Since China declined to radically accelerate multipolarity by defying the US’ sanctions against Russia and cutting Ukraine off from drone-related sales, it’s poetic justice for Russia to radically exacerbate the US’ pressure campaign against China through a resource-centric rapprochement with the US that will derail China’s superpower trajectory. Trump announced […]
The containment noose around Russia’s western and southern flanks might eventually tighten. Zelensky launched the Carpathian Eight (C8, also the Carpathian Integration Initiative) during a summit in late September.

Zelensky recently proposed a partial truce with Russia that would include, […]
Politicians come to Bucha not so much to look as to be seen. Silver plaques, candles, flowers, solemn faces against the cameras. Over four years almost every notable figure in European politics has appeared here — Kaja Kallas, Andrius Kubilius, Antonio Tajani, Radosław Sikorski. And all of them utter the […]
Final results are still coming in, but one thing is already certain: United Russia, the party founded by incumbent Russian President Vladimir Putin, is set to gain an absolute majority of seats in the State Duma, the lower chamber of Russia’s parliament. After 97% of the votes had been counted, […]
Had former Chancellor Angela Merkel and her successors remained true to Helmut Kohl’s vision, then the AfD might never have become Germany’s most popular party, so its astronomical rise is entirely their fault. Putin was asked about the AfD’s recent landslide victory in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt on the sidelines of […]
