Russia’s “August Curse": hidden motives behind Putin's diplomatic rush

By Iryna Severin | UAObserver 

Bilateral talks between Zelensky and Putin are a ritualistic fiction that allows Putin to derail sanctions, or at least postpone developments beyond August, as August is often a fatal month for Russia. Russians regard it with caution, even dread. Many speak in whispers of the 'Russian August curse,' a month when some of the nation’s most ominous events have unfolded.
From the failed coup of August 1991, which ended the USSR, to the financial collapse of 1998 that crippled Yeltsin’s presidency, and the dramatic events of August 1999 that ushered Vladimir Putin to power amid war in the Caucasus, the Kursk submarine disaster in 2000 and others ominous events, August have repeatedly proven to be Russia’s month of reckoning, when history bends sharply.
Putin has long been known for susceptibility to superstition and obsession with the occult, tendencies that grow sharper whenever Russia faces battlefield setbacks or economic strain, especially under the threat of sanctions.
Russian political culture has a history of mystics, magic, and ritualistic symbolism influencing leaders. Putin himself is said to make decisions according to astrology and numerology, seek ritual reinforcement, and frame geopolitical struggles in mythic terms. So, simply surviving August is a challenging task for Putin.
Moreover, there is a prediction that Putin will lose power in August, which makes him even more cautious. Therefore, after August is over, we can see a different, more aggressive Putin.

Serhii Koroliov – Ukrainian genius behind the biggest technological achievements of the USSR

Serhii Koroliov – Ukrainian genius behind the biggest technological achievements of the USSR
23.01.2023



Do you know who “K. Sergeyev” was? How about “Chief Designer”? The soviet people did not know either, nor were they allowed to know. These are the aliases of Serhii Koroliov, the USSR chief spacecraft designer whose identity was kept hidden by Stalin and the NKVD (the masterminds of purges in the USSR). They limited his freedom, tortured him, and forced him to remain incognito, but they never broke him.

Read our article to learn the truth about the Ukrainian genius behind the biggest technological achievements of the USSR.

Just imagine, aged 17, Koroliov independently designed a working glider (an aircraft without an engine). Later, the Aviation Society of Ukraine had the design, created by a teenager, taken into actual development.

Serhii Koroliov was a Ukrainian genius who was obscured by the Soviet government. He was the mind behind numerous outstandingly progressive and revolutionary inventions of humankind; he created the first artificial Earth satellite and organized the first spaceflight and the first spacewalk.

Putin justifies Hitler's actions: "The Poles were uncooperative." Poland expresses outrage

Vladimir Putin delivers his propaganda to Tucker Carlson with excitement. Screenshot




Russian dictator Vladimir Putin justified the Nazis' actions, saying that the Poles being "uncompromising" over the ownership of Gdańsk forced Adolf Hitler to start the war with Poland in 1939. Poland is outraged by these claims.

Source: Putin in an interview with US propagandist Tucker Carlson:
 "After [WWII], this territory was transferred to Poland, and instead of Danzig, a city of Gdańsk emerged. Hitler asked them [the Poles] to surrender amicably, but they refused... [The Poles] went too far, pushing Hitler to start World War II by attacking them. Why was it Poland against whom the war started on 1 September 1939? Poland turned out to be uncompromising, and Hitler had nothing to do but start implementing his plans with Poland."
 Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski on Twitter: 
"It's not the first time the Russian dictator V. Putin blames Poland, invaded by the USSR on 17 [September] 1939, for the outbreak of WWII.
We are used to paranoid justifications for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. What’s shocking is that this time they are enabled by an American journalist."
Details: In his interview with Carlson, Putin once again outlined his vision of history. He claimed that it was Ukraine that started the war in 2014 and that Ukraine "created a threat to Crimea, which we had to take under our protection". According to the Russian dictator, in 2022, Russia did not start the war, but "tried to stop it."

Putin also said that Russia has not yet achieved its goals, among which he named "denazification" with "the prohibition of all kinds of neo-Nazi movements".

In his interview with Carlson, Putin also outlined other theses of Russian propaganda: that Ukraine was created by Lenin within the USSR, that nationalists collaborated with Hitler during World War II, that SS massacres were carried out, that "nationalism and neo-Nazism" allegedly exist and nationalists are glorified in modern Ukraine.

Trump-Putin Cheap Soap Opera Insted of US Global Politics

By Irina Severin | UAObserver












#Trump-Putin soap opera instead of global politics based on principles and international rules continues. Putin wins by destroying Trump's image, positioning him as a weak, easy-to-manipulate, and utterly corrupt politician.


Putin already broke down Trump, which is seen not only in the US approaches to Russia but also in Trump's crooked smile, hiding the burning shame of being humiliated by Putin, and in his lately pathetic, humiliated pose, with a visibly broken moral backbone.

The longer Trump plays a puppet of Putin in a Moscow-staged soap opera, the worse the consequences will be personally for Trump and the US's positioning on the world stage.

Trump unintentionally and blindly transfers the US power and prestige to Russia, strengthening the Axis of Evil without gaining anything in exchange.

If Putin would like to stop the war, he would do this, or never have started it in the first place.

Putin-Trump-Scholz Shadowy Corrupt Dealings with Putin Under Pretext of Peace Negotiations

By Irina SEVEIN | UAObserver

What is so "productive" about Trump's phone call with Putin and Russia's rejection of Trump's ceasefire? Is it about Putin productively corrupting both Trump and Scholz?



As multiyear practice shows, Russia's business deals with the West are part of Putin's warfare against the West - a way to corrupt the Western establishment, turning it into Russian lobbyists or Putin's secret weapons against their own countries. 

It is a usual practice for Putin to bribe corrupt foreign politicians, often using hidden bearer shares inside the energy deals. Otherwise, it would be inexplicable why Trump and Scholz would agree to a deal benefiting only Russia when Putin attacks an ally - Ukraine and wages a hidden warfare of attrition against both the US and the West, including Germany.

Why Witkoff, US Special Envoy to Middle East, Negotiating with Russia and Not Specially Assigned nvoy Kellogg?

By Irina SEVEIN | UAObserver

The response is simple. The situation in the Middle East is directly connected to Putin. The deadly Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, which happened on Putin's birthday on October 7, was sponsored by Putin.

Steve Witkoff, the US Special Envoy to the Middle East

Putin needed to divert the attention and resources of the West from Ukraine to the Middle East, and this is precisely what happened. After the Russia-sponsored attack, for more than half a year, Ukraine was deprived of US military aid, and all the attention was redirected to the Middle East, which gave Russia a massive advantage against Ukraine.

The destruction of Gaza makes Putin's crimes in Ukraine the new normal, not a war crime or genocide. It was not only a Russia-sponsored Hamas terrorist attack. It was Putin's special operation, supported by Netanyahu, or their joint special operation from the start.

Hurricanes stop landfall in US territory, but tornadoes are still working

By Iryna Severin

It's about time to explore who is boiling the #Caribbean

.



It's about time to explore who is boiling the #Caribbean. Does the US have a submarine fleet to squeeze Russian #submarines from the region, or do the elections exclude such an option?

Higher temperature is observed in the waters of the countries recently visited by Patrushev, who threatened the world with "unique and without analogs weapons able to destroy any country in the world, including the US."

It seems Russians managed to insert their nuclear-powered autonomous heaters there, probably under the pretext of something innocent related to security issues - the topics Patrushev secretly discussed with the heads of state.

The irony is that after the devastating Hurricane Helene and the less destructive Hurricane Milton, the hurricanes that had carefully formed in the Caribbean Sea didn't land in the US territory but suddenly rushed into the open Ocean, touching some of the countries in the Caribbean Sea.

I am glad my advice was heard, as it helped prevent hundreds of American lives and multi-billion-dollar losses.

The failure to generate a devastating hurricane explains why Putin and Russian diplomats, a week ago, suddenly announced that they are ready for peace negotiations with Ukraine.
The
Russian strategy was to weaken the US by devastating hurricanes to such an extent that any assistance to Ukraine became impossible. Russian propaganda in the US gladly spread memes about withdrawing aid to Ukraine and sending this money to victims of the hurricanes instead.

The sudden change in Russian wording was a result of the failure of the Russian operation. After the devastating Hurricane Helene, the next hurricane, Hurricane Milton, significantly diminished (instead of the usual rapid intensification) before making landfall in Florida. Other hurricanes or tropical storms formed in the Caribbean could not even overcome the Yucatan Strait to reach the Gulf of Mexico.

However, a week later, after the tragic inundation of the Spanish province, which led to massive devastation and human life losses, the Russians suddenly perked up and solemnly stated to the UN's "Security Council" that no negotiations with Ukraine would be possible before all of Putin's ephemeral goals are achieved.

At the same time, Putin's adviser, Karaganov, publicly declared that Europe is the most evil creation that should be washed from the Earth.

Why? Russians exalted that their weapon, which provoked devastating downpours and inundation in Spain, worked to the fullest, confirming empirically that Russia does possess an ultimate weapon against any country in Europe.

Climate change, resulting from Russia's melting of the Arctic, strengthened hurricanes and lesser-known weather phenomena, leading to massive inundation in Spain. Climate change is part of the Russian climate war.

However, in both cases, Russians employed local geophysical weapons, heaters, boiling water, and various technical means to artificially create low pressure. The use of geoengineering to turn usual severe weather into catastrophic severe weather is the essence of Russian Weather warfare.

Spain-type catastrophic downpours and inundations can also be mitigated, as hurricanes and their associated losses can be prevented. Unfortunately, the damage already caused will remain a tragic reminder of the Russian climate war against Europe.

The most important thing is that the countries that suffered Russian covert climate and weather attacks recognize that the devastation was caused not by Mother Nature, as climatologists suggest, but by "Mother Russia," as the Far Right in the West likes to name Russia.

The typhoon that recently affected the Philippines and Taiwan, as well as the massive inundation in Japan, share a similar artificial nature, as do many other typhoons and inundations that have recently devastated China and other countries.

The sooner Moscow's role in natural disasters is recognized, the less damage Russia will manage to cause.

The next G20 Summit should be devoted to this issue.

Objectively,Trump is not interested in negotiations with Russia, but in Ukraine's victory over Russia

By Iryna Severin | UAObserver














Objectively, Donald Trump is not interested in Ukraine's negotiations with Russia. The US is interested in Ukraine's victory over Russia, even if there is still no understanding of it. However, realizing that the US and the West are already at war with Russia should change this suicidal approach to arming Ukraine. Moreover, if the US and Europe plan to survive in a war with Russia, they should be ready to oppose Russia by all means before it is too late.


The hidden war of attrition against the US, which Russia already wages, will turn into a war of extermination as soon as Russia wins in Ukraine if the West chooses to impose capitulation to Russia on Ukraine instead of strengthening military aid. Such a strong and devoted partner like Ukraine is a gift to the US. Unfortunately, until now, the US has played into Putin's hands by depriving Ukraine of the weapons and sacrificing Ukraine and the Ukrainians. 


However, to face Russia's aggression, negotiations with China are necessary, and Marco Rubio, sanctioned by the Chinese government, is not a good choice. He neither projects strength nor trust. Building a constructive relationship with China will be a challenging endeavor. Russia uses all possible means to ignite a war between the US and China, which is the cornerstone of its global strategy. 


Moscow, by clashing the heads of the two most powerful countries in the world and bleeding them dry, becomes the only global superpower by default.  Choosing Marco Rubio as Secretary of State plays into Putin's hands and promotes Russian interests by antagonizing China. However, unlike Russia, China is an inherently rational player. China's irrationality is a derivative of Russian influence, not an inherent quality. 


Economic interests and the issue of survival (Russia is waging a hidden war of attrition against China, too) will shape China's adequate political position if some cultural specifics of China and economic interests are considered. However, the Secretary of State should have strong economic and business thinking for such an approach. Mike Pompeo had the necessary charisma and was a virtuoso at building political relations with the outside world based on the United States' business and economic interests and creating solid alliances.

Chinese Peace Plan? There is no Chinese Peace Plan

By Irina Severin | UAObserver

Russian peace plan disguised as "Chinese peace plan"





What to know about the Chinese peace plan? There is no Chinese peace plan. China promotes a Russian peace plan disguised as a "Chinese peace plan." 

This is an old Russian false flag tactic of promoting its own plans as a third party's plan to increase the chances of its implementation by the weight and authority of the false flag used, in this case, the Chinese flag. 

Yes, China has introduced some decorations that should make the plan more acceptable, like phrases about sovereignty and territorial integrity, only to annihilate them with the following demands. Such an approach is hypocrisy as a political strategy - to obtain what Russia wants while preserving a semblance of decency.

Putin's Uranium Obsession Makes Kazakhstan Next Target

By Irina Severin | UAObserver

Gurulyov: "Kazakhs are next after Ukrainians. The decision is taken."


Andrey Gurulyov, a deputy of the 8th State Duma for the ruling "United Russia" faction and a former deputy Commander of the Southern Military District of the Russian military, stated lately: "Kazakhs are next after Ukrainians. The decision is taken."

Why Kazakhstan? Does it mean that Europe can relax?

Russia desperately needs Kazakhstan, the largest producer of uranium, accounting for 43% of global production and possessing the biggest Uranium reserves—13% of global reserves. Russia is also mentioned among the major Uranium producers, but Russia processes Kazakh Uranium as Russia does not have its own Uranium deposits. Russia is afraid that it can lose access to Kazakhstan's fields. 

Recently to increase the reserves of Uranium, a Russia-sponsored coup d'état in Niger - one of the major producers of Uranium, which led to the expulsion of the West from the country.

But why Russia so desperately needs Uranium?

Putin's ambitions in Russia's economic and military development depend on Uranium.

Russian Orthodoxy as Cover-up for Eurasian Military Shamanism

By Irina Severin | UAObserver


Russian Orthodoxy has nothing in common with Christianity. It is a cover for aggressive Shamanism professed by Genghis Khan - Putin and Shoigu's icon and a founding father of the Russian empire according to Russia's Eurasian ideology. 

The concept of Mongol Military Shamanism was to capture the entire world, formulated as "to reach the ultimate sea" and unite the world under their rule. Any state opposing Mongol rule was considered a rebel to be annihilated. 

This is precisely how Shoigu - the ideologist of Russian Eurasianism, sees the world. If Putin has the title of the Supreme Ruler of Russia, Shoigu, in the Russian Eurasian hierarchy, is a Supreme Shaman - who defines Russia's politics and to whom Putin secretly obeys. Both secretly worship Genghis Khan and his spiritual followers like Hitler. 

Russian orthodoxy, in fact, is a cover for Eurasian Military Shamanism. It is not strange that Hitler's cap is the main relic of the alleged Orthodox temple recently built by Shoigu. People have long called it a shamanic temple - something opposite to Christianity.
