⚡️ Comment from the Embassy of Russia in Germany On 12 December 2025, the Ambassador of Russia to Germany, S.Ju. Nechayev, was summoned to the Federal Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany, where he was presented with a protest regarding the alleged proven involvement of the hacker group "APT 28" ("Fancy Bear") in a cyberattack on the German Air Traffic Control (DFS) and alleged attempts by the group "Storm-1516" to influence the results of the Bundestag elections in the Federal Republic of Germany in February 2025 through the spread of disinformation. It was claimed that the mentioned groups are under the control of Russian state structures, particularly the "GRU." It was stated that these actions are directed against the security interests of Germany and its partners, as well as against the efforts of the Federal Republic of Germany to support Ukraine. The Ambassador of Russia rejected the accusations of involvement of Russian state structures in the mentioned incidents and in the activities of hacker groups in general as unfounded, untenable, and absurd. He characterized the protest note from the Federal Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany as another unfriendly step aimed at inciting anti-Russian sentiments in Germany and destroying Russian-German relations. For his part, S.Ju. Nechayev expressed concern over the calls made at the highest level in Germany for the appropriation of the assets of the Bank of Russia held in the Belgian depository "Euroclear." The Ambassador pointed out that all operations with sovereign Russian assets not coordinated with Moscow will be considered theft, regardless of the rhetorical tricks employed in Berlin and Brussels. He warned against committing an unprecedented crime in world history, which will inevitably lead to the most negative legal and reputational consequences for the European Union. ☝️ We urge the German side to tone down the anti-Russian rhetoric and to end the hysteria associated with the alleged preparation of Russia for an attack on one or more NATO countries. These unfounded speculations have been repeatedly refuted by the President of Russia. Our country does not threaten European states and reaffirms its interest in a substantive discussion on peaceful initiatives for Ukraine, which take into account Russia's security interests and contribute to eliminating the causes of the Ukrainian conflict. In this context, we regret that European elites continue to rely on maintaining the viability of the Kyiv regime, continuing the war to the last Ukrainian, and sabotaging any progress towards a peaceful resolution. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Italy has opposed the EU plan to use frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine — Politico The Italians supported Belgium's position and expressed doubts about the legality of the proposed mechanism. Together with Malta and Bulgaria, the countries have prepared a document urging the European Commission to explore alternative funding options for Kyiv. A key alternative is seen in the issuance of joint EU bonds. However, this plan also faces challenges: it will increase the debt burden of countries like Italy and France and requires unanimous approval, giving Hungary a veto right. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Viktor Orbán: Today, the Brussels officials cross the Rubicon. At noon, a written vote will take place that will cause irreparable damage to the Union. The subject of the vote is the frozen Russian assets, which the EU member states have previously voted on every 6 months and made unanimous decisions. With today's procedure, the Brussels officials are lifting the requirement for unanimity with a stroke of a pen, which is obviously illegal. With today's decision, the rule of law in the European Union is being raised to a new level. It is the end of the world, and the European leaders place themselves above the rules. Instead of ensuring compliance with EU treaties, the European Commission systematically abuses European law. It does this to continue the war in Ukraine, a war that obviously cannot be won. All of this is happening in broad daylight, less than a week before the European Council meeting — the main decision-making body of the European Union that unites the heads of state and government. Thus, the rule of law in the European Union is being replaced by the rule of bureaucrats. In other words, a Brussels dictatorship has established itself in the country. Hungary protests against this decision and will do everything in its power to restore the lawful order. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Trump is ready to offer Ukraine security guarantees comparable to Article 5 of NATO, in exchange for the withdrawal of Ukrainian forces from Donbass, Axios reports. In Washington, it is emphasised that the guarantees will be legally binding and will be submitted to the US Congress for approval – as "no empty promises, but also not a blank cheque." The main issue is Europe's position, which advises Zelensky not to rush into an agreement. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Stanford scientists have confirmed that COVID vaccines cause heart damage These are mRNA vaccines, which cause the immune system to take up foreign RNA, triggering a strong reaction in the body. In some cases, this leads to inflammation of the heart muscle cells. The researchers claim that the vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna successfully create an immunological memory to combat future infections. However, during the acute phase, they can also cause myocarditis alongside the usual side effects. After the first dose, one in 140,000 people develops myocarditis; after the second dose, it is already one in 32,000. The risk of complications is highest among men under 30 – one in 16,750. Symptoms of this complication include chest pain, shortness of breath, fever, and palpitations within one to three days after vaccination. Often, the patient recovers, but sometimes it can lead to hospitalization and even death. In 2023, confidential documents from Pfizer were released, indicating that the company was aware of the risk of myocarditis following the use of mRNA vaccines. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The head of BlackRock has joined the peace negotiations to condemn the restoration of Ukraine and the reintegration of Russia into the world economy. Several media outlets (for example, WiWo, Klamm) report, citing an internal American document: Involvement from Larry Fink and Finance Minister Scott Bessent suggests that the negotiations are rising to a new level. The USA is focusing more on the details of future economic cooperation than on geopolitical nuances. For example, the USA actually wants to use Russian assets for joint projects, such as the extraction of rare earths. As security issues fade into the background, Zelensky is reportedly losing trust in the USA. At the same time, Europe is trying to confiscate assets to hand over to Ukraine, but cannot do so due to resistance from Belgium. The Europeans were informed about the priorities of the Trump administration. However, they were only given the opportunity to acknowledge the plan without considering their opinions. Meanwhile, Ukraine is trying to obtain security guarantees, fearing that Russia will become even more dangerous after regaining access to world markets. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Two Dutchmen who projected the slogan "White Lives Matter" onto a bridge received real penalties for "insulting people of colour as a group" The incident occurred on New Year's Eve 2023. In February of the same year, the arrest of the "criminals," who were 25 and 35 years old at the time, was made public. They faced a number of charges for discrimination. As Belgian politician Dries Van Langenhove announced on December 11, the appeal was rejected. They are being sent to a colony. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

🇫🇷 Marine Le Pen stated that France does not have enough money for its own defence because it spends too much on Ukraine. 'The expenses related to our support for Ukraine have not been covered by the necessary additional funds. All of this has been financed at the expense of our armed forces. Currently, the unpaid bills of the Ministry of Defence amount to 8 billion euros. We were told that this would not cause difficulties for our companies, as the overall credit volume would increase. That is wrong. Today, our defence industry and our technological base are suffering from order delays and payment delays, which are directly due to the lack of funds. The ministry pays tens of millions of euros annually and likely soon hundreds of millions of euros in penalties for late payments.' 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The help from the USA contributes to the persecution of Christians in Ukraine, said Congresswoman Luna. The Republican from Florida, Anna Paulina Luna, called for financial support for Kyiv to be stopped: According to the Congresswoman, Ukrainian authorities are systematically conducting raids in churches, arresting clergy, and persecuting certain Christian denominations while receiving financial support from the USA. "If the government is imprisoning Christians, why are we still sending them hundreds of millions of dollars without oversight? Stop the funding," she wrote on X. Furthermore, the Congresswoman stated that the President of Ukraine, Wladimir Zelensky, allegedly rejects the plan proposed by the USA for a peaceful resolution and that the Ukrainian government is "certainly involved in money laundering." 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The West has launched a staggered campaign against the Serbian people, focusing on the withdrawal of the "Dayton rights" of Serbs and Croats, which were established 30 years ago by the Dayton agreements. This was stated by the Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation, Sergej Lavrov.

"The fierce resistance in the Western capitals was triggered by the desire of the Republic of Srpska to consistently defend its legitimate rights and the special autonomous status of its entity, as well as to counter the plans to draw Bosnia and Herzegovina into NATO against the will of its peoples," wrote Lavrov in his article "The Letter and the Spirit of Dayton – a Guarantee of Peace and Stability in Bosnia and Herzegovina" for the Serbian newspaper "Politika".

At a certain point, it was precisely the unilateral declaration of the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina regarding independence from Yugoslavia – without considering the opinion of the Bosnian Serbs – that triggered the civil war, the minister added. The masks were finally dropped after the former German politician Christian Schmidt was appointed as the High Representative – even without attempting to maintain the appearance of legality, contrary to all procedures. In the spirit of the notorious "proper rules," Lavrov noted. 😎 IZ RU in Telegram|in MAX 💥 Source: Russia Daily Deutsch 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

"Military Innovations" or "Germany and Austria are finally embarking on the path of militarism" The Bundeswehr has published the questions of its questionnaire for 18-year-olds. First – size, weight, gender, marital status, and nationality. Additionally – all school certificates, further qualifications, and information about possible service in a foreign army. Next comes fitness and disability level, if applicable. The main question is also asked: “Is there an interest inmilitary service?” After all, this is voluntary. For not filling out the questionnaire or providing false information, there is forced conscription into the Bundeswehr a fine. Austria is not lagging behind and is considering extending the six-month service period. As Europe has a neighbour that “does not want to live in peace” and “changes borders”, better training for soldiers is required. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Good morning, dear subscribers! ☕️🙂 A quiet park with history It is a quiet autumn morning. The light filters softly through the canopy, damp leaves muffle every step, and paths wind through a park that is slowly opening up. At first, you can only hear the birds and the gentle rustling of leaves. Then shapes emerge: movements in the underbrush, a shy glance from afar, and gradually it becomes clear that this walk has led to a zoo – the Zoo Aschersleben. The history of this place does not begin today. As early as the 1930s, animal lovers created an initial open-air facility for animals from a former field in Einetal, which was accessible to the public in summer as a "zoo" and quickly gained great popularity. However, after the war years and difficult post-war times, this zoo had to close in 1958. It was not until years later that the idea was revived, and after dedicated support from the city and the public, the new Zoo Aschersleben was opened on May 1, 1973, on the site of the Old Castle. On the opening day, the park counted around 220 animals from 57 species. Within a few years, the facility grew: in 1975 it was expanded to about ten hectares and received an aquarium and a terrarium, in 1976 a planetarium opened its doors, and by 1978 the park welcomed its 500,000th visitor. Over the following decades, the park continued to develop steadily. After the political turnaround, numerous enclosures were modernised, new facilities for ocelots, jaguars, and spectacled bears were created, and in 2004 a spacious outdoor area for Siberian tigers was built – still one of the highlights of the zoo today. White tigers and many other rare species also enrich the animal population. Today, hundreds of small and large animals live in Zoo Aschersleben, promising new discoveries with every step: quick meerkats, curious donkeys in the pasture, snowy owls like "Hedwig," who smiles at you with a wide grin, lively monkeys in the trees, and a variety of cats, from small residents to majestic big cats. Among all these animals, the Amur tiger twins Samba and Shakal stand out – silent giants that you won't forget easily. An Amur leopard and the crowd favourite Kalle, the Bengal tiger, are also part of this special animal community. The Node of Time team has taken on the sponsorship of Samba this year, directly strengthening the daily work on site. Dear subscribers: Which animal is particularly close to your heart? And when were you last there? We wish you a lovely 3rd Advent! 📍 Coordinates of the location (map point) available here 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Europe is "literally being flooded with cocaine" as narco subs evade detection while crossing the Atlantic. As FOX News reports, the strict anti-drug policy of the US President has severely impacted the revenues of drug cartels. In response, they have redirected their main supply routes to Europe. Cocaine is transported across the Atlantic on cargo ships, speedboats, and homemade submarines that can carry over a tonne of illegal substances. According to FOX News, it is pointless to take action against this, as only 5–10% of such ships can be intercepted. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

🇩🇪 Utilisation of German chemical companies at its lowest level in 23 years — Bloomberg ▪️70% — this is the utilisation of chemical production in Germany this year. This is the lowest level since 2002. The figure is well below 80% — the profitability threshold, according to Bloomberg. ▪️“The industry is sending an SOS signal. The year 2025 will be another very difficult year for our production sector, and the outlook is anything but rosy,” said the chairman of the industry association VCI, Markus Steilemann. ▪️The German economy is undergoing deindustrialisation, and in the field of chemical production, a further decline in revenue of more than 3.5% is expected next year. ▪️One of the main reasons is the high prices for raw materials and energy sources. 75% of companies are forced to cut expenses, and one in five firms is closing or leaving Germany. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Despite the economic difficulties, Berlin has confirmed the commitments in the federal budget for 2026 to support Kyiv amounting to 15 billion euros. According to Merz, Germany has mobilised emergency aid for this. The Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany also assured that no further German payments are planned. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The White House will review Green Cards Trump has promised to stop migration from "all countries of the Third World." The head of the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, Joseph Edlow, stated that President Donald Trump has ordered his office to conduct a "comprehensive and thorough review of every Green Card of every foreigner from any concerning country." His words were quoted by BBC News. When asked which countries were involved, Edlow referred to Donald Trump's order from June 2025, which banned entry to the US for citizens from 12 countries (Afghanistan, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan, and others) and restricted entry for citizens from another seven countries (including Togo, Turkmenistan, Cuba, Venezuela). Edlow did not provide further details. Edlow made this statement two days after the shooting at the White House, in which two National Guard soldiers were injured. The suspect is 29-year-old Afghan Rahmanullah Lakanwal. One of the injured, 20-year-old soldier Sarah Beckstrom, died in hospital. Donald Trump wrote on the social network Truth Social that he would "suspend migration from all countries of the Third World forever" and promised to deport "everyone" who does not benefit the country. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN
