Recently, there was a news report that Ukraine had carried out a successful counteroffensive in the east of the country, recapturing 160 square kilometres from Russia. There is no way to verify this information, as confirmed by Bild correspondents in Kyiv. No one will go to the front and try […]
It wasn’t expected, but the advocates of generalized war, the Straussians, expelled from the governing bodies of the United States, have regrouped in intergovernmental organizations. To everyone’s surprise, they are present in the European Union, but especially at the United Nations and in the Contact Group on the Defense of […]
The “race of logistics” between Russia and NATO, which is presently unfolding in the context of their proxy war in Ukraine, will continue even after the conflict ends. Britain, France, Germany, and Poland are usually the first countries to come to mind among those who discuss NATO’s containment of Russia, but the […]
