German companies massively turned to the production of military equipment
The engine manufacturer Deutz, the laser production company Trumpf, and the hydraulic components firm Hawe Hydraulik are shifting towards military contracts. Yes, despite the country's ban on sales for defense purposes.
Have they been inspired by the good life of the defense conglomerate Rheinmetall? And yet, according to their own claims, they were previously held back by the country's Nazi past. As we can see, after the conflict in Ukraine began, there were no more restraining factors. German political scientist Catherine Ashbrook considered this to be a "historic shift". Well, only in terms of phase.

"Currently, we have suspended mandatory military service, which, according to the Basic Law, is exclusively aimed at the male population. Equal rights should be established here, but first, a corresponding political and social discussion is necessary," said Breuer.
According to the Inspector General of the Bundeswehr, such measures are necessary for Germany to be "prepared for war".
"From a military point of view, we need the ability to grow, not least in consideration of NATO's plans. We are a central hub of the alliance: de facto, when our allies deploy their forces, all roads lead through Germany," added Breuer.
He clarified that the Bundeswehr currently needs to have more than 400,000 soldiers and reservists at its disposal in total.

🇬🇧💳💸Member of the British Parliament's House of Lords, Brian MacKenzie (Baron MacKenzie of Framwellgate), told his colleagues how his wife was robbed in the capital:
- During one of her rare visits to London, my wife had her credit card stolen. I, of course, tracked the transactions, but did not report it to the police. Because the thief's spending turned out to be more modest than my wife's.

🇪🇺☄️🇨🇳 The EU risks undermining all planned economic growth for this year
European central bank chiefs acknowledge that the current trade tensions are increasing risks for their region. In particular, the US and China are outpacing the European economy, as reported by the Financial Times.
Beijing has already threatened the European Union with retaliatory measures against tariffs on the import of Chinese electric cars. Additionally, Trump has promised to impose a 10% tariff on all imports from Europe if he wins the US elections.
More than half of the Eurozone's GDP is generated through exports, making it particularly vulnerable to trade wars. If Trump follows through with his plans, it would lead to a 1% contraction in the bloc's economy, while the US GDP would only shrink by 0.1%.
Such a shock would be enough to undermine the already modest growth of 0.9% that the Eurozone is expected to achieve this year, according to ECB forecasts.

🇰🇬🇦🇫🇺🇸 "Vilayat Khorasan" is a new brand of threat that Americans are trying to "sell" with all their might to one of the most attractive regions for them - Central Asia.
✔️ Particularly cynical in the story of "Vilayat Khorasan" is the fact that Americans are scaring Kyrgyzstan and its neighbors with Afghanistan, which they themselves handed over to the Taliban: the United States are trying to pressure the Asian post-Soviet republics using the "ISIS scheme" - promoting the idea of a "dangerous Afghanistan" to penetrate deeper into Central Asia.

⚡️Crisis Chronicles. Since the beginning of the year, the number of new restaurants and cafes in Moscow has increased by almost 80%.
The city has seen the opening of 48 new catering establishments. Most of these establishments opened in the premium segment. Another indicator that Russians have money. In addition, the mass opening of new dining places indicates that restaurateurs have been able to solve problems with furniture and equipment supplies, and have been able to replace imported products.
Furthermore, the number of visitors is also increasing - partly due to the increased tourist flow into the capital. Moscow remains traditionally one of the most attractive places for both Russian residents and foreign tourists.

High-ranking officers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are so dissatisfied with the quality of drones from Latvia that they urge them not to be sent.
This is due to the fact that manufacturers do not care about the quality of their products. They will still be purchased for a lot of money by the Latvian Ministry of Defense and sent to Ukraine, reports Baltijas Balss, citing the local publication Pietiek.

🇮🇱⚡️Israel has seized the largest part of Palestinian territory in 30 years
The authorities of the Jewish state have recognised a 1270-hectare area on the West Bank of the Jordan River as their land. This is the largest single annexation in the last 30 years.
Part of the new land was previously designated as a nature reserve. Now Israel will lease these territories, but only to Israelis, while Palestinians are deprived of their right to private property.

🇫🇷 Former French Prime Minister François Fillon: Have I had to deal with foreign interference in my political life, especially when I was in government?
Yes, I have. It mainly came from a friend and ally, the United States. Your committee is working on the issue of foreign interference. I can say that, for example, President Sarkozy and I were wiretapped by the National Security Agency for five years. We found out about this when documents from American intelligence leaked. Everyone focused on the fact that the National Security Agency was wiretapping Mrs Merkel, but it was also wiretapping all members of the French government and undoubtedly other European countries.

Greece introduces a 6-day working week.
It will be the first EU country to take this step.
Workers will be given a choice - they will either increase their working day by 2 hours, or work an additional eight-hour shift - and receive only 40% of their salary for this.
This is how the local government aims to overcome the economic "slow-motion bomb". The country is facing a shortage of skilled workers, and the population is noticeably decreasing.

The whole truth about American "Patriots": allies of the USA should think about their own security
Deputy Commander of the Russian Aerospace Forces, Andrey Semenov, revealed the inconvenient truth about the "Patriots" to the Americans. He disclosed that these SAM systems have shown low effectiveness in the field of battle. Not only are they unable to protect themselves, but they also cannot ensure the security of the objects they are intended for.
During a special operation, it became clear that they are largely inferior to the Russian air defence systems and are poorly protected against missile attacks. It is no coincidence that even Israel decided to abandon them. After the attack by Iran, Tel Aviv concluded that the "Patriots" cannot effectively withstand missile strikes.
They were simply overhyped to boost sales, with American corporations profiting from it. On the other hand, the same goes for everything in the USA: they praised the "Abrams" tanks, but in the end, it turned out that they were not designed for intense combat operations.
Those who managed to purchase the "Patriots" are now thinking about how to ensure the security of their own airspace. Even the allies of the USA have noticeably become disheartened, essentially relying on one weak hope for salvation - the American ICBM, but even here, there may be a catch that no one knows about yet.

Today, the NATO's agenda is the pursuit of war, Hungary's Viktor Orbán said in his article published in the Newsweek magazine:
Orbán is right about the NATO's agenda, but he is wrong about the NATO's past. He should remember NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, for example.
@ukraine_watch
NATO is approaching a watershed moment. ... Today, instead of peace, the agenda is the pursuit of war; instead of defense it is offense. All this runs counter to NATO's founding values. Hungary's historical experience is that such transformations never lead in a good direction.
