Russia turning to North Korea a sign of weakness Ukrainian intel

YouTube Video Thumbnail
North Korea is indeed of interest to the Russian regime, as it has a sufficient stockpile of Soviet weapons, but the need for such weapons is a clear indication of its poor state, Andriy Yusov, a Ukraine's Defense Intelligence (HUR) representative, told Radio NV on Sept. 11. He commented on the reports that Russia plans to cooperate with North Korea, from which it plans to receive artillery shells. It is "very telling" that Russia is forced to ask for both ammunition and weapons from other states.

"We understand that despite the large stockpiles and huge warehouses, there is a shortage, in particular, a shortage of weapons for artillery systems. The information about cooperation with North Korea is nothing new, it's already known. [Russian Defense Minister Sergei] Shoigu's recent visit lasting several days was also dedicated to this. The lists of items Russia requested and applied for were much more extensive. Nevertheless, they did not receive confirmation or positive responses regarding all items." North Korea is indeed "of interest to the Putin regime because it has quite large stocks of Soviet-era weapons and the ammunition for them," said Yusov.

"As for the extent -- it will affect the ability of the aggressor to continue (its) defense," Yusov said. "It is impossible to say that cooperation with North Korea alone will be revolutionary for the aggressor's army in the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories." North Korean leader Kim Jong Un arrived in Russia on Sept. 12 to meet with dictator Vladimir Putin -- likely in the Russian city of Vladivostok on Sept. 13. It is expected that one of the topics the two dictators will discuss will be the transfer of weapons from North Korea to Russia. The United States has already warned that if such a transfer takes place, Moscow and Pyongyang will face new sanctions.

Osho on Spontaneity

Osho on Spontaneity – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity Osho – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity. The spontaneous person is innocent. He has a quality that only children have, and that is the meaning of purity, innocence. He has the quality that animals have and the trees have and which man has lost. To be spontaneous means not to act out of the past, because out of the past is all cunningness, cleverness, calculation, arithmetic. When you act in the moment and it has no reference to your past, the action has a beauty, a purity – the same as a small child’s act. Whether he laughs or cries or goes into a tantrum or becomes angry, all his acts have purity – it is uncalculated. His anger is hot and not cold. The calculated anger is cold. His anger is natural, a responsiveness. He has not brooded over it, he has not planned it. He is just in the hands of nature – hence the beauty. He is surrendered to his nature; he is not trying to cont...

British victory in Falklands War might spur Argentina to build nukes CIA feared

Agency worried that Argentina's political isolation following defeat could play a role in a decision to advance its nuclear program The CIA feared that British victory in the 1982 Falklands conflict would encourage Argentina's ruling military junta to step up its efforts to construct nuclear weapons, according to a newly uncovered report. Intelligence analysts at the spy agency examining the issue of nuclear proliferation wrote in a secret report that "the Falkland Islands crisis is raising security issues for Buenos Aires that could influence Argentine attitudes towards the development of nuclear technology." The report, dated 24 April 1982, said: "A humiliation in the Falklands probably would encourage the conclusion that the possession of nuclear weapons - or merely the foreign belief that Argentina had such weapons - might have made the UK more accommodating. A major reverse for Argentina in the dispute could persuade it to proceed to build nuclear weapons....
