    BREAKING: Fico, Slovakian Prime Minister, shot
    Um. CIA? MI6? Mossad? Who knows, but, this isn't good, at all. Let's hope he survives

    Text:
    An unidentified assailant has shot Fico, and the current Prime Minister of Slovakia is now being rushed to the hospital.

    History has a tendency to repeat itself. This incident echoes the story of Kennedy, who, after the Cuban Missile Crisis, aspired to establish normal relations with the USSR.

    The clique that seeks to rule and enslave the world will stop at nothing to eliminate those who oppose them. They disregard the will of the people and have no respect for democracy. Their goal is to reduce everyone to a state of a slave, every country to a state of obedient vassal, stripping away identity, independence, history, and heritage.

    According to Zero Hedge, half an hour ago:
    Slovakia’s populist prime minister Robert Fico has been shot, according to breaking news reports, after which he was rushed to the hospital and appears to be alive according to early reports. But some reports have listed his condition as "very serious" and that he had to be airlifted.

    Exclamation Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia

    If the trajectory of the war cannot be changed, the West will have to face "directly contending with Russia", warned RUSI's Sam Cranny-Evans.
    Russian forces have expanded rapidly on the Ukrainian frontline, with an expert sending a huge warning to the West.

    • 'Zelensky Conned Us': Ex-British PM Adviser Blasts West, Says 'Putin Knew We Were Jokers Before War':

    A British Political Strategist dissed The West and said its fight against Russia had been a "disaster" amid Ukraine war. He claimed that Western sanctions had only strengthened Russia-China relations. The Ex-British official also called Ukraine a "corrupt s**thole".

    BREAKING 🚨Robert Fico, Prime Minister of Slovakia 🇸🇰, has been shot in an attempted murder.

    No other head of state leader has had the guts to publicly and boldly state what Slovakian PM Robert Fico has.

    Want to know why Aussie mainstream media is silent on the MO behind his shooting ?

    Consider this:
    - Robert Fico sticks to old-school family values.

    - He's a staunch opponent of mass immigration for his
    mostly Christian nation.

    - He's launched criminal probes into his government's
    COVID response and the shady deals that cost lives
    of his people.

    - He's refused to sign the WHO's pandemic treaty
    response.

    - And he's not throwing cash at the corrupt Zelensky
    regime.

    Prime Minister of Slovakia is first EU country leader to admit publicly that West blocked peace deal to end Ukraine war in spring 2022 & used Ukraine for proxy war with Russia to last Ukrainian even though this was failed strategy:
    "It is proven that right at the beginning of the war in Ukraine in 2022, on at least two very promising occasions, the West did not allow the Ukrainians to conclude a ceasefire with fair conditions. Because a painfully wrong decision has already been made. The West will take advantage of Russia's violation of international law, supplying Ukraine with heaps of weapons, billions of dollars, burdening Russia with massive sanctions, attacking Russia's main mineral wealth revenues, and expecting a Ukrainian soldier, until the last one, to bring him the head of a Russian bear on a platter in the form of a militarily exhausted, economically ruined, internationally isolated and internally subverted Russia. This was, and unfortunately still is, a Western strategy that I say openly at home and abroad is not working, that it has failed." https://nazory.pravda.sk/analyzy-a-p...cho-nefunguje/

    according to latest information from doctors, the surgery should be successful and the Prime Minister will be transferred for treatment and over the next 24 hours will be observed in an Intensive Care Unit and will receive Intensive care to ensure there will be no complications

    All of us Slovaks who love Slovakia and who value the work of Prime Minister Robert Fico, are crossing our fingers and praying for his health."

    ‼️🇺🇦🪖 In #Ukraine, they denied the right to be Ukrainians to those who refuse to be mobilized.

    “If you are a draft dodger, then you have no right to say that you are Ukrainian. You are a gypsy,” said former adviser to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Viktor Andrusiv.

    Denmark unleashes plan to mobilise Danish women to war against Russia

    Denmark's government is planning to make conscription gender-neutral, meaning 18-year-old women will be in the lottery too.

    "It's a declaration of equality between the genders because as long as it's not the same for a woman, it supports the narrative of men being the strong gender and women being the weak or inferior gender.

    David Knudsen, 18, is among the young Danes who support the changes plans to complete his military service with Bjørg this summer.

    "If Russia was to invade us, of course we wouldn't be able to stand a week without the support of NATO and the US," he said.

    Blackouts imposed across Ukraine – authorities
    Ukraine has been forced to introduce temporary blackouts across the country, affecting both industry and the local population, as it struggles with the aftermath of Russian strikes, the national power grid operator said.

    In a statement on Wednesday morning, Ukrenergo said it had “implemented controlled emergency shutdowns for industrial and household consumers in all regions of Ukraine,” adding that critical infrastructure was not affected. It later clarified that the restrictions lasted two to three hours and did not apply to the Kiev-controlled part of Russia’s Kherson Region.

    “The reason is a significant shortage of electricity in the system due to Russian shelling and an increase in consumption due to the cold weather,” Ukrenergo said

    The operator also warned the public that the blackouts would most likely be in the evening hours due to increased power consumption. In addition, there will be power limitation schedules throughout the day for industrial consumers on Wednesday, Ukrenergo noted.

    This came after the operator introduced similar restrictions for industry on Tuesday, which were followed by controlled power cuts in the evening due to a spike in consumption.

    To alleviate the pressure, Ukraine is importing energy from neighboring EU countries, including Romania, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, and Moldova, Ukrenergo added. A day earlier, the operator said its repair crews were making every effort to restore power, although in frontline regions the work is constantly hampered by air raid sirens.

    The rolling blackouts come after Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba admitted earlier this month that Russian strikes had damaged half of the country’s energy system. The Ukrhydroenergo power generating company said last week that its hydroelectric facilities had suffered “overwhelming damage.”

    Meanwhile, Ukrainian Energy Minister German Galushchenko estimated the combined financial losses from Russian attacks at more than $1 billion, warning that the figure would continue to rise.

    Moscow has ramped up strikes on Ukraine’s military and energy infrastructure in recent weeks. The Russian Defense Ministry said last month that the strikes were in response to Kiev’s attempts to target oil facilities in the country. Moscow reiterated that the attacks are only aimed at Ukrainian military targets and facilities that support their operations and never at the civilian population.
