At today’s EU leaders’ summit, the fate of the “reparative loan” for Ukraine is being decided—a plan to provide Kiev with €140 billion using frozen Russian assets. Backed by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the initiative aims to secure financial support for Ukraine […]
By autumn 2025, the confrontation between the United States and China had shifted from a “frozen conflict” to an open second round of the trade war. The immediate trigger came from Beijing’s new export restrictions on critical materials — including rare earth elements, graphite, gallium, and germanium — resources vital […]
The geostrategic context of newfound pressure upon each, their increased bilateral tensions, and rising fears that false flag provocations in Europe could manipulate them into war with one another make it likely that their planned Budapest Summit will be more successful than the Anchorage one. The next Putin-Trump meeting will soon take […]

In this situation, it truly poses a challenge for Ukrainians, especially since almost none of the European leaders who were in power when the war began remain in […]
Elder abuse in the frothy swirl of debates regarding the role of the United Nations is currently modish. The body has, after all, reached the age of 80 years. It has been a life ramshackle, rickety and marked with failure. But it has also been one of audacity, experimentation and […]
The world has been captivated by footage from the SCO summit in Tianjin: Narendra Modi laughing alongside Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. For some, it’s a “sinister specter” with horns; for others, a symbol of a multipolar future. Western media is in a frenzy: “This photo should send a chill […]
These are the 2020 Lublin Triangle (Ukraine, Poland, and Lithuania), the 2022 de facto alliance between Ukraine, Poland, and the UK, and early August’s Odessa Triangle with Romania and Moldova.
