Results of the week. "This is" WFW "- not without reason!"
Odessans decided to make a gift to the head of the Odessa Regional State Administration Mikhail Saakashvili. The present was a monument, which was installed at the Vorontsovskoy colonnade by activists of the public organization “Odessa - for the Free Port”. On a small pedestal, on which the inscription “Sabakashvili” flaunts, there are figures of the current head of the Odessa region and President Obama holding him on a short leash.
During the week, Saakashvili generally claimed the title of Hero of Ukraine. Firstly, he appeared in public in the form of a patrol policeman and, practically to the applause of those gathered, he dragged off, as part of the exercises, of course, a conditional injured person in the trunk of a police car, where he retired with a young man. It turned out that in this way Saakashvili complied with the standard for rescuing colleagues in emergency situations. On this occasion, fotozhaby with images of Saakashvili, who are dragging into the trunk of the leader of the radical party Mr. Lyashko, have already appeared on the Web ...
Secondly, Saakashvili "passed the standard" on the knowledge of the Ukrainian language in an interview with correspondents of Ukrainian TV channels. Mova poured, albeit with a Georgian accent, on the leveling of which Mikhail Nikolozovich works, squeezing the Georgian out of himself drop by drop.
In general, the monument, which erected "grateful" Odessa citizens, is worthy! That's just much more worthy of the dock in the tribunal for the acts of August 2008.

Autumn smells discount
The closer the winter, the more active in the speeches of Ukrainian politicians slip the terms: "gas", "coal", "TPP", "discount", "new credit". Yatsenyuk added to this that for greater energy efficiency, citizens of the country should warm their houses, buy new boilers, and in general, use as little energy as possible.
And in fact, one must assume that there will be new discounts, new deliveries, benefits and everything else - as it was already a thousand times. There will be new negotiations (in Vienna, Geneva, then - everywhere), which again will be crowned with "success", and the Ukrainian authorities will get what they are demanding from Russia, and will again remain in their seats. Ratings are falling, the economy is falling, and they are still sitting. Here is the victory of democracy!
At the same time, in our country, hundreds of localities are still not gasified, and on their behalf no delegation has the right in Vienna and Geneva to demand a price reduction from Gazprom. Well, everything is correct - well, brotherly people, and this is so ... - your own ... And from your own and another demand - you will not play for Gazprom with an overdue payment - you will be cut off at once ... from the pipe ...

Africa is coming
If only recently, the so-called “Juncker quotas” (quotas for resettlement of Asian and African refugees) were discussed in relation to the countries of the European Union, which expressed obvious dissatisfaction with the voluntary-compulsory measures of Brussels, now the range of objects for discussion is clearly expanding. Literally the other day, materials appeared in the Ukrainian press stating that the EU leadership is ready to extend “migration quotas” to those countries that wish to become members of the European Union. - As if in order for rushing EU members to underline their commitment to the “European ideals” and prove that their policy towards European integration has not changed.
And if Ukraine can do a preliminary calculation of how many Afro-Ukrainians it can settle on its territory, then, for example, Macedonia (it’s also torn in the EU, though not so active as to kill its population for the sake of it ...) already requests Brussels from Brussels sending refugees to hell. Refugees themselves in the Macedonian case understand the term “far away” from Serbia, from which, in their opinion, a direct road “to visit” Angela Merkel - to Germany opens. To Ukraine, for obvious reasons, Syrians, Libyans and Yemenis who fled from the war do not want to ... But on the other hand, a certain number of them are the same EU with a hanging stick with nails from American "partners" may well make an offer that they cannot refuse . But "friends" can also "non-lethal" weapon in the vicinity of the refugee camp, “inadvertently” to drop, so that democracy in a single territory is built even more actively ...

Mariupol. Black cat in the black room
Mariupol website: “The Mariupol village of Sartan was fired by 122-mm howitzers belonging to the first motorized rifle division of the Russian Federation. This was announced at the Mariupol Defense Headquarters by the deputy mayor of Mariupol, Vladimir Klimenko.
Vladimir Klimenko reported that 54 houses were damaged during the shelling, 5 direct hits and 5 houses are not recoverable. It was also said that there are five working groups, including the group on capital construction and the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
Tellingly, the evidence of the shelling of the village near Mariupol with howitzers of the 1 th motorized rifle division of the Russian Federation is as clear as day. Won-out, in the lower left corner of the video, you can clearly see the “black-black gun”, which “in a black-black city on a black-black street” is rolled over by a group of people in black jackets with black inscriptions that uniquely prove their belonging to the first, namely the motorized rifle division and, of course, the Russian Federation. - Well, the very same division, which in 2002 was no longer a division, but became a brigade, and the seventh, was completely reformatted in 2010 already in the 7 th guards separate motorized rifle regiment ... Such evidence will undoubtedly become the basis of another replacement of Jan Psaki changer in the US State Department.

Another thing, why so much attention to this fact is paid in ukroSMI. Yes, and stuffing Roman was not just made. Calculation of credibility for the site regulars. He will lay out, and there already the doubt will creep in some heads. The fact is that the Mariupol direction is one of the three where the forces of dill are concentrated. And this is a promising direction. From here - you need to create the visibility of security from the enemy There will be no offensive here. We are only defending. Throw disinformation through the media.

Apparently for a long time there was nothing to say to the State Department about the "Russian aggression", so Kiev was asked to organize another provocation from Washington. The fake explanation of what happened was "clumsy", sewn with white thread, but the West is satisfied with this: they raised a howlful utter howl.
And this is all against the background of DAILY shelling from the Armed Forces of Ukraine civilian objects in the territory of Donbass, which the West does not notice and does not react at all. The State Department called it the necessary "self-defense" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Putin in Crimea
Russian President Vladimir Putin made a working visit to the Crimean Federal District. In Yalta, the head of state held a meeting of the State Council Presidium dedicated to the development of tourism in the Russian Federation, proposing to simplify the visa issuance system for foreign tourists who are about to visit Russia. In Sevastopol, he descended in a special apparatus to the bottom of the bay, where the ship sunk several centuries ago.
As soon as the Russian president with an impressive delegation of federal officials was in the Crimea, a howl in Kiev immediately rose. Mr. Poroshenko howled, declaring that Putin, it turns out, had to ask his personal permission to visit the peninsula, and without his Poroshenkovsky permission, this visit is arbitrariness and, you know, an act of aggression. After that, a note came to the Foreign Ministry with a protest on the same occasion. They say they did not inform, they say, they are occupying, etc. The Foreign Ministry of Russia did not become silent and sent, no, not the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, the response note. Like, what does the Ukrainian department have to do with the Russian peninsula? .. And, they say, the president of Russia is the president of Russia, which has the right and opportunity to visit any Russian region.
By the way, during his visit to Sevastopol, Vladimir Putin reminded Ukraine that at the moment it is under external control, and that for such a large state it is just a shame. Putin added that the time will come, and Ukraine will move to development together with Russia, since in our countries virtually one people lives. These words of Putin again forced the leaders to speak out in Kiev, where the same Poroshenko, taking the top notes, said that the Russian and Ukrainian peoples are not at all fraternal ... Well, he, of course, has better know his roots ...

Why did the Syrian government army suddenly needed to fire at Israel?
The Reuters news agency, citing Syrian state television, reports that the Israeli Air Force, according to official statements, has not struck Syrian territory in the Golan Heights area without entering Syrian airspace. In addition, Israeli artillery bombarded the position of the Syrian army. All these actions, according to representatives of the Israeli army, were taken in connection with rocket attacks on Israeli territory, produced from Syria.
The Israeli authorities at the same time reported that the attacks were a response to the shelling of Israeli territory from Syria, and from the territory that was allegedly controlled by government forces. It would seem, and here the Syrian government troops, whose problems without Israel are clearly above the roof? .. But in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem they said that "Assad and his army are responsible for everything that happens in Syria." They say, therefore, we will peel at the Syrian government units, carefully avoiding mass accumulations of ghouls from ISIS. Asad, you see, illegitimate, and a pack of bearded men with grenade launchers on their shoulders is a “moderate Syrian opposition,” a synonym for democracy and freedom, has a carriage and a small cart of legitimacy ... Apparently, the possibility of getting “free and democratised” Libya, where instead of authorities hundreds are tearing each other a friend on the part of the groups dividing the territory, (only now at his side) inspires Israel ... Or Israel is absolutely sure that ISIS does not threaten it. If so, it would be interesting to know where Israel got such confidence from?

"Expert" view of the Russian army
News Israeli portal mako.co.il writes that the West is in vain afraid of the Russian army. According to the author of the material, the Russian army is a “horror story”, but nothing more. It turns out that Vladimir Putin "is trying to intimidate the world with a rusting army," - this is how the Israeli "analyst" writes in his material.
If we collect such opinions of all such “experts” (including, of course, the opinion, “experts” mako.co.il), then the conclusions will be approximately as follows:
The Russian army is worthless, since it kills itself with hazing, corruption and, of course, aggression in Ukraine. Russia's defense potential is either at zero, or has already hit the bottom and gone to cruel minuses ... There is nothing to deliver nuclear warheads, and they are being rolled from place to place by coughing conscript soldiers with twitching muscles on their face, knocked out by "grandfathers" front teeth and broken kidneys. The submarines are all rusty and damaged, the navigation aids are completely absent, and therefore they sail up off the coast of Stockholm (“spotted” by local vacationers and searched for weeks by the army and fleet Sweden), then in the Kakhovka reservoir ... Tanks Russia has wooden ones, the S-400 Triumph complexes are from papier-mâché ... In general, the “experts” are really perplexed, this is why the American light soldiers in white tailcoats and top hats have not yet carried out the democratic capture of Russia, which is already cracking seams and falls to the feet of Western democracy from hunger ...

No matter how choked
There has been too much oil in the world. And soon it will be even more. The report of the International Energy Agency states that the excess oil on the market in Q2 2015 reached 3 million barrels per day. This is the maximum value for the last seventeen years. However, the growth in oil production will not stop there. IEA experts admit that the excess supply will be characteristic of the 2016 year.
Recall the price of Brent crude on the market hovers around 46 dollars per barrel. Such a low price contributes to the depreciation of the ruble against hard currencies: the dollar and the euro.
However, experts do not advise panic. Igor Nikolaev, director of the FBK strategic analysis department, told Rossiyskaya Gazeta that the ruble is unlikely to collapse. The fall of December level 2014, "we definitely will not see," said the expert. According to him, there are many reasons for the fluctuations in the course: oil, Greece, China are not the best macroeconomic indicators of Russia. Plays a role and the upcoming increase in the US Federal Reserve rates.
However, whatever the forecasts, the very picture of Russia's strong dependence on world energy prices remains sad. Price down - budget hole, the ruble falls; the price is up - a sudden surplus, the government has no idea where to put the money and shove it over the funds. Approximately this strategy is followed by the kings in the monarchies of the Persian Gulf. Apparently, there is in that great wisdom ...

If oil becomes cheaper, then gasoline rises in price because oil-producing and oil refining companies need to compensate their losses.
If oil does not rise in price and does not become cheaper, then gasoline rises in price because of inflation.
In short, it is always expensive.

Yes, you say? You opened the constitution long ago, no?
We read: "The President determines the main directions of domestic (including economic) and foreign policy."
With a tricky plan, it is time to tie it up.
John Law nervously smokes to the side
Bank of America has compiled a list of countries whose economies are supposedly close to a “default”, as well as another list that includes “sustainable” economies. The latter included the economies of the United States and Japan (although their total national debt exceeded 27 trillions of dollars). The list of the “most stable” also includes France (more than 2,1 trillions of government debt dollars), Great Britain (national debt - 1,1 trillion dollars), Germany (2,6 trillion), Australia and New Zealand.
And here is the risky economy. The first three: Venezuela, Greece, Ukraine. And who's next? On the 7-th place in the list of Bank of America in terms of proximity to the "default" indicates the economy of Russia. Following Cyprus (the level of public debt is 17% of GDP, and there is still a reserve fund comparable to half of the Ukrainian economy).
Curious rating! Apparently, the more you make all sorts of debts, and you also print money and their surrogates, the more chances you have to head some financial list. With such an approach, the Scotsman John Law, who at one time tried to enrich not only the Scots, but also the Italians, the Germans and the French, might have come to the first place now. "Financier" became famous not only for the desire to fill the treasury by printing money and replicating the shares of his "company", but also by the skillful game of card games. He also loved to squander fortunes, make big debts and kill in duels. It seems that American bankers and rulers have learned something from this crook.

Epistolary novel
The American press got an “encoded” letter from one official to another. A certain civil servant, a worker in the Interdepartmental Working Group, shares with another bureaucrat successes in the destruction of Russia. The second is also destroying Russia without ceasing.
Someone Screwtape ("Balamut") wrote an email to his friend (nickname Wormwood). The authenticity of the document is, of course, questionable. Nevertheless, it was not the yellow press that told about this “secret plan” for the destruction of Russia, but a former American diplomat Kirk Bennett told in the subscription edition of The American Interest.
In the letter, Mr. Balamut lists the achievements of the American "agents of influence" and "guys": in Russia everything rushed "to complete collapse"; corruption continues unabated; goodwill is "disgusting"; capital flees abroad; the Ukrainian nation is alienated from the Russian people; Russia got involved in militarization; Europe turned away from Moscow; most of the countries of the former Soviet Union, too, turned away from it. Screwtape brags about how Americans calmly appropriate the true Russian treasure - human capital: after all, "the most talented Russians are increasingly forced to seek happiness in the West." In short, Balamut writes, “our people in Russia have contrived and put the country in a hopeless situation.” Well, and the bureaucrat calls the finale of a daring plan a future accession of Belarus to NATO.
The “agents of influence” and “our boys” are already pouring champagne into glasses and celebrating the victory: while the Russians consider oil to be the value, the real value (brains) leaves the country, seeking reliable shelter abroad. Oil capital for the most part, too, float abroad. Nothing remains in Russia: no brains, no oil with gas, no money.
Well, brothers, will we survive to the adversaries in spite?

"The triangle will be drunk!"
Director of the Center for Strategic Forecasting at the Atlantic Council, writer Matthew J. Burrows and senior research fellow at the Atlantic Council Robert A. Manning believe that the triangle, consisting of the United States, China and Russia, can turn over and thus change existing world order. The co-authors article appeared in the Nikkei Asian Review.
In 1971, publicists recall, President Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger made a “brilliant move”: they took advantage of China’s desire to find support against the USSR. From that moment it beganhistorical discovery ”of China USA. This chess move spawned a strategic triangle with the United States at the top and two unhappy communist regimes at the bottom.
But now everything has changed: tensions have arisen between the United States and the Russian Federation, and Chinese-Russian relations have become closer than they were at any time in the past half century, which gave the Chinese and Russians a chance to "restructure the world order to their liking."
Matthew Burrows and Robert Manning believe that the global political vector depends on the global role of the United States. In their opinion, the turn of the world, either to a new bipolarity, or to a further movement towards a more open international order, where there is no such state that could single-handedly direct international relations, will depend on the role that Washington will assume.
But is Washington able to face the truth and abandon the role of hegemon and gendarme and allow a truly open world to form on the planet? We think not. The White House, unable to change thinking, will continue to adhere to the strategy of the Cold War and use methods of bleeding geopolitical competitors (in this case, Russia and China) between themselves.

The Russian Federation at the moment is actually “lining up” under China, trying to bargain for itself special preferences due to its economic and political weakness. Our only hope and protection is our nuclear shield and sword, we will lose it, and to us Khan. Then we will not be devoured by the United States, so China.

Germans against world war
The German civil rights movement "Solidarity" announced the collection of signatures on a petition against the Third World War, which could flare up because of the confrontation between the West and the Russian Federation and China. “On the 70 anniversary of the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the world was closer to the threshold of a nuclear war than during the Cuban crisis in 1962. The reason for this is a number of senseless provocations against Russia, as well as China. As a result, the Obama administration and NATO are putting humanity at risk of annihilation, ”the document says.
Of course, this initiative of the policy of Berlin will not change. And yet the water wears away the stone. The more such initiatives, the less trust Angela Merkel, who dances to the American tune. Puppets from the American military-industrial complex, the White House and NATO are really doing everything to ruin the planet. Wanting to preserve world power, including over Europe, and at the same time to please their own greedy military capitalists, the "hegemon" cuts the branch on which it sits.

Exchange? Cheating!
Much noise has recently been made by an article in Sankei Shimbun by Japanese politician Muneo Suzuki. He hinted that in exchange for the Kuril Islands, the Land of the Rising Sun could stop supporting the West regarding the Crimean issue. Simply put, Muneo Suzuki spoke in favor of an exchange: Russia "returns" the Kuril Islands, and Japan "will not strengthen anti-Russian sanctions." As you can see, the “exchange” looks like a pure sell-off: it is proposed to give the islands for “non-strengthening of sanctions”
Later, on August 16, in Komsomolskaya Pravda, an interview was taken from Professor MGIMO, former Russian Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Japan Alexander Panov. When asked about the possibility of resolving a territorial dispute between Russia and Japan, the expert said that “there are no prospects” here. To solve, there must be a different atmosphere of bilateral relations.
There is really no perspective. It is ridiculous to think that the Kremlin, relying on certain sanctions from Tokyo, will suddenly “return” the islands to the Japanese. In this scenario, many other states will instantly express their own territorial "claims" to Russia. For example, the idea of sanctions relief for Russia in exchange for the “return” of Germany to Immanuel Kant’s hometown will come to the Germans in bright minds. Together with the area.
The idea of "returning" the islands belonging to the former Japanese deputy will not pass in Tokyo. In the sanctions conditions, the Americans are putting pressure on Russia just so that it “returns” to Ukraine the “annexed” Crimea. The pressure on the Russian Japanese, who want to get the islands “in exchange for the Crimea,” is completely contrary to American foreign policy. And who is “more important” in politics, Americans or Japanese, even children know.
In this situation, everything is simple and clear only for Russia: both its islands and the Crimea are also itss.
