July 15 (Reuters) - NASA and Russia's space agency Roscosmos have signed a long-sought agreement to integrate flights to the International Space Station, allowing Russian cosmonauts to fly on U.S.-made spacecraft in exchange for American astronauts being able to ride on Russia's Soyuz, the agencies said Friday.

"The agreement is in the interests of Russia and the United States and will promote the development of cooperation within the framework of the ISS program," Roscosmos said in a statement, adding it will facilitate the "exploration of outer space for peaceful purposes."

It really sounds like grownups are starting to take over no more saber rattling.

We're either in a proxy war helping kill Russians or we're not. Making deals with Russia while we supply Ukraine? I know this doesn't sound right to anyone, because it's not.

So everyone is ok with us using Russia for the space station? This is the weirdest war and sanctions I've ever seen.
Didn't spaceX go to the space station? Why the change?

Russia is still sending gas through Ukrainian territory and still paying Ukraine transit fees.
 
Russian, Belarusian citizens will not be allowed to own firearms in Estonia.

"The coalition agreement of the Reform Party, Isamaa and the Social Democratic Party (SDE) aims to prohibit citizens of Russia and Belarus from owning guns in Estonia. Incoming interior minister Lauri Läänemets said the change will take months to implement and that repealing the weapons permits of other unfriendly people should also be considered."


Estonia getting stuff done to cripple the potential insurgency when shit kicks off here.

So what the fuck was anyway discussed in that sudden hyped up historic 'unprecedented' meeting at the State Duma today? July 15th passed and nobody has written anything.

Latest season of Stranger things.
They all agreed it was off the hooks.
Snacks was served.
 
A popular "Military-tuber" pondered about the capabilities of Russian satellites and geolocalisation devices, based on the super-poor performance of Russian AF, the Russian fighter pilots in Ukraine using some random Garmin's and that according to US Military intel, only 40% of Russian high-end cruise missiles hitting anything (super high level of malfunctioning and not hitting targets).

Or maybe it's early signs there are cracks in the Ukraine war. Several signs such as talks over Ukraine grains with Turkey an Russia, talks over over access to Crimea, NASA an Roscosomos in talks over ISS. Obviously there is a million miles to go but it would be nice to find a better place then we're in right now.

On a side note Iranian leadership right now is not willing to sell drones to Russia or buy grain from them ether. Iran understands there is a lot of Putins dealing.
 
In some kind a lot of stuff prevents to get the same help for Ukr....cos internal political problems in some countries and even if they aren't about ukraine...

I'm not willing to mention country but situation is damn tense.
Despite both: parliament and president are pro U.S oriented....
Just cos one small unimportant bullshit....

President wants that parliament will apporwe some change in constitution....
Parliament refused....
Then he threated to dismiss parliament and....had been told to read constitution carefully.

If citizens will agree with president's position ...then new parliament's elections will be done.
If NO....then this attempt will be....automatically impeachment for....president...done...with 0 chances to avoid anything....

He just attemted to act with parliament like he is ruling presidental republic in country where lawmaker is ....parlament...

+ in this case due to question done...why...it 100% will be impeachment done for president.

Okey...I don't want to discuss about country.
BTW imho president is good and usable. Just he looks that had forget...constitution.
Due to small unimportant stuff he wants to make changed...
Damn and found right moment?

Idiotism in highest level.

This country once had one PM attempting to act like....he is Kim or Putin.
When parliament get balls to show him constitution and he had first time in his life to read constitution...
He resigned from his post in the same day.

Hope president will not repeat in his footsteps...

I guess it comes down to if you believe the us national security adviser or Iran. Personally I wouldn't have a clue because I trust em both as far as I can throw them.

"US doubles down on claim that Iran wants to sell drones to Russia | Weapons News | Al Jazeera" https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/...laim-that-iran-wants-to-sell-drones-to-russia


Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, on Saturday reiterated his statement made earlier this week that Iran wants to sell weapons-capable unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to Moscow.

He released satellite imagery to the US-based CNN network that purportedly showed that a Russian delegation visited an airfield in central Kashan at least twice in the last month.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian has denied the US claims in a phone call with his Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba on Friday, saying Iran will not do anything to prolong the fighting.

Amirabdollahian said the claims are aimed at advancing the US’s political goals as they came right before US President Joe Biden began his tour of the Middle East, with a united stance against Iran being a major agenda of the trip.

“The fundamental and explicit stance of the Islamic republic in opposing war and supporting a stop to the war is not based on a double standard like some Western countries,” Amirabdollahian told Kuleba, adding that Iran also opposes the fighting in Afghanistan, Yemen and Palestine.

 


A legit "No" or negotiating tactic?
 
US getting tired of hearing about Russia an China hypersonic weapons. This is a newly released photo from 2004 of US mark 9.6 hypersonic test of their future hypersonic plane test. It still stands as the fastest plane ever tested. Sending a message to Russia an China we been doing this way longer.

Here is grainy footage of some trucks (even here you can see that none of those vehicles is a HIMARS launcher), cut, footage of a cruise missile launch, cut and extremely grainy footage of smoke. IT CAN ONLY MEAN HIMARS = DESTROYED.
Perfect example of willing to believe absolutely anything.



Russian foreign ministry extra mad about Swiss paper publishing a picture of Putin, issues a press release. Threatens possible legal action, freedom of speech does not mean you can insult people and spread fakes (lol)
