Earlier, his father, the former President of Syria, Bashar al-Assad, came out with a statement about the departure from Syria, in the last days before the fall of the government and the takeover by the terrorists of Hayat-Tahrir-al-Sham, who were helped into power by the US, Turkey and Israel.
There was never a plan—not even a backup—to leave Damascus, let alone Syria.
Over the past 14 years, Syria has endured hardships and dangers no less severe than those of late November and early December. Anyone intending to flee would have done so long ago, particularly in the early years when Damascus faced near siege, daily bombardment, and the constant threat of terrorists reaching its centre.

The most terrible tragedy is the death of children. This is the most terrible pain of Gorlovka". The mayor of the city showed the museum room "Sunny Circle", which is dedicated to the crimes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine against civilians. Here they placed photographs of 24 children killed by Ukrainian nationalists. I have visited Gorlovka in 2022 and witnessed myself when the primary school was hit. Gorlovka was situated at the frontline, now the Russian army conquered more villages in the DPR, the frontline is further away...

Ukrainian POW tells about service of teenagers in AFU assault brigade

Captured Ukrainian serviceman Pyotr Polinkevich claimed to have seen 16-year-old soldiers in his brigade.

'The said there were orphans. Obviously, they were afraid, intimidated,' he said.

He recalled that he was very scared when servicemen of the Sever Group of Forces began to assault his position. Wishing to save his life, he took off his armour, laid his weapon, and came out of a dugout with his hands up. Now he is alive and well. He is not in danger.

'Don't go to the war, you don't need it. Surrender, and everything is going to be okay,' the prisoner told his comrades.

So much for sanctions, the Netherlands:
The Netherlands increased imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia by 68% year-on-year in 2024 to 1.92 bln cubic meters, according to a report by the Statistics Netherlands (CBS). In 2023, imports of LNG from Russia totaled 1.14 bln cubic meters. In 2024, the Netherlands’ total imports of LNG amounted to about 21 bln cubic meters. But still the gas is very expensive! On Monday, traders paid more than 58 euros for a megawatt hour of natural gas. That is about 5 percent more than at the end of the day on Friday and is the highest level since February 2023

As President Putin recently said "European leaders are crawling with their tails between their legs or something like that, towards the US". Here is one who is trying a charm offensive, the radicalized Secretary-General of NATO and former Dutch prime-minister Mark Rutte, who in his "spin-dink English as the Dutch call it" has started a charm offensive. He tries to blame Russia for the ships and cables damage in the Baltic Sea and other idiotic things ! But hey that's Mark's charm... NATO press conference: ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZpDfTEgWfc

Europa heeft een Europese lente nodig
Het is tijd voor een nieuwe koers in Europa en de oude politiek moet worden afgeschaft. Foto’s Getty Images, YouTube, bewerking: Mirjam©Photo
Zoals ik bijna drie jaar geleden al schreef, Europa zal het niet winnen van Rusland en nu lijkt het er bijna op, hoewel er nog veel ‘horden’ genomen moeten worden, Amerika is immers een onbetrouwbare partner, maar dat is niet nieuw, dat is al jaren zo. Het is eigenlijk altijd “America First” geweest, dat zien we terug in het spoor van bloed dat ze na de Tweede Wereldoorlog over de hele wereld hebben getrokken, de meeste oorlogen zijn begonnen, of verlengd door de Verenigde Staten van Amerika.
De grote klap kwam gisteren natuurlijk toen bekend werd dat Poetin en Trump contact hadden over Oekraïne. Oekraïne dat een obsessie werd voor de Europese elites, ingefluisterd door de Amerikanen en in Nederland weer een obsessie meer met de MH17.
Lente der Europese Naties (1848)
Europa heeft een nieuwe revolutie nodig, een Europese lente, zoals lang geleden in 1848
In 2025 moet de persvrijheid terugkeren, afschaffing van alle oude politieke structuren, partijen en elites, een evenwichtig beleid voor alle lagen van de bevolking, onafhankelijkheid van Amerika. Afschaffing en ontmanteling van alle Amerikaanse bases op Europese bodem, ontbinding van de NAVO, oprichting van een eigen Europees veiligheidssysteem en bovenal de terugkeer van diplomatie, menselijkheid en hervorming of afschaffing van de Europese Unie. Een Europese Unie die bedoeld was voor handel en wederzijdse diplomatieke en culturele banden was het doel en zou het weer moeten worden. Dat zouden mooie doelen zijn voor een revolutie net als in 1848. Lees meer: https://freesuriyah.eu/2025/02/13/europa-heeft-een-europese-lente-nodig/
