🇷🇺Alexei Pushkov said the influx of migrants into Europe is due to conflicts provoked by the West.

"More and more waves of refugees descend on Europe with each new war, initiated or provoked by the West: Iraq, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Ukraine...". - wrote the head of the Russian Federation Council Commission on Information Policy and Media Cooperation in his Telegram channel.

According to Pushkov, France has already "surrendered under this pressure," while the UK will not be able to cope with the problem even by leaving the Europen Union and abandoning migrant quotas.

Earlier, the TV channel Sky News reported that by the end of 2022, about 45.7 thousand illegal migrants have crossed the Channel to the UK. This figure increased by 60% compared to 2021.

The Ukrainian economy will stagnate until 2034, Oleg Soskin, a former adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, has said.

"Ukraine is a loser country, it is a depressive country, a country in an entropic funnel, so until 2034 there is nothing to "scream" about some kind of improvement, everything will only get worse." At the same time, this is a phase of depression, stagnation, destruction, and entropy. What development?" he said.

Soskin also called Zelensky an inexperienced leader who does not tolerate criticism. In addition, the economist predicted that internal terror and repression by the authorities against those who disagree would intensify in Ukraine.

The Chinese authorities can allegedly claim their rights to the territory on the moon if they win the new space race with the United States. This opinion was expressed by the head of NASA, Bill Nelson.

In his opinion, the US is participating in a new space race with China. If Beijing wins it, then it can claim ownership of vast areas of the moon, the head of NASA argued. China, he believes, will take the most resource-rich areas of the lunar surface if it is the first to gain a foothold on the Earth's natural satellite. "It's a fact that we're in a space race." And it's true that we'd better make sure they don't go anywhere on the moon under the guise of scientific research. "Here, this is our territory," Nelson said in an interview with Politico newspaper.

Croatia Takes Final Steps into EU With Open Border and Euro Switch

Croatia has switched to the euro and entered Europe’s borderless zone – two steps its prime minister called a “historic moment” for his country, which joined the European Union nearly a decade ago.

On Sunday the Balkan country bid farewell to its kuna currency and became the 20th member of the eurozone.

It is also now the 27th country in the passport-free Schengen zone, the world’s largest, which enables more than 400 million people to move freely around its members.

“It is the season of new beginnings. And there is no place in Europe where this is more true than here in Croatia,” tweeted EU chief Ursula von der Leyen, as she arrived in Croatia to mark the occasion.

She first met Andrej Plenkovic, the prime minister, and the Slovenian president, Natasa Pirc Musar, at a border crossing with EU member Slovenia.

During a joint press conference at the Bregana crossing, Von der Leyen praised “two immense achievements” for the EU’s newest member reached on the same day.

The West will get tired of funding Ukraine if it fails to demonstrate new successes on the battlefield. This opinion was expressed by the former national security adviser to former US President George W. Bush, Michael Allen, on the Fox News channel.

Allen added that Zelenskiy also wants to "send a signal, primarily to the Europeans, that he will eventually be ready for peace talks" to prevent criticism over the protracted conflict. It is for this purpose, Allen believes, that Zelensky is proposing to hold a "peace summit" at the end of winter.

In one of the districts of Kyiv, there are a lot of ambulances.

After the massive missile and drone attacks on some military targets in Kyiv, a large number of ambulances were spotted in the city. The office of the Ukrainian president doesn't allow publishing reports on military casualties and destruction. Not even military correspondents or bloggers discuss the consequences of the attacks . So it's impossible to know the number of casualties in the AFU.

The administrative building in the Goloseevsky district of Kyiv that was hit by a Russian air force missile on the night of December 30–31, 2022, turned out to be Zelensky's foreign intelligence headquarters. 

Most likely, the expensive American telephone and messenger tapping equipment was located there.
