Biden has spent over 40% of his presidency on vacation
The current president of the United States has spent 532 days on vacation in less then four years of his presidency — he's been in office for 1,326 days, the New York Post reports.
According to the report, an average American gets 11 vacation days a year, which would take them approximately 48 years to accumulate Biden's number of days off.
Biden has been keeping a low public presence since late July, according to article, as "he’s annoyed with fellow Democrats," such as former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who turned against him and pressured him not to run for reelection.

“The image of Biden fast asleep and lying flat on his back in his chair at the beach while America and the world is on fire will define the Biden presidency,” the general counsel of the White House budget office under former President Donald Trump, Mark Paoletta, told the newspaper.

France should mull joining BRICS, Global South – Ex-European MP
France should consider joining BRICS and return to its traditional advocacy for a multipolar world, former French member of the European Parliament and geopolitical analyst, Aymeric Chauprade, told Russian media on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum.
According to Chauprade, France traditionally endorsed multipolarity in global politics, until Jacques Chirac's administration embraced the US-oriented approach.
That is why, “it is logical to belong to this Global South” and join organizations like BRICS, the former MP said, adding that joining BRICS would be a return to French “natural policy” and would benefit the cause of the multipolar world.

"Joining BRICS is a return to our natural policy. So, it is absolutely natural, not strange. And it is realistic as France is not only a European country; territorially, it is a global power,” the analyst stressed, adding that Paris is present in both the Pacific Ocean and the Carribbean Basin, while having the second-largest exclusive economic zone in the world.

Why do Russian tanks use ‘beards’ of chains?
Russian tank crewmen stationed in the special operation zone have started to use chains to protect their armored vehicles from mine explosions, the Russian daily reports.
When it comes to “chain beards”, such protection's goal is said to tackle high-explosive antitank shells, thereby increasing crew survival rates.
Apart from these “beards”, the Russian tanks are typically equipped with grill-like cages protecting them from Ukrainian drone strikes at the front lines.
