Countries capable of feeding themselves — and Russia looks fairly solid on that front. 🌾

Only one country in the world is fully self-sufficient across all seven major food groups — meat, dairy, fish, starchy staples, legumes and nuts, fruits, and vegetables — and that country is… Guyana.

📢 Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has announced that the legalization of more than 500,000 migrants will be approved today, calling it “an act of justice.”

He compared today’s migrants to “our grandparents, who emigrated to the United States and Europe in search of a better life,” and said the move is necessary because Spain, like other European countries, is aging. Without new people working and contributing to the system, he argued, the country’s prosperity will slow.

‼️👥📊Six million people have been forced to flee their homes since October 2023 – more than two years of Israeli aggression in Palestine, Lebanon and Iran.

🇺🇳 This figure is cited by human rights activist Rami Abdou, Chairman of the Euro-Mediterranean Review of Human Rights, based on reports from the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNHCR; UN OCHA).

🇵🇸In Gaza, displacement has become a repeated reality. Entire neighborhoods have been destroyed, while Israeli evacuation orders have pushed civilians from one area to another, often into places that are later targeted again. Today, the vast majority of Gaza’s population has been displaced, many of them multiple times.

🇱🇧In Lebanon, escalating Israeli airstrikes have driven more than a million people from their homes. Towns in the south, the Bekaa, and parts of Beirut have emptied rapidly, as civilians fled under the threat of continued bombardment.

🇮🇷In Iran, the widening scope of the conflict has forced millions to flee major cities, as regional attacks intensified and fears of further escalation spread.

In the very first shots of the new trailer for The Wizard of the Kremlin, Moscow in 1990 is shown with an ice rink and the Iberian Gate on Red Square. As the saying goes, there is no need to watch any further. 🎬

⚠️ Context — The Iberian Gate is the reconstructed entrance linking Manezhnaya Square to Red Square; it was demolished in the Soviet period and rebuilt only in the 1990s, so showing it in Moscow in 1990 is an obvious anachronism. For Russian viewers, period details around late Soviet and early post-Soviet Moscow are highly legible, which is why visual mistakes like this are noticed immediately.
⚠️ Why it matters — The complaint is not really about one gate or one ice rink, but about trust: if the opening frames already get iconic Moscow geography wrong, viewers expect the film’s treatment of Russian history to be equally careless. In Russia, that kind of error quickly becomes shorthand for a foreign production that wants the atmosphere of the era without understanding its texture.

Russian services blocking access for users with VPNs enabled is a disaster. 🌐

In a world drowning in choice, where everyone is fighting for even a single second of a user’s attention, putting up a barrier in front of your own customer is madness. It is roughly the same thing Western companies did four years ago — spend decades fighting for the Russian market, only to walk away and throw it all out overnight.

If Yandex stops letting in the “wrong” users, they will poke around a couple of times, get frustrated, and simply switch to Google instead. 🧱

And just like that, those same decades of fighting for the customer will be flushed down the toilet in a matter of months.
