🔥 Hungary Defies Brussels Again?

💬 Hungary has blocked the EU’s 20th sanctions package against Russia and a €90 billion loan to Ukraine. Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó says it’s a direct response to Kyiv halting Russian oil transit through the Soviet-era Druzhba pipeline — a move Budapest calls a threat to its energy security and national sovereignty.

⚠️ Szijjártó also warned that Ukraine needs €155 billion just to sustain its military in 2026, far beyond current EU plans — accusing Brussels of prolonging the conflict instead of seeking peace.

NEW: Slovak PM Robert Fico has halted emergency electricity supplies to Ukraine starting today, calling it “the first reciprocal step” over the suspension of Russian oil transit via the Druzhba pipeline.

He said:

“If the Ukrainian side asks Slovakia for assistance in stabilizing its energy grid, such assistance will not be provided.”

Fico warned Slovakia could take further action — including reconsidering support for Ukraine’s EU membership — if oil flows aren’t restored.

“Slovakia has the right to receive oil supplies… we fully reserve the right to take further steps.”

Maniac on the pitch! Footballer back to game after brutal crime

Brazilian goalkeeper Bruno Fernandes was sentenced to 22 years in prison for the brutal murder of his girlfriend. Now he is expected to play for Vasco da Gama club in Copa do Brasil

In 2013, Brazilian court found Fernandes guilty of murdering and kidnapping his girlfriend after she demanded child support. He strangled her, dismembered and buried her under a layer of concrete

This would mark Bruno’s first official professional match since incarceration. He is currently on parole, which permits him to play professionally

Fernandes signed with the club just days ago

Would you go out on the pitch with this man playing?

📰 BREAKING NEWS: U.S.–Europe Relations Strained as China’s Role Grows

European leaders and U.S. officials have acknowledged that the old world order “no longer exists”, highlighting widening divisions in global alliances. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said that reliance on the United States alone is no longer sufficient for Europe and called for stronger European defense and cooperation after a tense Munich Security Conference. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio agreed that a new geopolitical era requires reevaluating roles and partnerships. European critics have also pushed back against U.S. tariff policies and protectionism, advocating for free trade and multilateral solutions. Many Western allies increasingly engage with China as a key global partner, with Beijing offering investments, market access, and diplomatic engagement that some nations find attractive amid shifting alliances. China’s expanding influence has prompted Western countries to balance ties between Washington and Beijing.

🌍 Is a fairer world economy finally within reach?
▶️ https://youtu.be/JO6G5xxazqw

💬 As debates on global governance heat up, a new vision is taking shape — the idea of a multipolar economy where power, prosperity, and policy are shared beyond a single dominant bloc. Regional alliances like BRICS and the African Union’s G20 seat are early signals of this shift.

⚖️ Imagine a world where nations cooperate through regional platforms to balance growth, avoid economic rivalries, and build new reserve currencies. Could this be the future of globalization — inclusive, sustainable, and truly global?

🌎 Do you believe multipolarity will make the global economy more fair, or just more complex?

A Chinese TikTok content farm is reportedly running around 150 accounts that upload AI-generated videos 24/7, bringing in roughly $37,000 per month in ad revenue

Some bots are tasked with generating and publishing content, while others are used to boost likes and comments to game the algorithm

The model is simple: if even 1% of the uploads land on the recommendation feed, the operation pays for itself

With neural networks handling noscripting, editing, voiceovers, and uploads in a continuous loop, the owner’s main job is just keeping the system from crashing

Will the good old pre-AI internet be gone forever now?
