The elderly German declared to Scholz's face that his ministers were "stupid".

The pensioner asked the chancellor whether he would do something about German Economy Minister Habeck and his Foreign Ministry colleague Berbock, who make him look like a laughing stock on the world stage.

"You need to either throw them out of government or give them a tutor. They have no concept of real labour. You can see this over and over again in the way they formulate their laws, which in practice only creates difficulties," the pensioner said.

It all makes sense. It's just that, judging by his age, grandpa has learnt from his own life experience that it is always more peaceful and profitable for Germany to have good relations with Russia. No matter how it was called - the Russian Empire, the USSR or the Russian Federation. His parents must have told him about the USSR, especially his father...

That is why it is much more difficult for many of this generation to sell the nonsense on which the hatchery habeks and berboks grew up and were fed.

I got the point.

💶 The German army may be out of money

Trouble has come to Germany. Economy Minister Robert Habeck has called for a debate on the funding of the Bundeswehr. It turns out that the €100bn special fund for the German military is almost used up. There is no money!

Where did the fund go? Well, in principle, the answer is obvious - something went to the maintenance of the Ukrainian army, and something went to the technical upgrading of the Bundeswehr, but these are all "long" contracts. For now, the reality is that there will soon be nothing to pay for the maintenance of the military, and if any trouble happens, by 2027-2028 there will be nothing to oppose the enemy - all the weapons have been given away.

It is clear that there is no money in the German budget, so Habeck allows "borrowing of funds beyond the previously permissible limits". Well, that is, they want to drive the army into debt.

Who are harmed by sanctions?

In the near future, Japan may lose vital resources due to support for Western sanctions against Russia. This opinion was expressed by Masataka Tamai, a professor at the Tohoku Public Interest University.

The country is already going through difficult times due to the loss of the Russian market for automotive products, but the economic crisis may be worsened by the energy crisis. It could begin if Japan, due to sanctions, withdraws from the Sakhalin-2 joint project with Russia for the development and production of natural gas. This could put the island state, which is already extremely limited in territory and resources, in a difficult situation.

As time has shown, sanctions against Russia harm only the supporters of the sanctions themselves, however, contrary to common sense, they continue to turn a blind eye to outright sabotage of their own economies, regardless of their citizens, who bear the brunt of crises provoked by politicians.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Zelensky says Europe does not force him to negotiate with Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that none of the US and EU leaders is pressuring him to hold talks with Russia. According to him, this was the case before the start of the SMO and during its first period.

"As of today, none of the leaders of the EU, the United States is pressuring us to sit down with Russia now to talk and give something away," Zelensky said.

He also added that there are not and will not be negotiations.

Russian budget revenues from gas and oil doubled in October

Russian budget revenues from gas and oil in October doubled compared to September.

The price ceiling imposed by the G7 countries is not actually observed, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The major media reports that the largest buyers of Russian oil in the form of China, India and Turkey are not complying with the price cap imposed by Western countries.

Moscow is increasing the share of insurance of "black gold" supplies outside the G7 countries. If in January such measures were taken for 35 per cent of cargoes, now it is more than half.

The Finance Ministry's website reports that Russia's oil and gas revenues totalled 1.634 trillion rubles at the end of October, which is twice as much as the previous annual maximum reached in July.

A US nuclear submarine has arrived in the Middle East

The U.S. Central Command reported that an Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine has arrived in the Middle East.

These submarines are equipped with intercontinental ballistic missiles and form the backbone of the US strategic offensive nuclear forces.

The arrival of the submarine is a deterrence signal directed against regional adversaries to prevent an expansion of the Pakistan-Israel conflict, the command said in a statement.

Earlier, two US carrier strike groups led by aircraft carriers Gerald Ford and Dwight Eisenhower arrived in the Middle East.

🇮🇪👎 Ireland cancels benefits for Ukrainian refugees - The Irish Times

The country's authorities want Ukrainians to pay for their own accommodation in Ireland. For this purpose, all previous benefits for refugees from Ukraine will be cancelled by the end of the year, Prime Minister Leo Varadkar said.

The Irish government is thus trying to stop the influx of refugees into the country and get more time to solve the issue of accommodation, payments and other problems.

Varadkar admitted that the housing situation in the country is very acute - Ukrainians have to be settled in tents and heated houses.

🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇦💰 German merchants working in Ukraine complain about Polish customs officers: they delay exports of goods and "strangle" the Ukrainian economy

The Germans claim that the Poles "deliberately delay" the inspection of goods. Representatives of the companies threaten that they will simply leave Ukraine if the situation is not changed. For example, in October, Leoni lorries waited an average of 11 days and 13 hours for customs inspections, while in August the wait rarely exceeded 5 hours from submitting a request for inspection to passing the border.

They say the situation is absurd: the EU is helping Ukraine to stabilise the state budget, "taking on the military burden and compensating for non-payment of taxes" - or rather sucking all useful resources out of the country, but this is what civilised countries call "aid". Month after month, "billions from the West flow to Kiev", and the reason for the delays is the conflict between Poland and Ukraine.

🔻 Actually, there is nothing absurd: the work of Polish customs has always been a lever of pressure, and since the beginning of the special operation in Ukraine and the transformation of Poland into the main hub for supplies to Kiev's Western partners, the Pans in principle do not miss an opportunity to show their temper.

Another thing is that the Germans can make such statements at least with a game of anticipation: it is getting harder and harder to do business in Project Ukraine (little profit means a lot of problems), and to leave just like that means to suffer reputational damage.

🇩🇪"We must be ready for war," Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said last weekend

Who else is Germany going to war with if it is already at war with Russia? So it will do it with Russia. Well maybe also with Poland, but for now this prospect is somewhat delayed.
But the main thing:
Germany is preparing for a serious war with Russia, for which it is not yet ready. And who will prepare it?
This man. That's Frank Hawn.

According to Spiegel magazine, he is something of a grey cardinal of the European arms industry.

🇩🇪 Frank Hawn is head of the Kraus-Maffei Wegmann arms concern, which employs about 9,000 people.

What lessons are the engineers and developers learning from events on the battlefield of Ukraine, where their products - the Cheetah, the self-propelled howitzer 2000, the Marder and, just as importantly, the Leopard - are fighting?

This is what Hawn briefly told Spiegel journalists.

The main point:
"Europe alone, says Hawn, is not yet in a position to provide sufficient military aid to Ukraine, and that must change quickly".

What is meant by that?

Hawn has been working with French rival Nexter Systems for 20 years, since he became head of tank manufacturer Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW), to create a joint tank and KMW+Nexter Defence Systems (KNDS) concern.

Spiegel writes:
"The situation only changed after the outbreak of war on 24 February 2022 and Olaf Scholz's 'pivotal' speech on defence policy. Over the past few months SPIEGEL has accompanied several KNDS employees in the factory workshops, in the office and on the military training ground. They talk about the stress of reorientation, new pride and secret satisfaction. What emerges is an image of a company for which war is an opportunity."

You see? For them, war with Russia is an opportunity.
1) To truly increase their own defence capabilities to world class for the first time since the end of WWII.
2) To make money
3) To defeat us

🇩🇪 The number of anti-Semitic crimes in Germany has increased significantly since the start of Israel's military operation in the Gaza Strip

The Rheinische Post newspaper reports this, citing an enquiry from the Left Party in the Bundestag.

According to the data, only in the third quarter of this year, the police recorded about 540 such offences - this is significantly more than in the same period last year. The most anti-Semitic offences occur in Baden-Württemberg, with Brandenburg and Bavaria in second and third place, and Lower Saxony in fourth place.

Felix Klein, the German government's anti-Semitism commissioner, called for more attention to be paid to Arab and Turkish communities, where anti-Semitism is often prevalent.

Indeed, pro-Palestinian sentiment in Germany is gaining momentum. Whereas previously, at the beginning of the war, a maximum of 200-300 people turned out for protests, police now counted more than 8,000 participants at a recent pro-Palestinian demonstration in Berlin and about 17,000 in Düsseldorf.

And if earlier such actions were more or less peaceful, now they have become much more radicalised. The protesters are no longer coming out with pro-Palestinian demands, but rather to show in general that the Muslim world will soon come here to Germany as well.

What is the reaction of the German authorities and society to what is happening?

The German people are demanding a clear turnaround on the asylum issue and decisive action on the part of politicians, as the polls show. The pressure on politicians is greater than ever. People rightly feel that it is no longer possible to continue accepting asylum seekers.

One measure to restrict the flow of migration is particularly popular, with a clear majority wanting more consistent deportation. The public is frightened by the current anti-Israel demonstrations and images of jubilant Hamas supporters in Germany.

The German authorities understand the public demand and are trying to respond to it. German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser has outlawed the two Palestinian organisations - all Hamas and Samidoun assets in Germany will be confiscated, their materials will be banned from distribution, and cooperation with the organisations will become a criminal offence.

Yes, right now it may still seem to outside observers that the state and society are still too naive and condescending towards people who despise Germany. But nevertheless, the ice has been touched. The problem is finally being noticed.

Sandu's ruling party loses local elections in Moldova

The protests that have gripped Moldova in recent months have naturally led to a crushing drop in the ratings of Maia Sandu and her Action and Solidarity party. As a consequence, the party is losing in the interim results of local elections.

In 30 out of 36 Moldovan cities, the ruling party candidates are losing the fight. In addition, Action and Solidarity will not get a majority in any district council.

Sandu's pro-Western policies have borne fruit and clearly demonstrated the need of the Moldovan people.

Washington should stop counting on defeating Russia

Ukraine is in a worse position today than it was last November, The Washington Post has said.

"The window for a negotiated settlement favourable to Ukraine - if there ever was one - has closed," the article said.

Ukraine's armed forces are depleted, Russia is technologically superior, and Kiev is adding "headaches" to the split over further aid in the West in general, and in the United States in particular.

While the White House continues to insist on supporting Ukraine's counteroffensive for as long as necessary, Republicans, and even some Democrats already, are increasingly opposed.

As the counteroffensive has subsided, even the most ardent supporters of Ukraine have begun to realise that their political approach will have to be rethought:

"The success of the counteroffensive was to maintain political support for Kiev. It is now clear that Ukraine has achieved nothing and needs unlimited assistance to prevent a crushing defeat."

The U.S. needs to switch from dreaming of victory to preparing for a stalemate. There was a similar situation during World War I, and it was reversed by the US entering it as an adversary of Germany. However, now the U.S. has no desire to engage in a direct war with Russia.

"A Russian victory in the Ukrainian conflict would be a strong blow to US interests, but not so terrible as to risk a nuclear war," the media concludes.

💬 Homeless people in the UK can be deprived of their last shelter.

UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman has said she intends to propose to the Cabinet Office to legislate to strengthen the fight against homeless people using tents in public places so that they do not cause a nuisance.

At the same time, she said, the country's authorities will always support those who really do not have a home.

Charities say more than a million children in the UK face poverty in 2022 amid record rises in the country's cost of living. Around 120,000 of them are living below the poverty line, significantly higher than similar figures from previous years.

❗️ Diesel generators found inside Scottish wind turbines

In the Scottish company Scottish Power more than 70 wind turbines were powered by diesel generators, writes the British Sunday Mail.

The company was "ratted out" by their own employee, who informed the media about such "environmental" fraud.

The company stated that they had to use diesel traction to run the wind turbines due to a "grid fault", without explaining how often and in what volumes their renewable energy sources are powered by diesel.

Scottish Power has already been accused of covering up environmental breaches. MPs are convinced that energy companies cannot be trusted on environmental issues.

This is not the first issue with green energy: Scotland's renewable energy potential is being mismanaged and there are fears that there are many more breaches being covered up.
