Aww, Poor Babies.

The moment Lavrov states (yesterday) that if NATO wants to decide issue on the battlefield, so be it, Russia is ready, Europeans suddenly begin to backtrack and... lying as usual. 

БРЮССЕЛЬ, 13 мая. /ТАСС/. Еврокомиссия считает дезинформацией заявления о том, что Евросоюз хочет победы на Украине на поле боя, несмотря на то что эту фразу ранее написал глава дипслужбы ЕС Жозеп Боррель. Об этом заявил представитель внешнеполитической службы ЕС Петер Стано на брифинге в Брюсселе. Комментируя по просьбе журналистов фразу Сергея Лаврова, которого президент России Владимир Путин предложил переназначить на пост главы МИД, о том, что если на Западе "хотят [решения конфликта на Украине] на поле боя, то будет на поле боя", Стано счел ее "дезинформацией и искажением реальности". В свою очередь глава пресс-службы Еврокомиссии Эрик Мамер назвал такой же вопрос журналистов некорректным. "Европейский союз не на поле боя. Это Россия хочет победы на поле боя. Спрашивать нас об этом, извините меня, это означает игнорировать все, что мы говорили по этой теме раньше", - утверждал он. Он также сказал, что Евросоюз - это "организация, основанная на философии мира". Боррель первым из еврочиновников заявил, что конфликт на Украине "должен быть выигран на поле боя". Он написал об этом 9 апреля 2022 года в X (ранее Twitter) после визита в компании главы Еврокомиссии Урсулы фон дер Ляйен на Украину. С того момента эта фраза постоянно повторялась на протяжении 2022 года и первой половины 2023 года многими европейскими политиками, а потом исчезла из лексикона еврочиновников. По времени это примерно совпало с разгромом так называемого украинского наступления летом прошлого года.

Translation: BRUSSELS, May 13. /TASS/. The European Commission considers statements that the European Union wants victory in Ukraine on the battlefield to be disinformation, despite the fact that this phrase was previously written by the head of the EU diplomatic service, Josep Borrell. This was stated by EU Foreign Service Representative Peter Stano at a briefing in Brussels. Commenting at the request of journalists on the phrase of Sergei Lavrov, whom Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed to reappoint as head of the Foreign Ministry, that if the West “want [a solution to the conflict in Ukraine] on the battlefield, then it will be on the battlefield,” Stano considered it “ misinformation and distortion of reality." In turn, the head of the press service of the European Commission, Eric Mamer, called the same question from journalists incorrect. "The European Union is not on the battlefield. It is Russia that wants victory on the battlefield. Asking us about this, excuse me, means ignoring everything we have said on this topic before," he argued. He also said that the European Union is "an organization based on a philosophy of peace." Borrell was the first European official to say that the conflict in Ukraine “must be won on the battlefield.” He wrote about this on April 9, 2022 on X (formerly Twitter) after a visit to Ukraine in the company of the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen. From that moment on, this phrase was constantly repeated throughout 2022 and the first half of 2023 by many European politicians, and then disappeared from the vocabulary of European officials. This roughly coincided with the defeat of the so-called Ukrainian offensive last summer.

Well, we knew that European elite are lying sacks of shit, all of them:

EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell, during a visit to Ukraine on April 8 and 9, received from her a list of weapons, the supply of which he intends to discuss with the EU Military Committee. Borrell plans to convene the committee in the coming days, he said in an interview with Corriere della Sera. According to the head of EU diplomacy, Ukraine needs to provide what it needs. The delivery of weapons must be accelerated, as they are critical in the outcome of the conflict. Borrell had previously posted on social media that the war must be won on the battlefield, 360tv reports.

But now we also know that they are cowards and supporters of terrorism. Thanks to internet it is difficult to cover up own tracks even if for brainwashed Western public.

Speaking Of Operations Research.

Josep Borrell does have degree in it--Applied Mathematics from Stanford no less. But a collection of complex degrees still does not guarantee a moron from being a moron. Borrell is a moron and him repeating late nutjob John McCain's "truism" about Russia being a gas station shows what kind of human material is pushed to the top in EU.

The Russian economy is small compared to the other major geopolitical players, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said in an interview with the El Pais news outlet published on Saturday. Speaking about relations between the EU and China, Borrell suggested that Beijing, unlike Moscow, is a “real geopolitical player” which should not be underestimated or isolated. Russia, on the other hand, is too weak in economic terms due to its dependency on energy exports, he alleged. “Russia is an economic dwarf, it is like a gas station whose owner has an atomic bomb,” Borrell stated.

I guess explaining to this Catalan cretin that Moscow and oblast combined alone have a larger economy than that of Spain will be the waste of time, but at least Russia has energy, right? This aeronautical "engineer" obviously never learned what modern extraction is and what amount of real hi-tech goes into it. But his quip is a combination of the EU required stupidity and frustration growing inside the ranks of EU's bureaucracy. No worry, Mr. Borrell--you, same as organization you represent, are America's lunch, so, keep parading yourself as the idiot you are--the only type fit for running EU (into the ground), others need not apply. Even if they have two degrees in Operational Research.

Any Human Language?

Last time I checked, Russia's official language, Russian, is a human language. That means you can  translate it, learn it, use it and comprehend it on this planet of ours. That is what usually assumed by Russians, especially at the top political level, which is a level of Russia's President or Minister of Foreign Affairs. Top shelf interpreters work there and they bear personal responsibility for precision with which words from and to Russian officials are translated. Well, EU "diplomacy" (I have no idea what is this) and "elites" evidently have issues with understanding a rather important human language, such as Russian, since they still do not get the message. When Russia's President tells them directly that: "... love is impossible if it is declared only by one side. It must be mutual", he expects EU to understand that he, being highly cultured and well-behaved statesman, is telling EU to go fuck itself until their attitude changes. OK, that's Putin. Sergei Viktorovich Lavrov, however, is a man who can turn the heat up a notch and that is why his famous meme is... well, famous. 

EU's high commissioner for whatever passes there for diplomacy, Josep Borrell, is in Moscow now, expressing his worries about:

The EU's foreign affairs chief has said relations with Russia are at their lowest level because of Alexei Navalny's poisoning and subsequent imprisonment. Josep Borrell was speaking during a three-day visit to Moscow ahead of talks with the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, who said he was ready to discuss "any topic".

Well, he got his audience with Lavrov who, basically, repeated what Putin said but in a more direct form. Speaking about EU as non-agreement capable, Lavrov stated:

"Поэтому мы свою жизнь выстраиваем, исходя из того, что Евросоюз является ненадежным партнером, по крайней мере на данном этапе."

Translation: because of that, we build our life out of consideration that EU is not reliable partner, at least at this stage. 

After that Russia declared persons non-Grata and kicked out three diplomats from Poland, Sweden and Germany, who were especially active in fomenting trouble inside Russia around Navalny. I don't know in what language should Russia talk to EU for EU to understand that, as Lavrov stated, Russia doesn't really care about EU's internal decisions and nobody in Moscow, in reality, gives a shit how Borrell "assesses" EU-Russia's relations. Who knows, maybe Lavrov has to go to 11 and openly state to these cretins that they should go and fuck themselves, literally. Evidently they still don't get the message. EU does not have a subjectivity in international relations, it is an object which is there to dance to Washington's tune. Russians are fully aware of that and that is why Russia is turning away from EU. Including being somewhat reluctant, for now, to let go of Nord Stream 2 for purely geopolitical, not economic reasons as Ischenko thinks, a view which I share. I also completely agree with his assessment, that abandoning NS 2 for Russia is merely an inconvenience, for Germany--it is a catastrophe.  In what language, then, do you communicate with a bunch of cretins? Obviously, they do not understand human language. 

To underscore the absence of intelligent life in EU, I will leave this link (in Russian) and you can easily translate TASS reporting using Google translate tool. They don't even understand that most of Russia laughs at them. As you can see from this EU graph, the trend in economic relations was pronounced already by 2019. Russia simply started importing less from EU. 

Even when adjusted for Covid-19, it is clear that imports from EU to Russia will continue to decline in mid to long-term. As some people in Russia suggest: what about trading Navalny for Assange? That could be a really good deal, especially since politically Navalny is dead, especially after his disgraceful behavior in court today, while his "org" was effectively dismantled and there are many sad people in MI-6 and CIA today because of that. As strategic truism states, don't try to make strong plays with a weak hand. But then again, do they even understand a human language, any human language. 
 
ADDENDUM: What is wrong with these people? 
President Joe Biden has dusted off an old story about how he came under fire while visiting Iraq, more than a decade after he admitted the claim was somewhat exaggerated. ‘Where’s the MSM outrage?’ social media users have asked.While addressing US State Department staff on Thursday, Biden hailed the diplomats for showing “great personal courage,” which the new US president has purportedly seen first-hand. "I’ve been with some of you when we’ve been shot at," he told the audience. It’s unclear what Biden meant by the passing remark, and the White House has not elaborated on the statement.
What's the deal here with stolen valor pandemic of which I wrote before. It is becoming nauseating with US politicians telling fairy tales of their "courage under fire".

Once in a blue moon an indispensable book comes out making a clear case for sanity in what is now a post-MAD world. That’s the responsibility carried by “The (Real) Revolution in Military Affairs,” by Andrei Martyanov (Clarity Press), arguably the most important book of 2019.

Saker's Review.
The above summary does not do justice to Martyanov’s truly seminal book. I can only say that I consider this book as an absolutely indispensable “must read” for every person in the USA who loves his/her country and for every person who believes that wars, especially nuclear ones, must be avoided at all costs.

Asia Times About The Book

Asia Times About The Book
In Losing Military Supremacy, his latest, groundbreaking book, crack Russian military-naval analyst Andrei Martyanov deconstructs in detail how, “the United States faces two nuclear and industrial superpowers, one of which fields a world-class armed forces. If the military-political, as opposed to merely economic, alliance between Russia and China is ever formalized – this will spell the final doom for the United States as a global power.”
