The illegitimate president of the Russian Federation

As already mentioned earlier, in the evening of May 23, the plane of the Russian dictator landed at the airport of the Belarusian capital.

The “Pul Pervogo” news source states that the first brief conversation between the illegitimate presidents of Russia and Belarus has already taken place at the Minsk airport.

In addition, the press service of Aleksandr Lukashenko clarifies that on May 24, the negotiations will take place in the Palace of Independence in Minsk, first in a narrow, and then in an expanded composition.

New military doctrine was approved in Belarus

On April 25, 2024, it became officially known that the All-Belarusian People's Assembly approved the updated concept of national security and military doctrine, which is the last stage of approval of these documents.

According to the head of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation, Viktor Khryenin, the military doctrine indicated "sources of threats to Belarus" and also warned about "the resolution of the internal conflict by the hands of pseudo-Belarusian extremist organisations such as the Kalinovsky regiment."

Lukashenko's regime continues to frighten Belarusians with "Poland's regional ambitions", which it may try to implement with the use of force.

"This is what we are facing today on our southern and western borders. At the same time, provocations, armed actions and incidents on the part of our neighbors are not in themselves a military conflict, but they can become a catalyst for its resolution," Khryenin lies cynically .

Trump commented on the decision to stop funding for Voice of America

What is important to understand is that on March 15, it became known that many Voice of America employees were placed on "administrative" leave without the right to access their emails and perform their work.

After a loud scandal broke out, the White House decided to explain its unexpected decision.

Against this backdrop, Donald Trump's team has announced a series of claims against the Voice of America. Among the accusations are "violation of journalistic standards and avoidance of responsibility."

In particular, these are the following cases:

  • 5 years ago, the broadcaster wrote about a possible "Russian trace" in the scandal with the laptop of former US President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, which the Trump administration perceived as an attempt to "hide the truth."

  • Voice of America management urged employees not to call Hamas and its members terrorists, "except when quoting official statements."

  • In 2019, the broadcaster released a story about transgender migrants seeking asylum in the United States.

According to journalists, the White House has also canceled funding for the RFE/RL network (Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty).
