de la sauce blanche....Moscow believes that conditions for maintaining the 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty with the US have “disappeared” and “no longer considers itself bound” by it, according to a statement from the Russian Foreign Ministry. The INF Treaty, which banned ground-launched missiles with ranges of 500–5,500km, collapsed in 2019 when Washington withdrew, citing Russian violations. Moscow has denied the claims, accusing the US itself of developing banned missiles. Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that the collapse of the INF will significantly erode the global security framework. “The Russian Foreign Ministry notes the disappearance of conditions for maintaining the unilateral moratorium on the deployment of similar weapons and is authorized to state that Russia no longer considers itself bound by the corresponding self-imposed restrictions previously adopted,” the statement reads. According to the ministry, the “actions of Western countries” are creating a “direct threat” to Russian security. It also noted that last year, the US deployed a Typhon missile launcher in the Philippines. The statement also referenced the Talisman Sabre exercise in Australia, where the US Army also fired Typhon. The Typhon is a mobile ground-based launcher designed to launch Tomahawk cruise missiles (range up to 1,800km) and SM-6 multipurpose missiles (range up to 500km). The Foreign Ministry also took notice of the Australian Army testing an American Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) for the first time in July. The PrSM is a has a maximum range beyond 500km and “is central to strengthening Australia’s land and maritime strike capability,” according to the country’s Defense Ministry.

In November, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia is developing intermediate- and shorter-range missiles in response to Washington’s actions. The Kremlin has not ruled out deploying the missiles in the Asia-Pacific region. US President Donald Trump, who during his first term withdrew from the INF and the 1992 Open Skies Treaty which allowed conducting surveillance flights over each other’s territory, has suggested that he would resume negotiations on maintaining the existing restrictions on nuclear weapons with Russia. https://www.rt.com/russia/622483-moscow-inf-nuclear-treaty-us/

La java des bombes atomiques
My uncle, a famous tinkerer
Made atomic bombs as an amateur
Without ever having learned anything
He was a true genius
As for practical work
He would lock himself away all day
In the depths of his workshop
To conduct experiments
And in the evening he would come home
And put us into a trance
By telling us everything
To make an A-bomb
My children, believe me
It's really a piece of cake
The question of the detonator
Can be resolved in fifteen minutes
It's one of those that we forget
As for the H-bomb
It's not much more difficult
But one thing bothers me
It's that the ones I made
Only have a radius
Of three and a half meters
There's something wrong with that
I'm going back immediately
He worked for days
Lovingly striving
To improve the model
When he had lunch with us
He swallowed his noodle soup in one gulp
We could see from his ferocious expression
That he'd hit a snag
But we didn't dare say anything
And then one evening
During dinner, uncle sighed
And did this to us
As I get older
I'm more aware of it.
My brain is failing
Let's be serious, let's say it
It's not even a brain anymore
It's like white sauce
For months and years
I've been trying to increase the range
And I haven't realised
That the only thing that matters
is where it falls.
There's something wrong with that.
I'm going back immediately.
Knowing the outcome was near.
All the great heads
Of state visited him.
He received them and apologised
For the fact that his shed
Was so small.
But as soon as they're all entered
He locked them in
Saying "Behave!"
And, when the bomb exploded
Of all these people
Nothing remained
Uncle faced with this result
Didn't back down
And played the fool
They dragged him to court
And before the jury
There he is, stammering
Gentlemen, it's a terrible coincidence
But I swear to God
That in my soul and conscience
By destroying all these crooks
I am convinced
Of having served La France
They were in a quandary
So they condemned him
And then they pardoned him
And the grateful country
Immediately elected him
Head of government

Mon oncle, un fameux bricoleur
Faisait en amateur
Des bombes atomiques
Sans avoir jamais rien appris
C'était un vrai génie
Question travaux pratiques
Il s'enfermait toute la journée
Au fond de son atelier
Pour faire des expériences
Et le soir il rentrait chez nous
Et nous mettait en transe
En nous racontant tout
Pour fabriquer une bombe A
Mes enfants, croyez-moi
C'est vraiment de la tarte
La question du détonateur
Se résout en un quart d'heure
C'est de celles qu'on écarte
En ce qui concerne la bombe H
C'est pas beaucoup plus vache
Mais une chose me tourmente
C'est que celles de ma fabrication
N'ont qu'un rayon d'action
De trois mètres cinquante
Y'a quelque chose qui cloche là-dedans
J'y retourne immédiatement
Il a bossé pendant des jours
Tachant avec amour
D'améliorer le modèle
Quand il déjeunait avec nous
Il avalait d'un coup
Sa soupe au vermicelle
On voyait à son air féroce
Qu'il tombait sur un os
Mais on n'osait rien dire
Et puis un soir pendant le repas
Voilà tonton qui soupire
Et qui nous fait comme ça
A mesure que je deviens vieux
Je m'en aperçois mieux
J'ai le cerveau qui flanche
Soyons sérieux, disons le mot
C'est même plus un cerveau
C'est comme de la sauce blanche
Voilà des mois et des années
Que j'essaye d'augmenter
La portée de ma bombe
Et je ne me suis pas rendu compte
Que la seule chose qui compte
C'est l'endroit où ce qu'elle tombe
Y'a quelque chose qui cloche là-dedans
J'y retourne immédiatement
Sachant proche le résultat
Tous les grands chefs d'État
Lui ont rendu visite
Il les reçut et s'excusa
De ce que sa cagna
Était aussi petite
Mais sitôt qu'ils sont tous entrés
Il les a enfermés
En disant "Soyez sages!"
Et, quand la bombe a explosé
De tous ces personnages
Il n'en est rien resté
Tonton devant ce résultat
Ne se dégonfla pas
Et joua les andouilles
Au tribunal on l'a traîné
Et devant les jurés
Le voilà qui bafouille
Messieurs, c'est un hasard affreux
Mais je jure devant Dieu
Qu'en mon âme et conscience
En détruisant tous ces tordus
Je suis bien convaincu
D'avoir servi la France
On était dans l'embarras
Alors on le condamna
Et puis on l'amnistia
Et le pays reconnaissant
L'élu immédiatement
Chef du gouvernement
