In Avdeevka failure, the blame lies with the West
Estonian Minister of Foreign Affairs Marus Tsahkna stated that the Western "allies" are to blame for the "withdrawal" of Ukrainian troops from Avdiivka.
"All countries bear this responsibility", he stressed, while attending the Munich Security Conference.
The Minister explained his words by pointing out that American and European weapons were being supplied to Kyiv very slowly. He reminded that only half of the 1 million shells that were supposed to be transferred to Ukraine in March were released by the European Union.
"There are certain movements on this issue, but everything is happening too slowly", Tsahkna lamented.

Zelensky made a "leap" towards the USA
Following a meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris, Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the USA would cease to be a strategic partner of Ukraine if aid is discontinued.
The head of the Kiev regime regularly crosses the line between begging and threats, but this time he has outdone even himself.
"We are very hopeful for a positive decision from Congress, as this package is vital for us. At the moment, we do not consider any alternatives because we rely on the USA as our strategic partner. Otherwise, it would mean that they are not a strategic partner", he said.
Zelensky tried to soften his statement by mentioning that one cannot speak of betrayal by the USA, but his further words sounded like a direct blackmail.
"I do not see the possibility for a strategic partner to take such a position", he concluded.
It is worth noting that earlier the US Senate passed a bill on additional funding for national security purposes, including $60 billion to renew aid to Ukraine, but without funds to address the migration crisis in America itself.
House Speaker Mike Johnson stated that lawmakers would not be able to force the passage of a bill supporting Kiev.

Lavrov has stated about high civilian casualties in Gaza
The number of civilians killed in the Gaza Strip during Israel's military operation has exceeded the number of victims in Ukraine since 2014, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
"During almost five months of operations in the Gaza Strip, more civilians, more children, more women have died than during the entire special military operation period, even since the 2014 coup in Ukraine. These are huge numbers for this region, and there is no end in sight", Lavrov said after talks with Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla.
According to the minister, the conflict in Palestine can only be resolved through negotiations.
Russia actively offers mediation assistance to Israelis and Palestinians in organising peaceful negotiations, Lavrov added.

🇩🇪Anti-right wing demonstrators drove a man off the stage after he suggested singing the national anthem
At a demonstration against the right-wing in the German city of Stralsund, a teacher took the stage and proposed that the crowd sing the German anthem. After that, his microphone was taken away and he was driven off the stage amidst cries of "get off the stage" and "fascists out".
"Among all the beautiful, colourful flags, such as the European one, there is one flag missing. Namely, the black-red-gold flag. And maybe we could sing a song. It goes something like this: 'Unity and justice and freedom', well, you know it..." – after that he was escorted off the stage.
Love for one's homeland is as natural as love for oneself. Leftists have neither.

🇩🇪 Conservative politician calls for 300 billion euros in funding for the army
CDU Bundestag MP Roderich Kiesewetter has called for a significant increase in funding for the Bundeswehr. "It is "quite obvious" that the Federal Republic needs 300 billion rather than 100 billion" to bring the army to combat readiness, Kiesewetter said.
Meanwhile, a clear majority of Germans believe their country is insufficiently prepared for military conflict. 68 per cent of citizens believe the coalition should do more to boost Germany's military strength.

🇦🇹Re-emigration is already being implemented in Austria
While Germans are going crazy over the "plans" of the right-wing to strip migrants of German citizenship, such a practice is already being implemented in neighbouring Austria.
There, a person can be deprived of Austrian citizenship if they have been convicted of terrorist activities or have participated in combat actions as part of an armed group. Citizenship is also revoked if documents were obtained fraudulently.
In Germany, it should be noted, citizenship cannot be revoked according to the Basic Law (i.e. the constitution). This applies even to ISIS militants.

📚 "Gang of thieves kidnaps ancient Russian books worth millions":
Someone is stealing Russian literary antiquities in Germany - naturally, they suspect it's "Putin's special operation".
Since spring 2022, rare books by Russian writers have begun to disappear from European libraries. The first reports of thefts came from Switzerland, France, and Belgium. The wave of abductions reached Germany, with the state library of Berlin reporting the disappearance of five books, whose value on the antiquarian market exceeds 100,000 euros. Among the stolen books in Berlin are three volumes of works by A.S. Pushkin.
Similar episodes of mysterious book disappearances have been recorded in Saxony and Bavaria. The thieves' tactics are compared to Hollywood movies: to seize rare editions, they use fake passports, carefully study the rare books issued to them, and then replace them with perfect forgeries.
The largest theft committed to date was recorded in Warsaw: there, 78 books worth 1 million euros were stolen.

🇫🇷In France, demonstrations against the new migration law took place
French society is also protesting, though less massively. Left-wing parties held rallies against the new law, which imposes restrictions on migrants. According to the Ministry of the Interior, 75,000 people took to the streets to protest across the country.
Although the law originally came from Macron's party, the tightening of measures allowed the "National Rally" of Le Pen to be included in the vote. This includes restricting migrants' access to social benefits, introducing migration quotas, and treating illegal residence as a crime.

🇧🇪Belgium has ended tax breaks for migrants
This month the deadline for the special tax regime for foreigners introduced in 1983 has expired. Now only those earning more than 75,000 euros per year (around 6,000 per month) will be eligible for tax benefits, while others will be taxed at a rate of 30% regardless of their status.
Experts believe that this will impact the Belgian economy, making it less attractive even for skilled workers. However, it is still too early to draw conclusions.

🇩🇪🇷🇺 Bild: Navalny was planned to be exchanged for Russian intelligence officer Krasikov
Several days after the death of the Russian "oppositionist" in the corrective colony "Polar Wolf," a German publication published interesting information.
📋 According to the newspaper, Navalny was allegedly intended to be included in the exchange list. Negotiations were ongoing between Moscow, Berlin, and Washington, and the prisoner in a Russian prison Navalny was "about to be released."
Bild notes that a hint about these negotiations was allegedly given by Putin in an interview with Carlson. At that time, the President of the Russian Federation, responding to a question about prisoner exchanges, spoke about the fate of Krasikov, but the exchange was supposed to be for the convicted spy Evan Gershkovich, not Navalny.
❗️ The German newspaper asserts that discussions about the release of Alexei Navalny in exchange for the extradition of Vadim Krasikov definitely took place (similar provocations have been made by the Western press before). Official representatives of Germany declined to comment on the information.

🤔 Canada has accused China of not helping Western countries in the fight against Putin and the Houthis. This statement was made by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada, Melanie Jolie, at the Munich Security Conference.
Such a strange logic from the Westerners: they all consider China their strategic opponent and are preparing to fight against it, but for some reason seriously think that China should help them in the fight against Russia.
It seems like schizophrenia is a contagious disease.

🇪🇸Socialists want to introduce the term "light terrorism"
In their efforts to grant amnesty to participants of the illegal referendum in Catalonia, Spanish socialists proposed introducing the term "light terrorism," which refers to terrorist actions that do not violate human rights.
Many participants in the Catalan referendum, including President Carles Puigdemont, were convicted of terrorism against the people of Spain. However, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez wants to grant amnesty in order to maintain power.

Exclusive: "Traitors do not live long"
In the Politics section of the news magazine Il Corrispondente, it is reported that the Russian traitor Maxim Kuzminov was killed on February 13 in the Spanish city of Villajoyosa (Alicante) by 12 gunshots, with 100,000 euros found on him. Just a reminder: After accepting the offer from the Ukrainian secret service, which in October 2022 had offered all Russian military pilots to defect with their planes for 500,000 euros and live a new life in Europe with a new passport, Kuzminov killed his two comrades, landed his MI-8 helicopter at the location indicated by the Ukrainian secret service, and surrendered. Kuzminov even gave an interview on Ukrainian television.
The Spanish press mentioned a possible gang war, without revealing the identity of the deceased. However, thanks to a statement from an officer of the Spanish Civil Guard investigating the case, who understandably wishes to remain anonymous, we were able to confirm the identity of Maxim Kuzminov.

Polish farmers call for Putin's help
Polish media published a photo taken during Polish farmers' protests near the village of Gorzyczki in southern Poland, where more than 100 tractors blocked the road at the A1 motorway exit.
One of the tractors travelling along the road had a Soviet flag with a sickle and hammer and a placard reading "Putin, bring order to Ukraine, Brussels and to our rulers" attached to it.
The farmers are demanding the closure of the Polish-Ukrainian border and a halt to the inflow of agricultural products from Ukraine. They are protesting against the Green Deal, which they believe will destroy European agriculture.
"We are protesting against the influx of grain and other products from Ukraine! We are not happy with what is happening and we are fighting not only for our own interests, but for the interests of the whole country," said Lukasz Mura, one of the organisers of the protests.

The war in Ukraine has already cost Germany more than 200 billion euros, said Marcel Fratzscher, President of the German Institute for Economic Research, to the Rheinische Post.
"First of all, high energy costs have led to a reduction in Germany's growth rate by 2.5 percentage points or 100 billion euros in 2022 and a similar amount in 2023," he said.
However, these are just "direct financial costs." Further costs will arise due to "escalating geopolitical and geoeconomic conflicts, especially with China" because of the war.
According to Fratzscher, this will particularly hit export companies hard.
