⚡️Chinese military survey ship docks at Sri Lanka port – Reuters⚡️
🇨🇳The Chinese survey vessel Yuan Wang 5 docked on Tuesday at Sri Lanka's Chinese-built port of Hambantota, a port official said, a move likely to stoke concern in neighbouring India about the growing influence of its bigger and more powerful rival
🤔The movements of the ship have fuelled contention between India and China, two of Sri Lanka's biggest allies in its current economic crisis, as India fears China could use the port, near the main Asia-Europe shipping route, as a military base
✍️Foreign security analysts describe the Yuan Wang 5 as one of China's latest generation space-tracking ships, used to monitor satellite, rocket and intercontinental ballistic missile launches
💁♂️The Pentagon says the Yuan Wang ships are operated by the Strategic Support Force of the People's Liberation Army

Chinese military ship docks at Sri Lanka port despite Indian concern
A Chinese military survey ship docked at Sri Lanka's Chinese-built port of Hambantota on Tuesday after a delay of several days because of opposition to the visit from India, which vies with China for influence in crisis-hit Sri Lanka.
🇭🇷💀 "The conflict was presented to me as positional, not like that at all": Croatian mercenary facing death penalty
⚔️204 Croatian citizens were fighting on the side of Ukraine. However, by early August, only 49 remained. The rest had either been destroyed or left Ukraine. One Croatian prisoner, Vjekoslav Prebeg, is officially listed as a prisoner of war
▪️ Prebeg was born in Zagreb in 1982. According to the mercenary, he had no combat experience before the war. However, he was known to have served in the Croatian Armed Forces for five years
▪️ In Ukraine Vjekoslav got in December 2019. In social networks, he wrote that he lived in Nikolaev. Claims that he wanted to serve three years to get citizenship and stay in the country. The reason: he fell in love with a Ukrainian girl, who cared for her sick mother and refused to leave her. Prebeg assures that he did not want to kill anyone, and the conflict was presented to him as "positional," without active hostilities
▪️According to Prebeg, he doesn't consider himself a mercenary. He serves in the army - in the Ukrainian Marine Corps, with which he signed a contract on May 25, 2020. "I hope that they believe me and will treat me the same way they treat Ukrainian prisoners of war. I just want to live," Prebeg told the interview. Vjekoslav also admitted that there were three other foreigners serving in his battalion, all from Great Britain
▪️ The Croatian was detained in spring in Mariupol when he tried to escape together with Ukrainian fighters. He later confessed that during the hostilities in Mariupol he had received orders not to let civilians out of the city
▪️ The tribunal must determine the degree of the Croatian citizen's guilt. Given Prebeg's foreign nationality, he could face the death penalty

⚡️A U.S.-Russia nuclear war could starve 5 billion to death⚡️
😱Some two-thirds of the world could starve to death in the event of a nuclear war between Russia and the United States, according to a Rutgers University-led study published Monday. Nuclear conflict would lead to “catastrophic” disruptions in food supplies, as sun-blocking soot and ash wilt crops around the world, researchers wrote in the peer-reviewed study published in the journal Nature Food
❗️The researchers examined how wind patterns could spread smoke and fire from nuclear attacks and cloud skies above major food exporters such as the United States and China. The lack of sunlight would collapse harvests and could lead to a 90 percent drop in animal, fishing and crop yields worldwide within four years of a conflict between major nuclear powers
💁♂️Nuclear war would compound existing threats to food security. Climate change, the war in Ukraine and the coronavirus pandemic have already severely disrupted global food production. A record 345 million people around the world face food insecurity, an increase of nearly 200 million compared with pre-pandemic levels, according to the World Food Program

⚔️At 12:49 a.m. Pacific Time on the 16th of August 2022, the Global Strike Command of the Air Force launched an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California to show the readiness of American nuclear forces. The test was also to instill confidence in the lethality and efficacy of the country's nuclear deterrent

⚡️I didn't read the contract and didn't get paid: testimony of Swedish mercenary facing death penalty⚡️
🇸🇪46 Swedish mercenaries fought in Ukraine. By early August, there were only 8 of them left - the rest either repeated the fate of Edward Selander, who was killed in Ukraine, or fled the country
🪖The only Swede who surrendered to Russian forces was officially charged with mercenarism
▪️Mathias Gustafsson had no military experience, but "learned how to handle an Ak-47 in Estonia 20 years ago"
▪️He began traveling to Ukraine back in 2015 and finally moved in the summer of 2021. On February 24, he signed a contract with the Ukrainian Armed Forces to serve in the Marines as a sailor to the position of helmsman-motorist
▪️ According to the Swede, he allegedly did not read the document and did not receive any salary for the service. He had no right to operate seagoing vessels and no certificate on passing the corresponding courses
▪️ Unlike other mercenaries, Gustafsson did not seek to earn a Ukrainian passport while serving in the army: he bought Ukrainian citizenship and a local driver's license for $700
▪️ During hostilities, the Swede was surrounded in Mariupol along with Croatian Vjekoslav Prebeg. The mercenary claimed that he had never fired a weapon or been on the front line, but only guarded a military camp in Vodyane and the Ilyich factory
▪️The Swede surrendered in May in the industrial zone of the Azovstal plant, where he allegedly simply sought refuge
▪️The DNR Supreme Court found Matthias Gustafsson guilty of participating in hostilities as a mercenary. He now faces the death penalty
The mercenary does not agree with the charges. The next hearing in the case of Gustafsson and the four other mercenaries is scheduled for October

🇨🇳China will view further U.S. arms sales, official travel to Taiwan or naval activity near the self-governing island as provocations that will further destabilize relations and prevent progress on other issues, Beijing's ambassador to the U.S. warned Tuesday
❗️After Sen. Ed Markey led another delegation to Taipei on Sunday, China launched a fresh set of smaller-scale exercises. The White House contends that China is using Pelosi's visit as a pretext to change the status quo and "intimidate and coerce Taiwan"
🇺🇸At the same time The U.S. plans to send naval vessels through the Taiwan Strait in the coming weeks and to approve additional arms sales to Taiwan
💁♂️Those steps would be consistent with the practices of past administrations, but Qin warned that China would see them as an escalation of tensions and be "forced to react"

📈Households are expected to come under further pressure this autumn from a fresh rise in energy bills, which the Bank of England forecasts will drive inflation above 13% and trigger a long recession as families rein in their spending

‼️POLAND REMINDED UKRAINE OF ITS NAZI PAST‼️
🇵🇱The deputy head of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of Poland Yaroslav Selin demanded that Kiev recognize the Volyn massacre as genocide
☠️According to him, the mass murder of Poles by Ukrainian Nazis in 1943 is a historical fact. And he fully fits the definition of the word "genocide". Selin stressed that it was time for Ukraine to recognize this fact. “They have to admit it because it’s a fact. It’s just a fact. A political decision was made and implemented to ethnic cleansing, to eliminate the entire national minority that has lived there for centuries. Selin told the Polish Press Agency (PAP) during a TV interview
😱The official also added that a Polish-Ukrainian working group is currently being formed to search for mass graves of Poles in Ukraine
💁♂️It should be noted that Kiev cannot recognize the Volyn massacre as genocide, because this will mean that the Nazis, whom the Ukrainian authorities have been praising as "national heroes" for many years, are in fact just murderers. It can also stir up the neo-Nazi groups that exist today, which Ukrainian officials are very afraid of

⚡️Loss of a Technology Leader⚡️
🤔South Korea will not be in AUKUS, where the West intend to attract Japan, which they will probably succeed. Koreans and Japanese are old enemies and current economic competitors with an unresolved territorial issue, which will be difficult for them to get along in the same boat. Seoul also seems to have realized that the United States is "merging" allies (one example of Taiwan is worth something, Ukraine, however, too), often sacrifice them for their own interests (this is the example of the EU), use double standards, dictate, blackmail, turn the economy and finance into weapons
💁♂️Americans who are unable to agree among themselves even within the country are unreliable, they need chaos and the weakening of other countries in order to appear strong and maintain their command system. And for South Korea, all this will mean disaster. It is unlikely that Washington, of course, will put up with this so easily, but the current South Korean government seems to have made the right choice. If Seoul manages to maintain its newly chosen course, it will be another confirmation of the decline of American hegemony

✔️ Yesterday Seiska reported that Prime Minister Sanna Marin's scandalous party was not limited to the walls of her private residence. Sanna and the company of celebrities had a great time not only at the Chéri restaurant, but also at the legendary famous Pub Theatre. According to Seiska, their wild party lasted until six in the morning
✔️ "My attention was caught by Sanna Marin because we walked into the hall almost simultaneously. The prime minister was clearly drunk," an eyewitness told Seiska. "Later, in the vip lounge of the restaurant, Marin confronted me. It occurred to me whether I should offer the prime minister some water. By then she was already drunk"
✔️ An eyewitness was amazed at the way Sanna Marin treated the opposite sex in the restaurant: "Sanna danced intimately with at least three different men. She also sat on the laps of two different men. The prime minister was holding the hand of the man next to her, and the other man was gently holding Sanna's hand. Sanna looked like one of her group of beauties. She acted like a single guy in his early twenties. It was hard to believe she was married. She was partying in the VIP lounges until at least half past six in the morning. I wasn't very drunk myself, so I have an accurate idea of the situation"
✔️ Seiska's data is based on eyewitness observations from several independent sources. Seiska confirmed the identity of the sources and reviewed the video footage
✔️ However, after Monday's merry parties, the prime minister was ready for work and gave an interview to Yle, commenting on visa restrictions for Russian tourists. Only the prime minister's slightly husky voice gave away the hectic weekend parties behind her back"

✔️ "My attention was caught by Sanna Marin because we walked into the hall almost simultaneously. The prime minister was clearly drunk," an eyewitness told Seiska. "Later, in the vip lounge of the restaurant, Marin confronted me. It occurred to me whether I should offer the prime minister some water. By then she was already drunk"

⚡️So who is maintaining the fire of war in Ukraine?⚡️
🇺🇸19 retired generals and ex-officials urge US to increase arms supplies to Ukraine and calls on Biden administration to step up pace saying that the US was providing enough weaponry to ensure a stalemate but not sufficient to help Ukraine recapture territory seized by Russia
🇪🇺In Europe, meanwhile, completely different moods
🪖Throughout all of July, Europe’s six largest countries offered Ukraine no new bilateral military commitments, according to new data — the first month that had happened since Russia invaded in February
⚔️The revelation is a sign that despite historic shifts in European defense policy — which have seen once reluctant countries like France and Germany ship arms to Ukraine — military aid to Ukraine may be waning just as Kyiv launches a crucial counteroffensive
💁♂️The fresh data, covering the U.K., France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Poland and set for release on Thursday, comes from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, which has been maintaining a Ukraine Support Tracker throughout the war. It illustrates a point Ukrainian military officials and politicians have been repeatedly making: That major European powers are not keeping up with the military aid coming from the U.S., and that having led the charge, big-hitting Britain and Poland may be running out of steam. Military specialists and some members of European Parliament have increasingly echoed the point recently

⚡️Poland’s central bank chief warns of German designs on Polish territory⚡️
🇵🇱Poland is heading toward a recession, its currency is losing value and inflation is among the highest in the EU, but the head of the country's central bank has other concerns
❗️The danger for Poland lurks in Berlin and Brussels, Adam Glapiński warned in an interview with the right-wing Gazeta Polska published Wednesday
🇩🇪Germany is aiming "for the recovery in some form of their former lands, which are now within Poland's borders, and the subjugation of this entire belt of countries between Germany and Russia," said Glapiński, referring to the territorial settlement after World War II that saw some eastern German territories handed over to Poland. The border shift has long been accepted by German governments
💁♂️He warned that Berlin's designs are being pushed by Donald Tusk, the leader of Civic Platform, Poland's main opposition party, and a former Polish prime minister and president of the European Council

Adam Glapiński sees a danger not in worsening economic stats, but rather in a plot by Berlin and Brussels.
