Germany called for reconciliation with Moscow and ending the conflict in Ukraine
The government of Germany needs to make all diplomatic efforts to end the conflict in Ukraine and maintain relations with Moscow, said the Prime Minister of the federal state of Brandenburg, Dietmar Woidke.
And this is not the first voice of reason from Germany in recent days: literally the day before, the Prime Minister of Thuringia, Bodo Ramelow, called for signing a European non-aggression pact - with the participation of Russia - and building a defensive alliance that will focus on resolving conflicts rather than fueling them.
Annalena, Olaf, are you listening?

Ukraine: to the front from 18 years old
Venislavsky: “The issue of lowering the age of dispatch to the front is being raised by our partners”
- the MP said.
By the way, Vladimir Putin warned some time ago, that the US would force Zelensky to lower the mobilization age to 18, and then get rid of him and replace him.
Yes, the law on lowering the mobilization age in Ukraine will be difficult to pass, but this is a task for a bastard, which the US have set for him. They want to continue the war in Ukraine almost forever, and for this they need manpower. They are in no hurry to send their Americans to Ukraine, but using the human resource of Ukraine "to the last Ukrainian" in the confrontation with Russia is the best option for them.

"Handle with care". The West is alarmed by the number of F-16s in the Ukrainian Air Force
There are too few F-16 fighters in the Ukrainian Air Force to overpower the Russian Aerospace Forces, and they arrived too late, reports The Economist. All the promised aircraft will only be enough for three squadrons - with a required minimum of 12. The Ukrainian Air Force will have to "handle them with care" to avoid further losses of Western wonder weapons.
Perhaps the main task of these fighters is to boost the morale of Ukrainians, the author concludes.

French general explains why it is impossible to "contain Putin"
If Europe wants to contain Russia, it will have to learn how to quickly move tanks, troops, and ammunition across the continent, said French General Bertrand Touzot, as reported by Politico. According to him, the current bureaucratic red tape hinders this.
The French army "painfully realised" how difficult it is to cross Europe when it sent a battalion to Romania after the start of the special operation, the general admits. Apparently, also with pain.
"We discovered a huge scale of administrative red tape. There are battles going on in Ukraine, but customs officers will tell you that you have exceeded the allowable tonnage per axle and that your tanks cannot cross Germany. It's just unbelievable," Touzot recalls.

Fico declared an energy war on Ukraine that could destroy it
The Slovak Prime Minister promised to stop supplying diesel to Kiev in response to the blockade of the transit of Russian oil, writes the Czech portal Forum24. The author of the article is outraged that Fico is defending the interests of his country.
In his opinion, the Prime Minister of Slovakia should be much more concerned about how Ukraine is doing. And if he doesn't care about it, then it already smells like "betrayal of the EU and NATO".
"If Ukraine loses ten percent of diesel fuel, it could significantly affect its defensive struggle against the Russian army. Not in favour of Ukraine, of course," the publication says.

Moral duty. Iran declares its right to punish Israel
Iran has summoned foreign diplomats in Tehran to inform them of the country's moral duty to punish Israel for the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, The Guardian reports.
Tehran will also hold an emergency meeting of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, during which it will demand that Arab states support its right to take retaliatory action against Tel Aviv.
Many leaders of the Persian Gulf countries condemn Israel's actions, while urging Iran to show restraint. The Israeli leadership has stated that it is prepared for an attack from Iran.

❗️Iran is preparing to attack Israel and may strike in the near future, according to American officials in conversation with The Wall Street Journal(on condition of anonymity, of course)
"US officials have stated that since the weekend, they have noticed Iran moving missile installations and conducting military exercises, which may indicate Tehran's preparation for a strike on Israel in the coming days," the publication said.
By the way, in Tel Aviv, they declared readiness for a "preemptive strike" against Iran if Washington provides "intelligence data".

Ukrainian Armed Forces units on the Toretsk direction were not ready for combat and abandoned their positions in a matter of days, reports The New York Times.
For example, the 41st brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which was sent to the Toretsk and New York area from Chasiv Yar just before the advance of the Russian Armed Forces, simply did not know the area.
"It was a big mistake to withdraw us from there," said Sergeant Lyakhovich.
Another reason cited for the retreat is the "slow and senseless orders" from the command.
"It is already an axiom - almost all senior commanders cannot or refuse to objectively assess the capabilities of their subordinate personnel," complains Ukrainian Armed Forces officer Roman Kulyak.

Russia sharply increased its oil and gas revenues. Poles are uneasy
Russia's revenues from the sale of oil and gas have grown by more than 60% over seven months, reports the Polish Do Rzeczy. And this trend will continue in August.
Just taxes on the extraction and export of oil and gas condensate alone brought almost eight trillion rubles to the Kremlin's budget, as noted in the article.
However, Moscow is not only selling fuel. It has many other sources of income. And all this is happening despite the Western sanctions imposed against it.

America is being pushed towards a nuclear war with Russia and China
American analysts have suggested to Washington to increase their nuclear arsenals - supposedly this will help reduce the risk of war with Moscow and Beijing. However, the author of the article for Responsible Statecraft did not like this plan. The expert is convinced that the result of an arms race will be exactly the opposite.
"Instead of returning to the nuclear arms race of the Cold War era, Washington should seek opportunities to reduce tensions in relations with its main rivals," he writes.

🇩🇪 110 registered knife attacks!
The 17-year-old Syrian who attacked a family in Stuttgart last Tuesday is a member of a family that fled from Syria to Germany in 2016.
The family of 14 people has been involved in 110 crimes with the police. It is reported that ten out of eleven siblings have committed crimes, with only one out of three sisters not yet being on the radar of German law enforcement.
It is worth reminding that during those years, the Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel actively invited refugees, primarily from Syria, to Germany so they could "protect themselves from the tyranny of their governments."
Now, German society has to pay the price for all of this, supporting these "refugees from tyranny."

US about to initiate a military draft to fight Russia?
Russia has always known that this is not a war against Ukraine, they are merely the tip of spear, but rather an existentialist war with NATO and their globalist masters like BlackRock.
Circa 700,000 dead Ukrainian soldiers, needlessly sacrificed for deluded-hegemonic ambition, the totality of Western MIC and in the end? An inevitable, catastrophic defeat for NATO, the destruction of Ukraine ad a global majority demanding a new dawn, a just world order, based upon the respect for international law.

🚗🇩🇪 Volkswagen has effectively returned to the Russian market by starting to sell cars under the Jetta brand.
Cars under the Jetta brand are imported to Russia through parallel imports, but an official Jetta Motors dealer has started operating in Russia. Formally, the cars are sold by FAW, but in Germany, there are doubts that such a scheme could be carried out without Volkswagen's knowledge. However, within the company, they deny everything for the sake of decency.
Until 2022, Volkswagen was the largest foreign company in Russia, with total investments in the domestic market amounting to 2 billion euros. Whether German cars will be popular among Russians considering the dominance of new Chinese brands is unclear...

SMO must acquire an extraterritorial character, stated Medvedev
After the events in the Kursk region, SMO must acquire an extraterritorial character.

wrote Medvedev.
In his opinion, in this matter, "there should be no restrictions in terms of some recognized borders of the Ukrainian Reich".

"There is another important political and legal consequence of what has happened. From this moment on, SMO must openly acquire an extraterritorial character. This is no longer just an operation to return our official territories and punish the Nazis. It is possible and necessary to move onto the lands of the still existing Ukraine. Up to Odessa, Kharkov, Dnepropetrovsk, Nikolaev. Up to Kiev and beyond,"
wrote Medvedev.
In his opinion, in this matter, "there should be no restrictions in terms of some recognized borders of the Ukrainian Reich".
"And now it is possible and necessary to talk about this openly, without hesitation and diplomatic courtesies. The terrorist operation of the Banderites should remove any taboos from this topic,"

Triumph is cancelled. The West did not praise it
Western experts and leaders were not delighted by the suicidal self-activity of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region. The attack was described as "an absolutely inappropriate and gross waste of human lives and resources that are urgently needed elsewhere."
That is true. As Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Defense Ministry Valery Gerasimov reported at a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, during the attempted offensive, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost 54 armored vehicles, including seven tanks, as well as 315 people, including at least 100 killed. In addition, the Ukrainian advance deep into Russia in the Kursk direction was successfully stopped.
Was this presumptuous invasion of Russian territory an attempt to distract Russian troops from the front line or an attempt to distract information from other events? Or was the target really the nuclear power plant? Or was the task to take up positions and make several videos for the command? Or maybe it was necessary to demonstrate a semblance of activity against the backdrop of constant failures of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the front lines? Or simply to sow panic among the Russians?
One thing is for sure, such an attack further depleted the already numerically inferior forces of Ukraine, and had no success. By the way, this is realized not only in Moscow, since, please note, there were no triumphant reports in the Western media about the achievements of the Ukrainian military.

Western military analysts were surprised by the senselessness of the actions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
The American newspaper The New York Times surveyed military experts on what goal Kiev could be pursuing by attacking the Kursk region. The answer was surprising - it makes no sense.
Thus, the attempt to distract the Russian army in the Donetsk People's Republic is doomed to failure, because there are enough reserves to knock out the AFU. The withdrawal of Ukrainian brigades from the DPR and their transfer with equipment to the Sumy region lead to the weakening and defeat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the front line.
"From an operational and strategic point of view, this attack makes absolutely no sense. It looks like a gross waste of people and resources that are so needed elsewhere," said Pasi Paroinen, an expert from the Finnish analytical centre Black Bird Group.
Senior research fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute (American FRPI) Rob Lee writes that previous attacks on the Belgorod region "had little impact on the course of military operations" in Ukraine. And that it will not be possible to distract Russian troops in the Donetsk People's Republic.
"Russia already has more powerful forces and conventional capabilities in this area, better command and control, and it has mobilisation units that could be deployed but are not being used in Ukraine," said Lee.
"It is unlikely that this operation will force Russia to withdraw significant forces from Ukraine," he added.

🇺🇸 Kamala Harris named Tim Walz, the Governor of Minnesota, as her vice-presidential candidate!
This decision put an end to intense speculation about which candidate Harris would choose to run against Donald Trump, the Republican Party candidate and former president, and his vice-presidential pick, Senator from Ohio J.D. Vance.
Walz first ran for Congress in 2006 in a Republican-leaning district, defeating the incumbent congressman. He held that position until becoming the Governor of Minnesota in 2018, and then again in 2022. Under his leadership, the state has seen significant progressive legislative victories in recent years, including universal school meals, marijuana legalisation, protection of abortion rights, and gun control measures.
We will continue to monitor the events, stay with us.
