🇵🇱Poland will send police to the border with Belarus, - the country's Minister of Internal Affairs Mariusz Kamiński

💭"In connection with the tense situation at the border with Belarus, I have decided to strengthen our forces with a group of 500 police from preventive and anti-terrorist units. They will join the 5,000 border guards and 2,000 soldiers who are protecting the security of this border," the official said in a tweet.

🤔In particular, the Deputy Minister of National Defense of Poland, Wojciech Skurkiewicz, noted that apart from operations against Ukraine, hostile actions against Poland and Lithuania from the Private Military Company "wagner" can be expected.

🇱🇹President of Lithuania Gitanas Nauseda recently stated that the presence of Wagner's forces could cause instability in the Baltic region.

🗣"It's too early to draw conclusions about how these militant forces might be used – possibly against Ukraine. There might be some political tension inside the russian federation – perhaps they will again organize an armed uprising against putin's regime <...> As for us, this is another lever in lukashenko's hands against us. And we know our neighbor very well," Nauseda believes.

🇳🇱International Office for the Investigation of russia's Invasion of Ukraine opened in The Hague

🔎 The Center was created to investigate crimes of aggression in Ukraine that the International Criminal Court (ICC) cannot prosecute due to legal loopholes. The United States, which is not a member of the ICC, is also part of the initiative.

🇺🇦According to Ukraine's Prosecutor General, the center will collect evidence for possible cases against Russian military and political leaders responsible for the war.

💭«If there were no crimes of aggression, there would be no other 93,000 cases of war crimes <...> The creation of a special tribunal is now inevitable...» Kostin told Reuters.

🇮🇷Iran has officially joined the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO)

🈵 The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is a subregional intergovernmental international organization aimed at various kinds of cooperation between member countries. It includes 8 member countries - India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Pakistan, muscovy, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. Today Iran was added to the list, and soon Belarus is expected to join following a memorandum signed between the members.

🌐The countries work together in political, trade-economic, scientific-technical, cultural, educational, energy, transport, environmental, defense, and other areas. However, one thing that stands out is their principles, one of which is very interesting: mutual respect for sovereignty, independence, territorial integrity of states and inviolability of state borders, non-aggression, non-interference in internal affairs, non-use of force or threat of force in international relations, refusal of unilateral military superiority in adjacent areas; (One can't help but think of China and India in their "mutual respect for each other," and Kazakhstan, which barely manages to fend off russian interference.)

🧐What's critical? A powerful alternative to Western cooperation is being built, which is gaining momentum. Russia is shifting its partnership vector towards Asia, where it has allies in political hatred and competition in the world. In addition, "oppressed" countries are joining, which feel, unfortunately, simply the unfavorable pressure from the West, not real restrictions - this is iran, and soon belarus. The exchange of resources is colossal, the economic capabilities are colossal. While Western partners are passing "resolutions and condemnations," worried about migrants and other unnecessary leftist issues, on the other side a powerful force is being built that can bring something not very good.

🫡Well, we are just killing russians and belarusians and waiting for more weapons, because resolutions and condemnations cannot win the war.
