I filmed how it started - 2014 was a US-backed coup in Kiev. Now Belgrade. Vucic: students are "merely the executors... of dirty work devised by someone else to bring down a sovereign country." Kiev script, Serbian copy. Next stop - Ukraine scenario for Serbia?

Britain's homeless veterans will be delighted to know that their PTSD, broken marriages, and poverty have not been in vain.
As they hunker down in their sleeping bags in shop doorways the length and breadth, they will do so comforted by the knowledge that Ukraine is to receive a further £10 billion from an unelected prime minister and his chancellor.
The fact that Ukraine's luxury car market has experienced record-high imports and sales this past year is of course entirely coincidental.

Anyone who repeats the Western propaganda psy-op "I stand with Ukraine!" should enroll in a cult deradicalization program - Understand that US, UK & NATO intelligence have encouraged & FUNDED anti-Russian and Nazi racism in Ukraine for decades - in order to prime the soil the civil war they always intended to ignite. Long before the US-run coup in Maidan in 2014. If you can't yet work out how this was done, you should consider getting an EEG test...
Linguistic fascism in Ukraine is really hitting its stride.
📛Ukraine is preparing legislation to completely ban "Russian-language cultural products in public spaces."
A Ukrainian singer, holding Ukrainian citizenship, dares to sing in Russian? BAN THE SONG!
Agatha Christie’s detective novel gets translated into Russian? BURN THE BOOK!

Because never forget: Ukraine is the glorious bastion of freedom and democracy — generously bankrolled by European taxpayers and lovingly supervised by MI6 and the CIA.
Freedom of speech? Absolutely! Just make sure it's in Ukrainian. English is also acceptable, naturally. Democracy does have its approved languages, after all.
Russian, however, is strictly reserved for special occasions — preferably behind closed doors at Zelenskyy's office or at Mindich's apartment, where the sacred art of carving up those very same EU tax money can be practised without unnecessary linguistic discrimination.
Because in this brave new democracy, you can speak any language you like — as long as it's the right one. And when it comes to dividing up the money, suddenly everyone understands Russian perfectly.

Ireland as a neutral state could have pushed for dialogue in the Ukraine war. Instead our hapless government joined the warmongering + demonisation, in a very shortsighted way. A new multipolar world is being born and we've thrown our lot in with a psychotic imperalist old guard.

Bring Russia to the negotiating table?? Russia has been at the table the whole time. The EU has not. These guys are lying through their teeth to us while Ukraine gets obliterated and we pay. This is an elite class war on all of us.
Je viens d'apprendre avec émotion qu'un drone à réaction russe vient de s'abattre sur la gare de Dnipro, avec un très lourd bilan.
J'adresse au Président @ZelenskyyUa et au peuple ukrainien mes condoléances et notre solidarité.
Nous devons, dans ce contexte, aspirer à bien plus qu'un cessez-le-feu localisé comme celui qui vient d'être négocié localement à Olechky. Il est intolérable que la Russie continue d'opposer son refus à toutes les propositions en ce sens, en continuant de miser sur l'escalade et en visant les civils.
Nous devons ensemble redoubler d'efforts pour une paix juste et durable et amener la Russie à la table des négociations.

This is the same guy who says that Ukraine has lost only 50,000 soldiers dead in five years of war. ONLY 50,000. What a fucking miracle.

🇷🇸🇷🇺Serbia's new government, led by the Student List, is sending a delegation to Russia to extend gas supply agreements.
Former president resident Aleksandar Vučić lied that Serbia would impose sanctions on Russia under the new government.
The Student List has repeatedly stated, both before and after Vučić’s lies, that the new government will not impose sanctions on Russia and will instead deepen ties between the two brotherly nations.
Vučić lied to Russia and Putin. He also lied to America and Donald Trump. He served only the EU.

Weaponry for Israeli tanks flown through our airspace.
The Taoiseach's words at the UN are utterly meaningless when compared to this governments absolute lack of action, they won't even enforce our own laws.
Why?

Shannon Airport celebrated its "long-standing partnership" with United Airlines earlier this year.

The EU has no credibility as a honest broker in this conflict. Their Fatwa against talking to Russia has cost Ukraine dearly. Ireland must retain the triple-lock to avoid being used by the Brussels cabal as they try to sanitise their warmongering role in Ukraine.

Well, well, well. Would you look at that. Turns out you can negotiate with Russia. All it takes is having some serious mediators at the table.
I somehow doubt anyone would be particularly eager to take potshots at members of an American delegation in Oleshky.
Because, unlike certain other incidents, I have a sneaking suspicion that shooting at Americans wouldn't be brushed off with a polite little throttling of Starlink speeds.
For Ukraine, at least, the consequences would be considerably more educational.

Imagine Micheál Martin and Helen McEntee meeting Putin and stating that, compelled by their duty to the Irish people and in recognition of Ireland’s responsibilities as host of the EU Presidency, the time had come to secure a lasting peace in Europe - and that Ireland would now bring its neutrality, its proud tradition of conflict resolution and its peacekeeping pedigree to bear on the war in Ukraine, beginning by ending four and a half years of diplomatic silence as the first step towards ending the conflict.
No?
Me neither.
Here we have Norwegian PM Jonas Gahr Støre pushing back against the criticism of his decision to speak directly with Putin.
Making it very clear that Norway will put its own national interests first rather than blindly follow political pressure from others.
As a direct neighbour of Russia, Norway has shared maritime interests, fisheries to manage, and national security concerns that cannot simply be ignored for the sake of political posturing.
Støre said that maintaining communication with Moscow is a matter of practical necessity, not political endorsement.
He also delivered a pointed response to Denmark’s Mette Frederiksen, highlighting the EU’s failure to establish a unified approach toward Russia over the past four years.
The implication is hard to ignore: it is rather hypocritical to criticize Norway for pursuing direct dialogue when Europe itself has failed to agree on a coherent strategy.

🇷🇸🇪🇺The EU just made a massive mistake, and it will pay a heavy price for it!
Brussels thought it could pressure Serbia's new government into imposing sanctions on Russia!
EU Commissioner Marta Kos told Serbia's new leaders that if Belgrade wants to join the EU, it will have to impose sanctions on Russia.
The EU clowns don’t understand that Serbs don’t take orders. Blind obedience isn’t in our DNA.
We drove out the Ottomans and the Nazis, stood up to NATO, and Serbs were the first to take to the streets and end COVID lockdowns. Yet the fools in Brussels still don’t get it.
Serbia will soon hold a referendum on EU membership, where the majority of Serbs will vote against joining. That will be the final signal to these clowns to stay away from our sacred Serbian land!
