What is a paradox? As a practical description of this term, one can cite an event related to a formalized Ukrainian complaint against Russia, which intends to implement the Nord Stream-2 project. The paradox is that the complaint was sent by the Ukrainian government to the European Commission, but neither Russia nor Ukraine itself has any relation to the European Commission by definition. In this regard, the question arises: why does Kiev complain to the European Commission, and not, for example, to the League of Arab States or the African Union? After all, Ukraine is not a member of the League of Arab States or the African Union either ...
In the meantime, the complainants formulated another complaint against Gazprom, Ukrainian journalists unexpectedly dug up something on the complainants themselves. A material appeared in the Ukrainian press that the Ukrainian Ministry of Energy purchases certain amounts of coal from South Africa only in order to “legalize” coal from Donbass, which enters Ukraine through the territory of Russia. South African coal in this case works as a cover for contacts with “separatists” (well, Kiev still names representatives of Donbass): the main volumes of coal for Ukraine are Donbas, but under the guise of South African.
The corruption scheme, in which officials are trying to feed themselves in this way, has become one of the many schemes that flourish in violent colors in the “Square”. Minister of Economic

The Russian company Rosnano, whose chairman of the board remains the permanent Anatoly Chubais, with his deputies Yakov Urinson and Andrei Rappoport, publishes fresh news about his stormy research and production activities. The publications are of particular interest, especially if one considers the presence of the sensational statement by Anatoliy Borisovich mentioned above at the New Year party corporate event that “we (that is, they) have a lot of money ... a lot of money”.
One of the news is the bankruptcy of the battery manufacturing plant, in which investments from the 2011 year in total amounted to as many as 15 billion rubles. The most interesting thing is this: Rosnano states that they have the hope of Liotech (this was the name of the enterprise) - they say, while the factory is bankrupt, it will show itself how it takes, and how it develops unique batteries, which hot cakes will be bought up on the vast expanses of the world market.
It turns out that so far the plant has not developed anything competitive and has not found sales markets. And looking for? ..
Conclusion: in order to realize the unprofitability of the project, it is necessary to invest 15 billion rubles into it and immediately start the bankruptcy procedure ... Where is the money, Zin? ..

During the week, the French Canal + showed the documentary “Masks of the Revolution” about Maidan events in Ukraine. The film, whose ratings turned out to be very high, was a real revelation for the majority of the French, especially if we take into account the fact that the author demonstrated the Maidan ghouls according to their essence, and not in the form of bright elves of the “pursuit of democracy”.
Despite the fact that the film was shown on one of the paid channels, the interest in the film in France turned out to be great. Ukrainian elites went into hysterics: they say, how is it - we are here, you know, we are building democracy and protecting Europa from aHressor, and they show this kind of people!
Official Kiev authorities even protested that the broadcasting Canal + It turned out to be a film that at least reveals the essence of the Maidan coup for Europeans. In general, the usual Kiev snot and whining exclamations with attempts to stomp short legs.
Stamping, stomping ... Meanwhile, the Chief Military Prosecutor of the “Square” Matios declared the participants of the Maidan events, Pravosek, to be an illegal armed group, which must be immediately disarmed. Pravoseki at first thought that Matios had messed up something in the text, but then they realized that he was serious ... And the snot of pravoveki began to flood the Ukrainian air. Spitting and blowing nose of indignation, pravoseki demanded “an apology on their knees” from Matios. At hand they must have already had a Voodoo doll with the prosecutor’s face glued over and a set of needles from a local manufacturer. Matios is still holding up.

Sniff, gentlemen! ..
Last week the commander of what is called the Navy fleet Ukraine, Vice Admiral Gaiduk, announced that the submarine forces of Ukraine should become the pride of the Ukrainian Navy. There are no forces yet, but they are not going to dig for this additional water area of the Black Sea. But at the suggestion of European parliamentarians who visited Crimea with an “inspection mission”, in Kiev they have now announced “a clear readiness to follow the path of the return of Crimea.” And after returning, they say, the “pride of the Ukrainian Navy” will be based precisely in the Crimea ...
After visiting the Crimea, where the European parliamentarians were already sent with a resolution set in advance “from above”, they declared in clear voices: “We will lift the sanctions only when you return the Crimea to Ukraine!” Yes, yes, they rightly said that they say that Ukraine’s activists and prohibit Crimeans watch Ukrainian TV.
An image of a sophisticated masochist immediately emerges before my eyes, who suddenly decided to watch Ukrainian TV, being an average resident of the Crimean peninsula ... The trouble for MEPs is that Ukrainian TV is trying not to watch Ukrainian TV itself, even if there is nothing more to watch ...
And by and large, the resolution of eurobubbled was pleased - the sanctions would not be lifted, and rotten tomatoes and apples, along with heaps of manure, Belgian, French and Spanish farmers will continue to dump under the windows of the same European Parliament - sniff, gentlemen! ..

“Bridgehead in Debaltseve” - thriller of the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces with a happy ending
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine published a report on how, according to the version of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, events developed near the village of Debaltseve. At the same time in the General Staff and today the events of January-February 2015 of the year are called events on the “Debaltsev bridgehead”. The report states that 136 of Ukrainian soldiers were killed on the “bridgehead”, 331 was injured, 7 was captured, 18 went missing.
The essence of the report has been reduced to the fact that the unwashed hordes of Russian barbarians broke through Debaltseve to Kharkov, but, having met the strongest resistance of the Ukrainian army, were pretty exhausted - the breakthrough choked. And Kharkov exhaled ... And at this moment, the valiant Ukrainian army quietly, literally on tiptoe - in order not to rattle with medals and orders, left the bridgehead for pre-equipped positions.
Naturally, the decisive role in this blitzkrieg on the Russian adversary and occupier was played by the professional work of the top leaders of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Risking their own lives (after all, the temperature in the steam room on Khreshchatyk was over a hundred, plus the girls of their escort service added a spark), the Ukrainian generals led the Debaltsev operation, the number of drunk cognac glasses telling their subordinates how many regiments were ready to come up for help in defeat the enemy hordes! .. Peremoga!

According to Poroshenko, who spoke at the National Security and Defense Council, the line of the latest military products manufactured by Ukrainian enterprises must be expanded. According to Poroshenko, cruise missiles on the basis of the “developed” project “Neptune” should become one of the elements of such an “expansion”.
Pedro, namely in the article Poroshenko christened German BILD, said that “soon, soon, now”, Ukrainian-made cruise missiles no worse than “some” Calibrov will begin to cut airspace. The question is whether the Yuzhnoye Design Bureau, which has high hopes, specialists and funds to complete the work on the creation of this class of weapons, remains? And is the creative idea of the maidan even ready to go further than the drawings of the sheathing of trucks with steel sheets and rods of the “80 level of protection”?
But even this is not the main issues. The main thing is this: does Ukraine need something of its own for such purposes? After all, the same "friends" from the United States with a sly can put Mr. Poroshenko "Ukrainian cruise missile." And what can the monkeys that brought Don Pedro to the presidency be able to do with such a “grenade” - a separate conversation ...

The sudden discovery of Western scientists: Russia has military aircraft
The counterterrorist operation in Syria has attracted world attention to the Russian technology involved in it, writes Stern magazine. “The Russian Su-35С is considered the most dangerous fighter in the world. Its design is based on technologies that go back to the combat power of the USSR. The predecessor of the aircraft was the Soviet Su-27, whose mass production began in the 1982 year. Su-35S enters the arms market, incorporating the best characteristics of fourth-generation fighter aircraft and the basic properties of the fifth. "
Well, they lauded, lauded ... "Sterns", "Spiegel", and other National Interests. Before the start of the Russian counterterrorist operation in Syria (with reference to Kiev specialists), one gets the impression that Russia seriously believed that Russia had only two types of weapons - one rifle for three and a fairly rusty atomic bomb, which soldiers in moth-eaten coats rolled from place into place, creating the appearance of having powerful strategic nuclear forces. And when they saw Su-35C in the sky of Syria, they started to wipe their glasses, not understanding why on the “American coalition” planes red stars and Cyrillic ...
WTF, - they say, - so this is a Russian plane! .. - Joe, urgently dial Erdogan, call sign “Fuel truck” in a notebook, so that Turkish pilots go to the toilet before the flight ... Let them not break the action of the “clear sky” program ".

There is not much aggression ...
The report of Jens Stoltenberg appeared on the website of the North Atlantic Alliance. The NATO Secretary General claims that in 2013, the Russians conducted exercises that simulated a nuclear strike on Sweden. The Swedish press, having carefully studied the Stoltenberg hypothesis, is sounding the alarm. The exercises mentioned by Stoltenberg, which took place near the eastern border of the Stockholm archipelago, showed the weakness of the Swedish army: there is no need to speak of any operational reaction to maneuvers, since the servicemen went on leave.
The promise of recent Western publications about Russia and President Vladimir Putin is simple to the anecdotal: Do you know the Dead Sea? - Putin killed ...
If in the 2013 year, Russia “imitated a nuclear strike on Sweden,” then why did Stoltenberg say so now, and not then, his predecessor Rasmussen, who at that time headed the NATO office? Why only now decided this “sensation” to pour into the infospace? Because the same Sweden is being tried to be dragged into NATO with all its forces and means against the background of fanning fables about the “Russian threat”. They say, look, the Swedes, you have not only "undetectable" Russian submarines scare fish to fishermen, Putin is already aiming his nuclear weapon at you, and he is aiming at breaks between how he makes dope athletes take Pocket Blatter and cover it with a pocket polonium litvinenko head to toe ...
Well, at least they didn’t think to declare that Russia besides “Carlsons, who have a roof problem,” inflicted their training nuclear strike on Liechtenstein and Andorra ...

Germany is difficult without Russia
The Prime Minister of Bavaria, Horst Seehofer visited Moscow. And I intend to visit her again in the fall. Recall Seehofer is the main critic of the German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
During the visit, the Bavarian Prime Minister met with Vladimir Putin, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, Head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov, Head of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of the Russian Federation Alexei Ulyukayev.
According to Seehofer, his visit to Russia was “timely, necessary and successful,” notes "RT".
As for Western sanctions against Russia, they called Seehofer "a mistake."
Herr Seehofer, who will come to Moscow again in the fall, has criticized Angela Merkel’s position in everything, starting with the crisis of migrants. It can be said that he is a politician completely opposite to the current chancellor.
It is not surprising to understand Seehofer: it is through his Bavaria that hundreds of thousands of refugees enter Germany. And up to 24% of the refugees, Bavaria is not going to travel further. The Bavarian authorities even proposed to condemn Angela Merkel for her open door position.
And one more thing is important to know about Seehofer: he adheres to the point of view that no major European crisis can be resolved without cooperation with Russia. According to the German, Russia should be a full-fledged participant in the process of resolving European crises.

The Kingdom of Bavaria existed before the Franco-Prussian War and the unification of Germany.
The idea of regional trade at Seehofer is interesting. Can be extended to other countries.

He looks to the sky, sees the Russians
The Turkish Foreign Ministry summoned "on the carpet" the Russian ambassador in Ankara in connection with the allegedly new violation of the country's airspace. "The Turkish Foreign Ministry said that a Russian military aircraft violated Turkish airspace on Friday," Reuters writes. In a statement, the agency "called for a stop to violate the airspace" of the country.
In addition, on Saturday last week, President Erdogan, in the course of communication with journalists, said that he would like to personally meet with Vladimir Putin: “Yesterday there was a violation of our airspace by a Russian plane. Such irresponsible steps, in which we see an escalation of the crisis, benefit neither Russia nor NATO-Russia relations, nor regional and global peace, they only bring harm. Yesterday, these considerations were expressed by the Russian ambassador to Ankara [Andrei Karlov]. At the same time, I asked the Deputy Foreign Minister to contact the Russian side and convey that I personally want to talk to dear Putin. Our ambassador informed that this information was transmitted to [the Russian side], but up to this point we have not received a response. ”
What such Erdogan needs an answer? The answer to the “incident” was already given in Moscow.
If the Turkish side claims that on January 29 the pilot of the Russian Su-34 was warned in Russian and English about the violation of Turkish airspace, then Moscow denies the charges and demands evidence.
So where is the evidence, Mr. Erdogan?

Also, the Turkish Air Force translated into an orange alarm: this means that they can open fire according to circumstances, at the discretion of the pilot.
In the footsteps of psaki
Since the Turks have failed to provide evidence of a violation of Turkey’s air border by a Russian plane, NATO has taken the case. His offense to give!
The journalists decided to apply to NATO with a request to show them documentary evidence and data of means of objective control, which would confirm the crossing of the Su-34 Turkish border from Syria. The NATO response is quoted by RIA Novosti: “According to the information we have, the Russian military aircraft violated Turkey’s air borders on Friday [January 29]. There are images of violation, but they are classified. ”
NATO has exactly the same logic logic as Erdogan. Why did the pictures with the Russian plane suddenly become secret? If a violation of shouting at every corner, then it would seem, and the pictures should be pasted at every corner! Then the whole world will rebel: here they are, Russians, what they are! Aggressors!
The situation is clear: NATO has no “images”. But it would be strange if the alliance surrendered its own - Turk Erdogan. Try to imagine how the NATO Secretary General criticizes a NATO member and convinces a respectable public that Russia is right!

Sunk in the sun
On YouTube, there was a record of the use of a heavy flame-throwing system “Sunshinek” on the positions of extremists in Syria. “The fire was fueled by thermobaric shells. The details of the operations in which the flamethrower system was used, the author of the video does not lead, "- said" Reedus. "
Reports that “Sunshine” appeared in Syria appeared in the beginning of October 2015. They were tweeted by Hassan Ridha.
"Sunlight" is designed to disable lightly armored and automotive vehicles, arson and destruction of buildings and buildings, the destruction of enemy personnel, located in open areas and in fortifications. The temperature at the epicenter of the explosions rises to a thousand degrees.

"Advanced", "effective" and "astounding"
Having published a video with the Syrian military chronicle, whose personnel recorded the precise work of the Russian military, the publication Business Insider noted that the operation in the CAP demonstrated new capabilities of the RF Armed Forces, which "came as a surprise to the world."
"The Syrian campaign has allowed Russia to test in the combat conditions new military aircraft, as well as cruise missiles, whose flight range exceeds that of the American counterparts," RIA Novosti reports, Michael Kofman, an expert from the Kennan Institute in Washington.
“This is an amazingly effective weapon,” said an expert on the Russian Gauges.
"Russian tactics and strategy have also become more advanced," - said the publication.
“Advanced,” “effective,” and “striking,” is a series of epithets that NATO analysts flinch at and head for the Pentagon’s strategy strategist. Because these epithets are not related to American weapons, but to Russian ones.
It is a weapon, “striking” in the literal sense. Hit the target, you know.

West loses info war
The Americans took aim and started firing. In fact, they still can't get in. The first targets were Russia Today and LifeNews TV channels. Both are accused of "propaganda", and therefore the verdict: "Execute, you can not pardon." "Democracy" is designed to stop the information invasion of "authoritarian regimes". Christopher Walker, vice president of the Democracy Foundation, announced this.
In a report entitled “Hijacking“ soft power, ”Mr. Walker shared his own thoughts with the public. According to him, if you do not win the information war against the competitors, then the West is threatened with “a dark prospect of an even greater erosion of the democratic space in the coming years.”
According to Walker, the main threats to US influence in the world are Russia, China and Iran. And here is the specifics: the Chinese CCTV channel and the Russian Russia Today and LifeNews were announced as the focus of information evil.
So, Christopher Walker exposed the "propaganda" activities of the Russians and the Chinese, which creates "threats" to the US global influence. And since such a thing, Washington, and at the same time Brussels accountable to it, according to Walker, should modernize media resources, defending their point of view and competing with the media from “authoritarian states”.
If the West does not win the informational war, it is threatened by the “gloomy prospect of an even greater erosion of the democratic space”.
We think that the “dark perspective” threatens the Western media because of their own stupidity. Films such as the recent BBC biography about Putin’s “riches” are slapped by such amateurs and contain such “evidence” that you wonder. Truly, the BBC must urgently be "modernized." However, this broadcast company ridiculed even Evelyn Waugh. With the modernization is clearly late ...

In the index of economic freedom, calculated by the Heritage Foundation and The Wall Street Journal, Russia was lowered to 153 places. In the meantime, financial analysts have announced that BRICS no longer exists, but there are TIKKS: Taiwan, India, China, Korea, South Africa. The recession in Brazil and Russia excluded these countries from the acronym. In Ukraine, the Russians are not doing well either: an expert from the American Foreign Policy Council points out that “Russian troops” can no longer “attack” there. In parallel, the Western media focused on the topic of corruption in Russia.
Those interested can see a table with indicators of the index of economic freedom on the website. Heritage Foundation.
Russia hit the 153 place, scoring 50,6 points (–1,5 points) and hitting the very bottom of the list of countries whose economies are “mostly non-free”.
For comparison: Ukraine is classified by experts in the group of states with “depressed economies” (repressed) and placed in the 162 -th place. Here is located and Belarus (157-e place).
Thus, in Russia there is something else to "suppress", and in Belarus and Ukraine, apparently, there is nothing left ...

So there is nothing surprising. How to put them in place? You just need to methodically defend your point of view, bring to light the "masters of the world" on contradictions, just bend your line. That which is built on lies will fall apart sooner or later under evidence of evidence. You just have to wait patiently. Time works for us. And for me personally, what I see is more important than what they are trying to convince me. In my opinion, this should be done at the state level.
Power is in the truth!
Oil prayer
Twists of the oil market amaze even experienced businessmen and financiers. We did not expect, they say, that someday we will pray for high oil prices. It turns out that the growth of the global economy today largely relies on countries rich in oil. With cheap oil, developing countries trading in raw materials become poorer and buy fewer goods, which is why the developed countries suffer from these goods.
“I never thought that I would ever want to do this, not to mention the fact that I would really pray for high oil prices, but I do it!” Exclaimed Khan de Jong, chief economist at ABN Amro Bank NV (Amsterdam). According to the expert, the world "badly needs higher oil prices."
Meanwhile, oil-producing Venezuela began ... to buy oil from the United States.
The problem of the state oil company of Venezuela is that, having access to the world's largest oil reserves, it is forced to use light oil from abroad, with which its oil refineries work, mixing it with heavy oil.
And how is oil-producing Russia doing?
In December last year, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said that the Russian budget in 2016 could lose less of the order of 2% of GDP revenue, while maintaining current oil prices and the ruble exchange rate.
13 January RIA “News” conveyed the words of Anton Siluanov, who spoke at the session of the Gaidar Economic Forum. In his opinion, the Russian budget will be balanced at the price of oil in 82 dollars per barrel.
But such a price will not fall from the sky. Siluanov understands this. And therefore he says: “Our task now is to bring the budget in line with ... new realities. Because if we said that the private sector more or less adapted to the price of oil around 40 dollars per barrel, this process now continues further in the face of declining oil prices. ”
Therefore, the endless "adaptation" of the private sector to the "new realities" (very similar to the old realities, they are the same rake) - this is what the Russian people will be doing in the near future. Obviously, the government will also “adapt”, which, in anticipation of obese years, will deal, as we think, with substantial cuts in budget expenditures and will begin to get used to chronic budget deficits — as in Yeltsin's times.
Well, and there, you see, and oil will rise in price.
