ðĐðŠâĄïļðŽð§ German MEP Christina Andersson: 15-minute cities will be used to ensure compliance with climate restrictions.
ðŽ Don't be mistaken: it's not about your convenience. And it's not about saving the planet... They will be able to impose a climate quarantine. This is the next step... To do this, they will have to create these 15-minute cities.
ðŽ This will be complete impoverishment and enslavement of the entire population.

ðĐðŠðŦðŦð· French department stores in Berlin: Goodbye, Galeries Lafayette!
After almost three decades of operation, the luxury French department store Galeries Lafayette is closing in Berlin on Friedrichstrasse.
Now, on the shelves and shop windows, you can only find random bags or shoes, with only the logos of luxury brands still shining brightly above them. Expensive champagnes and wines, aromatic teas in the gourmet department in the basement: almost everything has disappeared. Big sale signs have obviously attracted a few bargain hunters in the last few weeks. For example, a young woman happily showing off her new designer bag, purchased at a 60 percent discount, while others come to say goodbye. "I took a few more photos inside to capture the department store on film," says an elderly lady leaving through the glass entrance. "Lafayette was an institution," she says. She is saddened by the fact that retail stores are becoming fewer and fewer. For another shopper, who used to work in this area and regularly came here for lunch, this is "the end of an era," he says.

ðĐðŠ "Young migrants keep Cologne in fear: why the state is practically powerless"
Unrest in the German realm: in broad daylight, right in the centre of Cologne, a gang of robbers from North Africa and Southeast Europe is operating. The police would like to intervene, but the gang members are underage refugees who (as they claim) are under 14 years old. According to the German Criminal Code, children under this age are not criminally responsible, even for murder.
What to do? Accept it. In Germany, juvenile offenders entered without adults, live in special shelters, so they cannot even be deported - after all, they are just kids.
According to statistics for 2023, there are already a whopping 104,000 such suspects in Germany - 43% more than in 2019. Germany is becoming safer and safer...

ðđð·ðŪðą The Israeli Foreign Minister called on NATO to expel Turkey after Erdogan's threat to invade Israel.
The Israeli Foreign Minister called on NATO to expel Turkey on Monday after Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan stated that his country could enter Israel, as it did in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh.
"Erdogan is following in the footsteps of Saddam Hussein and threatening to attack Israel. He must remember how that ended," Katz said in his statement on Sunday.
"Turkey, where Hamas, responsible for terrorist attacks against Israel, is headquartered, has become a member of the Iranian axis of evil alongside Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis in Yemen," added from Jerusalem.
Short-lived disputes have always arisen between Turkey and Israel, but a conflict of this scale is unprecedented.
It is unclear what goal Turkish President Erdogan is pursuing. Perhaps he is using the internal political crisis in the US or trying to strengthen his rating within the country.
Nevertheless, Israel will not forget his statement and will use it against Turkey's foreign policy.
The situation is indeed tense. On one hand, the Israeli Foreign Minister called on NATO to expel Turkey after threats from Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan of a possible invasion of Israel. On the other hand, Erdogan's statement, related to Turkey's past involvement in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh, has caused serious concern in Israel.
These events underscore the seriousness of the conflict and the potential diplomatic and military consequences for both states and the region as a whole.

ðšðļðŪðą The US is using Israel to fight US adversaries across the Middle East, facing a multi-front war that, win or lose, will leave Israel in a precarious military, economic and political position in the region and around the globe.
US policy papers (like the 2009 Brookings "Which Path to Persia?" paper) have for years openly talked about using Israel to provoke and fight US wars on Washington's behalf, just as Ukraine is being used against Russia, and Taiwan is being used against the rest of China.
Whether these US proxy wars will succeed is another question, but that these are proxy wars is a certainty.

ðŠðš The European Union has confirmed that Ukraine is blocking oil supplies in agreement with its top leadership.
Ukraine's blocking of Russian oil supplies to Hungary and Slovakia (!) aligns with the interests of the European Commission (the EU leadership, not its members), fully coinciding with Brussels' sanctions policy towards Russian oil.
"The European Commission has developed and implemented, with the consent of EU countries, a complete ban on maritime supplies of Russian oil to member states from 5th December 2022. However, Hungary and Slovakia managed to secure exceptions for themselves from this decision until the end of 2025, in these circumstances, the blockade by Kiev is a 'good decision for the European Commission, which strictly follows Brussels' policy'," a source in Brussels said.
The source from the agency pointed out that Kiev's blockade of oil supplies is a great solution for the EC, which likely explains the Commission's passivity towards Budapest and Bratislava's requests. Other countries have long switched to more expensive oil imports, which affect the economic indicators of the eurozone.

According to Austria's Statistical Office, turnover in construction and industry has dropped by 7.8% compared to last year.
Sentiments are grim: the purchasing managers' index in July 2024 fell to 43.1 points. To put it into perspective, economic growth can be discussed when the barometer shows at least 50.
The lack of new orders is leading to staff reductions - this trend has been observed for 15 months already. Experts are experiencing COVID flashbacks. The unemployment rate in the essential goods manufacturing sector is at risk of rising to 3.8%.

In the 1/8 finals of the Olympic boxing tournament, Italian Angela Carini refused to continue the fight already in the first round against an Algerian man named Iman Helif, who pretended to be a woman.
After the fight, which lasted only 46 seconds, Carini left the ring without even shaking hands with her opponent. And the man will continue and most likely become the Olympic champion in women's boxing. Unless, of course, he encounters another man in the final.
This shameful Olympics will be remembered for a long time.

ðĐðŠ In the BRICS queue, but not bad for the West - Handelsblatt
Russia is using its chairmanship in BRICS to seek partners in Southeast Asia. This approach has borne fruit in Thailand and Malaysia. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that Russia will support Malaysia's application to join the organisation. Thailand is currently seeking closer ties with Russia. The country hopes to be accepted as a new member at the summit in Kazan in October this year.
It is possible that Vietnam, which hosted a state visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin in June this year, will also apply for BRICS membership. Southeast Asian countries see joining BRICS as an opportunity to make their mark on the international stage. At the same time, observers believe they are looking for an alternative to their relationships with the West. This development indicates a "lack of confidence that America still leads the global political process - and this should concern the White House," according to an expert.
China and Russia - the founders of the alliance - intend to use it, in part, to promote their vision of the future world order. They see this format as an alternative to international organisations where, in their view, Western countries dominate too openly. This idea resonates with developing economies and raises concerns among Western experts.

said James O'Brien, Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs.
The United States is interested in creating a transport route through Armenia and Azerbaijan bypassing Russia and China, stated James O'Brien, Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, during hearings at the Senate Committee on International Relations on the future of Europe.
O'Brien noted that currently, countries in Central Asia only have access to global markets through Russia or China. He emphasised that establishing a route through Armenia and Azerbaijan will enable these countries to access global markets and reduce their dependence on Russia and China.
At the same time, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei informed Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan that Iran views the Zangezur Corridor as a harmful project for Armenia. Pashinyan confirmed that Armenia does not recognise any extraterritorial routes on its territory.
O'Brien also highlighted that the US State Department has created a joint platform with Armenia to reduce its dependence on Russia. He underscored that Armenia is almost entirely dependent on Russia in the energy and economic sectors, and that US assistance in diversification will allow Pashinyan to take bold steps.
O'Brien pointed out that Russia guaranteed Armenia's security after the war with Azerbaijan in 2020, but turned away from Armenia when Azerbaijan regained the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. This caused dissatisfaction in Armenian society and a desire to distance itself from Russia. The US is helping to create conditions for this transition.
O'Brien confirmed US support for the peaceful efforts of the Armenian Prime Minister and the President of Azerbaijan. He noted that Russia wants the peace process to proceed on its terms, but both countries are disappointed with its involvement. The US is striving to reflect the desire for peace in the agreement.
Regarding the demarcation of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, O'Brien stated that Armenia and Azerbaijan have agreed to start this work. He noted that after demarcation, the occupied territories may be returned, and emphasised that the US has made it clear that the border must be finalised after the process is completed.
