I have just seen a video of Ukrainian servicemen that say they have been stranded in Afghanistan, and no help is forthcoming from their motherland. They are saying they will have to turn to the Russian consulate for help.
For a while, cities in Ukraine were installing these ginormous Ukrainian flags. This is especially done in eastern cities. This totemic erection is called to demonstrate that here is Ukraine. Often the price tag for these flag poles is highly elevated. The officials usually scoop up the difference in price.
I guess that’s where the Lexus came from:
This happened in Kherson…
A funny situation is playing out…
Bulba dictator, Alexander Lukashenko pretty much realised that he owes the EU shit in terms of border protection, and whom he lets into the country, and stopped arresting migrants from the Middle East aiming for Europe. There is hysteria among the pro-Western commentariat of Eastern Europe.
Check out this article:
On the one hand, of course, we might sympathize with illegal migrants, those ill-fated people whom the Minsk regime is now so cynically exploiting. Moreover, according to an investigation by Lithuania’s national broadcaster LRT, Lukashenko is also profiting off of the trafficking scheme. Those people save up money to leave their troubled life behind and move to tranquil Europe, which their traffickers assure them will be a safe trip. Instead, they find themselves in a temporary detention camp, facing prospects of being deported. A truly hopeless situation…
Lithuanians, on the other hand, also must be heard out. Working hard for the past years to overcome the consequences of Soviet occupation, they are trying to adjust their lives to European standards. And then, out of the blue, their usual way of life which they’ve so eagerly sought to achieve gets turned head over heels. And all due to the Belarusian dictator’s revenge, his cynical attack through deploying migrant “pawns.”
Deported where? To Belarus? To Afghanistan?
Note that the Lithuanians are now in a precarious situation that does not have an easy solution. But honestly, all North African countries and Turkey are doing the same and nobody calls these migrants “Erdogan’s pawns”, or “Mohammed VI’s revenge”. Isn’t that kind of hypocritical?
Lithuania should show the Western countries how its done! By the way, Mohammed VI is a cool guy…

The scenes from Kabul airport are history in the making…
Village boys have come to a city, received machine guns and…
Ukraine’s problem is that the Taliban seized power there already in 2014. Village boys, conservative and archaic have to come the city and seized it.
After that, they received guns and went on to fight against other cities.
We were living under a Taliban for the last 7 years.
Translated from here. Meanwhile, there is jubilation in Azov over the Taliban victory…
Dear readers, there was a moral panic in Ukraine…
Over the above photo, where the Ukrainian athlete, Yaroslava Maguchikh poses with her Russian competitor, Maria Lasitskene. Lasitskene won gold and Maguchikh won bronze.
After this photo, there was an outrage among the Svidomites in Ukraine. How dare Moguchikh pose with he Russian competitor to whom she can probably speak without a problem? We have a war with Russia and this is unacceptable.
You cannot blame athletes for not assuming the politically correct attitude towards Russia, when Ukraine is not at war with Russia officially. So while we have even members of the parliament expressing their indignation at the photo shoot, these very same members of parliament never passed a vote officially declaring a war on Russia.
Russia remains Ukraine’s single biggest trading partner, although after 2014, the EU as a whole surpassed Russia in trade volume. As a single country, Russia has the biggest volume of trade with Ukraine out of all the countries in the World.
I personally think that the Ukrainian politics are simply hype, and full of lies. The Ukrainian public is being lied to about a war with Russia, about defense of the Russian language. Politicians particularly use the latter before elections. However, being lackeys of Murica, the Ukrainian politicians become Russophobes while in office.
You can still see old videos of Oleksiy Honcharenko or even the president, Volodymyr Zelensky defending the Russian language. Zelensky in office continues with the policy of discrimination against the Russian language and Honcharenko has supported the Maidan in the wake of the coup.
The Russians do not engage the civil society in Ukraine because Russia has never been welcome there, and local politicians are highly untrustworthy.
Earlier this summer, the immortal minister of the the interior, Arsen Avakov was dismissed from his post, and it seems the Azovites have lost their cover.
The SBU raided Azov premises in Kharkov recently, and one can say about time. The Azov was not only a heaven for neonazis, it is a criminal organization that preys on local businessmen, extorting racket money.
It was a matter of time before the Nazis of Azov met the fist of the government. They were simply too odious. Their patron Avakov has fled to Italy. This is also the end of such post-Maidan stars such as Anton Herashchenko and Zoryan Shkiryak.
Literally and end of a period. However, national chauvinism and radical nationalism is not going anywhere with the removal of Avakov and his neonazis. Unfortunately!
Based on information mentioned here.
The Italian peninsula micro state, San Marino applied to have the Covid vaccination certificate it issues in the EU. However, the San Marino government bought Sputnik V, the Russian vaccine which is not registered in the EU.
The EU purposefully refuses to register Sputnik V because of lobbying from Western big pharmaceutical companies that want the European market for themselves. San Marino is not in the EU and can do whatever it wishes, and I bet they can even make the EU acknowledge its certificate because many important people have money stashed there.
Meanwhile those that are enslaved by EU will pay more money for Pfizer and Moderna, and will be deprived of the Sputnik V option. Any exclusion of Russian and Chinese business from the European market will only lead to the Western companies making the best of their exclusivity.
On the example of San Marino we see the benefits of being out the EU. Sovereign thinking and acting in your national interests. As for Russia, Russians need to learn that they cannot expect fairness from the West…

Interesting outcome of Western policy towards Eastern Europe and the Middle East is playing out before our eyes.
Almost 20 years, the Americans have invaded Iraq and made that already miserable place even worse. Then American proxies in Lithuania and Poland have attempted a failed Maidan in Belarus.
Now we see Iraqi migrants making their way to Lithuania through Belarus. Having been banned from making flights into the EU following the detention of Roman Protasevych, flights have been set up between Iraqi cities and Minsk.
AP reports:
VILNIUS, Lithuania (AP) — European Union officials on Monday pledged millions of euros to help Lithuania tackle a migrant crisis that it blames on the government of neighboring Belarus and its authoritarian president, Alexander Lukashenko.
Ylva Johansson, the EU commissioner of Home Affairs, arrived in Lithuania on Sunday, a day on which a record 287 people walked into the EU territory from Belarus — more than three times as many as in all of last year.
“This is a provocation of the Lukashenko regime. We must show that there is no free access to EU territory,” Johansson said.
“Lithuania, the EU, the Schengen states must prevent illegal access to this area. That is why we, the whole EU, support Lithuania to defend our common external border with Belarus,” Johansson told reporters.
So far this year, 3,832 migrants have been detained in Lithuania. That compares with 81 in 2020. More than two-thirds are Iraqi citizens. Iraqi airlines have increased flights from Baghdad to Minsk from two to four a week and are also starting flights from Basra, Irbil and Sulaymaniyah.
