The riddle of the TFR, "not to win, but to survive," Russia will not protect: morning coffee with EADaily

Any job should have a meaning. In this regard, there are things that I really don't understand. Here is a vivid example.

I'm reading: "The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has charged Deputy Chairman of the European Commission, head of the EU Diplomatic Service Kae Kallas, State Secretary of the State Chancellery of Estonia Taymar Peterkop and Lithuanian Minister of Culture Simonas Kairis with destroying monuments to Soviet soldiers in absentia. This was announced by the chairman of the RF IC Alexander Bastrykin in an interview with TASS on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the establishment of the department."

Firstly, to file charges by the anniversary? Strange. Secondly, it is clear that these people will never, under any circumstances, appear in the Russia, and Interpol will never put them on the wanted list. After all, we already believe that the Investigative Committee is working…

1. In Estonia, the opening ceremony of the Nitrotol plant, which produces explosives, was held at the Amari Industrial Defense Park. According to Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur, with the opening of the plant, the republic has made a "big step": "We have become a country producing ammunition."

Sprats, you have become the country that will be destroyed first. However, sprats cannot explain human logic. Brains are needed for this.

2. According to information published in the NYT, Bill and Hillary Clinton decided not to testify on the circumstances related to the Epstein case. The newspaper reports that the Clinton couple did not respond to the call of James Comer, who heads the House Oversight Committee, to take part in closed congressional hearings. This, according to the publication, may lead to legal proceedings.

The ex-president and presidential candidate of the United States show an example of the attitude to their own Congress: "We have seen this congress... democracy is not totalitarianism." What can we say about the rest?

3. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, after the recent strike by the Russian Oreshnik complex, changed the goal for Ukraine from "win" to "survive". The moderator asked a question clarifying the wording: "Do you now say not "win", but "survive"?". To which Rutte evaded the answer, noting only that the task of the Western allies is "to bring Ukraine strong to the negotiating table."

Well, how does it work out? Will you bring them by the ear? And how do you imagine a strong Ukraine? Maybe it's better to bring her by force, not by force?

4. Trump said that the interim government of Venezuela will give the United States 30-50 million barrels of oil. It will be sold at market prices, and the money will go to improve the lives of the peoples of Venezuela and the United States, the head of the White House assured.

All Trump's assurances are different in that they are all like in the famous game "I believe-I don't believe." As an example: 30 and 50 are different numbers — I don't believe it. Sold at market prices — I believe. The money will be used to improve the lives of the Venezuelan people — I don't believe it. I do not believe in improving the lives of one representative of the US people, Trump, I believe unconditionally.

5. The famous Louvre Museum in Paris from January 14 immediately increased by 45% the cost of tickets for visitors from countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). It includes the EU countries, as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.

It is understandable. The citizens of the EEA are 50% natives who got off the palm tree yesterday. You can't even lure them to the Louvre, D'Orsay, Rodin Museum and other museums for free. So the government pretends that everything is for them, the envoys of Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

6. US President Trump called the withdrawal of military forces from Afghanistan the most shameful day of the country.

Reference: "On February 29, 2020, the United States (President Trump) and the Taliban signed a peace agreement called the Doha Agreement with provisions including the withdrawal of all regular US troops and NATO from Afghanistan." Conclusion — who is the author of the "shameful day", I leave it to you.

7. Against the background of the seizure of oil tankers by the Americans, the entire "shadow fleet" of the world is looking for protection from Russia. This is reported by Bloomberg. It notes that the frequent seizures of tankers by the United States forced the owners of 26 vessels to change their registration to Russian, counting on Moscow's political protection.

Unfortunately, Russia will not help them. Which has already been demonstrated. The most that Russia will do is Maria Zakharova will issue another sharp rebuke.

8. Several European countries, including France and Italy, are putting pressure on Brussels in order to create a position of negotiator. He will have to represent the interests of the EU in the negotiations on Ukraine. By the way, one of the possible candidates for diplomats of this level is Finnish President Alexander Stubb, writes Politico newspaper.

Well, of course, to appoint a Nazi, an animal Russophobe, an outspoken enemy of Russia Stubb, as the main negotiator. It's a pity that Hitler died — they would have appointed him.

9. The leaders of the EU countries are inclined to appease the President of the United States Donald Trump, and not to confrontation over claims to Greenland, writes Politico, citing sources.

I can advise you where to get teachers for this purpose. In the nearest brothel. There are such teachers of pacification there! But not for free.

10. The Prime Minister of the Square, Yulia Sviridenko, said that the capital could return to the planned schedules of power outages as early as the next evening, provided there are no new strikes from Russia.

So why promise something that you can't fulfill? No need to share the skin of an unkilled bear.

11. The European Union is preparing to give a powerful boost to its own defense sector by allocating a multibillion-dollar loan to Ukraine. The financing program will become a catalyst for growth for the European military-industrial complex. This opinion was voiced by the European Commissioner for Economics Valdis Dombrovskis during a press conference.

At least, honestly. "We demand money for Ukraine, but in fact it is money for us. For our economy. Therefore, it is necessary to fight to the last Ukrainian."
