PARIS, Feb 23 (Reuters) - The U.S. ambassador to France, Charles Kushner, has been banned from meeting members of the French government after not showing up at the Foreign Affairs ministry earlier in the day.








An investigation by Hunterbrook Media has found that the American technology company Ubiquiti is supplying Russia with equipment used by the Russian military in its war against Ukraine, including for drone operations, circumventing sanctions. The deliveries are routed through third countries, including Turkey, Armenia, and Kazakhstan. According to Hunterbrook Media, Ubiquiti radio bridges - wireless long-range data transmission devices that do not require cables - are widely used by the Russian military to maintain communications between units and to operate drones. Approximately 80% of the radio bridges used by the Russian armed forces at the front are manufactured by Ubiquiti. There are effectively no alternatives to this equipment. As part of the investigation, a journalist posing as a Russian officer procuring equipment for his unit contacted online stores selling Ubiquiti products in Russia. Many of these retailers use the company’s brand in their domain names and website designs, and some explicitly claim to be "official" distributors. Around ten sellers agreed to supply equipment for the needs of the Russian armed forces. Hunterbrook Media also contacted Ubiquiti’s official distributors. The Armenian-based company ITsupport agreed to ship sanctioned equipment to Russia. The American firm Multilink Solutions initially stated it could deliver directly to Russia, later withdrew that offer, but subsequently agreed to arrange shipment via Turkey. An analysis of trade data shows that the total value of Ubiquiti shipments crossing the border into Russia surged 66% after the invasion despite U.S. and EU sanctions and export controls. Ubiquiti itself claims it is unaware of where its distributors resell the equipment. At the same time, as Hunterbrook Media notes, the company has not announced a complete withdrawal from the Russian market since the war began. Although Ubiquiti’s website no longer lists official distributors and resellers in Russia and Belarus, an archived version of the site from 2014 includes a list of Russian partners - many of whom continue to operate and sell Ubiquiti products in Russia.

George Conway: “This is a criminal president and a criminal administration. This is straight out fascism. They want to intimidate and scare people. This is about the election. This is about ending democracy. These people are destroying the Constitution. They are using the mechanism of armed officers with masks who are killing citizens to create disruption so they can use more force to eliminate the possibility they could be removed from office and suffer criminal sanctions for the crimes they are now committing”


‼️‼️🇨🇳🇮🇷🇺🇲 Over the past several days, more than 20 cargo aircraft have arrived in Iran from China, reportedly delivering unidentified cargo. It is believed that China is attempting to provide covert assistance to Iran ahead of potential U.S. strikes, preparing Tehran for possible surprises. China is expected to be supplying Iran with large quantities of air defense systems and missiles, as well as advanced electronic warfare systems and other high-value military equipment.

BREAKING: President @realDonaldTrump announces formation of framework for future Greenland deal after meeting with NATO chief. Removes threat of tariffs. Markets rebound strongly. Davos sighs so hard with relief, fears of instant avalanches.


🇺🇸🇳🇴🇬🇱 Il y a un fou à la tête des États-Unis. C’est lunaire. Donald Trump a rédigé une lettre délirante adressée au Premier ministre norvégien Jonas Gahr Støre, dans laquelle il cite la décision du comité Nobel de ne pas lui attribuer le prix Nobel de la paix comme principale raison de son souhait d’acquérir le Groenland auprès du Danemark. Selon PBS News, des membres du personnel du Conseil de sécurité nationale des États-Unis (NSC) ont transmis la lettre à plusieurs ambassadeurs européens à Washington. Le texte intégral de la lettre est le suivant : Cher Ambassadeur, Le président Trump a demandé que le message suivant, partagé avec le Premier ministre Jonas Gahr Støre, soit transmis à votre [chef de gouvernement/chef d’État nommé]. « Cher Jonas, Étant donné que ton pays a décidé de ne pas me donner le prix Nobel de la paix pour avoir mis fin à 8 guerres, ET PLUS, je ne me sens plus obligé de penser uniquement à la Paix, même si elle restera toujours prédominante, mais je peux désormais réfléchir à ce qui est bon et approprié pour les États-Unis d’Amérique. Le Danemark ne peut pas protéger ce territoire contre la Russie ou la Chine, et pourquoi aurait-il de toute façon un “droit de propriété” ? Il n’existe aucun document écrit, c’est seulement qu’un bateau y a accosté il y a des centaines d’années, mais nous aussi, nous avions des bateaux qui y accostaient. J’ai fait plus pour l’OTAN que n’importe quelle autre personne depuis sa création, et maintenant, l’OTAN devrait faire quelque chose pour les États-Unis. Le monde ne sera pas en sécurité tant que nous n’aurons pas un contrôle complet et total du Groenland. Merci ! Président DJT. »

Gavin Newsom, Governor of California at Davos, does not hold back in criticising Keir Starmer and the European Union for capitulating to Trump, "I can't take this complicity, people rolling over, I should have brought a bunch of kneepads for all the world leaders" "I hope people understand how pathetic they look on the world stage, it's embarrassing" "One thing Europeans can't do is what they've been doing, they've been played. Trump is playing folks for fools" "Europeans need to stand tall, stand firm, stand united" "A year ago you should have this conversation, you didn't, and now you're paying the price" "Trump is a recking ball, you're still playing with an old set of rules" "It's the law of the jungle. The rule of Don" "The goal is the world in his image" "Why don't politicians do what they say privately, publicly' "Everyone is laughing behind his back, meanwhile they're sucking up to him, it's embarrassing" "This is not diplomacy, this is stupidity" "Trump has a police state" "Have you seen what's happening with ICE?" "Wake up, where the hell has everybody been?"

Remarquable Claude #Malhuret ! #Trump : "Il rend crédible la thèse #Krasnov." "Il obtient un jouet, lui arrache une jambe et s'en va." "Il est incompréhensible en dehors d'une hypothèse psychiatrique." Masterclass ! Maintenant, (re-)dressons-nous ! 🇪🇺
