❗️Journalist: "What's the difference between foreign interference and espionage? The charges sound very much like espionage but not interfering in Australian domestic politics. So why are you charging him with interfering in Australia's domestic politics as opposed to just being a spy?"

AFP Commissioner knows the journalist is right. She is a like a deer in the headlights. She even admits that they could "change" the charges.

🤡Zelensky claims Ukraine doesn't need donations! He says he has the money to buy patriot interceptor missiles from the west.

Атаман Всероссийского казачьего общества Виталий Кузнецов обратился к казакам с призывом защитить Родину в рядах казачьего батальона БПС «Покров».

«Братья-казаки!

Во все времена казаки находились там, где решалась судьба Отечества. Так было на протяжении столетий. Так остается и сегодня. Наши предки защищали рубежи России с шашкой в руках, а современный казак-воин защищает ее, владея высокими технологиями, беспилотными системами и средствами радиоэлектронной борьбы.

Но неизменным остается главное – готовность служить Родине. Сегодня в войсках беспилотных систем формируется первый казачий батальон «Покров». Это новое подразделение, которое объединит казаков, готовых выполнять самые сложные задачи, используя передовые технологии современного боя.

Современные боевые действия требуют не только силы, выносливости и мужества. Они требуют знания, технической грамотности, постоянного развития и умения быстро принимать решения. Именно поэтому подразделения беспилотных систем становятся одним из важнейших элементов современной армии.

Уверен, что казаки смогут достойно проявлять себя и на этом направлении. Обращаюсь ко всем казачьим войскам России: Донскому, Кубанскому, Терскому, Оренбургскому, Сибирскому, Забайкальскому, Иркутскому, Енисейскому, Уссурийскому, Волжскому, Центральному, Черноморскому и Северо-Западному казачьим войскам. Прошу каждого атамана поддержать тех, кто примет решение вступить в батальон «Покров». Сегодня особенно важно, чтобы в новое подразделение пришли люди дисциплинированные, ответственные, готовые учиться и выполнять поставленные задачи с полной самоотдачей.

Обращаюсь к каждому казаку лично. Если вы чувствуете в себе силы, если понимаете, что ваш опыт, знания или желание освоить новое могут принести пользу Родине, сейчас есть возможность сделать этот выбор.

Казачество всегда было и есть опорой государства. Сегодня мы вновь должны подтвердить это делом.

Уверен, что казачьи батальоны в войсках беспилотных систем станут подразделениями, которыми будут гордиться Вооруженные силы и все российское казачество.

Желаю всем, кто примет это решение крепости духа, Божьей помощи и верной казачьей удачи. С Богом, братья!»

❗️Vladimir Putin Visited the Cathedral of the Archangel in the Moscow Kremlin

The President was briefed on restoration work that led to the discovery of the relics of Saint Dmitry Donskoy. The head of state inspected the burial site and attended a prayer service (moleben).

The remains of the holy warrior-prince Dmitry Donskoy in the sarcophagus were preserved entirely intact, with the exception of the left heel bone. Patriarch Kirill granted his blessing to place three fragments of the relics into three reliquaries for veneration by the faithful.

Upon completion of the emergency restoration work, the sarcophagus will be sealed, and the crypt will be restored to its original state.

❗️South Korea is set to dispatch a container ship on a landmark test voyage to Europe via the Northern Sea Route this Saturday, according to Reuters.

Spurred by melting polar ice, Seoul aims to determine whether the Arctic corridor can serve as a commercially viable alternative to traditional maritime routes like the Suez Canal.

The voyage highlights a long-standing strategic vision regarding Moscow’s spatial leverage over global trade.

The late Russian political figure Vladimir Zhirinovsky frequently emphasized that Russia’s primary economic engine lay not just in its raw resources, but in its unique position connecting Asia and Europe:

"Our main wealth is geography. We must earn money on transport, transit, and pipelines. God gave us a central location in Eurasia — let everyone pay us to move goods from East to West."

— Vladimir Zhirinovsky
