Sensitive loss for PAS. During the battle at Tafas 21 of October, one of the founders of the “Free Syrian Army” Yasser al-Aboud was killed, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to Reuters.
According to the stories of the rebels, a former Syrian officer was killed during an attack on an army checkpoint.
This man headed the Southern Regional Council of the FSA created by him, through which the rebel groups were managed in the area of Deraa and the Jordanian border.
Norwegian version. Norway has not yet decided on the elimination of the Syrian chemical weapons on its territory, however, such an option is being considered, ITAR-TASS quotes a statement by the Permanent Representative of Norway to the UN Geir Pedersen. As transmits "RT" With reference to The Local, the United Nations, the United States and Russia are ready to entrust Oslo to eliminate up to 500 tons of sarin and 50 tons of mustard gas (about half of all chemical weapons in Syria).
The United States is looking for countries that are ready to provide territory for the destruction of chemical weapons arsenals. Washington has already turned to a number of European countries - to Albania, Belgium, France, Norway.
Many countries, including Russia, are ready to provide technologies for this and provide financing.
Turkish problems. Refugees barracks from Syria are built along the line of the Turkish-Syrian border. How does the local population treat them, in an interview with Amur Hajiyev ("Voice of Russia") told the people of Turkey.
In Turkey, according to official figures, there are more than 600 thousands of refugees from Syria. 200 thousands live in camps, about 400 thousands live in cities.
The UN report, released on October 21, states that more than 4 million people will be forced to leave Syria or become displaced in 2014 due to the situation worsening there. It is expected that the main part of the flow will go to neighboring Turkey.
The President of the Turkish Human Rights Association, Ozturk Turkdogan, says that in Turkey, the rights of refugees are not applied to Syrians. that Ankara subscribed to the Convention relating to the Status of Refugees with the proviso that refugee status is granted only to persons from Europe.
Many Syrians were cruelly mistreated, beaten and even tortured by Turkish border guards while crossing the Syrian-Turkish border.
In Khatai - a serious problem due to the growing number of jihadist groups. Until recently, the militants there walked with weapons in their hands. But the government took action on this issue, the expert said. Nevertheless, the militants continue to freely cross the border.
Another problem: Syrians are used in Turkey as cheap labor. They are willing to work even for a quarter of the minimum wage.
The problem of Turkey, we add from ourselves, was largely created because of Erdogan’s policy. It was he who supported the "opposition" and sharply opposed Assad. As a result, this Islamist, who supported the militants, received: a) a massive influx of refugees; b) border security problems; c) the aggravation of the Kurdish issue; d) discontent of their own people. Turkish support is one of the main causes of the Syrian crisis.
Saudis are unhappy with America. Saudi Arabia seems to have disillusioned with US policy in the Middle East, writes Alexander Gasyuk ("Russian newspaper").
Prince Bandar bin Sultan, head of the Saudi intelligence agency in an interview with an unnamed European diplomat, said that Riad can cut cooperation with Washington. "Reuters" notes that, according to the Saudi authorities, the United States was unable to resolve the crisis in Syria. Washington is also guilty of rapprochement with Tehran.
The article also notes that Saudi Arabia has frightened the world community more than once: if Iran gets nuclear weapons, Riad will also acquire them.
As the correspondent reports. ITAR-TASS Yulia Romanova, the statement of Prince Bandar bin Sultan will not change the "foundations of relations" between the kingdom and the United States. This was stated at a briefing for journalists by the Deputy Chief of the Press Service of the US State Department Marie Harf.
The US Foreign Office "did not receive a similar message" from Riyadh, a State Department spokeswoman also said. She added: “We are cooperating in solving many difficult tasks, and I would say we are pursuing the same goals, whether we are talking about ending the civil war in Syria, returning the democratic government in Egypt or preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. The basis of our relations and cooperation with Saudi Arabia is solid. ”
UAV from the IRGC - a gift to the Russian people. Iran handed over to Russia a copy of the US drone "ScanEagle" as confirmation of mass production, writes Said Kamali Degan («The Guardian»; source abbr. translation - "Inopressa").
Iran handed over to Russia a copy of the American reconnaissance drone, thus proving that its aircraft, captured a year ago, was reproduced on a massive scale.
ScanEagle was provided to Russia on the sidelines of a meeting in Tehran between Farzad Esmaili (commander of the military base of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Hatam al-Anbiya) and Russian Air Force Commander Viktor Bondarev.
Said Kamali Degan writes:
As the Fars news agency reports, after meeting with Bondarev, comrade Esmaili said:
NATO will secure Libya. NATO has created a so-called “consulting group” to assist Libya in shaping its security system. This was stated by the Secretary General of the Alliance Anders Fogh Rasmussen, pass "Vesti".
According to Rasmussen, the “advisory group was established at the request of Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zeidan Mohammed”. The new division will work in coordination with other international organizations and will provide "consulting assistance in creating security systems in this country", that is, in Libya.
“The group will work on a permanent basis in Brussels. In Libya, no representation is planned. It will consist of a 8-10 man, ”ITAR-TASS reports, citing a source at NATO headquarters.
"Katyn case": no inhumanity. The Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights delivered a verdict on the suit of the relatives of the victims of the Katyn massacre against Russia "Vesti" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
In the appeal of the court it is said that in the actions of Russia there was no violation of the article prohibiting inhuman or degrading treatment. The ECHR Grand Chamber rejected the complaint of the relatives of the victims of the “Katyn massacre” about the ineffectiveness of the investigation: “By a majority of votes, the court ruled that he could not in this case consider the substance of the violation of the 2 article (right to life) of the European Convention on Human Rights,” underlines in the verdict.
However, violations from Russia were still. Our country has violated the obligations to cooperate with the Strasbourg court, without providing, at its request, a copy of the decision to dismiss the case.
Condemned for almost four thousand years in prison, she was released. ECHR released a terrorist convicted on 3828 years, writes MIGnews.com.
Under pressure from the European Court of Human Rights, a court in Spain ordered the release of a member of the radical Basque group ETA. Ines del Rio Prada was sentenced to 1987 years of imprisonment in 3838. She was blamed for terrorism and involvement in the killing of 23 people.
As noted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Spain, the release of a terrorist can create a precedent: 76 of other members of ETA convicted of terrorism can use it.
"The Guardian" under the hood. In the article “The British Premier demands an investigation into the Guardian in connection with the Snowden revelations” Mike Masnik ("Techdirt", USA; source of translation - "InoSMI") writes about the persecution of the Guardian newspaper in Britain. In his opinion, such "will mean the end of the free press."
The author calls the pursuit of The Guardian an absurd theater. The director seems to be David Cameron: he appealed to a special committee of the House of Commons to investigate and find out whether the Guardian had violated the law and whether it had damaged national security when it published the materials submitted to the editors of Snowden. The journalist writes:
Then the situation became much more strange, the author notes: Cameron stated that the editorial computer destroyed “proves” that the newspaper knew about the violation of the law by it.
Frankly absurd interpretation of what happened, says the journalist.
Cameron’s actions, the author believes, indicate that there can be no free press in Britain. In Britain, an American gloriously remarks, only stenographers can exist.

Golden sunset. On Wednesday night, the Greek parliament voted to adopt an amendment on the termination of state funding of parties in the event of the prosecution of its leaders for criminal offenses, the correspondent reports. RIA News" Gennady Melnik.
This decision concerns the Golden Dawn party. The prosecutor's office asks to recognize the entire party as a criminal organization.
It is noted that the vote of deputies was by name.
At the same time, the Communist Party of Greece abstained from voting, saying that it does not consider the neo-Nazi party to be innocent, but does not want to strengthen the position of the ruling coalition and give it weapons that can be used against the working class.
Interior Minister Giannis Mihelakis said: “The government cannot allow the state and taxpayers to use to finance criminal or terrorist organizations that are trying to operate under the cover of a political party.”
The speaker of the “Golden Dawn” Ilyas Kasidiaris also made a statement. He said that his party was being destroyed on the "command of the European Commission, Americans and American Jews."
Riga: five thousand signatures in defense of the Soviet monument. The activists collected over five thousand signatures against the demolition of the monument to Soviet soldiers-liberators of Riga, which is installed in the center of the Latvian capital. The corresponding petition is posted on the website peticijas.com, transmits "Lenta.ru".
The campaign was initiated by Alexander Prokopenko. He began collecting signatures in defense of the monument in the spring of 2012. Public interest in the initiative has grown against the backdrop of statements by Latvian activists and politicians that the monument should be demolished.
Justice Minister Janis Bordans of October 21 said that the monument to the "occupying power" is not a place next to the Latvian National Library, but in its place it is necessary to build a stadium.
For the demolition of the monument was signed by more than ten thousand visitors to the site of public initiatives «Mana Balss».
Mayor of Riga Neil Ushakov did not remain silent. He said that the initiators of the demolition of the monument are extremists.
In addition, the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic Karlis Eihenbaums said that the dismantling of the monument would be contrary to the Latvian-Russian agreement of the 1994 year. It obliged the republic to provide care, improvement and preservation of memorial structures and places of mass soldier graves.
The trouble with the Ukrainian secrets. Admiral Igor Kabanenko, First Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, was denied access to state secrets. The decision was taken by the Security Service of Ukraine, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to "The Mirror of the Week".
This decision was made in connection with the recent searches in the offices of the first persons of the General Staff, who conducted the SBU. During searches in the offices of high-ranking military officials copies of secret documents were found. The publication notes that there are grounds for the commencement of criminal proceedings.
As the military explained it themselves, it is not specified.
According to ZN, Lieutenant-General Yuri Dumansky, Deputy Chief of the General Staff, and Lieutenant-General Valery Askarov, Head of the Main Directorate of Defense and Mobilization Planning of the General Staff, will be deprived of access to state secrets.
Tymoshenko: difficult road to pardon. Yulia Tymoshenko supported one of the options for her release, which European politicians discussed with the Ukrainian leadership. It is about "partial pardon." About this, as transmits "Lenta.ru" referring to Interfax, said the head of the Batkivshchyna faction in the Verkhovna Rada Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
“Yes, Yulia Tymoshenko agrees to partial pardon. She clearly noted that she was making a serious step - she is ready to accept partial pardon for the fate of Ukraine, ”the politician said.
There is no official information about the terms of the plan. But the Polish MEP Marek Sivec recently wrote about him in his blog. The record was quoted by the Ukrainian media: “Partial pardon means reducing her (Timoshenko) imprisonment from seven years to half. Due to the fact that Mrs. Prime Minister has already spent more than half of the shortened term, there are grounds for her release on parole. ”
But Tymoshenko, according to the same MEP, will have to pay a fine: 200 million dollars.
It seems, let us add, the Ukrainian authorities have found a way not only to associate with the EU, but also to end the economic crisis.
An experienced commander will be useful to the Taliban. The head of the special forces unit in the Afghan province of Kunar joined the Hezb-i-Islami (Islamic Party of Afghanistan) armed group. Officer Monsif Khan hid on an armored car, prudently taking with him weapons, ammunition and equipment, writes "RT" with reference to ITAR-TASS. The prudence of the commander was also in the fact that he sent his subordinates in advance on short-term leave.
The head of Kunar province declared:
Heroic Scout The Afghan intelligence agency has convicted 65 of its officers in regular use of heroin. According to "Lenta.ru" with reference to Reuters, they are all fired.
Ramatullah Nabil, the head of this department, said that among the employees of the National Security Directorate of heroin addicts was found
Last week, recalls Lenta, the UN published a report according to which about 80% of all opium in the world is produced in Afghanistan. And over the past year, the poppy-covered area in the country has increased dramatically.
Exhibition in Busan. The international naval arms exhibition (October 22-25) is held in this South Korean port city. More than one and a half thousand companies from 55 countries of the world participate in it. This writes Oleg Kiryanov ("Russian newspaper").
A total of 2420 stands and displays have been reserved. The organizers note that South Korea is showing its long-range anti-submarine torpedoes, heavy torpedoes, automatic submersibles, robotsminesweepers.
In China, the air runs out. In the northeast of China, in several megacities, the concentration of harmful substances in the air exceeds the norm by tens or even hundreds of times. The situation is complicated by the beginning of the heating season: most of the electricity in China is produced by coal stations. This was told by Artyom Krasulin ("Vesti").
“It seems to me that I no longer know how to breathe,” says an elderly Chinese woman. The same can say each of 20 millions of Beijing residents.
In the megalopolis, notes the author of the report, - thick smog. People go out in headscarves and protective masks. Visibility on the road - almost zero.
Fang Li, a member of the Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau, says: “Private cars with license plates that end in even and odd numbers will only be able to enter Beijing one by one. We also intend to reduce access to Beijing for company cars by 30 percent. ”
It is also reported that the number of accidents has increased several times. On one of the main highways, ten trucks collided at once.
In 10 million Harbin declared a red (penultimate) level of danger. The international airport does not work here, kindergartens and schools are closed. Road signs are almost invisible ... Resident of Harbin Vladimir Kovalchuk says:
In the meantime, the journalist notes, caustic clouds from the Middle Kingdom reached Vladivostok. Smog is observed in the Khabarovsk Territory and in the Jewish Autonomous Region.
"I would like not to stop ..." Russian Prime Minister D. Medvedev, who is on a visit to the People's Republic of China, on October 22 held talks with Xi Jinping and then with Premier Li Keqiang. Reports about it "InoTV".
The two countries agreed to jointly develop oil and natural gas in Eastern Siberia and the Far East, and also agreed to increase oil supplies from Russia to China in the next 10 years by another 100 million tons.
At a meeting with journalists, Li Keqiang, raising the question of the intended goal of increasing the trade turnover of Russia and China by 2015 to 100 billion dollars, stressed that “I would like not to dwell on 100 billion dollars, and to increase to 200 billion dollars, and to 300 billion dollars. "
Two parties, reminds “InoTV”, signed about twenty documents on cooperation. To carry out the development of oil in Eastern Siberia, it was decided to establish a joint venture. Rosneft will have a 51% stake in it, and the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) will have 49%.
American stealth destroyer. As Alexander Gasyuk writes ("RG"), in the coming days, the first combat ship for the US Navy of the Zamvol class will be launched in America.
The destroyer got the nickname "Invisible" - for its futuristic forms. This vessel has a forward beveled stem, a hull made of composite materials and a minimum of superstructures.
The latest destroyer is fully computerized. His team will be only 158 people (about half the number of teams acting as part of the American fleet destroyers).
Zamvolt will receive guns that can fire 160 kilometers.
It is expected that ships of this type will become platforms for developing weapons operating on new physical principles. We are talking about electromagnetic guns.
The cost of the ship pledged in 2011 year has exceeded a billion dollars for 3,5, the correspondent notes. The plans of the US defense department involve the purchase of at least three new ships of the Zamvolt type. Initially, the US Navy hoped to build as many 32 destroyers as possible! But due to their high cost and reduced military spending, the amount was cut by an order of magnitude.
In the US, applied a new kind of censorship. In the United States, the scandal associated with the decision of the Los Angeles Times not to publish readers' letters, which prove that a person is not involved in global warming, is gaining momentum, writes Alexander Gasyuk ("RG").
American climatologists, skeptical about the hypothesis of climate change under the influence of man, said in response to the existence of a taboo in the media for their point of view.
The decision to censor the arguments of readers of the largest newspaper on the west coast of the United States explained by the fact that it is not going to publish "obviously wrong opinions." Responsible for publishing letters from readers, editor Paul Thornton wrote in a note:
“Statements about the absence of evidence that human activity influences climate change are not just opinions. These are actually incorrect statements. ” Thornton indicated that he was not going to put them in print.
The “free press” in the United States is trying to reduce the possibility of publishing evidence on this issue from very low to impossible, ”said Scott Armstrong, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
The head of the biochemical laboratory at Rockefeller University in New York, Jan Breslow, also confirmed the existence of an “embargo” on any alternative opinions regarding the causes of global warming.
US nuclear facilities: welcome, gentlemen terrorists! US military personnel carrying duty in underground bunkers, from where they control the intercontinental ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads, regularly make various mistakes and violations, reports "RT" with reference to the Associated Press.
What are these violations? Here are examples: officers often leave the concrete sash of bunkers open. This year there were twice cases when the guards fell asleep at the sites - also with the doors open.
“Come on in, who wants, take what he wants,” we add.
Bullet for math. In Brooklyn, an 13-year-old school student who came to class with a gun was arrested. This was reported by the TV channel "NBC", reports corr. ITAR-TASS Daniel Studnev.
“A child brought an unloaded pistol to school. He is taken into custody, specialists work with him, ”the police said.
As the correspondent reminds. ITAR-TASS, on the eve of a school in Sparks (Nevada), a mathematics teacher was killed by a student. Two schoolchildren were injured. The attacker committed suicide.
Russian discipline. Against the background of the “hunt for sniffing,” demonstrated by the FSB of the Russian Federation, its American colleagues from the NSA look like “poor relatives.” In such expressions the correspondent «Tagesspiegel» Christoph von Marshall commented on information about the new powers that the FSB is supposed to receive next year.
"In Russia, the government wants to naturally look over the shoulder of citizens when they are sitting in front of the computer", - quotes von Marshall "Inopressa". American intelligence officers at least experienced a "sense of shame" during surveillance, he believes. That is why they “obliged Internet services, from which they took data, to remain silent”. Another thing is Russia. Here, the secret services do not hide anything, because "citizens simply need to know that the state controls them - this has a disciplining effect on them."
The same theme develops Dietrich Alexander from «Die Welt» (source abbr. translation of the article - "Inopressa").
Sometimes the Russian state compensates for its lack of competence in some issues with excessive zeal, the author believes. Just such a case - in the field of Internet technology. According to the plan of a former KGB officer, Vladimir Putin, about which the correspondent reports, the country should "be fully viewed and controlled." Putin will help the FSB.
According to the newspaper Kommersant, from 1 July 2014, the powerful structure “will be able to view all Internet traffic of Russians, including information on telephone and IP numbers, email addresses and data from social networks and chat rooms”.
As the journalist notes, the draft of the corresponding draft law is under consideration in the State Duma, and “few people doubt that it will be approved by the DG”. It is also planned to increase wages to senior officers of the special services.
The cellular operator VimpelCom believes that future innovations "violate the constitutional rights of Russian citizens." The FSB cites the fact that when searching for extremist groups, the special services have to use data from social networks.
The author of the article is sure: after the “ratification of the new draft law, the FSB will receive full authority over the data, under which any opposition political activity will become impossible”.
Sitting on petrodollars. Andrei Soresku ("Le Huffington Post"; source abbr. translation - "Inopressa") published an article titled "The Brilliant Year of Vladimir Putin."
Year 2013 brought Russia success on the chessboard of international politics, says Romanian public figure Andrei Sorescu. Here is a list of successes: Syria, Iran, Armenia, G20 Summit, Snowden. Bottom line: today Russia is at the top of world diplomacy.
Success came after a gas attack in Syria. "When the United States, Britain and France were ready to go to war, Putin knocked the earth from under their feet, proposing to eliminate the Syrian chemical arsenal," the author reports. The ingenious and unexpected combination was played by the master’s hand, he writes further. Now the West will think ten times before challenging the master of the Kremlin.
Russia leads the world game around gas and oil. "Putin is sitting on petrodollars and may not be jealous of the monarchs of the Persian Gulf," the publication says. “Energy has become the main weapon, and Moscow knows how to use it especially cleverly.”
True, Soresku notes, it is only a barrel of oil to fall in price - and Moscow "will be knocked out of the saddle both inside the country and abroad."
"Caucasian black widows are back ..." The theme of the terrorist attack in Volgograd is devoted to a new review of Western newspapers from "Foreign Press".
The terrorist attack in Volgograd should be viewed as a threat to the Winter Olympics in Sochi, writes Julia Smirnova in Die Welt. After all, the leader of the North Caucasus militants, Doku Umarov, earlier called for disrupting the Olympics in Sochi and lifted the ban on terrorist acts in Russia.
An Islamic suicide bomber allegedly blew herself up in a crowded bus in Volgograd, reports The Wall Street Journal. The attack heightened fears about the safety of the upcoming Olympic Winter Games in Sochi.
Doku Umarov urged his followers to take "maximum effort" to thwart the Olympics in Sochi, which, he said, would take place on the "bones of many Muslims."
“In response to the Russian security services, pressure was increased demanding to“ tighten the screws ”on the eve of a world-class sporting event, an action about which opinion was divided: whether it would prevent terrorist attacks or even more irritate the radicals in the neighboring North Caucasus,” correspondents write.
"Caucasian black widows, suicide bombers, kamikaze women are returning," writes Fabrizio Dragosei in Corriere della Sera. - This does not bode well for the Olympics in Sochi, which the leader of the Chechen terrorists is eager to drench with blood. Naida Asiyalova was 30 for years, maybe she was mortally ill. Yesterday she got on a bus in Volgograd and blew herself up in a crowd of passengers, most of whom were students. ”
The state has found citizens in Russia. At a meeting of the Council on Interethnic Relations, Vladimir Putin suggested where to look for the origins of the Biryuli conflict and how to deal with illegal migrants, reports Interfax.
One-off measures to prevent ethnic conflicts are ineffective. We need modern system methods and approaches, which are reflected in the new “Strategy of the state national policy”.
Most conflicts, like the one that happened in Biryulyovo, could have been avoided if the local authorities had listened to the requests and opinions of the people and fairly and promptly solved their problems.
Why do you need power? Fair question, add on my own. It remains only to get an answer to it ... It only seems that the local authorities are fully aware of the situation - just the way it is. "Years" knows. And not only knows, but participates in its creation. The sad result: instead of doing something “before”, our government is engaged in talking “after”. Expressions about the “depressing” picture sound, and then everything returns to normal - to that very “concrete work”.
The first line of defense of Russia. The decision on the resignation of Gennady Onishchenko from the post of the head of Rospotrebnadzor was made. About this, transmits "Voice of Russia", Vedomosti reports, citing an unnamed federal official. The resignation will be granted after the return of Prime Minister Medvedev from China.
One of the reasons for the resignation was the problem of handling Onishchenko. A person close to the presidential administration, said the publication that Onishchenko - a long-standing conflict with Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets. And another source close to the Kremlin noted that Onishchenko has complicated relations with other members of the government, and with Medvedev too.
On Tuesday, the Voice of Russia recalls with reference to Interfax, Golodets reported that the chief sanitary doctor of the Russian Federation was leaving his post due to the expiration of his powers.
Gennady Onishchenko, in response, stated that the statement about his departure was made by “a strange character” who is not among the people making the decision. ”
A presidential spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said that Onishchenko’s work in the Kremlin was very much appreciated.
Comrade Onishchenko’s dismissal, we will add on our own, should definitely be attributed to the machinations of the liberals. The irony is irony, but the head doctor of Russia is the first line of defense of the motherland. When diplomacy is powerless, a terrible geopolitical weapon in a white coat extends to the front line ...
Sensitive loss for PAS. During the battle at Tafas 21 of October, one of the founders of the “Free Syrian Army” Yasser al-Aboud was killed, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to Reuters.

The United States is looking for countries that are ready to provide territory for the destruction of chemical weapons arsenals. Washington has already turned to a number of European countries - to Albania, Belgium, France, Norway.
Many countries, including Russia, are ready to provide technologies for this and provide financing.
Turkish problems. Refugees barracks from Syria are built along the line of the Turkish-Syrian border. How does the local population treat them, in an interview with Amur Hajiyev ("Voice of Russia") told the people of Turkey.
In Turkey, according to official figures, there are more than 600 thousands of refugees from Syria. 200 thousands live in camps, about 400 thousands live in cities.

Many Syrians were cruelly mistreated, beaten and even tortured by Turkish border guards while crossing the Syrian-Turkish border.
“The next serious problem faced today in Khatai, Urfa and throughout the entire border with Syria is related to Syrian widows. They allegedly remarry. However, in our opinion, those intermediaries with the help of which this happens are engaged in frank pimping. And there are tens of thousands of such cases. ”
In Khatai - a serious problem due to the growing number of jihadist groups. Until recently, the militants there walked with weapons in their hands. But the government took action on this issue, the expert said. Nevertheless, the militants continue to freely cross the border.
Another problem: Syrians are used in Turkey as cheap labor. They are willing to work even for a quarter of the minimum wage.

"Reuters" notes that, according to the Saudi authorities, the United States was unable to resolve the crisis in Syria. Washington is also guilty of rapprochement with Tehran.
“Experts note that the obvious discontent of the Saudis is caused not so much by the fact that Barack Obama’s rhetoric has softened Iran’s rhetoric, but rather the relatively successful negotiations in Geneva on the Iranian nuclear program last week. The prospect for the West to lift heavy economic sanctions on Tehran is clearly not part of the plans of the Sunni monarchy, which seeks to maximally weaken the position of the Islamic Republic in the region. ”
The article also notes that Saudi Arabia has frightened the world community more than once: if Iran gets nuclear weapons, Riad will also acquire them.
As the correspondent reports. ITAR-TASS Yulia Romanova, the statement of Prince Bandar bin Sultan will not change the "foundations of relations" between the kingdom and the United States.

UAV from the IRGC - a gift to the Russian people. Iran handed over to Russia a copy of the US drone "ScanEagle" as confirmation of mass production, writes Said Kamali Degan («The Guardian»; source abbr. translation - "Inopressa").
Iran handed over to Russia a copy of the American reconnaissance drone, thus proving that its aircraft, captured a year ago, was reproduced on a massive scale.
ScanEagle was provided to Russia on the sidelines of a meeting in Tehran between Farzad Esmaili (commander of the military base of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Hatam al-Anbiya) and Russian Air Force Commander Viktor Bondarev.
Said Kamali Degan writes:
“In December 2012, the Corps Commander said that ScanEagle was in the hands of his forces, and promised that Tehran would reproduce it on a massive scale. The US authorities at the time denied such statements, claiming that all their drones were in place. ”
As the Fars news agency reports, after meeting with Bondarev, comrade Esmaili said:
"The drone was created by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a symbol of the technical capabilities of Islamic Iran, and today we presented its current model as a gift to the Russian air force ... and the Russian people."
NATO will secure Libya. NATO has created a so-called “consulting group” to assist Libya in shaping its security system. This was stated by the Secretary General of the Alliance Anders Fogh Rasmussen, pass "Vesti".
According to Rasmussen, the “advisory group was established at the request of Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zeidan Mohammed”. The new division will work in coordination with other international organizations and will provide "consulting assistance in creating security systems in this country", that is, in Libya.
“The group will work on a permanent basis in Brussels. In Libya, no representation is planned. It will consist of a 8-10 man, ”ITAR-TASS reports, citing a source at NATO headquarters.
"Katyn case": no inhumanity. The Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights delivered a verdict on the suit of the relatives of the victims of the Katyn massacre against Russia "Vesti" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
In the appeal of the court it is said that in the actions of Russia there was no violation of the article prohibiting inhuman or degrading treatment. The ECHR Grand Chamber rejected the complaint of the relatives of the victims of the “Katyn massacre” about the ineffectiveness of the investigation: “By a majority of votes, the court ruled that he could not in this case consider the substance of the violation of the 2 article (right to life) of the European Convention on Human Rights,” underlines in the verdict.
However, violations from Russia were still. Our country has violated the obligations to cooperate with the Strasbourg court, without providing, at its request, a copy of the decision to dismiss the case.
Condemned for almost four thousand years in prison, she was released. ECHR released a terrorist convicted on 3828 years, writes MIGnews.com.
Under pressure from the European Court of Human Rights, a court in Spain ordered the release of a member of the radical Basque group ETA. Ines del Rio Prada was sentenced to 1987 years of imprisonment in 3838. She was blamed for terrorism and involvement in the killing of 23 people.
As noted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Spain, the release of a terrorist can create a precedent: 76 of other members of ETA convicted of terrorism can use it.
"The Guardian" under the hood. In the article “The British Premier demands an investigation into the Guardian in connection with the Snowden revelations” Mike Masnik ("Techdirt", USA; source of translation - "InoSMI") writes about the persecution of the Guardian newspaper in Britain. In his opinion, such "will mean the end of the free press."
The author calls the pursuit of The Guardian an absurd theater. The director seems to be David Cameron: he appealed to a special committee of the House of Commons to investigate and find out whether the Guardian had violated the law and whether it had damaged national security when it published the materials submitted to the editors of Snowden. The journalist writes:
“With this proposal, Cameron responded to a question from former Defense Secretary Liam Fox, saying that the Guardian was guilty of double standards, because its editorial staff had exposed the scandal of listening to the phones by newspapers and at the same time published secrets stolen from the NSA Snowden.
I re-read this statement several times, but did not understand where the double standards are. In both cases, the newspaper reported on things of interest to the public. And as far as I know, this is what the mass media exist for. ”
I re-read this statement several times, but did not understand where the double standards are. In both cases, the newspaper reported on things of interest to the public. And as far as I know, this is what the mass media exist for. ”
Then the situation became much more strange, the author notes: Cameron stated that the editorial computer destroyed “proves” that the newspaper knew about the violation of the law by it.
Frankly absurd interpretation of what happened, says the journalist.
Cameron’s actions, the author believes, indicate that there can be no free press in Britain. In Britain, an American gloriously remarks, only stenographers can exist.
“When the government threatens you with an investigation for reporting its atrocities, it produces a tremendous, terrifying effect, guaranteeing even greater abuse and disruption, because it destroys the most important deterrents. Cameron’s statements will have a negative impact on Britain and on her alleged belief in freedom of speech and press freedom. ”

Golden sunset. On Wednesday night, the Greek parliament voted to adopt an amendment on the termination of state funding of parties in the event of the prosecution of its leaders for criminal offenses, the correspondent reports. RIA News" Gennady Melnik.
This decision concerns the Golden Dawn party. The prosecutor's office asks to recognize the entire party as a criminal organization.
It is noted that the vote of deputies was by name.
At the same time, the Communist Party of Greece abstained from voting, saying that it does not consider the neo-Nazi party to be innocent, but does not want to strengthen the position of the ruling coalition and give it weapons that can be used against the working class.
Interior Minister Giannis Mihelakis said: “The government cannot allow the state and taxpayers to use to finance criminal or terrorist organizations that are trying to operate under the cover of a political party.”
The speaker of the “Golden Dawn” Ilyas Kasidiaris also made a statement. He said that his party was being destroyed on the "command of the European Commission, Americans and American Jews."
Riga: five thousand signatures in defense of the Soviet monument. The activists collected over five thousand signatures against the demolition of the monument to Soviet soldiers-liberators of Riga, which is installed in the center of the Latvian capital. The corresponding petition is posted on the website peticijas.com, transmits "Lenta.ru".
The campaign was initiated by Alexander Prokopenko. He began collecting signatures in defense of the monument in the spring of 2012. Public interest in the initiative has grown against the backdrop of statements by Latvian activists and politicians that the monument should be demolished.
Justice Minister Janis Bordans of October 21 said that the monument to the "occupying power" is not a place next to the Latvian National Library, but in its place it is necessary to build a stadium.
For the demolition of the monument was signed by more than ten thousand visitors to the site of public initiatives «Mana Balss».
Mayor of Riga Neil Ushakov did not remain silent. He said that the initiators of the demolition of the monument are extremists.
In addition, the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic Karlis Eihenbaums said that the dismantling of the monument would be contrary to the Latvian-Russian agreement of the 1994 year. It obliged the republic to provide care, improvement and preservation of memorial structures and places of mass soldier graves.
The trouble with the Ukrainian secrets. Admiral Igor Kabanenko, First Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, was denied access to state secrets. The decision was taken by the Security Service of Ukraine, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to "The Mirror of the Week".
This decision was made in connection with the recent searches in the offices of the first persons of the General Staff, who conducted the SBU. During searches in the offices of high-ranking military officials copies of secret documents were found. The publication notes that there are grounds for the commencement of criminal proceedings.
As the military explained it themselves, it is not specified.
According to ZN, Lieutenant-General Yuri Dumansky, Deputy Chief of the General Staff, and Lieutenant-General Valery Askarov, Head of the Main Directorate of Defense and Mobilization Planning of the General Staff, will be deprived of access to state secrets.
Tymoshenko: difficult road to pardon. Yulia Tymoshenko supported one of the options for her release, which European politicians discussed with the Ukrainian leadership. It is about "partial pardon." About this, as transmits "Lenta.ru" referring to Interfax, said the head of the Batkivshchyna faction in the Verkhovna Rada Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
“Yes, Yulia Tymoshenko agrees to partial pardon. She clearly noted that she was making a serious step - she is ready to accept partial pardon for the fate of Ukraine, ”the politician said.
There is no official information about the terms of the plan. But the Polish MEP Marek Sivec recently wrote about him in his blog. The record was quoted by the Ukrainian media: “Partial pardon means reducing her (Timoshenko) imprisonment from seven years to half. Due to the fact that Mrs. Prime Minister has already spent more than half of the shortened term, there are grounds for her release on parole. ”
But Tymoshenko, according to the same MEP, will have to pay a fine: 200 million dollars.
It seems, let us add, the Ukrainian authorities have found a way not only to associate with the EU, but also to end the economic crisis.
An experienced commander will be useful to the Taliban. The head of the special forces unit in the Afghan province of Kunar joined the Hezb-i-Islami (Islamic Party of Afghanistan) armed group. Officer Monsif Khan hid on an armored car, prudently taking with him weapons, ammunition and equipment, writes "RT" with reference to ITAR-TASS. The prudence of the commander was also in the fact that he sent his subordinates in advance on short-term leave.
The head of Kunar province declared:
“He even paid some of the subordinates from the special forces to go to see the sights of the province. And later he disappeared with 30 weapons, night vision devices and binoculars on the Humvee armored car.
Heroic Scout The Afghan intelligence agency has convicted 65 of its officers in regular use of heroin. According to "Lenta.ru" with reference to Reuters, they are all fired.
Ramatullah Nabil, the head of this department, said that among the employees of the National Security Directorate of heroin addicts was found

Exhibition in Busan. The international naval arms exhibition (October 22-25) is held in this South Korean port city. More than one and a half thousand companies from 55 countries of the world participate in it. This writes Oleg Kiryanov ("Russian newspaper").
A total of 2420 stands and displays have been reserved. The organizers note that South Korea is showing its long-range anti-submarine torpedoes, heavy torpedoes, automatic submersibles, robotsminesweepers.
In China, the air runs out. In the northeast of China, in several megacities, the concentration of harmful substances in the air exceeds the norm by tens or even hundreds of times. The situation is complicated by the beginning of the heating season: most of the electricity in China is produced by coal stations. This was told by Artyom Krasulin ("Vesti").
“It seems to me that I no longer know how to breathe,” says an elderly Chinese woman. The same can say each of 20 millions of Beijing residents.
In the megalopolis, notes the author of the report, - thick smog. People go out in headscarves and protective masks. Visibility on the road - almost zero.
Fang Li, a member of the Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau, says: “Private cars with license plates that end in even and odd numbers will only be able to enter Beijing one by one. We also intend to reduce access to Beijing for company cars by 30 percent. ”
It is also reported that the number of accidents has increased several times. On one of the main highways, ten trucks collided at once.
In 10 million Harbin declared a red (penultimate) level of danger. The international airport does not work here, kindergartens and schools are closed. Road signs are almost invisible ... Resident of Harbin Vladimir Kovalchuk says:
“Visually, it looks like fog, but if you open a window or go out, you immediately realize that it is smoke. In the mouth remains the taste of burnt rubber and scorched foliage, as in the fall during the mass work days in Russia. Difficult to breathe, cough appears. Such as this year in Harbin has never been before. For the first time, I see a car parked across the road from where I can see it. ”
In the meantime, the journalist notes, caustic clouds from the Middle Kingdom reached Vladivostok. Smog is observed in the Khabarovsk Territory and in the Jewish Autonomous Region.
"I would like not to stop ..." Russian Prime Minister D. Medvedev, who is on a visit to the People's Republic of China, on October 22 held talks with Xi Jinping and then with Premier Li Keqiang. Reports about it "InoTV".
The two countries agreed to jointly develop oil and natural gas in Eastern Siberia and the Far East, and also agreed to increase oil supplies from Russia to China in the next 10 years by another 100 million tons.
At a meeting with journalists, Li Keqiang, raising the question of the intended goal of increasing the trade turnover of Russia and China by 2015 to 100 billion dollars, stressed that “I would like not to dwell on 100 billion dollars, and to increase to 200 billion dollars, and to 300 billion dollars. "
Two parties, reminds “InoTV”, signed about twenty documents on cooperation. To carry out the development of oil in Eastern Siberia, it was decided to establish a joint venture. Rosneft will have a 51% stake in it, and the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) will have 49%.
American stealth destroyer. As Alexander Gasyuk writes ("RG"), in the coming days, the first combat ship for the US Navy of the Zamvol class will be launched in America.
The destroyer got the nickname "Invisible" - for its futuristic forms. This vessel has a forward beveled stem, a hull made of composite materials and a minimum of superstructures.
The latest destroyer is fully computerized. His team will be only 158 people (about half the number of teams acting as part of the American fleet destroyers).
Zamvolt will receive guns that can fire 160 kilometers.
It is expected that ships of this type will become platforms for developing weapons operating on new physical principles. We are talking about electromagnetic guns.
The cost of the ship pledged in 2011 year has exceeded a billion dollars for 3,5, the correspondent notes. The plans of the US defense department involve the purchase of at least three new ships of the Zamvolt type. Initially, the US Navy hoped to build as many 32 destroyers as possible! But due to their high cost and reduced military spending, the amount was cut by an order of magnitude.
In the US, applied a new kind of censorship. In the United States, the scandal associated with the decision of the Los Angeles Times not to publish readers' letters, which prove that a person is not involved in global warming, is gaining momentum, writes Alexander Gasyuk ("RG").
American climatologists, skeptical about the hypothesis of climate change under the influence of man, said in response to the existence of a taboo in the media for their point of view.
The decision to censor the arguments of readers of the largest newspaper on the west coast of the United States explained by the fact that it is not going to publish "obviously wrong opinions." Responsible for publishing letters from readers, editor Paul Thornton wrote in a note:
“Statements about the absence of evidence that human activity influences climate change are not just opinions. These are actually incorrect statements. ” Thornton indicated that he was not going to put them in print.
The “free press” in the United States is trying to reduce the possibility of publishing evidence on this issue from very low to impossible, ”said Scott Armstrong, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
The head of the biochemical laboratory at Rockefeller University in New York, Jan Breslow, also confirmed the existence of an “embargo” on any alternative opinions regarding the causes of global warming.
US nuclear facilities: welcome, gentlemen terrorists! US military personnel carrying duty in underground bunkers, from where they control the intercontinental ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads, regularly make various mistakes and violations, reports "RT" with reference to the Associated Press.
What are these violations? Here are examples: officers often leave the concrete sash of bunkers open. This year there were twice cases when the guards fell asleep at the sites - also with the doors open.
“Come on in, who wants, take what he wants,” we add.
Bullet for math. In Brooklyn, an 13-year-old school student who came to class with a gun was arrested. This was reported by the TV channel "NBC", reports corr. ITAR-TASS Daniel Studnev.
“A child brought an unloaded pistol to school. He is taken into custody, specialists work with him, ”the police said.
As the correspondent reminds. ITAR-TASS, on the eve of a school in Sparks (Nevada), a mathematics teacher was killed by a student. Two schoolchildren were injured. The attacker committed suicide.
Russian discipline. Against the background of the “hunt for sniffing,” demonstrated by the FSB of the Russian Federation, its American colleagues from the NSA look like “poor relatives.” In such expressions the correspondent «Tagesspiegel» Christoph von Marshall commented on information about the new powers that the FSB is supposed to receive next year.
"In Russia, the government wants to naturally look over the shoulder of citizens when they are sitting in front of the computer", - quotes von Marshall "Inopressa". American intelligence officers at least experienced a "sense of shame" during surveillance, he believes. That is why they “obliged Internet services, from which they took data, to remain silent”. Another thing is Russia. Here, the secret services do not hide anything, because "citizens simply need to know that the state controls them - this has a disciplining effect on them."
The same theme develops Dietrich Alexander from «Die Welt» (source abbr. translation of the article - "Inopressa").
Sometimes the Russian state compensates for its lack of competence in some issues with excessive zeal, the author believes. Just such a case - in the field of Internet technology. According to the plan of a former KGB officer, Vladimir Putin, about which the correspondent reports, the country should "be fully viewed and controlled." Putin will help the FSB.
According to the newspaper Kommersant, from 1 July 2014, the powerful structure “will be able to view all Internet traffic of Russians, including information on telephone and IP numbers, email addresses and data from social networks and chat rooms”.
As the journalist notes, the draft of the corresponding draft law is under consideration in the State Duma, and “few people doubt that it will be approved by the DG”. It is also planned to increase wages to senior officers of the special services.
The cellular operator VimpelCom believes that future innovations "violate the constitutional rights of Russian citizens." The FSB cites the fact that when searching for extremist groups, the special services have to use data from social networks.
The author of the article is sure: after the “ratification of the new draft law, the FSB will receive full authority over the data, under which any opposition political activity will become impossible”.
Sitting on petrodollars. Andrei Soresku ("Le Huffington Post"; source abbr. translation - "Inopressa") published an article titled "The Brilliant Year of Vladimir Putin."
Year 2013 brought Russia success on the chessboard of international politics, says Romanian public figure Andrei Sorescu. Here is a list of successes: Syria, Iran, Armenia, G20 Summit, Snowden. Bottom line: today Russia is at the top of world diplomacy.
Success came after a gas attack in Syria. "When the United States, Britain and France were ready to go to war, Putin knocked the earth from under their feet, proposing to eliminate the Syrian chemical arsenal," the author reports. The ingenious and unexpected combination was played by the master’s hand, he writes further. Now the West will think ten times before challenging the master of the Kremlin.
Russia leads the world game around gas and oil. "Putin is sitting on petrodollars and may not be jealous of the monarchs of the Persian Gulf," the publication says. “Energy has become the main weapon, and Moscow knows how to use it especially cleverly.”
True, Soresku notes, it is only a barrel of oil to fall in price - and Moscow "will be knocked out of the saddle both inside the country and abroad."
"Caucasian black widows are back ..." The theme of the terrorist attack in Volgograd is devoted to a new review of Western newspapers from "Foreign Press".
The terrorist attack in Volgograd should be viewed as a threat to the Winter Olympics in Sochi, writes Julia Smirnova in Die Welt. After all, the leader of the North Caucasus militants, Doku Umarov, earlier called for disrupting the Olympics in Sochi and lifted the ban on terrorist acts in Russia.
An Islamic suicide bomber allegedly blew herself up in a crowded bus in Volgograd, reports The Wall Street Journal. The attack heightened fears about the safety of the upcoming Olympic Winter Games in Sochi.
Doku Umarov urged his followers to take "maximum effort" to thwart the Olympics in Sochi, which, he said, would take place on the "bones of many Muslims."
“In response to the Russian security services, pressure was increased demanding to“ tighten the screws ”on the eve of a world-class sporting event, an action about which opinion was divided: whether it would prevent terrorist attacks or even more irritate the radicals in the neighboring North Caucasus,” correspondents write.
"Caucasian black widows, suicide bombers, kamikaze women are returning," writes Fabrizio Dragosei in Corriere della Sera. - This does not bode well for the Olympics in Sochi, which the leader of the Chechen terrorists is eager to drench with blood. Naida Asiyalova was 30 for years, maybe she was mortally ill. Yesterday she got on a bus in Volgograd and blew herself up in a crowd of passengers, most of whom were students. ”
The state has found citizens in Russia. At a meeting of the Council on Interethnic Relations, Vladimir Putin suggested where to look for the origins of the Biryuli conflict and how to deal with illegal migrants, reports Interfax.
One-off measures to prevent ethnic conflicts are ineffective. We need modern system methods and approaches, which are reflected in the new “Strategy of the state national policy”.
“As far as I know, the work so far unfolds extremely slowly. Plans to implement the federal strategy were only nine regions. I repeat, we are talking only about plans, about the first necessary measures, and if we analyze a specific work, the picture will probably be even more depressing. ”
Most conflicts, like the one that happened in Biryulyovo, could have been avoided if the local authorities had listened to the requests and opinions of the people and fairly and promptly solved their problems.
“In Biryulyovo, for example, residents' dissatisfaction accumulated over the years, there were appeals to the police, to the local government, and to the leadership of the district. Why do we need power if it does not want to know the situation as it is in the field, does not take any measures and does not hear people? ”
Why do you need power? Fair question, add on my own. It remains only to get an answer to it ... It only seems that the local authorities are fully aware of the situation - just the way it is. "Years" knows. And not only knows, but participates in its creation. The sad result: instead of doing something “before”, our government is engaged in talking “after”. Expressions about the “depressing” picture sound, and then everything returns to normal - to that very “concrete work”.
The first line of defense of Russia. The decision on the resignation of Gennady Onishchenko from the post of the head of Rospotrebnadzor was made. About this, transmits "Voice of Russia", Vedomosti reports, citing an unnamed federal official. The resignation will be granted after the return of Prime Minister Medvedev from China.
One of the reasons for the resignation was the problem of handling Onishchenko. A person close to the presidential administration, said the publication that Onishchenko - a long-standing conflict with Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets. And another source close to the Kremlin noted that Onishchenko has complicated relations with other members of the government, and with Medvedev too.
On Tuesday, the Voice of Russia recalls with reference to Interfax, Golodets reported that the chief sanitary doctor of the Russian Federation was leaving his post due to the expiration of his powers.
Gennady Onishchenko, in response, stated that the statement about his departure was made by “a strange character” who is not among the people making the decision. ”
A presidential spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said that Onishchenko’s work in the Kremlin was very much appreciated.
Comrade Onishchenko’s dismissal, we will add on our own, should definitely be attributed to the machinations of the liberals. The irony is irony, but the head doctor of Russia is the first line of defense of the motherland. When diplomacy is powerless, a terrible geopolitical weapon in a white coat extends to the front line ...
