German car manufacturer Volkswagen is for the first time in its 87-year history planning to close production sites in its home market. At least 3 manufacturing plants will be closed, the remaining plants will be downsized, and whoever keeps their job (after tens of thousands of staff lose their jobs) must accept a 10% reduction in salary and an end to their bonuses. The economic implosion of Germany will drag down the rest of Europe

The people of Georgia voted for the current government in an OSCE-approved election. But they voted the wrong way
- Now, the US/EU-financed "NGOs" will have their say by mobilising thousands of people to the streets on the principle that a loud minority should overturn elections

It is reported that several US Stratotankers (used to refuel fighter jets mid-air) are heading to the Middle East. If correct, this is a strong indication of a pending US/Israel attack on Iran

BRICS emulates the American System of the 19th century by reducing dependence on the dominant state: 1) strategic industries, 2) transportation corridors and 3) financial instruments of power

Nuclear weapons are the ultimate deterrent and can be a source of peace. The irony of the nuclear deterrent is that the destructive power can reduce the credibility of their use. The nuclear peace thus requires a credible preparedness to destroy the world

The people claiming to “support” Ukraine and Israel have for years taken maximalist positions by rejecting a workable peace and supporting escalation. The consequence has become the current all-or-nothing situation that will likely devastate both states.

Walter Lippmann (1965):
- "A mature great power will make measured and limited use of its power. It will eschew the theory of a global and universal duty, which not only commits it to unending wars of intervention, but intoxicates its thinking with the illusion that it is a crusader for righteousness... I am in favor of learning to behave like a great power, of getting rid of the globalism, which would not only entangle us everywhere, but is based on the totally vain notion that if we do not set the world in order, no matter what the price, we cannot live in the world safely… In the real world, we shall have to learn to live as a great power which defends itself and makes its way among other great powers."
The election results in Moldova reveal why EU integration will be a disaster for the country:
- 50.16% are in favor of EU membership and 49.84% are against, with pro-EU votes from abroad pushing Moldova barely over the 50% limit
- In the autonomous region of Gagauzia, 95% voted against EU integration. Forcing this region into the EU will destabilise Moldova and fuel secessionist sentiments
- Bloc politics is destructive to deeply divided societies, and will undermine democracy as Sandu uses authoritarian means to push the country towards the EU
- This could repeat the Ukrainian scenario, where the pro-Russians in Eastern Ukraine were being forced into an anti-Russian bloc

The strange economic death of Europe:
- Buying Russian energy through India as an intermediary as an added cost, which makes European industries less competitive. Economic suicide by virtue-signalling.
- The US destroyed Europe's energy infrastructure to capture the market and sell their expensive energy. Now the US offers subsidies to uncompetitive European industries to relocate to the US. European leaders stay silent, do not address competing national interests, and do not even diversify economic dependencies sufficiently as they pride themselves on upholding the solidarity of liberal democracies. Truly amazing.
Decline of diplomacy:
Zelensky refuses to meet with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres because he attended the BRICS meeting in Kazan, while Israel has denied Guterres to enter their country

The media is obsessed with constructing narratives... The BRICS meeting is not part of an information war aimed to "show West's pressure isn't working". World leaders meet in Kazan to create a new international economic architecture to accommodate mulitpolarity

President Kennedy's "Peace Speech" (1963):
- “I find the view of the Soviet Union that prevails today in large portions of our governmental and journalistic establishments so extreme, so subjective, so far removed from what any sober scrutiny of external reality would reveal, that it is not only ineffective, but dangerous as a guide to political action.
This endless series of distortions and oversimplifications; this systematic dehumanization of the leadership of another great country; this routine exaggeration of Moscow’s military capabilities and of the supposed iniquity of Soviet intentions...
And we shall not be able to turn these things around as they should be turned, on the plane of military and nuclear rivalry, until we learn to correct these childish distortions — until we correct our tendency to see in the Soviet Union only a mirror in which we look for the reflection of our own virtue"

Joe Biden in 1997 arrogantly rejected Russia's warnings about NATO expansion:
- A bad deal from NATO was the only deal for a weak Russia
- Biden mocked Russia's warning it would have to align with China, and Biden joked Russia could also partner with Iran as the crowd laughed
Has Germany's Spiegel lost its mind?
- Elon Musk is "Public Enemy Number Two" as he supports Trump & his main project is thus allegedly "the disintegration of liberal democracy"
