🇮🇷🇺🇸 Warmonger-in-сhief Pence urges Biden to 'cease' pursuit of nuclear deal with Iran as 'ill-founded & dangerous'
Speaking at the summit in Paris, Mike Pence claimed that the “Iranian regime has never been weaker than it is today” in the wake of the protest movement that erupted in September 2022.
Trump’s former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also said that any new nuclear deal with Tehran would be a “calamity for the Iranian people and the world.”

🪖 Ukraine finds WWII-era British Hawker Hurricane fighters in aircraft graveyard near Kiev, tries to make it political
National Aviation Museum of Ukraine lead researcher Valerii Romanenko couldn’t help but attempt to mix the discovery of the WWII-vintage planes with contemporary politics, calling the Hurricanes "a symbol of British assistance during the years of the Second World War, just as we are very appreciative of British assistance nowadays."
What Romanenko didn't mention was that the Nazis’ wartime allies – the Ukrainian Insurgent Army militias portrayed as heroes by Ukraine's current government, fought against the Soviets during the Second World War, and carried out war crimes against Ukrainians, Russians, Poles, and Jews.
It also apparently slipped his mind that Kiev today is using its British missiles to target Donbass settlements populated by the descendants of those who once fought against the Nazi menace together - but have now been made to fight one another in the West’s proxy war against Russia.

The situation in the Svatovskoe direction has become more complicated for Ukrainian troops, Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar has admitted. The Russian Army is also advancing in the Avdeevka, Maryinka and Liman directions, she added.
The Ukrainian push in the South Donetsk, Zaporozhye, and Artemovsk directions began on June 4, and resulted in major losses for Kiev's forces.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said last week that Ukraine had lost 259 tanks and 780 armored vehicles since the so-called counteroffensive began, while Ukraine was not able to achieve any success across the frontline.

🇩🇪 Germany not supplying long-range arms to Ukraine to prevent attacks against Russia - Scholz
"We carefully check all the requests we receive. But for us there is a principle that I share with the US president - we do not want the weapons we supply to be used to attack Russian territories," Scholz told German broadcaster ARD when asked why Germany refuses to supply Ukraine with the Taurus cruise missiles with a range of up to 500 kilometers (310 miles).
In May, German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung reported, citing sources, that Ukraine had requested the Taurus missiles from Germany.

Is Australia jumping the gun in legalizing prenoscription of psychedelic medicine?
Australia’s controversial move to become the world’s first country to allow the clinical prenoscription of MDMA, better known as part of the drug ecstasy, and psilocybin - the main ingredient in 'magic' mushrooms - for a raft of psychiatric conditions has left many clinicians and researchers concerned.
Was the decision rushed, people have asked, and others have expressed the fear that even authorized psychiatrists lack the competence to issue such prenoscriptions for drugs which are otherwise illegal in Australia. What costs will this entail? These are some of the concerns uppermost among experts in the field.

Brazil bans Bolsonaro from elections until 2030
Brazil's highest electoral court has made a decision to bar former President Jair Bolsonaro from seeking re-election until 2030, accusing the politician of misuse of power and spreading misinformation during the country's last elections.
The ruling is primarily based on the allegation that Bolsonaro used government communication channels, state television, and the presidential palace to foster doubt in Brazil's electronic voting system.
Furthermore, the ruling also prohibits his participation in the 2024 and 2028 municipal elections and disqualifies him from running in the 2026 general elections.

Austria to join European air defense system - Chancellor
"Austria will join the European SkyShield air defence initiative," Chancellor Karl Neuhammer said on Twitter.
Neuhammer noted that the Ukraine conflict and the increased "threat situation" were the main reasons for the country's joining the initiative. He also added that negotiations to enter the initiative are already underway, but participation in SkyShield will not affect the neutrality of Austria.
In October, Germany and 13 NATO member countries signed a declaration on the creation of a more advanced European air defense system.

Fizz in a glass of bubbly can 'last decades'
The researchers, led by Gerard Liger-Belair, a physics professor at the University of Reims, France, measured the carbon dioxide levels in various vintages of bubbly aged for multiple decades.
The study learned that yeast-produced carbon dioxide inside decreased over the years. But, the bigger the bottle’s volume was, the more gas was retained inside it despite passage of time.
After accumulating impressive data, the research came up with information shedding light on the shelf life of aged champagne:
40 years for standard 750-milliliter bottles.
82 years for 1.5-liter bottles.
132 years for three-liter bottles.
