Russian plunder of Polish archives

"After all, one went to the archives of the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Moscow, where the Lithuanian Metrica and parts of our Crown Archives were kept, as one would go to the Archives Nationales in Paris, and to the Imperial Public Library in St. Petersburg with the Załuski collections, as one would go to the Vatican Library. In order to save at least part of the most valuable collections of these exported archives, the Soviet Delegation agreed during the peace negotiations in Riga to such a general and broad formulation of point 1 only on condition of supplementing it with point 7 of Article XI." "Pamiętajmy zresztą, że poza. Księgozbiorami, w charakterystyczny zresztą dla państwa rosyjskiego sposób, starano się wywieźć na wschód, pamięć instytucjonalną narodu, czyli archiwa, archiwa państwowa. Wywieziono zatem do Petersburga i archiwum koronne i metrykę litewską. Archiwum koronne wróci do nas, na mocy traktatu ryjskiego. Metryka litewska. Praktycznie nie, ponieważ. Strona sowiecka będzie. Argumentować, że jest to wspólne dobro narodów litewskiego, polskiego, ukraińskiego i białoruskiego, a więc także narodów należących do Rosji sowieckiej. I nie wolno tego przekazywać jednej stronie."

China's Five-Year Plan: Tech Independence

"Now we have to look at the next five-year plan, which was announced in China in March, and there are concepts that already tell us what kind of China it might be, primarily technologically independent, one that will regulate access to technology, components, rare earth metals, and will take from abroad what it needs, and what it wants to give abroad it will ration. Let's imagine, or let's imagine, that if there's only 0.1% of the composition of these rare earth metals, it must obtain a certificate or simply an attestation that it can go outside. And so, China itself is to be independent and will also ration. It will be, that's how it is, who will even be able to produce cars, in which, as we've already said here, the Chinese are already achieving this. What else is there? There's robotics, there's artificial intelligence, there's green energy and a green economy, and by 2030, 12% of the economy is to be produced by robots with AI algorithms, because there will be a move away from human labor, because there are demographic problems, so a completely new society based on technology is being created, with China at the forefront of this process. "
