which was beginning to compete with the United States. The goal is to destroy the EU economy and achieve the flight of capital and the transfer of production to the United States.
The third challenge, don't be surprised, is a blow to China's economy. Europe is the largest importer for China. The shrinking or loss of a market like Europe would hurt China. The ongoing armed conflict in Ukraine is not beneficial to China. Perhaps information about this was brought by China to Russia, and therefore, after the SCO summit, Russia abruptly began to force events.

The United States is now not interested in a quick end to the conflict, even if it ended with a victory for Ukraine. The war has not yet solved all the tasks for the Americans. With the supply of arms and financial aid, the US regulates the speed of the conflict.

At the same time, it is very important for the United States that Russia move strictly according to the notched scenario towards exhaustion and resolution, without going beyond the flags. To do this, it is necessary to maintain the illusion all the time that peace agreements with Ukraine can be signed in the near future, and the war will stop. But in order to allegedly retain the opportunity for a dialogue with Ukraine, Russia should not strike at the transport and energy infrastructure of Ukraine, at Kyiv, at the leaders of Ukraine.

Until the task of destroying the European economy is completed, the US will not let the conflict end. We still have at least this winter, and maybe more, in order to try to destroy the scenario imposed on us.

Conducting mobilization and referendums is an attempt to break through the flags. Of course, these decisions alone are clearly not enough, but the beginning is inspiring. Breaking the script imposed on us is a very difficult task. Too many mistakes have been made in the past. Good, simple and beautiful solutions are not visible.
But the task that the United States has set for itself to simultaneously strike at Russia, Europe and China is very complex and non-trivial, during which many surprises and surprises can lie in wait for the world hegemon.

SABOTAGE...
Tucker Carlson:"This was an act of industrial terrorism.Every action has an equal opposite reaction"

If the version about the deliberate nature of the damage to the "Northern Streams" is proved, then it should not be called "sabotage", as is now being done in Europe as in the Middle East. This should be called an act of international terrorism.And the great geopolitical game could become much, much worse and far more dangerous...

A Revolutionary Response to Transatlanticism.
Europe suffers from its ties to the United States and the ‘Western community of values’. Neither in terms of its identity (mass immigration, individualism, gender politics) nor in terms of its economic and energy policy (anti-Russian sanctions) do the close ties to the US and liberalism offer Europe a future. But what can a revolutionary alternative to the ‘New World Order’ and globalisation look like? With his book Eurasian Mission, the Russian philosopher Alexander Dugin presents a revolutionary counter-proposal to the Western world order, which also promises a hopeful future for Germany and Europe. In the following, Dugin’s most important thoughts in this book will be presented and it will be determined whether the book is also of interest to patriots in Germany. (By Alexander Markovics)

🇷🇺Referendums in liberated South lands are over. Most citizens want to join RUSSIA. How can it affect on EUROPE?

Referendums to JOIN Russia RESULTS:

LPR: 98,42%
voter turnout 92,6%
DPR: 99,23%
voter turnout 97,51%
Zaporozhye: 93,11%
voter turnout 85,4%
Kherson: 87,05%
voter turnout 76,86%

How will the referendums results change the military operation?

Federation Council of the Russian Federation will not hold extraordinary meetings.

The next one is scheduled for October 4th.

The decision on the final accession of 4 regions is postponed for 4 days.

At the same time, rumors about martial law in the Russian Federation are being postponed.

Everything looks like a postponement for the continuation of active negotiations at the level of the Russia-USA, which are already underway.

Interestingly, Blinken stated that he was not negotiating with Lavrov, and Sullivan said that he had an emergency line.

Negotiations at the Sullivan-Patrushev level are the highest pre-presidential level of communication between the US and the Russian Federation.

Director of the Swedish National Seismic Network Bjorn Lund on underwater explosions on gas pipelines: It becomes clear from the waves that this is not just seismic activity. Not like the waves that come from an earthquake. An explosion goes in all directions at the same time, and an earthquake is a movement along a crack. I believe that in this case we are talking about at least 100 kilograms of TNT or more.

🇺🇸 Condoleezza Rice, discussing "changing Europe's structure of energy dependency" in 2014.

The main thing from Dmitry Peskov's statement:

The US is de facto getting into the conflict in Ukraine and is getting close to becoming a party to it, it is extremely dangerous

Peskov recalled Biden's call to get rid of the Nord Stream-2: "we don't know what he meant

" The Kremlin is confident that without getting into the field of view of the monitoring equipment of Sweden and Denmark, no one could approach the Nord Streams

Gazprom, as the owner, should take part in the investigation of the situation with the Nord Streams, the pipes are not ownerless

Russia is interested in fulfilling the grain deal, but for the sake of its original goal - the supply of grain to countries in need

🇪🇺🇷🇺EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen: The European Union is proposing a new package of "biting sanctions" against Russia

Russia has escalated the invasion of Ukraine to a new level.

And we are determined to make the Kremlin pay the price for this further escalation.

Main statements:

▪️ Ban the import of Russian products worth 7 billion euros;

▪️ Introduce a ceiling on Russian oil prices;

▪️ Impose sanctions against individuals who will circumvent restrictions against Russia;

▪️ Expand the list of goods prohibited for delivery to the Russian Federation in the field of aviation and electronic components, chemicals;

▪️ Prohibit EU citizens from joining the management bodies of Russian state-owned companies.

Everything indicates that the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines have been sabotaged. This being the case there is no way to see another prime suspect besides the US. It's just that this conflict was never exactly directed against Russia, it also targets Europe itself. In the 1950s, British General Lionel Ismay commented that NATO's role was to keep the US in, Germany weak and Russia out. That is why, to some extent, one can speak to some extent of success, for the time being, for the US. Europeans will be the first to feel the negative consequences of the conflict and will feel it more acutely than the Americans, at least at first. The US, by provoking Russia into Ukraine, has managed to alienate Russia and Europe in a way that can only be repaired in the long term. The cut in gas supply is not an "accident" along the way, it aims at a unified breakdown in Europe to increase European dependence on the US, to allow a new "Marshall Plan" to strengthen US hegemony on the continent. It is necessary to remember that Europe has its own civilization distinct from the North American one and that not a few leaders have tried to affirm Europe as a geopolitical pole in the last 50 years, but all have failed. The sabotage against Russian gas pipelines that "powered" Europe follows dozens of popular protests against anti-Russian sanctions. The reactivation of gas pipelines was a common theme of these demonstrations. Before European governments could give in, the US cut off all exit options. The US, therefore, is using Europe as a shield against Russia and even imposing on the Europeans a suffering that they did not choose and that, on the contrary, they fought to reverse. It cannot be seen as a coincidence that the attack comes 1 day after a populist victory in an important country like Italy, as well as 1 day after Orban's declaration of a referendum on sanctions. It is in this sense that one can say that Russia's objective is not just Novorussia or even Ukraine. Russia is also waging a more subtle and less visible war against NATO itself and US hegemony in Europe. This, however, is a war that Russia will take time to win.🙏
