Results of the week. Eloquent silence of Russia
The agency Bloomberg, citing its sources, wrote that Vladimir Putin plans to sign a package of documents (or a decree) after the inauguration, the purpose of which should be to accelerate economic growth and improve the quality of life for Russians.
At first, the all-knowing Bloomberg, citing all knowledgeable sources familiar with the situation (from any), announced that the new government would spend around 10 trillion rubles on social projects and economic development. They will invest, they say in education and medicine so much that it will not seem like a little ... And then Dmitry Peskov spoke. What, says, 10 trillion? From where, says 10 trillion. Yes, we say, we don’t know the numbers of such people when it comes to education and healthcare. In general, we are now in deep thought. Well, maybe Peskov was mistaken after all ...

The Senate of the Parliament of Kazakhstan has ratified a protocol that allows the use of the ports of Kuryk and Aktau in the Caspian Sea for the transfer of US military cargo to Afghanistan. In addition, the agreement on military cooperation between Kazakhstan and the United States for 2018-2021 years, signed in September 2017, provides for the construction of a NATO military base in Aktau.
The sixth fleet of the United States, on any, already goes to the shores of Kazakhstan. All by the famous unforgettable manuals Jen Psaki. - Straight through the Rostov mountains, skirting Czechoslovakia. We are waiting for the announcement: it requires a burlatskaya brigade for dragging one aircraft carrier strike group of the US Navy with a drag.
Nazarbayev is a joker? .. Or is there really no time for jokes.

EW in Russian
The American FoxNews channel came out with a report in which US General General Tony Thomas reports on the difficulties that the American aviation in Syria. According to General Thomas, the commander of the US Special Operations Forces, US Air Force planes, carrying out air support to the US Special Forces in the SAR, are faced with active counteraction of electronic warfare.
Not yet C-300, but ... Russia supplied Syria with an additional batch of the Pantsir air defense system
What happens if the CAA receives the C-300?
By their means of EW, they prevent our servicemen from coordinating actions! - give them - more sanctions, smart and beautiful, and we - more funds from the budget, because 700 billions of greens for the “defense” becomes not enough. - A summary of the statements of the American general. There, somewhere else in the text, there was an important addition for the American senators, who were over eighty years old, “and they also called you earthworms.”

At the moment, the Syrians do not have C-300 operators, at least nothing is heard about their preparation.
Accordingly, if these air defense systems are delivered to Syria, then the operators will be Russian, or at best - the Syrians, again under the guidance of our specialists.
Israelis, knowing that Russians are in a position, will not strike at this position, or near it. Fraught with it. It will all end with the C-300 setting on combat duty and the duty "concerns" of the relevant Israeli structures.

Shut off the water
The Ukrainian Cabinet has decided to submit to the Council for National Security and Defense (NSDC) the issue of banning the transport of Russian vessels in the internal waters of the country.
The main question here is not even when Ukraine is going to cut off the rivers Sluch, Styr, Vorskla or Pripyat for Russian “nuclear submarines”, but about the owners of which Russian companies still have a mind to use the internal waters of Ukraine. Indeed, it is one thing when the Ukrainian border guards in the pirate capture format are dragged to their shore, and quite another when the sailors on ships of Russian jurisdiction themselves are forced to send their ships to the “non-square” waters.

This is the "friendly" step of our overseas "partners."
The more “knots” appear on the fabric of mutual relations, the more there will be mutual insults and complaints, the harder the blows to each other will be, the less chance there will be a restoration of normal dialogue.
Ukrainians systematically make "chain dogs".
And this dog will then rush at us, at Russia.
And in relation to him, the only possible impact is possible - destruction.
I admire the scum who is called "Americans" and how systematically, thoroughly, they weave their intrigues for decades to come and lay mines.
And I am furious at the idleness and the toothlessness of our leaders. Absolutely useless people. They don't even think one step further. On one day!

The Armenian opposition makes it clear that if a person from her circles does not become a prime minister, the protests will continue. And if the party of the parliamentary majority passes the position, as the Party of Regions (Ukraine) did at one time, after what time the opposition will declare that “Armenia and Russia are not on the way”? Or is it still not the case?
80 trucks will block roads and bridges in Armenia. Opposition goes for broke
Armenian failure of Russian soft power
“Medical” fact: the concentration of an opposition that disagrees with nothing is especially great in those countries that are geographically close to the borders of Russia. The Armenian opposition - the guys are funny and perky. At first, I didn’t like electricity tariffs, then I stopped liking Serzh Sargsyan, now Sargsyan-energy “Maidan” in the past - the question on the agenda is: why shouldn’t a person who is supported by no more than 8% of the population really have to rule the country? .. from the podium can shout, and grow a beard, and in general he is for all the good against all the bad. Even Karabakh promised to raise to the Swiss level - and not in height, - it is already on it ... in terms of economy ...

Smart American missiles in a terrible Russian captivity
April 14 is a banal test of the defense capability of the Syrian missile defense umbrella, which is a kind of “miniature” of the Russian military air defense (air defense missile defense) due to the presence in the armament of medium-range anti-aircraft missile systems, as well as short-range anti-aircraft missile and artillery systems "Pantsir-С2".
Syrian air defense did not miss. The General Staff presented the wreckage of downed coalition rockets.
No missiles they have! The Pentagon has declared that Russia has no American missiles
Attention! Attention! Urgent message from the panel on the rights and freedoms of metal structures.
Russia, without shame and conscience, holds the peaceful wreckage of American missiles hostage. We demand to immediately release the hostages and start an international investigation under the auspices of the organization “Say yes!” To democracy! ”At the same time, the issue of the arbitrariness of Russia will be raised in the UN Security Council, where the Russian Federation must undoubtedly be denied the right of veto. The very possibility of depriving the right of veto for Russia is legally supported by the acts of Napoleon Bonaparte of 1811 of the year and Charles XII of 1708 of the year as the monarchs of the states of enlightened Europe.

100 frigates, 100 destroyers, nuclear submarines - also 100 ...
It became clear from the president’s address that a number of nuclear deterrent devices were developed in Russia in a “secrecy setting”, for which considerable funding was allocated. It remains unclear only why the Americans were warned that their efforts to build a missile defense system would be completely useless.
Give us the construction of 100 destroyers for 2020 year! Give us the construction of 100 nuclear submarines for the next birthday of the head of state! Give us a couple of AUG next Friday! Well, do not forget for those same 10 trillion on education and medicine.
It is worth recalling that here Dmitry Medvedev, who has no money, but he is still holding himself, invited Barack Obama to come and see how our economy is “torn to pieces”. In general, we say "gop" long before jumping ...

If you bring Kuzyu to mind - rest with a good repair of the hull, modernize the power plant (there are only Krylov system boilers - such a headache ...), then with the appropriate support of the AUG with him at the head - a very weak sea fist.
Today's bet on the small and mid-size fleet is not from a good life. But, given the noticeable progress in the development of carriers of all types, including sea-based, the size of the ships began to lose importance. As an example, dreadnoughts, battleships and battleships that have gone nowhere - the goal is painfully good.
kit88
At this stage, as I understand it, we are not talking about the development of the Navy. Only keeping afloat so as not to lose frames and technically not to fall behind, so that in the future, when opportunities arise, to build a powerful fleet.
Now we can invest in the nuclear triad - there is parity. We can strengthen our ground forces, we can build new aircraft, air defense systems, develop missile weapons. There will be money for all this, at least expensively, but firstly - it is necessary for the defense of the country, and secondly - the budget will pull out. The very existence of Russia as a state depends on all this.
And the fleet, of course, is important, but does not play a leading role in the defense of the country. It will be important when we become not only defending, but also attacking. That's when you need a powerful argument on the ocean theater.
Now we can not build their own X-NUMX tikandorog, 20 arliberk and ten aircraft carriers. And to build less - it makes no sense.
Let's wait. 20-30 years ...
The best future in Georgian
In the published documents of the new Georgian initiative called “Step to a better future”, it is in fact acknowledged that the residents of Abkhazia and South Ossetia do not consider themselves to be citizens of Georgia and are not going to become them.
“Tbilisi has now announced another“ peace initiative ”called“ Step to a better future ”... The text of the document specifically states: participation in the advertised preferential Georgian programs will not mean confirmation or acquisition of Georgian citizenship for the Abkhaz and South Ossetians. Thus, the official Tbilisi finally admitted the obvious: the residents of Abkhazia and South Ossetia do not consider themselves to be citizens of Georgia and do not wish to become such, even for generous promises of all kinds of benefits, ”said Maria Zakharova, a spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, in an interview with the Rain channel. According to her, “the recognition of this fundamentally important moment allows us to hope that in time Tbilisi will be able to fully realize and accept the political reality.”
Will anything change in the relations of Abkhazia and South Ossetia with Georgia? Will the future be brighter?
Georgian Prime Minister Georgi Kvirikashvili probably believes that yes. At the meeting of the Cabinet, he stated that the initiative “Step to a better future” is aimed precisely at “improving the humanitarian and socio-economic situation of the residents of Abkhazia and South Ossetia”. He even cited specific areas for improvement: “expanding and simplifying trade along dividing lines, creating additional opportunities for obtaining quality education and creating a mechanism whereby Abkhazians and Ossetians will have easier access to Georgia’s achievements as a result of its development, including the right to use visa-free regime and free trade with the European Union. "
It is possible that the peace initiative is aimed at the opposite of what was voiced by Comrade Zakharov. The course of Tbilisi is known for a long time: aspiration to join NATO. And the “better future” for the residents of Abkhazia and South Ossetia implies the resolution of the territorial problem according to a soft Georgian scenario. Peaceful. Education, programs, trade, visa-free regime, Europe ... is it tempting?
While in the Foreign Ministry of the Russian Federation they cheerfully report about “they will be able to fully understand and accept political reality,” the mentioned reality is farther and farther away from propaganda.

New stage of the Russian catastrophe
The geopolitical catastrophe of the Russian civilization did not remain outside the borders of the last century, but continues today. She even entered "a new, even more sinister stage," says Yuri Selivanov.
We are talking about "the enormous weakening of the total aggregate potential of Russian civilization, which fatally affected the place and degree of influence of Russia in the world around." And that "is of key importance for the chances of any civilization not only for successful development, but even for elementary survival," the columnist believes.
Here are the arguments.
What is happening now in almost all national republics, these “torn off pieces of Russian territory, which in most cases have never even had their own statehood on a historically significant scale,” has one denominator. This, the analyst further points out, “a total and final cleansing of everything that is somehow related to Russian civilization and to historical the borders of Russia. "
Where they are trying to resist, in the course goes brute force. As, for example, in Armenia: the pro-Russian government of which became the object of aggression of the next “Maidan”.

And our people and "not ours" for some reason united under the idea of putting dust in the eyes of a neighbor. And, as practice shows, the attitude towards children in our country is still far from complete state care.
They encroach on the interests of the Russian Federation
“A whole series of critical geopolitical and operational-strategic events are unfolding right before our eyes in recent days. And practically each of them prepares the most conscious part of our society for extremely harsh and alarming scenarios for the development of the situation both directly at our western and southern borders and in the Middle East zone of strategic interests of the Russian Federation, ”writes columnist Yevgeny Damantsev. In his opinion, the trend is explosive. It can be traced not only in the accelerated preparation of highways and railway junctions in Eastern Europe for the transfer of heavy armored vehicles and tank bridge-laying vehicles, but also in building up NATO military contingents in Romania, Poland and the Baltic countries, on the border with the Western Military District.
But there is also Syria. The Americans are planning to entrust the “dirtiest” work associated with attempts to ground assault the positions of the Syrian army, the armies of the Arabian coalition. The reformatting of the site of the UN General Assembly under the rightless one-sided court is ideal for the United States. From this point on, any pre-planned provocation, any movie from the “White Helmets” can be a convenient reason for unleashing a regional confrontation, and even in the “legal” wrapper.

At the moment, this is the only venue that could regulate world issues, itself has completely discredited itself, as the League of Nations once did.
Therefore, in the case of using the above document, Russia and China can also ignore the decisions on the document A / RES / 377 (V), especially since they, as correctly stated in the article, will be anti-Russian.
I believe that after the conflict in the Middle East, provided that the whole world does not flush, a new organization may appear instead of the UN.

IDF confirms
There are reports from Syria that Israel struck another blow to the country's territory. The press service of the IDF confirms these data, stating that the blow was struck on the firing point of the Syrian army.
Quote from the press service of the Israel Defense Forces: “The IDF will not tolerate attempts to strike at the sovereignty of our country, at the safety of our citizens. The IDF considers the Syrian regime to be responsible for what is happening on its territory. ”
According to Syrian data, in the course of the CAA armed clash with militants in the south of the country, one of the mines exploded in the northern part of the Golan Heights. It is reported that, in all likelihood, we are talking about crazy ammunition, which flew over the positions of terrorists.
According to the latest data, one artillery gun was destroyed by Syrian government forces.
At the same time in Israel itself it is believed that the ammunition that exploded in the north of the Golan Heights was there by accident, that is, the CAA did not conduct targeted shelling. However, the realization of this fact did not prevent striking precisely the government forces of the Syrian Arab Republic ...

There will be relationships, there will be sanctions!
In the Indian press, citing senior officials in the Department of Defense, it speaks of the claims that the Indian Ministry presented to the United States. The reason for bringing claims to Washington from New Delhi was that the United States made India understand unambiguously the following: if you cooperate in the military-technical sphere with Russia and buy weapons from Russia, anti-Indian measures will be taken in response.
We are talking about the requirements of the United States to comply with anti-Russian sanctions under the so-called CAATSA Act. To put it simply, its purpose is to extend sanctions to those who enter into trade relations with Russia in the arms market and in the energy sector. India has such a relationship for many years and today declares its interest in acquiring the C-400 air defense system.
What is India left with after giving up the FGFA? On specific Indian claims for Su-57
Meanwhile, India continues to discuss the decision of the military-industrial leadership to withdraw from the joint FGFA program with Russia. A few days after the decision of New Delhi, statements appeared that claims were claims, but what was the result that India was going to replace the project, on which years and considerable funds had already been spent?
The report of the military analysts of India for the country's defense department, which criticized the stealth characteristics of the Russian Su-57, is also being discussed. Namely, Su-57 actually had to become the basis for a joint Russian-Indian development. The report says that the flows created by the engines of the so-called first stage allow fighters to be detected by radars. It was noted that in American fighters this problem was largely solved with the help of the design features of "special partitions covering the engine surface", as well as the shape of the airframe itself, partially covering the work of the power plants. In addition, there are other reasons for the "low stealth characteristics" of the Su-57 fighter, which, however, are not officially reported ...
Against this background, the Western press briskly states: that in this situation India has one option left - to become a partner of the American F-35 program!

The balance did not converge
The Secretary General of the Council of Europe, Thorbjørn Jagland, called the fact that Russia does not pay contributions to the Council’s budget “completely unacceptable”.
“I consider Russia's refusal to make a financial contribution unacceptable,” Jagland said. At the same time, he said: "I am in favor of Russia remaining in the Council of Europe."
Recall, the delegation of the Russian Federation at PACE in April 2014 of the year was deprived of its main powers because of the events in Ukraine and the reunification of the Crimea with the Russian Federation. In response, the delegation of the Russian Federation stated that it was refusing to work under such conditions, and in 2016-2017, it did not send an application to confirm its authority because of the Russophobic sentiments in Strasbourg. At the end of June 2017, it became known that Moscow was suspending the payment of its contribution to the Council of Europe due to the non-participation of the delegation of the Russian Federation in the work of PACE.

"Absolutely ineffective" Russia
After Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about the latest developments of the Russian military-industrial complex, all of Washington’s propaganda efforts were thrown into a propaganda campaign: they say, in fact, Russia is a backward country, and its armament is outdated and inferior to the Western in most parameters.
A new impetus for “debunking” the military power of Russia was the missile attack of the United States and its allies on Syria. Pentagon spokesman Dana White announced at a specially convened briefing that the air defense systems operating in Syria failed to intercept any American missiles. “Of the land-based missiles launched by the Bashar Assad regime, almost all were launched after the last of our missiles hit the target. Russia's missile defense systems were completely ineffective, ”said White.
Forming the image of Russia as a colossus on clay feet was an indispensable informational event for all those who prepared the attack on our country, starting with Napoleon. Yes, just need to remember that, for example, the Nazis, their powerful propaganda went sideways!
The leadership of the Reich itself was thoroughly imbued with propaganda, believed in it and began to trust the materials of the Goebbels department more than reports of Canaris subordinates. As a result, from the very first days of the war, the German military faced unpleasant surprises. Russian armaments, the quality of technology, the fruits of industrialization - all this was contrary to propaganda and often put the command of the German troops at a standstill.

But in general, is it really worth being so distracted by all these passages from the USA about the quality of domestic weapons, if the Americans themselves, recognizing the quality and unpretentiousness of still Soviet weapons, quite well so bluntly declare that they will start producing Soviet weapons on their own and on its territory? That's what you need to write about.
From the same opera "expert opinions" from China, India, Azerbaijan or Ukraine, etc. about the poor quality of Russian weapons, which are sometimes reprinted by our media.
The armament market is fairly stable and financially attractive, and Russia takes second place on it, but many competitors do not like it, so they give their "professional expertise" to the ground on the basis of photos and drawings.

“Mriya” in Ukrainian means “dream”. So called a large transport aircraft An-225. Now this name bears the hotel "Resort and Spa" - the most expensive hotel in Crimea with presidential villas.
The Mriya hosted the 4 th Economic Forum. Chairman of the organizing committee of the forum - the head of the Republic of Crimea Sergey Aksenov. According to the organizers, the forum was visited by 3000 people from 70 countries.
Andrei Nazarov, co-chairman of the organizing committee of the forum, solemnly concluded that international interest in the Yalta forum is growing higher than in the world forum in Davos, Switzerland. True, Mokey Rusinov writes, world-famous companies that have flipped out of the chairs of the Davos forum to Mriya chairs were not reported by Nazarov ...
And what did he say? He said that the signing of agreements worth 150 billion rubles is expected. However, only one of the projects planned at the forum was declassified. According to Nazarov, this is the creation on the territory of the Crimea ... a goat farm. And here is its value: 6 billion rubles. Such is the innovation!
The forum turned out to be discriminatory for ... Russians.
Foreign guests did not have to pay an organization fee (by the way, an impressive amount: 130.000 rubles). However, this fee was obligatory for the Russians!
Such an infringement of its citizens is indicative: for the sake of reports on the “representatives from 70 countries” attending the forum, the Crimean authorities took the money to hold the forum in the pockets of Russian participants and taxpayers. Tricky plan?
