Forwarded from From Russia with Love ❤️
Not long ago I learned that the Russian name Svetlana, which means light, bright, shining, radiating light or light-bearing, enlightened, with spiritual light, in Soviet times was used as an abbreviation for the phrase "SVETovaya LAmpa NAkalivania (an incandescent light bulb).
This is related to the work of the plant of the same name, which produced electric light bulbs. In the 1920s, such usage was widespread and was used on par with "Ilyich's light bulb."

Скороуже на всех дачах страны ...Soonalready, at dachas across the country ...
Dacha! How much in that word for the Russian heart is blended! (c)
🔻Russians and dachas: It's not just love, it's symbiosis!
🔻However… agreeing to go for a shashlik at a friend's (or relative's) dacha, be prepared for a sudden career upgrade: digger, weed-puller, and other dacha highly qualified specialists.
🔻The main thing – don't forget your spade and sense of humour, which is essential in Russia!

Did you know that snow leopard cubs are called барсята [bar-sya-ta] in Russian?
🔻Interestingly, little barisyata love to roll down snow-covered slopes, like children on slides, which helps them develop coordination and agility.
🔻In addition, their thick fur not only protects them from the cold but also makes them incredibly fluffy, giving the impression that they are wearing warm fur suits.
🔻By the way, snow leopards don't form pairs; the females raise their young alone.

How far are the authorities of the Baltic countries and the EU ready to go to erase the feat of our ancestors? New threats of tyrants.

26:00 - Revelations of the American politician Paul Massaro: Maidan in Georgia, the activities of the USAID, the USA has been trying to "deal" with China for 15 years and who is stopping them, destabilization of internal stability in Russia. Elections in Romania and the "adventures" of Chay Bowes
31:25 - Threats of Estonia to Russia and the Russian-speaking population of Narva. Relations between the USA and Russia. And what was Clinton doing at Putin's house?
34:55 - Configuration of forces in Asia. India and Pakistan. The Iran factor. And how do US-Chinese relations affect all this?
39:00 - The US is ready to fight China NOW, the Pentagon said. What did they forget to add?
