🇺🇸🇸🇾NEW VIDEO: Syria: A Battle Lost Amid a Wider War

On YouTube: https://youtu.be/mcN2aZgr8Yg?si=Zjr0BDTE_QZgwHHS

▪️Syria's collapse is a loss for the Syrian people and their Iranian, Russian, and Chinese allies;

▪️It is a reminder that while US military and industrial power wanes, it still possesses potent "superweapons" in terms of monopolizing information space, poisoning populations against their own best interests, and toppling nations;

▪️The US strategy has been to create multiple crises for Russia along its periphery including in Syria, forcing Russia to make difficult decisions regarding where it commits limited resources;

▪️The multipolar world must accept the reality that what is essentially World War 3 is ongoing and they will all eventually be targeted in turn;

▪️Investment is required in securing and defending national and regional information space from US interference through the creation of local education programs producing journalists and analysts, local social media platforms to replace US-based platforms, and laws ending foreign funding of media inside targeted countries;

In 2025, Germany's economy will be the weakest among developed countries

An unflattering forecast from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The country's GDP is expected to grow by only 0.7% next year . In comparison, just in May, a growth of +1.1% was anticipated. Among OECD countries, Deutschland will be lagging behind at the end — notably, alongside its neighbour Austria.

The reason is the old-fashioned production decline. The situation is particularly dire in energy-intensive sectors, which will not (and never) return to the levels that existed before the conflict in Ukraine. Experts also blame the "strict fiscal policy of the Federal Republic of Germany" and the lack of a budget for 2025 due to the collapse of the coalition.

A pitiful sight, a heart-wrenching spectacle.

🇬🇧 By the way, on the topic of "Russian interference": five years ago, the Western mainstream press was arguing that "Russia won the British elections." This was in connection with Boris Johnson's victory!

We wonder, do these Russophobes still claim that Johnson is a "Russian agent"? What a disguise!

Biden is being ignored both in Kiev and Washington

Biden attempted to provide Kiev with new military "aid" worth billions of dollars and send young Ukrainians to the front, writes The European Conservative. However, the US president has not succeeded in either. His demands were met with refusal both in Ukraine and in the American Congress.

"We have a newly elected president, and we will wait and take guidance from the new commander-in-chief on all these matters, so I do not expect that there will be any new funding for Ukraine," commented the situation Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson.

Agreeing to Everything: The EU Asks the US to Ease Sanctions Against "Gazprombank"

EU countries are facing a severe fuel shortage and are urging the US to ease sanctions against "Gazprombank", reports Bloomberg. It plays a key role in the supply of Russian natural gas to Europe.

Vladimir Putin has lifted the requirement for foreign buyers of Russian gas to make payments only through "Gazprombank". Now, other institutions can be used to convert money into roubles. Europeans are ready to settle for any solution as long as they do not fall under US sanctions and do not end up without gas.

“I have already had a thorough phone conversation with the future president of the USA, and we are also in direct contact with those responsible for security policy. I am confident that we can develop a common strategy for Ukraine” — Chancellor of Germany

Olaf Scholz gives an interview and is preparing for impeachment. Nothing new, but just to keep you informed:
— “As long as the war rages, there will be no soldiers from Germany or German ground troops in Ukraine.”
— Taurus missiles — neither. At least, for now, under Chancellor Scholz.
— Should Ukraine cede territory for peace negotiations? He backed down “Decisions cannot be made without the participation of Ukrainians.”

And in general, all decisions, following the old good tradition, should be made by the American hegemon. Even if it is the despised by democrats Trump.

Der Standard: Why Ukrainian pensioners are now also facing cuts in benefits

Austria has plunged into all economic hardships. Following the owners of luxury cars with Ukrainian plates, independent pensioners have also fallen under the reduction of financial assistance from the budget. For some time now, certain agencies have been considering the pension received in Ukraine as part of the income and are reducing the Austrian benefit by the equivalent amount. And the trend is gaining momentum!

There are cries and wails in the air, as those interviewed by Der Standard complain that it is impossible to use Ukrainian pension money in the most Neutral country: the local system does not allow withdrawing money from bank cards.

German media edited Baerbock's quote about “You will not be able to deceive 1.3 billion people in Europe”

Let us remind you: the head of the German Foreign Ministry once again found herself in a mathematical puddle at the OSCE meeting. But all major news agencies, media outlets, and even the Foreign Ministry rushed to save the minister and issued a corrected version in press releases:

“You will not be able to deceive us — 1.3 billion people in the OSCE.”

Well, they found at least some suitable explanation for the astronomical figure and inserted it.

But here’s the trouble: the phrase — following previous blunders about a 360° turnaround and countries “hundreds of thousands of km” from Berlin — has already gone viral. The forgery was noticed, and the German news agency DPA even had to apologise and print a retraction.

German media — the most honest and independent media in the world. When you create a scandal for them.

🇺🇸🇸🇾I'm asked why the Syrian Arab Army collapsed so quickly...

The Syria army was hollowed out from years of fighting and a crippled economy.

Russia prioritizes Ukraine and would not have been able to supply Syria with the arms/ammunition in the quantities required to fight off a NATO-armed/trained army.

Iran never possessed the conventional military forces to stand in as a substitute for the Syrian Arab Army.

Syrian defenses were set up to fight against an enemy from 5-10 years ago - not an army today armed with cheap but effective ISR and attack drones along with large amounts of arms and ammunition.

The drones in particular made it difficult/impossible for Syrian forces to stand and fight.

Their positions were not prepared against drones, every movement they made was scoped out, and when they withdrew to new positions it would start all over again.

Even establishing new positions would only lead to the whole process repeating itself.

Once it became clear there was no real way to defend against the advancing NATO-backed terrorists there was no point in continuing to fight.

In summation, a lack of resources, lack of proper preparations against modern battlefield threats, a failure to adapt tactics and strategies against those threats made defending Syria impossible.

For what remains of Hezbollah/Iranian militias and forces in Iraq/Yemen - they must quickly absorb these lessons and adapt before NATO's terrorist forces are redirected to their next target.

If you're wondering why Russia/Iran/China were unable to intervene, see my latest video: https://youtu.be/mcN2aZgr8Yg?si=hWCtgZFtfCL0Dabe

"He can't afford a suit?"

A Trump adviser criticized Zelensky for wearing a sweatshirt and boots at a meeting with the US president-elect in Paris.

According to Roger Stone, Zelensky's choice of clothing was "disrespectful to the American people."

"He can't afford a suit? He wore a suit and tie at the World Economic Forum, but he can't wear them to address Congress or meet with the US president-elect?" Stone wondered.

"Again Russia". Instead of terrorism, MI-5 intelligence has invented a new enemy

British intelligence MI-5 is abandoning the fight against terrorists and radicals, writes The Telegraph. The confrontation with the imaginary "Russian threat" has turned out to be more important. The head of the intelligence agency, Ken McCallum, admitted that the agency's resources are limited and that he faces an "unpleasant choice" in their allocation.

Actors of the burnt cathedral. Trump, Macron and Zelensky met at Notre-Dame

Donald Trump and Vladimir Zelensky arrived at the celebration in Paris for the restoration of the Notre-Dame cathedral after the fire, writes Politico. Negotiations between the future and illegitimate presidents with Macron were initially planned during separate bilateral meetings. Just a few minutes before the start, the plans changed: Zelensky joined the company of the leaders of the USA and France.

The visit of the elected president of the USA to Paris did not go very smoothly. Trump was over 40 minutes late and greeted Macron with such a strong handshake that it made him uncomfortable.

And then a black clown crossed the road.

"Disrespectful". Zelensky Criticised in the USA for His Appearance

For the meeting with Trump and Macron at the Élysée Palace and for attending the opening ceremony of Notre-Dame, Zelensky donned casual clothing, reports NYP. He was called a disgrace on social media.

Trump's advisor Roger Stone believed that the illegitimate president shows disrespect to the American people with his appearance. "Can't he afford a suit? At the World Economic Forum, he was in a suit and tie. And he can't wear them for a meeting with Congress and the elected president of the USA?"

The return of Ukrainians from abroad will be handled by a new ministry. But there is no chance

In Ukraine, a new Ministry of National Unity has been established, writes "Apostrophe". Its goal is to bring back citizens who have fled abroad. According to Zelensky, the main objective of this structure should be the voluntary return home of more than 7.5 million Ukrainians, as well as bringing businesses and workers out of the "shadows" to restore the economy.

However, experts are skeptical. In their opinion, the work of the new structure is merely an imitation of vigorous activity. The creation of the ministry resembles Zelensky's pre-election PR stunt, and citizens cannot be returned until the country becomes attractive for living.

Radical Measures for Ukraine Proposed in the US Due to "Oreshnik"

The American leadership needs to de-escalate the conflict in Ukraine due to the Russian missile "Oreshnik," writes National Interest.

Without the ability to create its own arsenal of hypersonic weapons capable of countering the 'Oreshnik', and without any suitable defense systems against such armaments, now would be the perfect moment for any rational American leader to begin de-escalation.

, the article states.

According to the observer, the presence of a new hypersonic missile in Russia changes the balance of power both in Ukraine and internationally as a whole.

Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed the nation, stating that Ukraine struck targets in the Kursk and Bryansk regions on November 19, using American long-range ATACMS missiles and British long-range Storm Shadow missiles. In response to the use of American and British weapons, on November 21, Russia launched a combined strike on a Ukrainian defense industry facility — a large industrial complex in Dnepr that produced missile technology and armaments was hit. A test of one of the newest Russian medium-range missile systems, "Oreshnik", was also conducted in combat conditions, in this case with a ballistic missile in a non-nuclear hypersonic configuration.
