UN General Assembly Committee approves Russia's resolution to combat the glorification of Nazism
The Third Committee of the UN General Assembly approved the resolution of Russia on combating the glorification of Nazism

UN, November 4 - RIA Novosti. The third committee of the UN General Assembly adopted the Russian draft resolution on combating the glorification of Nazism, 51 countries voted against, RIA Novosti correspondent reports.
106 countries voted for the document entitled "Combating the glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to the escalation of modern forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance," 106 countries voted, 15 abstained. 51 countries voted against.*

This resolution is adopted by the UN General Assembly annually. She must approve the project after it is supported by the third committee. The vote on this issue will take place later, usually in December.
The resolution recommends that countries take appropriate concrete measures, "including in the field of legislation and education, in accordance with their international obligations in the field of human rights, in order to prevent the revision of the history and results of the Second World War and the denial of crimes against humanity and war crimes committed during the Second World War".
The authors of the document condemn incidents related to the glorification and propaganda of Nazism, in particular, the application of pro-Nazi graffiti and drawings, including on monuments to victims of World War II.
The resolution urges states to eliminate all forms of racial discrimination by all appropriate means, including, if circumstances so require, by legislation.
In addition, the document condemns the use of educational materials, as well as rhetoric during training, that promote racism, discrimination, hatred and violence based on ethnic origin, nationality, religion or belief.

The Pentagon announced a new package of military assistance to Ukraine
Pentagon spokesman Singh: new US aid package to Ukraine includes 45 T-72 tanks

WASHINGTON, November 4 - RIA Novosti. The United States will provide Ukraine with 45 T-72 tanks as part of another $400 million military aid package, Pentagon spokeswoman Sabrina Singh said.
"Part of the tanks will be handed over to Ukraine by the end of December... Deliveries are expected to be completed in 2023," she said.

The new American aid also includes:
— 250 armoured personnel carriers M1117;
— 40 armoured boats of the river class;
— 1.1 thousand Phoenix Ghost reconnaissance and strike drones;
— Upgraded air defence systems Hawk.
Soviet-made tanks will be modernized by the United States and handed over to Ukrainian troops together with the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. According to Singh, this will be the first time that Washington has to pay for tanks supplied to Kyiv.

She noted that the transfer of modern Western-made tanks to Ukrainians is costly in terms of finances and time.
“We will continue to consult with our allies and partners on what we can distinguish from Western armoured platforms, but we believe that these tanks can also play a role,” Singh said.

Putin congratulated the Russians and made a number of important statements on Ukraine
04.11.2022 - 17:04

Putin congratulated all Russians on the Day of National Unity, noting the unity and general cordial devotion to Russia, and also made several landmark statements on the situation in Ukraine.

Main points from his speech:

The history of Russia is continuous, it must be considered with all the complex and contradictory periods.

In the West, a lot is determined by the liberal conjuncture, for the sake of it, many historical events are presented upside down, and the truth is cancelled.

The West is trying to "knock the ground out from under Russia's feet" by distorting its history, but these attempts are doomed to failure.

Domestic history and culture are the basis of Russian statehood and sovereignty, which causes irritation in the West.

The Ukrainian people are the main victim of the deliberate sublimation of hatred towards the Russians.

Russia treated and treats the Ukrainian people with warmth, despite today's confrontation.

The clash between the Russian Federation and the neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine was inevitable.

The conflict in Ukraine is, in fact, a confrontation within one nation.

The West keeps trying to break up Russia, but it will never allow it.

The West introduced pseudo-values ​​in Ukraine, reshaped the minds of millions of people, tried to "bring a wick" to the collapse of Russia.

Restoration of housing in the Donbass should go first of all, residents need to be helped to survive the winter.

European capitals were the centres of the universe. But that is already in the past.

“Now, of course, those who live in Kherson must be removed from the zone of the most dangerous actions, because the civilian population should not suffer from shelling, from any offensive, counter-offensive, and other measures related to military operations,” the president stressed.

“Guys like you are doing everything to take people to a safe zone. This is very correct!” Putin said.

Russia Envoy Sees 'Inconvenient Truth' Behind Bio Labs U.S. Says Save Lives
by Tom O'Connor for The Newsweek

Russia's envoy to the U.S. has demanded answers from Washington over Pentagon-funded biological research facilitates located in Ukraine and other countries, claiming the sites did not live up to international commitments.

The inquiry came despite repeated denials by President Joe Biden's administration that the U.S. was behind any nefarious activities in laboratories that officials say reduce the threat of biological harm to the population, rather than instigate it.

But days after Russia brought the issue to the United Nations (U.N.) to no avail, Moscow's ambassador in Washington, Anatoly Antonov, told Newsweek that "the risks posed by biological agents, including their falling into the wrong hands or a laboratory leakage, are on a par with nuclear and chemical proliferation.

"Rapid scientific and technological progress increases the danger inherent in dual use research," Antonov said. "Sensitive information on experiments aimed at creation of hybrid, more dangerous strains may well be a target of cyberattacks. Not to mention the fact that no one is immune from a human error or inadvertent release of particularly contagious pathogens into the environment."

Though the U.S. National Biodefense Strategy published last month outlined the need for protective measures from such threats as "top priority," Antonov argued that "Washington continues to implement extremely risky biological projects abroad, contradicting its own principles.

"There are currently more than 50 Pentagon-supervised laboratories in close proximity to the Russian borders," Antonov stated. "According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the network controlled by the U.S. Department of Defence includes at least 336 such facilities around the world."

Research at these sites, Antonov alleged, has "led to deterioration of epidemiological situation in the countries receiving American 'aid'" and "their work is carried out under conditions of utmost secrecy."

Specifically, he called out such activities being conducted in Ukraine with the support of the U.S. military's Defence Threat Reduction Agency, an initiative he referred to as "a glaring case of biosafety neglect" that runs contrary to the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC), also known as the Biological Weapons and Toxins Convention (BWTC).

"Washington and Kiev do not disclose their dubious projects—implemented since 2016 under the code names of UP-4, Flu-Flyaway, P-781—even in the annual reports under the BTWC," Antonov argued. "Such behaviour can only point to the fact that the United States and Ukraine have something to hide."

The BWC entered into force in 1975 and some 184 states have signed the treaty as of this February, when Russia launched a war against neighbouring Ukraine. The accord effectively bans the development, stockpiling and use of biological weapons and toxin agents and Kyiv, Moscow and Washington have all ratified the agreement.

But Washington has faced accusations from Moscow of pursuing non-transparent work at research facilities across Ukraine since the earliest days of the conflict. The allegations began to gain traction as an information war between Russia and Ukraine intensified alongside the real-life battle ensuing between the two states, prompting U.S. officials to address the existence of "Ukrainian diagnostic and biodefense laboratories," which, as one State Department spokesperson told Newsweek in March, "are not biological weapons facilities."

"These institutions counter biological threats throughout the country," the spokesperson said at the time.

Continuation from above ⬆️⬆️⬆️
While U.S. officials have defended Washington and Kyiv's record with the BWC, they have accused Moscow of violating the treaty through alleged poisoning attempts against dissidents, including opposition figure Alexey Navalny on a Russian flight in 2020 and Russian ex-double agent Sergei Skripal along with his daughter Yulia in the U.K. in 2018. That same year, Russian officials issued claims that Washington was behind a secret biological weapons program in Georgia, which, like Ukraine, is an ex-Soviet republic with a history of conflict with Russia and Moscow-aligned separatists along the border.

Reached for comment on the latest claims issued by Antonov, a State Department spokesperson referred Newsweek to U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield's remarks made Thursday during a U.N. Security Council session at which she voted against Russia's resolution to investigate the allegations.

"The United States voted against this resolution because it is based on disinformation, dishonesty, bad faith, and a total lack of respect for this body," Thomas-Greenfield said. "The Biological Weapons Convention is important. It addresses the grave threat posed by biological weapons.

"The United States takes its responsibility seriously, and fully complies with and fulfils its obligations under the BWC," she added. "That includes assisting partners around the world to strengthen global health security and reduce the impact of infectious diseases on their societies."

She argued that Russia had "failed to provide any credible evidence to support these false allegations" and, "despite Russia's abuse of the process, and precisely because we respect the BWC and its provisions, the United States and Ukraine went through Russia's allegations in Geneva, point by point, and debunked every single one" during a previous U.N. session on the issue in Geneva in September.

"Russia knows our Cooperative Threat Reduction efforts are not for military purposes. We know Russia knows this, because for nearly two decades, Russia participated in this very kind of cooperation with us, including on biological threats," she added. "The truth is that Russia's questions are not sincere, and Russia is not interested in our answers."

Antonov said Moscow remained unconvinced by the U.S. and Ukrainian arguments and he accused Western nations of deflecting the Russian line of questioning.

"The collective West has followed the beaten track of accusing Russia of misinformation and distracting the international community from discussing more important issues," Antonov said. "The logic of such a nervous reaction of the U.S. colleagues is clear: In the absence of reliable counterarguments, it is easier to distort mirror images, especially when you know that obedient allies will not let you down."

To borrow a phrase made famous made by the 2006 documentary written by former Vice President Al Gore that raised awareness about the effects of climate change, Antonov warned there was "an inconvenient truth" for the U.S. "behind pretentious rhetoric."

"If the main goals of the Cooperative Threat Reduction Program in the post-Soviet space were achieved in 2008, what biological threats in the immediate vicinity of the Russian borders has the DTRA been 'fighting' against for the last 14 years?" Antonov asked.

Other questions Antonov had for U.S. officials included, "Why has the U.S. transferred from Ukraine at least 16 thousand biosamples, including human tissue and serum? What is the real reason behind the emergent destruction of pathogen collections stored in these facilities (in accordance with the decree of the Ukrainian Ministry of Health of February 24, 2022)?"

Continuation from above ⬆️⬆️⬆️
And, "most importantly," he asked, "if as the U.S. insists it is all about peaceful activity aiming at bolstering Ukraine's healthcare system, why is the Pentagon involved?" A fact sheet issued by the Pentagon in March said that the Biological Threat Reduction Program "has partnered with the Government of Ukraine to support peaceful and safe biological detection and diagnostic capabilities and to reduce the threats posed by pathogens," including through the investment of $200 million for "46 Ukrainian laboratories, health facilities, and diagnostic sites."

On the issue of biological sample destruction, the sheet said that "proper disposal of samples during a war reflects responsible conduct on the part of the Ukrainians to protect the Ukrainian people and the international community from potential accidental exposure due to irresponsible Russian actions."

Here, too, Antonov felt that many nations were failing to assess the situation objectively.

"Some states lost the ability to look at the situation critically a long time ago," Antonov said. "They are not bothered by the fact that in Ukraine the outbreaks of diseases caused by the above-mentioned pathogens have become more frequent.

"Neither do they question the Pentagon's intentions to transfer unfinished programs from Ukraine to third countries," he added. "Among the 'candidates' are Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, and Baltic states."

He accused the "collective West" of being plagued by "an intellectual paralysis" that extended to the U.S. consistently rejecting efforts to negotiate a legally binding verification mechanism to the BWC since 2001.

"We encourage the countries still able to pursue independent foreign policy to do their homework and reflect on the following question: what is the reason of Washington's reluctance to strengthen the Convention?" Antonov asked. "We do not strive to settle political scores with anybody. We act strictly within the BTWC legal framework."

In the lead up to the convention's review conference set to begin November 28, Antonov asserted that "it is high time to think about how to strengthen it, reject narrowly defined national interest, and put the entire mankind's wellbeing and security at the forefront."

Decoupling From China Is a Fools Errand
Washington is becoming more like the bare-knuckle mercantilists in Beijing.

by Geoffrey Aronson
Thirteenth-century Venice, like the high-tech economy of the twenty-first-century United States, faced a challenge that threatened the famed republic’s economic prosperity. The natural advantages enjoyed by Venice’s internationally renowned glass makers, like the leading computer chip makers today, were under threat from foreign competition, the theft of intellectual property, and the departure of skilled artisans lured by the promise of higher pay elsewhere in Europe.

Venice adopted an elegant if brutal solution to this dilemma. On November 8, 1291, the Venetian Great Council ordered the city’s entire glass-making industry—all of its factories and artisans—to relocate to the small island of Murano nearby.

To prevent the export of the city’s technological and manufacturing advantages, glassmakers faced steep fines or imprisonment if they left the environs without permission. Determined to prevent the loss of its monopoly over intellectual property and to maintain its stranglehold on industrial innovation, city fathers ruled that any master caught leaving the city could be sentenced to death.

To compensate for these draconian restrictions, artisans were granted preferred social status, formalized in the island’s “Golden Book.” This new industrial aristocracy was awarded unique privileges. They could carry swords and were immune from prosecution. Their daughters and sons became sought-after partners for the Venetian aristocracy.

The glassmakers of Murano, and Venice’s economy as a whole, reaped the fruits of this mercantilist policy for a long time.

Today, the Biden administration faces a challenge that medieval Venice’s politicians would well recognize—controlling the development and dissemination of computer chips that drive the international economy. Like its Venetian predecessors, the Biden administration aims to protect its monopoly by “decoupling” critical technological capabilities enjoyed by the United States and its allies from those under Chinese control. President Joe Biden, like Venice’s town fathers before him, hopes that the competitive advantages still enjoyed by U.S. and Western (including Taiwanese and South Korean) chipmakers will be protected forever.

It wasn’t meant to be this way.

Since the famed 1972 meeting between Richard Nixon and Mao Zedong, U.S. policymakers have comforted themselves with the expectation that China’s rise would make it more like America—a proponent of free trade, free enterprise, and democratization.

“Decoupling” from China (and for different reasons Russia) and “reshoring” key U.S. industries, reflects the new unexpected spirit of U.S. enterprise that has turned long-held assumptions driving U.S.-China relations on their head.

As far as state intervention in the economy—directing capital to favored industries and companies, and the associated commitment to “pick winners”—Washington is becoming more like the bare-knuckle mercantilists in Beijing.

Biden is the booster in chief for this new look in U.S. policy, as is Chinese president Xi Jinping. At a recent groundbreaking ceremony for a new Intel plant in Ohio, Biden declared:

Folks, we need to make these chips right here in America to bring down everyday costs and create good jobs. (Applause.) Don’t take my word for it. … Listen to the business leaders across this country. They’re making decisions right now about where to invest and produce these chips. China, Japan, South Korea, European Union — all these places are investing tens of billions of dollars to attract chip manufacturers to their countries. But industry leaders are choosing us, the United States, because they see America is back and America is leading the way.

As in thirteenth-century Venice, today in Washington the power of the state is being unsheathed and expanded in what may well be a costly and quixotic effort to force the private sector’s adoption of a political security and economic agenda aimed at preventing the diffusion of knowledge, industry, and innovation to China.

Even among Washington’s Asian allies, not everyone is convinced that Biden’s way is the right way. Singaporean prime minister Lee Hsien Loong, for example, recently voiced his concerns about Washington’s latest moves.

Decoupling is a worry. National security concerns are real. How wide or how narrowly they are defined, is the judgment of each government and administration. I think the Biden administration’s latest move is a serious one. I am sure they have considered it carefully. It can have very wide ramifications. We will have to see how things work out. But we will do worry that valid national security considerations may trigger off further consequences and may result in less economic cooperation, less interdependency, less trust, and possibly, ultimately a less stable world.

It was once a truism to declare that what was good for General Motors was good for America. A system of international commerce created in this image provided a solid foundation for America’s economic and military supremacy for a generation.

Today, this axiom has been turned on its head. The Biden administration now argues that what is good for Washington might not necessarily be good for the likes of Ford, Mercedes, and McDonald’s, which are now shuttering their operations in Russia. Companies once encouraged by Washington’s political class to explore business opportunities in Russia are now bowing to its diktat to abandon their stakes. American and European chip companies are now forced to accommodate the Biden administration’s intent to prevent China from competing with Western and other Asian firms or supplying their industries with the most advanced computer chip technology and personnel.

“The new rules” recently adopted by Washington, noted the Wall Street Journal, “will essentially kneecap fast-rising Chinese memory-chip companies.”

It is now left to China to preach to the world the benefits of “win-win” solutions offered by free trade. Like the famed master artisans of Murano, forced to live and work in a gilded cage, high-tech expatriates now working in China and their parent companies are being forced to “reshore” themselves in the expectation that China’s effort to manufacture chips as wonderful as those produced by the United States and its allies will be short-circuited.

In this regard, Murano’s experience may be instructive. Despite its efforts, the glass industry in Murano was unable to stem the diffusion of intellectual capital and skilled personnel to competitors in Europe. Today, the glass-making industry on the famed island is a shadow of its former self. Its galleries are losing the competitive battle against glass made in China, which is equal in quality and cheaper in price. To survive, the once proud galleries are selling Chinese knockoffs as their own.

What are we fighting for? — Dmitry Medvedev put everything on the shelves
04.11.2022 - 09:45

Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev congratulated the Russians on National Unity Day with an original text that looks more like a sermon or a keynote speech.

“Why is our cause right? Answers to simple questions on National Unity Day,” Medvedev called his congratulations and gave quite exhaustive answers to questions that actually worry many, especially after September 21.

I would like to pay special attention to the fragment about “some frightened partners” - which of the CSTO members recognizes himself in this passage?

“What are we fighting for?

Russia is a huge and rich country. We do not need foreign territories, we have everything in abundance. But there is our land, which is sacred to us, on which our ancestors lived and on which our people live today. And which we will not give to anyone. We protect our people. We are fighting for all our people, for our land, for our thousand-year history.

Who is fighting against us?

We are fighting against those who hate us, who ban our language, our values ​​and even our faith, who spread hatred towards the history of our Fatherland.

Against us today is part of a dying world. This is a bunch of crazy Nazi drug addicts, people drugged and intimidated by them, and a large pack of barking dogs from the western kennel. With them is a motley pack of grunting gilts and narrow-minded inhabitants from the collapsed Western empire with saliva flowing down their chins from degeneration. They have no faith and ideals, except for obscene habits invented by them and standards of doublethink implanted by them, denying the morality bestowed on normal people. Therefore, having risen against them, we have acquired sacred power.

Where are our old friends?

We were abandoned by some frightened partners - and spit on them. So, they were not our friends, but just random fellow travelers, sticky and hangers-on. Cowardly traitors and greedy defectors fell to distant lands - let their bones rot in a foreign land. They are not among us, but we have become stronger and cleaner.

Why were we silent for a long time?

We were weak and devastated by timelessness. And now we have shaken off the sticky dream and the dreary haze of the last decades, into which the death of the former Fatherland plunged us. Other countries awaited our awakening, raped by the masters of darkness, slave owners and oppressors who dream of their monstrous colonial past and yearn to maintain their power over the world. Many countries do not believe their nonsense for a long time, but are still afraid of them. Soon they will wake up completely. And when the rotten world order collapses, it will bury all its arrogant priests, bloodthirsty adepts, mocking servants and dumb mankurts (not remembering their past and origin) under a multi-ton pile of its debris.

What is our weapon?

Weapons are different. We have the opportunity to send all enemies to the fiery Gehenna, but this is not our task. We listen to the words of the Creator in our hearts and obey them. These words give us a sacred purpose. The goal is to stop the supreme ruler of hell, no matter what name he uses: Satan, Lucifer or Iblis. For his goal is death. Our goal is life.

His weapon is an intricate lie.
And our weapons are Truth.

That is why our cause is right.
That is why victory will be ours!
Happy Holidays!

A subscriber has asked me to talk about American affairs, and if I should be glad that a conflict with the US will soon happen.

I will be honest, I am scared, anyone will be, but the thing is to push through it even when you're scared, the American terrifies me, not only will he not fight in his own land unless some miracle happen, he will first convince his people that he's in the right, then he will convince the industrial and technological North that he is in the right, he will enact various pyschological operations against my country, to make us unsure of ourselves, fearful and be coerced, if that doesn't work, he will come to my shores, I can never really hurt the American, the American is a sea and an ocean away, I can't bomb his electrical grid, I can't bomb his factories, I can't bomb his war efforts, meanwhile he can do all of this on my own land, and as an add on he will also bomb my people and make their lives hell, then even if we collapse, he'll just keep kicking our corpse till it's mush, and then he'll go back and rewrite the history books that he was in the right and I had to go.

God told me not to be afraid of death, as Martyrdom is one of the highest honors that can be attained, and as long as we stood, that's alright, but what gets me the most, deep down, is that I am sure my death and the death of millions of my people will be considered materially insignificant, and just a footnote, and that overall, the crimes committed upon our sake will only get a two minute slide on their news, before they flash over to Kim Kardashian's sex tape.

What really gets me is that their kids, and their kids, will grow up believing that my death was justifiable, wether it's for naive reasons, the sake of Western supremacy, or just "we are right and they are wrong, no matter what" and that I'm the real villain because I killed 5 thousand, 10 thousand, or, may God bless us, 50 thousand Americans, in self defense, but I know the truth will come out one way the other, they couldn't hide the lies of Vietnam, Afghanistan, or Iraq for long.
