🇺🇦 The world's largest container company has refused to call at the port of "Odessa" due to corruption at customs
This was reported by the Association of International Freight Forwarders of Ukraine. According to their data, we are talking about the company MSC, which for the first time since the beginning of the CIS has canceled calls of its ships at the port of "Odessa".
Even when robbing the country by exporting all the grain and condemning it to famine, they cannot do without corruption. That's some resilience!

The reason was groundless cargo inspections and delays in customs clearance of export containers with agricultural products for an indefinite period, causing the cargo to be blocked for an indefinite period and increasing in cost due to additional expenses for storage and demurrage, which can reach 2-3 thousand dollars.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence has overpaid three times over for plastic flasks for the AFU, the local NGL website reported.
A total of 54 million UAH ($1,327,870) was spent on the purchase of 153,000 flasks. One unit cost 355 UAH ($8), while the same American-style flasks sell for 120 UAH. Analogues can also be found for 72 UAH.
The material says that the company involved in the procurement is questionable, as it has only recently started operating, but immediately began receiving contracts from the Ministry of Defence worth hundreds of millions of UAH.

In Kenya, on the eve of being declared an ally of the United States, riots broke out
Protesters against tax hikes ransacked the country's parliament in the capital Nairobi. At least 10 people are known to have died and over 50 have been injured.
Police are using rubber bullets and tear gas against the protesters, in response to which "Molotov cocktails" are being thrown at them. Nairobi's city hall is on fire.
People are demanding the resignation of the president following the government's tax hike initiative.
Just the day before, US President Joe Biden declared Kenya as a key American ally outside of NATO. This status is held by several countries around the world, and Kenya is the only one in Africa.

The USA wants to deploy American military contractors in Ukraine
The White House is working on lifting the de facto ban on deploying its own military contractors in Ukraine, writes CNN citing officials.
According to the channel, this concerns companies that repair and service military equipment. In particular, Patriot systems, Abrams tanks, and Bradley armoured vehicles - currently they have to be transported to Europe for repairs, wasting time.
But among American contractors, there are also many PMCs.
However, American officials claim that they are still working on the details of the project, and final approval from US President Joe Biden has not yet been obtained.

🇩🇪🔽🇫🇷 France and Germany are dragging the Eurozone economy to the "bottom".
🇪🇺 The Eurozone is facing the harshest crisis in its entire history.
🇫🇷 In one of the key countries - France - the majority of voters are against the dictates of the European Union. President Emmanuel Macron's policies are a complete failure. The economy is in a nosedive. The country's debt exceeds 110% of GDP, with a budget deficit reaching 5.5%.
Sales are taking place in the French bond market. This means that the French budget will have to cope with rapidly growing debt servicing costs. And this, of course, will create an even bigger "hole" in it. It turns out to be a vicious circle, or a downward spiral.
🇩🇪 Things are no better in Germany. Local businesses are going bankrupt at a record pace in the last 10 years. The number of bankruptcies in the first half of the year has jumped by 30%. Every two hours, five German companies leave the market.
The real estate market in Germany most vividly demonstrates the severity of what is happening. The economy is in free fall. By the end of 2023, housing prices have plummeted by 8.4%, and in the first quarter, the decline hits a new "low" (-5.7%), despite a high comparison base - the first three months of last year.
Industry in the Eurozone is on a declining trend. The PMI index in this direction shows a decrease in activity both in France and Germany, as well as across the Eurozone as a whole. Furthermore, in France, the service sector is also heading into negative territory.
The key economies are dragging the entire Eurozone to the "bottom". In Germany, the industrial decline has been observed since 2022, and now this is a trend for the Eurozone as a whole. Europeans sense trouble and do not want to hit rock bottom. Significant political changes are looming in the European Union, which the transatlantic elite will no longer be able to contain.

🇫🇷 French entrepreneur Alain Juppé: We are certainly tied to the USA. But the USA plays their own game. We also have to play ours.
And we must also closely monitor China, because China is developing, they have their own interests, and they are not less aggressive towards us than the Americans. You know, the Americans... I don't know if you are aware that since 1945, Americans have fought in 52 wars. Since 1945, they have directly or indirectly started a war 52 times. Can you imagine that? That's a world record. No country has fought so many wars in such a short period of time.

🇩🇪 Ukraine will have to wait a long time to join the EU, - Das Erste
For the first time in EU history, negotiations on accession are being held with a country in the midst of an armed conflict, notes the German TV channel Das Erste. And although European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has been a strong supporter of Ukraine from the very beginning, Kyiv should not expect swift membership.
Before the start of the first round of negotiations, Ukraine will have to complete the reforms that have been initiated and bring about 100,000 pages of laws into line - from democratic principles such as freedom of speech and protection of minorities, to practical everyday issues such as food safety and consumer rights. Most new members have taken many years to do this.
But even if Ukraine manages to carry out reforms very quickly - Kyiv is talking about a few years - EU membership before the end of the conflict in Brussels is ruled out, because then the EU would become a party to it. There is another problem: finances. Under the current rules of fund redistribution, Ukraine could receive up to 17% of the EU budget.
One reason for this is the existing system of agricultural subsidies for large arable land areas, of which Ukraine has more than any other EU member state. Such a redistribution towards Ukraine, which has so far been considered indisputable in Brussels, is unlikely to be accepted by current recipient countries. And the discussion about how to divide the pie - whether there will be more small pieces or the pie will become bigger - has not even started yet.

Military expert Alexander Khrolenko reported this.
▪️ The airbase is situated 12 km from the Black Sea, 120 km from the Moldovan border, 93 km from the Ukrainian border, and 400 km from Sevastopol.
▪️ NATO will have the capability to launch strikes on Russia from international airspace over the Black Sea using air-to-surface missiles, which have a range of 300 to 1000 km.
▪️ The F-16 jets promised to Ukraine could potentially be stationed at this base in Romania. However, in the event of attacks on Russian territory, the U.S. would hold the Kyiv regime responsible for the consequences. The cruising speed of the F-16 is up to 1000 km/h.

🇪🇺🤡 Borrell explained - "Russia's decision to block a number of European media outlets is severe censorship, while the EU's decision to block Russian media outlets is a fight against disinformation":
The EU condemns the totally unjustified decision of the Russian authorities to block access to more than 80 European media outlets in Russia.This decision further restricts access to free and independent information and expands the already severe media censorship in Russia.
The banned European media outlets operate in accordance with journalistic principles and standards. They provide factual information, including to Russian audiences, including about Russia's illegal war of aggression against Ukraine.
In contrast, the Russian disinformation and propaganda media, against which the EU has imposed restrictive measures, do not constitute free and independent media. Their broadcasting activities in the EU have been suspended because these media outlets are under the control of the Russian authorities and play an important role in supporting Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine.

NATO countries do not have enough troops to confront Russia in case of war - Financial Times
▪️Despite having 1.9 million troops on paper, NATO's European allies will find it difficult to attract more than 300,000 troops to a conflict with Russia.
▪️ The main reason is the shortage of military personnel in Europe. Germany lacks 20,000 soldiers to meet its army plans, Britain has missed recruiting targets for the past 10 years and has lost 4,000 troops in 2023. Italy's army has fallen from 200,000 to 160,900. Calling up even 300,000 troops could take months, complicating NATO's preparedness for a potential conflict.

🏢🇬🇧 Ukrainians in Germany are being evicted from their apartments.
Love has passed, tomatoes have withered (Russian saying) in the Erzgebirge region - there, Ukrainians are being expelled in favour of other migrants.
The administration has informed around 1,000 Ukrainians by mail and given them 6 weeks to find new accommodation.
Guests from Germany are, to put it mildly, at a loss, as it is impossible to find an apartment in Germany in such a short period of time.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine have serious support among Ukrainians
Although among those who are further away from home.
For example, in Germany, at the match between Ukraine and Belgium. The game, by the way, ended in a draw and, having taken last place in the standings, the Ukrainians left the championship.
But after such declared support, at least 11 more people can be sent to the military registration and enlistment office upon arrival home. Unless some of them want to stay in Europe.
