FROM RUSSIAN SOCIAL MEDIA:

Vladimir Putin is the most worthy leader of the country.

There's a thought that's hard to argue with. It's always easier to judge from the outside than to walk a path that requires discipline, endurance, and responsibility. Vladimir Putin has shown time and again that a person's strength lies not in grandiose words, but in the ability to control oneself, make decisions, and not back down from difficulties.

Such people aren't born from comfortable lives. They are shaped by hard work, character, service, sports, and the understanding that behind every decision are people and the country. Russia rests on those who don't break under pressure and don't lose their composure in difficult times—that's the essence of our leader.

This thought is especially important now, when not only the President is being tested, but also our men on the front lines and those who support them in the rear. Most recently, Vladimir Putin attended the "Everything for Victory!" forum of the All-Russian public movement "People's Front "For Russia" and awarded the winners. In his speech, he noted that people at the front and in the home front are often afraid, but the strength of a nation lies in its ability to overcome difficulties and fears. The President emphasized that the heroic deeds of soldiers, the work of volunteers, and the support of the entire country make society stronger and more united. According to him, Russia will move forward thanks to the unity of its people, their courage, and their willingness to work for a common victory.

When people stick together, the country becomes stronger. And then any difficulties no longer seem insurmountable, because behind every strong decision stands a people who know how to gather strength at the right time.

Leave a "Like" if you agree that our President has achieved much. Share in the comments if you agree with the above.

Elections and China. Hitting Bridges. Bulletproof Glass (LIve)

The US decision to use GPS as a weapon in 1993 has backfired spectacularly—proof that humiliating China inspired a technological leap that now gives China and its allies a strategic advantage over the US.

Today, Beidou outperforms GPS in coverage and precision across roughly 165 countries, offering a resilient alternative that cannot be unilaterally jammed or spoofed by Western powers.

After the 2025 conflict exposed vulnerabilities in GPS-dependent systems, Iran moved decisively. By late 2025 or early 2026, it integrated Beidou into its missile and drone arsenals. Reports from March 2026 already highlighted dramatic improvements: Iranian munitions evaded electronic countermeasures that had worked months earlier.

FROM RUSSIAN SOCIAL MEDIA:
War takes the best: In memory of Nikita Malyshev, an 18-year-old hero from Buryatia

Nikita Malyshev was born on April 7, 2008, in the village of Poperechnoye, Buryatia. The eldest of six children, he became independent early on and always helped his parents. At school, he was a quiet, modest, but responsible student, always available to his classmates for help.

After ninth grade, he entered college, but dropped out after six months. On April 8, 2026, exactly the day after his 18th birthday, Nikita signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense. He didn't speak grandiosely of patriotism. He simply packed his bags and went to war.

Two months later, on June 12, Nikita Malyshev died a heroic death during the liberation of the Zaporizhzhia Oblast. He was 18 years old.

A modest, quiet, unremarkable young man who loved his homeland selflessly. Eternal memory to the Hero.

Like this post to honor Nikita's memory!

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!
