... because it is the only way to react diplomatically, but that underscores WHY there can be no normal relations with Europe.
Translation: PETERSBURG, June 19 — RIA Novosti. Russia expects an apology from the Italian television company Rai for the words of its representative about the "strike on the Kremlin," said the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova. "At the very least, we expect an official apology from the management of the television and radio company Rai, but it seems to me that Italian officials should also speak out and say that this is not the norm for Italy — such unbridledness and such permissiveness," she said during a briefing on the sidelines of the SPIEF. Last week, Rai's director of institutional relations, former TV presenter Marco Frittella, commented on a post on the social network X, which said that Russian President Vladimir Putin, former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei were allegedly present in Moscow at the same time. Frittella wrote that "one accurate missile would have been enough." He later deleted the comment.
Obviously, nobody expects any apologies because Western establishment media are nothing more than collection of low-lives who support terrorism and many qualify for being charged with war crimes. IT IS the norm for them. This buttresses my constant argument that there is nothing to be gained from relations with Europe. Vladimir Putin also is open about it:
Translation: "A year and a half or two ago, conversations with [former] Chancellor [of Germany Olaf] Scholz and other European leaders were regular, but at some point, when our European partners decided to inflict a strategic defeat on us on the battlefield, they themselves stopped these contacts. They stopped, please let them resume. We are open," he said.
Word "please" in this connotation means--sure, let them try.
Meanwhile, Israeli (US) AD continues to successfully intercept Iranian missiles, which, as you may have suspected are "intercepted" the same way as 404 intercepts them.
So, did Israel (US) miscalculate? Oh, you can bet your ass on that. And even Steve Bannon continues to believe that if Israel and the US strike Iran, she will collapse. I assume Bannon is a much better ideologue of America First (I support this message, BTW) than he was a naval intelligence analyst. The military incompetence is staggering--this is the price one pays when US military academies and War Colleges teach all kinds of BS BUT the real military history and operations. Iran, meanwhile, is turning Israel into Gaza.
But if people from RAI insist, Russia can demonstrate to them and human trash which works there what REAL missiles are. I am sure, however, that Ted Postol will assess Circular Error Probable of Kinzhal or Oreshnik as, say, 10 kilometers? Nay--20, no less than that. /s
Meanwhile. We know that Trump's adjectives vernacular is limited to there words: good, beautiful and wonderful. But what the fuck is the deal with this "two weeks" shit? It is always "two weeks" in Trump's universe. Can anyone explain to him that the time has other measures, like 10 days, three weeks, one month and even half-a-year? But what do I know ...
