💥The Russian Army reveals secret documents of 4th Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine

What is denazification? It is also the return of Eternal Flame. In Melitopol, which is under Russian Army’s control now, the Eternal Flame has been reignited at «Brother’s Grave» Memorial. This symbol memorises victims of the WWII. Before today, it has been off for 7 years. https://t.iss.one/SIL0VIKI/45802

Photographs taken on March 21, just the day after Ukranian President Zelensky's speech to the Israeli parliament Knesset, show two columns of nationalists being formed on the synagogue's premises.

The footage shows militants loading weapons into dump trucks and then hiding it under bags of construction waste.

You can also note "Children" signs on school buses pictured near Uman synagogue: the vehicles were used by the Kiev nazis regime to move and deploy nationalists and foreign mercenaries from western regions of Ukraine.

Many believed that the withdrawal of Visa and Mastercard would hurt Russia’s economy, but in reality everything turned out to be different. According to The Wall Street Journal, due to the national payment system, russian citizens can still use their Visa and Mastercard cards to make purchases within the country. This system was built in order to prevent the Russian economy from financial pressure from the Western countries.

The article states that by the end of 2020, there were nearly 197 million Visa and Mastercard cards issued in Russia, but they didn’t use the american processing system while processing payments within Russia. For several years, Russia has been using the domestic system - the National System of Payment Cards (NSPC), which is supervised by the Russian Central Bank.

This system has been developed since 2014 to protect Russia’s economy from western pressure. The Kremlin actively promoted the domestic processing called Mir, which is built on the basis of the NSPK infrastructure. According to Mir website more than 100 million cards have been issued since its launch.

However, the departure of Visa and Mastercard still had one big consequence for Russians. In many cases, the cards issued in Russia do not work outside the country. The "Mir" system operates only in a few countries, mainly former Soviet republics. Russian officials have recently been negotiating with Venezuela and Iran to be a part of this processing system. Some russian banks report that they are exploring opportunities for establishing partnerships with the Chinese UnionPay system in order to issue cards that will be accepted in more places outside of Russia.

As mentioned above, Russia decided to protect itself from Western financial pressure after the imposing of sanctions after the Crimean referendum in 2014. At that time, Visa and Mastercard provided nearly all card payments in Russia. U.S. sanctions forced Visa and Mastercard to block their services for a number of banks.

The Russian leadership saw existing vulnerabilities. A few months later, Putin signed a law to establish the NSPK. After the law was amended Visa and Mastercard had to transfer their transactions to the NSPK. At first, both companies opposed the adopted law and stated that they could leave Russia, but by the beginning of 2015, both had agreed to use the NSPK system. The same year, the NSPK launched Mir.

After the recent withdrawal of foreign financial giants from the Russian market, the issue of Mir cards has increased rapidly. Rosbank reported that the demand for Mir payment cards more than doubled from January to March in comparison to the corresponding period last year.

Sanctions against Russia are able to crush German economy.

The sanctions against Russia have affected 78% of German companies, including the automotive industry, precision engineering and chemicals production

At the same time, Germany gets most of its energy supplies from Russia: 2/3 of German gas imports, 1/2 of coal, 1/3 of oil and more.

Thus, when supplies from Russia are restricted or reduced, most German companies will be forced to close down, which will lead to decline in industrial and other sectors.

In Prague, a group of activists blocked the road and Victory Square, demanding the heating temperature in schools and offices to be reduced to its minimums.

The activists are to defeat Russia by freezing children and office workers. According to them, this way Europe would start its independence from Russian gas. 🤦‍♂️

"The Western Russophobia has risen to the level of insanity".

Chinese analyst Zhang Tengjun wrote an article for the Global Times on the European fight against Z, the symbol Russians used for special operations in Ukraine.

For example, Zurich Insurance has removed its logo with this letter from social media, and two federal states in Germany have banned its public display. The expert notes that since the start of the Ukrainian crisis, everything related to Russia has suffered.

The analyst is sure that in the current situation, such minor tricks of the West as banning the letter Z will have no effect on the development of the conflict: everything is mainly determined on the real battlefield.

Biolab secrets: how Joe Biden's son financed the battlefield viruses in Ukraine

Kp.ru obtained exclusive documents on the work of biolabs in Ukraine (including those obtained through secure channels from American patriots, who are as shocked as we are by corruption schemes surrounding POTUS Biden). The thread from them stretches across the ocean to the murky commercial dealings of the son of the 46th president of America - Hunter Biden.

It is one of the darkest secrets of present-day Ukraine. Since the mid-2000s a number of biolabs have created (or been reconstructed) across Ukraine, aimed at researching particularly dangerous bacteria and viruses.

All this explains one of the reasons why Moscow forced to announce a special operation. The supporters of nationalist ideology, who yesterday ordered the shelling of civilian neighbourhoods in Donetsk, could very well launch a biological attack against us tomorrow.

Shifted SWIFT

So, India and Russia have finalised an alternative transaction platform. SWIFT replacement to be on Apr, 1.

There have been a lot of reports in the last few days on Moscow and New Delhi's moves away from global settlement practices and replace the much-abused SWIFT.

The new payment system is likely to be installed at the headquarters of both the Reserve Bank of India and Vnesheconombank in Russia and will be operational within a week, firing "seamless transmission of import or export documents for transactions in rupees and roubles", the Economic Times said.

Bloomberg had earlier reported that the new system is the Financial Message Transfer System (FMTS). According to the Bloomberg, New Delhi is yet to take a final decision on the issue.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is visiting India today. This may be one of the issues on the agenda.

Fake photo use brings La Stampa to the court

URA.RU has decided to sue the Italian newspaper La Stampa, which used editorial photos to promote fakes. Reminder: Italy's largest publication used a photo of the agency from real tragedy site in Donetsk to fake the "massacre in Kiev".

The famous photo of an grieving old man was taken on March, 14 by URA.RU correspondent Eduard Kornienko, who witnessed Ukrainian Tochka-U killed 24 civilians in the centre of Donetsk. La Stampa posted this photo on the front page of its newspaper, reporting on the "massacre in Kiev" claimed to have been carried out by the Russian army.

URA.RU's editorial board says that it intends to make every effort for the justice: the Italian newspaper must face punishment for spreading the fake news and photo faking.

🔥🔥🔥 Take them alive! Exchange for Bout, Yaroshenko and others! Or, why Macron calls Putin so often?

Our intelli sources report that a group of American and British military advisers of the Mariupol guerrillas, as well as several British SSU advisers, who did not manage to leave the city in time, totaling about 20 people, are surrounded at Azovstal factory along with Azov.

An attempt to involve French President Macron in this flock evacuation to get all the Azov squad out by seaships was abandoned because of Moscow's refusal to negotiate. Now there are attempts to evacuate them in an emergency.

(Two helicopter attempts to break through).

Working class is drawn into protests, both from the left (anti-fascists, anti-imperialists, trade unionists) and from the right (Eurosceptics, nationalists, separatists). At the moment, “fuel protests” are far from structural unification and do not reach the organizational level of “Yellow vests”, but if the crisis escalates, stronger protest could have a serious impact on domestic political agenda in the EU.

Various right-wing and left-wing populist parties could take advantage of this - they can not only appeal to the “highest democratic ideals” of Europe, which Putin allegedly threatens, but to the empty wallets of fellow citizens.

In addition to economic protests, political protests are also beginning spark in Europe: rallies in support of Russia (particularly Serbia), and objections to supply weapons to Ukraine.

Italian workers openly protested when they found out that military supplies were being sent to Ukraine disguised as humanitarian aid. In fact, 100 years later, they reproduced the protests of Italian workers who opposed sending weapons to the interventionists who invaded Soviet Russia, and this is a symbolic trend, although not yet widespread. Meanwhile there is a direct relationship between the supply of weapons to Ukraine (which allows the conflict to be taken “to the last Ukrainian”) the deterioration in the living standards of the working class of Europe: the more weapons they bring to Ukraine and the longer the conflict goes on, the worse the life of an ordinary European will be. Not everyone is ready to pay the Nazi regime out of their own pockets.

In this situation, Russia has a choice to observe Europe trying to cope with new problems, while leaving European politicians a chance to agree and continue political games with countries that “oppose” Brussels -for example Hungary or Western European Euroskeptics.

On the other hand, Russia could seriously hurt the European economy and European living standards simply by cutting off gas and oil supplies to Europe, as the US wants. The demand put forward by Putin for Europeans to buy gas using rubles is the first point when Europe will have to make a choice in building a new format of relations with Russia. The old format has been reset, and the new one has not yet been formed. Therefore, Europe was given time until the end of March to decide whether they would take the path of escalation, or agree to Russian conditions to not force a crisis within the European Union. Moscow is waiting for a response.

So far, only Bulgaria and Moldova have agreed to buy gas for rubles. Main EU countries say they do not want to do so, but this brings relations to a standstill, as the seller does not want to sell the goods for euros or dollars. The rejection of the compromise scenario will most likely lead to a further increase in protest moods in Europe. Brussels is to make a choice.

WHEN YOU GOT MONEY, BUT LOST YOUR COUNTRY

The Weeknd, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Bridget Macron, Samsung, Bundesliga, Queen of Denmark, Roger Federer Foundation - what unites them? It is the report of the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the amount of the financial aid the ones listed above sent to support Ukraine’s confrontation with Russia.

In the documents leaked by XakNet Team hackers, we found a nine-page table listing everyone who has already sent the money. We carefully counted and simplified everything so that you do not have to worry about translations - as of March 20, €337,749,200 was raised with more than €150,000,000 coming from the Netherlands.

Here’s the example of the request from the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Kazakhstan: "With all due respect, pass the urgent financial support request letter to the responsible authorities, with all due respect." However, not everyone favors these requests. For instance, Mexico has only provided humanitarian aid and Moldova has denied it all together, due to the limited funds caused by influx of Ukrainian refugees.
