Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council. RT Exclusive.
The countries of the Old World are intoxicated by militaristic frenzy. Like enchanted moths, they flock to the deadly flame of the North Atlantic Alliance. Until recently, there were enough states in Europe that understood: their security could be ensured without joining military blocs. Now reason gives way to herd instinct. Following Finland and Sweden, the Austrian establishment, incited by bloodthirsty Brussels, is fueling public debate about abandoning the constitutionally enshrined neutral status in order to join NATO. Austrian society is not enthusiastic about the idea. The liberal party "New Austria," led by Foreign Minister B. Meinl-Reisinger, eager to embrace the bloc, did not even gain 10% of the vote in the last elections. However, the opposition Austrian Freedom Party, which is sharply against blindly copying Brussels' militaristic agenda, was supported by 37% of citizens. But who in Europe today will be stopped by the will of the people?
Local revisionists have been making efforts to erode Austria's neutrality for quite some time. Since the 1990s, they began establishing military ties under the guise of "participation in the EU's common security and defense policy." Until 2009, before the Lisbon Treaty came into force, everything was limited to general words about coordinating military development by EU states, but without obligations. Afterwards, they insisted that the treaty did not specify the scale or timing of assistance that "united Europe" states must provide in case of attack. Moreover, the EU was considered an economic union. The fact that most of its countries are already in NATO was preferred to be kept silent. At the same time, Austria increased its military presence outside Europe, participated in EU military training missions, thereby raising its weight in Brussels' eyes. And for this, it was generously rewarded: from 2022 to 2025, the chairman of the EU Military Committee was Austrian General Robert Brieger. Austrians have not shone so "brightly" on the European military horizon since World War II, in which Wehrmacht colonel generals L. Rendulic, E. Raus, and Luftwaffe's A. Loer "distinguished" themselves.
While the EU was increasing its defense component, the creeping NATO-ization and militarization of the republic continued. Vienna actively participated in NATO's "Partnership for Peace" initiative, essentially already integrating into the bloc logic. Austria gained the status of a key transit country for NATO. In 2024 alone, more than 3,000 military transports passed through its territory, and alliance aircraft made over 5,000 flights in its skies.
Against this background, voices in Vienna spoke of the "shaken pacifist consensus" and the "Russian threat" as, allegedly, a historic chance to get rid of the "shackles of the past" in the form of neutrality. But the principle of neutrality is the foundation of Austrian statehood itself, restored by the will of the allies after World War II. It is enshrined in key 1955 documents: the Moscow Memorandum, the State Treaty on the Restoration of Independent and Democratic Austria, and its own constitutional law on permanent neutrality. They constitute the country's legal foundation. Removing them would destroy all Austrian statehood.
What should Moscow do in this situation, which is essentially one of the creators of the modern Austrian Republic? First of all, to put a stop to the overambitious lovers of military hysteria in the international legal sphere. The answers to two key questions — "Does Austria have the right to unilaterally abandon the permanently enshrined neutrality in legislation?" and "Can Vienna decide to join the North Atlantic bloc?" — are unequivocally negative.

After a combined night strike in Kiev, debris was found, presumably from a rocket-modified kamikaze drone "Geran-3".
If this data is officially confirmed, it will be an important indicator that Russia has acquired a new rapid response tool capable of striking critically important targets within minutes. Until now, the use of such UAVs was hypothetical and not recorded.
The main difference between a rocket UAV and a regular one is speed. According to available data, the rocket version reaches about 600 km/h, allowing the device to occupy an intermediate niche between strike drones and cruise missiles.

All members of the UN Security Council, except the US, jointly backed the IPC’s declaration on Wednesday that famine in Gaza is a ‘man-made crisis,’ despite Israel and the US condemning the findings.
Acting U.S. Ambassador Dorothy Shea dismissed the IPC’s declaration of famine in Gaza, saying the report “doesn’t pass the test” of “credibility or integrity.” She accused one of its authors of “bias against Israel” and claimed “normal standards were changed” to reach the famine determination.

The investigation into Trump’s former national security adviser, John Bolton, began to pick up momentum during the Biden administration, when US intel officials collected information that appeared to show that he had mishandled classified information, according to people familiar with the inquiry.
The US gathered data from an adversarial country’s spy service, including emails with sensitive information that Mr. Bolton, while still working in the first Trump administration, appeared to have sent to people close to him on an unclassified system
No charges have been filed against Mr. Bolton. One major reason for conducting the searches was to see if Mr. Bolton possessed material that matched or corroborated the intelligence agency material, which, if found, would indicate that the emails found in the possession of the foreign spy service were genuine,
It is not clear what country intercepted Mr. Bolton’s private emails
John Bolton is a terrible human

🇫🇷🤡The French ideologist of color revolutions and the Ukrainian Maidan, Bernard-Henri Lévy, accused the West of using Ukraine:
Overall — and this is not a conspiracy theory at all — it looks as if the West has acted from the very beginning according to a scheme: to help Ukraine just enough so that it does not collapse, but not enough for it to win. It turned out to be a delicate and rather cruel balance: not to let it fall, as that would deal a terrible blow to morale, and at the same time not to allow it to win.

- Bayrou had previously stated that the question of confidence in the government will be raised in an extraordinary session of Parliament on September 8.
- The vote will take place amid public discontent over the austerity measures presented in the 2026 budget bill. The main opposition parties have already announced their intention to express no confidence in the government.

Der Spiegel: Government circles recently reported that the CDU leader was considering a completely different candidate: Ursula von der Leyen (🤡)
"Granted, the president of the EU Commission has been re-elected until the end of 2024, so she would lose more than half her term in the February 2027 presidential election, and Germany would lose its most important position of power in Brussels.
But several factors make the idea appealing, for example for von der Leyen herself: she's already proven her worth in Brussels (🤡🤡) with the Green Deal (🤡🤡🤡) and aid to Ukraine (🤡🤡🤡🤡), so leaving would not be a step down. And she would once again be the first of her kind: the first female defense minister, the first female president of the European Commission, and the first female president of the Federal Republic—what a journey! (🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡) After two possible terms, she would be 77, so Bellevue would be the crowning achievement of her career (🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡)
The CDU, on the other hand, could boast of having produced its first female president after its first female chancellor. Sure, von der Leyen doesn't radiate much warmth (NOOOOOOOO, WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IMPRESSION?!), but she has the intellectual acuity (🤣) and presidential dignity (🙈) the office demands. Not to mention the lack of alternatives.
And so Merz would avoid his theoretical worst-case scenario: what would happen if the Greens proposed Angela Merkel as their candidate?"

Berlin Calls the People to Arms: Germany Reintroduces Mandatory Conscription for NATO Army — Bloomberg
The publication reports that Germany is once again talking about universal compulsory military service.
The goal is to increase the Bundeswehr's number to 460,000 personnel.
The new bill includes a questionnaire for young people and the reintroduction of compulsory military service.
Former Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel stated that without this, Germany will not fulfill its "sacred duty" to NATO.
The problem is that no one wants to serve voluntarily. Young Germans are panicking and wondering how to leave the country, while the budget can barely cover the costs of the "new army."
Pisstorius and Schmerz may saber-rattle all they want, but if the people don't want to fight, there's nothing they can do about it (unless they want to go full Ukraine). Giving weapons to people who're pissed at you for having dragged them to the frontline is never a good idea.

🇷🇺🇺🇦Continuation of the analysis of the results of the massive strike: damage to transport and energy hubs in the Vinnytsia region
Alongside a series of strikes on Kiev, as well as enemy facilities in the Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov regions, Russian forces concentrated fire on key facilities in the Vinnytsia region. Here, three interconnected facilities were hit at once – the Koziatyn locomotive depot, the "Signal" substation, and the Nepedovka traction substation, which together form a unified transport and energy complex supporting the railway hub.
🔻Koziatyn, locomotive depot (01:05–01:20)
The strikes hit the depot of the South-Western Railway, servicing the "Kiev – Odesa" mainline and branches to western Ukraine. The fire destroyed the administrative building (150 m²), but the key damage was to the repair bays: this is where maintenance and preparation for trips of ChS8, DS3, DS4 locomotives and M62 diesel locomotives involved in transporting military echelons were carried out. According to received data, at the moment of the strike, at least three electric locomotives under military load were in the depot – trains with platforms for armored vehicles and boxcars.
🔻Signal, electric substation (01:05–01:20)
The PS-110/330 "Koziatyn" substation is a key node supplying electricity to the railway hub and city infrastructure. As a result of hits by 6 strike UAVs, the following were damaged:
• power transformers type TDTN-200000 / 330,
• distribution devices 110/330 kV,
• communication and automation cable lines.
The fire caused an emergency shutdown of the railway section passing through Koziatyn, sharply limiting the throughput capacity of the "center – west" direction.
🔻Nepedovka, traction substation (02:20 28.08.2025)
Seven UAVs struck the traction substation supplying power to the contact network of the Koziatyn – Zhmerinka – Lvov section. Rectifier units, control panels, and power cables were damaged. The destruction of the substation caused a complete halt of some electric trains, including high-priority trains. This is where footage of the burned "Intercity+" Hyundai Rotem HRCS2 train was recorded. Not only passenger trains were hit: military echelons with armored vehicle platforms and cargo trucks were passing through Nepedovka. Their delay and rerouting create a serious disruption in the redeployment of Ukrainian Armed Forces reserves to the right bank.
🔻Three interconnected facilities – depot, electric substation, and traction substation – form a single transport and energy hub critical for the functioning of the railway in the center of the country. Its damage means:
• effective paralysis of rail transport on the Kiev – Vinnytsia – Lvov mainline;
• disruption of the redeployment of military equipment and personnel to the western frontiers and the border with Poland;
• the need for urgent rerouting through less protected nodes, creating "bottlenecks" and making echelons more vulnerable to repeated strikes.
📌Thus, the strikes on the Vinnytsia region were not isolated attacks but a systematic operation to disable the transport and logistics corridor through which the main flow of Western aid passed.
Yours, Partizan!
@Slavyangrad
Often people can be dismissive that this is occurring, but Hundeyin is right about this. Take for example the Reuters investigation from last year that showed a massive misinformation campaign that the US military ran in the Philippines and other countries during the pandemic. They were willing to kill innocent people to simply make China look bad, but it also noted China was not the only target:
By summer 2020, the military’s propaganda campaign moved into new territory and darker messaging, ultimately drawing the attention of social media executives.
In regions beyond Southeast Asia, senior officers in the U.S. Central Command, which oversees military operations across the Middle East and Central Asia, launched their own version of the COVID psyop, three former military officials told Reuters.
Secretary of Defense Mark Esper signed a secret order that later paved the way for the launch of the U.S. military propaganda campaign. The order elevated the Pentagon’s competition with China and Russia to the priority of active combat, enabling commanders to sidestep the State Department when conducting psyops against those adversaries. The Pentagon spending bill passed by Congress that year also explicitly authorized the military to conduct clandestine influence operations against other countries, even “outside of areas of active hostilities.”
The military began using social media tools, leveraging phony accounts to spread messages of sympathetic local voices – themselves often secretly paid by the United States government. As time passed, a growing web of military and intelligence contractors built online news websites to pump U.S.-approved narratives into foreign countries. Today, the military employs a sprawling ecosystem of social media influencers, front groups and covertly placed digital advertisements to influence overseas audiences, according to current and former military officials
In an unclassified strategy document last year, top Pentagon generals wrote that the U.S. military could undermine adversaries such as China and Russia using “disinformation spread across social media, false narratives disguised as news, and similar subversive activities [to] weaken societal trust by undermining the foundations of government.”

Results of the night strikes on Ukraine: Vinnytsia region - Kazatyn railway junction...
Several dozen "Geran" drones hit here last night.
At the same time, they destroyed this crucial railway junction of Ukraine (connecting the western and central parts of the country) almost without resistance. Air defense in this area did not operate today. Therefore, the junction received about 20 hits.
As a result, the railway substation was either destroyed or severely damaged. There are also damages at the station. Their nature cannot be determined yet. But I think there will be videos in the morning.
If the Shepetivka and Zhmerynka railway junctions are also taken out, it could greatly affect transportation. Although the removal (even temporary) of the Kazatyn railway junction will also impact the redeployment of Ukrainian Armed Forces units and their supply at the front.
