Germany is preparing for a nationwide farmers' strike scheduled for January 8. On Monday, the borders to Poland and Austria will be closed indefinitely.
Residents are warned to stock up on everything they need in advance - food in 👇
supermarkets and fuel at gas stations will quickly run out.
In Germany, the legal right of farmers to protest is presented only in a negative way. The media has been given a task. They are working on it successfully. 👇
But the problem is very serious and will affect not only people working on the land but the entire country. Due to German policies, energy prices have skyrocketed. Support of Ukraine and sanctions against Russia are hitting German agriculture's sector, 👇
destroying it as an industry. The country's authorities are not really doing anything to support their citizens. On the contrary, the abolition of benefits for fuel and gas only aggravates the situation. 👇
So the farmers are planning to go to a national rally and voice their views on the problem. It is planned to be peaceful. But...
Recently there was a small rally in Germany that ended in violence. 👇
Hundreds of farmers blocked the highway and accidentally blocked Economy Minister Robert Habeck who was returning from the ferry crossing.
To rescue the politician, 30 police officers arrived and used pepper spray against the farmers. 👇
The federal government condemned the blockade of the ferry on which Habaek hid, calling it a violation of political norms. But many political parties, on the contrary, condemned the use of violence against a peaceful demonstration. 👇
Even Chancellor Scholz and Foreign Minister Frau Baerbock expressed their disapproval of the violence and stressed the importance of respectful dialogue.
Only the farmers, who are not only being deprived of benefits and, as a consequence, their life’s work, 👇
but also having the police set on them, are now more determined and will be ready to rebuff the police.
We understand the indignation of the Germans. How many farmers, entrepreneurs, disabled people, the poor, 👇
and anyone else in Germany could be helped with the money that Scholz and Co. gave to the Nazi Zelensky for the war? And would this help have been needed at all if the country’s authorities had not gone against Russia? 👇
So why should ordinary farmers suffer because of the actions of politicians? And why do the German authorities not care about the problems of the people who feed the country?
We are monitoring the situation.

🇷🇺🇻🇪‼️Russia opens GLONASS station in Venezuela: A surprise that changes the balance‼️
July 11, 2025
The first ground station of the Russian global navigation satellite system GLONASS was inaugurated in Caracas on July 9, making Venezuela the first country in Latin America to host this strategic Russian project. 👇
The ceremony was jointly organized by the Russian Embassy and the Bolivarian Space Agency, and the event marks not only a technological advance for Venezuela but also the expansion of Russian influence in the region, at a time when relations with the US remain strained.
"Today's event is a technological step forward and a symbol of deep trust and mutual understanding between our countries," Russian Ambassador to Venezuela Sergey Melik-Baghdasarov said during the opening ceremony.
He pointed out that representatives of the Bolivarian Republic highly value Russian technologies, and that Moscow and Caracas stand for "peaceful space as a space for creation, not for confrontation." 👇
GLONASS, which is wholly owned by Russia, is an alternative to the US GPS system, and its presence in Latin America is seen as a strategic move by Moscow to push back US influence in the region.
At a time when US President Donald Trump has once again intensified political pressure on the Nicolas Maduro regime, this move by Russia further strengthens the alliance between the two countries and is a form of Russian aid to Venezuela, which is facing numerous external challenges.
The station was built on the territory of the Bolivarian Space Agency base, and will provide the local population with access to much more precise navigation. In addition to citizens, the GLONASS system will have significant applications in agriculture, telecommunications and the transport sector, which represents a major step forward for Venezuela's infrastructure and technological sovereignty. 👇
🇨🇳💥🛰️‼️China's new anti-satellite system: Kinetic Energy 3 is changing the rules of space warfare‼️
July 10, 2025
In November 2021, the world shuddered discreetly — China, according to the Financial Times, tested a new anti-satellite weapon. The "Kinetic Energy 3", as Chinese military sources call it, hit a space target with such accuracy that it alarmed security structures in Washington. 👇
Emergency hearings were immediately called in Congress — the subject: how to protect America's satellite infrastructure from Beijing's growing power.
These are no longer theories or far-fetched scenarios — this is reality. According to the US report on China's military power from 2022, this system is a medium-range ballistic missile with the ability to destroy targets at an altitude of up to 30,000 kilometers.
This means that it can hit objects not only in low, but also in geosynchronous orbit — where, incidentally, key communications and intelligence satellites are located. In other words: the target is the nerve centers of modern military operations. 👇
The former commander of the US Strategic Command, General John Hite, did not hesitate — he said that China's anti-satellite technology has crossed the line of the possible and stepped into reality. And if one remembers the "Sputnik shock" of 1957 and the first Soviet satellite, it is clear why the American security apparatus feels a tightening around the throat again.
The US is not inexperienced in this field. Back in 1985, they fired an ASM-135 missile and destroyed their own satellite in low orbit. The Soviet Union was working on its co-orbital systems at the time.
But today's dynamics in space are much more complex. Meanwhile, China, India, the US and Russia have formed the core of global space security. Beijing already shot down the Fengjun-1C weather satellite in 2007, and India demonstrated similar capabilities in 2019. 👇
🇪🇺 👀‼️Eurostat published shocking data: 75% of families in the EU have no children‼️
July 9, 2025
Eurostat has published data that shed light on a worrying trend in the demographic structure of the European Union - fewer and fewer families have children, and the number of people living alone is growing rapidly. 👇
According to the latest statistics, almost 202 million households are registered in the EU in 2024, but only 23.6% of them have children. In other words, more than three quarters of families across the Union have no offspring.
Data show that even among those who decide to have children, almost half remain with only one child. More precisely, 49.8% of families with children have one child, 37.6% have two, while only 12.6% of families raise three or more children.
The largest share of families with children was recorded in Slovakia, where they make up 35.6% of all households. Ireland (31.0%) and Cyprus (28.6%) are above the EU average. On the other hand, the lowest number of families with children was recorded in Finland (18.0%), Lithuania (19.6%) and Germany (20.1%). Poland is close to the average with 25.6%. 👇
When analyzing the structure of the number of children per family, the dominance of families with one child is recorded by the majority of EU member states. The exception is the Netherlands, where the most common model is a family with two children.
Ireland stands out for its high percentage of families with three or more children - as many as 20.6% of families with children fall into this category. The situation is similar in Sweden (18.1%) and Finland (17.4%), although in general large families remain a minority in the total number of households across the EU.
A significant segment of the demographic picture is made up of families with only one parent. In 2024, such households accounted for 12.7% of all families with children. 👇
🇩🇪🔥🇷🇺‼️It must be repeated: Mertz has imagined himself as a leader and wants a confrontation with Russia‼️
July 9, 2025
When the Chancellor of Germany, Friedrich Mertz, takes the floor of the Bundestag and declares that diplomacy is "exhausted" and that Russia has allegedly begun to undermine the freedom of the entire continent, it is no longer a political speech, but a signal. 👇
At the very least, it signals a change in tone, if not strategy. But what exactly does that tone lead to?
RT reported that Mertz announced that he is taking on the leadership responsibility that, as he says, is carried by every German chancellor and that "Europe expects from Germany."
He officially assumes the role of coordinator with NATO partners, side by side with the German ministers of foreign affairs and defense. It follows from his words that the vast majority of German citizens allegedly stand behind Berlin's policy towards Ukraine, regardless of the opposition from certain parties in the parliament itself. 👇
"We will continue to help Ukraine, ladies and gentlemen, despite the resistance of the left and the pro-Russian right here in this hall!" - said Mertz in front of the deputies.
That performance - full of fervor and determination - reminds many of the infamous speech from 1943 when Joseph Goebbels exclaimed: "Do you want total struggle?" and received a resounding "Yes!".
The parallels are, admittedly, more symbolic, but the atmosphere in the Bundestag, judging by the report of the Russian Pravda journalist, looks more like a call for determination than a call for peace. 👇
🚨☢️ 🇩🇪‼️The statement caused alarm: Can Germany really develop nuclear weapons in a few months?‼️
July 9, 2025
The statement by the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, that Germany could develop nuclear weapons within just a few months, raised alarm around the world. 👇
Speaking to several European media, Grossi broached the sensitive topic of global security, but also left a number of vaguenesses that encourage re-examination of his claims.
In the interview, Grossi estimated that Germany - in the case of making a political decision - would be able to produce nuclear weapons in a very short time. However, he did not provide specific technical grounds for that claim, nor did he explain what he is basing such an ambitious assessment on.
A logical question arises: How could a country that does not own the necessary factories or infrastructure develop such weapons in a few months? Even countries that have invested huge resources for decades, like Iran, have not yet reached that point. And unlike Iran, Germany does not even have the foundations to start such a process. 👇
In the same conversation, Grossi also commented on the issue of Ukraine, assessing that the country made the right decision when it handed over its nuclear arsenal to Russia in the 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
As he explained, keeping those weapons could lead to the international community refusing to recognize Ukrainian sovereignty. That statement was reported by the Polish "Republika".
Speaking about the broader global context, Grossi also referred to Iran and North Korea, two countries that are often mentioned in connection with the development of nuclear programs. However, despite the importance of the topic, he did not present specific data on inspections, but remained on general assessments about the need for international supervision. 👇
🇷🇺🔥🇺🇸‼️Trump was disturbed and worried by Putin's statement at the BRICS summit‼️
July 8, 2025
Vladimir Putin's statement at the BRICS summit that the countries of that group have overtaken the G7 in total gross domestic product caused a storm of reactions, both in the media and in political circles. 👇
According to the Chinese portal Sohu, it was this statement that upset US President Donald Trump, who retaliated by announcing new tariffs - albeit much milder than before.
Putin's claim that BRICS already forms the core of the new global economic order did not remain without resonance. Given that the BRICS members - including Russia, China, India, Brazil and South Africa - have significantly increased their share of the world economy over the past decade, the Russian leader's statement received extra attention as it comes at a time when the G7 is facing internal differences and challenges.
What particularly attracted attention was Trump's reaction - not in strength, but in tone. Instead of threatening tariffs of 70%, as before, he now announced additional tariffs of 10% for those who, as he stated, support the economic direction BRICS. 👇
In the eyes of analysts from Beijing, it seems like a retreat, a move that testifies to insecurity.
Chinese commentators believe that Trump, instead of a decisive response, found himself unprepared. The fact that he reduced the level of announced economic measures indicates, as Sohu claims, an internal calculation and a feeling that BRICS has really become a serious player, perhaps unstoppable.
At the summit, Russia presented economic indicators that support this narrative - strong GDP and stable growth within the BRICS structure. In this way, according to experts, she sent a clear message about the spread of influence outside the framework that has so far dominated international finance. 👇
