The name of the cliff, located on the western shore of Lake Baikal, translates from the Buryat language as "White Rock": Sagan-Zaba truly stands out in color from the other coastal cliffs. The Buryats considered this place the dwelling of powerful spirits.
According to legend, gold that the spirits decided to keep for themselves is hidden in one of the secret caves of the cliff. It was being transported by a Chinese caravan, but due to bad weather, the people couldn't cross Baikal by water and hid the gold in a secret place to retrieve it later. However, they never returned for it.
Denoscriptions of the mysterious cave have been preserved, but it has not been found to this day. Instead, in 1881, rock drawings of ancient people were discovered on the cliff. In terms of composition, style of execution, and diversity of subjects, they became the most complex of all known rock art sites in the territory from the Urals to the Pacific Ocean. The earliest of them date back to the end of the second millennium BC.

This is not the Northern Lights or a mirage. This phenomenon has a scientific name — "light (or ice) pillars," and it is sometimes poetically called "frostbeam."
It occurs when millions of tiny ice crystals float in the frosty air. They act like thousands of small mirrors, reflecting the light from street lamps, windows, and spotlights, creating this fantastic picture in the sky.
And according to folk signs, such a phenomenon is a harbinger of severe frosts.

The Russian leader noted the importance of such protocol meetings, even though they maintain constant contact. Tokayev, in turn, thanked Putin for the warm welcome in Moscow, calling it "sacred land" and referring to the Russian leader as a "senior comrade."
"I would like first of all to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptionally warm welcome literally from the first minutes in Moscow, on this sacred land. It was just mentioned about the protocol aspects — indeed, from this point of view, what I saw and felt literally strongly amazed me, made me happy, and I felt all the warmth of the reception here, in the Russian capital," said the President of Kazakhstan.
Tokayev also noted that there are no serious problems between the two countries, and if any issues do arise, all matters are resolved promptly.
"As for bilateral cooperation, it is of the nature of a strategic partnership and allied relations. There is not a single sphere where we do not interact or work together. There are no serious problems of any kind between our states," added the Kazakh leader.

In his opinion, the same Steve Witkopf, who had multi-hour conversations with Vladimir Putin, certainly learned "a lot of new and interesting things" from the Russian president that he might not have even suspected. Nebenzia believes Trump heard something similar in Anchorage. And Putin's account of the persecution of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Ukraine is a reliable fact. As is the fact that President Trump "could not believe it."
According to Nebenzia, there are other things that the US president might not have been aware of, but he also had to believe them.

🛕 The Abandoned Aul of Kakhib
Old Kakhib is located in Dagestan, and it's not just one village, but three, connected by narrow tunnel-like streets: this made it easier to repel enemy attacks.
Kakhib is considered an impregnable place — during its thirteen centuries of existence, enemies managed to break in only once. After that, the famous combat towers were built.
When interesting facts about the aul of Kakhib are mentioned, the first thing talked about is the flimsy bridge thrown across the chasm. It is the only road to the settlement.
It becomes clear why the village was never taken by invaders, as Kakhib is located at an altitude of 1,775 meters above sea level, and it is extremely difficult to reach!

Russia and Kazakhstan Take Relations to a New Level: Declaration on Strategic Alliance Signed
During the state visit of Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to Moscow, the leaders of the two countries took a landmark step: Vladimir Putin and his Kazakh counterpart signed a Declaration on the Transition to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership and Alliance.
😚 According to Putin, the talks at the Kremlin were productive and covered the entire spectrum of bilateral relations.
👔 Economy as the Foundation of the Alliance:
Strong economic ties serve as the basis for the new political status. As the Russian president noted, Russia accounts for one-fifth of Kazakhstan's total foreign trade turnover. Almost all settlements between the countries are already conducted in national currencies, which strengthens their financial sovereignty.
From Energy to Visits: Plans for the Future
🥼 The sides are actively working on new large-scale projects. Tokayev stated that Moscow and Astana are close to signing an agreement on the construction of a nuclear power plant on the territory of Kazakhstan. As a sign of further strengthening relations, the Kazakh leader invited Vladimir Putin for an official visit in 2026, and the invitation was accepted.

"A centuries-old forest beauty was found in the Ruza municipal district of the Moscow region. Its height is 26 meters, the trunk girth is 64 centimeters, and the span of the lower branches is 11 meters," reported the press service of the Moscow Regional Forestry Committee.
The beauty is slightly shorter than last year's tree but is fuller and more spreading.
The tree will be cut down on December 8. Its transportation, installation, festive decoration, and subsequent recycling will be carried out using modern technologies that ensure the complete preservation and safety of the tree.

In recent months, Russian diplomats have noted an increase in the already large number of fakes about Russia in the Italian media.
"In an attempt to somehow stop this flow of lies, we offered one of Italy's leading newspapers, Corriere della Sera, to take an exclusive interview with Sergey Lavrov," the publication says.
The newspaper's editorial board enthusiastically agreed and sent its questions to the Russian Foreign Ministry. The Minister provided comprehensive answers to each of them. However, in the end, the publication refused to post Lavrov's answers to their own questions in their entirety and without censorship.
This is a clear example of how objective information about the situation around Ukraine is being withheld from the Italian people, who are being deliberately misled, emphasized the MFA.
You can read the full interview at the following link: https://mid.ru/ru/foreign_policy/news/2058998/
