The statement was delivered on Thursday by John Kelley, Acting U.S. Alternate Representative to the United Nations, according to Ukrinform's correspondent in New York.

"China, as its representatives has pointed out, does not directly provide weapons to Russia. Nevertheless, China has become the decisive enabler of Russia's war effort by being the most important supplier of Russia's war industrial machine," Kelley said.

He noted that specifically, China has provided Russia with significant quantities of machine tools, microelectronics, optics, UAV and cruise missile technology, and nitrocellulose, which Russia uses to make propellant for weapons.

"If China were serious about helping to end the war, it would stop providing these critical components to Russia," Kelley said.

LD s5e9 "Fissure Quest"

In recent years, conversations among certain non-white and non-Western revolutionaries have been growing and deepening. We have encountered each other at gatherings, actions, workshops, assemblies, and the frontlines of insurrectionary upheavals, where we have begun to articulate our frustration with the existing political frameworks on offer for “people like us,” and expressed a desire for another language, another orientation.

In a significant development that reinforces claims of genocide against Russia, Ukrainian intelligence officials have reportedly obtained a massive trove of files detailing the forced deportation of thousands of Ukrainian children.

[...]

The documents, allegedly hacked from servers in Russian-occupied Crimea, are being hailed by legal experts as a potential “smoking gun” that could prove a systematic, state-sponsored campaign to erase Ukrainian national identity.

[...]

The files reportedly include personal records, details on forced changes of guardianship to Russian citizens, and new addresses for the abducted children across Russian-controlled territory.

[...]

Andriy Yusov, a spokesperson for Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence (HUR), said these files have been turned over to law enforcement, calling the abductions “one of Russia’s largest war crimes.”

This new evidence provides powerful support for a crime that has already drawn international condemnation. The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants in 2023 for Russian President Vladimir Putin and his commissioner for children’s rights, Maria Lvova-Belova, specifically over these deportations.

[...]

Kristina Hook, a genocide scholar and lead author of a New Lines Institute report on Russian genocide, argues that the new documents add to an already “overwhelming body of proof.”

[...]

Hook further asserted, “Millions of Russians are involved in this machinery of terror, including the mass kidnapping of Ukrainian children. Every day, we see a level of radicalization and cruelty that only makes sense if the goal is national extermination. It’s time for our leaders to publicly name this crime, as Ukraine’s children are being abducted by extremists who also openly threaten America and our allies.”

[...]

Dr. Michael Cecire, a researcher at the RAND Corporation, described Russian doctrine as fusing “kinetic destruction with population control,” with a goal of “demographic erasure.”

He argues that the forcible transfer and “Russification” of Ukrainian children are not incidental but a key part of a “coherent, state-directed, and multi-domain approach to eliminate the viability of the Ukrainian nation in contested regions.”

Open-source intelligence analyst Kyle Glen:

“The total number of ‘Shahed’ and ‘Gerbera’ decoys launched into Ukraine in July stood at 6,297, an increase of 1,378% compared to July 2024 (426 launched). With 6,297, July has seen approximately the same number of drones as the entirety of Jan-Oct '24."

[...]

In June 2025, Russia exceeded the 5,000-drone mark for the first time. July now sets a new record—the first time over 6,000 drones have been launched in a single month.

[...]

On July 31, at least 28 people were killed, including 3 children, aged three, six, and 17, while some 159 others were wounded in the a Russian attack on Kyiv.

Myanmar’s military leadership lifted a state of emergency more than four years after it took power in a coup, a necessary step for holding elections slated to be held later this year.

If this is all factual why on earth are we not hearing more about this?? This sure looks like a massive conspiracy.

Columbia’s capitulation has turned a university that was once a site of free inquiry and learning into a shadow of its former self, an-anti university, a gated security zone with electronic entry controls, a place of fear and loathing, where faculty and students are told from on high what they can teach and say, under penalty of severe sanctions. Disgracefully, all of this is being done to cover up one of the greatest crimes of this century, the ongoing genocide in Gaza, a crime in which Columbia’s leadership is now fully complicit.

Briar is hard to regulate because of it having no server, hence I was wondering: are they an alternative to whatever the EU is doing with general messaging apps?
