July 24. State Duma - Raises VAT, Ministry of Defense - selects cars
News (with long comments)
The State Duma adopted a law on an increase in VAT to 20% (the main thing - remember that Putin had nothing to do with it, he did not participate in the development of the bill and the document will be reluctantly signed, with a sad person).
The Ministry of Defense proposed to register cars in the military enlistment office and give their armies in wartime (do not be shy, demand an apartment immediately. And in peacetime too).
The FSIN will create in all regions of the commission to check the torture messages (it would still be nice that they work normally, and not as usual).
Israel shot down the Syrian fighter “dry” over the Golans (fortunately, it is unlikely that it will have special consequences, but still unpleasant - this happened for the first time in four years).
The French farmers tore the stage “Tour de France”, having blocked the track with hay bales, and demanded the payment of European subsidies (by the way, they also do not pay subsidies, but for some reason, the police from the police, for some reason, got it mainly to them).
The DPRK began to dismantle another nuclear landfill (and what are you ready for, when in addition to unlimited power you really want the Nobel Prize of the world?).
Fifa nominated for Cherchesova for the title of the best coach of the year (in the competitors of Desha, Zidan, Klopp, Allegri. They are all very cool, but none of them are cosmos!).
History of the day (with short descriptions)
About robots-callouses. In Russia, 40 thousand temples, and at the current rate of construction will soon be almost twice as much. There are not enough professional bells for all churches, so now they began to replace them with robots . This is cool and technological, but probably somewhat soulless.
About Russian hackers (again). This time they hacked the systems of hundreds of electric networks in the United States. Attackers from the Dragonfly group abducted data on the device of networks used by the equipment and management of them. But what they want to do with these data is unclear. It is possible to program equipment for controlled failures in the future.
About "White helmets." Russian officials really do not like this Syrian organization of rescuers - they accuse her of provocations, staging shootings and almost in support of terrorism. “White helmets”, in turn, do not particularly love Russia and claim that Russian planes are bombing cities with civilians. Now the “white helmets” are evacuated from Syria - and for ordinary residents of the country, this is certainly bad news.
And the picture about what Moscow needs (you were right, Elon Musk!)
