EU to introduce new sanctions against Belarus and Wagner
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

[ColonelCassad] 1. Europe has introduced new personal sanctions against Belarus in connection with the situation around migrants on the border with Poland.

2. Belarus has already officially announced that it will give a tough answer. Among the options, blocking the transit of European goods through Belarus and blocking the transit of gas.

3. After the Kremlin sent Merkel to communicate directly with Lukashenko, she was forced to call him today and discuss the situation on the border with Poland with the "illegitimate president" for about an hour.

As it turned out, if necessary, they are even ready to talk with Lukashenka. But with "President Tikhanovskaya" for some reason no one is in a hurry to discuss "ways to resolve the migration crisis."

4. Russia has traditionally stated that what is happening is a showdown between the EU and Belarus, and it has nothing to do with it.

Of course, even if Russia has something to do with it, the logic of the game requires you to say that you have nothing to do with it. Therefore, regardless of what Russia has to do with it, during today's talks between Macron and Putin, Macron was directly told that the solution to the problem lies in the EU’s negotiations with Lukashenka (which de facto means disavowing the policy of non-recognition of Lukashenka).

Call Mekel Lukashenko is the first swallow, but not the last. This is to the question of whether Lukashenka has a profit from what is happening.

And more about the sanctions.
The EU announced the imposition of sanctions against the Wagner PMC for the fact that Wagner got completely unbridled and entered Mali, from where the French were asked to leave, who are losing another country from their crumbling neo-colonial empire.

A particularly touching reason is that the Wagner PMC is interfering in foreign conflicts. They are blathering about this in the EU, the troops of the member states of which have been hanging out in Afghanistan for 20 years and not so long ago happily scrambled out of there. It is quite obvious that the decision is lobbied by France, which in Africa is not being kicked only by the lazy. It is quite understandable that Wagner has acted and will continue to do so in Africa.

In addition to Wagner itself, veiled threats are also directed at the local military junta, which is threatened to be deprived of all economic aid if it continues to flirt with the Russians. Of course, if she adhered to a subordinate position in relation to France, then no claims against the Malian military junta would arise. There is exactly one problem - she communicates with the wrong people. Therefore, now it can easily fall under the sanctions, the introduction of which France is seeking.

It is reported that Russian military instructors are already training the military in Mali to throw a flounder correctly, since the French could not teach them this.
