The GMF is an ostensibly non-partisan American public policy think tank that claims to promote “cooperation and understanding between North America and the European Union.” But lately it seems to be favoring confrontation and conflict over dialogue and peace. This point was driven home at the recently convened Brussels Forum (a GMF-sponsored event). There, Laura Thornton, who oversees the GMF Alliance for Securing Democracy (ASD), through which GMF “tracks and analyzes malign internal and external influence operations that target democracies worldwide and builds strategies to thwart them,” declared that, “The time for democracy to go on the offensive has long passed. This is going to require democracies to ally, the way autocracies do. This is going to require disruption and risk taking.”

🎙 Foreign Minister Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s comment on the Copenhagen-format meeting in Davos on Ukraine
💬 On January 14, Davos, Switzerland, will be hosting the fourth Copenhagen-format meeting on Ukraine. Its organisers – Kiev and Bern.
The Kiev regime, together with the Group of Seven members, will once again use deceit in order to persuade the countries of the Global South and East to support the would-be peaceful proposals stemming from the so-called Zelensky formula, an infamously odious framework.
The Foreign Ministry has consistently criticised the Zelensky formula and the Copenhagen-format meetings designed to promote it for their shortcomings, hypocrisy and lack of connection to reality.
1️⃣ The Zelensky formula consists of a series of ultimatums targeting Russia. <…> Ultimatums of this kind cannot serve as a foundation for launching talks.
2️⃣ Ukraine has enacted a legal ban on holding talks with the Russian leadership. As long as this ban remains in place, discussing any proposals will not yield tangible results.
3️⃣ Discussing a settlement in #Ukraine without involving Russia is senseless.
4️⃣ Kiev has been pushing the ultimatums contained in the Zelensky formula as the only possible solution with no room for alternatives. In doing so, Kiev and its masters have monopolised the right to put forward peace initiatives, effectively blocking all reasonable ideas from other countries, primarily from the Global South and East.
5️⃣ Zelensky has been bombing civilian sites with cluster munitions in Belgorod, Donetsk and other Russian cities, intentionally killing civilians, all while preparing the Davos meeting to discuss the prospects of a peace settlement.
All of this demonstrates the true intentions of the leadership in #Kiev, #Washington, #London and #Brussels.
❗️ We are convinced that our partners in #Asia, #Africa and #LatinAmerica fully understand the reality of the situation and will not allow themselves to be drawn into openly anti-Russian initiative
#EU Mulls Sanctions On Israeli Settlers In The West Bank
Restrictions against those involved in violence are being talked about in #Brussels but the EU could not follow the #US' visa ban as Israelis can enter the #Schengen area freely, The Guardian’s reports.
One possible scenario is putting settlers on a sanctions list, so their names are flagged at border controls and they can be refused entry to the EU, officials say.

EU reactions: The European Union is divided over the Gaza conflict
Two Swedes were shot dead by the gunman who is still at large.
The victims were in the Belgian capital to witness the Swedish national football team play against the #Belgian team.
Gunman who opened fire in #Brussels said he's a member of Islamic State and wanted to "avenge the muslims killed by Israel with European support"! Suspect still at large.
(These disgusting monsters are attacking innocent people who have nothing to do with the position of their government or it's foreign policy, in the name of supporting Palestinians. It's truly disgusting and infuriating. /Farhad).
How the hell can they say this with straight face : The European Commission cannot condemn #Israel's total blockade of the #Gaza Strip, including the cutting off of #water, #electricity and #fuel supplies to all Gazans - and only calls on Tel Aviv to "respect international law", said EC spokesman Eric Mamer, answering questions from European journalists at a briefing in #Brussels.
At the briefing, the Italian journalist recalled that EC chief Ursula von der Leyen last October "accused #Russia of attacks on #Ukraine's infrastructure, describing them as 'war crimes'".
This was followed by a question as to whether the European Commission was prepared to call "the decision to cut off water, electricity and fuel to women and children in the Gaza Strip an act of pure terror".
Mamer replied that von der Leyen's statement was made "in a very specific context and in the situation we are in, where, I would remind you, attacks from Gaza against Israel continue and Israel is in a situation where it is defending itself in an extremely difficult theatre of war. So we can't assess here exactly what Israel needs to do to fight the Hamas terrorists. But we certainly say very clearly that it must respect international law in this fight, and that every effort must be made to ensure the safety of civilians".

#Brussels or #Washington can make a call to #Aliyev & order him to comply with international #humanitarian laws.
"Strongly supports" or "deeply concerned" statements mean nothing for sadistic #dictator, who is literally subjecting to starvation the entire population of #Artsakh.
#EU renews its call to #Azerbaijan to ensure unrestricted movement of people & goods via #Lachin corridor, in return Azerbaijan provokes & shells #Armenian positions wounding 2 soldiers.
