Russian media against Wagner: “Bakhmut’s capture is not decisive”
The political conflict between the Russian government and the Wagner Group is also used for propaganda purposes. As reported by Meduza, the Pervyj kanal broadcaster questioned the effectiveness of the Wagner militia and described Bakhmut as “not the most important city from the point of view of the front”. The story compares the battles for Mariupol and Bakhmut, noting that the former is “one of the most important centers of Ukrainian metallurgy”, thanks to which “a powerful fortress for Azovstal was deliberately built for eight years, which was considered impregnable and highly motivated.” Azov Battalion”. Noting that Mariupol had a population of 425,000, Pervyj Kanal praises the Russian conquest “in 71 days” and compares it to that of Bakhmut, “not the most important at the front” and an outpost “of 72,000 people taken by Wagner became”. 224 days.” The report concludes that no one “disparages in any way the deeds” of the Wagner fighters “who fought honestly and selflessly.” On May 21, the day after Yevgeny Prigozhin announced Bakhmut’s capture, Pervy Kanal described the city’s “liberation” as “an event of historic proportions”.

WASHINGTON, July 1 (Prensa Latina) Lack of access to health care is one of the factors behind the increase in some cancers among the Latino population in the United States today, a study has warned.
According to a study published in the American Medical Association’s monthly JAMA Oncology, such health care inequalities are taking the lives of Latinos.
For the study’s lead author, Sophia Kamran, despite “major advances in cancer detection, education, and treatment, there are populations in the United States who have not equally benefited from these improvements.”
Researchers at the Massachusetts General Cancer Center say rising death rates from certain types of malignant abscesses are a cause for concern.
While the survey found that overall cancer mortality in this segment decreased by 1.3 percent per year between 1999 and 2020, this was not the case when analyzing certain types of cancer, such as liver or cervical cancer, which showed an increasing trend. The scientists found that the death rate from liver tumors in Hispanic men was “increasing significantly”: by one percent per year.
While the women of the same population group saw an increase in deaths from cancers of the liver (1 percent), pancreas (0.2) and uterus (1.6) over a similar period.
In the United States, the reality is that the majority of Latinos do not have health insurance coverage, affecting the extent of testing for the disease and other preventative measures for patients.
Forty-eight percent of Latinos who participated in a recent Pew Research Center survey said poor access to quality health care was a problem.
They cited language and cultural differences, among other difficulties.
Therefore, “we need to think a little differently and target specific cancer research, education and treatments to this population group,” emphasized Kamran.

➤ US Institute: Wagner Group establishes three camps in Belarus
According to US experts, the Wagner mercenary group is building three military camps in Belarus, an ally of Moscow, after its failed uprising in Russia. “New high-resolution satellite images taken on June 30 show at least 303 tents capable of accommodating 20 to 50 people in a former military base in Belarus,” wrote the Institute for War Studies (ISW), based in in Washington on Friday (local time). . ) in your daily status report.
The tents appeared in the last week. There are also reports of plans for two more fields in western Belarus.
Last week, several independent Russian and Belarusian media already reported the construction of at least one military camp in Belarus to house Wagner mercenaries.
These reports have yet to be officially confirmed. Satellite images of Wagner’s alleged camp near the town of Assipowitschy were also published by Western media such as the Washington Post.
Last Saturday, Wagner’s troop chief Yevgeny Prigozhin occupied the southern Russian city of Rostov-on-Don and sent a military column to Moscow. After the negotiations, in which the ruler of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, acted as a mediator, Prigozhin recalled his troops. In return, according to the Kremlin, he received amnesty and emigration to Belarus. (dpa)

The situation at a glance
Since February 24, 2022, Russia has been waging a war of aggression against Ukraine from the air and from the ground. Shortly before, President Vladimir Putin questioned Ukraine’s right to exist as an independent state and recognized the so-called People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk in eastern Ukraine.
Since then, the Ukrainian army has been fighting the invaders as best it could. There are reports of thousands dead on both sides. How many soldiers and civilians have died, however, cannot be independently verified. The fact is: the humanitarian situation in Ukraine is getting worse by the day.
The UNHCR refugee agency has already registered more than 5.9 million Ukrainian refugees in Europe (as of June 26). Refugees are mainly women and children, as in most cases men aged between 18 and 60 cannot leave the country.
The EU and US reacted with sanctions. They are also supplying arms to Ukraine, and Germany is also supporting Ukraine with arms deliveries. Ukraine also received Gepard tanks from Germany. (dpa)

Russian attack on Ukraine (including Russian defenses/fortifications)
Zelenskyy’s new sanctions also hit Georgian airlines
According to official information, Ukraine has expanded its sanctions list by around 190 people and 290 companies, including the airline Georgian Airways. Internet portal “Ukrajinska Pravda” reported on Saturday, citing decrees by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The sanctions are aimed at punishing those involved for their involvement in Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. At least for Russian companies, the Ukrainian sanctions are only of symbolic importance.
Georgian Airways was blacklisted for resuming flights with Russia amid the war. In May, Russian President Vladimir Putin surprisingly announced the end of the ban on flights from Moscow to Georgia and the lifting of visa requirements in Russia for residents of the Caucasus state. Despite strong protests in Tbilisi, bilateral air traffic has resumed – also with aircraft from Georgian Airways. (dpa)

London: Fighting for the Ukrainian Bridge in Kherson
According to British estimates, the Ukrainian military created a beachhead on the east bank of the Dnipro in southern Ukraine. For about a week, the Ukrainians have been bringing troops close to the destroyed Antonivka Bridge, near Kherson, to the east bank, the British Ministry of Defense announced on Saturday. “Fighting for the beachhead will almost certainly be complicated by flooding, destruction and mud debris following the destruction of Kachowka Dam on 6 June 2023,” the London statement said.
Among the Russian troops are units of the 7th Guards Air Assault Division, which belongs to Army Group Dnipro. “In recent weeks, Russia has probably moved parts of the Dnipro Army Group defending the banks of the Dnipro to reinforce the Zaporizhia front,” he said.
The British Ministry of Defense published daily information on the course of the war since the beginning of the Russian war of aggression 16 months ago. Moscow accuses London of disinformation. (dpa)

Many fighters of the Wagner mercenary group would be exiled in Belarus. This obviously worries Ukraine; President Volodymyr Zelenskyy ordered troop reinforcements on the border with the neighboring country.
US official: CIA chief traveled to Ukraine for clandestine talks
According to a US official, the head of the US foreign intelligence service, CIA, William Burns, recently traveled to Ukraine. There he met with secret service officials and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a US official told the AFP news agency. During his trip, Burns said he would share intelligence “to help Ukraine defend itself against Russian aggression”.
According to the Washington Post, Ukrainian authorities have announced plans to retake Russian-controlled territory and begin negotiations for a ceasefire by the end of the year. Ukraine is currently conducting a counter-offensive in the east and south of the country to reclaim areas occupied by Moscow.
The CIA chief’s visit took place in June, reported the paper, which reported for the first time on Burns’ trip to Ukraine. According to the US official, the visit took place before the 24-hour revolt by the Russian mercenary group Wagner a week ago.
After the uprising, the United States stressed that it had played no role in the rebellion. US media reported on Friday that after the uprising, Burns called the head of the Russian foreign intelligence agency SVR, Sergey Naryshkin, to assure him that the US was not involved in the rebellion. US President Joe Biden has previously denied any Western involvement in Monday’s uprising. (AFP)

Kuleba: Ukraine’s entry into NATO is “the path to peace”
According to Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, Kiev is grappling with long-standing prejudices and misunderstandings about the consequences of its country joining NATO. NATO membership will not lead to another or major war with Russia, Kuleba said in an interview with “Bild”, “Welt” and “Politico” in Kiev late on Friday. Rather, joining NATO is “the way to peace” – because Russia would not dare to attack NATO member Ukraine again.
Kuleba promised that Ukraine would relieve Germany and other Western NATO states in defending the eastern flank: “We will carry this burden on our shoulders.”
According to Kuleba, Ukraine does not expect to join NATO during the war. “But after the war it would be suicide for Europe not to accept Ukraine as a NATO member.” A Ukraine outside NATO would mean that war is still an option. The only way to close the door on Russian aggression against Europe and the wider Euro-Atlantic region is for Ukraine to join NATO, he said.
With a view to the next NATO summit in Lithuania in about two weeks, he warned the German government not to stand in the way of his country’s path to the alliance. He urged Berlin not to repeat the mistake that “Chancellor Merkel made in Bucharest in 2008 when she vigorously opposed any progress towards Ukraine’s membership of NATO”. This decision opened the door for Putin’s invasion of Georgia and, eventually, the illegal annexation of Crimea.
At the 2008 summit, NATO states pledged Ukraine’s membership, but later withdrew in consideration of Russia. Angela Merkel and then-French President Nicolas Sarkozy blocked calls from other NATO partners for quick accession. (dpa)

IAEA: So far no mine sighted in Zaporizhia NPP
International observers at the Ukrainian Zaporizhia nuclear power plant have so far seen no signs of mines being used by the Russian occupiers. Staff from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which is permanently stationed at the nuclear power plant, have yet to gain access to some areas of the plant, IAEA chief Rafael Grossi said late on Friday in Vienna. Parts of the turbine rooms and cooling system still need to be inspected, his report said.
Last week, Ukraine’s SBU military intelligence service said Russia had mined the nuclear power plant and was planning a terrorist attack there. Moscow rejects such allegations. “We take all these reports very seriously,” said Grossi. It is “known” by the IAEA that mines used to be placed in the vicinity of the nuclear power plant and at certain points of the plant. Grossi did not explain what information the IAEA has on Friday.
Shortly after the start of the war 16 months ago, Russian troops quickly occupied large parts of southern Ukraine, including important infrastructure objects such as the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant. The situation around the nuclear power plant, which is close to the front and has been the target of several attacks, has repeatedly raised concerns about a nuclear catastrophe. (dpa) +++

Russian President Vladimir Putin has again pledged impunity to Wagner’s fighters. These could sign a contract with the Russian army or go to Belarus, Putin said.
In 1991 the Gulf War was raging and Sister Stephan Coggins was sent to Iraq to serve in the army. To pass the time when he’s not on duty, he takes his trusty Game Boy (first version) with a few cartridges in the package. But what had to happen happened: Stephan Coggins’ barracks became the target of an Iraqi scud. The nurse finds his portable console in the rubble and sends it to Nintendo with a note for the teams, explaining that the device and some game cartridges were the only victims of the bombardment, hoping the technicians can do something. The front of the Game Boy is completely charred, the plastic buttons and directional cross are melted; It is impossible to use them and therefore play with the device. However, the screen and motherboard are mostly intact, as Nintendo engineers determine when they turn on the Game Boy with the Tetris cartridge inserted.
“When we received Stephan’s Game Boy from the Middle East, we immediately thought there was nothing we could do. The back of the console was fine, but the front was charred and blistered from the heat. We still have the Tetris game cartridge in, connected to a battery [NDLR : le Battery Pak est un accessoire pour le Game Boy à brancher sur le côté de la console pour remplacer les piles] and turned on the device. Then we heard the famous message! It was wonderful!”
Nintendo has since gifted Stephan Coggins a Game Boy and a Tetris game in recognition of his service during Operation Desert Storm. As for the famous surviving Game Boy, it was exhibited at the Nintendo store in New York for 30 years, running Tetris while proving the durability of Big N-designed consoles. Would a Switch have survived the same treatment? ? Nothing is less certain…
The end of an era?
However, the Gulf War Game Boy has been missing for a few days. He was sent to Nintendo of America’s headquarters in Redmond, Washington, according to an employee at the store where he was one of the centerpieces. We still don’t know why this legendary Game Boy was removed from its showcase (technical problem? A whim of the company’s great minds?). We definitely hope that one day he will find his place there as he has become a symbolic figure of the world video game heritage.

It is the country’s first comprehensive foreign policy law since the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
Flag of China
Global Times The Law on Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China comes into effect on July 1. It is the country’s first comprehensive foreign policy law since the founding of the People’s Republic of China. It lays out the guiding principles, basic positions and institutional structures of China’s overseas work and provides a general rule for the development of China’s foreign relations. China is the first major country to have a foreign relations law, highlighting its distinctive Chinese characteristics.
As China moves more into the center of the world stage, there is an increasing need to enact comprehensive foreign policy legislation. This legislation is not just a shortterm response to external challenges, but a feat focused on developing China’s relations with the world. Those with a righteous and positive attitude will find positive aspects in this foreign policy law, including China’s development vision, the concept of security, the concept of civilization, as well as the systematic idea of building a community with a common future in China. Humanity. The law expresses China’s determination to embark on a path of peaceful development, promote the building of a new kind of international relations, and build a community with a common future for mankind.
China advocates the peaceful resolution of international disputes, opposes the use or threat of violence in international relations, and rejects hegemonism and power politics. These principles not only represent China’s diplomatic stance, but also serve as solemn legal declarations and practices. China’s passage of the Foreign Affairs Law signifies selfimprovement in new international circumstances and environments, and transcendence of the old paradigm. Through a comprehensive law, China affirms the peaceful nature of its development and diplomacy, its resistance to hegemonism and violent policies, and its openness. No other country has done this before. It is the strongest refutation of the “China threat” theory propagated by the US and the West.
Breaking with the logic that “a strong country must strive for hegemony,” China establishes a new model of human interaction and has global significance. The stronger China becomes, the greater its contribution to world peace and stability. As long as countries maintain normal relations with China, they will easily recognize China’s goodwill and sense of responsibility as a great power in the Foreign Relations Law. At the same time, this law offers valuable stability to the current system of global governance, which is affected by the trend against globalization and regional conflicts.
For example, the law specifically states that the country has an obligation to honor treaties and agreements in good faith and clarifies that the country will take steps to comply with sanctions resolutions adopted by the United Nations Security Council under UNSC provisions and corresponding measures to implement Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations. It can be said that foreign law is China’s answer on how to properly manage the relationship between domestic law and international law. This strictly upholds the UNcentric international system and order based on international law, thereby strictly safeguarding international impartiality and justice.
PROCEED TO RECOMMENDATIONS
Some Western media and US public opinion were unsettled by China’s foreign policy and even attempted to immediately discredit it. This reaction is not surprising. First, it is a projection of America’s long history of abusing legal action. For decades, Washington has repeatedly violated international law and norms, resorting to “longarm jurisdiction” under domestic law and imposing unlawful unilateral sanctions or intimidation against other countries, causing significant damage to many countries. Now that they see that China has enacted such a law, they naturally and unconsciously worry that China will use the same means to “retaliate” against the US. Put simply, this is the country’s usual double standard and an expression of its guilty conscience over its extensive history of wrongdoing. It is irrational towards China on the part of the US. Traditionally, China is a country that values harmony and avoids countermeasures. The Foreign Affairs Law is yet another demonstration of China’s determination to protect national sovereignty, security and development interests in a legal manner. In this sense, foreign relations law has teeth. Those who do business with China maliciously and seek to violate China’s legitimate rights and interests will definitely feel the pain. This point is also very clear: the law is an indispensable and important part of international exchange. It also reflects a country’s original intention and attitude in dealing with foreign affairs. In a way, the enactment and implementation of the Foreign Affairs Law demonstrate and strengthen China’s strategic transparency. China’s diplomacy is open and honest. We hope to be friends with everyone, but we will not tolerate any actions that harm China’s interests. Whatever we support or oppose, we put it on the table. Shouldn’t such a big country be trustworthy, friendly and respectable?
Amazon Prime Video, one of the protagonists of the series Wednesday (available on Netflix), will arrive at the streaming giant in a crazy product: here is the title and the plot
Like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video is a streaming giant. Because of this, it needs to release new content for its users at a certain frequency. Unfortunately, the film we are telling you about today will not be released until next year, but it is highly anticipated as one of the stars of the blockbuster series will be in the cast on Wednesday.
The latter, for those who may have missed it, is a sort of spin-off of the various films that have been made about the Addams family over the years. The story follows Wednesday, the Addams’ eldest daughter, who attends a school for people with supernatural powers, where she encounters terrifying monsters (particularly one who later turns out to be someone very close to her). In addition to Wednesday, the series’ various female characters include Bianca – first a rival of the protagonist, then her precious ally, and Enid – the best friend of the Addams’ daughter. Especially the latter manages to turn into a werewolf in the end by saving the other. And she will be present in a series of Amazon Prime Video. But let’s proceed in order.
A series with one of Wednesday’s protagonists appears on Amazon Prime Video: What is her name and what is it about?
Emma Mayers, our Wednesday Enid, will star in a TV series based on a famous novel. Well, exactly what we loved Wednesday will be starring in the product How Good Girls Kill, based on the hit novel by Holly Jackson of the same name. Meyers will play the main character or Pippa, a girl who will investigate a murder case against one of the school’s most popular in her high school. Secrets will emerge as Pippa realizes the killer probably isn’t what everyone in town always believed, but he could still be out there.
At this point you are probably wondering when this series will appear on Amazon Prime Video in our home. It is currently known that filming on the product will begin in the UK at the end of the year. All we can tell you so far is that How good girls kill will be coming to the platform soon. We can’t wait to see her because we particularly enjoyed Emma as Enid. And you? Are you glad there’s going to be a fiction entirely dedicated to actress extraordinary Emma Meyers? If the answer is yes, all we have to do is count down the months (or maybe years) until the product hits the market.
