📹Activists from the Just Stop Oil group have sprayed the Harrods store with orange paint as part of continued calls for the government to cancel new oil contracts.

They are actively seeking to accelerate fossil fuel production, which will kill millions of people, while failing to address the worst cost-of-living crisis this country has ever seen. Vulnerable people will be freezing to death in their homes this winter, while the government refuses to tax the rich and the big energy companies that are profiting from our misery.”

Previously, two members of the group threw tomato soup on Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" painting in the London National Gallery and glued themselves to the wall.

▪️The new US national security strategy shows an unwillingness to negotiate and conduct an equal dialogue with Russia;

▪️At the moment Russia fights for a world order based on international law and the UN Charter with the practical implementation of the principle of indivisibility of security for all.

▪️The world has changed. Today, it is naive to expect that the United States, as in the last century, will remain a "guiding star" for all mankind, to use Henry Kissinger’s apt expression.

💬“Any contact with Russians at all is seen to be a blasphemy against the full-throated support of the regime in Kiev. And in fact, all avenues for diplomacy have been effectively shut down at this point. Russia is even talking about that it doesn't even need diplomats in Europe anymore, it's pointless. And it's talking about drastically stepping down its diplomatic presence because their lives are really just in threat at this point due to abuse and death threats and the harassment they're getting from European governments. So yeah, there's no rainbow anywhere in sight for the end of this conflict.” Mark Sleboda, international affairs and security analyst said.
