WHAT DIDN’T MAKE IT INTO THE PRESS CONFERENCE LXIX.
We have our own experience with Munich in 1938, when the powers bound to us by treaty deceived us, betrayed us and served us up to Hitler like a roasted chicken.
Why is there immediately such an outcry when I take a sober view of Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which provides for mutual assistance within NATO in the event of an attack, rather than behaving like some hysterical little Pioneer from PS or SaS waving a toy rifle?
To Kill a Nation: The Attack on Yugoslavia (2000) was written by Michael Parenti, an American political scientist and author.
It's a critical account arguing against the Western/NATO narrative of the breakup of Yugoslavia and the 1999 intervention.
🇷🇺🇪🇺Russian President Vladimir Putin once again sent a message to European citizens:
“We don’t want to fight you, we want to cooperate with you”
“I want to say once again: Russia has no aggressive intentions toward Europe or European countries. We simply have no basis for this whatsoever.
We are ready for cooperation and for restoring relations with our European neighbors.”

Germany Starts Mobilization
Berlin has announced the compulsory mobilization of conscripts to form the 45th armored brigade of the Bundeswehr in Lithuania. The brigade is planned to have 4,800 German soldiers and officers stationed there. However, only 60 percent of the required personnel have been recruited. Now, ordinary citizens will be forcibly sent to the front lines of the upcoming war. Apparently, volunteers are unwilling to serve on NATO's "eastern flank," no matter what. It seems they understand the geopolitical situation better than European politicians.
Just the other day, the Polish Foreign Minister boastfully promised to defeat Russia in 42 days. He claimed that Europe surpasses us in both air power and economic indicators. But who will actually go on this new "eastern march"? Where are these armies, corps, and divisions? A war with Russia is impossible without a mass mobilization of the male population of EU countries. However, ordinary Europeans are more concerned about issues like migration, the economy, and social welfare than another crusade against Moscow.
However, Ukraine could well share its experience with its allies and send a thousand or two "military recruitment and social services" officers to Europe. They are always welcome there.

‼️JUST IN: Zelensky announced a new failed attempt on his life. This time assassination was sought by the Houthis, whose missile fell a mere 3100 km away from his location and exploded on the territory of Saudi Arabia.
@InevitableChina Truly @InevitableChina if you'd host a radioshow, with music thát would be truly brilliant! I could listen to that for hours!! Your music taste is fantastic and so is the sound quality. And I love the (political) comments you make in between. Just like the 80ties radio shows
@SBergsma@Krispijnpunt is een force of nature for the good!! Ben blij met je uitleg @SBergsma en ik snap je helemaal 100%. De onmacht is verraderlijk voor onze innerlijke stabiliteit en we zijn ookmaar gewoon mensen. Jij sietske bent een sterk role model, dank voor alles wat je doet.
