Japan decided to help countries that did not support the condemnation of Russia
NHK writes that the Ministry of Finance of Japan learned about Tokyo's plans to help countries that did not condemn Russia

TOKYO, November 21 - RIA Novosti. The Ministry of Finance of Japan learned about the decision of the authorities to provide gratuitous assistance to 19 countries that took the opposite stance towards Tokyo's condemnation of Russia, NHK reported. We are talking about official government development assistance (ODA).

"The funds will be allocated <...> to Laos in the amount of 2.9 billion yen ($20 million), Vietnam - 1.7 billion yen ($12 million), Iran - 1.6 billion yen ($11 million) and other countries for a total of 12.8 billion yen (91 million dollars)," the publication says.
The Ministry of Finance believes that these items of expenditure should be reviewed and used "strategically" in order to increase the influence of Japan.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, through whose channels the aid is distributed, objected that non-governmental organizations were among the recipients of these funds. In addition, the allocated money is channelled through international organizations, the Japanese Foreign Ministry said. According to the agency, Tokyo made the decision to help the governments of these states, "based on the diplomatic significance and the development of humanitarian aid."
Japan has become one of the most active countries in the adoption of sanctions against Moscow. The restrictions adopted by Tokyo since the beginning of the events in Ukraine now apply to 903 people from Russia, 280 Russian companies and organizations, 11 banks.

It's called bribery, not help.
Well, everything is as usual with their traditional scheme. An attempt to bribe the government, and if it didn’t work out, then financing their organizations in these countries that conduct propaganda or finance the government’s opposition. This scheme is as old as the world.

The United States has to continue to assist Ukraine in its fight against Russia, but in exchange, "we have to require that Ukraine participates in peace talks," Fred Fleitz, the vice-chair of the America First Policy Institute Center for American Security, commented to Newsmax Sunday.

I don't know what the end game is of this war and how we're going to get out of it," Fleitz added. "I don't want us to be involved in a forever war in Ukraine, where the Russians just decide they're never going to concede and they destroy the country with missiles. We have to have an end-game plan."

Fleitz commented to Mewsmax about President Joe Biden's age and competency, as the president celebrates his 80th birthday Sunday.

"The president is showing his age," he said. "I think we all know that. You know, there's an issue right now about these memos in front of him, documents that seemed to be he's reading before meetings and speeches."

All presidents have prepared remarks, Fleitz said, but he's concerned about whether the president is "just reading these speeches and documents that are given to him by staff, and if that's the case, who's actually president? Who's running the White House?"

Lukashenko: "Something fell on the territory of Poland." But no one asks the elementary question: why did this frenzied rocket, launched by the Ukrainian military to the east, turn around and fly in the opposite direction? After all, they were shooting to the east - Russian missiles are flying from there. Let the professionals answer! There are no such accidents...
The question arises - why are you, Ukrainians, shooting towards the NATO state?
Well, the main question, to which no one answers, but at that moment what were they hitting, at what objects? At that time there were no rockets in the air?
A basic questions. Why exactly during the G20 summit did they suddenly attack the NATO state? It looks like such an agreement to do that. But they miscalculated as people died, and the Poles need to answer to own population. The Polish leadership must answer to the Poles - how could this happen?"

From a Ukrainian channel.

A Ukrainian woman in Lvov who speaks Ukrainian (!) was thrown out of the bus for defending the Donbass and its inhabitants. In addition, she dared to remind others that all the achievements of Lviv itself were at the expense of the USSR, and they are “ungrateful pigs” if they forgot about it.

💬"The Russians built enterprises for you, they gave you apartments. Rebuild Donbass, Lugansk. And your children fled to Europe. And Rus' was and will be." She said.

‘Disposing of these munition like PFM-1 "Petal" cost a lot of money. Ukraine, as always, reported them as destroyed.
But still using them against civilians.’ The sappers who are clearing Donbass from the ‘butterfly-mines’ say that Ukraine has turned the entire region into a minefield. Civilians suffer first of all. The international community is silent as the Kiev regime continues to use explosive devices, which according to all international conventions are prohibited and must be destroyed.

#RussianHistory

During the Narva defeat of the Russian army in 1700, the Swedes got the prisoners Yakov Fedorovich Dolgorukov — Kriegs Commissar General and Privy Councillor.

He fought back to the very end. The Swedes took him prisoner during the withdrawal of the Russian guard, took him to Stockholm. Among other captured Russian generals. They put him in some kind of menagerie, then dragged him to a special prison.

Yakov Fyodorovich behaved defiantly all the time. Yakov Fedorovich was not shy before Europe. For 10 years, the Swedes tolerated his antics. For 10 long years, Yakov Fedorovich personally "studied the foundations of the legal system of the kingdom", mastered the Swedish model.

In 1711, Dolgorukov and forty other Russian prisoners were supposed to be escorted by sea to another place of detention.

Casting an inquisitive eye on the ship, Yakov Fedorovich decided to capture it at sea. Why not grab it?! Well, how long can a Privy Councilor and a General-Kriegs-Commissar toss a heavy oar? He is not a slave in the galleys, really. Had seen Europe, not black.

On Saturday, the rowers were unchained on the occasion of the great religious Russian holiday, about which Yakov Fedorovich told the Swedes. Not everyone was unchained. But Yakov Fedorovich's hands were freed. As soon as Dolgorukov sang the words of the anthem "Dare, dare, God's people!", the prisoners rushed to the guards and the crew.

Yakov Fedorovich himself rushed to cut the crew first. Strangled the captain's mate. Then he chased the skipper with a cleaver. Then he fought with the head of the guard. Threw him into the sea. He dodged a pistol shot and "from his knee he chopped the chief boatswain in the leg, so that the chief boatswain would have bled to death if he had not been drowned."

When he has climbed onto the bridge of the captured ship, Dolgorukov was already an experienced pirate. He grabbed the skipper by the hair, put a dagger to his chest and said significantly: "If you want to be alive, then take us to Kronshlot or Revel, beware of treason, be afraid of me, hope in God, but be more afraid of me."
So they travelled.

They mastered the maritime art from scratch. They began to climb the mast. Look into the distance. The skipper must be controlled, tack the halyards, row, look out.

The sailors turned out to be not so perfect, but it is difficult to expect better from former stolniks, clerks, roundabouts and other duma nobles. The average age of those released was 53 years. And so, with grey beards, bald patches and rags, they went across the sea that had never been seen before.

Home.

Yakov Fedorovich himself, in a selected Swedish cocked hat, stood proudly and adamantly on the bridge. He was then only 70 years old.
He, at one time, almost brought Louis XIV to a stroke. Minister Colbert was shaken by the chest. For some time he worked as a diplomat. He had an idea about the rules.

John Mearsheimer on Putin’s Ambitions After Nine Months of War
The realist political scientist explains why Russia’s move to annex four Ukrainian provinces isn’t imperialism.

It is reported that some former employee of “Yandex Food” created the Turkic battalion in Vilayat Khinzir, and he released the corresponding video.

The unimaginable depth of the kufr, which the shaitan plunged himself into in this video. For example, he says that for him “Islam is sacred”, but immediately after that, he demonstrates a gesture characteristic of the Turkic Nazis. Islam and nationalism, we recall, are incompatible:

“If anyone proudly asserts his descent in the manner of the pre-Islamic people, tell him to bite his father’s male member, and do not use a euphemism”

In addition, this Nazi accuses Sultan al-Putini of “organizing the genocide of the Turkic-speaking people”, thereby recognizing the Ukrainians as Turkics.

This is funny, Subhanallah. Since the Khinzirs themselves deny their connections with the Turkics in every possible way, and, despite the fact that most of the Oksankas are “Chornobrivi” (black-eyebrowed), consider themselves "racially pure Slavs."

The French armored vehicles and the American International MaxxPro have been given to the Armed Forces of Ukraine are already struggling to cope with the autumn mud on the roads.
