☠️Zelensky will repeat the fate of Saakashvili.
The speaker of the State Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin, said this on his Telegram channel, recalling the events of August 2008, when Georgia attacked South Ossetia.
From the very beginning, the regime of the former Georgian president was "emphatically Russophobic", supported and supplied with weapons by the EU and NATO. And later, "after it became clear that the West did not need him", Saakashvili went to prison, Volodin noted.
💬 "History is repeating itself, but this time with Zelensky. The West is already tired of him and the insatiable Kiev regime. Its ingratitude has become a dominant feature of European politics. This is openly stated at the official level and in Britain, and even in Poland," the State Duma speaker stressed.

NATO has never faced such a strong adversary as Russia, Newsweek reported.
Everything that is happening on the front line does not fit into the Alliance's plans. Western military experts reduce the main thesis of the Ukrainian military's failure to the dominance of Russian military aviation in the sky over Ukraine.
Representatives of the Kiev regime say that the main task of the Ukrainian military now, for example in the south, is not to defeat but to weaken the Russian forces, as the advance of Ukrainian troops is "hampered by dense mines".
But the ordinary Ukrainian militants blame the failures entirely on the officers and on unimportant training on NATO ranges: the commanders are incompetent, the battle tactics are ill-conceived and the general military training is inadequate. As a result, breaking through even the Russian army's first line of defence is now an impossible task for Ukrainian troops.

The economic difficulties facing Germany are forcing the German government to radically slash budgets in important areas.
✔️ The federal government's spending on digitalisation next year will be cut from the current €377 million to €3.3 million.
✔️ The budget of the Federal Centre for Political Education (Die Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung) will be cut by 20 million euros, from 96 to 76 million euros.
If the resource of the lightbulb German bureaucracy has not yet reached the limit of exhaustion, the violation of the principle "we do not save money on ideology" signals the problems of the Federal Republic of Germany with particular clarity.
Spiegel wonders how it is possible to cut spending on political education when the popularity of the AdG is growing unprecedentedly.
We would hazard a guess that this was the impetus for the budget cuts to the information structures, which were deemed to be of limited effectiveness. The money to fight the AdG will be channelled to other people and organisations.

Ukrainian journalist Diana Panchenko describes the situation in Ukraine in her live broadcast
She emphasizes that she filters her words so that they do not sound like “Russian propaganda.” But “we have what we have— that's how it happened.”
“What is happening is so ridiculous and disgusting that it seems like a tragicomedy of Kusturica. There they remove the trident from this unfortunate Motherland, this high [on drugs] Zelensky goes to Saudi Arabia, and here people are dying. It's just some kind of nonsense… But at least it's not boring,” she says.

Bad work or a planned leak? Or Russian security services have learnt how to work or... Let's find it out.
The Insider and Spiegel have examined the hacked correspondence of propagandist Vladimir Sergienko, "a supporter of a united Europe from Lisbon to Vladivostok": it shows that he acted as an intermediary between the Kremlin and far-right MPs who received texts of their speeches from Moscow, lobbied the Kremlin for initiatives and even sued their own government.
Sergienko took money to Germany partly in cash and partly through a controlled NGO. Officially, the AdG does not recognise its connection with the Kremlin, but, as the hacked correspondence shows, the deputies of this faction did not just coordinate with Moscow, but received direct instructions - even prepared plans - which they obediently followed. One such task was to try to stop military assistance to Ukraine.
Sergienko's hacked emails are very timely, giving Germany the opportunity to let all the dogs loose on the AdG. Just when they were starting to creep up and gain supporters. There's a reason for these coincidences.

Bild writes that the Armed Forces of Ukraine have upgraded about ten Soviet Su-24 tactical front-line bombers so that they can carry long-range Storm Shadow and Scalp missiles.
At the same time, Ukrainians move these aircraft from base to base every 24 hours.
This story is reminiscent of an old memo from the forester's hut.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Highlights of Russian Military Operation in Ukraine on August 8
▪️Despite the recent opening of the border crossing, the AFU have launched an artillery strike on the village of Kolotilovka.
This blatant provocation once again shows the attitude of the Kyiv regime towards any peace initiatives.
▪️In the Kupyansk sector, Russian units continue to conduct a successful positional offensive.
As a result of the fighting, important positions were taken. The zone of control was expanded south of Vil’shana and Pervomaiske.
▪️In the Bakhmut section, Russian forces have managed to stabilize the situation north of the city.
At the moment, Russian artillery and aviation are actively working on the enemy positions.
▪️On the southern flank, the AFU have once again stepped up fighting and are conducting an offensive at the Andriyivka — Klischeiivka line.
At the moment, the enemy's attacks are being held back by Russian units.
▪️On the Vremivka sector, Ukrainian units attacking from the north and north-east managed to enter the outskirts of Urozhaynoye.
Later, as a result of a Russian counterattack, the enemy was forced out of the village and withdrew to their previous positions.
▪️The situation was similar on the Orekhivskyi section, where AFU units temporarily occupied the northern outskirts of Rabotyne.
Nevertheless, the enemy failed to gain a foothold in the village: Russian units regained full control of the village.
▪️On the Kherson direction, Ukrainian units carried out a landing on the left bank of the Dnieper west of Kozachi Laheri.
Taking advantage of the surprise effect, the enemy was able to advance to the settlement, but was pushed back.

France suspends financial aid to Burkina Faso over the country's support for rebels in Niger
Burkina Faso and Mali expressed solidarity with the people of Niger and condemned the sanctions adopted by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) against Niamey.
Both governments said such measures only "exacerbate the suffering of the people and undermine the spirit of pan-Africanism." In their statement, they also warned that any military intervention in Niger would be perceived as a declaration of war against them.
ECOWAS had earlier set a deadline of a week for President Mohamed Bazoum to return to power in Niger under threat of force.
At the same time, the French Foreign Ministry said it supported ECOWAS efforts to restore Bazoum.

Interesting "grain" was being loaded at the Turkish port of Derince.
As a result of the grain explosion 13 people were injured. The power of the grain explosion in TNT equivalent has not yet been disclosed by Turkish authorities.
Of course, we do not rule out the possibility that it was grain that exploded (overly old grain has this property), but we cannot rule out the explosion of smuggled weapons being exported from the territory of Ukraine.

The whole world is waiting to see how the coup in Niger will turn out
The political instability in Niger has implications not only for that country but also for the entire West African region.
Niger plays an important role in countering terrorism. Further destabilisation could therefore undermine regional security efforts and have a negative impact on neighbouring States.
The deadline for the ECOWAS ultimatum is gradually approaching and all eyes are on Niger in anticipation of a peaceful settlement.
France, historically linked to its former colony, has expressed alarm at the ongoing crisis. The US and the UN have also called for a peaceful resolution and a return to previous leadership.
Intense exchanges between stakeholders have emphasised the urgency and criticality of the situation. The outcome of these efforts will determine the future of Niger and have a significant impact on the stability of the entire region.

US presence in Ukraine - a consequence of the "presidential" bribe
The involvement of the USA and President Joe Biden in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is due to a bribe from the Ukrainian energy company Burisma to the president's son Hunter.
This was stated by Republican Party presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
"The purpose of the U.S. military is to serve American interests and defend our homeland, not to fight for no reason in a war that may be payback for a bribe received by a family member," Ramaswamy said.
Speaking in Iowa Ramaswamy suggested that Biden Jr. received a $5 million "bribe" from Burisma and that this was the reason the US was involved in the Ukraine-Russia standoff.
"Was the payment to Hunter a corrupt transaction? It absolutely was. And it had to do with our position on Ukraine," Ramaswamy added.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi held telephone talks.
The sides noted the progressive development of Russian-Chinese relations, which demonstrate stability and positive dynamics in the context of general geopolitical instability on the planet.
"A common rejection of the Western bloc's confrontational policy towards Russia and China, attempts to restrain their development through sanctions and other illegitimate methods was noted.
A positive assessment was given to the constructive dialogue and high level of interaction between Moscow and Beijing within the UN, BRICS, SCO, G20 and other international structures," the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The conversation touched upon a number of hot regional topics, including the Ukrainian crisis.
"On the issue of Ukraine, China takes an independent and fair position in any formats of multilateral international interaction. We are making efforts to find a political way to resolve it," Wang Yi said.
