Putin thanked the ministers for their hard work and asked them to function as a caretaker government until a new one can be formed. The cabinet is resigning in accordance with Article 117 of the Russian Constitution, which states that the government can offer its resignation to the president, who can either accept or reject it. Putin is creating the position of deputy secretary of Russia’s Security Council to be offered to Medvedev. Putin proposed multiple amendments to Russia’s constitution. His proposals would entail substantial changes to the balance of power. www.rt.com/russia/478340-government-resigns-russia-putin-medvedevwww.rt.com/russia/478343-medvedev-security-council-after-resignationI wonder if this is related to our new gold backed currency which Russia and China will also go for.

Russia has come a long way since 1993 July 1, 2020 - What are the reasons behind the proposed Constitution amendments? Russia has undergone major transformation since 1993 under President Boris Yeltsin. Russia in 1993 and Russia in 2020 are 2 different countries. In 1993 it was a shadow of the Soviet Union. The Yeltsin Constitution wasn’t fit as the supreme law. In 2020 Russia is completely different. President Vladimir Putin’s policies have been Russia first, and enjoyed widespread support among the ruling elites as well as the general population. www.rt.com/russia/493411-constitution-amendments-russia-putinVOTE Constitutional amendments vote in RussiaRussians are heading to the polls voting on amendments to their constitution.

Cold War treaties ignored ChinaOctober 27, 2020 Scott Ritter Russian President Vladimir Putin offered a moratorium on the deployment of intermediate-range nuclear forces on European soil by suggesting that Russia and the US/NATO engage in on-site inspections regarding the Aegis Ashore systems equipped with Mk 41 launchers at US and NATO bases in Europe and the 9M729 missiles at Russian military facilities in the Kaliningrad Region. This could confirm the absence from the facilities of ground-launched intermediate and shorter range missiles and weapons which have remained a controversy. Putin has kept alive both the prospects of an INF-free Europe, and a global INF ban that could see the INF Treaty reborn as a multilateral arms control agreement. The Mk 41 and the 9M729 have been at the center of controversy between the US and Russia, with both sides claiming that they constituted violations of the 1987 INF Treaty. Russia denies the 9M729 missile violate that treaty by exceeding the permissible range. The USA withdrew from the INF Treaty in August 2019. www.rt.com/op-ed/504628-putin-nuclear-missiles-europe/

Massacre in Russian Urals Nov 10, 2020 A survivor of a bloody attack that left three dead in Ekaterinburg, at the weekend, has told of how she hid from a rampaging gunman beneath the body of another party guest, who was shot and fell on top of her. The survivor, 16-year old Maria Kosintseva, ‘played dead’ for four hours after gunman Dmitry Zakharov, 34, opened fire at the gathering, held in his apartment in the central Russian city, on Friday night. He reportedly shot dead three people and injured a fourth, killing himself before police arrived. In an interview with Ekaterinburg’s Channel Four, the young woman spoke of how Zakharov allegedly entered the room “with a machine gun,” saying “let’s play,” and then began shooting at guests. www.rt.com/russia/506218-massacre-victim-played-dead/Russia's fought Chechyn murdering Muslim terrorists for years Russian peacekeepers for Armenia Nov 10, 2020 A new video from Armenia shows a column of military trucks moving out of the town of Goris.

The real danger is not a Russian invasion, but that the Ukrainian government will misinterpret American signals of support as a green light for an assault on the rebel republics in Donbass, eastern Ukraine. Crimea belongs to Russia. Since spring 2014, the Ukrainian army has been fighting rebel forces in Donbass in eastern Ukraine. That is a conflict the 0bama admin started. www.rt.com/russia/520127-ukraine-donbass-open-warRussia-US talks about Ukraine Apr 6, 2021 Amid fears of worsening clashes in eastern Ukraine, Russian and American diplomats have held talks in an effort to forestall an all-out conflict. Russian Minister Sergey Ryabkov said - we have had contact with the US administration on the situation in the Donbass.
