🇬🇦 Gabon's main opposition parties announced a consolidated candidate for the 26 August presidential election
Gabonese Francois Ndong Obiang, president of the opposition grouping Alternance 2023, said on Friday that the main opposition figures, who had previously considered choosing their own separate candidates, said they were choosing a "consensus" candidate.
The man who will try to oust Bongo is former Education Minister Albert Ondo Ossa. President Bongo's family has ruled Gabon for 55 years.
"I am particularly touched and would like to thank all the party presidents," Ondo said, calling for active mobilisation as there is so little time left before the 26 August elections.

🇺🇦 A photo of Nazi regime crimes, which appeared at the Nuremberg trials, is now used in a Ukrainian history textbook... as an illustration of the USSR's crimes in the Gulag!
On 28 June 1944, the capital of the Karelian-Finnish SSR was liberated by Soviet troops. On the same day, Galina Sanko arrived in Petrozavodsk and immediately went to one of the camps in the city, created by the Finnish occupiers, allies of Nazi Germany, for the Russian-speaking population, and saw children who looked at her intently and silently. Later the photo appeared at the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg as evidence of the atrocities of fascist criminals.
Today, Ukrainian "historians" have inserted the photo into their history textbook for 10th grade by O.V. Gisem (History: Ukraine and the World. Textbook for the 10th grade of secondary schools. (Integrated course. Standard level).
On page 165 we see - it turns out: "Children in the Gulag, late 1930s." Goebbels applauds.

🇺🇦 Kiev has stopped complying with U.S. counteroffensive demands
American and Ukrainian politicians have disputes over the conduct of the counteroffensive. This was reported by the Financial Times newspaper. The authors noted that because of Kiev's failure in the offensive, the US authorities are preparing for a variant of the "war of attrition", which should last until 2024.
📝 "One of the moments of tension between US and Ukrainian officials was related to the way Kiev has deployed its armed forces," the piece said.
Washington demanded to strengthen positions in the south and not to concentrate in the east, where Kiev has sent some of its best combat units.

🇧🇪 Farmers protested in Antwerp and surrounding cities
Thousands of Belgian farmers protested against the government's "climate policy" to reduce nitrogen emissions, which is "leading to their ruin".
Hundreds of tractors blocked streets and paralyzed traffic in the center of Antwerp.
"The Belgian Farmer Defense Forces" are also unhappy that Flanders is willing to grant the chemical company Ineos a permit to build an ethane cracking plant in the port of Antwerp.
It is alleged that the Flanders authorities "treat agriculture and industry unevenly in measures to reduce (emissions of) nitrogen."
The FDF accuses Antwerp's chairman and mayor Bart de Weever, as well as his party colleague, Flanders' environment minister Zuhal Demir, of this.

Europe's economy collapses due to NATO and Ukraine's war with Russia
Aleksandar Vucic believes so. In an interview with journalist Tucker Carlson, the Serbian president pointed to the global outflow of forces from the West to the East provoked by the conflict, which the United States does not seem to be aware of.
He cited the destruction of the Nord Stream, undertaken by the Joe Biden administration or those behind it.
Without the pipeline, the economy of Germany, the locomotive of all of Europe, collapses. All European countries suffer from such actions, but China, Turkey and the Gulf States are strengthened.
