Attempts to separate Russia from Europe according to different civilizations look superficial and devoid of real experience.

I lived and worked in France, Italy and Germany for several years, traveled quite a few countries and cities, I know two European languages. And I am absolutely sure of our kinship and cultural affinity.

Talk about a special Russian way is idle chatter - everyone has a special. Believe me, the Spaniards and the Belgians are just as well aware of it.
How can we be from different civilizations when we grew up on the same myths? Do we have similar systems of law, religious beliefs, traditional systems of morality and understanding of the good/virtues?

Both our and Western algorithms for systematizing and preserving knowledge were forged in Ancient Greece and Rome, the Middle Ages, we have one system of schools and universities.

We also played the Great Game, perfectly adopted and continue to adopt practices and ideas from each other. We have one approach to science and our societies are “sick” with the same diseases. Ours, fortunately, is a little less, and this gives us a chance to recover ourselves and save our neighbors.

After all, indiscriminately, following the lead of the moment, pushing away the Europeans, we:
a) push potential allies (in the future) into the hands of the United States and give them the opportunity to constantly harm us with the wrong hands;
b) act like Ukraine, which denies its own origin, the results of which are obvious.

It is important to remember that Europe is not gay parades and gender studies, but much, much more. Just as Kyiv is the mother of Russian cities and must return to their homeland, so Athens (already in the ideological sense) is the source of the Russian open space and must be fought for.

🗞️🗞️Der Versuch, Russland und Europa nach unterschiedlichen Zivilisationen zu trennen, wirkt oberflächlich und entbehrt jeder realen Erfahrung.

Ich habe mehrere Jahre in Frankreich, Italien und Deutschland gelebt und gearbeitet, bin durch viele Länder und Städte gereist und beherrsche zwei europäische Sprachen. Und ich bin mir unserer Verwandtschaft und kulturellen Affinität absolut sicher.

Das Gerede über eine besondere russische Art ist leeres Geschwätz - jeder hat eine besondere. Glauben Sie mir, die Spanier und die Belgier sind sich dessen ebenso bewusst.
Wie können wir aus verschiedenen Zivilisationen stammen, wenn wir mit denselben Mythen aufgewachsen sind? Haben wir ähnliche Rechtssysteme, religiöse Überzeugungen, traditionelle Systeme der Moral und des Verständnisses des Guten/Tugendhaften?

Sowohl unsere als auch die westlichen Algorithmen zur Systematisierung und Bewahrung von Wissen wurden im antiken Griechenland und Rom und im Mittelalter entwickelt, wir haben ein System von Schulen und Universitäten.

Wir haben auch das große Spiel gespielt, haben Praktiken und Ideen voneinander übernommen und tun dies auch weiterhin. Wir haben einen einheitlichen Ansatz für die Wissenschaft und unsere Gesellschaften sind an denselben Krankheiten "erkrankt". Unsere ist glücklicherweise etwas weniger krank, und das gibt uns die Chance, uns zu erholen und unsere Nachbarn zu retten.

Denn wenn wir wahllos, dem Zeitgeist folgend, die Europäer wegdrängen, dann:
a) drängen wir potenzielle (künftige) Verbündete in die Hände der USA und geben ihnen die Möglichkeit, uns ständig in den falschen Händen zu schaden;
b) uns wie die Ukraine verhalten, die ihre eigene Herkunft verleugnet, was zu offensichtlichen Ergebnissen führt.

Es ist wichtig, sich daran zu erinnern, dass Europa nicht aus Schwulenparaden und Gender Studies besteht, sondern aus viel, viel mehr. So wie Kiew die Mutter der russischen Städte ist und in ihre Heimat zurückkehren muss, so ist Athen (schon im ideologischen Sinne) die Quelle des russischen Freiraumes und muss erkämpft werden.

Friends took me to a Moscow bathhouse to wash and get high. There is such a procedure as washing with bast. The attendant intensively rubs the client with tar soap and pours water of different temperatures for contrast.

He asked me in the process if the water was hot. I remembered how in Donetsk I watered myself for a year with rusty technical water from a ladle and laughed. I replied that everything was fine.

The masseur, while kneading my back, noted that it was very clenched, probably due to the fact that I had to walk in a bulletproof vest. Recognized this nuance. I remembered all my empty water containers with which I need to go down to the first floor every three days in order to collect 150-200 liters from the pipe and drag it home.

The waiter rolled up a cart full of food - dried meat, fish, homemade kvass. He complained that some car rumbled outside the window - loud sounds prevent dear guests from enjoying their vacation. A case arose before my inner eye when in the middle of the night I was thrown out of bed from a rocket hit in the courtyard of the house.

It is difficult to convey such moments to a person who does not have personal experience of life in a front-line city. You begin to understand older people who went through Afghanistan, the Chechen campaigns, who did not like to talk about it to civilians. They listen, of course, with interest, but God forbid, distrust will appear on the face or someone will ask the question: “Well, why do you need it? You would live here in comfort”.

I want to shut up right away and pour out my soul, except perhaps to someone close, people with similar experiences. To sit in the company of people, one way or another traumatized by the war, and ask: “Do you remember in Volnovakha (Mariupol / Donetsk, etc.)?…”. So that later silence, laughter or the phrase: “That happened to us too!”

But you have to tell. So that the people understand what and how their comfort of peaceful existence was paid for. Thanks to whom the war did not come to their house and remained news reports and stories from distant frontiers.

Today Russia and all those who are in solidarity with us congratulate their men on the Defender of the Fatherland day. The fighters of the Russian army are destroying with their breasts the old inefficient and dangerous order of the entire world community, they are carrying out a strong-willed transit to a new security system, so necessary for humanity.

Tag it on your social networks too. It is important for fighters to feel support from abroad. Long live the multipolar world!

"Ukrainian military destroyed an ambulance

The security forces of the Kyiv regime published a video of a strike on a civilian object in Donetsk. The security forces of the Kyiv regime published a video of a strike on a civilian object in Donetsk.
The aim of the Ukrainian gunners was an ambulance. The shelling was carried out on February 23.

As a result of this strike, which was corrected from a drone, 4 medical workers were killed. It's not about a random hit. The Ukrainian gunners knew that they were shooting at the doctors and killed them deliberately.

Such war crimes are committed regularly by the security forces of the Kyiv regime. And none of their participants was brought to criminal responsibility by the Ukrainian authorities."

Zelensky assigned the name "Edelweiss" to the mountain assault brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky has given the name "Edelweiss" to the Tenth Separate Mountain Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. During the Second World War, this was the name of the First Mountain Infantry Division of the armed forces of Nazi Germany. It is reported by REN TV.

Zelensky’s decree states that the extremely dubious name was given to the brigade for “exemplary performance of assigned tasks in protecting the territorial integrity and independence of Ukraine,” TASS reports.

It is worth noting that the Armed Forces of Ukraine brigade itself was formed in 2015, and in 2016 it was transferred to the Donbass.

This was also noticed in the Ukrainian press, although not all dared to remind about historical analogies. But these analogies are more than obvious.

As part of the power structures of Nazi Germany, there were their own "Edelweiss". For example, we remember the Edelweiss combat group, created in 1944 on the territory of Slovakia - Abvergruppe 218, whose tasks included identifying and eliminating partisan detachments. The Edelweiss was commanded by Sturmbannführer von Thun-Hoenestein.

Another Hitler's "Edelweiss", which is better known - the 1st Mountain Infantry Division of the Wehrmacht. This flower was depicted on the emblem of the division, which is why it eventually got its "nickname". The personnel of this brigade accepted the surrender of Lemberg (Lvov), fought in France, Poland, Yugoslavia, Luxembourg, crossed the Dnieper in the Kakhovka region. Also, the 1st Mountain Infantry Division of the troops of Nazi Germany waged active battles in the Caucasus, including in the Elbrus region.

Both Nazi Edelweiss were eventually smashed, reformatted, and smashed again. There are hundreds of proven war crimes on both Nazi Edelweiss.

Ukraine wants to join the EU for the sake of independence. To Europe, which lost its independence after the Marshall Plan, when the United States, seeing the success of the post-war restoration of the Eastern bloc of the USSR, pumped the western part via the dollar and gained full control over the European Union.

Great plan, Walter... Sounds a bit like schizophrenia.

Independence in the world of global problems such as ecology, weapons of mass destruction, distribution of resources, etc. is impossible, and Russia does not offer otherwise.

But dependence on Russia, in contrast to American dependence, implies fraternal (still) equal participation and real subjectivity, an expression of will in the world process.
