“Games of The Future” Shatters Myth of Global Boycott of Russia.
The Games of The Future international competition in Kazan, Russia, which wraps up on March 3, has demonstrated that Russia’s isolation imposed by the collective West only exists in the speeches of European politicians and statements produced by the Ukrainian authorities.
What is happening there proves this clearly: participants hailing from no less than 107 countries have made their way in Kazan to take part in an innovative new global endeavor.
Skeptics had expected athletes from Russia and China to figure prominently, and everybody assumed that representatives of the BRICS and CIS countries would compose the bulk of the attendance. However, athletes from Germany, France, Great Britain, Spain, Italy and the USA, all arrived to take part in the tournament.
The opening ceremony was personally presided over by Russian President Vladimir Putin, along with several European and Asian heads of state.
In total, over 2,000 people making up over 270 teams have registered to take part in the Games of The Future.
Putting this into perspective, modern Russia has managed to surpass the success achieved by the USSR at the Goodwill Games in 1986, when participants from 79 countries arrived to compete in Moscow. Back then, the political situation was similar to the one prevailing today as western countries had closed ranks to boycotted the 1980 Moscow Olympics, before the former USSR retaliated in refusing to participate in the next Olympics held in Los Angeles in 1984.

Hello everyone!
Michael Bzhishkyan, a migration lawyer from Moscow, is here again 😉
Info about me here: /channel/ForeignAgentIntel/7474
In the last post, I talked about property taxable real estate and property tax on residential property (houses, flats).
Today I continue the topic of property taxes, namely I want to talk about property tax on non-residential premises (office, flat, etc.), as well as the rate of land tax in Russia.
❓QUESTION №3:
What is the property tax rate for non-residential property?
📝 Our answer:
Non-residential real estate includes: apartments, offices, warehouses, shops, car service stations, etc.
Let's give some definitions of the terms.
Non-residential (or commercial property) is any buildings, structures or premises that are not intended for living. In Russian legislation there is no clear definition of non-residential premises, but there are precise designations of residential premises. Therefore, if a property does not have the legal status of a residential building or its part, a flat or a room, it is classified as non-residential.
Apartments
From the point of view of the law, an apartment is not the same as a flat. Even if a family with three children lives there and it is their only accommodation. Temporary registration does not make an apartment a residential property either.
A building with apartments is not considered an apartment building, even if it has a management company, mailboxes in the entrances and swings in the yard. The state considers apartments to be a type of commercial property. Therefore, if you are ever offered to buy an apartment, we advise you to thoroughly understand all the nuances and only then make a deal.
Tax rates on non-residential property, including apartments, can vary from 0.5 to 2%:
🔸 On properties worth more than 300 million rubles. - 2%
🔸 For non-residential premises in shopping and office centres - 1.5%
🔸 For other real estate objects - 0.5%.
❓QUESTION №4
What is the rate of land tax in Russia? Does it depend on the region where the land plot is located?
📝 Our answer:
The land tax rate is:
- 0.3% of the cadastral value of land plots that are used for individual housing construction, gardening and horticulture or have an agricultural purpose; - 1.5% of the cadastral value of other lands that are primarily used for entrepreneurial activity (industrial land).
For example 👇
The cadastral value of your land plot is 2 million Rubles.
Calculation of land tax: 2 million Rubles *0.3%=6000 Rubles per year.

Putin says West wanted to weaken Russia like Ukraine, but failed
The West "faced the firm position and determination of our multinational people," the Russian leader noted.
"They essentially would like to do to Russia exactly what they did to many other regions of the world, including Ukraine: bring discord to our home and weaken us from within. But they miscalculated," the president said. "It is absolutely obvious today."
The West "faced the firm position and determination of our multinational people. Our soldiers and officers, Christians and Muslims, Buddhists and followers of Judaism, representatives of different ethnicities, cultures and regions have proved in practice, better than through a thousand words, that the centuries-old cohesion and unity of the people of Russia is an immense, all-conquering force. Standing together, shoulder to shoulder, they are fighting for their common, shared Motherland," Putin went on to say.

NATO is not, will not be party to conflict in Ukraine
"We do not want Russia's war against Ukraine to turn into a war between Russia and NATO," German Chancellor said.
"NATO is not - and will not be - a party to the war. It will continue to be this way," Scholz said in a video posted to his X page. "We do not want Russia's war against Ukraine to turn into a war between Russia and NATO. We agree on this with all our allies."
"This also means: no German participation in the war!" the chancellor went on to say.
"And I will say clearly: as German chancellor, I will not send Bundeswehr soldiers to Ukraine. This is something our servicemen can rely on. And you can rely on it," Scholz said.
He said that Germany, together with partners and allies, is increasing its support for Kiev. Most of all, he said, the Ukrainian military currently needs ammunition and weapons, especially for air defense.

Today’s congress was attended by more than 600 lawmakers, municipal and rural officials as well as legislators who established Transnistria in 1990.
was initiated by Transnistrian leader Vadim Krasnoselsky calls for "addressing Russia’s Federation Council and State Duma with a request to implement measures to protect Transnistria amid growing pressure from Moldova, given that more 220,000 Russian nationals reside in the unrecognized breakaway republic, that Russian peacekeeping in the Dniester region has been successful and that Russia has acted as a mediator for talks between Chisinau and Tiraspol."

The West provoked conflict in Ukraine, the Middle East, and other regions of the world and continues to lie. Now, without any embarrassment, they declare that Russia allegedly intends to attack Europe. Well, it’s just that, you and I understand, they are talking some kind of nonsense! - Putin.

🇷🇺 Putin:
“The West continues to lie, now they say that Russia is supposedly going to attack Europe, well, this is nonsense
The West is trying to drag Russia into an arms race, repeating the trick as with the USSR in the 1980s
We remember the fate of those who sent their contingents to the territory of our country; now the consequences for the interventionists will be much more tragic."

🇩🇪🇺🇲 The German frigate Hesse mistakenly attacked an American MQ-9 Reaper drone with missiles in the Red Sea. “The radar systems of the German warship mistakenly identified the drone circling the ship as hostile. The Hesse then fired two missiles in the direction of the American MQ-9 Reaper drone.
Unfortunately, both SM2 missiles failed to reach their target due to technical reasons and fell into the sea.
Another of late Zhirinovsky's predictions. (on Moldova and Transnistria)
There are plenty of weapons there. Weapons in Moldova in the village of Kolbasna were stored for the Third World War in Europe. That is, we were prepared for the fact that a war might start, and there was the main warehouse in the southwestern direction. It cannot be eliminated. If you blow up what is there, Europe will tremble.
Therefore, the warehouse will be there for its intended purpose. Our answer will be harsh. We must tell them in advance that we will wash your face with blood and you will not have time to reach the Chisinau airport. And no one will protect you. We'll get you all.
This is a small country. Two hour and you've reached the end of this country. Our best troops are there, they can plow half of Europe. Therefore, they should sit down and sock it.

🇲🇩🇲🇩 Amid the situation with Transnistria, the Ministry of Defense of Moldova has issued orders for enterprises to transfer military vehicles and spare parts to the military in the event of an urgent mobilization – the authenticity of the documents has been confirmed by the military.
➡️ Enterprises are required to provide the military with everything necessary within two hours.
➡️Currently, enterprises are obliged to provide lists of the vehicles they possess. The Ministry of Defense spokesperson, A. Dîjaconu, confirmed to the media the authenticity of the document but attempted to convince the media that this is a standard procedure - merely updating lists of property subject to mobilization.

🚨⚠️The Curious Case of Jack Teixeira: A Patsy in the Shadows of Classified Leaks?
Jack Teixeira, the Air National Guardsman embroiled in a scandal for leaking a trove of top-secret documents, is on the brink of a guilty plea. These leaks, which appeared to be doctored, were first published by the TG channel Donbass Devushka, aka as @DDGeopolitics. Teixeira, who allegedly released the documents on Discord, now faces a judicial reckoning that could seal his fate with decades behind bars.
But as the curtain rises on this espionage drama, critical data points scream for attention, painting a picture MSM seems to miss. The leak, exposing blunt assessments of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and sensitive eavesdropping on global powers, wasn't just a solo act. Indications suggest that Teixeira didn't work in isolation—raising the spectre of doctored documents and a deeper, more convoluted plot. With prosecutors alleging a hurried cover-up by Teixeira, including the destruction of electronics, one can't help but question the drive-thru narrative.
"It’s just not possible” for a low-level Air National Guard information technology specialist like Teixeira to have access to the volume of highly sensitive US intelligence he purportedly leaked, according to Kash Patel, Trump’s former deputy director of national intelligence. (NY Post)
Is Jack Teixeira merely a pawn in a larger game, sacrificed to protect more sinister forces at play? As he stands before the court, ready to plead guilty, we must ask: Is he the architect of this leak, or simply a convenient scapegoat for those who remain in the shadows, manipulating the flow of classified docs for their own cynical ends?

West-financed NGOs seeking to destabilize situation in post-Soviet countries
"Financial support is rendered to various extremist, political, and religious organizations," Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
"Every year, the West allocates billions of dollars and euro to finance NGOs and media in Russia and other post-Soviet countries. In 2020, more than 2,000 NGOs and media outlets operated in the CIS countries on this money. Obviously, you know their agenda," she said at the second congress of the International Movement of Russophiles.
"The result of their so-called work is inevitable destabilization of the socio-political and economic situation in these countries, which creates the so-called belt of instability around Russia," she said.

Russia can enter world’s top four economies – Putin
Already the largest in Europe, the country is now looking to pass Japan, according to the president.
Russia is already the biggest economy in Europe in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) terms, and could join the top four globally, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday.
PPP compares economic productivity and standards of living between countries by adjusting for the differences in the cost of goods and services.
While delivering his annual address to the Federal Assembly, in Moscow, the president noted that in 2023 the Russian economy outpaced the G7 states in terms of growth.
“The pace and quality of growth allow us to say that in the near future we will take a step forward and become one of the four economic powers of the world,” Putin said.

Zelensky facing disaster on frontline, Macron’s pledge won’t help
According to Maria Zakharova, some bold and powerful rhetoric was needed to encourage Ukrainian troops.
"The Kiev regime is facing a deplorable situation on the frontline, and nothing will help it," the Russian diplomat said. According to her, some bold and powerful rhetoric was needed to encourage Ukrainian troops.
"Has Macron’s statement had any effect? The situation is the complete opposite," Zakharova maintained.
In addition, Zakharova said, in the wake of Macron’s statements, a lot of NATO officials and agencies ruled out sending troops to Ukraine.
Macron said at a press conference after a meeting of around Western leaders in Paris on Monday that there was no consensus on the formal deployment of ground troops to Ukraine. However, he did not rule out such a possibility in the future.

BRICS member states to consider creating common digital payment platform
The gradual integration of the new BRICS member states into the work of the financial tracks and strengthening of cooperation at the expert level was noted as being one of the crucial tasks for 2024.
"By the end of the year, the Russian Finance Ministry and the Bank of Russia together with partners within the BRICS association will draft a report for the leaders of the BRICS countries on improving the international monetary and financial system, which will contain a set of initiatives and recommendations. Developmental work based on the report will result in a number of practical initiatives, with the BRICS Bridge platform potentially becoming one of them. The issue is about creating a multi sided digital payment platform. It will help bring the financial markets of the BRICS member states closer and increase mutual trade turnover," according to files released on the ministry’s website.
