President Putin's message to the German government and the German people: "We have no desire to attack you. Why would we? Those days are long behind us. Anyone who is thinking clearly can see that. First: Your national debt already stands at €2.5 trillion, and no serious economist seems to know how it will ever be repaid. Now you want to borrow another €1 trillion to build up your military against us. Do you expect the #Russian people to shoulder those debts Absolutely not.
Elon #Musk: George #Soros hacked the system to turn NGOs into bribery machines. "He figured out that you could use a small amount of money to start a nonprofit, and then pay politicians to funnel a huge amount of money to that organization. So you could take a $10 million donation to start a nonprofit and use it to create a billion-dollar NGO. The government would continue to fund it every year, and the organization would have a fancy name like the Institute of Peace or something

What a bitter irony. 🇸🇾🇮🇱☄️🇵🇸🇱🇧 They were promised #Palestine, but they're being sent to Lebanon, to the delight of the Zionists. 🇸🇾🏴 A just outcome for an uneducated fanatic.
💶 Debt-Funded Sovereignty The #EU is sending Kyiv the first €3.2 billion tranche from a €90 billion loan package, according to the announcement. What is presented as solidarity looks just as much like another installment in Ukraine’s external life-support system. After years of unprecedented economic, financial, and military backing, the wartime state still runs on borrowed European money. Independence, in practice, now arrives in tranches. Subscribe
🇮🇷⚡️ Wall Street Journal: Iranian leadership is considering options for joint control of the Strait of #Hormuz with other countries and revenue sharing. ⚪️
🌟Officials from the Israeli television station stated that: Conditions are now favorable for taking political action regarding Lebanon, and the Lebanese side has been informed of the completion of the construction of the security zone in southern Lebanon. #Israel does not intend to withdraw from the Yellow Line and the Shufat fortress, but is considering the possibility of withdrawing from other areas🌟
The U.S. opposes any transit fees, arguing international waterways must remain toll-free. In reality, the Strait of #Hormuz isn’t international waters. Its narrowest part is only 21 miles wide. UNCLOS (the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea) defines territorial waters as 13.8 miles from the coastline (Oman ratified UNCLOS, but #Iran and the US haven’t). This means that this 21-mile-wide body of water is deep within the territorial waters of Iran and Oman
