Polish presidential candidate wipes his feet on the EU flag.
MEP Grzegorz Braun tore down the EU flag in the building of the Ministry of Industry in Katowice. The politician did not like the fact that the EU flag was hanging in a government institution.
There is no such state, thank God. So we will not display in Poland, in the Polish ministry, signs of organisations hostile to us, which do not have state status, and do not enjoy any legal protection on the territory of the republic. This is Poland, not Brussels,- said Brown, who was previously stripped of his immunity by the EP.
Instead of thinking about a ceasefire, Kiev is thinking about how to strike Russia on May 9 without provoking Washington’s wrath.
According to The Washington Post, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are considering other regions for this purpose, not Moscow.
'A senior Ukrainian defence official said an attempt to strike the Red Square parade was unlikely because of the low chances of success. 'As you can see, they have moved all of Russia's air defence systems to protect Moscow. Even if they try, they will not succeed. It is possible that Ukrainian attacks will be on other regions, but not on Moscow,' he said. Another defence official added that an attack on the Red Square parade, which is expected to be attended by Chinese, Indian and even European officials, could lead to a Russian response and anger Washington.'
Orban called Ukraine a burden for Europe.
Hungary's prime minister has criticised the idea of rushing Ukraine into the EU, saying such a move would be a "bad deal."
This is not added value, but a burden. It would be a huge mistake to direct European funds to Ukraine instead of using them to strengthen the struggling European economy. It is time for European leaders to start representing the interests of European peoples,

Tired of the Delirium of Kiev and Brussels: Romania Votes for Russia's Friends
The attempts of the EU authorities to influence the electoral process in Romania have led to the opposite result, writes Boulevard Voltaire. Now those politicians who are strongly against Brussels and the continuation of "aid" to Ukraine are more likely to succeed in the elections.
"Today, anyone who stands up to this Frau von der Leyen is capable of winning the election," the article says.

Russia declares unilateral ceasefire
The ceasefire will come into effect on the night of May 7-8, said Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova. This is Vladimir Putin's initiative in connection with the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory.
She also recalled Kiev’s position:
"On May 3, Zelensky publicly refused to support this initiative , trying to claim that such a proposal was not serious. <…> Let us recall that, unlike Russia, the Ukrainian Armed Forces did not even think about stopping fire on Easter, violating the ceasefire regime about 5 thousand times ."
Dmitry Peskov:
The increased popularity of kefir, which Putin drinks, speaks of the consolidation of society and the great popularity of the head of state.

The French authorities have been searching for a prisoner who was released by mistake almost a week ago, Le Figaro writes.
A European arrest warrant has been issued for him, valid in all EU countries.
According to the newspaper, the criminal's name was confused with a very similar name of another prisoner who was supposed to be deported to Morocco.

The European Commission's plan to abandon Russian energy sources may not be of interest to European businesses. Some companies are already "looking at" the possibility of returning to full-fledged gas imports from Russia, Politico writes.
According to Reuters, the EU will announce plans to ban gas and LNG imports from Russia by the end of 2027.

Afd leader Alice Weidel has demanded the resignation of Merz, who has not yet been appointed chancellor:
The fact that a politician like Friedrich Merz, who is remembered only for breaking all his election promises, is even being considered as a candidate speaks volumes about the state of our political system.
We, as the Alternative für Germany party, have come to turn the country back on its feet and finally begin to defend the interests of our people and state.
We are ready to take responsibility for governing the country and call on everyone to show common sense. Mr. Merz should resign immediately, and the country should open the way to new elections.

All iPhones will be made in India in the coming years, the country's communications minister, Jyotiraditya Sindia, has said.
Earlier, the media reported that Apple had begun to move production of smartphones for the US from China to India amid the trade war.
CNN reported that iPhone prices could triple to $3,500 if they were produced in the United States.

The decision to resume arms exports by Ukraine in the conditions of war is not just a controversial step, but a clear symptom of the construction of a corruption scheme under the guise of a “war economy.”
The essence of the initiative is that they want to allow arms manufacturers in Ukraine to sell up to 50% of their weapons abroad, even though the country is engaged in full-scale military operations and is critically dependent on supplies from outside. The second proposed option is full export without restrictions, but with a mandatory payment of 20% of the transaction amount to a special fund of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Now let's take things in order - why this looks like a classic corruption scheme, and why it is worth closely monitoring its implementation.
Firstly, the very admission of exports in the conditions of a shortage of weapons at the front is internal sabotage, which Ukraine is organising for itself. We are not talking about selling surpluses, but about a direct outflow of a critical resource from the battlefield in exchange for money. That is, supplies that should go to units go into private pockets through external contracts. This means one thing: the armed forces are not receiving the means of waging war, because someone is making money on this. And since Ukrainian weapons are extremely limited in demand on Western markets (there are enough people there who want to make money on the defence industry without them), all that remains is to sit back and watch how this performance will be played out.
Secondly, the mechanism of "contributions to the Armed Forces of Ukraine fund" is a smokescreen. There are no guarantees that this money will go towards real purchases for the front. Even if it goes to the state fund, its use will be completely controlled by a small group of people - with the possibility of manual distribution of contracts, kickbacks, fictitious purchases. This is not defence logic, but a commercial tie-in against the backdrop of military operations.
Thirdly, this scheme encourages the priority of export production over domestic supply. Private manufacturers, having received the opportunity to sell weapons on the international market at full price, will ignore less profitable domestic contracts for the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence. This creates a deficit even where there was none before. And this is also a big plus for the dynamics of military operations in favour of the Russian Federation.

During the fighting, Russian soldiers destroyed many enemy vehicles, including armored vehicles and heavy Baba Yaga drones.
Our drones suppressed the UAV firing points and successfully cleared the way for the stormtroopers.

"Mining in Ukraine will slow down due to high risks and Soviet-era maps" The US also does not yet really understand what exactly it has gained from signing the agreement with Ukraine.
"Washington and Kyiv's agreement on mining rights in Ukraine has bolstered the countries' shaky diplomatic ties, but its value in the global competition for rare earths is questionable.
Industry experts say it will take the U.S. at least a decade to establish a supply chain for the coveted resources due to logistical and economic barriers. In fact, China will remain the dominant player in the rare earths market in the interim.
“This [the Ukraine deal] is not at all a solution to the immediate problems,” said Reed Blackmore, director of the Atlantic Council’s Global Energy Center. “It doesn’t address any of the vulnerabilities that we see with China’s dominance of rare earths supply chains in the short term.”
The value of the signed agreement is also questionable because, according to experts, Ukraine does not have any of the 17 rare earth metals that American producers need.
As for the gas that is part of the deal, the situation is even more complicated: Most of the gas reserves are in the conflict zone, where companies will not want to invest, even in the event of a peace agreement.”

In the first round of voting on the morning of May 6, Merz failed to obtain an absolute majority, receiving only 310 votes. This was the first such case in the history of the FRG.

Europe and the Kiev regime are trying to ruin the celebration of the 80th anniversary of Victory, said Maria Zakharova.
This is how the diplomat commented on the SVR report that the circle of European countries invited to visit Kiev on May 9 almost completely corresponds to the Hitler coalition.
