Syria collapse revealed the truth about the structure of terrorist organization that the west has been cheated since the immoral invasion of Iraq, surprisingly US has been revealed as the hidden leader of Al Qaeda terrorist which is working directly under US's proxy terrorist Turkey.

Consequently, Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi have been proven innocent unlike being branded as the greatest terrorists by the west, thanks for revealing US as the hidden master of Al Qaeda terrorist and other terrorists since the collapse of Syria.

Since US has been revealed to be the terrorist head that the west has been looking for elimination since the invasion of Iraq, it would be a great show for the whole world to watch of the hypocrisy of the west whether or not the west would eliminate terrorist US just like the west did with Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi in the name of terrorist elimination.

Terrorist US even plottted against the innocent Saddam Hussein as a terrorist with disinformation in order to mislead the west to invade Iraq horribly so terrorist US has proven herself as the master of deception to deliberately create conflicts among countries with disinformation since the Iraq war as well as with the current Ukraine civil war, Gaza Genocide war, South China Sea conflict, etc.
There is no greater liar than US throughout history but the sick west still accept all lies from US as God's word until now even while committing Genocide Crime in Gaza with US Genocide bombs.

Anyway, the day for the real terrorist US to lead the west is over because it not only has revealed herself as the terrorist head the west has been searching for elimination since the invasion of Iraq but also since empowering the Gaza Genocide Crime through the abuse of UN veto, terrorist US has no morality to be a leader anymore.

The Genocide Crime in Gaza is empowered by US through the abuse of UN veto which prevents UN from intervening the Gaza Genocide War waged by US's proxy Genocide force Israel.

The Genocide crime in Gaza clearly indicates that US has already become the Genocide Criminal undeniably now.

So the whole world must stop using everything made by the Genocide Criminal US or else you are complicit in Gaza Genocide crime committed by the Genocide Criminal US.

The Genocide Criminal US has no morality to lead the world anymore unless the Gaza Genocide crime is atoned by giving a sentence that fits for the Genocide Criminal to both Joe Biden and Blinken immediately without delay or else it would be too late for US to redeem herself from the stain of Gaza Genocide Crime.

Terrorist US is known for spreading assassination lawlessly throughout the Middle East in order to support Genocide war in Gaza.

Now the lawless assassination led by terrorist US has been spred to Russia with the recent assassinations of Russia's top missile expert Mikhail Shatsky and the head of Russia's Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Defense Forces, Lt. General Igor Kirillov, and it's highly expected that the lawless assassination led by Terrorist US would be getting worse in Russia very soon just like in the Middle East.

Lawless Assassination led by terrorist US is so successful in the Middle East, thanks to the GPS enabled devices such as handphone, laptop, etc with the unreliable built-in US software because the US spy software enables to track the exact location of the device for assassination purpose immorally as confirmed by the son of the assassinated former Hama leader so Russia urgently need to ban all GPS enabled devices that works with US software immediately in order to prevent from further lawless assassination attempt led by terrorist US for the sake of national security.

The Genocide criminal Joe Biden even recently approved to transfer the Gaza Genocide bombs to Ukraine as he has been committing to Gaza for the Gaza Genocide war so Genocide war has already spred from Gaza to Russia now practically so coexistence is hardly possible between Russia and terrorist US but Russia is not the only target of Terrorist US for elimination but eliminating one at a time is the strategy of Terrorist US now so after eliminating Russia, China would be undeniably the next prey for elimination for terrorist US.

So it's an urgent call for both Russia and China not only to be united but also must work together to be ahead of terrorist US in the survival game which must start with the immediate realization of Gold backed currency for worldwide trading without any further delay unless they didn't want to end up as a menu on the table of terrorist US as the Genocide Criminal Blinken mentioned before because with one gone, the chance for the survival of the remaining one is highly reduced so being united at all cost is the only solution for both Russia and China for the sake of survival as long as terrorist US exists.

Oslo is one of the world's most dangerous cities, according to the Zimbabwe Times, it is the third most dangerous city in the world after Stockholm and Mogadishu, the two largest cities in Somalia. I was riding the metro and accidentally exited at the wrong stop and ended up in a neighborhood called Stovner. It looked exactly like a Brazillian favela, with slums stacked on top of eachother, this area was more dangerous than Sao Paolo or Caracas, those places were paradise compared to Oslo. Anyways I got off the station and a Swedish man named Ahmad Farshid Bin Tlariq al Muqtadeen din Rashidi approached me as well as a Pakistani man named Salman Falmanrashidiqqi Siddiqui. They told me to convert to Islam. I was scared so I tried to cooperate, I asked them how, they told me it costs 5 million krone for infidels to visit the local mosque. After that I realize it was a scam. As I left the mosque, an SAS plane crashed into me and it made me fly all the way to Paris? And guess who else was in Paris?

Anyways in conclusion, Oslo is a very deadly city, if you care about your personal safety DO NOT VISIT!!!!!

Ukraine war is no longer a civil war between Russia and Ukraine but a continuation of WW2 Grudge war between Soviet Union and Nazi Germany.
It's no wonder a ceasefire offer signal from Russia has been repeatedly rejected unreasonably since 2022.

The only way to survive this WW2 grudge war for Russia is to apply all merciless strategies from the most intelligent strongman Stalin or else there would be no second chance of collapse like the Soviet Union but the total destruction for Russia where Russia might be swallowed up into the Nazi-visioned European Union in order to please the spirit of Genocide criminal Hitler.

The situation of the current Russia is worse than the Soviet Union under Stalin because Stalin only had the Nazi Germany problem before but Rusia have 2 enemies, terrorist US including her created terrorist NATO which was instrumental in helping to collapse Soviet Union before and US led NATO is planning to collapse Russia again and the other enemy is indeed the old enermy Nazi Germany which even violated the WW2 treaty by creating the Nazi-visioned European Union unlawfully in order to realize Hitler's dream

Fortunately, Russia have the best weapon in the world undeniably now unlike Stalin who didn't possess the best weapon while fighting the superior Nazi Germany and practically Russia is the strongest superpower in the world now and need to use her advantage to destroy both of her enemies completely without mercy just like Stalin did to Nazi Germany for the sake of her survival or else if the problem of both of her enemies were unresolved now, Russia's future would be worrisome

ATACMS missile attack from Ukraine is actually an unprecedented direct terrorism attack from Terrorist US undeniably because only the soldiers of Terrorist US can operate ATACMS so ATACMS attack is simply an unprecedented declaration of war from Terrorist US to Russia.

Russia might urgently need to prepare at least 600 invincible Oreshnik hypersonic nuclear bombs in order to defeat both of her enemies, half for terrorist US and half for the others including Germany and any troublemaker from the hypocritical west and since this would a total destruction war unlike the civil war in Ukraine war, no country from the hypocritical west would dare to support Nazi Germany for fear of own destruction because retaliation with the invincible Oreshnik hypersonic nuclear attack would not be delayed in the total destruction so Russia shouldn't have more enemies in the total destruction war than
the 2 existential threatening enemies.

300 invincible Oreshnik hypersonic nuclear bombs probably might be more than enough to turn most cities in US mainland into dust because the missile defense systems from the backsliding Terrorist US is obsolete to stop Russia's most advanced Oreshnik hypersonic weapon or else probably 4000 non-hypersonic nuclear bombs might be necessary in order to have the same result.

Indeed Russia urgently need to create the invincible hypersonic defense systems urgently in order to secure a total victory for the probable incoming nuclear war where total destruction of terrorist US and Nazi Germany might be realized in order to enable coexistence worldwide again.

From losing the whole country under Nazi Germany During WW2 to working as slave for the Nazi Germany now unprecedentedly, France’s president, Emmanuel Macron would be remembered in history as a traitor to France.
If the traitor Macron knew a bit of gratitude, this traitor should stop working as a slave for Nazi Germany and instead should support the territory integrity of Russia according to the Russia's wish as long as the boundary is less than the Soviet Union, the savior of France from the illegal occupation of Nazi Germany during WW2 and should work together with Russia to destroy the second Nazi party called European Union and make sure Nazi Germany stops violating WW2 treaty no more for the sake of restoring peace in the west again.
But the traitor Macron is hopeless so he would die as a traitor working as a slave for Nazi Germany and probably have his country destroyed again as well by the former savior Russia because the destruction of France might be necessary for Russia for the sake of self defence from the endless attempts of conspiracy and misleading made among the west against Russia without law and justice by the traitor Macron under the instructions of Nazi Germany.

US is clearly and undeniably a thief leaders with a bunch of thieves followers such as Israel, European Union, Philippines, etc.

The responsibility of the thief leader is indeed to help its thieves followers to steal things such as territory, etc from others without law and justice such as helping Jew to steal the whole Palestine from Palestinian to the extent of enabling Genocide crime in Gaza, helping the Philippines thief to steal China's historical territory in South China Sea, helping the European Union thief to steal Ukraine from motherland Russia, etc.

As a thief leader, terrorist US is morally corrupted so it should be seen and treated correctly as a thief criminal without delay by both Russia and China or else something is extremely wrong to treat the thief leader US with dignity as the way Russia and China are treating the thief leader US with dignity now because dignity is not for the thief, especially the thief leader US.

The world is no longer safe under the manipulation of immoral thief leader US so the world might urgently needs to eliminate the thief leader US for the sake of security and peace for all countries or else Gaza Genocide war, endless fueling of Ukraine civil war, endless provoking of South China Sea conflict would not be the ended but it would be just the beginning with the worst parts would be followed endlessly unless the thief leader US is eliminated probably with the invincible hypersonic nuclear bomb by the combinated hypersonic force of Russia and China for the sake of justice and peaceful coexistence worldwide.

UN Veto Abuse on Gaza is an undeniable evidence that Joe Biden undeniably commits Genocide crime in Gaza.

Without the UN Veto Abuse on Gaza by the criminal Joe Biden, Gaza Genocide would never be possible because UN peacekeeping force would certainly and successfully stop the parasite Israel from committing Genocide crime in Gaza.

So Joe Biden is undeniably the main Genocide criminal for instigating the Genocide war in Gaza.

In order to uphold the genuine Human Right worldwide, not the Fake Human Right from the Hypocrite West, the world must be united in order to punish the unprecedented Human Right violator Joe Biden for his unforgivable crime of Genocide violation in Gaza.

Only after arresting the Gaza Genocide criminal Joe Biden, the Gaza Genocide war would be able to be terminated successfully or else the unprecedentedly Wicked Genocide criminal Joe Biden would endlessly extend the Gaza Genocide war with all available options such as the recent second time abuse of UN Veto again in order to deliberately and wickedly stop UN peacekeeping force from stoping the Gaza Genocide war which is absolutely no longer acceptable to the international community for the sake of upholding the genuine Human Right worldwide.

Not punishing Joe Biden while punishing the WW2 Genocide criminals Germany and Japan is not fair.

So it's time to punish the much worse Genocide criminal Joe Biden for his undeniable involvement of enabling Genocide crime in Gaza and only Russia could lead the world to accomplish this holy mission because there is no greater superpower than Russia in this world as US has been proven to be a fake superpower with her obsolete weapons as proven in Ukraine war where US's obsolete weapons are unprecedentedly useless, no wonder Ukraine is losing the war endlessly and only Russia have the genuine invincible hypersonic weapon which should be able to defeat the backsliding US in less than 3 months if Russia really determined too.

Not punishing the Genocide criminal Joe Biden would certainly make more countries the victims of Genocide criminal like Joe Biden in the near future so the world should be led by Russia in order to punish Genocide criminal Joe Biden for the sake of ensuring security for the whole world permanently so that Gaza Genocide would never be repeated in other countries again.

The only way to stop the west from fueling the Ukraine war is for Russia to force Germany to conform the WW2 treaty probably by forcing her to withdraw her illegal membership in both European Union and NATO immediately or else probably follow the example of US's WW2 Japan punishment of nuclear bombing to Germany.
Germany is highly suspected of being the main culprit for using the opportunity of Ukraine war to destroy Russia by probably bribing the corrupted leaders of France, UK, US enormously to support her Nazi-visioned European Union in order to fulfill the last wish of Hitler probably which is to completely destroy Russia.

Using the untrustworthy Local currency is an unprecedented trap for BRICS and one of the worst examples for using the untrustworthy Local currency is that the Turkey's local currency lost as much as 50% of her local currency value last year alone probably and so on.

So instead of using the untrustworthy local currency for trading among BRICS, the value of trading should be allowed to be guaranteed with choices of gold / silver / land / etc according to the latest exchange rate of the untrustworthy local currency so that the next time the value of gold / silver / land / etc is retained for the earlier trading even if the earlier untrustworthy local currency referenced for trading were depreciated as much as 50% later just like Turkey's untrustworthy currency went through last year probably.

Anyway, the untrustworthy local currency shouldn't be accepted unless there is no concern of not getting back the same value local currency comparing to before as much as 50% loss for the Turkey's case because the untrustworthy local currency would always be depreciated much quicker than other local currencies so the security issue of the untrustworthy local currency shouldn't be ignored for the sake of financial security.

Trump–Netanyahu: You have to do what is necessary. The Israeli Prime Minister, in a conversation with the former president, who claims to lead the White House in the November elections, confirmed that Israel takes into account the US position on Iran, but will ultimately make decisions based on its national interests.

Former President Donald Trump spoke by phone with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday. This was announced on Sunday by Netanyahu's office.

"Prime Minister Netanyahu confirmed that he had spoken publicly: Israel takes into account the issues raised by the US administration, but will ultimately make decisions based on its national interests," the statement said.

Later, speaking to reporters in Philadelphia, Trump said he had a "very pleasant conversation" with Netanyahu on Saturday. According to him, the Israeli leader asked his opinion on what to do in the situation with Iran, as Israel is planning a response to Tehran's recent missile strikes.

"He asked me what I thought. And I just said that you have to do what is necessary," Trump said.

Meanwhile, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Saturday, discussing with him the adjustment of the position of American troops, including the recent deployment of an anti-missile system to strengthen Israel's defense against regional threats.

The conversation was reported to the Pentagon today.

The Pentagon report also said that Austin expressed relief that the drone attack on Netanyahu had not been successful and that the Israeli prime minister was safe after the strike on his home in Caesarea.

Elon Musk: Ukraine has lost many for the sake of an insignificant result of the counteroffensive. The Armed Forces of Ukraine lost many people and at the same time achieved negligible results in the counteroffensive. This opinion was expressed by American entrepreneur Elon Musk.

He commented on the publication of businessman David Sachs on the social network X (formerly Twitter) about the failed counteroffensive of Ukrainian fighters.

"So many deaths for such an insignificant result," Musk wrote.

The businessman was criticized for refusing to turn on the Starlink satellite communication in the area of the Crimean Peninsula on the day of the attack of Ukrainian drones on the ships of the Russian Navy. Musk explained this by the sanctions that the United States of America imposed against Russia. The restrictions included Crimea, so it was impossible to turn on communication over its territory.

Information about the shutdown of the Starlink service by Musk on the territory of Crimea was reported on September 7 by CNN with reference to an excerpt from Walter Isaacson's book about the billionaire. It is clarified that Ukrainian naval drones with explosives lost contact when approaching the Russian fleet and washed ashore.

Trump predicted the disappearance of Israel with Harris' election victory
Trump: Israel will disappear within two years if Harris wins the election

Israel will cease to exist within two years if Harris is elected, because she "hates" him, Trump believes. Both he and Harris have previously expressed support for the Israelis

US Vice President and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris hates Israel, so if she wins the presidential election, this country will disappear from the political map of the world. This was stated by the Republican candidate, former US President Donald Trump during the election debate, broadcast by RBC.

"She hates Israel. If she becomes president, I believe that Israel will not exist for two years. And I was pretty good at predicting, I hope I'm wrong about that. She hates Israel," Trump said.

How funny several you tubers said the prime Minister of Russia said the door is open for 47 countries to visit Russia and even stay in Russia for 3 years and get a residence permit. Those countries include USA UK all of Europe. Those you tubers are living in Russia.

Well Putin has threatened all of Europe the USA UK many times and Russia door is open for tourists to visit anywhere in Russia how funny.

Fact is the Russia economy is failing badly even former Russia enonomists are saying that. No worries though Russia won't receive any tourists guaranteed. Because Russia is the new North Korea a hermit kingdom very limited travel globally it's no secret.

The world is sitting back watching Ukraine destroy Russia including Moscow ofcource as it should be. Russians are feeling the heat of countries globally turning on them through their economy plus prices are skyrocketing quickly throughout Russia a fact

The majority of posters on here are Russian propaganda machines for Putin and the Kremlin but it's not working in their favor. It's not possible to hide what Putin the oligarchs and the Kremlin have been condoning for many years which is torchering anyone who dare say anything negative. However people globally have witnessed the severe actions by Putin and his regime there's no hiding it no matter what people say. Mongolia allowing Putin to visit without any problem was and is a huge mistake. You tube is full of Russian citizens announcing their dismissal way of life that's been ongoing for years so all of those Russian citizens aren't lieing but instead living daily with the negative impacts it has on Russian citizens it's no secret. Theft on a large scale from Russian citizens for many years way before the Russia Ukraine war ever happened. It's true many things are being blown up in Moscow I've endured it.

Russia is the type of country that's always been known to be self destructive and has been removed by global society being referred to as sinister and evil.

But Russians brutal treatment of all who visited Russia over the years found out quickly which isn't a surprise.Bad news much faster than good news ever will but instead the bad news didn't come from any media outlets globally but instead from past visitors.

Russia is a forgotten country grasping at straws trying to promote tourism but it not working at all. Now Putin is begging Europe to buy natural gas recently and all of Europe is laughing at Russians.

Putins visit didn't go well in India when he said Ukraine invaded Russia. Putin needs not to inhale so deeply and step away from the pipe because thousands of india citizens laughed at Putin during his recent visit to speak.

No amount of persuasion will be believed by any Russian citizens. Russians will be receiving long-range visitors very soon in the form of explosive devices

You just like all russians konyac is your medicine including cigarettes. Getting drunk in public born to be drug addicts woman beaters child exploiters You can try to promote Russia all you want but people globally know exactly what your motives are it's on display globally.

Killing innocent children mutilation of their organs burying them in shallow graves to be found personally by a UN inspection. Taking innocent children by the thousands from Ukraine to Russia and the only reason for that is to mutilate them use them for other sick reasons.

Nobody believes your reheretic 4y'oanc for a moment so stop praising Russians for being humanatsrians but instead praise russians for treating humanity worse than any animals ever would. Russians are below scum of the earth but instead maggots feeding on anything because Russians are without a doubt a severe infection which started at birth and rest assured the infection will be eliminated very soon cleansed with fire on that all Russians can depend.

Russians inhabitatijng other countries abroad will join the cleansing no stone will be unturned by people globally guaranteed. Totally eliminating the Russian seeds they've planted through their offspring will end the Russian infection once and for all.

Your little thing called Putin doesn't earn the title to be called a man but instead portraying the Russian mindset as an infection but rest assured every Russian on the planet will be exterminated no matter where they are hiding we will find Russians.People globally will hunt Russians down and give them the medicine they deserve that being death.

Propaganda Russians spew out online and I've read many falsehoods here is falling upon blind eyes and deaf ears a fact. Basically all Russians are known to be are drunkards and drug addicts plus Russian citizens brag about it. You might think all will be forgiven and forgotten when the war Putin started finally ends but just remember countries globally have front row seats witnessing everything not only the Kremlin does but Russian citizens are just as guilty as Putin is. The UN has also turned it's back on Russia and yes it's permanent.Russias barbaric actions against humanity will never be forgiven nor forgotten guaranteed.

You mentioned about living in the dark in an apartment but the reality being Putin has solely crippled Russian citizens from gaining anything but being a hermit kingdom of nothingness meaning very limited travel to other countries due to the Russian mindset overall being barbaric to say the least. You can praise Russia as much as you want trying to build a positive stigma ie outlook on Russians as a whole.However countries globally are looking at not only the Kremlin but Russian citizens knowing just how destructive both really are which is no secret globally.Russian citizens are on the very same level as north Korea.If Russians think humanatarian aid is on the way forget that way of thinking too because Russia isn't on the imf list of countries deserving of help from the imf just like North Korea isn't either truth be known.In the very near future as soon as October 2024 but it's already happening right now.So enjoy your hermit kingdom because Russian citizens had every opportunity to show their dislike for how Putin has unmercifully crucified innocent citizens of Ukraine and sending young people into the meat grinder via putins orders.
Alisa on Jun 24, 2024:
Hello everyone. I have already said it many times, but I repeat again: all the countries that I have visited and even not, are excellent, interesting, peculiar. I have no goal to spit on everything and everything around, but it is the originality of the systems, being, and mental component of the population of other (European) countries that leads me personally to the conclusion that Russia is the best country in the world, no matter what and no matter who says what! In order not to be pelted with rotten eggs, I will very hastily make a reservation (oh!Oh!): the best for me! And once again: I describe the advantages of my country "through my eyes", but I do not "mince" other countries, treating their world and way of life with great respect. And here are actually my arguments:

A "multi-apartment" lifestyle instead of a "house" lifestyle. It is very important to me, because in the "house" existence, I feel like I am in the countryside. All this gives me a kind of depressing feeling of "missing". The rhythm is not the same, maybe I'm bored... I just feel with all my fibers how life is flying past me, somewhere where I am not, and I should be, where it revolves around me. Somewhere I saw that the American dream in the form of living in a private house on the outskirts "cracked", because it assumes a certain isolation of people, leading to depression. So apathy and depression are pressing on me "there".

Crowded cities. It is extremely important to me, because I like to feel that people are around me. Yesterday, in the subway, I got into a crowd right... into a traffic jam of bodies, into a stream! I got so high that it was already the strangest thing — not a single minus, only a stream of lively and bubbling energy. Previously, before getting acquainted with another reality, the buzz would not have happened, but now I'm floating in contrast. In general, the semi—deserted streets of the "settlements" are not my option, because I feel extremely depressed in all this, as I already said.

Our medicine. The issue is very controversial in principle, but, from my point of view, we have excellent preventive medicine, which is not "there". It is here that you can go to the clinic for almost any "sneeze" and very often take tests… this is where you can insist that an ambulance come, this is where you can buy medicines without a prescription, this is where you can feel that this is all for you. And even if suddenly it's unprofitable, wrong, and crazy, it's close to me and I want it to continue like this. "There" everything is very different — according to, "like CHI" they will come and even fly by helicopter, but only as a last resort, "there" they will give the opportunity to become the happy owner of the medicine, but only by prescription, for which you need to visit a doctor. "There" they almost stopped going to the doctors (this is what I and my friends who live "there" observe)... it is understandable, because there is not much point in this. No one wants to go to the doctor in order to actually hear something like "it will pass by itself" or "drink paracetamol".

Our education (here, education). In a sense, we have a more correct system of upbringing and education. Which one? In such a way that children almost immediately learn quite serious things, and not "chill out doing something incomprehensible" (in fact, enjoying childhood). "There," it is true, children are more free, relaxed, empathic, and commanding, but in comparison with ours, and in my opinion, they do not develop as quickly as ours, because they are allowed to be children longer. But our children are prepared for life earlier, adapted earlier.

It is warm in the apartments. Our apartments are warm. Not everyone understands how important this is, but to be honest, it is very important. It's 20 degrees in the house, it's cold for me, although again, it's a matter of habit. But I don't want to get used to it, I want to walk around the apartment in a T-shirt and light pants and not freeze.

Light in the apartments. It's light in our apartments, and no matter what anyone says, but the semi-darkness often observed in the same Scandinavia is not useful for vision, and sometimes for mood. I love the light and I'm not ready to spend all my evenings in a romantic candlelit setting. By the way, probably due to a certain lack of light, "there" often do not hang curtains on the windows.

The development of the service. We have a very well-developed service of works and services. We have Ozone, Wildberries, Yandex, delivery, and other services. We have no problem finding a specialist for any job at an affordable price. "There" everything is very different — there is a queue for a specialist, and the work or service is extremely expensive, so people very often do everything themselves (sometimes secretly, because something must be done exclusively by a specialist), ask for the help of loved ones, or just wait and pay, and as I said, you can wait a long time and it's expensive to pay. And imagine that you have to move from one house to another. So, this is still a task, given the number of things in the house and garage, as well as the high cost of services. Therefore, in Denmark, for example, almost everyone has their own trailer, on which they transport everything independently. This is not a "Truck" for 5,000 rubles and not a solution to the problem in 1 day…

The tradition. We adhere to the traditional values that a family is a man + a woman + children = a family. "They" accept the multivariance that science seems to have justified by genetic factors. Everyone has their own way, and I don't want to express my position on this here, but as a Russian person, our understanding of family is very close to me. I believe that this is the path that leads us the right way. I will not discuss this point in the comments — I say it right away.

In conclusion, I want to say this: there are pros and cons everywhere, plus people evaluate everything differently, and of course honesty, correctness and decency are extremely good. But, as for me, I am ready to admit that I mentally "grew up" differently, not ready for such a "their" correct, honest and very realistic life, it is difficult and unclear for me, I am sad, bored and even scared in it. I am too "small" for such a life, too childish.

In addition, due to the fact that I do not have a sufficient level of legal consciousness, what is the right country for me, in general, what are the strict rules for me (and "there" the rules really work)?! What kind of total honesty and decency do I need?! And I am far from the only one in the country, and I really ask you not to protest, because the environment determines the level of legal awareness. In general, "what kind of sledges are like that," well, or vice v

Moscow is currently the best metropolis in all respects, Tokyo is in second place!
01/01/2014 · by Christian Horn · in Europe, Urbanism on May 11, 2024:
MOSCOW, THE CITY FOR LIFE – RUSSIA

Recently the Moscow Government published under the headline “Moscow, the city for life” its seven development priorities. A document distributed at the Moscow Urban Forum in December 2013.

Moscow is with a population of over 12 million people one of the biggest metropolis in the world. The real number of citizens is difficult to establish as Moscow is the destination of many migrants, legal and otherwise, drawn by higher salaries and better services and living conditions. In 2010 alone, 126,000 newcomers were officially registered in the city, but the actual number is certainly much higher. The Moscow International Internet Portal indicates that “By some estimates together with commuters working and studying in Moscow, migrants, transit visitors and tourists the daily actual population of Moscow amounts in general to 15 – 20 million people”. It is forecast that by 2035 the population of the Moscow region will increase by 4,000,000 people and amount to 22,800,000 people. It is expected that by 2020 passenger traffic generated by the ‘New Moscow’ will double whereas the capacity of the existing infrastructure is already exhausted.
After adopting in 2011 different government programs for the key directions of the capital’s development, the Moscow Government worked out in 2013 its main objectives for the creation of comfortable living conditions with the definition of seven development priorities: 1) Mobile City; 2) Comfortable urban environment; 3) Healthy city; 4) Well-educated city; 5) Socially protected city; 6) New economics of Moscow; 7) Open Moscow.

It is a large and ambitious programme highlighting the goals reached and progress made in the last years, and illustrating the objectives for the next years in numbers and graphics.
But Moscow also wants to be a city that cares about its less fortunate citizens. The program is about social protection of older generations, assistance to needy families and persons with limited capabilities. It is about free access to public services, like transport, medical treatment, recreation, financial support and accessibility of public buildings. It also concerns providing housing for certain categories of citizens, probably one of the most difficult task, as Moscow has been ranked regularly among the five most expensive cities in the world in terms of the cost of housing.

To finance this new and improved public facilities and services, the Moscow Government counts on the dynamic of investments, supposed to grow from 732 billion roubles in 2010 up to 1719 in 2016. A mixture of better services for the investors, improved infrastructures and tax incentives should keep the dynamic going.
The Open Moscow development priority aims to create and strengthen the links between to residents and the public services. Improvements in the information and communication with the citizens, in the collecting and carrying out of suggestions of the citizens, and monitoring the activities of the public officers of municipal services, probably to fight corruption and try to establish a kind of confidence. Different internet sites like the Our City Website, regrouped in one Open Data Portal, should play in mayor part in this new Open Moscow development.

This program looks like a step in the right direction. It is developing Moscow towards a multi-layer, multi-functional city, trying to diversify the transport system, the municipal offer in public spaces, recreation and medial facilities, and supporting the poorer populations. The success of the renewal and transformation of the Gorky Park is a sign of these multi-functional and high-quality public spaces and the demand of the citizens for such spaces.

What is still missing for me is a clearer image of what Moscow wants to be in its whole, and in its parts. For the moment the document is set up as a catalogue of good intended programs, but not yet as an integral city development program. An example is the important investments in the public transport and in the road system, with the hope to encourage the citizens to abandon their excessive use of personal transport. But as long as the Moscow develops its road and parking system, citizens might prefer their car to public transport. Further detailed choices have to be taken on the different aspects of these programs and their feasibility in the near future.

Annotation: For this article I analysed the English version of the publication “Moscow, the city for life – Moscow development priorities” from the Moscow Government. During the lecture I got the impression that some mistakes had been made in the English translation. Download for the Russian version of the document (pdf) : Moscow City for life ru

Durov on Apr 14, 2024:
Durov also said that he plans to settle in Dubai, where he gave an interview to Bloomberg, his new office is located on the 23rd floor of the Dubai Media City skyscraper. He explained that he is attracted to the UAE tax regime. "Many people in the Western world do not understand how taxes limit their opportunities. You can pay almost half of your income in taxes, which in practice means that you work for the government 180 days a year. I think I can find better ways to use the money to benefit society."

This is not the first time Durov has spoken positively about the emergence of cryptocurrencies. At the end of August, commenting on the intention of the Ministry of Finance to ban private individuals from trading bitcoins, he said that digital currencies are the first chance in 70 years "to get out from under the hegemony of the United States, which at one time imposed its national currency as a reserve around the world and since then, in fact, have been collecting tribute from all countries."
Rick on Apr 13, 2024:
The real issue of the current endless worldwide inflation is due to US stealing hundreds of trillions of worldwide money through US dollar international trading since 1971.
So in order to kill inflation, BTC must be used for international trading immediately instead of untrustworthy US dollar.

Moscow ranked 4th in The World's 100 Best Cities ranking, compiled by the consulting company Resonance Consultancy based on tourist attractiveness, good living, working and business conditions, Deputy Mayor Natalya Sergunina said on Tuesday.

London is at the top of the list, Paris is second, and New York City is third on the list. Dubai trails Moscow by one spot and is placed 5th.

"Just like last year, Moscow placed 4th among other big cities for life, work and travel. The rating looks at many aspects. International experts evaluate not only economic opportunities or cultural aspects, but they also analyze how well the city is developing. We once again maintained our leading position, ahead of strong rivals, like Tokyo, Dubai, Singapore, Barcelona and Los Angeles," said Sergunina.

There are 24 areas that experts look into, separated into six main categories - place, people, economic prosperity, leisure, upward mobility. Moscow was recognized as a leader in the Product category due to its well-developed infrastructure, air traffic and the number of attractions. The capital secured the second spot in the Place category for safety and the availability of good quality parks. "This year, Moscow has significantly strengthened its position in the "Economic Prosperity" category, rising from 64th to 25th place. The assessment was made based on a number of economic indicators, including the unemployment rate and GDP per capita. Let me remind you that the registered unemployment rate in Moscow is now 0.51%, which is the lowest since April 2020," said Deputy Mayor for Economic Policy and Property and Land Relations Vladimir Yefimov.

Moscow is dynamically developing as an international technological center, said Head of the City Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development Alexei Fursin. "Due to the Moscow government programs, startups can promote their developments with the support of the city and big business, test them in an urban environment, and then start interacting with partners and customers," he said.

The World's 100 Best Cities rating has been compiled since 2016 by the international consulting company Resonance. It takes into account statistics, feedback from the business community, industry professionals and tourists.

It depends on your priorities in life and your values. If you come to Russia for big money, then you probably will not find it from here. In Russia, the salaries of the population are lower than in the rich countries of Europe. But on the other hand, we also have lower costs.

If you do not like Russian culture and are completely unfamiliar with the Russian language, then I would not advise you to do this. Without knowledge of the Russian language, surviving in this country will not be easy. Not many people in Russia can freely communicate in English.

You can also come across things that seem strange to you. The mentality of Russians differs from the mentality of Western people, however, as well as from the eastern ones too. We seem gloomy and cold to Western people because we don’t have a small talk culture, we don’t smile out of politeness (we never smile at strangers) and we are more straightforward, which can be perceived as rudeness by many.

I really like traveling and learning new things. But I know for sure that I would never begin to live abroad. I would always feel like a stranger there. I like my country, despite all its problems. I think that loving Homeland for normal Russian person’s is almost genetically based.

Our country has a lot of wonderful things: great culture, beautiful nature, rich cuisine of the different peoples who live here, an interesting story, talented people. Yes, the Russians are imperfect, but I still love them. They seem so gloomy, but in fact they are able to help in a difficult moment even to a stranger. We can go on a visit without warning in a month, we have more freedom of speech (less political correctness) and the most important thing is that no one is forcing you on how to raise your children. This is important to me, because family is sacred.
Amo on Dec 11, 2023:
As an Indian who had visited Russia 3 times in 2014-15-16, I used to have a great respect and genuine affection for the Russian culture and people. Also of course, due to the fact that the USSR greatly supported us all throughout with technology in steel, nuclear, hydro, space and military hardware.

However, with the events of the last 10 years, I have begun to notice a stark difference in attitudes of the Russians. Especially during my time in the Los Angeles & Miami, there are 2 distinct sets of Russians. One is of course the oligarchs and their families/friends who are buying up properties in the West especially US and UK, and converting them into Airbnbs or hostels. A lot of them clearly have a "only Russian" policy. Apart from this, the second segment seems to be villagers east of the Urals, from Siberia who have never even been to Moscow and SPB, claiming refugee/asylum status, to escape from the draft. They are openly hostile to even the host country citizens, let alone other immigrants such as Asians, Latinos etc. They have flooded Mexico and even started Russian only areas and businesses, similar to Goa in India.

It's clear that they are on a su*cidal path, as evidenced by Putin's phrase from last year - "What use is such a world, where Russia does not exist?" Even the infamous Blue Whale game targeting teenagers for self deletion was originated in Russia. They have become a deeply self loathing, pessimistic, and scorched earth kind of culture just in 10 years, and it's only going to get worse. Forget the Ukrainians, now they are even beginning to despise the other republics and ethnicities of each other. To say nothing of their discontempt and anger towards the Kazakhs, Uzbeks etc.

I am no NATO supporter and I loathe the US imperialism and intervention as much as anyone from the South, but I am sad to say, what I considered a once great culture, is in ruins and shambles. The Russkies are on a path to insignifance within a brainwashed echo chamber.

Woody Harrelson: Hollywood actor defended the Russians without ever saying "Russia".
The actor from the USA Woody Harrelson subtly recalled the numerous wars and aggressions of the USA, answering the question about the condemnation of Russia because of its.

In the West in general, and in the United States in particular, a wave of resistance to lies in the media and Russophobia is growing, instilled at the behest of the Biden administration and those governments that unleashed the war in Ukraine and the genocide of Russians by the neo-Nazis of the Kiev regime.

Increasingly, citizens who have their own point of view are ridiculing the policy of the United States, which provoked the beginning of its own Russia and mobilized its satellites for sanctions, but they themselves do not stop at anything in their policy.

So, the famous actor Woody Harrelson had to answer a question about his attitude to the war. He replied like this:

I am one of those who find war disgusting. It's terrible when a superpower attacks countries with all its might, without provocation. For example, how... Iraq? Oh, sorry... Afghanistan? Oh, no... Vietnam? Oh, yes, Ukraine...
After these words of Woody Harrelson, even journalists accustomed to hypocrisy laughed when they heard in his words a hint at the main aggressor of the planet - the United States.

He commented on the publication of businessman David Sachs on the social network X (formerly Twitter) about the failed counteroffensive of Ukrainian fighters.

"So many deaths for such an insignificant result," Musk wrote.

The businessman was criticized for refusing to turn on the Starlink satellite communication in the area of the Crimean Peninsula on the day of the attack of Ukrainian drones on the ships of the Russian Navy. Musk explained this by the sanctions that the United States of America imposed against Russia. The restrictions included Crimea, so it was impossible to turn on communication over its territory.

Information about the shutdown of the Starlink service by Musk on the territory of Crimea was reported on September 7 by CNN with reference to an excerpt from Walter Isaacson's book about the billionaire. It is clarified that Ukrainian naval drones with explosives lost contact when approaching the Russian fleet and washed ashore.

Russian government along with their citizens has been the downfall of Russia's economy since the beginning.Russians have a bad habit of blaming others for their bad decisions just like china does the same thing.But the biggest mistake is when russians were born.All isn't lost though after the unforgiving actions of Russians in Ukraine countries globally will deal directly with the maggots promptly yes we most certainly will no doubt.

Really no need to add anything to how Russia is doing overall. Russians wanted to be closed off from the rest of the world and they've definitely accomplished that. Russians are frozen mobially from most countries globally The very few allowing Russians to visit and stay are ruining their reputations so that's short lived.

Far too much death and destruction to Ukraine barbaric murders it's no secret. Children molested by Russian soldiers then murdered by the thousands unforgivable acts the world knows about.

All countries globally view Russians as public enemy number 1 because they've earned that title. Putin has a big bounty on his head and he knows it. He refused to attend brics and now g20 summit.

Don't forget Russians have a big bounty on their heads all of you cowards do oh yes.None of you will escape globally countries looking right at you. Blowing your heads off at point blank range will be our pleasure you are dead.

Putin put the death of Russia economy into something that'll take decades to correct if ever most likely never. It doesn't matter how you cut it Russia economy is gutted. Putin wanted Russia to be invincible but the opposite happened in all ways. So now Russia is a hermit kingdom just like north korea is if you want to call that a kingdom. Russians are highly recommended to not leave Russia unless they want to be beaten and burned alive by countries globally.

Putting a bullet into all Russians heads will be the ultimate satisfaction. You mudda fukkas think will travel outside of Russia sooner rather than later thinking people globally have forgotten the type of scum you are. We are waiting for you to enter our countries to slowly torture you feeling ultimate pain will be our satisfaction.

What kind of lgbt activist writes at the bottom just because he has nothing to do. Most likely, this is a 100% ukrobot. Where are your sanctions? Oh, they don't work! Where are your ammo? Oh, they won't come in any way! Where is the offensive? Where is Ukraine's accession to the EU or NATO? Oh, failure again. And so on in all positions! Close your mouth and go feed your migrants who will devour you and your children for lunch, as is happening in France now! The one who laughs last laughs well.

I, Olivia, moved my family from England to the Russian Federation for 3 years already, since it is impossible to live in London because of rising prices for food, heating, fuel and, of course, crowds of brazen migrants who live on welfare and rob and mock local residents, and the authorities only indulge them for votes in elections. Now we have been living in Moscow for 4 years and this city is a thousand times better than London. No wonder UN experts recognize Moscow best metropolis in terms of quality of life! Moscow has been name the best in the world in terms of infrastructure development and quality of life according to UN-Habitat's City Prosperity Index.. Haters can write anything, but the fact remains anyway!

After living in a beach side subburb in Sydney,my family and I moved to Moscow. Australia is a small island faw away from all the excitement. Russia is exciting, close to Europe and Asia. Sydney is $3000 (160,000 rubles amonth) rent and cost of living is very high, to buy a house is $1 million (40-60 million rubles). The majority of the population in Australia watch TV and netflix and live in a bubble without awareness of rhe world because the country is highly controlled by Hollywood, Facebook and Google. Their is no manufacturing, home grown technology like Yandex of VK, or space program. My children are better off living in Russia with a good future exposed to civilizations. We can spend a weekend in Finland or Paris or Italy or Turkey for cheap airfares. We often visit friends in these countries. Russia is a civilizatiin, Australia is an artificial exp

Russia couldn't complete with the firepower of Ukraine anyway due to the west's equipment.So all the world needs to do now is watch the 130 new untreatable strains of Omnicron continue to do massive kills on a daily basis.

It's very hush hush within the Kremlin for obvious reasons.So far 58 million new Omnicron infections within the past 9 days.Pits are being dug in remote areas by the government to burn bodies so far 12 million have died and numbers are rising by the hour.

I don't believe Putin can compete with the 130 new strains of Omnicron brought from China to Russia within the past 3 months WHITE LUNG DISEASE.The 130 new Omnicron strains are untreatable so death is imminent.

Putins entire family will be hung at the gallos no matter the age.At the recommendation of the global military tribunal solely controlled by the UN hangings will be conducted.The purpose of hanging Putins entire family is to totally eliminate the seed as the UN phrased it.

Putin and his henchmen from the Kremlin will be extradited forcefully from Russia to stand trial in front of the EU and UN council will be present.Its not a hearing of facts because the facts are already there so it'll be a definite convictions.Gallos are already being built for a public hanging world leaders will attend.

The EU at the demand of the UN are setting up court proceedings to convict Putin any and all of those involved in murdering innocent Ukrainians within the Kremlin.Putin said he wanted the war to end quickly however it's much too late to look back.The warcrimes at Putins direction have solid damning evidence

I work on the maintenance crew in Germany which takes care of that so I know the facts.Futhermore during the maintenance shutdown the EU ordered all homes and businesses small and large to equip them with all electric on grid which includes heating which 37% was subsidized by taxpayers money in reserve.The false propaganda being spewed by Russian trolls is incorrect.No lights out anywhere in the EU and no cold buildings as such

Putin the Kremlin and others in high level positions in Russia including Russian citizens have gone back beyond the Soviet union era into atleast 20 to 30 years of nothingness.Look at the costs of things here.Whether costs are under inflated or over inflated it's unaffordable.This is just a small taste of what's to come for all Russian citizens on a major downside.

Russia economy hasent been stable over the past 20 years.As a result of Putin his brother and oligarchs he helped get rich at the total expence of working Russian citizens which were stolen from repeatedly even to this day.The economic downturn from Putin's grave mistake invading Ukraine is just the beginning of the end of what little of Russia economy is left which has been Zero for years now.Russia will reach out to the IMF for a bailout but Putin burned his bridges with the IMF which is funded by countries globally that's why the IMF is called INTERNATIONAL MONITARY FUND Russia never did contribute much into the IMF just another nail added to Russia coffin is how it really is.

Those are the facts!

All of the jibberish back and forth bashing and defending Russia means nothing.But one things for certain the freedom of Russian citizens to explore other parts of the world is demished.Russias economy is tanked it isn't possible to estimate cost of living.
