What I like about the elections is that they take place on a single day. In the Czech Republic they take two days, and now they also wanna do mail in ballots. Elections should last one day, and no mail in ballots should be allowed. You should be able to vote with your ID at a polling station, that’s it.
In Ukrainian prison…
Gonzalo’s only crime was to expose the Kiev regime, his Ukraine Primer is still worth watching today…
A base in Ochakov, in Southern Ukraine, on the Black Sea, that was supposed to serve the British and Americans was obliterated.
UPD 2024: I at first thought this is a typical Russian hyperbole. I was kind of stunned that this was the first thing Russia destroyed in the war. Kinda reminds me of this video of Russian spetsnaz saying that the Kiev regime has been inviting NATO in…
I have found more info on the Ochakov base.
During Yushchenko’s presidency and the again after the Maidan, and meanwhile the US wanted to get Ukraine into NATO. Even without NATO membership, the US began building a military base near Odessa, without limit to the kind of weapons that could stationed there. After completion, the base could be used for launching rockets with 6-7 minutes flight time before reaching destination. Russia could then be blackmailed in almost any question. Russia wrecked it in the first days of the operation in 2022.
“In the future, the base should be a command centre for the Ukrainian Navy” -explains Oleg Zhdanov for Apostrophe. “In the time of peace it will serve as a training centre for the naval forces of NATO countries and Ukraine. This is a training and material base for command of the navy”

Komsomolskaya Pravda wrote about US and UK presence in Ukraine in 2021. The blue points are where troops were openly deployed, the red points indicate conspicuous deployments. Yavoriv base was also bombed, and there have been reports of NATO officers being besieged in Mariupol.
Karl VII of Schwarzenberg is dead. At his funeral he defined his ass as the Duke of Krumlov, Landgrave of Klettgau, and Count of Sulz. While the two latter titles refer to lands in Germany and Switzerland, the first refers to territory here in the Czech Republic. And from what I can gather using noble titles is forbidden, even in private. But I guess the current Czech authorities do not have anxieties about the return of monarchy like the interwar Czechoslovakia, when these anti-nobility laws were enacted, so nobody cares…
Karl was a globalist shill, he attended the Maidan in Kiev in 2013, and was a member of the Green Party here in the Czech Republic. He supported Black Lives Matter but not so much Me Too because he loved the ladies. He said that he does not want flowers at his funeral and they ought to send the money to Ukraine instead.
He did have flowers at his funeral. And they fucked up the tricolor.
“For Putin, Crimea is the appetizer, Georgia will be the soup, and Ukraine will be the main course.”
Have you seen Russia have any interest in Georgia? Russia has only recognized break away republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia in 2008 after Georgia attacked the Russian peace keepers. Otherwise, Georgia is of little interest to Russia unless they threaten Russian security. And the same can be said about most of Ukraine.
Scientists warn that we will soon, that is by 2030, reach several tipping points after which global warming will not be possible to stop.
Greta Thunberg said something similar, referring to scientists in 2018. By this time we should have already been dead.
But meanwhile:
The Great Barrier Reef is also growing.
UPD:
More propaganda from Czech media. The climate in 2024 will be difficult, humanity sails into uncharted waters.
This is a favourite term used by Anatoly Karlin but…
Situation appears to be far worse, the West has far anal pains over Russia than over Iran.
Many of you know that the American involvement in the Maidan in 2014 is Russian disinformation…
But if you dig into it, you can find examples of support everywhere. Before there was the Maidan, many year ago, there was the operation Red Sox, where the Americans wanted to foment Banderite uprising.

After WaPo comes this…
I must say, this blog focuses on Ukraine and East European affairs, and in 2022, I had an elevated visitor rate but this suffered a 60% in 2023.
Do bears 🐻 shit in the woods?
So you might have heard that 30% of Russians do not have a proper plumbing at home and use an outhouse to defecate. This is often used by Russophobic scum and NAFO transexuals to point out Russia’s backwardness. And it might be true, many parts of Russia are underdeveloped and many people are poor. 100 million people in the EU also live under the poverty line, I wonder how they shit?
If Russians shit in the outhouse, which I do not see anything wrong with, cities in US West coast are literally littered with human excrement. Have you not heard about San Francisco or Portland, where hobos shit in the open like they don’t give a fuck? You people wanna lecture the Russians about civilization? Mind your own business.
I wonder, do the NAFO trolls ever sit down and ask themselves how many people in Ukraine have proper plumbing and modern toilets? A little Google search reveals that it is nothing to write home about.
Only two thirds of urban dwellers in Ukraine have modern toilets connected to the sewers. What do the others use? A septic? In fact, my workplace in the Czech Republic has flushing toilets but is not connected to the sewers. The excrement descends down the hill into the town, which sits on a lake of shit. You can imagine the smell in summer when thousands of tourists visit. Modern toilets existed here since the early twentieth century. But improvements to the sewage system are only being built now.
So, suck it up Russophobes, the Russians will manage.
PS: My mother says this propaganda is silly. She lived in the Russian Far East in the sixties and said they always had a toilet.
New fundraiser for Ukrainians by the EU. Everyone can contribute…
