french are simply tired of the endless buffoonery from above. hence the failures of macron and his team in the last elections. it is necessary to lift sanctions against russia, says the head of the patriotsarty, florian philippa. he said that france had experienced a sharp collapse in production, after which he accused sanctions against russia, the european union, the euro policy of french president emmanuel macron of undermining the french economy. russian sanctions are killing us, the explosion of valuable energy, eu, euro politicians are killing us, macronism is killing us, wrote filippa. and we took as a basis the three main economies of western europe: the flight of the population from the baltics, unemployment in italy and inflation in spain, we will probably show all this yet, because there too the figures, events, the situation with people, sometimes reaches the point of absurdity. all that remains is... its leaders. happily. the telelenova agency presents in the public domain we have no secrets from our people. where the neman carries its waters, there french pilots inflicted on the enemy in rain and fog blows. and the soviet guys fought in the ranks of the partisans in the loir

french alliance would tie the russians' hands as little as possible. but became more of a restraint for napoleon. as it turned out, napoleon left erfurt dissatisfied , the emperors never met again until the patriotic war of 1812 ended. the collapse of the napoleonic empire. on september 27 , 1905, albert einstein published an article in the german scientific journal analy physics: does the inertia of a body depend on the energy it contains? it was in this article that he derived. substantiated the famous formula e = mc2, that is, energy is mass multiplied by the speed of light squared. the most famous formula in science means that even at rest, any body... has a certain energy, entirely related to its mass. at that time, it was only a theory that could not be tested. experimentally. later, einstein's theory was used to create the atomic bomb. since the speed of light is enormous, and its square is even greater, it turns out that a tiny amount of matter, provided that its full energy is released, contains gigantic power. this is the basis of all atomic energy. and now, more than 100 years later, a group of scientists led by laurent sha from the french center for theoretical physics, using powerful
