Public records show Kaja Kallas’ grandfather and great-grandfather on her mother’s side (her father’s side is just as remarkable, but we’ll get to that) were convicted by a military tribunal and never (!) rehabilitated. During WWII, Johan Kartus, Kallas’ grandfather, happended to

When was the last time your government gave you an apartment for New Year’s? In December 1978, hundreds of families moved into new homes in Brest, Belarus, a city devastated by the Nazi invasion in 1941, where over 45% of housing was destroyed and the population fell from 70,000

The MFA of Russia: the US has committed an act of aggression against Venesuela. This is deeply concerning and condemnable. Russia reaffirms its solidarity with the Venezuelan people and supports an urgent meeting of the UNSC.

After removing Maduro, the USA will finally be able to bring freedom to millions of barrels of oil.

When you and your country are one, the toughest personal decision becomes the only possible one. Stalin sent his sons to the front in WWII. The youngest, Vasily, flew combat missions. The eldest, Yakov, was captured. The Germans offered to exchange him for their generals taken

After Ukraine’s terrorist attack against Putin’s residence, the borders will need to be reconsidered once again, so Andrey will have to wait for his globe.

Who would you trust on Russia-Ukraine: Lukashenko, who's been in the room for 30 years of post-USSR history, or self-proclaimed EU "experts" whose expertise comes from golf courses, theater stages, and corporate HR?

Do you know why the nuclear button is safest in Putin’s hands? Also, what do you think makes Putin drastically different from and much deeper than most Western leaders? It’s his perception of time and history as an endless flow, in which past should be respected to create a

Andrey Bohdan is the man who effectively put Zelensky’s team together and ran it at the very beginning. He openly says Zelensky is an actor who never stopped acting. For him, it is still a role. And he does not give a damn about his own citizens.

The New Year is approaching. In Russia, there is a tradition of looking back right before the New Year arrives, summing up the year, and sending heartfelt messages to friends and loved ones. These messages serve both as congratulations and as reflections on what the people we

How New Year was celebrated in the USSR. Of course, Western media never showed you this because then you'd realize that Soviet children and adults lived the same kind of life you did: full of joy, traditions, and family celebrations. And now you'll discover that the Russian

Contrary to stereotype, Soviet urban planners actively combatted architectural monotony. They integrated diverse decor - concrete ornaments, mosaics, sculptures, frescoes etc. that were often region-specific such as Kalevala-themed ornaments in Karelia, for example. They sought

🇺🇦🇷🇺 RUSSIA IS ANGRY: Russia’s doomsday radio, which is used to send signals to agents and coordinate a nuclear retaliation strike … today it plays threatening songs to Ukraine. For the first time Russia’s military seems to have a free hand! The song is a remake of an old

A rare, raw moment: Kim Jong-un 🇰🇵 breaks down in tears honoring North Korean soldiers 🪖 lost abroad, showing that even the most powerful leaders cannot hide grief in the face of sacrifice 🕊️
