   I am not sure that global warming is caused by pollution. (This is only 99.9% sure; there is still room for evidence.) But images like this one (Leicester 1950) think that it shouldn't give way to a discussion we need to behave responsibly, protect the environment, reduce pollution. Of course, developed States have a greater responsibility than the rest of the world, and the United States above all. But I remember a short visit to a Central European country many years ago, when I hit a truly apocalyptic landscape. The image of Leicester would have seemed brilliant in addition to the red fog there. Video: Residential districts of Leicester today, built on former industrial zones

 From the beginning of the invasion in Ukraine, Rusia economy get a burst by rising prices for natural gas and by giving a lot of state contracts in strategic industries. The international sanctions was for long time inefficient.  Now, according to BBC, that quote Russian newspapers, there are first signs of true economic problems in the Russian society. Today’s Russian papers focusing again on economic problems: ▪️ “To pay utility bills some Russians are falling into debt" ▪️ “Rise in bread prices outstripping inflation” ▪️“Cement factories on the brink” ▪️ Call to "freeze basic food prices to battle inflation" #ReadingRussia pic.twitter.com/QpGEUVoCw4 — Steve Rosenberg (@BBCSteveR) July 18, 2025 Today’s Russian papers focusing again on economic problems: ▪️ “To pay utility bills some Russians are falling into debt" ▪️ “Rise in bread prices outstripping inflation” ▪️“Cement factories on the brink” ▪️ Call to "freeze basic food prices to battle inflation...

  A building in Istanbul is so old that it has captured all the empires that have mastered this city. It's not just a simple — construction it's a veritable time capsule where history has laid layer upon layer over centuries. From Rome at present, in one wall At the base of the building you can see elements typical of the Roman Empire: thick stone walls and massive columns, reminiscent of the era when the city was called Byzantion and was part of the vast empire of Rome. Byzantine marks over the Roman ruins Immediately above it rises structures with elegant arches and specific details of Byzantine architecture. These elements were added in the period when the city became Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire and one of the most important centers of the medieval Christian world. New shape during Otoman Empire On the next level, masonry and style become more functional, reflecting the Ottoman period, when the city was conquered by the Turks in 1453 and transformed i...

  Open: Sighisoara City street images from Sighisoara - the old town and the center of the fortress UNESCO monument of great importance, Sighisoara Fortress has benefited from funds for a quality restoration so that today it offers noted tourist services, especially on the side of accommodation and tourist attractions. The most interesting is to take accommodation in one of the small hotels in the citadel, usually decorated in the traditional Saxon style. Entertainment and culinary attractions are not exactly on the same level, events (on the entertainment side) sometimes have a kitsch air, and good food is hard to find. Many of the restaurants offer bad or ordinary food at unjustified prices, relying more on the location of the place than on the kitchen. source: Travel blog

 Fragment from an article that examines the phenomenon of semantic hijacking and discursive capture, processes through which political groups, particularly extremist ones, redefine words and concepts to promote their agendas and polarize society. These practices, which have historical roots, are amplified in the digital age through SEO techniques such as keyword research, keyword density, and authority-building via links. Examples include the hijacking of terms like "woke" or "elite" and the monopolization of debates on topics such as migration or LGBT rights. The authors emphasize the impact of these strategies on public discourse, the vulnerability of artificial intelligence to manipulation, and the risk of communication breakdown in society. The conclusion highlights the need to understand these mechanisms to counteract their harmful effects and preserve democratic dialogue. Globalization of antiglobalism “Gender Theory” – from keyword research to semantic hijack...

 Import tariffs are a legitimate tool used by states to correct economic imbalances. All countries use them in one form or another, even if some, including the U.S., have chosen not to apply them to certain trading partners. The European Union operates as a common market, with zero tariffs on internal trade. Imports from outside the EU are taxed by each member state based on the type of product or service. Similarly, the U.S. created a common market with Mexico and Canada through the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), initiated by Republicans in 1988 (Ronald Reagan) and expanded in 1994 (George Bush sr.) and 2020 (by Donald Trump himself). The North American market became the third-largest in the world, after ASEAN and the EU. The sudden introduction of 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico for almost all product categories has led to the collapse of this common market, built by Republicans over decades. Before NAFTA The Trump administration’s decision does not me...

  For three years, analysts, specialists in the ex-Soviet space, military experts, political scientists, psychologists, journalists and chibits keep trying to guess why Putin invaded Ukraine. Difficulty is given by the apparent lack of any political and economic logic behind such a gesture. Ukraine has no use value for Russia. The northern neighbor of Romania has a wide range of natural resources and an important agricultural capacity. But Russia already has all of that. A hypothetical total occupation of Ukraine would not economically bring anything more to the Russian Federation. Moscow already holds a huge hinterland, whose management is already creating big demographic and economic problems. Expanding the territory would only create new problems for it. Ukraine's resources would bring it nothing new, and the military occupation of Ukraine or part of it would increase the risks related to riots and terrorism. In addition, Ukraine is not and has not been among the ...

 extract from the article: Beyond Trump - What can peace in Ukraine look like and what was on Putin’s mind when he started the war? Even though it has suffered heavy human and material losses, Russia is prospering from the war in Ukraine. Those who bet on Russia’s bankruptcy in a war it cannot afford have misjudged the situation. In the first year of the war, economic sanctions were completely ineffective. The EU has blocked some imports for a wide range of products, but has remained dependent on Russian gas. Even if quantities have been reduced in this segment as well, Russia has imposed price increases and made even higher profits than before the war. Thus, 2022 was the most successful year for Russia’s international trade. Only after that did the situation deteriorate to almost the level of 2016, but the trade balance remains positive. At the same time, the war economy allowed the Russian leader to force the ruble rate and consumer prices, on the one hand, and stimulated, t...
