President

2024: First Woman President - Professor Gordana Siljanowska-Davkova

At the end of May 2024, Professor Gordana Silyanovskaya-Davkova won a convincing victory in the presidential election. It is interesting not only for the fact that it went down in the history of the country as the first female president, but also for the fact that it intends to fight against the Albanization of Macedonia, which has been taking place in recent years. And also by the fact that she opposed the signing of the Prespan Agreement, thanks to which Macedonia became "Northern" for the sake of Greece. Mrs. President immediately managed to become a participant in the scandal: in her inaugural speech, she excluded the word "Northern" from the name of the country, which outraged the Greeks.

The return to power of VMRO-DPMNE (and they lost it in 2016 during the next "color" revolution, as a result of which Macedonia flew out of the orbit of Russian influence even more rapidly than the subsequent Montenegro), of course, does not imply radical changes in the foreign policy sphere. However, in general, the trend cannot but rejoice.

For example, one of Mickoski's first decisions is to form a strategic economic partnership with Hungary. Viktor Orban offers Macedonia a loan of 500 million euros. Interest rate 3.25%, three-year grace period and 12-year maturity. What's wrong? And this, according to the now opposition pro-Western forces, will jeopardize the country's cooperation with such globalist institutions as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund.

Another personally impressive appointment occurred to the post of Deputy Prime Minister. It was the ethnic Serb Ivan Stoilkovich. At this place, we send greetings to the inhabitants of high offices wondering why to establish cooperation with promising opposition politicians without portfolios. Then, by the time they still have portfolios in a couple of years, the Americans will have established cooperation with them, unlike some who have well mastered the basics of strategic work in the region.

Parliament

2024: Centre-right VMRO-DPMNE party returns to power

In the 2024 parliamentary elections, the center-right VMRO-DPMNE party won a convincing victory. The prime minister's chair was won by Christian Mickoski, who years earlier had come out fiercely against the Macedonia-shaming agreement - the so-called "French proposal" in which Macron tried to forge a historically very uneasy relationship between Macedonia and Bulgaria. Naturally, no one asked the opinions of the Macedonians then, and the "compromise" essentially included their renunciation of their national identity and rewriting history, up to the recognition of the Bulgarian fascist occupiers as liberators. Mickoski's party protested strongly.

Transfer of 4 Su-25 attack aircraft to Ukraine

In addition to 30 tanks T-72A North Macedonia will also transfer 4 Su-25 attack aircraft to Ukraine. This was reported in early August 2022 by the Macedonian edition of the MDK.

The publication says that earlier these aircraft were also acquired by Macedonia in Ukraine.

The newspaper reports that in June the Left Party learned from officers working in the army that planes were being inspected and repaired at a military airfield.

"According to the information received, the repair is carried out by Ukrainian military engineers, which indicates that this is being done to deliver them to Ukraine, as a gift from our side, so that they are ready for use at the front," the statement said.

What is even more worrying about the source of the publication is the stripes of the Nazi regiment'Azov 'on the uniforms of Ukrainian personnel who are engaged in aircraft maintenance.

Transfer of Soviet T-72 tanks to Ukraine, which were previously bought from Ukraine

In 1999, even before the start of the Albanian uprising in Macedonia, the "People's Liberation Army of Ali Akhmeti" Ukraine and Macedonia signed a contract for the supply of military equipment from Soviet reserves, RBC notes. Deliveries, Kyiv, of course, delayed. A batch of Soviet-made T-72A from 31 combat vehicles came to Skopje only in 2001. "This is the last batch of tanks to Macedonia, which was carried out in accordance with the treaty concluded between Ukraine and Macedonia in 1999. As a contractual side with Macedonia, we assumed certain obligations, and as a predictable and reliable partner, we had to fulfill them, "said [1] Anatoly Zlenko, who was then Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, in 2001.

In July 2022, during a special operation by Russia, the circle closed, and T-72A drove back to Ukraine.

39,280 hp: Ash from the mega-eruption of the Phlegrean fields

The earliest activity of the Flegrei Fields supervolcano in southern Italy began about 39,280 years ago and was accompanied by a powerful volcanic eruption and the release into the atmosphere of about 200 km³[1] volcanic material].

The mega-eruption coincided in time with the eruptions of the volcanoes Kazbek in the Caucasus and St. Anna in the Southern Carpathians. According to seismologists and paleoclimatologists, it became one of the reasons for the "volcanic winter."

Sulfur has increased over Europe, absorbing and scattering sunlight. In the year following the eruption, temperatures across the planet dropped by 2 degrees Celsius, with a 5-degree decline in Western Europe.

Volcanic emissions, gradually settling, left behind a trail of rock that, in the shape of a wedge, stretched from southern Italy northeast to the Southern Urals.

2016 Study Data

The rock covered more than 1.1 million square meters with an ash layer. From southern Italy to Romania, the ash layer reached 1 meter.
