Cuba was an american puppet state at the time the deal was made. My dear America and Cuba aint friends even today, NOW GET THAT INTO YOUR SKULL.
So just like Ukraine, Cuba should invite Russia and China and take back Guantanamo.

⚔Yemen's Houthis test-fired hypersonic missile, says military source.

Yemen's Ansar Allah movement, also known as the Houthis, has carried out a test flight of a hypersonic missile with high destructive capability and is preparing to add these missiles to its military arsenal, a military source close to the movement has told Sputnik.

"Missile forces of the movement have successfully tested a missile that can reach speeds of up to Mach 8 [10,000 kilometers per hour or 6,200 miles per hour] and is powered by solid fuel. Yemen plans to begin manufacturing it for use in attacks in the Red and Arabian Seas and the Gulf of Aden, as well as against targets in Israel," the source said.

At the same time as the hypersonic missile test, the armed forces in northern Yemen upgraded their missiles and drones, having modified the explosive warheads to double their destructive power, after a test that lasted three months, the source added.
Good news.

Ukraine is moving forward with plans to build two new naval bases in the Black Sea region, an area of tension with Russia that may see greater U.S. military and NATO involvement this year.

One base will be built along the Black Sea and the other in the Sea of Azov, a linked waterway that has been a flashpoint between Russia and Ukraine, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said at NATO headquarters in Brussels on Tuesday.

The United Kingdom is ā€œhelping us financiallyā€ and work on the projects will begin soon, Shmyhal said.

⚔Ukraine's military planning takeover of Ukrainian parliament in Kiev by force

The Ukrainian military, dissatisfied with the policy of the country's leadership, is planning the takeover of the Verkhovna Rada, the Ukrainian parliament, in Kiev and attracting other Ukrainian armed forces' military personnel to their side, a correspondence on a closed resource obtained by Russian specialists has shown.

"The most important action that we will need to pull off lightning fast is the takeover of the VR [Verkhovna Rada] at a certain point," one of the chat participants wrote.

"When the staff is recruited, fighters are trained, the mass will be ready," another chat participant said.

"There must be support from the military. Without it, nothing will work. The main driving force. [They] will say from the trenches that [they are] with us, and people will follow," one more chat participant said.


"Especially when the people see that the military is at the helm and the rest of the military is following them - they automatically take the right side," another chat participant added.

⚔Since 2022, the European Union has been slapping sanctions on energy supplies from Russia. Before the barrage of sanctions was imposed, the 27 countries of the EU purchased an average of $102.5 billion worth of hydrocarbons from Russia annually, but this figure plummeted to $31.6 billion last year.

Despite this, the increase in exports to friendly nations has more than made up for it. In total, exports to just six countries – Turkiye, China, India, Brazil, Indonesia, and Malaysia – reached $186.7 billion last year, compared to an average of $59.9 billion between 2019 and 2021.

Thus, Russia earned an additional $126.8 billion from these destinations, which is $56 billion more than from its deliveries to the European Union.

⚔The US Government collected $271 billion in February, but spent $567 billion. This means that America is spending twice as much as it earns, according to the US Treasury Department.

The cost of servicing the US national debt has already exceeded $1 trillion on an annual basis, and the country issues $1 trillion worth of Treasury bonds every 100 days to keep the government running.

⚔Moldova not seeking NATO membership due to low public support, Moldova's Foreign Minister Mihai Popsoi said

"As for cooperation with NATO or some kind of NATO membership, it is out of the question at the moment because there is not enough public support for it," Popsoi said in an interview with the RTVI broadcaster.

Moldova's neutrality means it cannot join any military alliances, but does not prevent it from cooperating at the political level even in the security sphere, the minister said.

Most of Moldovans have a negative perception of NATO, so the issue should be brought to a broad discussion, Popsoi said.

"We need to have a open public debate about the pros and cons and decide through this democratic process. But it will be a more long-term prospect. At the moment, there are no discussions about joining [NATO] or any closer cooperation other than what we have had so far," the minister said.

I love ignorant people like you. I love more the fact that you guys are also not willing to know the truth about china. 1, china economy is in a mess. Growth rate will not change that. 2. Gdp /per capital has quadrupled. Lmao stop playing. The same gdp per capital that is around a mere 16k or so and is the same with the likes of the philiphines vietnam india. Despite all the claims of china advancement. Is that not shameful. 3. Infastructure? You mean the tofu dreg constructions millions of unoccupied housing units, unprofitable high speed rail. Exploding . E. Vs .4. 5% gdp growth you are dumb to believe that the same gdp figure that was rivised after their netizens called them out about how the data does not tally with previous year. ONLY A FOOL LIKE YOU WILL BELIEVE CHINA GDP FIGURES. AS IT WAS STATE BY FORMER CHINAS PREMIER LI QI CHANG OR SO THAT THE FIGURES ARE ALWAYS MADE UP.(oh e shock you? Try to make findings). Ignoramus
petesunday:
Hmm. I think you need to read your favourite western media very well. China's economic growth is so rapid that a slow down in growth rate will still beat the growth rate of most western economies. Per capital income has quadrupled in the last 15 years. Infrastructure is also keeping up. In comparison, US Infrastructure continues to decline with rats in subways and Streets filled with druggies.

China last year narrowly beat its economic growth target of 5 percent, one of its lowest benchmarks in decades. In comparison, the commerce department reported on Thursday that US gross domestic product (GDP) – a broad measure of economic health – grew at an annualized rate of 3.3% in the final quarter of the year, down from 4.9% in the previous quarter.

It's been widely accepted that most Nazis who fled Germany after World War Two fled to South America, mainly to Argentina and Paraguay, and even Venezuela. But what many don’t realize, and it’s a verifiable fact, is that many of the worst Nazis who were senior members of the SS and Eichmann henchmen fled to and lived in the Middle East, bringing the Nazi ideologies and their hatred of Jews to the region where they ingrained their hatred into local society. Alois Brunner is one such famous one. He fled to Damascus in Syria and became an adviser to the Assad regime. Another I’ve mentioned before was Johannes von Leers, a close aide to Goebbels, who initially fled to Brazil before moving to Egypt. In Egypt, he changed his name to Omar Amin, converted to Islam, and became Minister of Education where he created the curriculum for all schools teaching kids about the evil Jews and Zionists and indoctrinating generations of hatred during the Sadat era. In fact, thousands of Nazis relocated to the Middle East, mostly in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and even the British Mandate of Palestine where they worked with the local Arabs to kill the Jews in the region. Many Nazis were advisors to the Arab countries who waged war against fledgling Israel in 1948. So when you hear Israelis calling Hamas and other terrorists in the region Nazis, it’s because they actually are. The Nazis who fled to the Middle East were welcomed as the Arabs had already established strong relations during the Hitler regime and they shared the common goal of exterminating all the Jews. One last interesting little titbit… dozens of senior Nazis who fled Germany had their names changed by various governments sympathetic to them, and ended up joining a new organization shortly after the war. That organization was… the United Nations. Interesting how things begin to fall into place when you actually understand and research history. ~ Cheryl E

I think more of Russia transferred it to Iran then with Russia permission, the Iranian gave the Houthi’s because Russian and Israeli relationship is very complicated, so Russia will act like they don’t know how Houthi military get those technology unlike case of North Korea that was so obvious that Russia military transferred technology to NK military.
