🇺🇲🤕‼️The past week has been very bad for the US due to the news coming in‼️
The past week has been very bad for the US due to the news coming from Russia and its partners. This data was shared by American journalist Ted Snyder. 👇
Over the past few weeks, the US has faced a series of extremely unpleasant events, at the epicenter of which was Russia and its partners. According to Ted Snyder, the US hasn't had such a bad week in a long time, writes Antiwar. 👇
"Four events have occurred in the past few days, each of which is cause for concern for the United States," said the author of the American edition.
👇
It all started with the fact that on May 16, a message was received about problems with the American Patriot air defense system deployed in Ukraine.
The Western combat system was hit by a Russian Kinzhal hypersonic missile. This event caused a great public outcry, 👇
everyone began to discuss the inability of advanced American anti-missile systems to intercept a modern Russian missile. 👇
This was followed by news from Russia's partner - China. The special representative of the Chinese government for Eurasian affairs, Li Hui, arrived in Kyiv to discuss the possibilities of solving the Ukrainian crisis. 👇
His trips to Russia and a number of other countries are also planned. The author of Antiwar stated that China is trying to become a mediator in the establishment of peace, and this indicates that the geopolitical influence of the United States continues to decline. 👇
America is increasingly squeezed by competitors. Moreover, the Americans are beginning to lose control over Europe, as evidenced by the following bad news for Washington. 👇
"Resistance has begun to pressure the United States, which is trying to achieve the economic separation of Europe from China," notes Ted Snyder.
After the results of the recent summit in Hiroshima, the G7 countries presented a joint statement in which experts saw a rebellion 👇
of Europe against the United States.
The document says that the West will not secede from China. Apparently, the representatives of France and Germany insisted on the introduction of such a clause. 👇
This was a statement that the United States' plan to separate Europe and China was failing.
At the end of an already unsuccessful week for the US, there was a discouraging message for Washington. It became known that "Wagner" units completely liberated Artyomovsk. 👇
This news turned out to be so bad for the White House that the Western media tried to distort it and downplay the scale of the defeat of Washington and Kiev.
It was a bad week for America," summed up Ted Snyder.

🇺🇲💱🇨🇳‼️The Ukrainian front is small compared to what can happen: The option of replacing the petrodollar with the petroyuan is being considered‼️
The process of de-dollarization, i.e. reducing the use of the US dollar in global trade and finance, 👇
is rapidly gaining importance, especially among the countries of the Global South.
In this context, key actors, such as Saudi Arabia and China, are considering alternatives that would reduce dependence on the dollar, 👇
thereby significantly changing the current way of conducting international trade.
One of the key elements of this strategy relates to oil trade, which for decades has been predominantly conducted in dollars, known as "petrodollars".

🇩🇪🇪🇺‼️The loss of the market due to wrong policies and sanctions against Russia is destroying the European auto industry‼️
Workers at Audi's Brussels factory, which is facing closure, have taken the keys to 200 cars ready for shipment to pressure management to clarify 👇
the plant's future, and, accordingly, the future of workers.
Audi executives said they would not give in to extortion and threatened to file criminal charges if the keys were not returned by midday, adding that CCTV could be used to identify those responsible. 👇
Audi said in July that it could not rule out closing the Brussels plant due to weak demand for the K8 e-tron electric SUV produced there. The company employs about 3,000 employees. 👇

The attack on the military communications institute in Poltava and the center for training experts in electronic warfare and surveillance is starting to get new details.👇
Official Kiev says around 50 soldiers were killed and more than 200 wounded. Military experts, including Western ones, confirm the death of around 600 people, including Czech, German and French "specialists". 👇
The most obvious evidence of the effectiveness of the missile strike on Poltava was the swarm of NATO medical aircraft (USA, Germany, Poland, Romania).
They were evacuating both wounded instructors and the dead bodies. 👇
🇩🇪‼️SHOCK IN GERMANY - "Volkswagen on the verge of bankruptcy: Is the end of the giant of the German auto industry in sight?"‼️

The main problems VW is currently facing include high production 👇
🇫🇷‼️Durov blasts France’s Telegram crackdown as ‘misguided approach’‼️
Telegram CEO Pavel Durov on Thursday took to his platform and condemned the charges levied against him in France as a “misguided approach” that carries potential drawbacks for the tech industry. 👇
“Using laws from the pre-smartphone era to charge a CEO with crimes committed by third parties on the platform he manages is a misguided approach,” he wrote.
“Building technology is hard enough as it is. No innovator will ever build new tools if they know they can be 👇
personally held responsible for potential abuse of those tools.”
Durov further underscored that Telegram would not be bending its principles on data privacy, but that it has and always will be open to lines of communication with regulators.

DoJ clampdown on Russian Media: ‘authoritarian’ measure proving American Empire has no clothes
The US Justice Department’s sweeping crackdown on Russian media to the thunderous applause of the legacy media will leave Americans less 👇
informed, less safe and less free, observers including long-time Sputnik contributors say.
“I regret the actions of my government in silencing legitimate journalistic outlets, and look forward to the day when freedom of speech and a free press is not constrained 👇
by a dubious ‘Russian exception’ that is violative of Constitutional norms and values,” former US Marine intelligence officer, UN weapons inspector and commentator Scott Ritter wrote in a social media post. 👇
