In our modern world, we all live in a completely new reality compared to the previous century. Today, whether on the subway or on the street, we encounter thousands of strangers. In the past, living in the village, everyone knew each other by sight, perhaps only meeting a few folks during seasonal work. However, today […]

Dostoevsky’s Demons/Possessed is usually viewed as the satire of Russian nihilists of the 1860s, and their random acts of violence, including the murder of the student, named Ivanov, in Moscow. But Dostoevsky sets his novel not in Moscow or St. Petersburg, but in a small provincial town, and besides individual crimes and a set of […]

A New York Times article about a draft US-European peace plan allegedly developed in Berlin reads like yet another psyop in the fight to outsmart Trump. According to this article, two documents providing security guarantees to Kyiv were agreed upon in Berlin. They provide for strengthening the Ukrainian army, deploying European forces on Ukrainian territory, […]

The Council of the European Union has decided to freeze Russian assets worth 210 billion rubles and euros for an indefinite period.
