Amenințarea Kremlinului…

Ca de obicei, prietenul nostru RT este “de veghe”, și ne sesizează despre cui prodest. (Ador când folosește cuvântul sulfuros…) Putem sta liniștiți însă, căci, cum altfel, “#WEARENATO“. (Chestiunea cu tridentul o fi de la Український тризуб… Doamne păzește!) Continuăm să interceptăm cu succes avioane rusești în spațiul Mării Negre. Aflăm despre “gorila lui Putin“. Gorila fiind în poză, alături de Putin (și între ei, cocotierul):

Iar acesta este Șeful (opoziției ruse):

LOL!

Uhuh, Putin este aidoma teroriștilor islamici! O poză spune cât o mie de cuvinte:

Să menționăm, totuși, originalul. Iată citatul:

Vladimir Putin: But you cannot quote things out of context. I will remind you what this was about. I was asked whether we were ready and whether I was ready to use the weapons we have, including weapons of mass destruction, to protect ourselves, to protect our interests. And that’s what I answered.

I will remind you of what I have said. I have said that our nuclear weapons doctrine does not provide for a pre-emptive strike. I would like to ask all of you and those who will later analyse and in one way or another interpret my every word here, to keep in mind that there is no provision for a pre-emptive strike in our nuclear weapons doctrine. Our concept is based on a reciprocal counter strike. There is no need to explain what this is to those who understand, as for those who do not, I would like to say it again: this means that we are prepared and will use nuclear weapons only when we know for certain that some potential aggressor is attacking Russia, our territory. I am not revealing a secret if I say that we have created a system which is being upgraded all the time as needed – a missile early warning radar system. This system monitors the globe, warning about the launch of any strategic missile at sea and identifying the area from which it was launched. Second, the system tracks the trajectory of a missile flight. Third, it locates a nuclear warhead drop zone.

Only when we know for certain – and this takes a few seconds to understand – that Russia is being attacked we will deliver a counter strike. This would be a reciprocal counter strike. Why do I say ‘counter’? Because we will counter missiles flying towards us by sending a missile in the direction of an aggressor. Of course, this amounts to a global catastrophe but I would like to repeat that we cannot be the initiators of such a catastrophe because we have no provision for a pre-emptive strike. Yes, it looks like we are sitting on our hands and waiting until someone uses nuclear weapons against us. Well, yes, this is what it is. But then any aggressor should know that retaliation is inevitable and they will be annihilated. And we as the victims of an aggression, we as martyrs would go to paradise while they will simply perish because they won’t even have time to repent their sins.

Ironic? Sarcastic? You tell me!

Oh, da: Bolton! Cam așa zice MS:

We know – and talk a lot – about the unilateral exit of the United States from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. We recently heard about the United States’ intention to exit the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. We know about the Administration’s doubts about prolonging New START and hear about the intention to deploy some elements of the anti-missile defence system in space.

As I recall, there is a bald eagle pictured on the US coat of arms: it holds 13 arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other as a symbol of peaceful policy: a branch with 13 olives. My question: has your eagle already eaten all the olives leaving only the arrows?

In general, I would like very much to talk with you not only as the Assistant to the US President, but also as a specialist on disarmament and arms control.

și dialogul continuă. Întâi Bolton:

And I had discussions with all of your senior national security advisors in the past two days, and again, I am grateful for the opportunity to speak with you on behalf of President Trump. And hopefully, I’ll have some answers for you, but I didn’t bring any olives.

Vladimir Putin: My thoughts exactly.

(Laughter.)

John Bolton: The olive branch is held in the right talon of the eagle, demonstrating its priority.

Vladimir Putin: If I remember correctly, there is also an inscription: In Varietate Concordia, United in Diversity. This is why, despite different approaches, we can and should look for points of contact.

John Bolton: That’s very much our intention, though our motto is “E pluribus unum,” “Out of many, one,” so maybe it is something to look forward to there.

Transcriptul se încheie aici. Hm! Interesant de comparat și cu transcriptul în rusește:

Насколько я помню, на гербе Соединённых Штатов изображён орлан: с одной стороны он держит 13 стрел, а с другой стороны – оливковую ветвь как знак миролюбивой политики – [ветвь] с 13 оливками. Вопрос: ваш орлан уже все оливки склевал, остались одни стрелы?

și mai apoi:

Я встретился с Вашими старшими советниками по политическим вопросам за те последние два дня, которые я здесь провёл, и поэтому я буду сейчас представлять ту точку зрения, которую высказывает Президент Трамп. И я надеюсь, что у меня будут ответы на те вопросы, которые у Вас имеются.

Но оливковую ветвь и оливки я с собой не привёз.

В.Путин: Я так и думал. (Смех.)

Дж.Болтон: Если Вы помните, то оливковая ветвь держится в правой лапе у орла, так что он демонстрирует свои приоритеты именно таким образом.

В.Путин: Там есть и надпись ещё, насколько я помню: «Единство в многообразии». Поэтому, несмотря на различные подходы, можно и нужно искать всё-таки точки соприкосновения. Мне так кажется.

Дж.Болтон: Действительно, это является нашим намерением, и нашим лозунгом является, что единство состоит как раз во множестве.

Știre importantă: Putin ne amenință! Adică l-au întrebat la o conferință de presă cu ocazia vizitei italianului, și MS a răspuns. Nimic nou:

Question: I have a question on the INF Treaty, the subject being discussed these past few days not only in our country and in the US, but also in Europe.

Due to the specifics of these arms –intermediate and short-range missiles – the Europeans could become hostages to the US if Washington withdraws from the treaty, as my colleague said yesterday.

It is not clear yet if Washington is withdrawing or is revising the format of this document, however, whatever the case, if Trump and his administration move beyond words, what steps will you take? This question is addressed to both leaders.

Vladimir Putin: This problem did not come up yesterday or even three days ago when the US President announced it. It came up earlier, and as you might have noticed, and we did notice, the United States Congress had already earmarked expenses for R&D on intermediate and short-range missiles.

This means the decision has been taken. Once research and development is underway – and they do not do it so it can sit on the shelf and collect dust, it means that the next step will also be made.

The budget was passed, the Congress approved it while a political statement was made several days ago. Yes, indeed, there are certain questions regarding progress in missile technology and the limitations undertaken only by the United States and the Soviet Union, now the Russian Federation.

However, what worries us is that the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty has been scrapped. Now we are talking about the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. And the future of a new START Treaty on limiting strategic offensive arms is unclear.

If all that is scrapped, then nothing will remain to limit arms growth. The situation will then become very dangerous, in my view. There will be nothing left but an arms race.

Now regarding Europe. Of course, the key question, if the United States withdraws from the INF Treaty, the main question is what will they do with any new missiles?

If they deploy them in Europe, we will naturally have to respond symmetrically, and the European countries that agree to this, if it goes as far as that, must realise that they will put their own territory at risk of a retaliatory strike. This is an obvious situation. We will go back to Pershings in Europe.

I actually do not understand why Europe should be brought to such a high degree of risk? I see no reasons for that, but let me reiterate, this not our choice, we are not pursuing this. In answer to your question as to whether we will be able to respond – yes, we will, and this will happen very quickly and efficiently.

What is the formal pretext for our partners’ withdrawal from the INF Treaty? Accusations that we are allegedly violating it. However, as usual, no evidence of this is produced, whereas the United States has already violated it by deploying Aegis anti-missile defense launchers in Romania, by placing them on land, on the territory.

What have they done? The Aegis launchers can be used for offensive missiles, not anti-missiles. They only need to update the software and that’s it. This can be done in hours. We will not even be able to guess what is happening, we will not be able to see it from the outside. The US has already violated the treaty.

How about unmanned aircraft? This is in essence also a direct violation. Drones are no different than intermediate and short-range missiles in this respect. This is an old trick, when nobody shouts ‘Stop thief!’ louder than the thieves do, but it will not work in this case.

We are carefully analysing everything that is going on in real life. But let me repeat, we are ready to work on this with our US partners without any hysterics. What matters is what will follow, which decision will be taken.

RI pe aceeași temă.

În ton mai serios, smoothiex12 ne mai explică despre lumea din jur: aici și aici.

Unz.com are un articol interersant despre Hitler (!).

MoA despre Khashoggi.

Despre China, pe românește.

CdSG despre ticăloși.

AS e pornit pe venețieni. Și pe grăirea în deșert.

AN are grija rușilor (!). Se întâlnește cu ei! Ăsta motiv de pușcărie!

Pe frontul local, vor să-l împacheteze pe Augustin Lazăr, procurorul general. Ei, nu chiar așa repede!
