At the end of the day, it doesn’t even matter if Zelenskyy is President of Ukraine or not. @ZelenskyyUa
Putin’s goal is to take Ukraine. Then he will take Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, and he will make his way through all of Europe.
People obsess over personalities too much.
You could have an election in Ukraine tomorrow and Putin would still find a reason to be at war.
Russia INVADED Ukraine.
Not the other way around.
Zelenskyy’s removal from office won’t stop Russian imperialism.
It’s not about Zelenskyy. It’s about Putin. It’s always been about Putin.

Des lecteurs se sont plaints de n'avoir pas assez de noms d'avocats genevois dans les #PandoraPapers. Voici de quoi combler un peu leur frustration - en attendant peut-être d'autres noms... bit.ly/3abygTx

Devastating glacier loss in Switzerland in the extreme year 2026 - 5.5% of the remaining ice is gone! I'm still struggling to grasp the extent of this decline.
This loss almost catches up with the record-shattering year 2022: too little snow in winter and intense heat

Alexander Kynev, one of Russia’s most respected election experts, was arrested on drug trafficking charges. It’s a completely absurd accusation that could land him in prison for more than 10 years. Even by today’s standards, this is shockingly cruel. There can be no reason for this persecution other than political ones.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, we’ll introduce the “Safeguard Swiss neutrality” ballot initiative, which goes to a nationwide vote in Switzerland on 27 September. It’s best known for promising “no war” while actually encouraging wars by ending sanctions on belligerent states.

A week and a half before October 7, 2023 UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from Abu Dhabi and spoke with him for 45 minutes.
In that conversation, bin Zayed warned that Hamas’ leader in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar, was planning a major operation against Israel.
Bin Zayed urged Netanyahu to take the situation seriously. To his surprise, however, the prime minister reacted with relative calm. Netanyahu said that, in his assessment, Hamas intended to operate in the West Bank area, and he reassured bin Zayed that Israel was prepared for any scenario.

🇩🇪🇪🇺 Germany is not collapsing.
Germany is in crisis only by its own standards.
🔸 Unemployment is 3.8%, versus 5% across the OECD.
🔸 The world’s second-largest trade surplus.
🔸 The lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7.
🔸 Germany hosts 46% of the world’s specialised mid-sized global market leaders.
After decades of exceptional performance, Germany faces a temporary crisis exploited by radicals.
Germany needs major investment in energy, infrastructure and industry, not what the AfD offers.

Landsat 9 captured very clear images of the Himalayan glacier that collapsed, triggering the catastrophic flash floods in Nepal.
Estimating very roughly from these images, it appears that the area that failed may have spanned ~1 km² of ice and rock.

After dedicating his life to hating Jews, admiring Stalin and Hitler, and supporting russia in their invasion of Europe, vatnik Alain Soral finally fled the decadent West to his dear russia.
He soon realized it's a shithole which all the educated russians that could have left long ago, and even those that remain are not as enthusiastic about Putin and the war as he is.
He's now 67, depressed, lonely, and contemplating suicide.
Don't be like Alain, kids.
