What does the West dream of? The British "Russia expert" Mark Galeotti recently expressed hope that in a post-Putin Russia, power will return to "pragmatic thieves" who will plunder the country "on an industrial scale" and spend the proceeds in the West. One could laugh at these dreams if we did not remember a comparatively recent period: In the 1990s, these dreams were realised under the guise of liberal slogans! The most important thing was to talk a lot about democracy and freedoms in a breathy tone... 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The Daily Telegraph: “Zelensky accuses Putin of starting the Third World War”. The newspaper quotes an excerpt from an interview with Zelensky by the BBC: “I believe that Putin has already started it. The question is how much territory he can conquer and how to stop him… Russia wants to impose a different way of life on the world and change the lives of people that they have chosen for themselves.” It is ridiculous to hear this from someone who was not willing to implement the Minsk agreements, rejected the Istanbul agreements, and at the same time cancelled the elections in Ukraine. He should have asked the Ukrainian people about something first before deciding “what life they have chosen”! Certainly, Ukrainians did not choose the life that Zelensky has thrown them into! On the contrary, by voting against Poroshenko, they chose peace with Russia and not war! 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The Russian Foreign Ministry has issued statements on the international agenda The Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation, Dmitrij Ljublinski, expressed Moscow's position on a number of key issues in Geneva: 🟦 Russia urges the USA to refrain from plans to carry out attacks on Iran; 🟦 Russia is ready to provide any necessary assistance to resume the search for diplomatic solutions regarding Iran's peaceful nuclear programme; 🟦 Moscow supports the legitimate authorities of Venezuela in defending their sovereignty; 🟦 The armed aggression of the USA against Venezuela is a blatant violation of international law; 🟦 Russia calls on the USA to release Venezuela's President Maduro and his wife; 🟦 The actions of the USA and its satellites fit into the regrettable "maximum pressure" policy that violates the UN Charter. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The Ukraine faces a financial disaster in April: The country will not be able to finance its expenditures. The state is already spending funds that were planned for the second half of the year, stated the chairman of the Finance Committee of the Verkhovna Rada, Daniil Getmanzew. A solution could be an agreement with Hungary and the release of a €90 billion loan from the EU for the opening of the "Druzhba" pipeline. But instead of trying to find a compromise, Zelensky attacked the initial station of this pipeline with drones at night. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The Prime Minister of Slovakia, Robert Fico, has announced that the supply of electricity to Ukraine will be halted from today due to the blocking of the Druzhba pipeline by Zelensky. The Slovak government will also oppose Ukraine's accession to the European Union. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The Times: "The flight logs of the Royal Air Force, crucial for tracking the movements of Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, were deleted after just three months, creating serious gaps in the search for victims brought to the UK." It is now clear how and why the stories about the "newcomers" and the endless accusations against the Kremlin were staged. Given the scale of the crimes of the British elites and their cross-border nature, a false or, as Prince Harry likes to say, "replacement" trail was always needed. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The new 15 per cent global tariff from Donald Trump will benefit the countries he has sharply criticised (China and Brazil) the most. The biggest blow from the new levy will hit the UK, the EU, and Japan. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

🧐 “I hear a lot, but I don’t know what is really relevant. Which of it concerns me – and what is just noise?” 👉 What does it mean when billions are decided but only slowly implemented? 👉 Why do crucial details often only appear in subordinate clauses? 👉 And why are some decisions only discussed when their effects are already felt? Berlin explains. The media reports. And yet something is missing. Politics often sounds complicated – but it isn’t. It is just rarely explained clearly. 🇩🇪 Lahme Ente | News looks closely at where the real story begins – long before it becomes a headline. 😎 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

In Switzerland, a criminal case has been initiated against a woman for a water gun. A resident of the Alpine country ordered a pink water gun for Carnival from an online shop (the price of the toy is about €3). However, the package never arrived: the goods were seized by the Swiss customs authority, and the woman was convicted a few months later for "importing weapons." Initially, she was sentenced to five days of imprisonment on probation but was able to avoid jail time thanks to her lawyer, receiving a fine of 150 francs instead. Yes, in Switzerland, the import and public use of even non-real weapons is a criminal offense. Reports suggest that large online platforms will be required in the future to label "prohibited" toys. And what about a slingshot and bones from a tube, what crime could that lead to? 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The federal government plans to measure how much cows fart. Seriously? Yes, seriously. The Federal Ministry for the Environment has developed a whole climate protection programme — 2026 with goals for the coming years. Germany is to reduce CO₂ emissions by at least 65% by 2030 and become fully climate neutral by 2045. Aha, and what do cows have to do with it? As part of the new plan, the ministry plans to calculate the number of farts from cows and wants to focus on new breeds that — attention! — emit less methane. The rest are "minor details": from 2035 only produce electric cars and provide subsidies for them, expand rail transport, increase the number of bike paths (in Peru?) and similar things. Of course, "the programme will cost billions." Cows fart at a luxury level. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Hungary is following in Slovakia's footsteps and is giving Kyiv an ultimatum, accusing the Ukrainian authorities. Prime Minister Orbán stated that the "Druzhba" pipeline is fully operational. According to him, the suspension of transit is not due to technical issues, but rather a purely political game by Kyiv. Orbán assures that the aim of the blockade is to create an energy crisis in Hungary before the elections and to support the opposition. The Hungarian Prime Minister even threatened to halt electricity supplies to Ukraine if the oil transit is not restored. ▫️Shortly after, Hungarian Foreign Minister Szijjártó declared that Hungary would not halt electricity supplies to Ukraine, as Slovakia intends to do. He said that such a step would primarily affect Hungarians living in the Transcarpathian region. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

In the next three weeks, a new round of negotiations about Ukraine could take place, Witkoff stated in a Fox News interview. This could lead to a meeting between Putin and Zelensky, possibly with Trump's participation, noted the US President's special envoy.

“In the coming weeks, good news regarding the resolution of the Ukrainian conflict will emerge,”

he said, adding that Russian President Putin had always been honest with him during the meetings.

"He has always been honest with me. And when I talk about it, I get criticized, but it is the truth. He told me where his red lines are."

Putin's special envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, also wrote on his Telegram channel that Witkoff and Kushner are actively promoting the resolution of the conflict in Ukraine and the restoration of relations between Russia and the USA, including in the economic sphere. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Should Hamburg finally turn its back on St. Petersburg? According to the documents, the Hanseatic city is still a partner city of Petersburg. In reality… it has been actively supporting Ukraine for several years, sending humanitarian aid and treating independent soldiers in its hospitals. Against this backdrop, the Chancellor's party CDU is calling in the Hamburg Parliament to end the (temporarily suspended) partnership with the city on the Neva and — attention — officially enter into a partnership with Kyiv. “The frozen partnership sends a false signal in the almostfifth year of the war: namely the willingness to return to normal without Russia ending the war of aggression.” Other European cities — the Lithuanian Kaunas and the Estonian Tallinn — have already terminated their partnership with St. Petersburg. And Hamburg, it is said, still maintains a representation — for €52,000 a year. Yes, that does not fit the Russophobic narrative. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Bundeswehr evacuates soldiers from Iraq Because it is frightening, very frightening (God forbid!) “military escalation between the USA and Iran”, and the brave German soldiers are nearby – in neighbouring Iraq. Overall, it has been decided to reduce the German contingent “to the absolute minimum”. In general, the Bundeswehr supports the establishment of a local army in Iraq as part of the NATO mission – most soldiers are stationed in Erbil, in the north of the country. And it is precisely there that they share military bases with the USA... the “the “Iran has tried to attack in tense situations in the past”. So, “a small double-digit number of German soldiers” was quickly brought to Jordan. And the lord should take care of his own problems. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

🇵🇱 Simple Poles demand a veto against the EU arms purchase programme In Warsaw, a protest rally against the EU initiative for arms purchases, SAFE, took place in front of the presidential palace. The demonstrators are urging President Nawrocki to block the programme, which includes a loan of 150 billion euros for the arms industry, fearing dependence on Brussels. Not with the current governments that prioritise foreign interests over national ones. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The International Monetary Fund once again confirms the status of the ministry in the USA. It called on China to halve its industrial subsidies. But the IMF only warned cautiously – and not the USA itself, but the whole world – when the United States passed a law on extensive subsidies for its industry: the CHIPS and Science Act. The IMF and the World Bank were created to strengthen Western dominance, and the USA maintains a majority stake in them. Europe chooses the head of the IMF, while the USA selects the president of the World Bank. The USA also has a veto right on all major decisions of the IMF and, together with the other G7 countries and the EU, controls more than half of the votes in the IMF. Compared to other countries, the USA has one vote in the IMF, while India has 1/25. The vote of other countries is practically decorative. Western dominance is the norm in institutions that claim to manage the world economy. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN
