Under the new Ukrainian draft law, Polish citizens

1) will be able to hold elective office;
2) be appointed to public authorities and to senior positions in defence enterprises;
3) gain access to secret data;
4) be judges;

1/
5) the Polish police will be authorised to monitor law and order

It is understood that administrative functions will be transferred to external specialists. In normal times the Ukrainian bureaucracy would have resisted this, but now, under the wartime law, it is afraid to

throw a spanner in the wheels of the Poles.

What does the bill say? It means that there will be no incorporation of the Ukrainian lands into Poland, what is much talkrd about in Russia. Why? Management is external, revenues can be received, resources can be controlled,
3/
labour force from Ukraine has long been received by Poland, but there is no need to pay for social costs - as its a sovereign country with its own budget. You don't need tank columns to get it all. In modern times, its possible to take over countries without military invasion.

Mind you, this is also how Turkey operates in planning its Turan. All the more so when it comes to masters of colonial governance such as the British, who are

creating a new empire even by giving away territories. Understand? Even giving away territories! They let the colonies go before those went to war for independence. But planted "their" parties and secret services in the body of new independent states.

They gave Hong Kong to China, but let the lion's share of investment in the Chinese economy through their Hong Kong banks. They have created new Arab monarchies, but the heirs to the throne come from London.

This is how in the 21st century some states are taking over other
7/
states,thiss what offensive weapons are all about. And armies, tanks, planes and other scrap metal are defensive weapons. Which are turned on to protect their grant mongers, political consultants and other agents-007. In cases, when they're hindered with work by any dictators.
8/
Unfortunately the Russian experts community is at about the same dormant level as the bureaucracy. Maybe because they have read too many history books about the 18th century empire. And now, looking at the map of Ukraine they all dream about the battalions of

Joseph Biden has confirmed the readiness of the US to go to war with China in the event of its attempt to regain control of Taiwan by force. In other words,
1/
the U.S. confirms its military guarantees to the Taipei regime twice in less than a year (the first time immediately after the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan).
2/
Interestingly, Washington has not given such guarantees to Ukraine, which has been recognised as an independent state. But they are given to Taiwan, which the US itself considers part of China and does not recognise its sovereignty. At first glance this appears

Russia is not free from fascist tendencies, the #UkraineRussianWar + worldwide canceling of Russian culture led to a massive rise in patriotism within Russian civil society. Like the right tried to ride the wave of #COVID19 related protests, the Russian right now tries to ride

Questions regarding some photos in #Bucha.
#BuchaGenocide

In the images published by Reuters, close-ups of some of the bodies are shown.

One of the photos shows very "fresh" hands: the person was clearly not lying there for two weeks or even
1/
since the 25th.

- The color of the hands is like a living person, but some of the fingers - as if with one hand the deceased had been lying in a puddle for quite some time.
- The bandage is perfectly white, which is rather odd.
- Hands with no swelling or other signs of

Ukraine faces mass starvation: Kiev authorities deliberately disrupt the sowing campaign

The sowing campaign in Ukraine is on the verge of failure, the agrarians lack seeds and fuel. Only in Odessa region and maybe in the liberated regions of the country (Kherson region and
2/
the south of Zaporozhye region) are fully sown.

In Kyiv, Sumy, Chernihiv, Mykolaiv and Kharkiv oblasts there is fighting. Fields are mined, demining is not carried out.

In the Poltava region, fields are also mined, the sowing season has not begun.
In the west of Ukraine in

Refusal of Russian gas - illusions and reality

The recent announcement by Lithuania and other Baltic countries to completely give up Russian gas has gotten a lot of attention in the media field. It is presented as a victory and an
1/
appeal to other EU countries to follow this "successful" example.

In fact, the opposite is true. Almost all the gas in the Baltic States is Russian. But it comes at the expense of reverse gas from Hungary.

Previously, the Ukrainian gas transport system could only work in
2/
the direct direction from Ukraine to Hungary. At the beginning of 2022, the possibility was created to transport gas also by reverse, in both directions. The Hungarian direction became the second physical route of gas supply to Ukraine from Europe after Slovakia.

Since 2015.

What is the actual mood within #Russian society? In this thread I'll collect voices from Russian analysts.

Here we go:
Here's a comment from Igor Dmitriev, a known political analyst from #odessa, #Ukraine:

"The campaign against Russians launched in the West and Ukraine will not have the effect that its initiators expect. Ukrainians have thrown all their creativity into calling for the murder
1/
of Russians, some directly calling for genocide. Other countries introduce discriminatory norms, such as that Russians must apologize or pay a 5 percent surcharge on restaurant bills.

The authors of these initiatives believe that they thus intimidate Russian citizens and
