"India will pay about $2 billion to lease a nuclear-powered submarine [Project 971 K-391 Bratsk] from Russia, according to people familiar with the matter, finalizing delivery of the vessel after roughly a decade of talks just as President Vladimir Putin makes a visit to New Delhi this week.

Talks for leasing the attack submarine from Russia had stalled over the years because of price negotiations, the people said, asking not to be identified because the discussions are private. The two sides have now agreed on the deal, with Indian officials visiting a Russian shipyard in November, they said. India expects to take delivery of the vessel within two years, although the complexity of the project means it could be later, they said."

RT @BohdanKrotevych: You know, I was born in 1993 — in an independent Ukraine.
Yet post-Soviet propaganda lived in our schools for a long time. We studied a triumphant, simplified, often fabricated history of the Soviet Union — a history in which the “side of the USSR” was automatically considered right and the only truth.
Everything that did not fit this narrative was either silenced or presented in a distorted way.
As I grew older and began to see the logical gaps in school textbooks, I started studying history on my own — not through official propaganda, but through the memoirs of people from different countries, different armies, and different ideologies.
For example, I only learned at 19, studying independently, that the USSR invaded Poland after Hitler. Yet only today, preparing this text and re-checking the facts, I discovered that it was actually a coordinated division of Poland between Hitler and Stalin, formalized in the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact and its secret protocols.
This means it is never too late to learn.

The Prime Minister of Belgium, @Bart_DeWever , was born in 1970.
By age and by office, he should know a little more than I do.
But I will allow myself to remind him of a few lessons from history — because they seem to be slipping from his rhetoric, whether due to fear or simple misunderstanding.

On the eve of the Second World War, Belgium — much like today — tried to remain neutral.
It believed that restraint and the desire not to “provoke” an aggressor would protect it from war.
But history knows no case in which fear stopped a rapist or a murderer.
On May 10, 1940, Hitler invaded anyway. Belgium fell in 18 days.
During the German breakthrough through Belgium toward France, approximately 6,093 Belgian soldiers were killed, and another 2,000 died in captivity.
The price of the illusion of safety turned out to be devastating.
In total, Belgium lost around 88,000 people during the Second World War — soldiers, civilians, victims of the Holocaust, repression, bombings, and forced labor.

After capitulation, the Belgian army was sent to prisoner-of-war camps.
And although it may sound strange, even Nazi Germany in many cases adhered to international rules concerning Western prisoners — unlike the USSR and unlike modern-day russia.
At the same time, German propaganda worked relentlessly. The Nazis managed to recruit 15,000–20,000 Belgian volunteers into the Flemish and Walloon SS divisions.
This is a telling number: occupation, fear, and propaganda always break a part of society — exactly as russia does today in the occupied territories of Ukraine.
So did fear and neutrality — the desire not to provoke the aggressor — save Belgium then? The question is rhetorical.

Now — to Prime Minister De Wever’s statements about russia

When Belgium says today that it fears confiscating russian assets because of the threat of retaliation from moscow — this is not just concern.
This is a repetition of the same logic that once opened the door to the Nazi blitzkrieg.
The rhetoric and behavior of the Belgian Prime Minister demonstrate not only the caution of a small state facing a large threat — they reveal a deeper problem.
His words reflect the mindset of someone who:

• does not believe in his own security,
• does not trust the strength of allies,
• is not convinced that Europe and NATO can protect him from an aggressor.
This is classic victim psychology:
fear paralyzes more than the threat itself, risks are exaggerated, one’s own capabilities are underestimated, and the aggressor gains influence simply from the fact of your fear.
And the main problem is not even that Belgium is afraid.
The problem is that it fears russia more than it trusts Europe and NATO.

Fear has never saved anyone from a killer.
Submission has never saved anyone from a rapist.
Appeasement has never stopped an aggressor — it only makes him bolder and whets his appetite.

Therefore, Belgium’s position is not just disagreement with the confiscation of russian assets.
It is a symptom of a crisis of Western...

HIMES: “what I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I’ve seen in my time in public service...you have two individuals and clear distress, without any means of locomotion, with a destroyed vessel, were killed by the United States.”

RT @Teoyaomiquu: In this critical moment donations have completely stopped, and the fundraiser to help Ukraine with engineering equipment is stuck at $100,500/$120,000.

I'm asking you to support by reposting, hitting like, donating and commenting

While so-called USA diplomats work on partitioning Ukraine the war doesn't stop. and our defenders need your help.

Ukraine is making russia pay for every kilometer they move. It's the battlefield where the outcome of the war is decided. Negotiations and diplomacy mean nothing if we are losing on the battlefield

this video is an everyday work of the 92nd brigade 1st assault battalion. They are making russia pay, for every step while countries like Belgium take russian bribes and blood money.
