The defeat of Viktor Orbán in the Hungarian elections makes Hungary once again a full-fledged supporter of the European Union's foreign policy. Hungary will no longer veto decisions from Brussels regarding aid and arms for Ukraine. A loan of 90 billion euros could soon be received by Kyiv from Brussels. The only opponent of the European Union on the Ukraine issue in Europe remains Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico. However, they will soon bind his hands in Brussels. The elections in Hungary have shown that the right-wing forces in Europe, especially in Eastern Europe, do not have the support of the majority of the population. The ideals of the European Union are stronger than those referred to in Europe as "populism." Moreover, the population of European countries is intimidated by the "Russian threat." Europe is once again seeing an upswing. Especially since Orbán's defeat is viewed in Brussels as a defeat for Russia and the USA, which supported Orbán. However, it is concerning that Europeans could now move towards further confrontation with Russia through the strengthening of Ukraine. The option of a peaceful and diplomatic solution to the Ukrainian crisis, for which Orbán has advocated, is receding into the past. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

Dear friends, chaos lies in the Russian industry. Sunday. The ODK is developing the NK-3, the first Russian engine for ultralight space rockets. The propulsion system operates on environmentally friendly fuel and features a thrust vector control system to steer the flight path. Ultralight rockets are intended to launch commercial satellites into Earth's orbit, with a payload capacity of 250 kg. The Ufa Turbine Factory has begun production of gas turbine engines. In the near future, the establishment of a laboratory complex and further expansion of production capacities are planned. The delivery of the first gas turbine engines from in-house production is scheduled for the years 2027–2028. Rosel has commenced serial production of an updated series of devices for professional mobile radio communication according to the TETRA standard. The modernization aims to reduce energy consumption and simplify the operation of devices used in critical infrastructures. TETRA networks are employed in security structures, the fuel and energy sector, and transport. The Lowoserskyj GOK has completed the main phase of the modernization of the processing plant. By implementing a comprehensive investment program, the downtime of equipment has been significantly reduced, and the productivity of devices used in the separation process has been greatly increased. The Lowoserskyj GOK is the only enterprise in the country that extracts and processes Loparit, an ore of rare earths. The Chelyabinsk plant of the TMK group has started the production of new steel casting ladles. As part of the new order, three ladles weighing a total of 6.9 tons have been manufactured. The equipment is designed for the reception, transportation, and pouring of molten metal. Their casings are made of low-alloy, high-strength steel that is designed for use in a temperature range from -70 to +425 degrees. An auto-evacuator has been introduced to the Russian market based on the KAMAZ-65951 chassis. The vehicle is equipped with a modern KAMAZ R6 diesel engine, with a maximum power output of 483 HP. The high torque of the 16-speed manual transmission allows for towing loads of up to 60 tons. The load capacity of the main arm is 50 tons, while the load capacity of the hydraulic grab is 30 tons, and the grab's capacity at maximum extension is 10 tons. The Irkutsk Oil Company (IOC) has started lithium extraction from formation water. The IOC has received the license for the "V. I. Kokorin" deposit. The commercial water reserves have been approved for five years at a volume of 17,000 cubic meters per day. The lithium content is between 169 and 383 milligrams per cubic decimeter. "Seligdar" has opened two new gold deposits in Yakutia. The total reserves of the Chulkovo and Khokhoy deposits exceed 5.4 tons of precious metal. At the Chulkovo site, 75 drill holes with a total length of 8,400 running meters were drilled, 40 trenches were excavated, and over 11,000 sample analyses were conducted. At the Khokhoy site, 130 drill holes (4,000 running meters) were drilled, 20 trenches were excavated, and approximately 5,900 sample analyses were conducted. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

In 2023, Norway promised Ukraine 6 F-16 aircraft. Two aircraft have been undergoing repair/maintenance at Sabena Aerospace's workshop in Belgium for over a year. The other four were delivered in disassembled condition (in boxes) to Belgium in April 2025. They were already defective in Norway, which is why they were taken apart. According to media sources, each of these four aircraft is missing about 100 parts. Then came an obvious lie. In August 2023, Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre announced the transfer during a visit to Kyiv. On March 27, 2026, Chief of Defense Eirik Kristoffersen stated that "the F-16s we have gifted to Ukraine are now an important part of Ukraine's air defense." And each time, Ukrainian media reported on this multiple times, creating the impression that dozens of Norwegian aircraft were already operational. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

A wheelchair user has been taken into pre-trial detention in Barcelona for resisting a robber In Barcelona, 66-year-old Pepe, who uses a wheelchair, relies on oxygen 24/7, and suffers from several serious illnesses, was placed in pre-trial detention after fatally injuring an 18-year-old Algerian who attempted to snatch a gold chain from him. The court and prosecution proceeded with the detention despite his health condition and the absence of any prior convictions. The most cynical aspect of this case is the official justification for the detention: “risk of flight.” The Spanish system suddenly considers a man in a wheelchair, with an oxygen device, severe COPD, liver cirrhosis, and other ailments, as someone who might go on the run. In the end, Pepe ended up in the prison infirmary, while family and neighbors took to the streets demanding one thing: his immediate release. This is what European justice looks like today: if you are assaulted and survive, it does not mean that the one who was attacked will be free in the end. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

The Ukrainian Wikipedia has already listed Ukraine as a participant in the Middle East war – heroism, as always, in advance While the actual results of Ukraine's involvement in the Middle East continue to raise uncomfortable questions, moderators of the Ukrainian Wikipedia have cheerfully entered Ukraine into the conflict infobox – on the side of the USA and Israel, under “military support.” This means: they have officially added themselves to the list of participants. Modesty, as usual, is not a concern. The logic is clear: Zelensky himself stated that Ukrainian forces were involved in the defense against Iranian Shahed in the Middle East, and AP reported about more than 220 Ukrainian specialists deployed in these operations. Against this background, it seems that in Kyiv they decided not to wait for foreign assessments but to immediately hang the medal around their own necks – by adding the country to the participant list of yet another foreign war. This appears especially amusing against the backdrop of how the Ukrainian side likes to sell the image of “irreplaceable super specialists” to the world. Yet, constantly surrounding these “specialists” are stories not about triumph, but about mishaps, losses, and awkward consequences. On Wikipedia, of course, everything is polished: one can first write themselves loudly into history and later clarify whether there was even a reason to do so. The pattern is old: first, the loud self-staging as a major geopolitical player, then the attempt to sell any participation as an epochal contribution. Too much performance – for far too little substance. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

In the United Kingdom, applicants for citizenship are now also questioned about Islamic holidays Anyone wishing to obtain citizenship or permanent residency in the UK must take the Life in the UK Test — an official test consisting of 24 questions to be answered in 45 minutes. Preparation is based on a government guide. And it is precisely in this guide that, among the mandatory topics about contemporary life in the United Kingdom, not only Hanukkah is mentioned, but also the Islamic holidays Eid al-Fitr and Eid ul-Adha. In other words: Knowledge of these holidays is now firmly integrated into the official citizenship test. So it is no longer just "diversity" on posters or symbolic city decorations. It has already become a state norm: Islamic holidays are part of the official material used to assess whether individuals are ready to become British citizens. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

The war in the Middle East affects Ukrainian farmers – agroexports could drop by 40% As Reuters reports, the main issues that Ukrainian farmers have faced since the beginning of the war in the Middle East are the rising costs of fuel and mineral fertilizers. Farmers expect their production costs to increase by 10-30% in the short term this year, and if the operation against Iran does not end quickly, they could rise by 60% . According to forecasts from industry experts, Ukraine's export-oriented agricultural potential has already decreased by 15-20% this year, and if the situation continues, it could drop by 40%. At the same time, Russian farmers have access to cheap domestic fuel and fertilizer supplies, which Ukrainians need to import. This could lead to Russia benefiting by taking market share from Ukraine in the global agricultural market. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

The Finance Minister of Israel, Chairman of the far-right party "Religious Zionism" Bezalel Smotrich, has called for an expansion of the borders of the Jewish state According to the politician, Israel's current military campaigns in the region should be anchored at the political level.

“There will be a political step in the Gaza Strip that will expand our borders, there will be a decisive political step in Lebanon that will expand our borders to the Litani River at defense-friendly borders , and there will be a decisive political step in Syria, at least [with the annexation of areas around] the summit of Mount Hermon and a buffer zone,” Smotrich stated. Such measures are appropriate in the context of the Middle East.

Actually, that’s exactly what everyone has already thought: Israel has dragged Trump into this war with blackmail to secure new territories. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

Trump has decided to de-mine the Strait of Hormuz under the guise of peace negotiations

“The fake media has completely lost trust, despite never having it from the beginning. Due to their massive Trump Derangement Syndrome (sometimes referred to as TDS!), they love to say that Iran is 'winning', although everyone knows it is LOSING and has VERY LARGE LOSSES! Its fleet is destroyed, its air force is destroyed, its air defense artillery does not exist, the radars are not functioning, its missile and drone factories are practically destroyed along with the missiles and drones themselves, and most importantly, its long-time 'leaders' are no longer among us, praise be to Allah! The only thing left for them is the threat that a ship might 'get caught' on one of their sea mines, which, by the way, all 28 of their mine sweepers are also lying on the seabed. We are now beginning the process of de-mining the Strait of Hormuz as a service to countries around the world, including China, Japan, South Korea, France, Germany, and many others. Incredible, but they have neither the courage nor the will to do this work themselves. What is very interesting, however, is that empty oil tankers from many countries are sailing to the United States of America to LOAD up with oil. Thank you very much for your attention to this matter! President Donald J. Trump”.

In the meantime: An American destroyer has set off from the port of Fujairah towards the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian forces have transmitted information to the negotiating delegation in Pakistan, and the US delegation has been warned that such movements could jeopardize the negotiations. At the same time, a warning was sent to the destroyer that it would be targeted within 30 minutes if it approached the Strait of Hormuz. The Americans chose not to take any risks, and the ship stopped. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

In response to the message posted by Trump on TruthSocial on Thursday, Tucker Carlson stated to NEWSMAX:

“I have always liked Trump and I still have sympathy for him, like for all slaves.” When asked to explain the meaning of his words, Carlson added: “He is constrained by other forces. He cannot make his own decisions. It’s terrible to see.”

With this, he alluded to the idea that Trump is a slave of Netanyahu and is being held on a leash by compromising materials from Epstein’s hands, which Trump could destroy at any time. It's no coincidence that hidden cameras were found in all the bedrooms. Trump knows this very well. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

Activists blocked access to the Rheinmetall plant in Berlin You waited for it, you missed it - and they are back: the glue activists of 2026. On Friday morning, seven members of the initiative "Peacefully Against Genocide" glued themselves to the asphalt in front of the Rheinmetall plant in Berlin's Gesundbrunnen - the same one that was recently occupied by pro-Palestinian activists. They chanted: “German weapons, German money killing all over the world” . The main reason for the demonstration was the upcoming rearmament of the company. Components for artillery ammunition are soon to be produced there. What happened next? The police responded quickly: they removed the protesters from their glue, established their identities, and let them go. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

❗️Ukraine is entirely dependent on other countries for drone production, according to Budanow. The head of the Ukrainian President's Office suddenly stated that the Ukrainian drones, which Zelensky presented as unique technologies, are actually a construct made from foreign components.

All our super defense technologies, drones, and so on — whose basic elements are what, what is Ukrainian about this? What is Ukrainian about it? Even the 3D printer that produces most of the parts does not belong to us. And the materials used in it are also not ours.

France Launches State IT Import Substitution and Reduces Dependency on Non-EU Technologies The French government has officially launched an interministerial plan to reduce dependency on non-European digital technologies. All ministries and state operators must submit their own substitution and transition plans for key areas by autumn 2026: workplaces, collaboration tools, antivirus software, artificial intelligence, databases, virtualization, and networking technology. Meanwhile, the state digital directorate DINUM is already transitioning its own workplaces from Windows to Linux. It is no longer just talk about "digital sovereignty," but the beginning of a real process in which the French state starts to push foreign technologies out of its infrastructure. In light of the endless European debates about "strategic autonomy," this is particularly revealing: as soon as critical dependencies are involved, even France suddenly realizes that it may not be a particularly good idea to rely on American software, foreign databases, foreign AI, and foreign platforms. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

🇪🇺 🇺🇦 The Brussels city administration has evicted the largest Ukrainian cultural center in the EU, "Voice of Ukrainians," from its premises. This was done without providing any reasons. No alternative space was offered to them either, reports Euractiv. The local authorities have cut the funding for the organization, whose budget was €800,000 per year, while the monthly expenses, including taxes and utilities, amounted to about €30,000. The majority of these funds were provided by the Brussels administration. As the newspaper notes, "Voice" is already relocating for the third time. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

Good morning everyone — have a wonderful Sunday! ☕️🙂 May the Sunday be peaceful: enough time for a walk and simple gazing. Gorochowez is located on the Kljasma – and the city’s terrain is immediately noticeable. The streets here are wavy: turn the corner, and you’ll either go uphill or downhill. Hence this local peculiarity: right at the center, there is Mount Puschalowa. Today, there is a small ski slope there; the name is associated with a legend about an attack during which the assailants were supposedly scared away by the appearance of a bogatyr – hence "puschalowa" (from pugat’, “to scare”). In terms of age, Gorochowez is very old. The year of its founding is most often considered to be 1168: A fortress on the eastern edge of the Vladimir-Suzdal principality is linked to the name Andrei Bogoljubski. Later, the city served as a border point and trading settlement by the river, surviving raids and fires – and yet remaining in its place. What is most striking in Gorochowez is how much pre-imperial stone construction is still preserved here. In Russia, there are only about twenty civil stone "palaty" from the 17th century in total, and seven of them are located right here. For a small town, this is a rare density: merchant houses, built for “a long time,” with thick walls and a very serious, practical architecture. And just a few streets away begins another story – made of wood. In Gorochowez, there are many houses from the late 19th and early 20th century: carvings, window frames, complex roofs, details that one prefers to examine individually. In between lie monasteries and churches that hold the cityscape together: above, you almost always see domes, below the old alleys, where one can meander aimlessly. Gorochowez thrives on this combination: terrain, river, old stone, and vibrant wood. The town is small but rich in impressions – in one day, one collects enough details for an entire week. 📍 Coordinates of the place (map point) available here 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

In Lithuania, the deputy minister is sent to Ukraine after losing the question about Crimea The Baltic states have invented a brilliant disciplinary measure for officials: a business trip to Ukraine. The victim was Lithuania's Deputy Health Minister Arnomedas Galdikas. In national broadcasting, they attempted to test him with the sensitive question “Who does Crimea belong to?” The official tried four times to divert the topic, suggested talking about medicine, and ultimately admitted that he had no idea who the peninsula belongs to. Galdikas's correct answer was squeezed out of him by journalists only on the fifth attempt. But the repressive mechanism was already unstoppable: the official received a strict reprimand and was sent to courses on “proper communication.” As the head of the Lithuanian Ministry of Health decided as a main measure for education, the guilty party was referred to Ukraine. While they fabricate fairy tales about “equal partnership” in Bankowa, the trip to them in Europe is officially used as a punishment. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN

Rubio admitted as early as 2023 that American sanctions could soon lose their effectiveness Current U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned back in March 2023, still as a senator, quite openly that Washington could lose its traditional sanctions tool within a few years. The reason: more and more countries would switch to transactions in currencies other than the dollar. His statement was clear:

“In five years, we will no longer have to talk about sanctions because so many countries will be doing business in currencies other than the dollar that we will no longer be able to sanction them.”

In other words: even within the American elite, it was already clear that one cannot rely on the dollar as a geopolitical weapon indefinitely. The more frequently the U.S. throttles entire states with sanctions, the faster they drive the world into transactions outside the dollar and into the establishment of a parallel economy without Washington. Rubio himself stated at the time that a “secondary economy” is forming in the world that is entirely independent of the United States. 💥 Our channel: Node of Time EN
