Ukraine attacked Moscow the Capital city of Russia today with drones that were released from baloons which were high up in the air, which led to the cancelling of many flights around Moscow.

This years G20 group photo had to be cancelled due to European leaders especially the German and Polish delegations refusing to take the photo and threatening a walk out if Lavrov Russias foreign minister was involved. Wow...

Afinal, os russos roubavam as máquinas de lavar dos ucranianos. Ainda assim, houve quem tentasse desacreditar e ridicularizar os que denunciavam esses roubos, apesar de existirem imagens que os comprovavam. Leiam ou ouçam a explicação do MG Arnault Moreira. 👇 “A Ucrânia pôs-se a desmontar o Kinzhal.... Portanto, tem três. Dos 196, três são: um chinês, um russo e um bielorrusso. E os outros 193? São todos ocidentais. Com particular destaque dos Estados Unidos, que produz a grande maioria disto. Por que é que isto acontece...? Porque grande parte destes componentes são os mesmos que encontramos numa máquina de lavar louça, só que estão montados de forma diferente para o transformar num míssil. Isto é, a Federação Russa, como não tem sanções para importar peças para máquinas de lavar roupa, consegue fabricar um míssil com base nesta sua rede de contatos mundial de empresas, muitas delas fictícias, fantasmas, que têm por objetivo fabricar máquinas de lavar roupa, mas que depois entregam os componentes para poder ser fabricado o Kinzhal….” "Moscovo olha para a França a arder com entusiasmo": observador.pt/programas/o-do… via @observadorpt
Isto mostra que para putin não há melhor aliado do que um adversário que joga a seu favor. MG Arnaut Moreira 👏 👇 "O que este fim de semana demonstrou claramente é a capacidade que tem vladimir putin de influenciar Donald Trump. Donald Trump estava enredado num conjunto de legislação que o próprio congresso aprovou, que punia a federação russa pela invasão da Ucrânia…. Pois, um telefonema de vladimir putin foi suficiente para fazer cair, digamos, esta perspectiva da utilização das sanções como uma arma de pressão sobre moscovo. vladimir putin conseguiu 4 ou 5 coisas e todas elas são importantes para moscovo e nenhuma é importante para a Ucrânia. Quais são essas questões? Primeira questão, conseguiu suscitar de novo o problema da legitimidade democrática de Zelensky, isto é? Não foi moscovo que falou nisto, foi, influenciou Donald Trump para Donald Trump trazer outra vez o assunto das legislações. Segundo aspecto, marcou a divergência entre os Estados Unidos e a Europa, nomeadamente, mas também os outros países. Portanto, ele foi capaz de criar uma nova cisão entre os Estados Unidos e os seus parceiros europeus. Foi também capaz de promover a ideia de que a Ucrânia é a grande responsável pela subida do preço dos combustíveis e que a federação russa tem a solução para isso. Ainda há mais uma questão que é importante, foi concentrar a questão da guerra da Ucrânia exclusivamente na questão do diesel e da capacidade de refinação, que é o verdadeiro ponto crítico da federação russa, isto é, a federação russa conseguiu trazer e focar Donald Trump num momento de grande vulnerabilidade. vladimir putin entendeu que Donald Trump precisa de algo que alivie o preço do diesel e a federação russa apareceu na altura que lhe pareceu adequada para introduzir algo que pudesse ajudar Trump e com isto Donald Trump deu cabo daquilo que era a continuidade da política externa norte-americana com um único telefonema de vladimir putin."

Americans have lost any right to make fun of the French for "surrendering". America has sold its ass to russia without a shot being fired. The biggest surrender monkeys on the planet. Let's see if they wash their shame on Tuesday.

A humanitarian operation to rescue people in Oleshky, in the Kherson region, has taken place. A ceasefire was established in the Kherson sector, during which roads to Oleshky were cleared of mines and humanitarian aid was delivered. We hope humanitarian access to Oleshky will remain open. Also, people who needed evacuation have been taken out of the city and the surrounding community. As of now, Ukrainian citizens from Oleshky have crossed the Ukrainian border in the Chernihiv region. All of them will receive the assistance they need. It is important that government agencies and all the regional and local authorities involved work effectively and help our people adapt. I thank the American side and U.S. First Lady Melania Trump for their mediation. I am proud of our Defense Forces of Ukraine, who defend our country and honorably ensured the security conditions for this humanitarian operation. I thank Ukraine’s Human Rights Ombudsman, Dmytro Lubinets, and his team for carrying out this mission. And I thank everyone around the world – every journalist, every political and civic leader, and every concerned person – who helped draw global attention to the situation in Oleshky and the true humanitarian catastrophe in Ukrainian territory temporarily occupied by Russia. When the world pays attention, people are rescued. Further steps toward de-escalation and real progress toward peace are also needed. Glory to Ukraine!

I don’t mean to be a killjoy, I’m not sure there is a new hope. We’ve lost our homes, stolen or destroyed by Russia, and there can be no peace without justice. While it’s great that they’re back with their loved ones, Putin still wants Kyiv and that’s not going to change. But keep that optimism, it’s commendable.
This is what it’s all about. Oleshky evacuees are finally reunited with their loved ones. There’s a new hope that the ceasefire in Oleshky can provide the framework for a larger peace, and scenes like this can be felt all across the frontline.

Russians are being prepared for the confiscation of their savings: Kremlin demands everything for the war Gennady Zyuganov, leader of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF), is once again proposing to confiscate Russians' savings. He directly called for seizing 130 trillion rubles and using them to finance government spending. Anyone unfamiliar with the purpose of this "opposition communist" should understand that everything he does and says is entirely in line with the "hand of the Kremlin ruler" that controls him. So right now, they’re testing us to see how Russians will react to the possible confiscation of savings. Even though the state budget is entirely focused on the needs of the war, there won't be enough money for it. 130 trillion rubles - a sum Putin is unlikely to resist. Putin's regime continues to do what it has always done - taking whatever it wants from its silent servants. Now it's the turn of people's savings, which may soon become "state property", just as has already happened with all of Russia's resources. It's time to hit the old hands of this decrepit dictator.

Imagine being released from Russian captivity, only to find your own president supporting your captors. 🙃 Perhaps having Russian propaganda drilled into you, day after day, throughout captivity could affect your perception? Just saying…. I hope he gets the care and support he needs, I’m uneasy about him being put in front of cameras so soon after his release, he clearly isn’t right.
.@POTUS: "While I was negotiating for you, stupid people wanted me to put sanctions on Russia." Mr. Hubbard: "Russians laugh at these sanctions." @POTUS: How would it have been if I told Putin I wanted Stephen Hubbard back, then put sanctions on? Mr. Hubbard: "They would all laugh."

They think all Americans are the dumbest fucking hogs on the planet for allowing a slavish moron to the Kremlin like Trump become president. russia hates you America russia pisses on you Donald Trump and the republicans are their tools! What will you do about it? Open wide and take it?

Today, October 30th, my dad has been killed in action. My kind, calm father. I write it here because I know my dad has many friends in the NAFO community, people who he could rely on for help. His memory will perdure on this account. Forever loved and missed. 🛡️🕯️❤️

Can Ukraine switch to an alternative? Nothing comparable exists. Dmytro Stetsenko, 46-year-old architect of Ukraine's homegrown replacement, died of sudden heart failure this summer. Europe's rival OneWeb won't hit 1,000 satellites until 2034. Musk operates over 11,000. 7/

"They killed us." With these words Novaya Gazeta, Russia's most famous independent newspaper, announced it is closing. Six of its people were murdered under Putin. 🧵Here is what Russia is losing. [1/12]

Norway responds to Trump’s insult with a tongue-in-cheek showcase of designer toilets After Donald Trump called Norway a “shitty country,” the country’s tourism board, Visit Norway, published photos of unusual public toilets with the caption: “Norway is making toilets great again!” The collection featured toilets with panoramic views of fjords, wave-shaped buildings and even the so-called “Golden Toilet” on the island of Senja. Some have already become tourist attractions in their own right. Earlier, Trump criticised Norway for not awarding him the Nobel Peace Prize and said he would not accept migrants from the country. Oslo reminded him that the prize is awarded by an independent Nobel Committee, not the Norwegian government.

É proibido os drones sobrevoarem multidões, senhor deputado? Muito bem! Então quem captou estas imagens na Festa do Pontal, que encontramos na página oficial do PSD no YouTube? Um pombo?
Não sei se está restringida ou não a utilização de drones mas para quem faz o teste na ANAC para a utilização de drones aprende que é proibido sobrevoar multidões

With Putin's post election mobilization kicking into high gear - capturing alcoholics and and like off Russian streets - the noticeably lower quality of meat arriving at the front now has commanders aghast.
As expected Putin's quiet mobilization is now rapidly spreading to all regions of Russia, with headhunters grabbing guys randomly off the streets to then be brutalized into signing military contracts. In Primorsky Krai, a mother's investigation discovered her missing 35-year-old year old son, Sergei Kopylash had been abucted off the street on October 1st and already in Rostov in a military unit by October 4th. He had initially been picked up off the street, managed to escape, but later tracked back to his apartment building.

When did we learn there was a direct connection between Trump and Russia? A few days after Trump took office for his second term, the blocking of US military aid to Ukraine began. Right after Trump humiliated Zelensky in the Oval Office, the Russians stopped hiding and made a show of themselves on the Ukrainian front. They felt powerful having the backing of the U.S. You know what happened next.

Trump’s administration is incoherent, but if you follow the paths of personal enrichment and good for Russia, you’ll be right almost every time.
So, Russia is working with the Houthis to target Saudi oil infrastructure and drive up world oil prices to help the Russian economy. And Trump is not helping the Saudis defend while also threatening to escalate his war--which also increases price of oil. It all helps Russia--funny that. understandingwar.org/researc…
