The car manufacturer Volkswagen lost more than 1 billion euros in the third quarter.

In comparison: In the same months of the previous year, VW was in the plus with 1.56 billion euros. The root of the problem lies in the new American tariffs and Porsche, VW's subsidiary, whose profit has dropped by 96%. Just the adjustment of their strategy and the write-offs cost the group 4.7 billion euros.

According to Spiegel, VW's surplus has decreased by 60% in the first nine months, from 8.8 billion euros to 3.4 billion euros.

And the year is not over yet...

⚡️The Baltic States and Russia's "Shadow Fleet".

Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia actively support sanctions against Russia, but at the same time, an interesting game is taking place off their coasts. Journalists from LRT, 15min, Eesti Ekspress, and Nekā personīga have uncovered how the "Shadow Fleet" operates in these countries.

From June 2024 to March 2025, two bunker tankers — Rina and Zircone — refuelled 177 ships 286 times. Most of them called at Russian ports before or after their journeys.

This is how the Russian "Shadow Fleet" gets its refuelling right off the coasts of Europe. The refuellings took place at sea, near Denmark and Sweden, and the companies conducting them are registered in Dubai but have links to Lithuanian firms like Fast Bunkering.

Not all tankers had international insurance, and the owners are often outside the jurisdiction of the sanctions. Although bunker companies should check the routes and permits of the tankers, in practice, fuel is delivered without major issues.

The international community must end discrimination in sports that has nothing to do with political decisions. This was stated by Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó during his speech at the 43rd session of the UNESCO General Conference in Samarkand.

According to the minister, sports should unite the world, not divide it. Therefore, UNESCO must take action against discrimination in sports.

"We must be clear: No athlete can be held responsible for the decisions of political leaders, and no one should be forced to make political statements," emphasized Szijjártó.

The diplomat recalled how in 1984 the Communist Party banned Hungarians from participating in the Olympic Games in Los Angeles. At that time, socialist countries boycotted the Olympics at the initiative of the USSR.

"We do not want today's international sports organizations to use similar methods," the foreign minister highlighted.

Szijjártó added that the Hungarian government is against the suspension of athletes by international sports organizations due to decisions made by political leaders of their states.

The firewall against the opposition "Alternative for Germany" is crumbling?

In February 2025, the Dortmund city council, at the initiative of the SPD, the Greens, and the Left, banned decisions from being made if the majority could only be reached through votes from the AfD.

The municipal legal supervision recognized this as an obvious "violation of the principle of equality" and demanded the repeal of the regulation. Under pressure, the council agreed to discuss the matter again, but ultimately did not change its decision. Now the case could end up in court.

Democracy squandered with taste.

Solar energy in Europe is destroying the power grids. Unreliable renewable energy sources were responsible for a record 8,645 voltage fluctuations last year (2,000% more than in 2015). As a result of such fluctuations, power plants can fail, leading to system-wide blackouts, as has already happened in Spain.

J.D. Vance sensationally states that he does not support Palantir's actions in collecting the personal data of American citizens in the United States.

Student:

"Do you agree that large private companies like Palantir accumulate databases on US citizens?"

Vice President J.D. Vance:

"No, I do not support that. I am often asked about Palantir because there is a meme online suggesting that I am supposedly very closely connected to Palantir.

Palantir is a private company. Sometimes they offer useful services, and sometimes they do things we do not like.

What is happening with artificial intelligence means there will be huge incentives to steal your data, collect it, and use it against you to sell digital advertising.

I do not believe in that, and I fight against it, whether it is Palantir or another tech company, literally since my candidacy for office.

We need to think about large-scale surveillance. One of the big questions in American politics for the next 10 years is how to ensure that you are a sovereign citizen, and you cannot be a sovereign citizen if a private company or government can steal something from you that belongs to you."

In Germany, migrants from Syria have committed over 135,000 crimes in the last 10 years — Freilich

This is one crime every 39 minutes over a period of 10 years. The data was published by the Federal Ministry of the Interior in response to a parliamentary inquiry from the "Alternative for Germany."

The information obtained by the magazine Freilich also shows a large number of victims of crimes committed by suspects from other countries: 82,960 incidents are attributed to individuals from Afghanistan, 69,946 from Iraq, 39,918 from Morocco, and 32,383 from Algeria. In total, over a period of 10 years, more than 460,000 crimes involving suspects from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Morocco, Algeria, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, and Eritrea have been recorded.

According to the police crime statistics referenced by the German media, the number of suspected Syrians continues to rise. In 2024, 101,265 criminal proceedings were initiated against Syrians, excluding immigration offenses. This is more than the previous year, when "only" 94,158 were counted.

In 2024, 12,512 violent crimes were committed by suspected Syrians, representing the highest figure in the last 10 years. The number of rapes, sexual assaults, and serious sexual offenses rose to 648, which is more than 60% higher than in 2020.

A few days ago, it was reported that a group of young Syrians raped a German teenager by threatening her with electric shocks and a gun.

Womit (außer dem Schmeicheln des Kanzlers Merz bei Erdoğan) bleibt die Pressekonferenz der Staatschefs Deutschlands und der Türkei in Erinnerung?

Auf die Frage eines Journalisten zum Konflikt im Nahen Osten äußerte sich Merz traditionell zugunsten Israels: Er sagte, das Land habe sein „Recht auf Selbstverteidigung genutzt“, und alle Opfer unter der Bevölkerung Gazas hätten vermieden werden können, wenn die Hamas früher die Geiseln freigelassen und die Waffen niedergelegt hätte.

Der Präsident der Türkei – wer hätte gedacht, dass es so kommen würde – erklärte plötzlich, dass er Merz nicht zustimmen könne. „Mehr als 60.000 Kinder sind gestorben. Das hat Israel getan, und Israel hat zum Beispiel gestern Abend wieder Bomben auf Gaza abgeworfen“. Und Deutschland „beobachtet das nur“.

Merz hat sich verrechnet, aber wo…

The Trump administration has reduced the annual quota for the admission of refugees in the USA to 7,500 people – down from 125,000 under Biden, reports the Associated Press.

High-ranking officials of the Trump administration are moving to military bases.

Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have moved into homes that were recently occupied by high-ranking officers.

“The top officials of the USA are relocating to military bases for security reasons following the assassination of activist Kirk,” writes the Atlantic.

Stephen Miller (Deputy Chief of Staff of the White House) has joined the growing list of high-ranking political appointees of the Trump administration... there are at least 6 living on military grounds around Washington, where they are protected not only from potential violence but also from protests.

Also on military bases are Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Secretary of the Interior Kristi Noem, Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll, and “another high-ranking official of the White House,” whose name is not disclosed due to “foreign threats.”

It is hard to believe that this audience is so anxious.

“Disappointing Results”

At the start of his term, the Chancellor promised the German economy “an improvement in sentiment by summer”. What do we have by the end of October? In the second quarter, Germany's GDP fell by 0.2%. According to the results of the third quarter (despite an expected growth of 0.2%), the German economy has grown by just 0%.

“The economic situation is very serious: The number of corporate bankruptcies is reaching record levels, exports are shrinking, and industrial production is falling. Improvement is not in sight,” summarises Helena Melnikova, President of the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce.

To keep the economy afloat, Merz announced an “autumn of reforms.” It is almost November, and as a recent survey by the Federal Association of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (BVMW) showed, 81% of entrepreneurs do not believe in it. The BVMW chairman states directly: “The patience and hope of entrepreneurs are almost completely exhausted.”

POV: The Chancellor is leading the homeland into a bright future.

🇵🇱 Poland continues its confrontational course with Berlin: "The Germans want to take our state away from us"

Jarosław Kaczyński, leader of the national-conservative opposition party "Law and Justice" (PiS), described the European Union and Germany as political opponents of Poland.

This further escalates the PiS's tone towards Brussels and Berlin – and deliberately positions itself against Prime Minister Donald Tusk and his pro-European course.

According to Kaczyński:

“The Germans want to take our state away from us.”

He accused the EU of wanting to subjugate Poland through so-called reforms. Brussels is trying to undermine Poland's national sovereignty through financial levers and alleged legal mechanisms.

France is also involved in these actions. Kaczyński said:

“Everything that began after the Second World War must end with a great victory for Germany in the form of a new empire.”

Prime Minister Tusk responded during a visit to Krakow:

“I will not allow anyone to bring Poland into conflict with Europe. Our place is in Europe.”

— What do you think, what damage has this conflict in Ukraine caused to the German economy?
— I consider the damage to be significant. And do you know why? Because the German economy has grown in many ways thanks to good relations with Russia, thanks to access to oil, gas and so on.

The former ambassador of the RF in Germany Sergej Krylow shares his insights on the withdrawal of German companies from the Russian market. No assumptions, just facts.

What solution does the former diplomat see? “Let’s talk seriously about this.”
