Firstly, this ridiculous counter-attack has been stopped already by the Russian forces. Ukrainians and foreign mercenaries have been destroyed almost completely (1000+ dead). Russian army are liberating remaining villages captured previously by Ukrainian occupiers. It's already clear that this pathetic offensive won't reach the Kursk nuclear powerplant neither will it reach the city of Kursk.
Now let’s discuss the scale of the Ukrainian offensive on Russian territory in the Kursk region. The acting governor of the Kursk region, Smirnov, at a meeting with Putin’s participation, said today that 28 settlements in the region are under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. At the same time, the DeepState project names a significantly larger number - 44 settlements and about ten more are located in the so-called “gray zone”. As for the territory, Smirnov indicated that the penetration of Ukrainian troops into the territory of the Kursk region is 12 kilometers, width - 40 km. That is, the Ukrainian Armed Forces now control approximately 480 square kilometers of the Kursk region of Russia. https://unn.ua/ru/news/v-rf-zayavili-chto-ukraina-yakobi-kontroliruet-28-naselennikh-punktov-v-kurskoi-oblastihttps://hromadske.ua/ru/voyna/229370-putinu-dolozhili-o-28-naselennyh-punktah-pod-kontrolem-vsu-v-deepstate-drugie-dannyeToday, for the first time, the Ukrainian authorities commented on the offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. At a meeting of the headquarters of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of Ukraine, Commander-in-Chief Syrsky reported to the president that about 1,000 square kilometers of the territory of the Russian Federation are under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. https://meduza.io/news/2024/08/12/glavkom-vsu-zayavil-chto-ukrainskaya-armiya-kontroliruet-okolo-1000-kvadratnyh-kilometrov-territorii-rfIt is not yet known whether the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been given the task of “liberating” the Russian regional center of Kursk and the nuclear power plant near it in the city of Kurchatov. Let's see how events develop further. |

Finally from the perspective of third parties who aren't on either side of this war, we should all be worried because there is a certain stupidity involved in this operation NATO designed that inches us closer to a nuclear war. If what the analysts are saying comes true and Ukrainians manage to take over the nearby Russian nuclear facility and pose a "nuclear threat" to Russia, that could be be used as an excuse for Russia to also "pose a nuclear threat" to Ukraine. It's the same logic as "cluster munition" and a lot of other things. Russia started using cluster munition after US deployed this type in Ukraine.
Things could rapidly escalate to worsen the situation if those facilities are damaged, whether intentionally or unintentionally. The nuclear explosion inside Russian soil would only give Russia the legitimacy to strike Ukraine using nuclear weapons... That's not something anybody wants.
The “special military operation” that Ukraine is conducting this time on Russian territory was definitely not developed by NATO. Such a bold operation in conditions of numerical superiority of the invaders in almost everything is not for their overly cautious brains. NATO does not develop long-term ground operations unless they have air superiority. Only the Ukrainian Armed Forces are capable of this. Therefore, NATO stated that they were not informed by the Ukrainian side about the planning of an attack on the Kursk region of Russia. When it comes to the threat to nuclear security, it is not the Ukrainians that the world needs to fear. What you are warning about has already been happening since March 2022, when Russian occupation forces seized the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, and periodically carry out provocative actions there that could really end in another nuclear disaster. So, yesterday, on August 11, the occupiers intentionally or through negligence started a fire at this nuclear power plant, which seems to have been extinguished by now. The fire occurred at a technical water supply facility. As a result, cooling tower No. 1 caught fire and other process equipment was damaged. https://forbes.ua/ru/news/pozhezha-na-teritorii-zaporizkoi-aes-pripinilasya-12082024-22946Russian occupiers like to show that they are not predictable in their actions and behave like a Mavpa with a grenade. By retreating, they may well provoke another environmental disaster, following the example of the one they did with the Kakhovka hydroelectric station, blowing it up from the inside and causing unprecedented flooding of the Ukrainian region. The Ukrainian command has not yet commented on the goals and scale of its offensive in the Kursk region. Therefore, it is not yet known whether the Ukrainian Armed Forces are going to take control of the Kurskaya nuclear power plant, which is already located several tens of kilometers from the advanced units of the advancing Ukrainian troops in the city of Kurchatov. In my opinion, and this is now being actively discussed on social networks, it would be nice for the Ukrainian Armed Forces to take possession of this nuclear power plant and then exchange it for the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant of Ukraine in order to prevent a major catastrophe on it in the future from the retreating Russian occupiers. |

Firstly, this ridiculous counter-attack has been stopped already by the Russian forces. Ukrainians and foreign mercenaries have been destroyed almost completely (1000+ dead). Russian army are liberating remaining villages captured previously by Ukrainian occupiers. It's already clear that this pathetic offensive won't reach the Kursk nuclear powerplant neither will it reach the city of Kursk. The reason for this useless waste of troops and armored vehicles? Most probably Ukraine is trying to strengthen their positions before the rumored peace talks as well as to slow down Russian advances in the East. But, there's also another side to this incident, obscure to retarded Ukrainian trolls like yourself: Belarus, which is in a military alliance with Russia is now obliged to assist Russia militarily. It's almost 70k men strong army is ready to attack anywhere along the Belarus/Ukraine border (Kiev is only 260km away from the Belarussian border btw). You probably suck at chess, my little friend: you can't see beyond the end of your nose.  Well, let’s see how alive the Collective Security Treaty is, of which the Russian Federation and Belarus are members. Lukashenko is not such an idiot as he seems at first glance. He was confident that Russia would quickly capture Ukraine after the invasion in February 2022 and therefore provided his territory to Russian troops to attack Kyiv. But after the Russian occupiers were driven out of central and northern Ukraine in April, Russia failed to persuade Lukashenko to launch a direct attack on Ukraine. Lukashenko will never give the order for his troops to invade Ukraine, because it would be fatal for his regime and he understands this. And not only because his 70,000-strong army will be immediately defeated, but because most likely a significant part of the Belarusian troops will go over to the side of Ukraine. The people of Belarus do not consider Ukrainians their enemies and after the overthrow of dictator Lukashenko, friendly relations will be resumed between these states. Now, at the request of Russia, Lukashenko is trying to increase tension on the border with Ukraine so that Ukraine is forced to keep part of its troops near the border of Belarus and not transfer them to the Kursk region of Russia. Lukashenko will not agree to anything more. And the offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region of Russia continues. In just a few days, the Ukrainian Armed Forces “liberated” more territory than Russia did during the entire period of the offensive on the Kharkov region from May 10th. |

What, exactly, are the Russian military doing on Syrian territory? This is so far from their own borders.
A better question is why does Ukraine help the terrorist groups in another sovereign nation far away from its own borders? It is worth recalling the words of the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine Budanov that Russian war criminals will receive fair punishment in different parts of the world, wherever they are. And now we are seeing it live. Ukraine cooperating with Terrorists organizations like Al-Qauida and ISIS in another sovereign nation called Syria that is destabilizing that country and the entire region has nothing to do with "punishing Russia". It is an act of terrorism and an attack on Syria, regardless of how Ukrainian officials want to cover it up. And Ukraine also committed a “large-scale provocation,” as Putin called it at yesterday’s meeting of the Russian Security Council, by attacking defenseless Russians in the Kursk region. While Russia threw all its forces into conquering the territory of Ukraine, its own territory turned out to be completely defenseless. Russia itself has always attacked its neighbors and no one has ever attacked its territory, and therefore they were confident in complete impunity for their aggression. On the morning of August 6, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with the support of artillery and air defense, attacked the Kursk region of Russia with their armored units and it turned out that this was a complete surprise for the Russian Federation, and therefore immediately broke through the weak line of defense of the Russian conscripts, who had neither tanks nor artillery, and two days “liberated” the territory of the future Kursk People’s Republic with an area of approximately 430 square kilometers, including the strategically important city of Sudzhi for the Russian Federation. https://www.dialog.ua/war/299561_1723118290Within 2 days, the Ukrainian Armed Forces took control of a significantly larger territory in the Kursk region than Russian troops did in three months in the Kharkov region of Ukraine. Russian military propagandists are sounding the alarm and claiming that the Ukrainian army may capture the city of Kurchatov, where the Kursk nuclear power plant is located. The Russian Telegram channel "VChK-OGPU" emphasizes that fighting is already taking place in Anastasyevka, which is located 40 km north of Sudzha. According to incoming information from the Russians, the Ukrainian Armed Forces can go to Lgov and then enter directly into Kurchatov. Therefore, Ukraine can commit a “terrorist act” to seize the Kursk nuclear power plant and then try to exchange it for the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant seized by the Russians, where Russia in any case would try to arrange a nuclear disaster following the example of the Kakhovka hydroelectric station. According to the Russians themselves, the Kursk nuclear power plant is now guarded by the Russian Guard, where only women remain; the men have long been transferred to the Ukrainian front. Probably, trying to hide inconvenient information, the Russian authorities did not come up with anything better than to completely turn off YouTube channels throughout the country at this critical time for them. The population of the Kursk region is already in complete panic, trying to independently evacuate from the combat zone, and without information about the rapidly changing situation of military operations this will be much more difficult. https://www.dialog.ua/blogs/299555_1723111403https://www.dialog.ua/russia/299556_1723111477 |

If crypto was centralized, it would've been an entirely different story. The West would've been able to cripple down Russia's operations with ease. But that's not case, leaving us wonder how long will Ukraine be able to resist Russia. I fear the war is coming to an end (but not in a good way). All eyes are in the US' upcoming elections in November. Whoever wins, will determine the future of both Russia and Ukraine. Lets hope for the best.
Now in Russia’s war against Ukraine, grandiose, stunning events are taking place that could end disastrously for Russia. Russia threw all its available forces into capturing Ukraine, while its own territory remained virtually unprotected. Ukraine took full advantage of this. On the morning of August 6, units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces powerfully attacked the Kursk region in the direction of the city of Sudzhi, where there is a gas distribution station through which gas from Russia goes to Europe, a large railway line through which Russia supplied its troops in eastern Ukraine and where the Russian planning headquarters was located one offensive in northern Ukraine in the direction of the Ukrainian city of Sumy. The Armed Forces of Ukraine immediately broke through the existing two lines of defense of the Russians and in these two days captured the territory of the Kursk region of 430 square kilometers, going several tens of kilometers deep into Russia on a wide front, including “liberating” the city of Sudzhi. https://www.dialog.ua/war/299561_1723118290Russian military propagandists are sounding the alarm and declaring that the Ukrainian army is implementing a large-scale maneuver, the purpose of which is to reach the city of Kurchatov, where the Kursk nuclear power plant is located. The Russian Telegram channel "VChK-OGPU" emphasizes that fighting is already taking place in Anastasyevka, which is located 40 km north of Sudzha. According to incoming information from the Russians, the Ukrainian Armed Forces can go to Lgov and then enter directly into Kurchatov. Putin just yesterday convened the Russian Security Council on this matter, where he called Ukraine’s actions a large-scale provocation and ordered the Ministry of Defense to take measures. But there are practically no reserves in Russia anymore. They are forced to withdraw their troops from the Kharkov direction, where since May 10 Russia has been unsuccessfully trying to attack the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but are stuck in the border Volchansk. There are already several hundred Russian prisoners. Yesterday, Z-bloggers wrote about the heroic border guards who bravely stood to the end, but today a full video of the surrender appeared, where it can be seen that the Russians themselves came out with a white flag and surrendered en masse without much resistance. https://www.dialog.ua/war/299562_1723119135In the Kursk region, there is panic among the civilian population, who hastily evacuate on their own, without the help of the Russian government, and are often caught in the crossfire. The Russian authorities have not come up with anything better than to completely turn off YouTube channels throughout the country at this critical time for them. https://www.dialog.ua/blogs/299555_1723111403 |

Yes, of course, no one can beat the creator of robots created by human hands and of course he will not be able to surpass human capacity, those who say that robots will take over humans are people who do not want to spend money to pay humans and they take advantage of that, human genius cannot be defeated by robots there will be many loopholes that can be used by humans to defeat robots, so I agree with you that robots are below humans.
Because basically robots are just iron that does not have reason and humans have it to think and try so in that aspect it is clear that robots are lower than humans.
So not all jobs can be replaced by robots as Elon Musk said.
If we treat AI only as hardware that is incapable of improving, then humanity will be doomed to destruction from this AI. A law on artificial intelligence has come into force in the EU, which is called the first such regulatory document in the world, which will hopefully serve as a first step in regulating robotics. It is noted that the law on artificial intelligence must guarantee the safety and respect for the fundamental rights of citizens in the process of developing artificial intelligence technologies. The law stipulates that users must be clearly warned when interacting with chatbots rather than a live person, and label content generated by artificial intelligence. AI systems that are identified as risky will be required to follow additional rules and provide human oversight of the AI's "decisions." We are talking, in particular, about the use of technology in recruiting, assessing the possibility of providing a loan, etc. There is also a ban on AI systems that pose a threat to fundamental rights, including those that can be used to manipulate behavior, or allow the creation of a “social rating” by government agencies or companies. The document stipulates that, by August 2, 2025, member countries must identify a body in the national system that will oversee compliance with this legislation. At the EU level, this will be the AI Office, as well as three advisory bodies - the European Artificial Intelligence Board, a council of independent experts that can send signals about observed risks, as well as an advisory forum including a wide range of stakeholders. Fines for companies for ignoring legal requirements can reach 7% of global annual turnover, for providing inaccurate information - up to 1.5%. Most rules will apply from August 2, 2026, with a ban on AI systems considered an unacceptable risk six months later. Rules for so-called general purpose AI models will begin to apply in 12 months. |

I think it is difficult to advance renewable energy at the moment, by encouraging its development it is hoped that management will be more independent, but the target will be difficult to achieve because it requires good technological progress
and it has been tested because the energy needs of users are now increasing, because in the development of renewable energy there are many obstacles faced such as limited infrastructure and limited technical expertise, because things like that require careful consideration but over time has changed this little by little but I believe In the future, all of this will definitely come true, even though it will take time to achieve all of that.
The transition to the use of alternative energy sources is truly the call of the time and our inevitable future. Now almost all states are either developing new sources of energy consumption or are trying to implement existing developments. Humanity is being pushed towards this process by a decrease in fossil fuel reserves and dramatic climate change as a result of the traditional use of coal, gas and petroleum products as a fuel and source of energy. Previously, gas and oil corporations sharply opposed the process of searching and introducing alternative energy sources, physically eliminating inventors and destroying their inventions, but now the situation has reached a new level that can no longer be stopped. Particularly interesting in this regard are the developments of Japanese, French and scientists from other countries on the practical application of the process of nuclear fusion as an energy source, that is, a chemical reaction that occurs in all the stars of our universe - a process during which two light atomic nuclei combine into one more a heavy core releasing enormous amounts of energy. Almost such artificial suns may appear in the next decade. This is even mentioned in the prophecies of the Bulgarian soothsayer Vanga, who predicted that people would launch several such artificial suns into low Earth orbit, which would evenly illuminate our planet all day long. |

The Fastest Way To Stop All The Current World Conflicts Is Investing In My New Currency Idea
How to make the Russia, Israel stop war within 24 hours?
All you need to do is show them my brand new global currency model/paradigm idea then threating them (those nations) of either stop war immediately within 24 hours or not allow to receive the using license/permission !
You do not reveal the essence of your idea about a new financial system and a new currency, and therefore it is quite difficult to judge all this. I can only say that human civilization has existed for more than one millennium, and all this time people have been looking for an ideal financial system that would satisfy all claims regarding currency and its circulation in society. We have had a fiat system for a long time, and recently cryptocurrency has been added to it and this indicates the theoretical possibility that alternative financial systems may exist. But you need to outline the essence of your idea, at least in general terms, otherwise it is unlikely that influential persons or relevant state bodies will be interested in it. And your opinion that allowing you to use your new financial system can stop such global wars as Russia’s war in Ukraine looks completely ridiculous. Putin and other crazy rulers have their own idea of the world order and ways to influence them. |

Besides, certain things will never be given to Ukraine considering how a large number of those weapons are being sold on blackmarkets... So when you say "weapons nobody has received aboard" there's a reason for that (they don't want it to fall into the hands of the adversaries). If they send those to Ukraine, in a short time they will Russia deliberately spreads false information that Ukraine sells weapons on the black market that are supplied to it by European countries and the United States. This is being done to ensure that weapons are not transferred to Ukraine to defend against a Russian attack, or at least to reduce the assistance provided. Thus, the former head of the Russian Ministry of Defense, Shoigu, without providing any evidence, stated that weapons from Ukraine end up on the black market and are distributed in Western Asian countries. Earlier, Pentagon Speaker Patrick Ryder noted that the United States does not have any reliable information that Ukraine is reselling Western weapons. The US Department of Defense has repeatedly stated that it sees no signs that Western weapons are being misused: “We do not track weapons. We know that the Ukrainians are using the weapons we provided to them, and we have seen no indication that these weapons have gone anywhere other than to fight the Russians." EU Foreign and Security Policy Speaker Peter Stano noted back in July 2022 that information about Ukraine’s alleged resale of Western weapons is Russian propaganda. According to him, Russia is waging a disinformation campaign against Ukraine, the EU and NATO to justify its crimes, mislead people around the world and manipulate facts. Previously, disinformation was also spread about the alleged smuggling of weapons from Ukraine to Finland. However, in response to the Ukrainian embassy in Helsinki, the Finnish police reported that they did not have confirmed information about the supply of smuggled weapons from Ukraine. Russian media massively disseminated fake news that users from Ukraine are reselling weapons on the darknet. BBC journalists investigated and found that the advertisements were false. https://voxukraine.org/ru/bezosnovatelno-zapadnoe-oruzhye-yz-ukrayny-popadaet-v-terrorystycheskye-organyzatsyyIf you have facts that Ukraine sells Western weapons supplied to it on the black market, bring them and we’ll discuss it. |

What is your take? What role can cryptocurrencies play in helping Russia sanctions evasion and to what extent can this be?
You can see today that the Western sanction has almost no effect on Russia anymore. The world is evolving and cryptocurrency is the latest development around financial dealings, so all fingers are pointing to it in helping Russia to lessen the effect of the sanction. After US sanctions were imposed on the Moscow Exchange, it actually turned into an “exchange office”, where the Chinese yuan became the only key currency. According to the Central Bank of Russia, the yuan now accounts for 99.6% of the exchange currency market. The remaining 0.4% comes from “friendly” currencies such as the Belarusian ruble and the Kazakh tenge. Now the Central Bank calculates official exchange rates thanks to transactions that banks conduct among themselves outside the exchange. The future of the ruble, however, depends little on this. Therefore, now in Russia there is a situation where there is no single market and exchange rate. This will have corresponding consequences for the country’s economy, which is already not in the best condition. This destroys imports, which will cause stores to become empty. Therefore, what is happening with the ruble is quite complicated. If there is no foreign exchange market, then there is no clear mechanism for forming the exchange rate. In fact, it is formed by Central Bank employees in agreement with the Ministry of Finance. Today, the possible range of the ruble to dollar exchange rate is from 50 to 150. In these circumstances, Russia is feverishly looking for a way out of the current critical situation. The need to find new opportunities to pay for imports and receive revenue from exports forced the Russian authorities to quickly legalize cross-border payments in digital currencies. Such a draft law was submitted to the State Duma of the Russian Federation back in April 2023, a year later it was changed and reintroduced, and now it has been adopted in the first reading. The law comes into force on September 1. That is, from September it will be possible to create platforms for the use of cryptocurrencies in international payments. Therefore, it was decided to create “experimental legal regimes” for specific projects. They can use digital currencies as currency values, means of payment in foreign trade, and others, and this will be regulated by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. https://zn.ua/ECONOMICS/v-rossii-naspekh-uzakonili-raschety-v-kriptovaljute-i-razreshili-ikh-majninh.htmlIt is unlikely that all of Russia’s major international trade partners will be interested in accepting cryptocurrency and paying with it. This is especially true in China and India, where cryptocurrency is not treated very well. But the situation in general is very interesting for the cryptocurrency market. |

Guys what your take on this??
It is possible that for some investors they see this as positive news, because with Biden's resignation it makes Trump come forward as the strongest candidate, which we know that he came with good promises in the world of Bitcoin, and that made his way to becoming president became smoother and made investors more confident that he could become president and realize his promises. However, I'm not so sure that it can bring a bullrun, because to achieve a bullrun it can't only be achieved with Trump as president, but it must also be supported by other positive news, but it does provide positive things to the market. Since Kamala Harris began running for the presidency of the United States instead of Biden, Trump's ratings have begun to fall sharply and his chances of becoming president again are becoming less and less every day. A new poll conducted July 22-24 and released Sunday showed Harris' approval rating ahead of Trump in Wisconsin by 2 percent, Pennsylvania by 3 percent, Minnesota by 8 percent, and in Michigan, Harris led Trump in favorability by a whopping 57 percent. against 47 percent, that is, by as much as 10 percent. In just one week, Harris' overall favorability rose from 35 percent to 43 percent, while her distrust rating dropped from 46 percent to 42 percent. https://www.dialog.ua/world/299072_1722330756. In addition, Trump is not the only presidential candidate who has a positive attitude towards cryptocurrency. Sources of the Financial Times reported that members of the team of US Vice President Harris contacted major representatives of the crypto industry and indicated their intention to establish a positive dialogue with participants in the digital financial assets market and have already held negotiations on interaction with the largest American cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, stablecoin issuing company Circle and blockchain payment operator Ripple Labs. https://forum.bits.media/index.php?/topic/237167-financial-times-In any case, this is very good for the cryptocurrency market, as long as the presidential candidates do not forget about it when they take office. |

What, exactly, are the Russian military doing on Syrian territory? This is so far from their own borders.
A better question is why does Ukraine help the terrorist groups in another sovereign nation far away from its own borders? It is worth recalling the words of the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine Budanov that Russian war criminals will receive fair punishment in different parts of the world, wherever they are. And now we are seeing it live. Russia has been active in recent decades, including on the African continent, where it has tried to resolve geopolitical and economic issues, change or support certain governments in its interests. And today the whole world sees that this potential is no longer the same and Russia’s capabilities are no longer the same. This means that there will be fewer new orders and fewer hopes for Russia to solve problems in the region. On the night of July 28, reports began to appear on social networks that dozens of militants from the former Wagner PMC, as well as representatives of the Mali army, were killed by Tuareg rebels. These messages were accompanied by photographs and videos showing burnt equipment, the bodies of killed white people in military uniform, as well as possible prisoners. According to reports, at least 82 mercenaries from the Wagner PMC were killed. Apart from the war in Ukraine, the Wagnerites have not had such simultaneous losses anywhere since February 2018, when Russian militants came under attack from the United States in Syria. According to the Air Force, other sources and the militants themselves, it is known that several leading figures among the Wagnerites were killed in this battle, including the “commander of the 13th assault detachment” Sergei Shevchenko, as well as the administrator of the Gray Zone telegram channel Nikita Fedyanin, also known as “ White". It was this channel that was the most popular of those close to the Wagner PMC. The Russian convoy, which was actually ambushed, could also include one of the most famous commanders of the Wagner PMC, Anton Elizarov (“Lotus”), who participated in the capture of the Ukrainian city of Soledar and has the title of “Hero of Russia,” but there is no word yet on his fate accurate information. Mali is the last area where the Wagner PMC maintained control and made profits, primarily from gold mining. Now a replacement for the Wagner Group with the Afrika Korps is being prepared in Russia according to the same principle and scenario as in Syria. The dispatch of the Afrika Korps and their complete replacement of the African control areas of the Wagner PMC will relieve at least one direction in the north of the Kharkov region, where this corps is now located, attacking Ukraine. The Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate hinted that they provided information support to the Tuaregs in defeating the Avgnerites, and not only informational. https://rubryka.com/ru/2024/07/29/prodovzhennya-bude-povstantsi-otrymaly-potribnu-informatsiyu-yusov-pro-rozgrom-vagnerivtsiv-u-mali/The war in Ukraine continues... |

Another way they've always used to control inflation is to bring down energy prices (remember Petrodollar).
In order to do that they'll have to increase the supply of oil in the global market.
To do that they need to (1) remove sanctions on Russia and let that oil flow again (2) convince Arab dictators to increase their production (3) end the wars in West Asia so that security comes back and they can actually increase production (remember Saudi invasion of Yemen is in a ceasefire state and not ended).
There is a good chance that the next US president will be able to fulfill #1 by ending the NATO-Russian war (possibly recognizing occupied parts as Russia) as there are enough signals coming out from US making me confident about that possibility. Trump will probably have an easier time doing that because of his radical decisions.
It is foolish to hope that the United States and Europe will lift sanctions from Russia after they saw that the war in Ukraine has greatly weakened the Russian economy and there is a good opportunity to put the squeeze on the aggressor and throw him out of the list of influential world powers. Putin can hardly count on Trump either. American politician and head of the district branch of the Republican Party for the 45th district of the New York State Assembly Boris Pincus said on the Kiev24 channel that, according to available information, Trump may offer Putin to leave the occupied territories of Ukraine in a specific short period of time. Otherwise, he “will simply say that he will be forced to give... ultra-modern types of weapons that no one has ever received abroad, but Ukraine will receive in unlimited quantities so that it can simply forcefully throw these barbarians out of the borders of 1991.” “This will be Trump’s plan,” the politician emphasized. https://www.unian.net/war/voyna-v-ukraine-kakoy-ultimatum-putinu-svetit-ot-trampa-12710139.htmlAnd the chances that Trump will return to the presidency are falling after Biden’s decision not to run for president for the next term. Now the likely Democratic candidate in this election, current US Vice President Kamala Harris, is confidently gaining support and information is already emerging that she is ahead of Trump in terms of support from US voters and influential individuals. But if Kamala Harris becomes the next president of the United States, then Putin’s Russia will clearly not be happy with regard to the war of aggression in Ukraine. |

The reason why crypto is mostly valuable during war is you can transact any place without the need to go bank, and of course during war banks are being short down and you can't access your funds during war so the only alternative is through cryptocurrency provided you have internet access and have mobile phone makes it more easier to transacts without having to seek permission from third party.
I live in Ukraine, where a full-scale and bloodiest war in Europe since World War II has been going on for three years now. From time to time, I asked my friends how much cryptocurrency had helped them, especially in the first months of the Russian invasion, when the Ukrainian banking system was experiencing significant difficulties. I can say that in general, cash was used for payments; I did not see any significant demand for the use of cryptocurrency among my friends. But in this regard it is very difficult to get any statistics. Transferring funds in cryptocurrency from one person to another is done quickly if you have the Internet and appropriate devices, but in many cases, fiat is needed for the final stage of most transactions, and you still can’t do it without banks. Of course, the reason here is still the low liquidity of the cryptocurrency; over time, it is quite possible that the situation will change. |

It's impossible for artificial intelligence to take over every job , there are still jobs that require human input and experience, a robot or ai is programmed by a human being, it doesn't have the capacity to perform some special tasks like humans, I believe that ai will only take over in just a few aspects... it's believed by a lot of people that these ai's might tend to outsmart humans and try to take over the world...it might just be science fiction or is there some atom of reality in this?
You should not think that only humans are capable of learning and analyzing. Anything a human can do now, a robot will eventually be able to do, and robots will have the ability to outperform humans in almost everything, depending on the direction of their designs and programming. In general, in my opinion, there is no need to be afraid that robots, displacing people from many of their current professions, will lead to the deprivation of income for many and will lead to a deterioration in the living conditions of many people. Yes, robots are capable of effectively replacing humans in many professions, and this will cause discomfort only during this period of replacing humans with robots. But GDP will increase and the quality of human life will increase. States will be able to make payments to people who will not be able to work, or services and food will become free in certain places. At the same time, a person will have more free time for other activities, because he will no longer spend eight hours a day earning a living. However, as always, everything new has positive and negative sides. People must learn to keep robots under control by creating uniform laws and rules for robotics, limiting robots to special programs. In science fiction of the last century, when the idea of humanoid robots was truly complete fantasy, three laws of robotics were named, which in the form of programs were implanted into each robot and the first of them read: “A robot can never, under any circumstances, cause harm to a person.” . This is probably where everything is heading, and books about humanoid robots were written by people who had the ability to move around in time. Robots can bring great benefits to humans, but they must be under his complete control. Otherwise, human civilization may once again disappear on our planet. |

What, exactly, are the Russian military doing on Syrian territory? This is so far from their own borders.
What are they doing there? Let me see, they were officially invited by the legitimate government of Syria: On 30 September 2015, Russia launched a military intervention in Syria after a request by the government of Bashar al-Assad for military support in its fight against the Syrian opposition and Islamic State (IS) in the Syrian civil war. Meanwhile, your owners are illegally supporting rebels who oppose the legitimate president: On 22 September 2014, the United States officially intervened in the Syrian civil war with the stated aim of fighting the terrorist organization ISIS in support of the international war against it, code named Operation Inherent Resolve. The US currently continues to support the Syrian rebels and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces opposed to both the Islamic State and Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. So, cut out your stupid whining "Russia supported Donbass rebels" while you're supporting the US intervention in the independent state. But you like to write about double standards in relation to the outbreak of wars. You write that Russia sent its troops into Syria at the request of the government of Bashar al-Assad and this is completely legal, but if Ukraine supported the Syrian rebels, then it did so illegally. How, in this case, can we characterize the invasion of the Russian military since 2014 into the Donetsk and Lugansk regions of Ukraine, since the Ukrainian government did not invite them, and the Russian military ended up on the territory of Ukraine, allegedly at the request of the Ukrainian “rebels”. In both cases, on your part, Russia is right and Ukraine is wrong. By the way, how do you feel about the fact that in Mali the Tuareg rebels said that, as a sign of solidarity, they are ready to hand over to Ukraine dozens of Wagner soldiers who were recently captured by them. “Dear Ukrainian brothers, we, the armed forces of the CSP-DPA, want to express our solidarity with your fight against Russian criminals. We have captured a significant number of Wagner mercenaries and want to hand over these prisoners to you as a sign of support and solidarity,” the message says. "This gesture is intended to help you in your fight for justice and freedom. We hope this will contribute to strengthening our ties and our common victory. With all our support, the CSP-DPA armed forces," their statement said . https://world.comments.ua/news/africa/tuaregi-plenili-vagnerovcev-v-mali-teper-predlagayut-peredat-ih-ukraine-737685.ampWhat are the Wagnerites, that is, Russian mercenaries sponsored by the Russian state, doing in Mali? Why did they flee the battlefield in Ukraine, where they lost 76,192 of their fellow soldiers? |

Well, all fiat currencies are problems. They just differ in degrees. They're all slowly crumbling down. They basically share the same doctrine. The euro is relatively younger, though. And while you are criticizing it as one big problem, if we compare the euro with other fiat currencies in the world, it's actually doing much better. Even if some member countries of EU itself don't like the euro and even prefer to use another currency, the euro actually remains widely used. It's the second most used currency in the world.
The biggest problem for the euro is the EU itself, what I mean by this is that the political union between the countries is weak, the US has been a united country for hundreds of years, so even if there are differences between some regions of the country about a polemic topic they will keep the US together no matter what. But the history of Europe is full of conflicts between each other, with the most recent conflict being the war at Ukraine, so I do not think the political union will last for long, and once it is broken the economic union and the euro will be gone too. I don't see any significant problems with the euro. It is a strong currency that has good demand worldwide and good liquidity. Politically, the countries of Europe have a centuries-old and often thousand-year history, so they will always have their own ambitions and various kinds of disagreements. But European countries need each other. Now not a single developed country can produce on its territory all the goods it needs, and therefore economic and financial ties will strengthen and the common euro currency serves as this unifying factor. The war in Ukraine, although it affects the interests of EU countries, is not a reflection of any internal problems in the EU. Putin's Russia launched a military attack on Ukraine in the 21st century, attempting to take over and absorb the country. In the face of a common looming danger, this should, on the contrary, unite the EU countries and strengthen its currency. I hope this happens. |

money is everything and everything needs money, by having money happiness will come. They made portraits of poor people laughing out loud, then they said that happiness is not just about money and wealth. However, in reality, they feel very confused and even frustrated because they don't have money, they are still confused about whether they can eat every day. And there are quite a few people whose families are destroyed and just end their lives just because of the economic and financial problems they face.
And after that they made a portrait where a rich person was feeling sad, and then they concluded that money and wealth do not bring happiness at all. However, in reality, with the wealth and financial freedom they have, they really feel happy with the wealth they have.
Indeed, money cannot guarantee happiness, but it creates good preconditions for it. Money is the equivalent of material well-being, and we live in a rough material world, for a normal life in which we need material wealth. But even with money, success and happiness depend on a person’s behavior in the correct use of this money. But in any case, for complete happiness a person must have a sufficient amount of money. |

The climate on our planet is changing dramatically. This is confirmed by temperature records this summer in many regions of the planet. This means that fertile lands will partially become unsuitable for agriculture and will partially go under water due to rising sea levels. All this will lead to the problem of food shortages, which means hunger and wars for resources. But perhaps new technologies, rather than vast areas of agricultural land, will solve the growing problem of food shortages. I recently read an article that American entrepreneur and billionaire Bill Gates invested in a new ambitious project to create butter from CO2 and said that it tastes absolutely no different from regular butter, since it consists of a set of the same chemicals. Using a variety of biochemical technologies, scientists have come up with a way to produce fats from carbon dioxide taken from the air, as well as hydrogen extracted from water. Moreover, the entire butter production process takes place without the need to use animals, plants or agricultural land. Moreover, it is possible to synthesize not only butter, but also other food products in this way. https://focus.ua/technologies/658565-pervoe-v-mire-maslo-iz-vozduha-bill-geyts-rasskazal-kakovo-ono-na-vkus-foto |
