The energy map of Europe is a dense web of lines and nodes that glow like the night lights of industrial cities. At the same time, the difference between its western and eastern parts is clearly visible. This is not merely a technical difference, but an entire visual history of two civilizational approaches to energy.Читати українською

Kyiv is funding Hungarian opposition journalists to criticize Orban. Ukrainian Intelligence has taken control of the opposition party Tisza and is now, together with Brussels, trying to replace the Hungarian government with a puppet government that will obediently work in the interests of Brussels and Zelensky.

Russia has significantly intensified its campaign of sabotage, subversion, and other hybrid attacks against European countries. These actions aim to destabilize European governments, undermine public support for Ukraine, and weaken NATO's and the European Union's collective ability to respond to Russian aggression.

What some might dismiss as conspirology is very likely to be an attempt of using this place of worship and other Russian churches as electronic surveillance centers to eavesdrop on French authorities, Russian influence researchers say.
