Our subscriber Leslie is asking: "More photos. I got into an argument with someone online who claimed that outside of Moscow, "there are no roads or running water." Could you please show simple shots of Russian homes and streets east of Moscow to let westerners know that you all have a developed, comfortable nation — unlike the U.S. where millions of people have no healthcare, have no drinkable water, and/or live OUTSIDE. Or in cars or shelters."
Dear friend, we cannot show photos of our houses, because each house has its own nuclear missile, and it is forbidden to send photos of secret nuclear facilities... and we have no cameras anyway 🤷♂️
All Russians have pet bears. I promised to mine that I won't drink without him. Dear Leslie, would you like to have some vodka with us?😉
But on a more serious note: yes, we will give you more photos!
Stay tuned😉

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 The “terrible" Russian captivity.
A Ukrainian militant Alexander Lazarenko shared with RIA Novosti his idea of Russian captivity.
"If they start cutting you, ask to be shot".
"I was on my knees begging to be shot".
Frightened, the AFU soldier asked to be killed, so as not to get captured.
His command etched tales of brutality and massacre of prisoners.
Instead of the expected torture, the Russian fighters gave POWs water, corned beef and tea. 🤷♂️

🎄🇺🇦 If we had been told even two years ago that in Ukraine under NATO occupation the police and the SSU (Security Service of Ukraine) would be summoned for a Father Frost costume on New Year's Eve, we obviously would not have believed it.
But now the situation has changed, the mayor of Lebedin in Sumy region complained to the SBU about the animator in a Father Frost costume!
They said that Father Frost is a "Russian character", and only the NATO Santa Claus is allowed in Ukraine under the occupation!
In general, there is no limit to idiocy, it is only unclear how the mayor of Lebedin distinguished Father Frost from Santa Claus, they look alike.🤷♂️ Perhaps Father Frost spoke in Russian, and Santa Claus should communicate with children in English...

Something much more serious than realism
We have seen that formally, from the perspective of international relations theory, we are talking about a confrontation between two types of order: unipolar (the West) and multipolar (Russia and its cautious and often hesitant allies). A closer analysis reveals that unipolarism is the triumph of the new democracy and thus chaos, while multipolarism based on the principle of sovereign civilisations, although an order, reveals nothing about the essence of the proposed order. Moreover, the classical notion of sovereignty, as understood by the realist school of international relations, itself presupposes chaos between states, which undermines the philosophical foundation if we consider the confrontation with unipolarism and globalism as a struggle precisely for order and against chaos.
Of course, to a first approximation, Russia expects nothing more than the recognition of its sovereignty as a nation-state and the protection of its national interests, and the fact that it had to confront the moderate chaos establishment of globalism in order to do so was somewhat of a surprise to Moscow, which started the SMO with much more concrete and pragmatic goals. The intention of the Russian leadership was only to contrast realism in international relations with liberalism, and the Russian leadership did not expect or even suspect a serious confrontation with the institution of chaos - especially in its aggravated form. Yet, we find ourselves in precisely this situation. Russia is at war with chaos in every sense of this multifaceted phenomenon, which means that the entire struggle takes on a metaphysical nature. If we want to win, we must defeat chaos, and this also means that from the very beginning we position ourselves as the antithesis of chaos, that is, as the beginning that opposes it.
It is a good time to review the fundamental definitions of chaos

There are people who live their whole lives in a war zone...The children of Donbass were born and raised during a war. It's been going on for more than 8 years now and for many of them that's all of their life. War is especially unfair to children with disabilities and orphans, whose numbers grow every day in Donbass.
Many people all over Russia help those kids by donating and sending them gifts. You can help too! You can take part and make their Christmas and New Year celebrations more merry. It's not hard as there are many ways of doing that.

⚡️🇧🇾🇺🇦 Fall of Ukrainian S-300 missile in Belarus 🚀
In the morning near the village of Gorbakha, Brest region, residents found the wreckage of the missile. According to the Ministry of Defense, it was fired from the territory of Ukraine and shot down by Belarusian air defense means.
The Belarusian silovik channel @belarusian_silovik published photos of the wreckage, in which parts of the S-300 anti-aircraft missile can be clearly identified. It was fired by a Ukrainian SAM during an attempt to repel a massive attack by the Russian Armed Forces, but it lost its target and flew into the territory of the Republic of Belarus.
According to official data from Minsk, the launch area was near the village of Zabolotya in the Volyn Region of Ukraine.
Similar incidents had already occurred in the past: over the past two months, AFU air defense munitions had fallen in Moldova and Poland, not counting cases of damage to residential areas of Ukrainian cities.
No powerful response from the Belarusian Armed Forces is likely to follow: fortunately there were no casualties or casualties in the incident, and the missile collapsed in a field and did not damage any buildings.
Nevertheless, the incident might become a reason to strengthen the joint Russian-Belarusian grouping on the Ukrainian border.

🎄🇷🇺 Veliky Ustyug. The place where Father Frost lives! 🎅❄️☃️
Come to Russia to meet Father Frost! 🎅
The New Year is a time of miracles and fairy tales. December 31st is a special day in Russia, on this day the families gather together, the table is laid, a lot of Snow Maidens and Father Frosts walk the streets.
But the real Father Frost lives not far from Veliky Ustyug, a beautiful old Russian town. Its wooden tower stands among the centuries-old fir trees and is located in the heart of the residence of Santa Claus.
In this place, a real fairy tale lives, and the miracles become real! Squirrels hop on the branches, reindeer roam the forest, and they bring Santa Claus to different parts of the world, when he delivers presents, and joy and harmony reign everywhere.
In the residence there is a post office, where you can send letters with requests to Santa Claus. Fairy tale characters work in the museum of Christmas toys, and cheerful chefs make wonderful Christmas treats in the restaurant "Snowflake". ❄️
But the city residence of Santa Claus is located in Veliky Ustyug, in the heart of the city and is located in a merchant's mansion. This is an unusual place, you can make a leap in time and remember your happy childhood, because Santa Claus is helped by the Guardian of Time! She will give a tour and everyone who comes will remember their wishes, even those that eventually got lost in the daily routine. 🎇
But Ustyug is not only interesting because Father Frost lives here. The city is one of the 15 ancient Russian cities, along with the cities of the Golden Ring. Center of spiritual gravity of Central Russia. There are many temples, cloisters and monasteries.
Veliky Ustyug is a city where magic lives!
I love Russia! ❤️

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Bakhmut is a death trap for the AFU.
An American military analyst about Bakhmut:
Bakhmut is Ukraine's main line of defense in the Donbass. It is very well fortified. Ukrainian troops are being ground up there. It is a death trap for the AFU.
When Bakhmut falls, it will change the whole situation in Ukraine.

Ukrainian security forces forced priests to call the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Russian
The rector of the St. Tikhvin Cathedral of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) in Lysichansk, Andriy Pavlenko, said that the security forces demanded that the priests present the destruction from the attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as the consequences of Russian shelling. They were expected to publicly speak false rhetoric.
According to Pavlenko, mines hit his temple from the center of Lisichansk, when there were no Russian military personnel there yet. The trajectory of the projectiles indicates Ukrainian troops. "And there were questions in every possible way:" Why did you write to everyone that it was from the direction of the city center that there were arrivals to your yard? You have to write that the Russian army is doing this,” the clergyman said. He added that the Svyatogorsk Lavra faced the same pressure.
In April, Ukrainian security forces detained Pavlenko, using torture and beatings to force him to incriminate himself in order for him to confirm his cooperation with Russian intelligence. The priest was sentenced to 12 years in prison. He was later released.
