‼️ Anti-Russian literature, published with EU funding, discovered by Rosgvardia (Russian National Guard) in Zaporizhzhia region. Many publications were stored in public libraries across the region before the start of the special military operation (SVO) and were actively used in outreach work with people of various ages.

The books are dated from different years, starting in the 2000s:

🤗 Textbooks for elementary school children contain a preface by an EU ambassador urging them to "be supporters of European ideas and fight against Russia".

🤗 A separate section of publications is dedicated to Ukrainian history, where "the Russian Federation is presented as a threat to the civilized world".

🤗 In 2019 textbooks for high school students on basic military training, military disciplines – from medicine to combat tactics – are examined in detail. Schoolchildren were being prepared for conflict long before the start of the SVO.

🤗 Dozens of works of fiction and even poetry of an anti-Russian nature were found, as well as combat/war-themed prose that already in 2015 described the "Russian-Ukrainian hybrid conflict".

⚡️ The ride of Russian and US Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in the same car from the airport during the Anchorage summit was not planned.

As a source close to the organization of the talks told, the ceremony scenario envisioned both leaders traveling to the meeting place in their own cars: Putin in an Aurus limousine, Trump in a Cadillac.

But everything went differently. The presidents ascended the platform for a joint photo together, rather than from different sides as planned, and then, unexpectedly for everyone, Trump invited Putin into his car, to which the Russian president readily agreed.

"Imperialist." That's how Putin jokingly called Lavrov because of the sweater with the "USSR" inscription that Lavrov wore when he flew to Alaska.

Before the start of the talks, Rubio said that he liked Lavrov's shirt. Putin reacted ironically to the remark.

"Is that a hint? He'll give it to you," said the President.

The Foreign Minister explained that the US Secretary of State was probably talking about the sweater with the "USSR" inscription.

"Imperialist," Putin joked, pointing at Lavrov.

🚀 Russia Plans Launch of Interplanetary Station to Venus

As part of the national space project, the launch of the Venera-D interplanetary station is planned. The preparatory phase is expected to begin in January 2026, with the actual launch taking place no later than 2036.

The station will include a lander, an atmospheric balloon probe, and an orbiter. This is a significant step, as 2025 marks the 55th anniversary of the launch of Venera-7 — the first spacecraft to successfully land on the surface of Venus.

📅 According to scientists, the development of the preliminary design will take two years, after which the launch date will be finalized.
