Lower U.S. Fentanyl Deaths Linked To China’s Policies, Study Says
Synthetic opioid deaths fell sharply in 2023 and 2024 after a shock to the fentanyl supply. New evidence points to precursor controls, not enforcement, as the key driver.

It seems that every country in the world outside America, China or russia should be armed enough and have dangerous allies. So that these "spheric colonists" will bleed out if they try to start their globalism.
Idk how to do it, but admitting it is a first step, I guess.

The very idea that a nation can "own a hemisphere" is ridiculous. It's the type of deluded nonsense you'd usually hear a Dugin ramble about.
Trump’s hemisphere talk implies that China and Russia also get their own spheres of influence, which would be detrimental to the entire world.

Blackouts also in Zaporizhzhia, another Ukrainian city Russia bombed today. Mobile connection is partially down. People are asked not to use it.
Patrol officers will be informing locals about air raid sirens through loudspeakers, reports say
It’s a bit warmer here: it’s +1. And a drizzle too.
