      What is right - in the form of an answer - not just a certain number of their diplomats are sent out, but the number of diplomats on both sides is evened out ... Thus, these creatures will not be able to send our diplomats back.

          His US State Department was going to replace in this position with some kind of religious orthodox to strengthen his agents of influence in the Russian Federation!

          This ambassador reacts so nervously due to the fact that at the end of his work in Russia our people handed him such a "surprise". Now in the State Department he will be called to the carpet and will be stripped of his severance pay: he didn’t do it, ambassadors were sent, sanctions do not apply - the end of his career, where after that ...

        He also noted that 190 people are working at the Russian embassy in Washington, while the US embassy in Moscow has 1100, possibly hinting that the number of Americans who are asked to leave the country will be greater than the number of Russians expelled from the United States . [quote]

    The US Embassy in Russia protested to the Russian side in response to retaliatory measures against American diplomats, Ambassador John Tefft is deeply disappointed with Moscow’s decision

    Did the ambassador expect something else? It would then be necessary to put pressure on your own State Department. He knows very well that in such cases the sign of "mirroring" is used in such cases. Our 30 diplomats were expelled - collect things and American. In the exact same amount. Our property was seized from us? For God's sake. But in this case, do not bay, that they will also take something from you ...


    Quote: Zibelew
    What is right - in the form of an answer - not just a certain number of their diplomats are sent out, but the number of diplomats on both sides is evened out ... Thus, these creatures will not be able to send our diplomats back.

    They can send them now. But then we will send. So many wives. They thought that if we did not aggravate the situation during the period when the new American president came to power, hoping that the new one would not be the same as the first black president of America. They did not want to solve this issue in the way that all similar ones are being solved - plz. Wait for an answer

        The Federal Network Agency of Germany has proposed not to include five projects related to Nord Stream - 2 in the long-term plan because of possible risks. This was reported by TASS with reference to the press release of the department.

        The report said that the five projects that are associated with the expansion of the Nord Stream are too unreliable. Projects should be accepted into the network development plan only when there are permits for the expansion of Nord Stream - 2.

        Since 17 of July this year, closed hearings on the gas pipeline construction project have been held in the German city of Stralsund. Representatives of municipal and land organizations and departments examined public complaints, as well as proposals for the implementation of the project.

      In-in! I also did not understand something of the stormy joy of many VO commentators. There is only legal interstate practice. One country sent diplomats to another country. This other country has the right to a symmetrical response. I would still understand the joy if Russia were the first to begin the process of "expelling" American diplomats.

    And in connection with what delight? Of the countermeasures here, only the suspension of the use of warehouses and cottages. As for the requirement to bring the number of American mission diplomats in line with the number of Russian, this is a reduction to the stipulated norm. The question is, where did the Foreign Ministry look when the Americans quietly exceeded their quota? Some kind of circus!


    The circus for those who have firmly stuck in their heads that the USSR has broken up ...
    Who knows that the Union did not break up, but was destroyed as a result of the loss to the West in the ХV 1945-1991, he understands that winners dominate the entire post-Soviet space. Occupants at all times behave the same, i.e. they do not ask the vanquished who, where and how much to put, but they make a colony from the captured country, they command as they want and use its resources to the fullest. Woe to the vanquished ...

    "Crimean" sanctions against Russia extended five countries

    And at this time:
    "Perhaps in the near future the world will face a new, previously unprecedented form of hybrid warfare, namely its biological component.
    And this is not about military viruses or bacteria, but about macroorganisms that possess not only a high level of physical damage inflicted, but, worst of all, their own intelligence and are therefore capable of self-learning.
    One of the most likely candidates for the role of such a superweapon is the Siberian bear, one of the subspecies of the brown bear.
    The body of this ruthless predator grows to two meters, with a weight of 400 to 800 kilograms (in males, females are slightly less). In this case, the length of the claws reaches 8.5 cm, and the fangs - 7 - 7.5 cm or more.
    The hardness of claws and fangs reaches 8.5 units. on the Mohs scale, which exceeds the hardness of topaz and only slightly inferior to corundum.
    Adding here a bite force of 700-800 N (a sheet of alloy steel bites up to 3 mm thick), as well as a reaction speed not exceeding 0.02 seconds (this is about five times higher than that of the world's best hockey goalkeepers!), We get an almost perfect machine for the killings.
    Such "trifles" as the ability to easily catch up with a horse, or the ability to disguise itself so that the animal is imperceptible at a distance of more than 1-2 m, or an IQ level that reaches 90-95 units in individual specimens (average - 80), which corresponds to 102-105 % (!!!) Central European, you can’t even mention it against this background.
    Siberian bears easily adapt to any conditions, including urban, able to organize groups of up to 30-50 individuals, conducting coordinated actions.
    One adult male controls an area of ​​up to 1 square meters. km, and perceives all objects located at a distance of less than 000 km (the so-called agro zone) as unconditionally hostile and attacks without hesitation.
    Against this background, reports about a campaign for the seizure of cubs (and exclusively males!) Of Siberian bears throughout Siberia, from the Urals to Anadyr, and their placement in special centers, concentrated mainly in hard-to-reach mountainous areas, look rather alarming. Buryatia and Altai.
    The number of animals located there already exceeds 25 thousand individuals, and the training activities conducted with them, according to experts-medologists, clearly speak of an upcoming expansion.
    So, without exception, bears in these centers are forcibly deprived of the opportunity to hibernate, which increases the level of their viciousness. In addition, the diet is very indicative - animals are fed exclusively with honey and meat products purchased, bypassing sanctions, in Ukraine or from Ukrainian producers.
    As a result, all animals get persistent food orientation, and become unable to eat other foods. For example, one of them starved for almost 120 days, not paying attention to the meat offered to him from Tambov, Yaroslavl, Orenburg and Saratov, but he enjoyed eating similar products from Poltava, Kryzhopol, Berdichev and Zhmerinka.
    These (and some unmentioned) facts allow us to make an unambiguous conclusion - this winter Ukraine may be subject to the invasion of tens of thousands of predators artificially modified to eat easily digestible resources localized on its (Ukraine) territory, primarily protein.
    Additional evidence is the feeding method used in the centers - bears are taught to look for food in fortifications (trenches, dugouts, etc.), built according to the standards of the Armed Forces and / or NATO.
    It turns out that the target of the attack can be any of the redoubts erected or occupied by Ukrainian soldiers, and such an attack will look like a natural process, i.e. the opportunity to prove to the world community the presence of aggressive pre-planned intentions will no longer be.
    A possible defense against such an attack could be fighting rams, which are found in large numbers in the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but there are doubts about their ability to provide effective counteraction in conditions of insufficient funding.
    Most likely, the terrible predators, reduced to 404 battle groups, will be abandoned on the territory of Ukraine, with the order to start massive terror no earlier than the moment when a stable snow cover is established, under the guise of troops being transferred to the West-2017 exercises. According to some reports, a signal to the beginning will be a fragment of one of the series of the animated film "Masha and the Bear" transmitted from the Medvezhut satellite.
    A sign that the events are proceeding according to the indicated scenario will be the sending of empty military echelons to the East after September 20th, which will serve as an irrefutable argument for those who understand ... "
