FSB Director Alexander Bortnikov:
And yet the attack. Firstly, the “Military Review” team expresses sincere condolences to the families and friends of the passengers and crew members of the airliner who died in Sinai, and secondly, it very much hopes that the organizers and perpetrators of this monstrous crime will be found and punished so that wishing to do something similar, it became a lesson to remember before the end of their days.
In the department of public relations, the FSB announced a record reward for information about persons involved in the commission of a terrorist act. The amount of 50 million. And the amount is hardly taken from the ceiling. After all, these are colossal funds, on which the militants who are obsessed with money may well bite, in order to surrender their own patrons, who finance them obviously more modest. And in the light of the figure of this impressive sum, the patrons are clearly adding a headache - after all, they can be merged with the entrails of their own feeding. It turns out that the “spiritual-financial fathers” themselves who are fed up with the expense can start up themselves? .. As a result, a move with a reward can become more than effective for achieving the goals set.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu reported to the Supreme Commander that the strategic bombers of the Russian Federation Fighter Troops were involved in the counter-terrorist operation in Syria. These are the Tu-22, Tu-95MS and Tu-160 aircraft. According to the head of the military department of the Russian Federation, the attraction of an additional number of aircraft made it possible to increase the intensity of strikes against positions and targets of militants approximately twice.
Rumor has it that as soon as strategic aircraft aviation began to fly up from the bases in Engels and Mozdok, many “very moderated” Igilovites decided to take tonsure ... But somewhere in Ukraine there was one defender of freedom and security in Europe, holding back up to 2 million marshals of the GRU General Staff of the RF Armed Forces, with a wooden ruler and exit rushed to Wikipedia to his "European shaft" in order to compare its height with the ceiling of Russian strategists. As a result, a “certain” inconsistency of heights had to be connected with the measurement error ...

The Western media did not report the battles and the de-blockade of the Kuwaireis airbase mainly because it was a turning point in the conflict in Syria. Kuveiris is Syrian Stalingrad. Although Kuweiris is much smaller in size, its importance cannot be overestimated.
The release of the Kuwaitis air base with the contingent of Syrian government forces there is undoubtedly a significant victory. But hardly it can be called the turning point of the conflict in Syria. The turning point is the appearance of an order, according to which the Russian air forces received the opportunity to burn the beards of militants with the FABs, CABs and BETABs with subsequent connection to the Caspian operation flotilla and Long-Range Aviation. Without Russian intervention, with all the unconditional respect for the Syrian troops, which for years had opposed the terrorist plague, there would have been neither a release of Kuveiris, nor victories in Hama, Homs, Idlib, Latakia, Deir ez-Zor. There would be no “moderate” cutthroats running in ladies' outfits and mowing vegetation on the territory of Turkey. And Assad would probably not be either ...

A must! ..
During the week, Vladimir Putin made a statement in which he noted that Russia is ready to restructure the Ukrainian debt if Ukraine finds large financial private or state institutions that can give guarantees of payment. Vladimir Putin:
After these statements by Vladimir Putin, as well as after Dmitry Medvedev’s phrase that Ukraine should stop “getting out”, and finally recognize the 3 billion-dollar debt to the state (by the way, the IMF acknowledged), a battle of minds and theories began. On different sides of the barricades, supporters of version “A” - “Putinsil” and version “B” once again turned out to be - “This is another cunning plan of Putin.” In general, everything is approximately the same as with Strelkov-Girkin in the Donbass. Any action of this, to put it mildly, ambiguous individual, was declared by some “adventure”, and by others - “a complete and unconditional victory”.
Supporters of version "A" were already ready to gnaw through something to the supporters of the theory "B" and vice versa. But then “the commander with a broken head” Yatsenyuk appeared on the air and announced that, forgive one, hell, Ukraine is not going to pay a debt ... Take out, they say, put a discount and prolongation right up to the year 2019 ... As a result of the theory “Putin’s ”And“ Putin’s Cunning Plan ”hit the impenetrable (so far) wall of ukrology (or ukrogoliki), on which the same Yatsenyuk will do exclusively what his henchmen“ tell ”him - no more no less. And here you can invent at least a hundred plans, even with an outstanding subtext - while a puppet "amusing" seat sits in Kiev - these plans, in all likelihood, will be realized oh, how difficult ...

But "for the power offensive." Why the hell are we then parting this bodyagu with a debt?
Or do we forgive them and put a cross, with hope? that someday, maybe in a few decades, they will return it to us. Either we bring the case to a declaration of default and resolve issues in the courts. With gas it was all the same - we, like, principled - and then once, and here you are a discount, and with debt we will wait and give in debt.
Well, if Ukraine now has no money - with what fright will they appear in a year? On them what, the meteorite from gold should fall? In a year AGAIN, the same badagus will already be worth a billion, and will we again postpone the maturity date? Was it not easier then, like all sheep, to agree on restructuring and raise interest rates? And it’s clear that the “Western partners” do not guarantee and do not compensate for anything.
Why invent compromises where there was no compromise a month ago? It turns out that Ukraine is right, that it rested its horns on the ground, and we freaked out and retreated in the end. And no reasonable arguments you will not convince people of the opposite. Because that's what it looks like ...

October 23 launched the so-called public discussion of the initiative of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation concerning the abolition of the status of closed administrative-territorial entities (CATF) for six cities and towns of the Russian Federation. We are talking about the proposal of the Ministry of Economic Development to liquidate the status of the closed regional closed-trade centers for such settlements as Seversk (Tomsk region), Zarechny (Penza region), Novouralsk (Sverdlovsk region), Zelenogorsk (Krasnoyarsk region), Star (Perm region) and Lokomotivny (Chelyabinsk region).
Congenial initiative from the congenial “economic bloc”. After all, everything is for the sake of the people, in order to optimize costs and unconditionally increase income. And such an initiative, of course, needs to be given a green light ... Three green lights ... First, deprive the status of CATF, and then cover the strategically important enterprises themselves, in the place of them opening the next “Cheap cheap” hypermarkets and beer stalls “Beer at low tide”. Indeed, why does Russia need protection of closed cities against the background of the terrorist threat, why their state financing? We need to live easier: there is a ZATO - there are problems, there is no ZATO - there are no problems. Paraphrasing the famous hero: "With such initiatives and free? .."

Burn the country again?
How many times has it been written that with the coming winter, Ukraine and Ukrainians will begin to freeze like a mammoth. And the reason for this will be not just another global cooling, but a competent and thoughtful policy of the Ukrainian leadership.
In the meantime, there is talk of how many cubic meters of dung is needed to keep the legitimacy of the Ukrainian authorities in the tormenting torment of legitimacy, Mr. Poroshenko is trying to draw the attention of Western friends to Ukraine. Apparently, the feeling that many in the West decided to simply put on Ukraine, not only among ordinary Ukrainian citizens, but also such West confidants as Peter Alekseevich. Poroshenko announced that the fight against terrorism - the fight against terrorism, but in Europe "should not forget about the Russian aggression." They say, why are you such a thing, fiends, you allow it - you threw it with a visa regime, you have to beg for loans on your knees, you come to bow to Putin ... And then the West’s anti-Igilov coalition with Russia is on the agenda ... Zrada! ..
Yatsenyuk, who, in an interview with the Latvian press, announced that while in Paris, they declare their readiness to go with Russia in a united front against terrorists, the valiant Ukrainian army and the “European rampart” were the few things that still give Europe the opportunity to sleep peacefully in the face of "aggressive Russia".
There is a feeling that in order for Kiev to return the close attention of the West to Ukraine against the background of events taking place in the world, it remains for the Ukrainian authorities to set the country on fire again ...

So far the project of the advanced heavy destroyer XSUMXE Squall exists only on paper and in the computerized 23560D simulation programs of the Krylov State Research Center (KGNC), the most powerful and advanced ships of the fleet will remain the upgraded heavy nuclear missile cruisers of 3 Ave. Orlan. and more compact and technologically advanced frigates of the 1144 Admiral Gorshkov Ave. At least until 22350, these warships will be the main instruments of the air defense / missile defense and fleet strike operations in the oceanic theater of operations in likely major regional military conflicts.
If in a certain industry, as they once said, of a national economy, a real modernization is observed, then it is the Armed Forces of Russia (army and navy). With the modernization of the economy, the matter does not go beyond regular proposals for raising the retirement age and charging a separate payment from heavy trucks for traveling along federal highways, fortunately, the situation in the defense industry is different. Of course, not all defense components, as we would like, work is progressing at the Stakhanov pace, but there are results. Not just there, but they also force the eyes of our foreign "partners" to twitch, who suddenly began to understand something about the need to negotiate with Russia. There is a feeling that the flights of cruise missiles and strategic bombers are one of those “diplomatic” forces that dispelled the fog of American euphoria regarding the isolation of the Russian Federation.
If only from the demonstrated results in a single area themselves do not fall into a misty euphoria. The main thing: to work systematically and, most importantly, to assess themselves soberly.

Lit "event"
The British edition of the Daily Mail writes that the photographs obtained from the Hmeimim airbase in Syria “do not allow to doubt that Russia has delivered the C-400 anti-aircraft missile systems to Latakia”. The newspaper reports that the photos were taken by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, who invited foreign journalists to cover the events taking place at an air base in Syria, from where Russian military aircraft take off. Such images were allegedly published "consciously" in order to convey to foreign colleagues information about what weapons Russia can use in Syria.
The official representative of the Ministry of Defense Igor Konashenkov called the statement of the British media about finding C-400 in Latakia disinformation. He said: “Before frightening the British and the world with the deployment of our anti-aircraft missile system C-400 here, it was necessary to see what it was like, at least on Wikipedia or on the website of the Russian Ministry of Defense.”
Recall the British edition, and at the same time its readers, that the C-400 complex is a system designed to destroy aerospace attack weapons. This can really be read on Wikipedia. Different languages.
Repeat and italicize: for the destruction of funds attack. Do the British understand this? C-400 is a defensive weapon. Why would the West be afraid of him and show the world "photos"? Maybe the West is going attack?

Everything is mixed up in the Oblonskys' house
Echoes of the terrorist attacks on Paris swept through the Ukrainian blogosphere and the liberal fields of Russia. Not for nothing. There was a source. The formula for further information artillery preparation came up with the US Secretary of State. While at the Vienna meeting to work out ways to solve the Syrian crisis, Mr. Kerry said: "Assad and the terrorist groups of Syria find contacts with each other for trade relations." The “contacts” are the following: “Assad himself attracts ISIS terrorists in order to buy oil from them and then resell it”.
Having captured the essence of the analytical message of John Kerry, the Ukrainian "speaking helmets" and their Russian colleagues rushed to publish "exposing" materials with new forces. The logic is as follows: since "Asad is trading with ISIS, then Russia is in contact with ISIL, which means that it is Russia who has set terrorists on Paris."
In short, again, "Putin's hand." More precisely, two hands. With one hand, Putin destroys the "igilovtsev" in Syria, the second sends the same "igilovtsev" to Paris. One hand does not know what the other is doing. Well, it's Putin, he likes different surprises. Only a lazy expert does not write about these “surprises”.
This curve of logic of the West, as well as of Ukraine, leading unfunny propaganda on unfunished American manuals, seems to have led to a new disease, recently discovered by British scientists. The semi-paralysis of the brain is called. With this disease, the head is only suitable for eating and executing simple commands of the chief.

On November 16, the New York Times reported on the US Air Force’s air strikes against a convoy of tank trucks that Islamic State militants use to smuggle oil. 116 trucks from 295 were destroyed. Analysts wondered: why so far the United States has not undertaken similar attacks against terrorists who profit from the oil trade?
Pentagon spokesman Col. Steve Warren during a broadcast on the US Department of Defense website reported that combat pilots in Syria have “few targets.” And judging by the above, even the “few” pilots do not always see. "We attack them where we see," said Warren. American media say that pilots find it difficult to get permission to open fire: the command would fear civilian casualties.
“To reduce the risk to civilians, we scattered flyers and gave a demonstration of force. We sent airplanes that flew over trucks at low altitude, ”RIA“ Novosti ”quotes Warren. A military official showed journalists a leaflet showing people fleeing from tank trucks. The Arabic caption for the leaflet reads: “Get out of the trucks and run away.” Warren explained that such flyers were scattered about 45 minutes before the air strikes.
Washington's concern for civilians is somewhat unusual. Quite a few civilians have been killed by the Pentagon in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya, as well as in Pakistan and other countries where they fly without any demand from local governments. Drones. And when it comes to the "Islamic State" and its infrastructure, an ostentatious humanism immediately arises.
Alexander Khramchikhin, deputy director of the Institute for Political and Military Analysis, says for good reason that “all the current convulsions of the United States and its allies, expressed in the formation of coalition and air strikes on the“ caliphate ”capital, are just consequences of Russian intervention, to which we must somehow respond in order to show that they are actually fighting terrorism. ” In an interview with Free Press, the expert explained: “Although in reality no one was going to fight him in the West, especially Turkey, which is completely seated on the oil of the“ caliphate. ”
What kind of "coalition" led by the United States in this case can be said? What kind of fight against terrorism?

In secret around the world
Italian General Fabio Mini in the magazine "Limes" recently shared his fear: that, after the departure of Obama, the Americans will start a big war in Europe. This general is in the top NATO offices. At one time he led operations in Kosovo. For him, the plans of the US military are not a big secret.
According to Mini, “the persistent search for the enemy, which the Pentagon’s generals are busy with, can plunge Europe into a big conflict, and not necessarily with Russia.” The Italian general did not substantiate with whom, except Russia, the US could start a war, but he outlined scenarios in which the Baltic and Eastern European countries could be involved in a military conflict against the Russian Federation. In this case, they will be supported not so much by NATO, as by the US military as a separate force.
However, we recall that just a week after the well-known meeting in Sochi, President Obama was sitting in Turkish Belek in front of Putin and agreed on how not to push the military of the two states with their foreheads in Syria and in Ukraine. In fact, America is not ready for a real confrontation, about which so many and so boastfully stated other militant US presidential candidates, who spoke of the "Russian threat."

One for all and all for one
The current alarming situation in the European Union, caused by the influx of migrants, Angela Merkel is too tough. Where to her! She has no answer to the challenges. Experts believe that the German Chancellor is not able to cope even with their own government. Those whom she had previously considered as “friends” naively, now dig three shovels in her pit.
Barely a coalition government headed by Angela agreed on a new policy regarding the granting of political asylum to migrants, when Minister of the Interior Thomas de Mezieres suddenly appeared and said that the previously agreed programs had been significantly toughened. And then the spoken words are taken back: the special representative of the Chancellor announces that everything remains in its place. But this is not all: under the curtain, Wolfgang Schäuble (Minister of Finance of the Federal Republic of Germany) comes and declares that de Mezieres made the “necessary” decision to limit the number of migrants. And then there is Vice-Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel: he publicly rejects Merkel’s plans to create so-called “transit zones”. Moreover, Herr Gabriel challenges the Chancellor: he will run for the next federal election in 2017. “Every time we reach an agreement, a new proposal immediately appears that was not on the table before,” said Gabriel on TV. As a result, he believes, the Germans began to think that the left hand of the government does not know what the right one is doing.
Recall that hundreds of thousands of people, many of them Syrians, are seeking refuge in Germany. The ruling conservative coalition led by Angela Merkel is bursting at the seams. In addition, Germany is tormented by a scandal with atmospheric "emissions" of Volkswagen cars, and German football officials are under investigation for bribes (cases related to the World Cup 2006 of the year). Finally, the press has been carrying out the news of the espionage of German foreign intelligence for the Allies. And it turned out that the level of espionage was much higher than previously assumed. Germany spied on EU member states, including Poland, Austria, Denmark, and Croatia.
But last month, Angela Merkel was considered a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize. Did not work! And now her critics are challenging her authority, attacking the attempts of the Chancellor to solve the problem with migrants. The social democrats, Merkel’s junior partners in the government, are now seeking to prove that she (Merkel) was not at all ready to receive refugees who were rushing through the “open doors of Germany”.
Here you have the Nobel Prize, Frau Merkel. Here you have a new "Reich", rallying the "united Europe" under the German wing. Here you have the NSA surveillance and wiretapping of a personal cellular telephone. Themselves too indulge, is not it?
One gets the impression that Washington has thrown a million pages of compromising information on Angela Merkel, and her political rivals in Germany have not lost their chance. Apparently, the time has come to retire the old woman, and the idea of "united Europe" - in history.

Western Monster
The deputy of the German Bundestag from the Leftist faction Sarah Wagenknecht made a speech in which she criticized the policy of Angela Merkel and the entire European Union. On a Twitter page, Wagenknecht called the United States a monster created by Western civilization, and called for an end to the hypocritical policy pursued by the European Union under US administration.
In the meantime, let us add, the fruits of the "hypocritical policy" in Germany are reaped by Frau Chancellor, a big fan of refugees.
The other day she had a great scare. She and several ministers wanted to watch a football match between Germany and the Netherlands in Hannover. But instead of rooting for the team, shouting “go-o-o-ol” and cracking a beer, Angela and her ministers had to evacuate from the stadium. Police discovered an unidentified item there. Local police has evidence that one of the "football fans" was going to activate explosives in a suitcase.

Naturally, if the representative of the Left Party (former Communists) becomes the German Chancellor, the rhetoric of the statements of the first persons, like the policy of Germany, will change very much. And it is unlikely that the rhetoric of this leftist politician, Sarah Wagenknecht, would have changed a lot if she became the chancellor of Germany. Another thing is that the probability of this in the foreseeable future is extremely small. In contrast to the anti-globalization right of the “National Front” in France, the chances of the Left Party in Germany to come to power in the near future are practically nil. Although everything can begin to change in the near future with the development of the socio-economic crisis in Europe. True, in Germany, as in France, in this case, the chances of the far-right parties are much higher. But for Russia, both are good. Because both the truly left and the right-wing European parties see Russia as their ally, and in the USA as an adversary.
Gathered to listen to "outcast"
At the reception at the Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, held at the G20 summit, one of the most popular figures was Vladimir Putin. Barack Obama spoke of the “importance of military efforts” of Russia in Syria. This gave analysts a reason to talk about the fact that Moscow is no longer an “outcast” in world politics.
Experts talked about changing the "tone" of Washington. The Wall Street Journal writes directly that the White House’s comments after the meeting of the two presidents at the G20 summit testify to the “change in tone” of the US administration regarding the actions of the Russian Federation in Syria.
French ex-president Nicolas Sarkozy said: "There can be no two coalitions in Syria."
British Prime Minister David Cameron said that the positions of Russia and Great Britain regarding the need to defeat the "Islamic State" are the same.
Recall that a few days ago it became known that in the framework of the new national security strategy, London is preparing to recognize Russia as “a threat of a higher order”. The founding strategic document should be presented to 23 on November by the same Cameron. According to an unnamed source in the government, Russia was on the list of the main threats because of the policy towards Ukraine, the expansion of the military presence in Kaliningrad and operations in Syria.
As you can see, the position of Western leaders is changing before our eyes. It is unlikely, of course, that Russia is removed from the list of “threats”, but after the brutal Islamist terrorist attacks in Paris, a rapprochement between the West and Moscow became obvious even to the most ardent “anti-Soviet” supporters of the Cold War and the arms race. Obama, and especially Cameron, who, in essence, repeats Obama, is unlikely to continue to “stigmatize” Russia for its “counterproductive” strategy in Syria. On the contrary, the current G20 summit will begin counting the days to the strategic rapprochement of the Middle East coalition between Russia, Iran and Syria and a coalition led by the United States that has not yet given effective results in the fight against IG.
Sarkozy is right this time: "There can be no two coalitions in Syria."
There can not be two coalitions where the world has one enemy - terrorism. The West sees late, but better late than never.
Hopefully, this epiphany will be the historical outcome of the G20 summit.
