Albania: Ordinary tourists isn’t illegally trying to access an arms factory…

In Albania, two Russians and a Ukrainian were detained while trying to break into a military factory near the town of Gramsh. One of the Russians resisted and wounded two soldiers guarding the plant. All of the detainees are suspected of espionage” (Nexta, 21.08.2022).

The Albanian Ministry of Defence announced the arrest of two Russians and a Ukrainian, while trying to enter an arms factory. “Three citizens with Russian and Ukrainian passports tried to enter the plant. When trying to stop three foreign citizens, two of our soldiers were injured, ”the department noted. The Russian Embassy in Albania stated that it has not yet received information from the authorities of the republic about the detention of the Russians” (David Kime, 21.08.2022).

The suspects of espionage came to Albania, as tourists, claimed to be journalists, photographers and bloggers. They clearly had a mission of sorts, because who visits a military factory or arms production, unannounced?

Who carries chemicals on them that is life-endangering to the ones that inhales or gets it on their skin? Like the two soldiers who is wounded and in the hospital. Any ordinary tourists carries soft-drinks, snacks and possibly some souvenirs. However, most tourists isn’t carrying or having in case dangerous chemicals in their back-packs. That’s just a given…

This is why this story is of a spy-novel. It isn’t a tale of tourists or of tourism. This didn’t happen on the Albanian Riviera, walking around in the BulkArt or taking photos of the town of Gjirokastër. That’s what tourists would do. If not enjoy the other tourist sites in Tirana or elsewhere in the Albanian republic for that matter.

They are now claimed to connected to the FSB and the spy agency of the Russian federation. This seems likely. Since, it is a plot taken out of a spy-movie. The ones in the plot used the means of tourist visa and tried to access a military base/arms factory. That is really telling what the Russians are willing to do.

If this isn’t suspicious activity nothing is. We know certain parts of the internet is downplaying it. However, this sounds fishy and is questionable at best. Because, as a seldom tourist myself. I would visit historical sites, recommended by Lonely Planet or whatnot. I wouldn’t try to illegally enter or be anywhere near a military base/arms factory. I got nothing to do there and it wouldn’t be my place to be at. That’s why the story of just taking photographs or passing by doesn’t make sense.

This was a planned attempt of entry and because it failed. The soldiers who stopped them got the consequences of doing so. They got hurt and is suffering for whatever type of chemical the spies had on them. It just not common to carry or to even have it. That just shows what sort of mission they were a part of certainly they had tasks to fulfil in Albania.

If not… they wouldn’t have risked this mission and tried to access it. Because, the FSB and the Russians wants to know what is going on there. Peace.

Opinion: Ten Hag should regret that he left Ajax

The Manchester United Manager, Erik Ten Hag are clearly struggling to grasp his new club and the challenge, which is ahead of him. The job he has is massive and the others has failed before him. Ever since Alex Ferguson retired, no one has able to contain or build a team at the club. That’s why he won’t have the time or the ability to build much confidence before his saga at the club is over.

Ten Hag has only had two Premier League matches. One home and one Away. Both has ended in disaster. One a loss to Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 at Old Trafford and today losing 4-0 to Brentford away at Brentford (Gtech) Community Stadium. Certainly the 1-6 in goal difference and zero points is a horrific start of the season. None of these matches was against title contenders or any sort of team that is expected to get to Euro League or anything. No, these are teams that expected to avoid relegation and that’s about it.

The Dutch Manger who has been successful in the Eredivisie. That’s why he built himself a name with FC Utrecht and Ajax. The latter is where he won titles and also did well as reach Semi-Finals in the Champions League, and the Quarter-Finals in the Euro League. So, it’s not like he doesn’t have a track-record and done an amazing job in Ajax. That has been obvious and this is why so many of players was sold to bigger clubs.

However, now where he resides it’s different. Whatever results he had in pre-Season doesn’t matter. The cups or so called titles in practice matches are pointless. The Premier League and the results are the ones that matters the most. The ability to reach Champions League and be a title contender. The Manchester United club isn’t supposed to look this awful.

There is so much expectation and history, which haunts the club. That’s why anybody following Ferguson has fallen off. The club has had Moyes, Mourinho, Solskjær and Rangnick. All of them has been there and later crashed. The club has just hired them and later sacked them. While keeping plenty of players and stars on their pay-roll. This has further made the rot evident and clear.

There big names and supposed wonder-boys who was supposed to shine. However, it hasn’t materialized in years. The people from the academy haven’t brought things up to speed as well. There is no signs of redemption and so much lost time. Hack work and few signings from each who has been there. Now it seems like there is no vision or attitude of how the club wants to be run. They are either trying to get the ones to sell the most T-Shirts or Merchandise, but not the characters that build a functioning team.

Ten Hag has not only very little to no time. The sort of results at Brentford isn’t taken lightly. Neither is the loss to Brighton at home. These sorts of things has to be flukes. It is a reason why OGS was fazed out. Now the Dutch Manager has to revive and build a team. A team that he got no time to build. The results just has to appear and there will be “borrowed” time to fix it or adjust. He just got to find the tools and get the players to follow his paradigm shift. Because, what the world is seeing right now isn’t working.

These days… I wouldn’t feel bad or feel like he betrayed his new club. If Ten Hag said he missed Ajax. That was his wonder years and where he had success. Now his come to place and a league he has no time to grow into. Manchester United is an unforgiving place and a club with huge expectations. These results cannot be prolonged and sooner or later he has to show PlayStation football against an opponent. Because, what we are seeing right now isn’t doing him any good.

Ten Hag era will end in tears. It is just starting and this is looking grim. Peace.

Ukraine: The Amnesty International Report isn’t understanding a defensive war…

Ukrainian forces have put civilians in harm’s way by establishing bases and operating weapons systems in populated residential areas, including in schools and hospitals, as they repelled the Russian invasion that began in February, Amnesty International said today. Such tactics violate international humanitarian law and endanger civilians, as they turn civilian objects into military targets. The ensuing Russian strikes in populated areas have killed civilians and destroyed civilian infrastructure. “We have documented a pattern of Ukrainian forces putting civilians at risk and violating the laws of war when they operate in populated areas,” said Agnès Callamard, Amnesty International’s Secretary General” (Amnesty International – ‘Ukraine: Ukrainian fighting tactics endanger civilians’ 04.08.2022).

The Amnesty International Report of yesterday is certainly a golden nugget for Kremlin and Moscow. The internally renowned organization is setting a standard and a voice, which is fitting well for the attackers or invaders in this case. The Amnesty Internation is doing itself a disservice actually. Instead of looking into the warfare and the acts of both parties. They are blaming the defending party and how they are trying stop or regain it’s territories. That’s seems like a lost part of it and the whole report seems fixated on blaming and vilify the Defence of Ukraine.

What is striking here is that Amnesty doesn’t comprehend or understand a defensive war. As the Russian aggression, attacks and blatant carpet bombing isn’t considered. Neither is there is a show of the war-crimes from the regions of which the Russians has retreated from. This just shows what sort of hack-work this report is.

The Ukrainian forces has to use cities and populated areas. That is something the Russian forces are bombing, targeting and viciously attacking on the regular too. So, it is not like the Ukrainian forces would do this, but they got too. Because they are defending their territories and the nation.

The report of Amnesty doesn’t clarify or comes with reasoning. Only comes with direct accusations without justifications of it. Like they cannot comprehend or understand the realities on the ground. They are using the means and the knowledge of the territories, in such a way that the aggressor and invader has to struggle to gain territory. That’s what a war does and the Russians has attacked civilian targets, schools, museums and all things associated with Ukrainian culture. Heck, they are burning books and re-schooling children only in Russian in the occupied territories. Therefore, the neglect of the whole manner of which Russian forces is attacking is obviously lost here.

For an organization as renowned and known as Amnesty. An organization bound to fight for human rights and justice. This report isn’t doing any good, but instead helping Russian propaganda. The report will be used by Kremlin news-services and be spread as wild-fire. A sort of message and stories that will be mentioned to defend the Russian invaders. Since it explains and uses language that alleges Ukrainians as criminals with the defence of their own nation. That’s impressive and not what you could expect of Amnesty.

The armed forces of Ukraine cannot pick their battlefields. That is in play because of where the Russians are occupying and where they are based. This makes it impossible to choose distant and far outback wheat-fields to do medieval battles with swords and crossbows. The war that is going on is a modern warfare and on the basis of how the Russians has attacked the Republic of Ukraine. It is so simple and should have been considered in the report, but that was too much to ask.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine cannot ask or beg the Russians to attack in rural areas or densely populated ones. The Russians are attacking and occupying populated cities, towns and villages. That isn’t the fault of Ukraine. However, it felt that like that reading Amnesty report. It is really amazing, but they should be able to think and consider before publishing this.

The analysts and the ones studying the war or warfare in Amnesty International. They clearly need to study what a defensive war entails and what an offensive aggressor does. Because, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are defending themselves and to whatever means they see fit. While they are also asking and pleading for the civilians to get out or have “cease-fires” or routes to safe-haven for the innocent civilians on the front-lines or battlefields. Therefore, it’s so outrageous reading this and the Kremlin friendly media will “love this”. Peace.

Opinion: Museveni isn’t sensing the times his in…

President Yoweri Tibuhurwa Kaguta Museveni calls history “current affairs” and uses old diplomatic spats or conflicts in light of today. However, his forgetting one thing in the picture that the times has changed as well. Yes, Uganda is a sovereign and should be allowed to make friends or allies with whoever they deem fit. Nevertheless, in doing so.. you cannot expect former allies and friends to be as warm to you. When you have decided to pick a side in a conflict.

The conflict Museveni has picked a side in is Ukraine. Not by abstaining a vote in the United Nations, but by association with Russians and doing business with Kremlin. That is a choice and a decision made by default. The same defending Moscow’s reasons for invading and wanting to annexation of Ukrainian territories. That’s what Museveni is signalling… and saying after the visit of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

After that visit the United States sent their Ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield. The information and the messages sent from Museveni is clear. That he wants to be allied with Russia and it’s beneficial to him. He don’t even mind to cease or see the end of aide from the U.S. and says Uganda could thrive without support from the West. Certainly, if he would do that… the Ugandan President is gambling with his future and possible default of the ever growing loans in the middle of a downturn in the economy and rising inflation. It isn’t like the economy is booming or having any sort of upturn. Instead the financial implications would be horrific and it’s like his reckless about it.

Museveni should study the times.. there is a realignment of allies and who is working together. The President is either on the side of the West or heading into the hands of Kremlin. The Ukrainian invasion is only showing who is willing to back and be partners of Putin. The others who are stepping to the other side and defending the independence of Ukraine. Museveni is siding with Putin and therefore, also in turn turning on the West. He cannot have it both ways now.

A man of history should show how it went with Said Barre, the dictator of Somalia who went from a Soviet ally into an American asset. The same way can be seen here and Museveni is trying to play these diplomatic games. However, it is a sort of cold-war-esque era now. The beginning of it and the rising sanctions on Russia is a proof of that. Now, that Museveni sides with Kremlin, he shouldn’t expect so much goodwill from Washington D.C. Nevertheless, trust me when the push get to shove. The Ugandan President could regret doing this, because this could make other things harder later down the line.

Yes, the President is in his right not to ask for “instructions” and live as a “sovereign”. Still, when a sovereign makes a choice and a decision. He opens one door and closes another one. That’s a way of life. Museveni by this choice is more valuable to Lavrov and Putin than to Biden. This is what is initially boiling down too.

I’m sure Museveni would miss the $950 million per year in U.S. assistance to the Ugandan coffers. If the U.S. decided not to send these funds or cease. I’m pretty sure the Kampala diplomatic core would go on begging expedition and hire more K Street lobbyist to re-engage the Washington D.C. back on board. However, it will not be that easy. When the President is picking sides and he cannot stand-by both. Especially, when his supporting the imperial war in Ukraine. Defending the aggressor and the ones behind the evils done to Kyiv.

It is like Museveni don’t see this picture and thinks his so far away that it don’t matter to him. However, when the millions of dollars stops from the Western powers. Certainly, the debt-recycling cannot be salvaged and lack of budget assistance will be severe. Since, Museveni has built a career on living of these funds. While not having the need to be accountable by it.

The tides are turning and it’s not the era of flip-flopping between the East and the West. No, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has forever altered that. If Museveni cannot see that. Well, the lavish life in Rwakitura farm or any of the State Lodges for that matter. The Entebbe State House seems decided and because of that. If it faces consequences later down the line. It cannot cry havoc or act like a victim. It choose Putin and Kremlin by default of doing so. The Ugandan President should expect love and support from the West at the rate he was used too. Peace.

Republika a Kosoves: Press Release (31.07.2022)

Opinion: The Tories are in shambles…

The debate yesterday between Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak only shows how bad the things are in the Conservative Party. Yes, the party has been inept and out of bound towards the troubles it has created. The Tories are the party who has reigned the United Kingdom for over 10 years and still inevitably not able to fix anything substantial. Alas, that is the main issue here.

The two leaders, the Foreign Secretary and former Chancellor has experience. They have both been in office and served in the Her Majesties Government. Still, by every day they seem like a nightmare that one of them is taking over for Boris Johnson. Not that Boris set the bar high either. To the contrary he depleted it and abolished the bar completely. In such a manner that codes of conduct or the Nolan Principal was sort of erased.

As an outsider… I have no faith in either of them. They are not honest actors or leaders, which I could trust or see as fit. One of these two will become the Head of State by default. Just because the Tories currently hold the most seats in Parliament and won the last election. Not because any of these two fought for the voters or any significant cause. No, they just the most cunning within the ruling party.

There is nothing that looks sincere or real about it. They are both willing to act and say things in stark contrast to the enacted laws, the budgets they have passed and the total package of legislation, which they have vouched for over the years. So, when these speaks of the rising poverty, the rising inflation and the burden of ordinary people. Well, these two was part of the party that made things worse and haven’t sorted things out.

Instead these two are the likes that blames France for troubles for citizens and lorries with goods to cross to Calais from Dover. They wouldn’t take any responsibility for supporting or standing behind the Brexit agreement. Neither would they boldly say that the Brexit is the reason for a drastic downturn, which would have happen with or without COVID-19. The Ukraine conflict is just amplifying the financial burdens, but it was already bleak. That was something they both knew and cannot run away from.

So, when they are trying to outsmart and sound like they will fix things. Well, as long as they are honouring the Brexit. There will be little to no changes, but as a Third Country things will only get harder. The realities of lack of movement to Europe and blocking Europeans from direct short-term visits. Will only hurt more industries and make it less accessible. Why go to rainy London and have to apply in advance? When you can just go to sunny Barcelona or be in Rome. There is no need to feel the fog or try to get a Paddington teddy-bear then.

Therefore, the Tories are in a pickle. A pickle they have created for themselves and everyone has to live through. No matter who becomes the captain there is no easy way out. Especially, if the fatigue and the lack of trust continues. Not like the fellow aspirants oozes of that or shows any significant flair of sorts. No, they are just the run-of-the-mill careerist politicians. Who are willing to say anything to be elected and follow wherever the wind takes them.

It hasn’t been a soft journey since David Cameron resigned. From there it’s been hurricanes and earthquakes. Still, the party has moved from the messy Theresa May to the scandalous Boris Johnson. Whatever Truss or Sunak delivers. Well, they haven’t the need to do much to look better. However, they have no time to prove their qualities either. Because, things aren’t getting better, but instead worse. That’s all on their own making and with factors they couldn’t foresee.

Now, these two leaders has to prove for the electorate in the Tory party. That they are the person to bring it forward and continues the reign. Nevertheless, it just seems hopeless. These two will only show what is wrong with the party and why it got here. They will not solve anything or make it better. No, that’s only possible with a General Election and new Members of Parliament. Because, right now…

It is grim and these two aren’t it. I cannot see them achieving or making a difference. They will only serve the elite and their needs. While adding more burdens on the working class and their disadvantaged financial situation. Just like the Tories a moment ago allowed companies under industrial action to hire people while others are striking. Taking away the rights and helping the companies instead. That’s the sort of individuals we are speaking of here. The sort of gallivanting for the rich and speaking softly to the poor. This is what they do and I don’t get how the public got tricked by this.

These two will only show the sinister side of the Tories. Which has been on full display of late. They will not try to change or see any reasons too. These two will only continue the reckless legacies and the abysmal legislations. The ones that tearing people apart and leaving no hope for the future. While either blaming the victims of it or the EU. Peace.

Opinion: Orbán cannot outsmart the DNA..

We [Hungarians] are not a mixed race, and we do not want to become a mixed race either” -Prime Minister Viktor Orbán (23.07.2022).

The Hungarian history from the Huns to today is filled with mixing with neighbours and other tribes. The Hungarian legacies is far beyond the shores that is known as Hungary. This is just show that blind nationalism is forging history and the ethnic background of a people. Orbán should study his own people and how the state became an entity. Heck, the whole population should take reliable DNA tests for ethnicity and the results would shatter the minds of Fidesz. Because, it’s isn’t as he believes or anyone else.

I will therefore show you two texts, which shows how multi-ethnic Hungary is and how mixed it is. The historical accuracy and the knowledge of how Hungary became how it is today. Only proves that. The populist in Fidesz might dismiss that. Since that doesn’t fit their narrative or belief-system. However, like all Central European nations. They are mixed and filled with multiculturalism. That’s natural because of the borders, the wars and all the migration that happens over time.

Just read these two quotes from two different articles on the matter and they really settle it!

Immigration to and emigration from Hungary, both temporary and permanent, have been a reality to reckon with since the birth of the country. Hungary is situated in a geographical and geopolitical zone deeply influenced by the economic, political, social and religious conflicts between East and West, North and South, and by efforts to equalise these differences. From early on, immigration created a sort of multiculturalism in Hungary. This became self-evidence in the Habsburg Empire, when Hungarians cohabited and mingled with Germans, various Slavic groups, Italians, Romanians and Jews for centuries” (Frank Tibor – ‘MIGRATIONS IN HUNGARIAN HISTORY – PART I’, 12.01.2016, Hungarian Review)

To start with, the Magyars installed themselves in what is today Hungary, together with peoples who were already in the area. Others – from both east and west – joined them after the conquest and began to settle in the country in the 10th–11th centuries. This pattern continued with several settlement campaigns later on, for example in the 13th–14th centuries and in the 17th–19th centuries” (…) “Acting as the proverbial bridge between east and west secured Hungarian culture an eventful and colourful history and genetic mix, similar to the average European. Were you to set out to find a Hungarian without a mixed genetic background, it would be a challenge, to say the least. Most people, not just Hungarians, share a good part of their ancestors down the line. Sharing a common language and, via the language, its literature and sense of history, would fulfil the criteria of homogeneity for some cultures” (Zsuzsanna Ardó – ‘The paradox of ethnic homogeneity – a Hungarian example’ 13.03.2014, OpenDemocracy,net).

Some might say that the speech of Prime Minister Orbán is controversial. I beg to differ. I would say its delusional and utter garbage. The Hungarian Prime Minister might feel like this and say the Hungarian people isn’t mixed. However, that doesn’t make it true. By default, the ancestors and their actions in combination of the migration of both the Maygars and the other tribes are all collectively a part of how Hungary looks today.

That’s why its really foolish and lack of knowledge to come with a statement like this. This racial purity stuff is far-right nonsense, which isn’t based on facts and historical patterns. The PM can say these words, but it doesn’t make it true. It only shows his open ignorance and lack of concern of his own heritage and how multi-cultural Hungary is.

I shouldn’t have to write these things. As it is set in stone, but someone has to counter the stupidity and acknowledge the fact. Unless, Orbán and Fidesz will do mass DNA testing to prove a point, which he cannot win. Because, the DNA will not lie and Orbán knows this. Peace.

Ukraine: Lavrov wants to shift the narrative…

The geographical tasks of the special operation have changed, now it is not only the Luhansk and the Donetsk, but also a number of other territories”Sergey Lavrov (20.07.2022).

After 147 days since the Russian-Belorussian invasion of Ukraine. The “Special Operation” aka the full-fledge war and invasion is supposed to hit a new gear. Well, I don’t believe, Kremlin, Putin or Lavrov in this matter. They have already tried to bomb everywhere on the map. They have tried to cease all territories and attack most parts. Heck, they attacked and moved units into Belarus, which was used to attack Ukrainian soil. Therefore, the sudden shift isn’t believable. We just know the drill and the appeal of these statements.

The supposed Russian Diplomat Sergey Lavrov know how these statements will be amplified and cause a stir. However, nobody should be shocked. The Russian Federation wants to annex whole of Ukraine and erase the nation from the map. They want a puppet (junta) regime in power in Kyiv, which Putin can order around and be his bitch like the dictator in Minsk. That’s all he ever wanted and dreams off. His not concerned about the costs or the price of doing so. As long as the Ukrainian nation is under his feet and bowing to his supremacy. That’s really it…

So, the diplomat of Kremlin continues:

the West supplies Kiev with long-range weapons, the geographical tasks of the special operation in Ukraine will be pushed even further” (Lavrov, 20.07.2022).

This sort of sentiment isn’t new either. Since the beginning of the “Special Operation” aka full fledged war. The Kremlin has pushed to further escalate things. There been rumours circulating about continuing the conflict in Georgia, Moldova and elsewhere in the former USSR Republic, which is the ones that Putin wants under his control.

Another one of Putin’s allies Dmitry Medvedev has written about Poland and come with utterances in the same regard. That’s why Lavrov’s words isn’t that astonishing now. His just getting them to make headlines again.

The Russians wants to spark fear, intimidate and create hysteria. However, the Russians has wanted to take control of the whole Ukraine. That was the goal and a brief three day war, which has ended up in a prolonged conflict. In which the losses has been huge and thousands of soldiers has died. The costs of the war must be vast and the coffers of Moscow must feel a pinch.

That’s why Putin, Lavrov and everyone else has to bring fear. Since their armies aren’t moving swiftly enough or capable of taking territories quickly enough. They are not even able to keep them in-tact or for a long time. That’s why Lavrov speaks like this.

Trying to make it believable… that all of a sudden the motivation has changed and suddenly they want to annex more territories. When we all know they wanted it form the on-set. They didn’t bomb Kyiv to save Donbas. They bombed Kyiv to takeover and annihilate the current Ukrainian leadership. Alas, the sort of play from Lavrov should be undressed. They wouldn’t have massacred civilians in Bucha and elsewhere around in Kyiv oblast. If they didn’t want to be the conquer and be the overlords of Ukraine.

Lavrov try to sell your stories elsewhere. The lies and deceptions doesn’t work. If want to lie to me. Lie better. Please, because this just looks and sounds stupid. Peace.
