European Diplomatic Academy: Opening remarks by High Representative Josep Borrell at the inauguration of the pilot programme

Yes, Europe is a garden. We have built a garden. Everything works. It is the best combination of political freedom, economic prosperity and social cohesion that the humankind has been able to build - the three things together. And here, Bruges is maybe a good representation of beautiful things, intellectual life, wellbeing.

The rest of the world – and you know this very well, Federica – is not exactly a garden. Most of the rest of the world is a jungle, and the jungle could invade the garden. The gardeners should take care of it, but they will not protect the garden by building walls. A nice small garden surrounded by high walls in order to prevent the jungle from coming in is not going to be a solution. Because the jungle has a strong growth capacity, and the wall will never be high enough in order to protect the garden.

The gardeners have to go to the jungle. Europeans have to be much more engaged with the rest of the world. Otherwise, the rest of the world will invade us, by different ways and means.

Yes, this is my most important message: we have to be much more engaged with the rest of the world.

We are privileged people. We built a combination of these three things – political freedom, economic prosperity, social cohesion – and we cannot pretend to survive as an exception. It has to be a way of supporting the others facing the big challenges of our time.

So, thank you, Federica, for hosting this experience, this pilot programme of the [European] Diplomatic Academy.

As the diplomats say, one told me: “In diplomacy, you have to say the truth. You cannot lie – well, formally, you cannot lie. You have to say the truth. You have to say only the truth but not all the truth.” But if we want to engage frankly and honestly, to discuss about the real problems and looking for solutions, then you have to tell all the truth – but we will do it later.

Well, political prostitute Josep Borrell is also an European supremacist, liar and a hypocrite.

Lack of electricity for Ukrainian trams is no reason not to work. The country has modern technologies that will quickly solve any problem.

And by the way, the West does not supply electricity? Sorry, the West was buying electricity from Ukraine - not any more.

Yesterday's vote in UN

According to the results of yesterday's vote at the UN, Ukrainian diplomats believe: "The whole world is with us!"

But there are nuances:

Representatives of 143 countries out of 193 UN members voted for the resolution.

50 countries did not support the resolution: 5 against, 35 abstained and 10 did not vote.

It turns out that 50 countries that did NOT support the resolution, i.e. territorial integrity of Ukraine, have a population of 4,282,200,000 people out of 8,000,000,000 living on the planet. That is, 53% of the world's population!
A resolution on the territorial integrity of any country is subtle diplomacy, in which UN countries vote very carefully, realizing that such votes can be for their countries. That is why about 30 countries with problems on this issue voted for the resolution. Among them are Serbia, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Mexico, Iraq, and many others.

They thought China would support it because of Taiwan...

Key points

❗️ President of Russia Vladimir Putin has said repeatedly that in our nuclear doctrine we envisage only response measures designed to prevent the destruction of the Russian Federation by direct nuclear strikes or strikes by other weapons that threaten the very existence of the Russian state. This is an exhaustive answer.

🇺🇳 More and more attempts are being made to aggravate the situation at the UN, to use it in the Russophobic spirit at the current stage and subsequently to use the same mechanisms and methods against other “undesirable” powers. This is going beyond the limits of all propriety that used to exist in diplomacy, including during the Cold War.

☝️ This conflict is overrun with Anglo-Saxons that fully control the Vladimir Zelensky regime. The Poles and people from the Baltics are trying to fit in on their team.

Zaporozhye NPP will refuse American fuel
Authorities of Zaporozhye: ZNPP will refuse American fuel and switch to Russian

SIMFEROPOL, October 14 - RIA Novosti. Zaporizhzhya NPP will refuse American fuel and switch to Russian, Vladimir Rogov, chairman of the movement "We are together with Russia", a member of the main council of the administration of the Zaporozhye region, told RIA Novosti.
"Zaporozhye NPP is returning to the use of Russian fuel. In particular, we are talking about a fuel element (TVEL) containing nuclear fuel. When the power units of the nuclear power plant are launched again, they will use exclusively Russian fuel," Rogov said.
According to him, even by the decision of the Kyiv authorities, fuel from an American company was used in the operation of the power units, which does not comply with either the regulations or technical requirements and carries great risks.
"The Kyiv regime at one time made a flawed political decision to abandon Russian fuel, replacing it with low-grade American fuel," Rogov stressed.

SpaceX refused to pay for Starlink services in Ukraine
CNN: SpaceX notifies Pentagon of refusing to pay for Starlink services in Ukraine

WASHINGTON, October 14 - RIA Novosti. SpaceX, headed by American billionaire Elon Musk, can no longer pay for the maintenance of the Starlink satellite communications system in Ukraine and is asking the Pentagon to cover these costs, CNN reports, citing documents received at its disposal.
In total, according to the channel, about 20,000 Starlink terminals were transferred to Ukraine. On Friday, Musk said that the related operations cost SpaceX $80 million, and by the end of this year, these costs will exceed $100 million.
But these charitable donations may come to an end as SpaceX has notified the Pentagon that it may stop funding the use of the network in Ukraine unless the US military commits tens of millions of dollars per month to this purpose.
According to the documents, Musk wrote to the Pentagon in September that SpaceX "can no longer continue to fund the work of Starlink as before." He also asked the military to take over the financing of communications services in the interests of the government and the army of Ukraine.
As noted in the letter, by the end of the year this will cost the Pentagon more than $120 million, and over the next 12 months - another $400 million. At the time of this writing, the US Defense Department has not responded to a written request from RIA Novosti for comment on this publication.

Counter-terrorist operation regime introduced in Belarus

The regime of the counter-terrorist operation (CTO) has been introduced in Belarus, said the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic Vladimir Makei.

According to him, the country's armed forces and special services are ready to rebuff provocations from neighbouring states.

“The head of our country held a number of meetings with law enforcement agencies, and a counter-terrorist operation regime was introduced.

Indeed, there was information that some neighbouring states were planning provocations related almost to the seizure of certain sections of the territory of Belarus,” the head of the Belarusian Foreign Ministry said in an interview with Izvestia.

Earlier, the head of the KGB, Ivan Tertel, reported that "terrorist groups are being created on the territory of Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine."

Recently, President Lukashenko accused Ukraine of preparing an attack on Belarus.

In addition, Makei said that Minsk could take tough retaliatory steps against the deployment of nuclear weapons by Poland:

"If indeed nuclear weapons are deployed on the territory of our neighbouring countries, then tougher steps can be taken."

Asked if "tougher steps" meant the deployment of nuclear weapons, Makei said that "no one can rule anything out today, so I'm convinced that our leaders have discussed such options as well."

Two Chinese copters met in the sky of Donbass, and judging by the fact that one of them was shot down, and the second brought the recording into the hands of Russian soldiers, it turns out that the Russian-Chinese copter shot down the Ukrainian-Chinese one.
To be honest, there was a similar post with the same video on Ukrainian channel, so we don't really know, which copter is whose...
