Belousov is an "executioner" who will mop up whatever is left in Defense Ministry in terms of its apparatus corruption and streamlining many of the decisions in terms of everyday operations. This also has to do, methinks, with Timur Ivanov's and his network of economic criminals (and possibly foreign intel assets) who used SMO for their own interests. Nothing will change in terms of General Staff, that is people who run SMO.
Meanwhile, this is how "military targets" look like for NATO--civilian apartment blocks--in Belgorod.
This is the only thing they know how to do in war--attack civilians. One of the issues which makes them so butthurt--Russian Forces are extremely cautious in terms of civilians in 404, hence an incredibly low count of civilian casualties in 404. Certainly, nothing even close to genocide by fake Israeli Army which is good only at "offensives" against women and children. I am sure they will teach Israeli "combat experience" at West Point as a way to "fight" the war.
Translation:Ukrainian troops shot down a Russian Il-76 plane carrying captured Ukrainians under pressure from British advisers, a source said.A RIA Novosti source said that this step was taken “without coordination with the air defense headquarters in Kyiv.”No additional verification of information about aircraft movements over the Belgorod region was carried out either.On January 24, near Belgorod, the Ukrainian Armed Forces shot down an Il-76 aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces, on board which were 65 captured Ukrainians, six crew members and three accompanying persons.
That is pretty much the extent of British "military expertise" and overwhelming, debilitating complex of inferiority and, which is psychology 101, as a result, the visceral hatred of Russia which dwarfs UK economically and militarily. So, what's left? Of course, kill the defenseless. Vengeance, no matter how pity and pathetic is the only thing which drives London.
... the former Foreign Minister of Austria (she lives in Russia today, mostly) speaks at 57:00 in video about the fact that attacks on Russian civilians are inspired by NATO countries. The video has English subtitles when watched on UTube.
She states known fact, but she is a person of status and that is why this is important. Killing civilians is what NATO does best, it cannot fight real war, but killing civilians is their modus operandi and we observe it right now both in attacks on Russia and genocide in Gaza. That's what they do best.
It is also a well known fact of the US and British ISR assets providing targeting and surveilling electromagnetic "field" around Russia in order to attack targets. If those are civilian targets--for them it is even better, because the only "victories" those "consultants" ever hadhave been over defenseless people and even animals, such as an unfortunate Skripal cat who fell victim to brave dudes from UK armed forces and MI6.
Meanwhile, somebody has to explain to people with their hand up the ass of this puppet that what he thinks is wrong:
No amount of money can help 404. It can help only to launder more money for DNC cabal and to pay some salaries of 404 government employers and maybe some pensions. Maybe to mobilize another hundred thousand of Ukie cannon fodder. It will only prolong agony. The names of those who targeted civilians in Belgorod, including British and American consultants will be known if not already. They may start looking for new identities.
... and have time to do some brief translation, that would be greatly appreciated. Just regular video of Russian Germans self-organizing in their return to Russia. There are very many of them who are already on the move and who are about to. Especially important is the phone call while in the car, when Vladimir (who is German visiting from Germany) and German family who help Russian Germans in their move to Russia speak to another Russian German guy who already made up his mind after his vacation in Spain and France and concluded that it is over for him and his family. One comment in Russian under this video in YouTube is telling:
Translation:Our Dear Germans, come back. You are needed in Russia. Don't be afraid of problems with moving, here, even when moving inside the country there are always problems. Most important, if your soul is languishing there (in Germany), do not suffer, just come back. For those who are feeling good there, God bless them.
Vladmir is visiting Belgorod and some shots from there are very instructive, life in Russia goes on everywhere and Belgorod is a lovely forest-steppe town also known for Kursk Battle in 1943, and it grows today, not least through Ukrainians who moved to Russia after 2014.
The reason I post this video, however, and consider it important is the fact that Russian (broadly--Soviet) Germans (and now German Germans in addition) are great demographics to judge both the state of West and Russia. Russian Germans are becoming a river of people returning home, while German Germans seriously considering to move or already moving to Russia are now numbered in many thousands. Apart from warm human story and people finding themselves there are other very important markers in these stories which are not immediately noticed by Westerners. As Vladimir notices when shopping in Auchan, some of his native German acquaintances visited Kigiziya recently and as he mocks them were shocked by the supermarket in Bishkek that "there is also food here!" OK, that's Kirgizya and many Westerners have no knowledge of the area, but truth is, many (due to propaganda) still think that once you get outside Moscow or St.Pete's glitz you will see utter poverty and drabness. Well, visiting suburbia in said Belgorod or Novosibirsk, especially in new areas may create a serious cognitive dissonance for many from the West.
Here is a lovely brand new house in Tyumen in one of Tyumen's many new communities, around $100,000 or around R 7,200,000.
You will be surprised how many people can afford such a loan in Russia. Some pay cash. Granted, Tyumen is a boom-town (mid-size city, really) and things are more expensive in the capital of Russia's service (as in producing equipment and maintenance) industry for oil and gas, among many other sectors of manufacturing. And then, of course, there are only two genders in Russia and all that combined makes a huge difference. All this gives us some glimpse of a tectonic processes in Germany (and Europe) and those may play a huge role down the road, that is why I treat them as a significant occurrence.
