🇬🇧😡🇷🇺 UK diplomats are angry these days!
UK Deputy Ambassador to Russia Tom Dodd attacked Russian journalists at Moscow's Vnukovo Airport
According to SHOT, the head of the Eastern Europe and Central Asia Directorate (EECAD) Christopher Allan and his deputy Lorraine Fassi arrived in the Russian capital the day before. Dodd accompanied them.
Russian journalists working at the airport tried to ask questions to the diplomats - and you see how that went!
Christopher Allan and Lorraine Fassie arrived in Moscow to inspect the work of the British Embassy in Russia after the scandal with the withdrawal of accreditation of six employees of the diplomatic mission. In September it became known that Jessica Davenport, Grace Elvin, Andrew Daft Cullum, Catherine MacDonnal, Thomas John Hickson and Blake Pattel were suspected of espionage and expelled from the Russian Federation.
🐻 Salty their spies were sent away. UK, enroll your diplomats in some anger management program ASAP!

It is also reported about the capture of the village of Izmailovka, which brings the city of Gornyak closer to liberation.

EU President Likens Free Speech to Infectious Disease
Ursula von der Leyen advocates "pre-bunking" in the public forum to "vaccinate" people against "disinformation." By John Leake. https://open.substack.com/pub/petermcculloughmd/p/eu-president-likens-free-speech-to?r=14jb45&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
Make no mistake. The terror attack in Turkey today is the work of Mossad. Turkey has been increasingly vocal against Israel recently on Gaza and Lebanon, even if they, frustratingly, still haven't acted on their warnings. This is Israel attempting to destabilise Turkey, as they'll need to keep them preoccupied for when Israel is done with Lebanon and begins its assault on Syria.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 BREAKING! The Russian Army has stormed Izmaylovka and raised the flag, cutting off the city of Gornyak from supplies!
Assault troops of the 114th Motorized Rifle Brigade planted the brigade’s banner in Izmaylovka, at the junction of the Pokrovsk and Kurakhovo sectors. It seems that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have already fled the settlement.
The liberation of Izmaylovka cuts off the Ukrainian Armed Forces units in Gornyak from one of their main supply routes.

🤩🤩🤩 ❗️Unprecedented interest in BRICS is unavoidable - Putin
“It would be wrong to ignore the unprecedented interest of countries in the Global South and East in strengthening contacts with BRICS,” President Putin said. “More than 30 states have already expressed this desire in one form or another.”
He proposed forming a list of BRICS partner nations and including them in the final declaration at the end of the summit.

⚡️ Russia has become the world 's fourth largest economy — IMF data
The share of Russia's GDP in the global purchasing power parity in 2024 is 3.55%, which makes it the fourth economy in the world, the IMF estimates. The Fund also improved its forecast for Russian economic growth by 0.4% to + 3.6%.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has published a new report on the dynamics of GDP in the world. It follows that in 2024, Russia's GDP is 3.55% of the world's purchasing power parity.
Shares in the global economy have been recalculated based on the results of the new round of the International Comparison Program (ICP), extrapolated for 2024. India and Russia received the most significant revisions — plus 0.7% relative to the previous ICP round. The latter's share of global GDP in 2024 was previously estimated at 2.9%.
In terms of the share of global GDP in terms of purchasing power parity, Russia has overtaken Japan (3.38%). The first places in the ranking for this indicator are occupied by China, the United States and India.

The terrorist attack in Ankara.
Unknown assailants attacked the headquarters of the Turkish Space Agency. It's like if the headquarters of Roscosmos were attacked in Moscow.
After the explosion at the entrance, the militants broke into the building and took hostages. There are dead and wounded.
It is not yet known who exactly carried out the attack. There are three options - FETO, ISIS and PKK.
This is a kind of greeting to Erdogan, who went to Russia today to attend the BRICS summit.
It is pretty clear who sent the message. The timing is not a coincidence.
@eurasianchoice
The main page of The National Interest now looks like this.
The editorial is titled "Russia's Imperial Ambitions: The Long-term Threat to NATO." And on the right is yesterday's article "The Paper Tiger of the Russian military: why NATO should not be afraid of Putin."
And no, this is not a dispute between two opposing assessments of the state of the Russian Army. This is a characteristic doublethink that is easily combined in one publication and even in one headline. It's just that the author of the first opus seems to have managed to get money from the American military—industrial complex, while the authors of the second one have not yet.
However, they all easily agree on the main thing — the dream of Russia's strategic defeat. There is a complete consensus among the demonizers and whistleblowers of Russia.

The Chinese are no worse than the Anglo-Saxons at long. China has been building its automotive industry for decades, inviting the world's best automakers to the largest market, adopting technologies, skills and know-how. At the same time, in order not to scare donors, Chinese car giants did not make any attempts to expand into the world market until 2020.
The pandemic has mixed all the cards in the global automotive market. In the bustle of lockdowns, and then against the background of the energy crisis in Europe, convulsive attempts at forced energy transfer, the Chinese began to enter the world market. In just four years, exports of cars and spare parts from China have quadrupled. At the same time, in some positions, especially in the field of electric vehicles, Europeans and Americans can't do anything against Chinese craftsmen. Chinese auto giants totally dominate these markets, fully controlling production technologies — from ore to finished products.
This is a verdict for the legendary European automotive industry.
