This one about Dushanbe and Astana.
Dushanbe seems to request increased cooperation with Astana.
Maybe Dushanbe supports Kazakh leadership in the region.
Notice this description of the Irish economy.
Homelessness and then people are leaving.
That's great if they come to America or England.

"On March 13, the President of the Republic of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon received Secretary General of the Collective Security Treaty Organization Imangali Tasmagambetov, who arrived in Dushanbe on a working visit."

In Turkmenistan they are naming cities zealot words.
Maybe it means there is radical Islam in Ashgabat.
Also, in Arkadag the internet isn't working because of the police surveillance systems.
In Ireland, there is a false sense that work needs to be done to unite NI with Dublin.
The labor unions are opposed to the unification.
Maybe that means they have jobs.
Some kind of strange who wants a united Dublin and Belfast?

"The real attitude of the Turkmen authorities to information technology was best illustrated, however, by how internet speeds slowed drastically in the days ahead of this event."

"The very name Arkadag, a term meaning patron-protector, was picked as this is the honorific by which Berdymukhamedov is known."

"The task is so daunting and the capacity to deliver it so limited that it verges on the absurd."

"Unionists avoid discussing the specifics of a united Ireland in the hope of making it less likely."

Today there are lots of mentions of Zelensky.
He's visiting Bulgaria.
He's talking about energy stuff and the army.
He's talking about the counteroffensive.
The complaint is that the government in Ukraine is incompetent because they don't want to do normal government tasks.
Notice this mention of Lithuania and the Baltic Sea.
Maybe the Germans use the ports in the Baltic States.

Alright.
Both of these are pretty crazy.
About Ireland and Israel.
The whole theory is that German ships sail past Dublin on their way to Tel Aviv.
And so we're blaming the Garda.
The Garda is the Irish federal police.
They kind of seem to search boats for contraband.
I actually have a lot of notes already about the Garda.
They have off duty Garda show up to help with parades, etc.
They're supposed to be monitoring for foreign warships.
And so it's crazy then about the electorate and what they think of Israel.
It would be all over the place about Irish opinions about Tel Aviv.

This one about Astana and the SCO.
I guess the German navy gets to CA through South Asia?
They use the ports in India, Sri Lanka, and Burma?
Also, maybe Astana is in favor of sanctions against Russia?
That's kind of nuts because remember FM Billstrom in Belgrade.
It's as though Kassym-Jomart Tokayev agrees that President Vucic is supposed to impose sanctions against Moscow.
I would like Astana generally to stay out of sanctions discussions.

That is Her Excellency Barbara Woodward. She is saying very intelligent things about British foreign policy.

The Wayne Rooney one really wasn't all clear. He himself has been arrested in Virginia. The team has been fined for how they hired him. Other complaints. The team has been investigated for making bigoted comments during the games.

It seems like lopsided trade between Dushanbe and Beijing. As trade grows it might get more lopsided. It seems both in the political and military spheres. It has to be friendship and solidarity and cooperation?
Notice this description of the Irish economy. The foreign investment and then there aren't enough apartments. I guess the foreigners who invest live in the Dublin apartments.
This is about the British economy and drinking on holiday.

[The Bulgarian police arrested a drunk British man on the night of Sunday to Monday at the Sofia airport after an emergency landing of a flight from the Turkish resort of Bodrum to Glasgow, BNR reported, referring to the "Daily Mail". About 10 minutes after the plane took off from Bodrum, a drunken man threatened to open the door of the plane of the low-cost company Jet2 during the flight. Another passenger - 52-year-old Anthony Spence - fought with him for about an hour to hold him back and prevent him from doing something stupid, until the emergency landing in Sofia. Only two of the flight attendants helped him. Pilots were forced to make an emergency landing in the Bulgarian capital last night to remove the "disturbing" passenger.]

The Bishkek police seem highly trained about internet stuff. It seems like sick FSB stuff. Why are these people wanting to control the internet?
Also weird state owned television.
It seems like the Germans train the Kyrgyz police.
An independent probe in Kyrgyzstan has concluded that the National Television and Radio Corporation (NTRC) created a network of fake social accounts to promote the government’s policies and attack its critics.

The video report said that pro-government reportage and comments have increased on Kyrgyz social media since the taxpayer-funded NTRC opened a special department to disseminate information online. The department -- SMM and New Media -- was launched in November.

Here, maybe the German navy is active in both Kabul and Burma and that's why the news compares them. Maybe Burma is in South Asia like Pakistan and Afghanistan. Also, notice the UN and Burma. Maybe the Germans go to Burma for UN reasons. That could send the German navy to those ports.

After Afghanistan, Burma is the world’s second-largest producer of opium, heroin

The blast from the past? Grim forecast for Germany According to leading business leaders and experts forecast for Germany are grim, predicting tough times ahead for Europe's largest economy. After falling into recession at the beginning of the year, it seems that Germany will end the year in the red and at the bottom of its Eurozone competitors, reports Bosnian Klix. Although the German government still predicts the growth of GDP this year, the main economic institutes and the IMF predict a decline of 0.2 to 0.4 percent on the other hand. Rising inflation, painful interest rate hikes, a slow recovery in China's key export market, and high energy costs are weighing on these activities. "This is not going to be a temporary problem," some analysts warn, reports France24. "At the moment, we see the country facing a growing number of challenges," said Siegfried Russwurm, head of the influential BDI industrial lobby. Mr. Russwurm pointed out that an increasing number of companies, including small and medium ones, are working on relocating part of their activities from Germany. The media headlines remind of Germany’s status during the 1990s fearing that Germany used to be Europe’s “weak link”, recalling the period before 2000 when the country struggled on international markets and faced high levels of unemployment. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is now pointing to a different economic era. In an interview with German media in March, he said the drive to achieve climate neutrality by 2045 would return "growth levels to the 1950s and 1960s," the era of West Germany's postwar "economic miracle." For the Social Democratic chancellor, the huge spending needed to install new wind turbines, build electric vehicles, and reduce pollution from steel production will create a virtuous circle of prosperity. But the vision of a new golden age of the economy due to the transition to green energy leaves some experts skeptical. "The transition will primarily see billions of euros invested in replacing existing stocks of fossil fuel technologies with renewable technologies, at significantly higher costs. This will not lead to additional economic growth in the short term," Russwurm said. The country is also hampered by structural weaknesses that hamper economic performance: a slow bureaucracy, low levels of digitization, and an aging population that could lead to labor shortages. Mr. Timo Wollmershauser from the Ifo economic think-tank believes that "If the population is sinking, the GDP will not grow either." With its economy heavily reliant on manufacturing, Germany appears to be suffering from energy costs that have risen since the start of the Ukrainian war, although the prices have slightly dropped from their early peaks. Russia has long been Germany's main source of gas, supplying huge quantities at relatively low prices to the country's biggest industrial groups.

In this accession, European principles and standards will be strictly observed. For this, good cooperation is definitely necessary and regional cooperation remains an essential element, as well as stabilization so that the accession process can be implemented.

It matters more what happens in England.
It reflects on the Duma and the Russian army.
I don't want to have that responsibility that Kate and Roger are walking around that tennis court.
You all can live with that.

That of it is from England, during class can we agree this is cow pose and when the teacher says cow pose, kind of do as the group does.
That's the mental illness of the English.
Can you go to a different class where it's a different pose?

We're talking about the English and like the Navy SEALS or whatever. Group stuff. Group training stuff. Sometimes I'll do something that is group and I can tell, people are wanting to learn about this. I'm the worst than you all about this.
Right?
But, during the yoga class, if everyone else is doing Cow pose this way, do I have it in me to rebel and do a different variation?

"But he spent very little time in pretrial detention and was allowed to walk free in lieu of what authorities said was his cooperation with the investigation and a reimbursement to the state of around $24 million in illicitly obtained funds."

Because it's labor management stuff.

[The Russian Defense Ministry rejected claims made by the boss of Wagner Group Yevgeny Prigozhin that it had ordered strikes against his militias. The ministry said that the statements "do not correspond to reality," calling them a "provocation." "The Russian armed forces continue to carry out combat missions" in Ukraine, the ministry added. Russian mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin on Friday accused the Russian military of destroying his fighters, without explaining his accusation, and vowed to stop the "evil" of the military leadership. In a series of audio messages on his official Telegram channel, Prigozhin said the "evil" of the Russian military leadership "must be stopped," adding: "Those who destroyed our lads, who destroyed the lives of many tens of thousands of Russian soldiers, will be punished. I ask that no one offer resistance."]
This is the Turkish news.
Maybe the Russian army has German immigrants in leadership positions.
(June 24, 2023)

OK.
Usually, the city of Moscow.
The army there are probably German immigrants.
If Prigozhin is saying the military leadership in Moscow seems like right wingers.
I'm sure he's right.
The Bolsheviks, etc.
These were German communists and they moved the capital to Moscow.
Putin is 70 years old.
We joke that the White House has to keep diapers for Biden.
That Biden wore a diaper and a mask.
Why can't anyone else take over, given Putin's age?

I think the side of right is to suggest the military leadership in Moscow includes German immigrants.
Naryshkin also.
He's 68.
Why can't anyone take over for him?
To me it means that he's surrounded by German immigrants.
Which is what Prigozhin is saying.

[As the leader of a mercenary force who depicts himself as fighting many of the Russian military’s toughest battles in Ukraine, the 62-year-old Prigozhin has now moved into his most dangerous role yet: preaching open rebellion against his country’s military leadership. Prigozhin, owner of the Kremlin-allied Wagner Group, has escalated what have been months of scathing criticism of Russia’s conduct of the war by calling Friday for an armed uprising to oust the defense minister. Russian security services reacted immediately, opening a criminal investigation and urging Prigozhin’s arrest. In a sign of how seriously the Kremlin took Prigozhin’s threat, riot police and the National Guard scrambled to tighten security at key facilities in Moscow, including government agencies and transport infrastructure, Tass reported. Prigozhin, a onetime felon, hot-dog vendor and longtime associate of Putin, urged Russians to join his “march to justice.” Prigozhin and Putin go way back, with both born in Leningrad, what is now known as St. Petersburg. During the final years of the Soviet Union, Prigozhin served time in prison — 10 years by his own admission — although he does not say what it was for. Afterward, he owned a hot dog stand and then fancy restaurants that drew interest from Putin. In his first term, the Russian leader took then-French President Jacques Chirac to dine at one of them. “Vladimir Putin saw how I built a business out of a kiosk, he saw that I don’t mind serving to the esteemed guests because they were my guests,” Prigozhin recalled in an interview published in 2011. His businesses expanded significantly to catering and providing school lunches. In 2010, Putin helped open Prigozhin’s factory that was built on generous loans by a state bank. In Moscow alone, his company Concord won millions of dollars in contracts to provide meals at public schools. He also organised catering for Kremlin events for several years — earning him the nickname “Putin’s chef” — and has provided catering and utility services to the Russian military. In 2017, opposition figure and corruption fighter Alexei Navalny accused Prigozhin’s companies of breaking antitrust laws by bidding for some $387 million in Defense Ministry contracts. Prigozhin also owns the Wagner Group, a Kremlin-allied mercenary force that has come to play a central role in Putin’s projection of Russian influence in trouble spots around the world. The United States, European Union, United Nations and others say the mercenary force has involved itself in conflicts in countries across Africa in particular. Wagner fighters allegedly provide security for national leaders or warlords in exchange for lucrative payments, often including a share of gold or other natural resources. U.S. officials say Russia may also be using Wagner’s work in Africa to support its war in Ukraine. In Ukraine, Prigozhin’s mercenaries have become a major force in the war, fighting as counterparts to the Russian army in battles with Ukrainian forces. That includes Wagner fighters taking Bakhmut, the city where the bloodiest and longest battles have taken place. By last month, Wagner Group and Russian forces appeared to have largely won Bakhmut, a victory with strategically slight importance for Russia despite the cost in lives. The U.S. estimates that nearly half of the 20,000 Russian troops killed in Ukraine since December were Wagner fighters in Bakhmut. His soldiers-for-hire included inmates recruited from Russia’s prisons. As his forces fought and died en masse in Ukraine, Prigozhin raged against Russia’s military brass. In a video released by his team last month, Prigozhin stood next to rows bodies he said were those of Wagner fighters. He accused Russia’s regular military of incompetence and of starving his troops of the weapons and ammunition they needed to fight. “These are someone’s fathers and someone’s sons,” Prigozhin said then. “The scum that doesn’t give us ammunition will eat their guts in hell.” Prigozhin earlier gained more limited attention in the U.S., when he and a dozen other Russian nationals and three Russian companies were charged in the U.S. with operating a covert social media campaign aimed at fomenting discord ahead of Donald Trump’s 2016 election victory. They were indicted as part of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian election interference. The US Treasury Department has sanctioned Prigozhin and associates repeatedly in connection with both his alleged election interference and his leadership of the Wagner Group. After the 2018 indictment, the RIA Novosti news agency quoted Prigozhin as saying, in a clearly sarcastic remark: “Americans are very impressionable people; they see what they want to see. I treat them with great respect. I’m not at all upset that I’m on this list. If they want to see the devil, let them see him.” The Biden White House in that episode called him “a known bad actor,” and State Department spokesman Ned Price said Prigozhin’s “bold confession, if anything, appears to be just a manifestation of the impunity that crooks and cronies enjoy under President Putin and the Kremlin.”]

Henry Welles was born in New York City in 1956. We moved to Austin in the 1980s. Last year when I visited my dad asked me if I have ever been to Duke's Grocery. I have. He'd read about it in the newspaper. "Yes, I have been to Duke's Grocery."

"We will no longer notify anyone about anything, but for the issue of raising of lowering our combat alert and with an exception of [informing] NATO as we have commitments to it and we will stick to them in compliance with United Nations Security Council resolution 1244," he said in an address to the nation.

[Germany Recognized the Macedonian Language, Identity and Culture Last night, the German Bundestag voted on a resolution that unequivocally recognizes the Macedonian language, identity and culture, Thomas Hacker, an MP from the Free Democratic Party, told Deutsche Welle. The resolution was introduced by the parliamentary groups of the three parties in the governing coalition - the Social Democrats, the Greens and the Liberals. With this resolution, the Bundestag wants to encourage North Macedonia to put into practice the compromise with the European Union reached in the summer of 2022, Hacker explains. It is about the agreement on the inclusion of Bulgarians in the Constitution. "The accession of North Macedonia to the European Union is in the interest of Germany and the European Union," Thomas Hacker is convinced. He emphasizes that the implementation of the compromise does not threaten the Macedonian language, culture and identity. The deputy from the Liberals defines North Macedonia's readiness for Euro-Atlantic integration as unprecedented. "It serves as a model for the entire region," and "the citizens of the country deserve our recognition and great respect," he said. The accession process cannot continue in the same way, Hacker believes. "That is why we need to offer North Macedonia and the countries that are seriously considering EU membership intermediate steps. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's proposal to establish closer ties between the countries of the Western Balkans with a four-point plan is a step in the right direction," he added.]

[NATO will intervene? "We see indications; Troops have been sent in a Kosovo base" NATO is turning from a defense alliance into an interventionist alliance, which is dangerous, says Foreign Policy Spokesperson of the Alternative for Germany. Petr Bystron, who is also a member of the Bundestag, stated in an interview for Russia Today Balkan that the bombing of the FR Yugoslavia in 1999 was a violation of international law and a sin, as well as that this illegal war led to the violent secession of a part of the sovereign country, the former Yugoslavia. "Kosovo is an artificial creation, incapable of life," said the German MP. He added that back then, the Americans, as well as the German government of that time, promised to improve the situation by offering billions and increasing the military presence, but that 24 years later there is no improvement, and local conflicts are still there. "Now is the time for the German government to reconsider its approach," emphasizes Bystron. Speaking about the European Union's pressure on Serbia to adhere to the Franco-German plan and its role as a mediator in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, Bystron said that "Kosovo" should not join the EU under any circumstances, and that his party, AFD, oppose it. "The EU is putting incredible pressure on the Serbs and is trying to force them to conclude certain agreements with the Kosovo Albanians. But, regardless of this pressure, initially the signing of the agreement between Serbia and 'Kosovo' was considered a condition for the extension of the accession negotiations. But they signed nothing. Nevertheless, the EU strongly insists on expansion regardless of the absence of a signed document. And that is a completely wrong path," emphasizes Bystron. Whether KFOR and then NATO will intervene if there is an armed conflict, Bystron points out, is a very serious question and adds that we are already seeing some indications of it. "First of all, KFOR and NATO are already present there, and NATO soldiers have already been wounded in the conflict with those who protested. Secondly, we can compare this situation with the situation in Ukraine, with which the Secretary General of NATO declared that NATO should send its troops to that country. This only means that NATO is turning from a defensive alliance, as it once was, into an interventionist alliance, which is very dangerous," emphasizes Bystron. He notes that looking at the development of NATO over the last ten years, it seems that it can be used for interventions beyond its borders. Asked about the position of his country, Germany, in relation to issues concerning the Balkans, Bystron emphasized that the Germans are fulfilling the will of American interests in Europe. He recalled that the bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999 was the first time since World War II that Germany participated in military operations. He added that there is no reason why Germany would send its soldiers to Bosnia as part of EUFOR. As he emphasizes, it is necessary to understand the geopolitical context and that all this is in the interest of the United States. "In 1999, the USA launched a NATO military intervention. They wanted to build a military base in that region, and they succeeded. The second largest American base in Europe is located on 'Kosovo', while the first is located in Ramstein. That says a lot. "Germany is doing what America demands of it. It is acting as a flag bearer of the U.S. policy," Bystron pointed out. He noted that not all European countries act in this way, citing as an example EU members who did not recognize the so-called Kosovo, but also France, which, according to him, is skeptical about EU expansion.]

[Germany to Buy Israel's Iron Dome Air Defense System Germany will buy Israel's Iron Dome air defense system, Politico reported. The budget committee of the Bundestag approved the payment of the first tranche of 560 million euros for the purchase of the Israeli Arrow-3 air defense system. The government in Berlin intends to modernize its army through a 100 billion euro fund approved by Chancellor Olaf Scholz and the German parliament last year. Germany's spending on the Arrow-3 system, designed to intercept ballistic missiles, is expected to amount to 4 billion euros, are expected to amount to 4 billion euros. On Wednesday, the commission also approved about 950 million euros for the purchase of six German IRIS-T-SLM air defense systems. "With the purchase of the German IRIS-T SLM system and the Israeli Arrow system, we are making progress on two major projects for the Bundeswehr's special resources that will help build a protective umbrella over Germany," Carsten Klein, a lawmaker and committee member from The Free Democrats. The Arrow-3 system was developed and manufactured by Israeli Aerospace Industries in collaboration with the American aerospace giant Boeing. Klein adds that the combined air defense systems will provide a range of 2,400 km, in which case the German "Iron Dome" will also cover the territory of Poland. The Arrow-3 system has been in use in Israel since 2017 as part of the Iron Dome anti-missile shield. Berlin is aiming to reach a binding contract for the Arrow-3 system by the end of 2023, and the anti-missile shield could be operational by the end of 2025.]

MOSCOW, June 15. /TASS/. Canadian Minister Counselor Brian Ebel, who was summoned to Russia’s Foreign Ministry on Wednesday, was strongly protested over Ottawa’s intention to seize a Russian An-124 cargo plane, the ministry said in a statement on Thursday. The An-124 Ruslan cargo aircraft, owned by Russia’s Volga-Dnepr Airlines and chartered by the Canadian government, arrived in Toronto on February 27, 2022, carrying a cargo of Covid tests from China. The aircraft had landed two hours before Canada closed its airspace to Russian aircraft over the Ukraine crisis. Despite the fact, the aircraft was arrested and the crew were accommodated at a hotel. Later the crew flew back to Russia.

Vučić on the arrest of Kurti's special forces President Vučić spoke about the latest information from Kosovo and Metohija, after the arrest of members of the Kosovo police on the territory of Serbia. The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, spoke about the latest information from Kosovo and Metohija, after the arrest of members of the Kosovo police on the territory of Serbia. He also spoke about the ban on the import of Serbian goods to Kosovo and Metohija. "We are at the crossroads of whether we will continue to have peace or not. There is one man who wants to provoke war at any cost. I have always tried to look for the possibility of compromises with us. I am afraid that we have crossed the Rubicon and it will be very difficult to return to normality, for which Serbia will always do its best to make that happen. What actually happened?", Vučić began. "We have had a total of six Serbs shot since the beginning of the year. Under Kurti's rule, not a single Albanian was shot anywhere. Nowhere, anywhere, in the territory of central Serbia did the Serbian police officers shoot any Albanians. This only happens to Serbs. And when someone talks about both sides in the international community, it is our duty to always point out to them what is really happening, and what it is, who is responsible for all of this. Don't forget that the whole crisis starts the moment someone makes a decision to go to the elections, for which they knew that they would be completely illegitimate, with a voter turnout of 3.4 percent in the entire north. And it is not enough for them that they were allowed to, say, in a Bosniak village in northern Mitrovica, appoint someone of their own, who does not represent anyone." Meeting with representatives of Quint countries Vučić then spoke about the meeting with Quint representatives.

"They just asked us to further de-escalate the situation. We ended that meeting. I had a very fair conversation with the NATO commander in Kosovo, Mr. Ristuccia. It is not easy to talk to him. He feels hurt because of the numerous injuries of his soldiers in Zvečan. He is a serious and responsible soldier. But he heard our arguments. I showed him the video, here it is, for you to see. He said: 'I know that video where Dušan Obrenović and Radaš Petrović are seen to have done nothing.' They are still in detention and their detention was extended yesterday or today. Do you know why it was extended? Because they were beaten, especially Dušan Obrenović." "NATO says the man didn't do anything. Do you understand me? The man was arrested because of this. You all have to understand that. So, in what terror, in what madness are the Serbs living in Kosovo and Metohija. Okay, and when the KFOR general tells you that we know about that video, we don't, they all know it. You know what they tell you? They tell you, and we, through EULEX, are now monitoring it. For God's sake, don't monitor it anymore. You didn't write to me that you would monitor it through EULEX, but I guaranteed our people that they must have confidence in you and in us, and that you don't lie to me." Three armed members of Kosovo special forces were arrested today in the territory of central Serbia in an operation by the Special Units of the Serbian Police. "We have the right under Resolution 1244" "I received information around one o'clock that we caught three people, that our members of special anti-terrorist units caught them there." "First, let the people of Serbia know, since the people in the international community know it, the people from KFOR know. These people have nothing to look for in the area of Tresava, Batnik, without the approval of KFOR. They have nothing to look for, especially not with a long barrels. My first question, do you want to kill people with long barrels? Even if such a thing exists. My second question, did you inform the KFOR units that you were there? I will tell you that we have evidence, we have recorded conversations, we have video and audio material that proves that KFOR was not informed about all this." "We arrested them. Not within a hundred meters. Because we have no right to enter according to Resolution 1244 and the Kumanovo Agreement, without NATO approval. And we respect that. I guarantee that not a single soldier of the Serbian Army and now you will see evidence, and a policeman, whether a member of the gendarmerie, special anti-terrorist units, did not cross the administrative line or as the latter would say, the border. For us, it is only the administrative line. No one. We arrest them 1.8 kilometers away from the administrative line." "It is very far from Tresova Banja, where they left their car. At the same time, Kurti says 300 meters from the line. And what are you doing 300 meters from the line without notifying KFOR? And who gave you that right? And that when you say 'it's 300 meters', then we all know it's at least 300 meters on the other side. That's how far they went. And we arrest them 1.8 km away. They say, the Serbian army. Well, we have evidence, since KFOR knows the movements of the Serbian army. Now I will reveal to them part of our positions, since we are going to change them. Our army is stationed for the most part in the area, I am not saying where exactly, in the area of the town of Rudnica. Which is 5.1 km skyway away from the point where people were arrested. By air. But they need 19.8 km because you have to go through Raška because of the Ibar that intersects it." "Our army is 20 km away from the place where it happened" "So, our army was essentially 20 km away from the place where it happened. So much for the nonsense that Kurti is talking about that our army participated in something like that. It's easy for KFOR to check it and it's easy for everyone to see it. Therefore, neither the army nor the police, because you have satellite images, so you can see it," he explained.

"You cannot see that you are invading the territory of a sovereign country with such weapons. An investigation is being conducted. We are ready to provide all the data, all the evidence. And secondly, that you know the difference between a state and a quasi-state. We are a serious country and we treat these people in a serious way," he added. "You get the answer to all that, it's Serbia, be careful, they are not the ones who entered the territory of central Serbia, but we are terrorists because we allegedly kidnapped them. No one crossed, not even a millimeter came close to the administrative line. And that tells you that someone literally wants to provoke conflicts at any cost. We have no problem with everyone showing us their satellite images, so that everything can be clearly seen whether our units crossed that line or not, police, how far they are, but KFOR already knows that. The people from KFOR already know that. And what do you expect next? Whether they will say it or not? That is another matter. But I know that they know. Today I met with the ambassadors of Quint and the ambassador of the European Union and with KFOR commander. I have another meeting in the morning." "Kurti knew that secret negotiations were taking place in Brussels" "Kurti knew that secret negotiations were taking place in Brussels this morning. He also wanted to provoke this morning. He wanted us to react badly and Serbia would be punished at the same second. He did all this because of that. Because he wants war and wants Serbia to be punished for something. Here's all the maps so you can see exactly where they were arrested, in what way, what's the distance, it's exactly measured 1.14 miles, 1,83 kilometers from the administrative line and so on. He provokes all the time because he wants war. Do you understand that you make the decision to say that we will not receive goods from Serbia as they say or from central Serbia as we say?" explained Vučić . "I tell you, it's easiest for me to talk to their army. It's easiest for me to talk to the people of KFOR. And that conversation wasn't sweet at all. It was very difficult. But it's easiest for me to talk to them because you talk to them facts," he emphasized. "They were expecting someone they were supposed to liquidate" "Two key messages. I let them know that we did not participate in the escalation, on the contrary. Let us try to de-escalate in every way, to talk about it with KFOR, to shelter part of our forces in Vranje, Kraljevo, Niš, in every way, so that nobody feels threatened. Let's do it every time. But you can't when you have people who just want to make an incident every day. Every day. KFOR says don't bring that minister to Leposavic, they force him through there from the direction of Bajgora, Podujevo and I don't know which other places. To come there just to make incidents in Leposavic itself. They do the same in Zubin Potok, and who will live in Zubin Potok, there is not a single Albanian, go to Čabra, the Albanian place where you got those 300 votes. But they won't. They want to provoke. They want conflicts. Why should you arrest Lune?" "And why did you bring these three people to the alternative crossing? To supposedly protect them for something? That's the job of KFOR. We have several doubts why they are doing it. And that's why the investigation is needed and we will get to it. Clearly, they were then expecting someone they were supposed to liquidate," he stressed. "Today, the Ministry of Interior said in the first statement that it is a terrorist act. Certainly, when someone invades your territory with such a weapon, the territory controlled by your armed forces, you certainly have to look at it that way first of all. You know that they accuse the Serbs of a terrorist act when they throw a stone at them. And let them attack you with automatic rifles and pistols. Just keep that in mind. And it's possible that they had some more serious plans because we found some lists of Serbs. And that's what we're talking about, what I was talking about, so that they had certain information and that they were waiting for some people, whether because of liquidation or because of potential arrest, it is completely irrelevant. And it is absolutely unacceptable. And we have to pay attention and say that these people have nothing to do in the north of Kosovo and Metohija." In the end, Vučić emphasized that we must be united and fight, and he is convinced that Serbs in Kosovo are fighting even though they are under great pressure. "We have to endure all this terror," he concluded.

"Kazakh president to skip 'Russian Davos'" "ASTANA, June 9 (Reuters) - Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev will not attend the annual economic forum in Russia's St Petersburg next week, the government said on Friday, after refusing to toe the Kremlin's line over the Russian invasion of Ukraine at last year's event. The Kazakh government said only two officials will represent the Central Asian nation at this year's forum. Until its invasion of Ukraine, Russia regularly hosted world leaders and business titans at the forum, but Western officials and business figures now shun it, and last year Tokayev stole the limelight by rejecting the Kremlin claims on Ukraine. Sharing the stage with Russian President Putin - who will address the forum this year as well - Tokayev said then that Kazakhstan would not recognise the independence of pro-Russian statelets in eastern Ukraine or other ex-Soviet republics. His comments raised eyebrows because Kazakhstan, which shares the world's longest continuous land border with Russia, has for decades been a member of Moscow-led security and trade blocs, and calls Russia its strategic partner. Asked who would attend the conference this year, a Kazakh government spokeswoman said only Deputy Prime Minister Roman Sklyar and Deputy Economy Minister Timur Zhaksylykov would go. Tokayev's office declined to comment on the reasons why he was not attending."
This is an easy one.

It might be a form of battle fatigue. How they are grown men and what they want these shifts to look like. That happens in the army a lot. Men kind of just want to sit and don't want to keep fighting.

[Approached by 3 Russian Warships, British Deployed Ships and Fighter Jets LONDON – Three warship Russia crosses waters near England, Friday (9/6/2023). The London military rushed to deploy destroyers and fighter jets to monitor the trio of Moscow ships. The three Moscow warships are the guided-missile frigate Admiral Grigorovich and two Stereguschiy II class corvettes; Soobrazitelny and Stoikiy. The Portsmouth-based destroyer HMS Defender was tasked with reconnaissance of the three Moscow warships while they were near British territory. HMS Defender is assisted by Wildcat helicopters from the Royal Navy’s 815th Air Squadron. Typhoon fighter jets and P-8A Poseidon aircraft from RAF Lossiemouth are also working with HMS Defender on a similar mission. “HMS Defender is the fleet’s rapid reaction escort, which means we are prepared to respond to any threat to the safety or security of the nation,” said HMS Defender Commander Peter Evans in a press statement. “Guarding ships through British waters is a routine activity of the Royal Navy and demonstrates our commitment to the vital sea lanes on which Britain relies,” he said. “Defender and his crew have been involved in operations for the last three years, spanning four major oceans and most of the world’s oceans—so we are successful on missions like this one.” The battleships HMS Portland, HMS Montrose, HMS Severn, HMS Mersey, HMS Northumberland and HMS Kent all participated in similar operations to monitor Russian ships in the last month, including two Udaloy-class destroyers, Admiral Levchenko and Vice-Admiral Kulakov. British warships are regularly deployed on such missions, protecting waters close to Britain.

Royal Navy and Royal Air Force deployed to shadow Russian warships British aircraft and naval vessels were deployed to monitor and shadow a Russian task group which sailed close to the British Isles. The Royal Navy used HMS Defender to monitor the three-strong group of warships, while the Royal Air Force (RAF) deployed aircraft to track the Russian forces. A Poseidon MRA1 (P-8A), a multi-role maritime patrol aircraft, and Typhoons from RAF Lossiemouth were sent to assist in shadowing the group. Royal Navy shadows Russian warships through English Channel HMS Mersey shadows Russian tanker through English Channel Royal Navy shadows Russian warship from Baltic to Britain In a separate incident on 8 June, RAF Typhoons deployed to Estonia were scrambled to intercept Russian aircraft that flew near Nato and Swedish air space. HMS Defender's Commanding Officer, Commander Peter Evans said: "HMS Defender is the fleet's quick reaction escort, which means we're ready to respond to any threats to the nation's safety or security.

Li Qiang said that under the strategic guidance and personal commitment of President Xi Jinping and President Emomali Rahmon, China-Tajikistan relations have realized leapfrog development in recent years. China is ready to further synergize development strategies with Tajikistan, deepen mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation, and share new opportunities brought by Chinese modernization with Tajikistan, to continuously make the pie of China-Tajikistan cooperation bigger and more substantive and deliver more tangible benefits to the two peoples. Li Qiang pointed out that the Belt and Road cooperation between China and Tajikistan has yielded fruitful results. The two sides need to further strengthen pragmatic cooperation with focus on high-quality Belt and Road cooperation, continuously optimize the trade structure, and improve the level of trade facilitation. China welcomes more exports from Tajikistan and hopes that Tajikistan will further improve its business environment and earnestly protect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese investors. The two sides need to deepen mutually beneficial cooperation in agriculture, industrial parks, infrastructure and other fields, continuously enhance connectivity, and strengthen exchanges in such fields as culture, education, medical care and sister cities programs. Li Qiang stressed that the China-Central Asia Summit will inject new impetus into the overall cooperation between China and Central Asia, and bring new opportunities for deepening China-Tajikistan cooperation. Li Qiang expressed the hope that Tajikistan will continue to play an active role in promoting the new and great development of China-Central Asia cooperation. Emomali Rahmon said that Tajikistan and China are good neighbors, good friends and good examples of solidarity and mutual assistance for common development. Over the past decade, bilateral relations have reached a new height and bilateral cooperation has yielded fruitful results. Tajikistan is ready to learn from China's experience, absorb China's technology, deepen bilateral exchanges and cooperation with China in such areas as production capacity, energy, agriculture, water conservancy, connectivity and culture, and advance Belt and Road cooperation to bring bilateral relations to a new level."

[Member States agreed on "Fair Distribution" of Refugees and Migrants in the EU European Union countries have reached a long-delayed agreement on a fair distribution of refugees and migrants. The decision was reached last night in Luxembourg by interior ministers. The reform is in two directions - on the one hand with the countries under pressure, and on the other - an accelerated procedure for some of the migrants' applications. On point one, each country would have to accept a proportional number of asylum seekers. If it refuses, it will have to pay compensation into a fund managed by the union, which will help the countries most under migration pressure. The amount of 20,000 euros per rejected candidate was discussed. Point two of the agreement introduces an accelerated procedure - up to 12 weeks - for processing applications in centers located at the borders. But this measure will apply to applicants who statistically have the least chance of being granted refugee status. Such are citizens of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Senegal, Bangladesh and Pakistan."]

[GPS has changed the way we get around the globe. But if you command a warship, you must think about what you would do if an adversary destroyed or compromised your GPS system. The Royal Navy and Imperial College London think a quantum navigation system might be the answer. Of course, Heisenberg says you can't know your speed and position simultaneously. But at the real-world level, you can apparently get close enough. The quantum sensors in question are essentially accelerometers. Unlike conventional accelerometers, though, these devices use ultracold atoms to make very precise measurements using a laser optical ruler, which means they do not drift as rapidly as, say, the accelerometer in your phone. Navigating with accelerometers is well understood, but the issue is how often you have to correct your computed position with an actual reference due to drift and other error accumulation. You can see a Sky News report on the trial below.The tests were done in a rapid prototyping pod carried onboard XV Patrick Blackett, a fitting name for an experimental ship since Lord Blackett was a Nobel laureate and head of the physics department at Imperial College for a decade ending in 1963.The underlying tech came out of the university back in 2018, but making it work in a real-world environment onboard a ship is another matter. You probably won't have the cryonics and lasers needed for such a quantum compass anytime soon in your smartphone, but the tech could have civilian applications for larger vehicles.]

Escobar emphasized that "Kosovo must now move as a matter of urgency", and indicated that the establishment of the CSM is an international, legal, undertaken obligation. "It does not depend on him.

[Turkey begins deploying special operations battalion to Kosovo at NATO's request The Ministry of Defense of the Republic announced the deployment of a commandos battalion of the 65th mechanized infantry brigade in this region ANKARA, June 4. /TASS/. Turkey has begun to deploy a special operations battalion to Kosovo at NATO's request, Turkey's defense ministry said on Sunday. "A commandos battalion of the 65th mechanized infantry brigade <...> is being deployed to Kosovo," it said. The ministry said earlier that this unit would be billeted at the Sultan Murat barracks on June 4-5. The situation in the Leposavic, Zubin Potok, and Zvecan municipalities in northern Kosovo and Metohija escalated on May 26 after Kosovo law enforcement officers tried to seize local administration buildings to make it possible for the new mayors of these municipalities, who were elected despite nearly the entire Serb population boycotting the elections, take their offices. On May 29, the NATO-led international security force in Kosovo (KFOR) cordoned off the administrative buildings, clashing with the protesters. According to Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, fifty-two Serbs sought medical assistance in Kosovska Mitrovica. Three of them were badly wounded. Serbian Defense Minister Milos Vucevic said on May 29 that the Serbian army had been put on high alert following the escalation in Kosovo and Metohija and that army units had been deployed along the administrative border with Kosovo.]

[Bulgaria might File a Claim against Gazprom "The probability of Gazprom requesting and winning an arbitration case against Bulgaria has been minimized. We are thinking in the direction of filing claims against 'Gazprom'", acting Minister of Energy Rosen Hristov said on the National Television regarding the suspension of natural gas deliveries from Russia in 2022. "What is happening in other countries regarding the legal case is being carefully monitored and preparations are being made to move in this direction", he said. According to him, a lot of analysis must be done and a strong position must be built in order to have a chance to win. "Much work is planned with international law firms with a lot of experience in the field, who are currently monitoring and preparing a position for Bulgaria. I believe that within a month or two we will have a prepared position so that we can start arbitration", explained the minister. He added that it is too early to say what the value of Bulgaria's claim will be. Rosen Hristov stated that he is not worried about a possible revision in the Ministry of Energy by a regular government. "Not only am I not worried, I am even proud of what I have achieved, especially in such a short period of time. I believe that such a revision will be made so as to validate what I am saying. The results are obvious", added the minister, quoted by BTA.]

[UK Royal Navy Planning Mojave Carrier Flight Trials LONDON—General Atomics has secured a £1.5 million ($1.9 million) contract that could lead to its Mojave short-take-off and landing uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) performing a flight from the UK’s HMS Prince of Wales aircraft carrier. The U.S. OEM secured the single-source Project Mojave contract from the UK defense ministry to “demonstrate a threshold capability for a Short Take off and Landing Uncrewed Air Vehicle.” Details of the contract emerged in a transparency notice issued by the department on May 20 to advise of the award’s single-source nature. The work is expected to involve flight trials of the Mojave platform, a derivative of the company’s MQ-1C Gray Eagle platform designed for STOL operations from unprepared strips from the aircraft carrier later this year once repair work on the warship has been completed. The trials and experiments are expected to inform the Royal Navy’s ongoing Future Maritime Aviation Force efforts, which aim to bring more UAS platforms onboard the Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers to support the crewed F-35 and rotary-wing fleets operating onboard. General Atomics began flight testing the Mojave UAS in July 2021 to prove the validity of a long-endurance UAS that is capable of either STOL operations on a surveillance mission or taking off with up to 16 Lockheed Martin AGM-114 Hellfire missiles on a strike mission. Although produced on MQ-1C tooling, the Mojave is a different aircraft, featuring a 67% leap in payload capacity over the extended-range Gray Eagle. The additional payload is generated by shifting propulsion to a Rolls-Royce M250 turboshaft engine, which doubles the power, and the addition of a dihedral, high-lift wing design that includes leading-edge slats and double-slotted flaps. The aircraft also features strengthened landing gear and flotation tires to operate on landing strips instead of runways. The company said when the Mojave was unveiled that simulations suggested it could operate from carrier decks. The Mojave development aircraft was displayed on the HMS Queen Elizabeth last year when it arrived in New York for the Atlantic Future Forum. Earlier this month, General Atomics revealed it was proposing equipping the MQ-9B platform with a folding wing developed from the Mojave platform, potentially enabling the UK’s future MQ-9B Protector fleet to be adapted for carrier operations.]

[Upgraded Royal Navy aircraft carriers could soon launch drones Navy outlines its ‘future maritime vision’ by exploring new ways of sending unmanned aircraft off the ships’ flight The Royal Navy plans to adapt aircraft carriers to launch drones as part of its “future maritime vision”. The Navy confirmed it was looking at how it can introduce a new way of sending aircraft off the flight decks of both aircraft carriers, rather than relying on the ramp for jets to take off. The new aircraft launch and recovery systems would “open up” the flight deck to a broader range of aircrafts and drones. The Telegraph understands that the reason to explore the new ramp is “part of the Navy’s future maritime vision” that shows a shift away from relying on fighter jets. Currently, both HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales are fitted for F-35s. However, a Navy source explained that the “challenge is to get an aeroplane in the sky”, which is where the aircraft’s ramp is used. Because of the aircraft’s weight when loaded with ordinance, it makes landing vertically too difficult there as it is too heavy. So they drop their ordinance before they land, which is wasteful. “In future, drones will move heavy items and that’s what we are moving towards,” they said. Colonel Phil Kelly, the head of carrier strike and maritime aviation within the Royal Navy’s Develop Directorate, said: “We are looking to move from short take-off and landing, then to short take-off but arrested recovery, and then to [catapult assisted] take-off but arrested recovery. “We are looking at a demonstrable progression that spreads out the financial cost and incrementally improves capability.” The first step would be to increase the available length for the unassisted launch of drones. Col Kelly added: “This November, we will [launch] a Mojave aircraft off the angle of the flight deck off the US east coast. “This aircraft can take off in 300ft of runway so enough for the trial [but] we have already undertaken design work to add sponsons and make a full run of 700ft available.” He said that a final step would be to add catapults that “would allow us to operate the heaviest aircraft you can imagine”. Currently, HMS Queen Elizabeth’s flight deck has a 12.5 degree ski-ramp fitted forward, which is specifically designed for an F-35. Joint testing with the US The retrofit arrestor gear and assisted launch equipment will be part of a broader Future Maritime Aviation Force vision, a multi-strand programme exploring the widespread fielding of uncrewed aviation across the surface fleet, with a specific focus on future carrier aviation. The Navy source added that it was evolving and “recognising that drones don’t need to take off the ramp”. They said: “The future isn’t just F-35s, and so the aircraft carriers need to look for new capabilities in partnership with that. It will be more like a traditional aeroplane flying on a runway.” They added that some initiatives that are being tested with the US are proving jets can get a rolling landing on the carriers, “not vertically”. “If the Navy can do it with F-35s, then we don’t just have to use F-35s, we could use other American aircrafts like F-18s,” they said.]

This is me talking about President Vucic and the meeting in Moldova. 6-2-23

Vučić from Chişinău: "Serbia is an independent country that makes its own decisions" Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić spoke from the capital of Moldova, Chişinău: ''I shake hands with a man who does not recognize the independence of Kosovo''. Pristina and Belgrade are the main topic of the meeting in the Moldovan capital. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, as well as Vjosa Osmani spoke at the meeting. The President said from Chisinau that the situation in Kosovo and Metohija became the main topic of the summit, in addition to the situation in Ukraine. "Prishtina refused to meet with the Serbian delegation, although we always want a conversation. It seems to me that it is increasingly clear who is responsible for the problems in Kosovo," said Vučić. Vučić points out that he had a good conversation with Polish President Andrzej Duda, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Austrian Prime Minister, representatives of Montenegro and North Macedonia. "I also spoke with the Italian Prime Minister, I spoke for a long time with the Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte. I spoke with many important people, and everyone's main topic, along with energy and economic progress, is the situation in Kosovo and Metohija," said Vučić. He says that countries from the Open Balkans initiative will seek greater access to EU funds. "There is a big difference, I understand that we are not an EU country, but that difference must be reduced, so that we can reach those countries faster. It is an important topic for the summit in June. What I would say is very important is that I sent an invitation to all countries, and the EU leadership, and EC representatives, that after Granada and London, one of the next two meetings should be held in Belgrade. That would probably be the biggest summit and a kind of crown of our efforts," said Vučić and added: "I expect to see Scholtz and Macron here, and in Belgrade in the next month we will have countless visits, Morawiecki, the Benelux troika, the Slovenian president... there will be plenty of them, I also expect a new meeting of the Open Balkans, we will have to work even harder to preserve the interests of Serbia". President Vučić pointed out that he spoke briefly with Volodymyr Zelensky and added that Ukraine did not recognize the independence of Kosovo and Metohija. "We had a fair conversation, but the decision on sanctions is made by the citizens of Serbia, through their leadership, and we made our decision in March 2022, and gave our position. And you can never change your position with one conversation. Serbia has its own policy, Serbia is an independent country, and Serbia respects its interests," said Vučić. Vučić did not say whether Zelensky objected to the principled policy of Serbia regarding the introduction of sanctions against Russia. "You always ask the question as if we have to justify ourselves to someone. Why, because we conduct our policy in the interest of our country? We will continue to do so," said Vučić. He also answered the German journalist that this summit is important because of many issues, but also because of the situation in Kosovo and Metohija. "In an hour or two I will have a big meeting with Scholtz, Macron and Borrell. We will do everything we can to de-escalate the situation. We are working to calm the situation and avoid provocations in the future," said Vučić. The president says he can't talk about a "roadmap" because the other side always disrupts all plans. President Vučić also said that he wanted to talk to Vjosa Osmani, but that she refused. "We want talks, I wanted to talk with Vjosa Osmani, but she refused. What's wrong with dialogue, compromise? We're not surprised by that. It's about the stability and future of the whole of Europe, not just our region," Vučić said. Vučić asked if in the history of elections in the world there was any election that was legitimate and democratic, and that the turnout was 3 percent. "Then they caused tensions, and they insist on implementing these fake elections. Everyone insists on it, not only us. It's a shame for European democracy, not only for us but for everyone. Everyone understood what was happening," said Vučić. The president says he spoke separately with Macron and Scholz, and that a big meeting will follow soon. He then told foreign journalists that he had discussed the territorial integrity of Serbia and Ukraine with Zelensky. "I cannot reveal more about it," Vucic said. The President pointed out, about the situation in Kosovo and Metohija, that it is not a matter of pressure but of a solution. "Imagine, now they jumped that I spoke with Zelensky. So what, if I don't meet with a man who doesn't recognize the Republic of Kosovo. Everyone wants Serbia to act extremist, without recognizing its interests. If I am the only one to defend our interests, I will be the only one to do that. Shouldn't I extend my hand to a man who doesn't recognize Kosovo?" he said. Vučić said that tomorrow is the parliamentary session in Priština, in order to emphasize their anti-Serb position even more strongly. "Today they had a meeting in Mitrovica, a senseless and stupid meeting, I don't understand why they are doing it. Maybe they think they are doing well in the international community. I will see Scholtz and Macron here today, and I expect Mateusz Morawiecki in Belgrade soon. I also expect the trio Benelux in Belgrade, the Indian president, the Slovenian president. In the next month, we will have countless visits to Belgrade, there will be quite a few of them," said the president. He points out that we will have to work much harder and harder for the interests of Serbia. "I am waiting for an important meeting, so then I will talk about the expectations of the great powers," said Vučić. The president told foreign journalists that the real question is how to de-escalate the situation. "That is number one, I will talk about it with Macron and Scholz. The second issue is how to avoid provocations in the future. And number three is the formation of the CSM, which was agreed upon 10 years ago, but has not been implemented. It is very simple, and I think that we all agree on that. People now have a real picture of what is happening in the Balkans, regardless of who recognized and who did not recognize Kosovo and Metohija. We were always labeled as the culprits, but I think now everyone sees that things are not that simple," he said. Vučić points out that he does not want to talk about time frames, because it is necessary to find a long-term solution. "We don't need good wishes, but for people in the Balkans to understand that compromise is not a bad word. Everyone is radicalized, even in your countries. We must find compromise solutions," said the president. He says that the countries of the Western Balkans have asked for more energy aid, but he is not sure that it will happen. "We have money and reserves, citizens do not need to worry. If things remain like this, we will not need a new electricity price increase, which was agreed with the IMF. We will not allow that we create an opportunity for others to attract investors due to lower energy prices This is what gives Serbia an advantage over all others in the Balkans," President Vučić concluded his address.

Here in Washington, DC sometimes our cell phones stop working briefly.
This particular technology I'm not convinced will work to solve the problem of signal disruptions on the ships.
I might be opposed to these tests.

"The UK Royal Navy (RN) has announced its collaboration with the Imperial College London to test and experiment navigation systems for naval vessels. [...] Working of this sensor is different from conventional navigation systems that mainly depend on global satellite systems, including GPS, which leverages signals via satellites orbiting the earth." "Many navigation systems today rely on global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), such as GPS, which uses signals from satellites orbiting the Earth. However, GPS navigation is not always accessible, obstacles like tall buildings can easily block the satellite signals, and they are also susceptible to jamming, imitation, or denial, thereby preventing accurate navigation. It has been estimated that a single day of satellite service denial would incur a cost of 1 billion pound to the UK."

OK, this one is about the Royal Navy.
It's about GPS which means global positioning systems.
I guess they like don't like the satellites to position the ships.
Because the signals get fouled up.
It says even tall buildings can foul up the GPS.
And then navigation on the ships gets fouled up.
Even near a city or a tall building, it's not accurate enough about the navigation.
It cuts out or something.
They are testing a different kind of sensor.
That doesn't use satellites orbiting the earth.

What do I think about this?
I wonder about different solutions to the problem.
If the signals are being jammed.
Conceptually, if there is a problem how to solve it.
Is this the best solution if the ships are losing the signal?

This is me talking about Albin Kurti. 6-1-23

I think Kurti is guilty of ignoring elections standards stuff. The voter turnout was so low, it seems crazy he expected the winners to show up to work like normal.

[Washington is furious with Pristina: "You will bear the consequences" The US Ambassador in Belgrade, Christopher Hill, said that Pristina will bear the consequences because it did not listen to the advice of the United States. Hill added that this will affect relations with Washington, but that he is not familiar with all the details either. He told reporters in Belgrade and added that progress must be made in the normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina, the formation of the CSM and the continuation of the dialogue. "Our Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has made it clear that he opposes any moves Kurti has made that are contrary to all the advice we've been giving and Blinken has said there will be consequences. We must try not to lose our compass and direction, and it is the formation of the CSM, the normalization of relations. It is necessary for the Balkan region to be reconciled and to continue in the direction of the EU and Euro-Atlantic integrations," Hill said. He added that the previous days were very difficult in many ways, and that United States of America regretted all the attacks on KFOR and NATO soldiers and it should not happen again.]

This is from the Serbian news.
Notice the State Department is blaming Kurti.
- He seems to insist that the election results from April 23 are upheld.
- The elections had a low turnout and Serbians weren't on the ballots.
- It seemed like at the time the election results should have been thrown out.
- But he went ahead with them anyway.
- And these people showed up to work in the city buildings.
- As though everyone agreed the election had been legitimate.
- Kurti seemed to want to uphold, not acceptable elections.

According to him, the sides will discuss "a coalition of fighters, a coalition of Patriots, the EU, NATO, [Zelensky's] peace formula." Zelensky arrived in Odessa on Wednesday evening. The distance between the Ukrainian town and the Moldovan capital is 195 kilometers. The European Political Community was created by the European Union on the initiative of French President Emmanuel Macron. This platform is intended for political coordination of European countries across the continent and a closer dialogue with partners outside the EU, including Kiev and Chisinau.]

[NATO could start a war in Serbia because of the failure in Ukraine? The United States of America could start a war in the Balkans in order to destabilize the situation in Europe, writes the newspaper "Global Times". "Since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict did not bring the desired effect for the US, Washington must create a new war on the European continent," Chinese military expert Song Zhongping believes. According to him, the United States of America hopes to destroy the European economy and increase the European Union's dependence on the United States. At the same time, the expert adds that Serbia's sovereignty and national security are not NATO's priority. "However, since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has taken away a lot of energy and resources from the United States of America, they will probably consider the deepening of the rift between Serbia and Kosovo as an opportunity that they could take advantage of," the expert said. NATO, on the one hand, is calling for calming the tension, and on the other hand, it is increasing its military presence. NATO seems to be buying time to arm Kosovo. It's clear from past wars that the US is pretty good at pretending to be fair in stopping fighting while helping one side, buying time for those it supports by calling for a ceasefire. The promises of NATO and other Western countries about the protection of Serbs in Kosovo simply cannot be fulfilled. An article in the "Financial Times" states that the West's attempt to heal the division between Serbia and Kosovo is doomed to failure. The ultimate goal of the White House is for both Europe and Russia to suffer losses, which would allow Washington to maintain its hegemony, the expert concluded.]

[Medvedev says British officials can be viewed as Russia's legitimate military targets Earlier, Great Britain's top diplomat justified the drone attacks on Moscow, saying that Ukraine had the right to attack targets on Russian territory for self-defense MOSCOW, May 31. /TASS/. London is, in fact, waging an undeclared war on Moscow, which means that any British official can be viewed as a legitimate military target, the deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, said on Wednesday. "Today, Great Britain is acting as an ally of Ukraine, by providing it with equipment and personnel as military assistance, that is de facto waging an undeclared war against Russia. Therefore, any of its [the UK's] officials, both military and civilian ones, who are making a contribution to the war effort, can be viewed as a legitimate military target," Medvedev wrote on Twitter, commenting on a remark by British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly . On Tuesday, Great Britain's top diplomat justified the drone attacks on Moscow, saying that Ukraine had the right to attack targets on Russian territory for self-defense. "Foolish officials in the UK, our eternal enemy, should remember that under universally recognized international law governing the conduct of war in modern conditions, including the Hague and Geneva Conventions with their additional protocols, their situation can also be qualified as being at war," the Russian politician warned.]

[BELGRADE, May 31. /TASS/. The authorities of the unrecognized Kosovo are trying to occupy the north of Kosovo and Metohija, Serbian Defense Minister Milos Vucevic said on Wednesday. "The security situation is extremely difficult due to Pristina's unilateral, illegal, illegitimate decisions, and, above all, [due to the attempt], let's call it as it is <...>, to occupy the north of Kosovo and Metohija by the Albanian administration of Pristina," Vucevic said. The top military official recalled that Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic had repeatedly warned the international and the Serbian communities that Pristina's unilateral actions may lead to the worst-case scenario, and "unfortunately, this is what has happened." Vucevic pointed out that the path of Prime Minister of the unrecognized republic of Kosovo Albin Kurti "leads to escalation, conflicts, injuries, shootings and everything we've seen." The situation in the Leposavic, Zubin Potok, and Zvecan municipalities in northern Kosovo and Metohija escalated on May 26 after Kosovo law enforcement officers tried to seize local administration buildings to make it possible for the new mayors of these municipalities, who were elected despite nearly the entire Serb population boycotting the elections, take their offices. On May 29, the NATO-led international security force in Kosovo (KFOR) cordoned off the administrative buildings, clashing with the protesters. According to Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, fifty-two Serbs sought medical assistance in Kosovska Mitrovica. Three of them were badly wounded. The KFOR said that forty of its troops - servicemen from the Italian and Hungarian contingents - were wounded. Serbian Defense Minister Milos Vucevic said on Monday that the Serbian army had been put on high alert following the escalation in Kosovo and Metohija and that army units had been deployed along the administrative border with Kosovo.]

At a news conference in the northern Swedish city, Lulea Blinken noted that Sweden had taken remarkable steps in response to security concerns raised by NATO member Turkey and had repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the alliance. "We think now is the time and there is no reason not to move forward," the secretary of state said. He rejected the suggestion that Turkey's agreement to Sweden joining the alliance could be linked to the sale of F-16 fighter jets to Ankara, although Joe Biden hinted at such a link. Earlier in the day, Turkey called on Sweden to prosecute those responsible for projecting the flag of a banned group onto the Swedish parliament building on the day Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan won a runoff in the presidential election.]

He said this after the meeting of the ambassadors of the Quinte countries with the Prime Minister of Pristina's temporary institutions, Aljbin Kurti, and added that the US recommendation is that mayors do not work from municipal buildings, but from other buildings. Hovenier, however, did not say whether Kurti agreed with the recommendation, saying it was not his place to speak. "The US believes, and I am talking about my colleagues, that it is not necessary for elected presidents in the North to go to work every day. In fact, in the short term, we recommend that this not happen," said Hovenier, Reporters report. He said that there is agreement that the situation should be de-escalated, "but he does not know if he can say that there is agreement on how to achieve that de-escalation".]

BRUSSELS, May 29. /TASS/. NATO confirms that several KFOR servicemen were injured in Kosovo, claims that "unprovoked attacks" took place and demands that violence "stops immediately." "NATO strongly condemns the unprovoked attacks against KFOR troops in northern Kosovo, which have led to a number of them being injured. Such attacks are totally unacceptable. Violence must stop immediately," the alliance said in its statement published Monday evening. "We call on all sides to refrain from actions that further inflame tensions, and to engage in dialogue. KFOR will take all necessary actions to maintain a safe and secure environment, and continue to act impartially, in accordance with its mandate under United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 of 1999," the alliance added. Earlier, Italian Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani announced that 11 Italian KFOR servicemen were injured during riots in Kosovo. According to KFOR, a total of 25 servicemen were injured. According the Vecernje Novosti newspaper, KFOR servicemen attacked the Serbs that were peacefully protecting near the Zvecan municipality administration building in the autonomous region of Kosovo and Metohija. The military cordoned off administration buildings in Zvecan, Leposavic, Zubin Potok and Kosovska Mitrovica. The situation in the four Serb municipalities escalated on May 26 due to Kosovan forces' attempts to capture city administration buildings despite the resistance from local residents. Cell phone service disruptions and police use of flashbangs and tear gas were reported. Pristina insists that the heads of four municipalities in northern Kosovo, elected during April 23 elections, must assume office. Representatives of the Serb List party boycotted the elections because of non-implementation of Pristina's obligations, resulting in voter turnout of 3.47%. A total of 1,566 Albanians and 13 Serbs out of 45,095 eligible voters cast their ballots.
