India's top oil supplier has gone from Russian oil to none at all—Trump stuns everyone by claiming that PM Modi has consented to halt all purchases of Russian oil completely.
But what's the price? Higher oil costs, ironically from Venezuela, hitting taxpayers hard, and a deal with a partner that's not exactly reliable—where Delhi will STILL face tariffs.
Modi hasn’t confirmed this yet; it would be a colossal blunder if he does.
Russia is waiting for India's official confirmation. Stay tuned as we follow this story closely.
Vladimir Lenin is now MORE POPULAR in Russia🇷🇺 than at any time since the fall of the Soviet Union
67% of Russians have a positive view of the Bolshevik revolutionary who laid the foundations for the Soviet Union to transform Russia from a feudal state into an industrialised superpower; the world’s first socialist state.
For the first time in the history of the world, the great unwashed masses, took over an entire nation under the leadership of Lenin. What followed over the next few decades were dramatic improvements to peoples’ lives by every metric:
In 1917, Russia was mostly illiterate and agrarian. By 1959, literacy exceeded 98%, and the USSR had one of the world’s most educated populations
Life expectancy rose from roughly 32 years (1917) to the high-60s by the late 1950s, despite the devastation of World War 2.
Industrial output (1913-1940):
🔹 Electricity 2 → 48 billion kWh (24×)
🔹 Steel 4.2 → 18.3 Mt (4×)
🔹 Coal 28.9 → 164.6 Mt (6×)
By 1960 the USSR generated 290 billion kWh of electricity, second only to the United States.
Doctors per 10,000 people increased from 14.6 in 1950 to 23.9 by 1965.
Hospital beds increased from 57.7 to 96 per 10,000 people
The urban population rose from 15% in 1917 to a majority by the early 1960s.
GNP growth averaged 5–6 % per year in the 1950s, among the highest globally.

US🇺🇸-RUSSIA🇷🇺 DEAL: THE END OF THE UKRAINE🇺🇦 PROXY WAR AND TIME’S UP FOR ZELENSKY?
After more than 3 years of a failed proxy war designed to bring Russia to its knees, Washington recognises that that objective has failed. All of the European and American sanctions did not cause Russia’s economy to implode, the use of Ukrainians as cannon fodder by NATO did not bring Russia to its knees as predicted…
We said this wouldn’t happen. Hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of Ukrainian lives were used in this failed attempt by Washington to break Russia, and now Washington has finally given up and as part of the 28-point-plan, met a lot of Russia’s key demands to resolve the root causes of the conflict.
The Russian Orthodox Church, banned previously, will be reinstated. The Russian language will be officially recognised again as an official language. No NATO membership, and a reduced Ukrainian Armed Forces. The Donbass and Crimea officially ceded to Russia, and frozen frontlines in Kherson and Zaporizhia.
Russia’s battlefield advance and Ukraine’s collapsing defence has become too dire to ignore, and Washington has set a Thanksgiving deadline for Zelensky to accept the deal to end the war, otherwise he faces completely being cut off from US support. Zelensky wants to negotiate details, but it is likely that Washington has run out of patience.
Zelensky and his corrupt entourage may be safe for now under this deal, but they will face the wrath of the Ukrainian people, who realise that lives could have been saved, and less land could have been lost, if Zelensky’s regime negotiated sooner and hadn’t listened to the demands of the Biden Administration and European vassals. Zelensky’s regime will no doubt also face the consequences for their corruption and mass looting.
Ukraine’s far-right will no doubt be outraged, and perhaps their weapons will now turn on Zelensky. For Washington, Zelensky has clearly outlived his usefulness as a puppet figurehead, and is now facing the dangers that come with being discarded as so many other US ‘allies’ have been.
As for the multipolar world’s Island of Irrelevancy, the European Union, it has been left out in the cold, not even consulted about this plan, because it is viewed as a delusional vassal by both Washington and Moscow. Constant pandering to Washington has rendered Europe as nothing but an afterthought, babbling and complaining, with no one caring to listen.
Europe could have pursued its own interests, presented itself as a broker of peace, and ended the war on their own continent sooner. Instead it clicked its heels and obeyed Washington, pulverising their own economies by cutting themselves off from the cheap Russian energy they relied on, on the altar of destroying Russia…in the end, they destroyed themselves, with political establishments in Western Europe now reviled by their own populations.
Russia has faced down NATO and Washington, and still stands. The plan to break Russia and then turn the imperial arsenal against China has failed. Russia remains standing, closer to China than ever, as China continues to advance as the 21st Century’s superpower while not firing a single shot.
A winner in the West? The military-industrial complex, which milked another cash cow war for profits, the outcome of the war does not matter.
Chinese experts say it’s now possible ‘a person will live to 150 years’
But Putin says the ‘question is not how long to live, but HOW to live’
‘Traditional values answer these questions’
We stand behind our community. Everyone on the R6 Intel team loves this game, and we dont want this game to go down.
Hopefully the devs and upper Ubisoft management listen.
#SaveSiege
Need people to understand that these 3 games are completely different, with the only similarity being that they are all FPS.
They all stand on their own and do their own thing.
Siege is a close-quarters tac shooter.
COD is a classic arcade shooter.
Battlefield, although also referred to as arcade, is more of a large-scale milsim if anything.
If I want to run around and gun players (or zombies), I will play COD. If I want to fly a helicopter into a building, I will play Battlefield. If I want tense teamwork and CQC, I will play Siege.
You can enjoy them all, critique them all, and be a part of them all.
So I decided to swap the main menu from my game because I am tired of seeing soulless backgrounds every time I launch it.
Having a themed seasonal background makes the vibe of the menu but also the season itself completely different.
When I say WE do not want modernized backgrounds because you want to "advertise" the modernized maps, I’m talking about the whole community.
Modernized backgrounds looks extremely boring, we used to have super cool ones reflecting the season or Operator itself.
Look at Y9S1 for example…, please consider making a change.
