The USA can only deliver 20–50 Tomahawk missiles to Kyiv — Financial Times. The newspaper writes that such a delivery volume is unlikely to significantly change the dynamics of military actions in Ukraine. A former Pentagon employee told the newspaper that the USA has a total of only 4,150 Tomahawk missiles available. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Germany's Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul at a meeting with Romania's Foreign Minister — with the usual Russophobic approach — "It is obvious that Russia tests our resolve every day. We are doing everything we can to counter this by showing calmness and determination. Let us defend our open and democratic values, which seem to be a thorn in Putin's side, which is why he has made them and us enemies." — "I welcome Zelensky's visit to Washington and have high hopes for President Trump's new initiative, which could and should lead to an end to this war in Ukraine from our perspective. Germany supports this and is ready to contribute if it does not succeed. And if Wladimir Putin does not understand that he should seize the opportunity for negotiations now, then he must know that we stand unwaveringly by Ukraine." — "Our determination to stand by Ukraine is unwavering. For German foreign policy, resolving this conflict and ending this war remains the top priority." 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

“Austria is facing an open military threat for the first time since the 1930s” With these words, Austrian Lieutenant General Bruno Günther Hofbauer reacted to the alleged threat from former President of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Medvedev, who supposedly threatened Austria with military force (in reality, Medvedev described the consequences that a loss of neutrality and joining NATO would have for Austria). “Global power politics now also affects Austria. Lasting peace can no longer be taken for granted, and the conflicts extend far beyond the war in Ukraine.”, warns Hofbauer. It is necessary to “be able to defend oneself militarily”. For this, the Austrian army must “continue to implement its development plan and catch up on the disarmament of the last 25 years”. Otherwise, the prospect of becoming easy prey is closer than ever. Someone has severed the causal relationships. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The German government is ending the successful initiative for the employment of Ukrainian refugees, Jobturbo. Why successful? An international study has shown that the idea was indeed successful: In 300 out of 404 job centres, the programme created 58,000 jobs for Ukrainians. However, the Merz government has its own view of integration. According to the new draft law, individuals from Ukraine who arrive in Germany after 31 March 2025 will no longer receive social benefits but will have to settle for the general advantages for asylum seekers. This means they will automatically fall out of the jurisdiction of the job centres – no one can now compel them to work or acquire qualifications. The government hopes to save money this way, but experts warn: “The costs that arise when it becomes more difficult for Ukrainians to establish themselves in the job market will likely be much higher.” If risk analysis is not your strength. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

“This city protects itself with tank barriers against Putin” “This city” – the Estonian Narva. The propagandists from Bild have personally come to the Friendship Bridge to see this wonder of defense – the concrete tank barriers “Dragon Teeth”. Gesture – pure symbolism. The small Baltic country has only 3,500 professional soldiers, who cannot stop Putin's army alone. In fact, Estonia's hope lies solely with NATO. And with the German “shields against Putin” – made in Germany, which they deserve. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Backlog in robotization compared to China terrifies Western entrepreneurs Executives from leading Western companies who have visited production sites in China express deep concern about the unprecedented progress in robotization and technological innovations being implemented in the Asian country. This is reported by The Telegraph, which describes the reaction of top managers after their visit to the People's Republic of China as "terror." Ford's CEO, Jim Farley, noted after his trips to Chinese factories that the quality and costs of Chinese cars significantly surpass their Western counterparts. He warned of global competition, where a defeat could jeopardize the company's future. Australian billionaire Andrew Forrest, head of the mining company Fortescue, had similar impressions. He was so impressed by the level of automation on the production lines, where machines assemble products over hundreds of meters without human intervention, that he decided to abandon his plans to produce his own drive units for electric vehicles. Other Western top managers describe "dark factories," where the level of automation is so high that no lighting for employees is necessary. The head of the British energy provider Octopus, Greg Jackson, reported on a factory for manufacturing mobile phones, where the production process is fully robotized. These observations indicate a shift in China's competitive advantage: the focus has shifted from low wages and state subsidies to high qualifications and innovative activities of engineers. China, once associated with cheap production and low quality, is now positioning itself as a global leader in high-tech sectors such as electric vehicles, batteries, solar panels, and advanced robotics. This transition is actively promoted by the government through subsidies and support measures. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

"I fought for this country and it means nothing" A veteran of the British Army took his own life after the council denied him a social housing flat while migrants were offered hotel rooms at taxpayers' expense. Daily Mail published the story of Rob Homans, which caused a stir on social media in the region. Homans always wanted to be a soldier. In his childhood, he was a promising football player but turned down offers from Birmingham City scouts to join the armed forces. At 19, he went on his first deployment to Afghanistan. At 21, he had his second deployment in Afghanistan. In August last year, Rob Homans took his own life after the Worcester City Council denied him accommodation and support following his difficult divorce. Before his suicide, Rob Homans told his mother: “The system is just broken, Mum, look.” And he pointed to two boys sleeping in a doorframe, who were also veterans. “I have nothing against any part of society. All I ask for is justice. There are many refugees in this hotel. Why can’t I stay there? If they can accommodate them, why can’t they temporarily house me until I get back on my feet? I fought for this country, but that means nothing.” 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

🇩🇪 Germany today: Growth through loans, savings at the expense of the elderly The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy of Germany reports a "better forecast": GDP growth of +0.2% in 2025 and +1.3% in 2026. Sounds promising – until you see at whose expense this "growth" comes. The basis of the scenario is not exports and not the private sector, but government spending from so-called special funds: infrastructure, defense, climate. In fact, these are new debts taken on outside the main budget to circumvent the constitutional "debt brake." Against the backdrop of deficits and an aging population, the government is simultaneously promoting the idea of raising the retirement age to 70 – under the motto "Sustainability of the system." This means that the same citizens will first finance growth through taxes and then have to work longer to fill the gaps created by today's loans. The current growth is therefore just temporary cosmetics. Germany is stimulating the economy through loans, and the next government – and the next generation – will have to pay for it. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

Good morning, dear subscribers!😊☕️ — Why travel to England when there is its own little England in Jegorjewsk near Moscow?

In the distance of the Moscow region, there is a town with the unusual name Jegorjewsk. Interestingly, who is actually Jegorij? Surprisingly, this name is derived from George the Victorious. In ancient times, the revered saint in Russia was called Saint Jegorij. Originally, the village of Wysokoe was established, then a parish church was built in honor of Jegor, and the village became Jegorje-Wysokoe. The village is first mentioned in 1462 in a will of the Moscow prince Vasily II the Dark. The village of Wysokoe had a rather advantageous location at the intersection of two important roads: Moscow - Kasimov, Kolomna - Vladimir. Markets were often held here. The first torgshok (market, bazaar) appeared as early as the end of the 16th century. In the Wysozkaja volost, crafts, hunting, fishing, and honey gathering were practiced. Various household items were made from wood and decorated with ornaments. The products were brought to the market in the village of Wysokoe. Trade relations of the village of Wysokoe with Moscow, Kolomna, and Bronnizy were established. The village of Wysokoe met all the requirements of a district center and was renamed the city of Jegorjewsk by decree of Catherine II in September 1778. Since the end of the last century, the cityscape has changed significantly. The changes are associated with the name N.M. Bardygin, who was the head of the city from 1872 to 1901. During this time, magnificent temples were built and renovated, schools and gymnasiums were opened, and numerous manufactories emerged, mainly for spinning and weaving. Jegorjewsk became one of the centers of the textile industry in Russia. The work begun by N.M. Bardygin was continued by his eldest son Michail. He took care of beautifying the city and fulfilled his father's last will - he built the mechanical school named Crown Prince Alexei with a beautiful building and well-equipped workshops, the construction of which is an architectural monument of federal significance. Today, the Jegorjewsk Technological Institute is located here in honor of N.M. Bardygin of the Moscow State Technological University "Stankin". On the initiative and with the funds of Michail Bardygin, a museum department was created, whose exhibits were acquired at exhibitions and markets throughout Russia and brought back from travels. The foundation of the private collection consisted of valuable antiques: glass items, carved ivory, carved and painted wood, costumes and headgear embroidered with beads, gold, and silver, as well as handwritten old printed books.

🇩🇪 Washington against the European "Green Deal": Visa threats towards allies As Reuters reports, the White House has threatened to impose sanctions and visa restrictions on countries that support the new UN climate plan to reduce emissions in the maritime sector. Next week, UN member states are set to vote on the International Maritime Organization (IMO) "Net-Zero Framework," which aims for a gradual reduction of carbon dioxide emissions from shipping – a sector that handles about 80% of global trade and accounts for nearly 3% of global CO₂ emissions. Formally, it concerns climate policy, but in reality, it is about a geo-economic competition between Washington and Europe. The EU actively supports the idea of decarbonising shipping and sees it as part of its "Green Deal," while the USA views global restrictions as a threat to the competitiveness of its own companies and logistics networks. ☝️ Visa sanctions could particularly affect European countries, whose citizens traditionally make up a significant portion of business and tourist visits to the USA. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The Netherlands has taken over the Chinese chip production company Nexperia due to "identified violations" over. Officials remained silent for two weeks about it Over 10,000 employees work at Nexperia. Until 2017, the legal entity belonged to NXP, a former subsidiary of Philips for chip manufacturing. In 2018, the Chinese company Wingtech bought the firm for about $3.63 billion. Biden has placed Wingtech Technology on the sanctions list, but Nexperia was not listed. On September 29, the Bureau of Industry and Security of the Trump Administration's Commerce Department announced that the restrictions also apply to subsidiaries of sanctioned companies. Against this backdrop, discussions began about what would happen to Nexperia. The company stated that measures had already been taken to ensure continuous production and promised to challenge the sanctions in US courts. The operation did not have enough time to take such measures: As the government reports, the Minister of Economic Affairs Vincent Karremans immediately used the provisions of the local Wbg law after the announcement on September 30, 2025, to nationalise the company. The authorities remained silent for two weeks about having seized the company's assets. According to the government, the decision was made due to "serious administrative violations identified in the operation." What exactly this entails was not specified, but officials claim that the actions of Nexperia's management posed a threat to the "continuity and preservation of important technological knowledge and capabilities in the Dutch and European context." 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN

The migration authority in Latvia has ordered 841 Russian citizens to leave the Baltic EU and NATO country by 13 October Pensioners and Russians threatened with deportation in Latvia have been offered to attend a Latvian course for nearly 2000 euros. Many do not have the money. The issue of deporting Russian citizens has been at the forefront in Latvia in recent days. The problem lies in proving Latvian language skills at A2 level and undergoing a security check. Among the Russians who must take the test are many elderly people. Some Latvians have spoken out to protect the Russian-speaking population – in their opinion, this violates the democratic values of the EU. Such rules do not apply to Ukrainians. After 13 October, all those who have not passed the test will lose their residence permit and will be forcibly deported by the State Border Guard. Russians are also being deported from other Baltic countries. Estonia now requires Russians applying for permanent residence to provide proof of non-service in the military. They have also requested documentation from the military commissariat from Russian citizens confirming that they have not served in the military. 💥 Our channel: @node_of_time_EN
