His dramatic deployment of two nuclear submarines near Russia serves three political purposes. Trump announced on Friday that the US will deploy two nuclear submarines near Russia in response to former President and incumbent Deputy Chair of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev’s social media posts warning about the risk of […]
They might wait until after Russia agrees to a ceasefire (if it ever does) since replacing him with Zaluzhny while hostilities still rage could further weaken Ukraine to Russia’s benefit. Russia’s foreign intelligence service (SVR) published a report in late July alleging that the Anglo-American Axis organized a secret meeting in the […]
Polar opposite understandings of the Sino-Indo prisoner’s dilemma lie at the core of their calculations. Trump announced on Monday that he was shortening his 50-day deadline to Putin for a ceasefire in Ukraine to “about 10 or 12 days from today”, thus meaning that he plans to impose up to 100% tariffs […]
This outcome places the US on the path of restoring its unipolar hegemony via sequential lopsided trade deals as it likely sets its sights on the Americas next before finally taking on Asia. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen agreed to a framework deal with the US whereby the EU will […]
Ukraine’s gravy train will continue chugging along, fueled by Western taxpayers’ funds, though all this promised aid will only perpetuate the proxy war on Russia instead of ending it. The EU and NATO recently promised more aid for Ukraine. The first did so in late May after the European Council […]
It all started by tricking Trump into thinking that Ukraine has trillions of dollars’ worth of rare earths. RT published two critical pieces about Lindsey Graham, “World War mastermind: Here’s America’s most dangerous person” and “Graham threatens Putin: US war hawk escalates rhetoric in alignment with military lobby”, shortly after […]
A Russian loss would be catastrophic for China’s security, while a Russian victory could end the discounted energy bonanza that’s helping it maintain its economic growth amidst the slowdown, not to mention accelerate the US’ “Pivot (back) to (East) Asia” for more muscularly containing it. The South China Morning Post (SCMP) cited […]
The tariff-driven prisoner’s dilemma between China and India could work to Russia’s advantage. One of the three pillars of Trump’s newly announced policy towards the Ukrainian Conflict is the imposition of up to 100% tariffs on Russia’s trading partners if a peace deal isn’t reached within 50 days. This is much less than the 500% […]
Trump wants to return US forces to Afghanistan’s Bagram Airbase; there are newfound concerns about the North-South Transport Corridor’s viability after the recent Iranian-Israeli War; and Turkiye is making a powerplay to expand its influence into Central Asia. Russia became the first country to formally recognize the Taliban as the legitimate government of Afghanistan […]
Their refined Hybrid War model will involve efforts to win the “tech race”, a new Western division of labor for containing Russia in Europe, and AI-generated anti-Russian infowars. Russia’s natural resource wealth and new role in accelerating multipolar processes incentivize the West to continue its Hybrid War on Russia even in the event of peace […]
