Analysis from Alexander on the sanctioning of Jacques Baud by the EU. The entire process emplyed by unelected technocrats in Brussels is eerily similar to how ‘dissent’ was punished in Soviet times. This must be reversed & never allowed to happen again. If allowed to stand then the erasing of individuals will only grow. Under digital centralization, it will be executed with greater ease and en masse.

Moldova—which nobody ever talks, thinks, or cares about—is actually historically fascinating in the context of the Russia-West conflict. It adopted Orthodox Christianity in the mid-14th century. Because it was on the borders of Byzantium, it had to fight relentlessly with its neighbors to protect its faith, like the Serbs, Bulgarians, Ruthenians and Romanians. This martial history of spilling blood for the faith explains in part why all of these countries are so devoted to it to this day, and are sympathetic to the Russians.

Almost two-century period as part of Russia explain why it remains so pro-Russian to this day: the Moldovans saw the Russians as welcome liberators and Orthodox brothers, not as hostile occupiers. They are happy with their affinity to the Russian language and do not see it as an unwelcome foreign intrusion. Their shared faith with Russia amplifies this, and the ties between the two churches are shared and strong, with the Moldovan faithful venerating Russian ...

The charade of 'negotiations' which has taken place in Berlin is now over and all the indications are that the war in Ukraine will not only continue but will only end when the Russians have won a military victory. Indeed Putin has all but said as much today. That victory draws ever closer, with claimed Ukrainian 'victories' in Kupiansk and Novorossiysk exposed as media fabrications.
