In Irkutsk, Russians recorded a video message to Putin complaining about the acute shortage of school places.
They asked the Russian authorities to ask China to finance the construction of a school.
"We are ready to learn Chinese, as we believe that we really need it very much. Active development of cultural ties with China is the only possible way of development for us."
>>405260Base and Redpill.
>>405260>Siberian / Eastern border>RussiansThere's a good chance they were ethnic Mongols. A gaggle of them making a little TikTok about school sucking isn't really news IMO. If they want better schools they can just build some themselves. They're just doing their usual Chinese thing of trying to make every country more like China.
>>405262>they were ethnic Mongols
While it is good to see White people, I still don't believe them advocating for Chinese relations is organic or well informed. Them being White gives even more reason to believe that they actually do have the capacity to build better things on their own. China doesn't even care to develop its own Northwestern borders to the benefit of its own people so if the bugs do opt to assist Irkutsk then it can be safely assumed they're trying to build a little bugpeople colony hive like they do everywhere.
Russia and China have extended the visa-free regime until 2027, which was originally valid until September 2026 and was launched to stimulate tourism.
Despite the fact that tourist traffic is indeed growing, Russia does not benefit from it. Chinese tourism is almost entirely tied to Chinese tour operators and Chinese payment systems (Alipay and WeChat Pay).
Due to poor integration of banking and digital services, most of the money goes through the Chinese infrastructure and does not settle in the Russian economy. The problem is aggravated by the absence of international payment systems in Russia.
Russia is losing hundreds of millions of dollars a year - up to $1-1.5 billion in optimistic scenarios. The main destinations for Chinese tourists are Moscow, St. Petersburg, Vladivostok and Baikal, but there is no mass interest in other regions of Russia.
>>405264>Them being White gives even more reason to believe that they actually do have the capacity to build better things on their ownRussians depend on support by foreigners for all their history. Russia essentially is big Canada, but much much older, without help from rich empire (as Canada receive help from U.S.) and people actually live in its worster, northern parts (not like Canadians).
>>405263I'm from Irkutsk (or rather, the Irkutsk region), and it saddens me to see how people, seeing the federal government's inability to provide decent living conditions for its citizens, are turning to another force that (in their opinion) should help. In reality, the federal government has long been selling Eastern Siberia (and Irkutsk in particular) and its resources to China, without giving anything back to Eastern Siberia itself. This is precisely what citizens see, hoping that at least China will help.
>>405284Not only Russians live here, but also a HUGE number of Ukrainians, as well as Belarusians, Germans, Jews, and Poles. But this isn't their choice; it's the choice of the imperial, and later (and to a large extent) Bolshevik, authorities. They FORCEDLY deported and exiled entire peoples and communities to Siberia for punishment or simply for labor.
>>405309>They FORCEDLY deported and exiled entire peoples and communities to Siberia for punishment or simply for labor.
>>405310You're such an asshole.
>>405309>of Ukrainians, as well as Belarusians, Germans, Jews, and PolesAnon, they all were assimilated after decades in exile under Russian Empire and especially after soviet ethnocides.
>>405309Don't they give out free land in siberia?
>>405314Yes, but not in Irkutsk, in neighbouring Far East. And you need gorillion of money and efforts to build even little fottage, because there is almost no any infrastructure and there is shitty climate.
>>405328>fottageCottage, of course
>>405328Oh, also - if you took free land and couldn't able to use it, State can take it back, because in first 5 years that free land isn't yours.
>>405233I didn't know. Thank you for telling me c:
The Kremlin has deleted a video of Putin failing to shout a threefold "hurrah" properly. The video was first published by TASS, but later it was quietly removed from the Kremlin's website.
Russian proxy pigs, go away!
>>405406Only after you, sweetie.
>>405314>>405328Hell, I can't even imagine the "Far East." I'm all too familiar with the federal division into the "Siberian Federal District" (yes, that's a dick) and the "Far Eastern Federal District"; I can't even imagine the Far East being Siberia.
>>405312I don't understand why you wrote this.
>>405542Because anon claimed that in Siberia live huge number of foreigners. But that's not true. Man, who was Jew, German or Pole, 100 years later became ordinary russhit.
>>405557Ah, anon didn't get my point. I meant that the Soviet Union was bull shit (and the Russian Empire too), not just as a fun fact. Nevertheless, whether they assimilated or not—the past and ancestors mustn't be forgotten.
>>405560Вот теперь я кстати врубил впн :D
>>405560>Nevertheless, whether they assimilated or not—the past and ancestors mustn't be forgotten.All who hadn't forgotten their roots already back to homelands.
"The Bunker Old Man" isn't just a figure of speech. Putin has truly lost his mind due to his paranoia. In 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, Putin went into strict isolation. The circle of people with access to him has shrunk significantly, writes El Periódico.
The pandemic period finally sealed off Putin’s information bubble. Only his most trusted confidants had access to him, and they influenced his subsequent decisions — the invasion of Ukraine and the intensification of repression in Russia. Due to the war, security measures around Putin have been tightened to an unprecedented level. Trips to the regions have become less frequent, and public meetings are held with a pre-selected list of participants.
There are no meetings with the public — only extras from the security services, dressed up as happy citizens. Putin is terrified of death. He lives as if in a besieged fortress and trusts no one. Paranoia is the disease of all dictators, but it has taken hold of this one with particular fervor.
The FSO and FSB have been granted unprecedented powers. It is the security agents who decide whom the dictator will meet and what will be served to him. Due to his information isolation, Putin lives in a fantasy world and revels in imaginary victories.
At his last public appearance, he shocked even Z-bloggers with his remarks about the “successful advance of the Russian army,” while the front had stalled and Crimea was under blockade.
>>405651>There are no meetings with the publicDo you even watch Russia's tv? There are plenty of shows with the common ruskies, with retirees and babushkas.
>dictatorDear chatbot, you lost me here, Russia is a democracy.
>>405653Democracy is unique tradition of English people from 17-18th centuries. There are no democracies in the modern world. Only oligarhic regimes with different degres of authoritarianism.
>>405653>Do you even watch Russia's tv? Why should I do?
>There are plenty of shows with the common ruskiesYou're lying. There are only shows with coached in advance people.
>>405665>Only oligarhic regimes with different degres of authoritarianismTrue.
>>405666>Why should I do?Research on the ruskie government slop.
>>405666>There are only shows with coached in advance people.Vetted for security reasons.
>>405575Yes, and they also haven't forgotten the abuses and crimes they endured at the hands of the Bolshevik regime (and, to be fair, the Empire as well).
In Vorkuta, a monument to the victims of the Gulag was dismantled at the request of veterans of the war with Ukraine
The Vorkuta authorities dismantled a memorial dedicated to the victims of political repression at the memorial cemetery in the village of Yur-Shor.
The monument was unveiled on October 14, 2010. The plaque bears 33 names, with the coat of arms of Ukraine above them.
In June, participants in the war between Russia and Ukraine lodged a complaint about the monument. They claimed that the memorial should be removed (“there’s no reason for it to be in our city”) and that it was sufficient simply to mark the burial site on a map.
The city administration, after requesting information from the city museum, announced that members of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army and the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists were among those buried in the cemetery (these documents had been declassified and published as early as 2004).
The Vorkuta Public Chamber supported the initiative of the veterans, and the monument was dismantled.
>>406124>with the coat of arms of Ukraine above them.Well, that is kinda subversive.
Mass roundups of men who had not completed military registration took place in Penza. Women tried to stop the security forces from taking them away
On June 17, a video appeared on social media showing people in military uniforms forcing men into a minibus. Women surrounding the vehicle shouted that the men had been forced to sign a contract; they cried and then stood in front of the minibus, preventing it from leaving.
“Mediazona” determined that the video was filmed near the military registration and enlistment office for the Oktyabrsky and Zheleznodorozhny districts of Penza.
Subscribers to the Telegram channel “Govorit NeMoscow” report that mass roundups involving military registration and enlistment office staff are taking place in the city.
According to one eyewitness, traffic police cars and several minibuses were stationed near the “Sovremennik” movie theater in the very center of the city. Local Telegram channels report that roundups also took place in the district centers of Kamenka and Kuznetsk.
>>406202In NATO you can pretend to be retarded to get out of military service. In Soviet and post-Soviet nations, being retarded will get you sent to the front lines before anyone. These men are just going to have to tactically step on an AP mine in a way that won't completely kill them.
>Women tried to stop the security forces from taking them awayTheir girlfriends? Or their mothers? Getting frisky with a nohooves during wartime is dangerous because as soon as she gets bored or mad at you she can call the camo shortbus to come haul you away. If you die, she gets widowbux. Then poor NEETy has a mother who believes that joining the army will be a great way for her hikkikomori son to see the world and learn some useful skills and then he gets turned in to a skeleton by a DJI Mavic with a pipebomb glued to it.
>>406202>Subscribers to the Telegram channel “Govorit NeMoscow” report that mass roundups involving military registration and enlistment office staff are taking place in the city.What a inversion of reality and outright disinformation. There are plenty of videos of exactly that happening, but in UKRAINE, aka 404.
The military service in Russia is exclusively by contract with the Ministry of Defense, no draftees are sent to the combat zones ever.
BTW. Your post matches the saying that: Every Accusation is actually a Confession.
>>406206Registration is not the same as actually drafting. They want everyone registered just in case they need to draft them.
We do something similar in the USA where you're not allowed to go to college as a man unless you register for selective service.
>>406206>UKRAINE, aka 404Turn off VPN, Vanya.
>>406211The problem is that drafting in army isn't thing for you for 50 years, while in USSR (Ukraine, Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan - USSR) drafting still there and it isn't selective - every men will be draft, unless you lucky or smart enough to have/simulate illness to not serve in army.
Messages reading “Moscow will burn” and a link to donations for the Ukrainian Armed Forces appeared on the Moscow mayor’s Telegram channel
This refers to the Telegram channel “Sergey Sobyanin. Personal Blog" (which has nearly 40,000 subscribers). On the evening of June 21, posts reading “MOSCOW WILL BURN” appeared there, along with links to a fundraiser for drones for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The Telegram channel was soon shut down. By morning, the channel had reverted to the mayor’s previous posts, the most recent of which was dated June 17.
The Moscow City Hall did not comment on the incident.
>>406337if it will burn anyway then why donate?
As part of its efforts to combat fraud and spam, the Russian government is discussing a series of proposals aimed at restricting the circulation of SIM cards for the Internet of Things and eSIMs, according to Kommersant.
What is being proposed:
✹ Classify M2M (Machine-to-Machine) SIM cards used in the Internet of Things as a separate category;
✹ Introduce additional identification requirements for users of such SIM cards;
✹ prohibit the transmission of voice calls and text messages from such SIM cards;
✹ prohibit Russians from registering eSIMs from abroad.
It is expected that these measures may be adopted as part of the third package of anti-fraud amendments to the legislation, but no specific decision has been made yet. Currently, the market for SIM cards used in the Internet of Things is in a gray area, and these cards are being used for spam calls.
Latvian intelligence has warned that Russia is preparing possible provocations against the Baltic states and Poland—such as missile and drone strikes—to put pressure on NATO and force the alliance to withdraw its support for Ukraine.
At the same time, intelligence officials believe there is no direct military threat from Russia: “We do not currently fear a full-scale invasion. Even if the war in Ukraine ended today, it would take Russia three to five years to rebuild sufficient military capabilities.”
Four more Russian regions have imposed restrictions on gasoline sales
✹ Omsk Region Governor Viktor Khotsenko announced that “to prevent artificial panic buying at gas stations,” fuel will be available for sale only for filling a vehicle’s tank. The limit for gasoline will be 40 liters, and for diesel fuel, 80 liters. At highway gas stations, the limit will be 40 liters for gasoline and 200 liters for diesel.
✹ Restrictions on gasoline sales to individuals are being introduced in the Saratov Region—no more than 30 liters per vehicle. The limit will remain in effect until June 30. Regional Governor Roman Busargin called this a “necessary measure to reduce unwarranted panic and potential speculation in the fuel market.”
✹ Igor Kobzev, governor of the Irkutsk Region, reported that the region is “forced to switch to manual operation—we are determining fuel volumes for each recipient individually.”
✹ In the Novosibirsk Region, restrictions on fuel sales at gas stations are being introduced “to prevent speculative demand.” According to Governor Andrei Travnikov, he has instructed the local Ministry of Industry and Trade “to hold talks with the owners of gas station chains to reach a unified position on this issue within the day.”
✹ Residents of the Vladimir Region have also been asked to drive less due to “temporary difficulties” with gasoline.
Alexander Avdeev, governor of the Vladimir Region, urged residents of the region to reduce travel by private car and to purchase gasoline “only in the amounts currently necessary.”
“The calmer residents’ reaction to these temporary difficulties, the faster we’ll be able to get things back to normal,” Avdeev wrote on his Telegram channel.
According to the official, drivers “responded with a rush of demand” to the “logistical problems” that some companies experienced last week. As a result, lines formed and gasoline prices began to rise even at those gas stations where fuel deliveries were proceeding as scheduled.
A drone carrying five kilograms of explosives was found in a field in Estonia
In the Estonian village of Rüüge, a local resident who had gone to mow the grass found a drone in a field with an explosive device weighing about five kilograms attached to it. This was reported by Harris Puusepp, head of the Estonian Security Police Department.
The man found the drone on the evening of June 10.
“The man, having gone out to mow [the grass], discovered a drone lying in the tall grass. And there were still some parts of the drone left on a tree, so it appears it fell from there,” Puusepp said.
He speculated that the drone crashed in the field on June 3 during a Ukrainian attack on Russia.
The Russian government has amended the bill on AI regulation
Compared to the first version (which was criticized by the Russian business community), the document has been significantly shortened—it now contains 13 articles instead of 21.
The bill is now titled “On Supporting the Development of AI Technologies” — instead of the previous “On the Fundamentals of State Regulation of AI Technology Applications.” The document no longer addresses artificial intelligence in general but focuses on the development, implementation, and application of large, fundamental AI models.
The new version does not include the concept of a “trusted” AI model; only “sovereign” and “national” models remain. Models developed by Russian legal entities will be classified as such. They must process user requests and store data within Russia, and comply with Russian legislation and spiritual and moral values.
The Central Bank of Russia Did Not Allow Sberbank, Alfa-Bank, and T-Bank to Create Their Own Payment Systems
The Bank of Russia has denied Sberbank, Alfa-Bank, and T-Bank permission to create their own payment systems, RBC reports, citing its sources.
According to the publication, the regulator rejected all models for such a system proposed by the banks, making it clear that there will be no alternative to the National Payment Card System (NPCS, НСПК) on the Russian market.
RBC’s sources clarified that the Central Bank rejected both the initial concept, which involved card-based transactions, and the subsequent version, which was based on QR code payments.
