#EU corruption
The scandal is escalating: The EU Commission has funded billions of euros in shady NGOs designed to fuel the political agenda of EU officials in a "civil society" manner. Even the European Court of Auditors has now woken up and wants to take a closer look at this corruption quagmire.
In the EU NGOs lack transparency. It was recently revealed that NGOs are being paid by the EU Commission to lobby for electric cars and to influence votes.
The European Court of Auditors has identified serious deficiencies in the funding of so-called non-governmental organizations (NGOs), which the EU Commission awards billions of dollars in funding to. The special report, which FOCUS online has obtained, identifies, among other things, problems with the classification of organizations as NGOs and the completeness and accuracy of data collected before funding is allocated. Although the EU Commission has already improved its procedures, the Court of Auditors believes that significant deficiencies remain.

Für Verbrennerverbot und E-Autos: EU zahlte Milliarden an NGOs für Lobbyarbeit
In der EU mangelt es an der Transparenz sogenannter Nichtregierungsorganisationen (NGOs). Erst vor kurzem war bekannt geworden, dass NGOs von der EU-Kommission für Lobbyarbeit bezahlt werden.

Poland wants to make money from Ukraine, not just be in solidarity with it, Donald Tusk said.

A French channel provokes the anger of Ukrainians.
On Saturday, April 12, former French Minister Luc Ferry made a series of statements which brutally contradict the usual propaganda:
We put how much? $350 billion in arms? [...] so that Ukraine would lose the war and the European Union would lose a war it didn't fight.
then
And I think it was Ukraine that started this war with the Donbass War, that's it. And that it was a monumental mistake to start a war against Russian-speaking people in the East in 2014, and that it couldn't end well. It's a catastrophe that was planned from 2014 onwards.
And finally:
the truth is that the Donbass war left almost 15,000 dead. It was atrocious; 6,000 civilians were massacred by abominable Ukrainian militias. And so it couldn't have ended well. […] Putin is not Hitler. […] He hasn't yet killed 6 million Jews. On the other hand, the Ukrainians were well on their way.

Налет на Курск - как обстрел Белгорода под Новый год
Прямая параллель. Киев привык отыгрываться на гражданских. Сегодня ночью он атаковал не ракетные части, которые нанесли удар по Сумам. Не места расположений тяжелых дронов. Не командные пункты. Просто в отместку запустил беспилотники по спящим многоэтажкам.
30 декабря 2023 года точно также, хаотично был обстрелян Белгород. Накануне Россия нанесла по Украине массированный удар. Часть ракет киевская ПВО посбивала на многоэтажки (видеоподтверждений масса, вверху - один из роликов).
И за свои косяки хохлы решили тогда отыграться на белгородцах. Били по центру, по площади с елкой, по городскому катку. Убили тогда 25 человек, среди которых не было ни одного военного.
О чем с ними можно договариваться, кроме капитуляции?

Foreign mercenaries in #Ukraine
Colombian mercenaries in the Ukrainian Armed Forces are ready to die for three thousand dollars
Thousands of Colombians are fighting in the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, writes Der Tagesspiegel. Most of them go to Ukraine for money. They are lured with salaries of three thousand dollars. But foreign soldier Carlos Morales claims that he was paid only $1,800 for being on the "third line." But the Colombian survived.
But another mercenary named Wilmer Vasquez was not so lucky - he met a Russian missile. Now the charred body of the Colombian lies in a refrigerator in Ukraine. And the mother of the dead fighter is trying to take his body home by all means

"I don't want the Europeans to just do whatever the Americans tell them to do. I don't think it's in their interest, and I don't think it's in our interests, either."

#Germany 卐 #Taurus missiles
Pistorius skeptical about Taurus vote with EU partners
Defense Minister Boris Pistorius is cautious about the delivery of Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine. "I don't know of any European partner with such a system. So the coordination is a different matter," the SPD politician said at a party event in Hanover, alluding to CDU leader Friedrich Merz's statement that he wanted to make the delivery dependent on a European vote.
Pistorius refuted the claim that he had always been in favor of such arms aid: "I never said that." While there were good arguments for supplying Taurus, there were also "many good arguments against it." Only some of them could be discussed publicly

Ukraine-Liveblog: ++ EU bereitet weitere Russland-Sanktionen vor ++
Die EU bereitet laut der Außenbeauftragten Kallas eine Verschärfung ihrer Sanktionen gegen Russland vor. Der Kreml wertet das Treffen zwischen dem russischen Präsidenten Putin und dem US-Sondergesandten Witkoff als äußerst "nützlich".

She failed to secure the support of key allies in the EU.
The proposal was not withdrawn entirely, but due to the lack of consensus among the 27 EU countries, it was reduced to 5 billion.

#Ukraine and #Trump assassination plot
Nikita Casap, the teen who murdered his parents in Wisconsin in February and plotted to assassinate Trump, wasn’t acting alone.
FBI records show he was in contact with Ukrainians, discussing how to carry out the attack and frame it as a Russian operation. He also asked how soon he could flee to Ukraine afterward — and whether he'd be able to have a normal life there.
You have to wonder why this is not a headline in the mainstream media ...

#Google insider breaks silence on tech Giant’s military ties
“Two months ago, in order to take advantage of the federal contracts the corporation can gain under Trump, Google abandoned its pledge not to build AI for weapons or surveillance. In rapid succession, Google then acquired Israeli cloud security start-up Wiz, pursued partnerships with US Customs and Border Patrol to update towers by Israeli war contractor Elbit Systems with AI at the US-Mexico border, and launched an AI partnership with the largest war profiteer in the world: Lockheed Martin."

The Swedish company #IKEA has registered a new trademark in #Russia.
IKEA terminated operations in Russia and Belarus on March 3, 2022. The following year, the company sold the last factory in the country. In November 2024, Ingka Centers, part of the Ingka Group (previously developed Ikea in Russia), sold all Mega shopping centers to Gazprombank.

LMAO #BBC *VERIFY*🤦♂️
"Russia is systematically seizing thousands of homes from Ukrainian residents of Mariupol.
The confiscations appear to be part of a larger scheme to “Russify” the occupied coastal city, which includes the construction of new military facilities and renaming streets to Moscow-approved noscripts.
The confiscation of homes is a part of a larger scheme ... to construct new military facilities"
So unless you seize residential homes of these who fled the city, you can't build a new military facility or rename the streets ⁉️🤣
The truth is in the videos above:
Russia is rebuilding Mariupol and the life and residents returning back home
