2/3 It was also critical to hear that the EU is partnering Ukraine for an air defence system to protect the continent. Development of "Freya" is already well underway and EU cooperation will really help.

1/3 Today @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu made the State of the EU address; it was very important for Ukraine. I sat through all 90 mins to pick out relevant points. Firstly an admission the response to hybrid warfare is not fit for purpose and Ukraine will be in a new security council.

In short, the Russian backed International Boxing Association is financed by Gazprom. In turn, the IBA invested in a Russian cryptocurrency, which then deposited funds into Trump controlled World Liberty Financial. This money is then converted into a cryptocurrency controlled by Trump.

Muscovy's actions through the decades follow well-used patterns, which I call the Russian Blueprint. This Russian Blueprint is also described in my Handbook. See the Six Case Studies: tny.lv/iZIH0

Look for the arrows to page through. This is the 1954 interim report. I don't believe that Google or anyone else scanned the 1972 derivative report (or I haven't found it yet).

t's worth to remind people why the US Congress Kersten committee reports are valuable. The 1000s of pages of >15 reports includes interviews with 100s of eyewitnesses who brought proofs. This is the gold standard of proofs of Muscovy crimes. hwt.lv/background

This morning I went looking for the 1985 Copenhagen Tribunal of the Baltic Countries against the USSR. This is the trial that determined that the USSR committed genocide. It seems that the Page/Report moved AGAIN. So It's best to use Wayback Machine. web.archive.org/web/20260807...

The manuscript barely survived. Decades in storage left the paper cracked, torn, and in places unreadable. Some sections are simply gone. Starting today: two manuscript pages a day, for two weeks. Two handwritten pages + best-effort transcription/translation.

The result — "Sensācija" ("Sensation") — is a satire about a heavyweight wrestler transformed into the season's great new opera sensation, and the critics and manufactured hype around him. Sharp, very funny, and clearly personal underneath.

He used it to process a lifetime of being reclassified by other people's moldings: soldier, prisoner, refugee. And he used it to hand his fellow refugees something to laugh at, in the same way he'd once handed his fellow Siberian exiles, an orchestra.

While writing this comedy, it appears that he reached for the one identity that had never betrayed him: music, and his own hard-earned expertise within it.

He'd been a soldier, an engineer, a revolutionary, a teacher, and, through all of it, a trained opera singer, with 306 performances at the Liepāja Opera behind him.

By then he was sixty-five years old, and stateless for the second time in his life. He'd already survived Siberian exile, the Russian Revolution, two World Wars, two occupations, and the loss of his beloved Latvija.

A UK P8 maritime patrol aircraft spent 6 hours finecombing SW Baltic Sea for enemy units, above and below surface, before command would let the ship ARK GERMANIA leave Køge port for a transport of military units across Baltic Sea. Another P8 covering ahead. Says something about threat level, innit?
