The key decision was when Barack Obama finally decided in December 2012 to arm al-Qaeda in Syria so as to bring down Syria’s Government. That culminated a U.S. policy since 1949, which was aimed against Russia and against Palestinians. It is an established fact that U.S. President Obama, Hillary Clinton, […]
Trump 2.0 must become aware of the threat that the UK poses to its plans and respond accordingly to defend the US’ interests. Russia’s Foreign Spy Service (SVR) accused the UK of trying to sabotage the nascent Russian–US “New Détente” for self-interested geopolitical reasons.

The estimated €800 billion in defense spending that’s supposed to follow in the next four years might sound impressive, but it becomes much less so when considering the difficulties in optimizing this. The EU swiftly responded to Trump’s decision to freeze all military aid to Ukraine by having European Commission President Ursula […]

Trump surprised friends and foes alike when he posted the following on Friday: “Based on the fact that Russia […]
