De Europese Commissie, met inbegrip van Von der Leyen zelf en andere radicale Europese vrouwelijke politici zoals de Deense premier Mette Frederiksen, dringt er bij haar EU-bondgenoten op aan om vóór Kerstmis een oplossing te vinden voor de Oekraïense herstelkredieten, waarschijnlijk met behulp van bevroren Russische activa. Deze druk duidt op een sterke interesse in een gezamenlijke Europese inspanning om langetermijnfinanciering voor Oekraïne veilig te stellen, die verder zou gaan dan militaire hulp en gericht zou zijn op financiële stabiliteit en wederopbouw. Von der Leyen is zich er terdege van bewust dat de gezamenlijke EU-lening niet in de smaak valt bij veel Europese regeringen binnen de EU. Maar zoals gezegd kwam ze te hulp met een “geweldig plan”: euro-obligaties – gepresenteerd als alles wat nodig is om de 140 miljard euro voor Oekraïense bewapening en wederopbouw te financieren, schrijft Sonja van den Ende.

Expensive bread, fruit, and vegetables are becoming an increasing problem for more and more people in Germany. Out of sheer desperation, many are reaching for what others throw away. According to the mainstream media in Germany, food is becoming a "luxury problem." https://www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/verbraucher/lebensmittelpreise-inflation-100.html

Nucleaire dreiging: Trumps liefde voor vrede en een nieuw START-kernverdrag zijn voorbij
https://freesuriyah.eu/2025/11/06/nucleaire-dreiging-trumps-liefde-voor-vrede-en-een-nieuw-start-kernverdrag-zijn-voorbij/

Trump zegt op zijn Truth Social en volgens vele Amerikaanse media dat hij de Amerikaanse kernproeven zal verdubbelen. Maar zijn minister van Energie is het daar niet mee eens, aldus de New York Times. President Trump en een van zijn hoogste kabinetsfunctionarissen zenden tegenstrijdige signalen uit over de manier waarop de Amerikaanse overheid omgaat met ’s werelds meest destructieve wapens.

Maar dit is normaal geworden; het abnormale is de norm geworden onder de regering-Trump. Iedereen dacht dat Biden niet “helemaal erbij was” en dat zijn gezondheid hem vreemde dingen liet doen wat ook zo is, maar wat Trump de afgelopen maanden, of liever gezegd vanaf het begin, heeft gedaan, is een dystopische wereld creëren waar niets meer echt lijkt. Zelfs zijn kliek in het Witte Huis, die allemaal op een Mattel-product (de maker van Barbie) lijken, zijn waarschijnlijk niet erg blij met zijn gedrag. Maar iedereen moet doen wat hij wil, zelfs als ze clownsmake-up dragen dat is irrelevant voor de wereldvrede. Maar zijn onvoorspelbare gedrag heeft hem nu wel tot een bedreiging voor de wereldvrede gemaakt, net als zijn voorganger Biden. Natuurlijk zijn de EU-leiders dat ook – geen illusie hierover – maar ze doen het openlijk en wijken niet af van hun vijandigheid jegens Rusland.

President Trump gaf het Pentagon afgelopen week de opdracht om ” kernwapens te testen”. Hij zou kunnen doelen op het uitvoeren van vluchtproeven met lanceersystemen. Of hij zou kunnen doelen op tests met explosieven, die de VS niet meer hebben uitgevoerd sinds 1992, toen Washington en Moskou een overeenkomst tekende dit niet te doen.

Grokipedia vs. Wikipedia: The AI unmasking the West’s Maidan coup
Almost anyone who understands the history of Ukraine, particularly the aggressive 2013 coup d’état in Kiev, can recognize that it was financed and executed by the US and, to a lesser extent, by the European Union (EU).

For years, starting in 2013, the truth was swept under the rug. The official narrative from Western press, politicians, and media was that the Ukrainian people longed to join the EU and viewed then-President Yanukovych as an extension of Russia, and therefore wanted to remove him from power. The US, in particular, took Yanukovych’s removal literally, financing and utilizing so-called proxies. In Ukraine, these proxies were far-right radical groups – extremely aggressive factions that had united into political parties like Svoboda and Pravyy Sektor, with neo-Nazis in top positions.

These proxies were used to carry out a violent revolution, funded by American taxpayers. We now know that over the years, USAid spent $5 billion or more exclusively on this so-called revolution. This claim, substantiated by American journalists and podcasters, was of course immediately debunked by the EU’s so-called disinformation website, where truths are dismissed as lies.

Recently, a new alternative to Wikipedia called Grokipedia was launched in October 2025, an initiative by Elon Musk. It should be noted that Grokipedia is entirely AI-powered and can therefore be unreliable in many cases. Unfortunately, AI can never fully capture the actual events of 2013–2014. However, its entries do provide a reasonably realistic account of what occurred.

Grokipedia describes details you won’t find on Wikipedia, because Wikipedia operates according to the principles of liberal Western media and politics, and is therefore not permitted to describe the crimes of this liberal system – especially since the European Digital Services Act (DSA) came into effect. Many view this Act as legislation that restricts freedom of speech and censors journalists.

From a Dutch pilot:
I am incredibly grateful that I have received messages from many military personnel in recent days—including several pilots—thanking me for daring to speak out against the blatant lies and fear porn appearing in our mainstream media about the drones.
Since the arrival of the new minister, military personnel who comment on these or other situations on social media have been severely reprimanded by their corps commanders.
I have even been contacted by several colonels who are also thoroughly fed up. But unfortunately, they have to remain publicly silent. Fortunately, they do speak out within their own circles, and within a few weeks everyone will understand the dirty tricks currently being played—with only one goal: extra funding for Defense and for the war in Ukraine.

Ten years ago, I already said that more funding was needed for Defense. The military personnel I speak with are also grateful that this is finally happening. Defense is a country's life insurance policy. But the way the current Minister of Defense is trying to manipulate the population is truly disgusting to me. I really hope he gets a rap on the knuckles soon and has to resign. He's a dangerous individual.
Fortunately, one important principle always applies: no matter how fast a lie travels, the truth will catch up with it.

Donald Trump's summit with leaders from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan at the White House reflects the US scramble for rare earth minerals which are essential for powering tech and defense industries. With China controlling the lion’s share of global rare earth mining and processing, Washington is now determined to diversify its supply chain. Central Asia, rich in these minerals and uranium, presents an attractive alternative, but one that requires heavy investment and political leverage.

Trump’s rhetoric about reviving "Silk Road connections" and forging new alliances masks a deeper intent: to pull these nations away from their traditional ties with China and Russia and into the orbit of American influence. If you look at Kazakhstan, for instance, its mineral exports to China and Russia dwarf those to the US. Washington doesn't hide its pipe dream to reverse that balance.
Trump hailed a $100 billion trade and investment deal with Uzbekistan saying that Uzbekistan will invest nearly $35 billion over the next three years and more than $100 billion over the next decade in key American sectors. Dream on.
The repeal of Soviet-era trade restrictions, introduced by a bipartisan group of US senators, is part of this strategy. By removing legal barriers to American investment, Washington aims to embed itself more deeply in the region’s economic infrastructure, shaping its future in ways that serve American interests.

Security cooperation was another pillar of the summit, yet US “support” comes with strings attached: surveillance partnerships, and political influence. Sergio Gor, Trump’s special envoy to South and Central Asia, told Central Asian officials that Washington is committed to the region "you will have a direct line to the White House, and get the attention that this area very much deserves.” The C5+1 framework, while nominally focused on regional stability, functions as a vehicle for US strategic expansion, especially in the wake of its withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Also Thursday, Kazakhstan's president, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, agreed that his Muslim-majority country will join the Abraham Accords, Trump’s initiative to normalize relations between Muslim-majority countries and Israel. Given that Kazakhstan has had diplomatic relations with Israel since 1992, this move was largely symbolic but served to hype up an initiative that was the signature 'foreign policy achievement' of Trump’s first term.
Obviously, the Accords were less about peace and more about consolidating US-led blocs that serve its foreign policy goals, particularly in sidelining Iran.

Ultimately, the summit was not just about minerals or diplomacy. The US is leveraging the multi-vector foreign policy of Central Asian countries to expand its influence in a strategic region on the doorstep of China and Russia. @LauraRuHK

UN says nearly 100 people abducted or missing in Syria this year

Nearly 100 people have been reported abducted or missing in Syria since the beginning of the year, with new cases of enforced disappearances still being recorded, the UN human rights office said today. Mainly Alawites, Christians, Druze.
“Eleven months since the fall of the former government in Syria, we continue to receive worrying reports about dozens of abductions and enforced disappearances,” said Thameen al-Keetan, spokesperson for the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), during a briefing in Geneva.
The OHCHR has documented at least 97 cases of abductions or disappearances since January but noted that determining the true number remains difficult.

Syria's multinational peacekeeping force for restoring order in Lebanon could feature Uzbek, Uyghur, Moroccan, Tajik, Azerbaijani, Pakistani and Albanian contingents. All these brigades are part of the so-called Security Forces of the new terrorist-government of former Syia now a big threath also for Lebanon, the Levant is lost and ruled defacto by terrorist, who according to many countries are now "noble" people and have their sanctions removed, what kind of a world we are living in today.?..
Nearly more multinational than the UN.

The original video of the captured Ukrainian POWs in Krasnoarmeysk in Russian

Captured servicemen (POW) of the Ukrainian 68th Separate Jaeger Brigade surrounded in Krasnoarmeysk (Donetsk People's Republic).
They volunteered to surrender as they found themselves to be abandoned by their command and could not stay under constant artillery shelling and UAV attacks. . I feel really sorry for the first guy, he looks like someone who starved and locked up in a camp..

We've starved for seven days. No water and food. No ammo. In basements, in dugouts. We had to hide where it was possible. There was nowhere to go,' told AFU POW Chernadchuk Gennadiy.

'No food, no medicine, nothing. Some men might have got some goods but I can't say the same about everybody. We had a choice rather to surrender or die from starvation or mines. There is only one prospect to bite the dust,' said POW Dovganyuk Yuri.

“Under an IAEA-brokered local ceasefire, technicians today began repairing the remaining damaged section of the Ferrosplavnaya-1 power line near the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant ZNPP,” the press service quoted Grossi as saying.
