The West is confused by sanctions: it's not so easy to replace Russia with Venezuela

Replacing Russian oil on the world market with supplies from Venezuela, it turns out, costs a great deal of money. First, Washington would have to invest billions in the oil industry of this Latin American country, which it itself has been diligently "killing" with sanctions since 2006.

■ Since spring the US and EU attitudes towards Venezuela's legitimate authorities have changed dramatically. It is with them, not with the hapless "Maidan" leader Juan Guaido, that the West is ready to negotiate.

Footage of the Egyptian climate conference, showing US special envoy John Kerry shaking hands with Nicolas Maduro, has travelled the world. The same Maduro, for whose capture the U.S. announced a $15 million reward just a couple of years ago. Emmanuel Macron also "petted" Nicolas...

So, they’re now going to give the useless and toxic covid-19 jab to infants. They’re going to add a jab that doesn’t work and isn’t safe to an aggressive, untested, officially promoted programme of mass medication; the most alarming, experimental and grandiose example of centrally approved child abuse in human history; a programme that I believe has done infinitely more harm than good; a drug administration mania that should have been halted decades ago by the medical profession, and would have been if the medical profession hadn’t been bought by the drug industry; an untested experimental schedule that would have warmed the evil heart of Josef Mengele. Is it more dangerous to give the mRNA jab to babies whose mothers were jabbed before or during pregnancy or while they are breastfeeding? No one knows.

In America, the Government recommends that babies and infants should be given the following vaccines before they are 15-months-old: three doses for hepatitis B, two doses for rotavirus, four doses for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis, four doses for haemophilus influenza, four doses of pneumococcal conjugate, three doses for polio, another one for influenza, one for measles, mumps and rubella, one for varicella, one for hepatitis and so on and so on…the list never ends. And now add in the toxic covid-19 jab. Why they don’t just slaughter infants at birth is a mystery. After 18 months they receive endless armfuls of more stuff. How kids ever get time to go to school is a mystery. I’m surprised they’re able to get to school. And, of course, it’s all much the same the world over.

"NATO is in fact already fighting on the side of Ukraine and may send its troops to the territory of this country" ~ Oleksiy Zhivov.

It is well known that NATO and EU leaders have repeatedly stated that Russia must not achieve its goals in any way during a special operation. According to NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg, a Russian victory would be a defeat not only for Ukraine, but also for the entire alliance. He also noted that NATO should not allow such an outcome.

Political scientist Oleksiy Zhivov wrote in his Telegram channel that rumours were circulating in the Internet that NATO troops would enter Ukraine by winter. Such information, according to him, "comes from the very enemy camp". Zhivov himself believes that coalition forces of Western countries will sooner or later fight in Ukraine, but, the expert believes, "it will not be NATO" but another "proxy: a Polish-Romanian coalition or something similar". According to the political scientist, the alliance will try to preserve "a window of security from a Russian nuclear strike". Despite this, the war correspondent suggests that nuclear strikes will still be used "with a high probability". "Whether they will be tactical or strategic is an open question."

The NATO Summit adopted a new strategic concept of the alliance until 2030. According to this concept, "the Russian Federation represents the most significant and direct threat to the security of allies, as well as peace and stability in the Euro-Atlantic region."

During the two weeks of June, four significant events of the international agenda were held:

 ■ June 15, 2022 – meeting of the Contact     Group on the Defence of Ukraine at NATO     headquarters in Brussels,
 ■ June 23-24 - the EU summit in Brussels,
 ■ June 26-28, 2022 – the summit of the "Big     Seven" in the castle of Elmau in Germany and
 ■ June 28-30 - the NATO summit in Madrid.

The command and staff structures of the so-called rules-based global world held all four meetings with a clear anti-Russian bias.

The meeting of the Ukraine Defence Contact Group was already the third in a row. It was attended by more than 50 countries of the world that provide military and financial assistance to Ukraine.

The US Congress Research Service has updated the report "Indicators and Prospects of the Ukrainian Army". The following problems of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been named:

● Large personnel losses among regular units and special forces, most recruits have poor training.
● Significant losses in equipment; Soviet-style weapons lack ammunition, spare parts and local repair capabilities; Central and Eastern European defence capabilities cannot provide this sufficiently.
● Heavy reliance on Western artillery and Western ammunition.
● An urgent need for air defence systems to protect critical infrastructure, as well as for military mobile air defence.
● Reduced effectiveness of the AFU due to Russian strikes on infrastructure and resources.
● Difficulties in coordinating operations and integrating intelligence due to Russian REB and lack of reliable communications systems.

"Russia is not Europe" (Россия не Европа)

The US has removed the reinstatement of the Iran nuclear deal from its agenda, says Special Representative R. Malley. Information is leaking out of the Biden administration that the US does not believe in the success of negotiations on the nuclear deal. President Biden is prepared to use military means as a last resort to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

In addition to the nuclear programme, Americans are concerned about Iran's cooperation with Beijing and Moscow. To change the situation in its favor, the U.S. can only by overthrowing the existing government, for which they fuel protests in Iran. For example, Biden said the Iranians would soon free themselves. Such a statement looks not just provocative, but, given the U.S. experience in orchestrating colour revolutions, programmatic. Iranian President I. Raisi has already said that Iran was liberated 43 years ago during the Islamic Revolution. However, the White House cannot rely only on internal protests with a hundred-per-cent guarantee: despite the discontent of the population, the position of the Iranian authorities is strong enough. Therefore, the Iranian protest must be "helped" from outside.

Before he was demonised and lied about for telling the truth about covid-19, The Ecologist said of Vernon Coleman: ‘No thinking person can ignore him.’

The deliberately designed fake pandemic began in earnest in the middle of February 2020. A mathematical modeller called Ferguson, working at Imperial College in London, scared the living daylights out of millions by predicting that 600,000 people might die in the UK alone. There was talk of millions being taken ill in Britain and of hospitals all over the world being overwhelmed by sick patients.

The media led the panic, as they usually do, and within days people were cancelling holidays and panic buying loo rolls, soap and loaves of bread. The British always buy loo rolls, soap and loaves of bread at times of crisis. Curiously, the people who were buying the most loo rolls didn’t seem to be buying any food though you would have thought that without any of the latter there wouldn’t have been much need for the former.

For more than eight years has the Kiev regime been consistently massacring the people of Donbass.

Neo-Nazism, Russophobia, mass violations of human rights have become the backbone of the Ukrainian authorities’ policy. Those who think and speak Russian are stigmatized as "non-humans" and urged to "get out." Those who disagree with Kiev's course are simply eliminated. Genocide is being carried out against the Russian-speaking population in all its terrible forms. We will never forget the atrocities in the House of Trade Unions in Odessa - when the Nazis burned innocent people alive.

Ask yourself a question: Would you leave your sisters and brothers to be torn apart by the ones whose ideology is Nazism? Could you sleep peacefully knowing that the lives of the loved ones might be cut short at any minute?

On February 24, 2022, the Russian leadership made the only right decision - to launch a special military operation. Its purpose is demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine. Liberating people from repressions of the Kiev regime.

The West perceived this as an infringement on its imaginary "rules-based order." It set the goal of preserving its staggering hegemony at any cost. Washington and its allies have turned Ukraine into a major anti-Russian bridgehead. At the same time, they did not conceal their readiness to fight Russia "to the last Ukrainian."

The one-world religion on full display as fake ‘faith leaders’ join globalist predators to push Earth worship at U.N. COP 27 conference.

Climate hysteria, i.e. Earth worship, is a key component of the coming one-world religion and we’re seeing it on full display in Egypt this week at the United Nations COP 27 climate conference.

The COP 27 logo says it all. The logo depicts the African sun (above) and embracing the ancient Egyptian Aten’s sun (below), which implies giving rise to a new horizon (new world order).

All of the global crises unleashed upon the earth since March 2020 have been aimed at one thing – depopulation. For more on this, see my Oct. 25 article in which climate activist Dennis Meadows clearly explains in a video that the climate “crisis” can never be solved without drastic population reduction.

The globalists’ plan calls for riding the wave of fear created by various global crises all the way to a new world order, or as they now call it, a Great Reset. They wish to restructure and re-order all human activity on earth, from the way we socialize and work to the way we worship — and who/what we worship.

You can continue to have your Christianity, your Islam, your Judaism or Hinduism, but you must agree to add Earth worship into the mix and place it above the principles of your original religion of choice.

We see at the COP 27 conference that the hierarchy of the world’s major religions are all willing to sacrifice their religious principles for the higher religion of Earth worship. More than 100 “faith leaders” have traveled to the COP 27 conference to join with business and political leaders and give the conference an air of spirituality.

For Zelensky this will only mean the end of his political career - the result of his adventure has been the almost total destruction of the country, the economy, the loss of territories and a demographic catastrophe.

Over the past week there has been a maximum number of reports from various official and unofficial sources that Zelensky is keen to be brought to the negotiating table. He himself denies it, but at the same time he very indicatively changes the rhetoric of his speeches, no longer recalling "1991 borders", "Crimea liberation" and "reparations payment". It seems that some behind-the-scenes processes are going on after all.

We have repeatedly said that Zelensky himself is not a subject of the negotiations. That said, the current official Kiev is traditionally closer to Britain than to the States. That said, the British are the main supporters of the idea of war "to the last Ukrainian", while the US, on the other hand, has other aims.

Biden's national security adviser Jake Sullivan has been in talks with both the Russian and Ukrainian sides for the last few months, according to the American press. The Kremlin neither confirms nor denies information about these talks. The State Department, on the other hand, stresses that the talks are about preventing nuclear escalation and not about Ukraine (which is hard to believe).

Before he was demonised and lied about for telling the truth about covid-19, The Ecologist said of Vernon Coleman: ‘No thinking person can ignore him.’

The Chief Climate Loonies (all 20,000 of them if COP26 is anything to go by) are meeting in a lovely holiday resort town in Egypt for COP27. My guess is that around 19,900 of them will have got there by aeroplane. I wonder how much electricity they will use for their laptops, iPads and magic telephones. (They never meet in Wolverhampton or Milton Keynes, do they? Maybe next time.)

It is the global warming hoax which is going to destroy us. It’s the mad green, fake environmentalists, sanctimonious and self-important, who are going to kill us by forcing us to cold turkey off fossil fuels and live in a cold, cruel world where the poorest will starve or freeze to death and where the chosen few, the self-appointed elite, will ignore reality, worship electricity (made from the diminishing fossil fuels) and create a pseudoscientific crisis out of thin air in order to oppress, suppress and banish humanity, decency, dignity and respect from our lives.

The Russian military intercepted two US HARM anti-

and 24 HIMARS MLRS shells. This was reported in
the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. (c)

There will be no compromise. The fate of the war and the fate of Russia are decided near Kherson

TASS reports: "The United States and NATO allow peace talks on Ukraine to begin if Kiev recovers Kherson, the battle for which has both strategic and diplomatic significance," citing a publication in the La Repubblica newspaper.

What does this mean when translated from diplomatic into Russian? Wasn't some media hasty in saying that the US attitude to the negotiations had changed because "the hegemon is tired"?

The hegemon is not tired; on the contrary, he believes he can win. What is written in La Repubblica means literally the following: The US and NATO assume that the success of Kiev (i.e. NATO) in the battle for Kherson means defeat for Russia in the war, as it makes its continuation lost and pointless, and victory impossible.

● After all, in order to retake Kherson in an offensive military operation, Russia would have to declare martial law and put the economy on a war footing. It will have to mobilize, arm, equip and train more than a million soldiers redeployed to this direction and able to cross one of the largest rivers in Europe under fire of the same millionth grouping. It will be necessary to morally prepare Russia for heavy casualties (there is no offensive without casualties). Is this realistic for Russia?

By now, everybody and his uncle has seen Emily Oster’s plea for “pandemic amnesty” in The Atlantic magazine, a house organ of the people in America who know better than you do about… really… everything. Emily’s wazoo is so stuffed with gold-plated credentials (BA, PhD, Harvard; economics prof at Brown U) it’s a wonder that she could sit down long enough to peck out her lame argument that “we need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID.”

Emily wasn’t “in the dark.” She had access to the same information as the Americans who recognized that everything the public health authorities, the medical establishment, and many elected officials shoveled out about Covid and its putative remedies and preventatives was untrue, with a patina of bad faith and malice — especially when it was used to persecute their political adversaries.

Last week, First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov spoke at the XV Verona Eurasian Economic Forum. Belousov's key thesis was to outline the prospects of the North-South route:

💬 For modern Russia, the North-South route is taking on a key role. Due to the shift of the centres of economic activity to China, South-East Asia and the Persian Gulf, the historically established transport infrastructure of our country requires new logistical solutions. The North-South route with access to the countries of the Persian Gulf, India, China and Africa could in the future become a real competitor to the Suez Canal.

To begin with, I would like to draw the reader's attention to the phrase "could [...] become a real competitor to the Suez Canal". The idea of 'a project becoming a competitor to the Suez Canal' has been around for a while. Previously, the Northern Sea Route (NSR) was considered to be one that could have this potential.

The Russian question in the young Ukrainian state has always been a hot-button issue and has provoked much controversy and conflict. In 2002 a national poll revealed that 60% of Ukrainians aged between 16 and 34 believed that Russians and Ukrainians were two parts of the same nation. The Russian language was frequently used in everyday life, and in the east of the country a large proportion of the population considered it their mother tongue.¹

On the eve of Maidan 2014, about half of Ukraine's population felt attached to Russian culture and spoke Russian. After 2014, Russian culture was oppressed and the new Ukrainian authorities adopted a policy of Ukrainianisation. Indicative, for example, is the fact that in the 2017/2018 school year there were 622 Russian-language schools in Ukraine; two years later, in 2019/2020, only 197 such institutions remained. The Ukrainian language was to become the sole language of communication and the educational programmes were rewritten to new standards, getting rid of Soviet and Russian influences.

The term "Ukrainianisation" is often used in Russian-language scholarship as peculiar to the Ukrainian state in modern history. However, the first experience of imposing the Ukrainian language and culture from above was the policy of so-called "korenizatsiya" conducted in the USSR in the newly-formed republics established on the territory of the former Russian Empire. Then, in the 1920s, the term "Ukrainization" became widespread.²

Ukrainian identity has historically undergone many changes. It was a broad term used in Russia to refer to the population of the peripheral lands. In the Moscow state, military men who served in Ukraine were called Ukrainians, along with Cherkasses. Gradually, "Ukrainism" became an ethnonym that spread to the population of Ukraine, which belonged to the Russian Empire.

‘Hate speech’ laws are not simply censorship. Their deeper purpose is to terminate equality under the law, so the normative indigenous members of a nation are made to feel like an alien underclass.

Those who have doubted that Western Civilisation is in the process of being dismantled are about to receive their definitive reply. The supposedly ‘unavoidable’ fire-brigade damage inflicted on our freedoms in the Spring of 2020, which has never been repaired or reversed, is about to be consolidated. The shout of ‘Emergency!’ was at that time sufficient to quiet most objections and provide reassurance that this was indeed a temporary imposition.

Now, two and a half years later, the maintenance vans pull up and the workmen start to scrutinise the damage done by the firemen — the windows shattered by their axes, the shards of glass still protruding dangerously upwards, the splintered frames. As we look on expectantly, imagining that they are about to replace the broken glass and repair the damaged frames, another convoy of vehicles pulls up, this time bearing men with sledgehammers, crowbars, pneumatic drills, wonder bars, angle grinders — and, bringing up the rear, a scammel transporter with a large crane and wrecking ball. It becomes clear that what the workmen have in mind is not reconstruction, but demolition. Thus, the ‘emergency’ is signalled as over and the Era of Permanent Despotism begins.

A great humanitarian uproar in recent weeks demanding the safe shipping of Ukrainian grain to ease a hunger crisis in Africa and elsewhere is deceptive on many levels. Not the least is who owns the land on which the grain is grown and whether that grain is actually illegal GMO patented corn and other grains. A corrupt Zelenskyy regime has quietly made deals with the major GMO agribusiness companies in the West who have been stealthily taking control of some of the world’s most productive “black earth” farmland.

The 2014 CIA Coup—In February 2014 a US Government-backed coup d’état forced the elected president of Ukraine to flee for his life to Russia. In December 2013 President Viktor Yanukovych had announced following months of debate that Ukraine would join the Russian Eurasian Economic Union on promise of a $15 billion Russian purchase of Ukraine state debt and 33% reduction in cost of imported Russian gas.

The competing offer had been a paltry “associate membership” in the EU tied to Ukraine acceptance of a draconian IMF and World Bank loan package that would force the privatization of Ukraine’s invaluable agriculture land, allow planting GMO crops, as well as imposing severe pension cuts and social austerity. In return for a $17 billion IMF loan, Ukraine would also have to raise personal income taxes by as much as 66% and to pay 50% more for natural gas. Workers would have to work ten years longer to get pensions. The aim was to open Ukraine to “foreign investment.” The usual IMF rape of the economy on behalf of globalist corporate interests.

On Monday, 26 September 2022 someone blew up the Nord Stream pipeline system, built at Germany’s request, to deliver Natural Gas from Russia to Germany. For a number of reasons, some of which I articulated in the article, “Britain’s Secret Diplomacy and the European Wars,” I thought that Great Britain was probably the mastermind and one of the perpetrators behind the attacks. Again, not any legitimate British government organization, but some deep state networks within the British military and structures. I expressed this view in the podcast with Tom Luongo, published five days after the attacks.

This week, Russia’s Foreign Ministry and the Ministry of Defence revealed that Britain’s (then) PM Liz Truss sent a message to the US State Secretary Antony Blinken, saying “It’s done.”

The message was sent only one minute after the pipelines were destroyed. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova demanded an explanation from the British government. Not surprisingly, the allegations were rejected on both sides of the Atlantic, with the UK Ministry of Defence claiming that the Russians were “peddling false claims on an epic scale.” Of course they are: we all know that we in the west are the good guys and that the Russians are evil and far too unsophisticated for any such feat, so that should settle the issue. Or maybe not - Putin does hack into other nations elections and switch votes at will...

If you’re not so sure about the western narrative anymore, please continue reading.

These people are in fact dangerous, because they’ve revealed themselves to be the kind of people who will turn in their neighbour should the Nazis come a-knocking.

Yesterday in The Atlantic, Emily Oster called for a “pandemic amnesty,” saying, “We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID.” I swear I’m not being petty when I say, “HELL NO.”

People’s behaviour during Covid revealed something important that would be dangerous to simply forgive and forget.

Oster argues that the hysterical, nonsensical behaviour of the Covid nutjobs was defensible because “We didn’t know.” And indeed, at first, we all didn’t know. And then we did know. And once we did know, one group of people fought for reality, rights, sanity, and humanity, and another fought for authoritarianism, ostracization, and vilification.

Fatigue has been cited as the main motive for the removal of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's regime. He ruled the country for 41 years, from 1970 to 2011. He first led as prime minister and army commander-in-chief, then left the rank of "humble" and informal. He started referring to himself as the "Brotherly Leader and Supreme Leader of the Revolution". Citizens resented his eccentricity, but did not complain about poverty - there was none. A new chapter in Gazeta.Ru's special project, The Price of the Arab Spring, will show how this resentment was taken advantage of in the West, and how it ultimately led to a bloody war.

Maxim Shugaley, a sociologist who has carried out field research in Libya, says that a large part of the country's population now wants to return to "the time of Gaddafi".

💬 "For more than ten years the country has been in a state of civil war, the number of weapons in the possession of the population is off the scale! Everything is solved "according to the rules", by bandit methods; any domestic conflict easily escalates into a shooting right on the streets. A whole generation has grown up which has heard from their parents that there were other times when guns were not fired and you could walk the streets without them. They are already iconic. Even the generation that did not live then wants it all to end," Shugaley told Gazeta.Ru.

Ukraine has degenerated from a Russian / Soviet region into an American colony.

The territory currently called Ukraine has never been a state or a country, nor will it ever be. It was always a part of another, real country or, even more frequently, divided between other real states such as Poland, Austria, Hungary, Turkey, and most importantly Russia. Of course, according to the Kiev Nazi junta the Trojan War was fought between "Ukrainian tribes", Alexander the Great was secretly "proto-Ukrainian" and the Byzantine Empire was a "Ukrainian colony,” but for the rest of the world the fact remains that there is not one single historical document or reference that refers to "Ukraine" as a state or an independent country. As much as “Ukrop” nationalists would like, they cannot change "old" history as they try to do with modern history, as they do, for example, in whitewashing the war criminal, Nazi collaborator, and mass-murderer Bandera. The Kiev Nazi junta tries to falsify even "old" history, but ancient and medieval authors and sources are too well known and too well documented to be falsified so easily.

“The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even to the head, there is no soundness in it, but bruises and sores and raw wounds; they are not pressed out or bound up or softened with oil.” (Isaiah 1:5-6)

The rottenness, bankruptcy and general degradation of Western societies used to be something that only crazed conspiracy theorists like me could apparently see. Yet as the speed of the clown car has picked up pace year by year, week by week, day by day, no doubt even some of the “respectable” folks out there are finding it harder to ignore the obvious signs that we’re now in Wile E. Coyote mode, flapping our arms in the air in a desperate attempt to defy gravity, before gravity inevitably defies us and sends us hurtling to the ground at the bottom of the cliff we just leapt off.

What signs? Well, the fact that the so-called leader of the so-called free world is a man who has trouble knowing what day of the week it is, and who holds his monumentally corrupt, drug-addled, perverted son to be “the smartest man I know”. — Or the fact that the country formerly known as “Great” Britain, having been led for the last several years by a blonde Etonian thespian, was then led for a few days by a person impersonating a particularly dim-witted sixth form student taking part in her first school debate, and will shortly be led by a more competent WEF globalist (possibly the blonde thespian again), whose job it will be to continue managing the controlled demolition of the economy and its transition to a Central Bank Digital Currency dystopia.

Russia has suspended its participation in the grain deal since 29 October due to attacks on Black Sea Fleet ships and civilian vessels in Sevastopol Bay.

💬 "In view of the terrorist attack carried out by the Kiev regime on 29 October this year with the participation of UK experts against the ships of the Black Sea Fleet and civilian vessels involved in securing the 'grain corridor', the Russian side is suspending its participation in the implementation of agreements on the export of agricultural products from Ukrainian ports," the Defence Ministry said in a statement.

On 30 October, a representative of the Defence Ministry reported the results of the examination of the wreckage of the naval drones. According to Governor Mykhaylo Razvozzhayev, the attack using unmanned aerial vehicles and semi-submersibles was the largest since the start of the special military operation in Ukraine. According to the Defence Ministry, one ship and a barrage in Yuzhnaya Bay sustained minor damage.

The drones were equipped with Canadian-made navigation modules. Based on the information extracted from them, it became known that the drones had been launched from the Odessa area, and the drones had made part of their way to Sevastopol in the "grain corridor" security zone. This could mean, the agency concluded, that the pre-launch was carried out from a civilian vessel chartered by Ukraine or Western countries to export agricultural products.

There are really only two possibilities for the future; either the criminal globalist cabal achieves its goals before the debt bomb explodes, or they fail, in which case the debt bomb they created will still explode. Either way there’s going to be a great reset of some sort as the system we have now is on its last legs.

The biggest part of being awake is understanding that the way the world works is far different from what we’ve been taught our whole lives. Here’s one example; despite what most asleep people think, governments are not the real seat of power.

For hundreds of years, maybe longer, governments around the world have only pretended to be in charge. In reality, governments have taken their marching orders from an organized group of ultra-wealthy people who run shadow governments behind the scenes.

Who are these people? In short they’re bankers, they’re the ones who run the IMF, the World Bank, the Bank of International Settlements, the Federal Reserve Bank, the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, and almost every other private central bank in the world.

Under an outwardly peaceful demeanor, Vladimir Putin announced Russia's unyielding determination to destroy the power of the U.S. Federal Reserve. Those who did not see in the speech a “desire to raise rates” are looking in the wrong place.

"Russia sees the formation of new international financial platforms as inevitable, including for international settlement purposes. Such platforms should be outside national jurisdictions, secure, depoliticised, automated and not dependent on any single control centre."

■ What Putin said at the Valdai Forum 2022 is an unprecedented statement. ● It is not a routine proposal to create equal and mutually beneficial trading systems, as it outwardly looks like. It is a slogan: the time has come to destroy the US Federal Reserve as the centre of world currency and international settlements. Russia will pursue this with the full force of its politico-military and economic capabilities. ● Notice Putin did not say: "Russia considers it necessary" or "Russia considers it expedient". He tightened the wording: "Russia considers it inevitable". That is to say bluntly: you are being challenged, and we will not turn away from this path.

■ From now on the Russian President has indeed burned all bridges. The West will somehow forgive him for his passages about LGBT, arrogance and hubris, but hints about the REAL destruction of the Fed and all its international institutions like the IMF and WB, as well as the role of the dollar in the world, will never be forgiven. It is the undermining of the status of the Fed since 1913 and the Bretton Woods (and Jamaican) system from 1944 and 1976. Putin is not just declaring check on the West. He is turning the table of pieces on the board. Putin has announced that Russia is joining a reformatting of the world where Europe is only the periphery of Eurasia and Russia is its centre. The most important thing, as usual, is between the lines and in scraps of phrases. ● To hope that such words could be followed by negotiations and compromises on any issues is naivety. Here, in the phrase "execute cannot be pardoned", a comma will be put after the word "execute" in the USA. It will not be decided at the White House or the Capitol, but on Wall Street and in the City. At that level, decisions cannot be reversed.

Camilla Stoltenberg is a Norwegian physician and researcher. Since 13 August 2012, she has been Director-General of the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (Folkehelseinstituttet-FHI). She is the sister of former Prime Minister of Norway and General Secretary of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg.

Dear Camilla Stoltenberg,

My name is Jan Terje Voilaas, and I am a worrying father from Kristiansand. – I am worried about my family, especially for my three grandchildren, and one of the reasons is that the FHI [Folkehelseinstituttet-Norwegian Institute of Public Health] still describes the mRNA vaccines against SARS Cov. 2 (C19) as "safe and effective", while FHI, with confirmation from SSB [Statistisk sentralbyrå, Statistics Norway], says the exact opposite in its own statistics. What is lie, and what is truth?

I am addressing you, Camilla, because in 2021 you were honoured as "Role Model of the Year" by the magazine KK and that you then gave the following answer to questions about what was the most important lesson you took home with you: 💬 "Respect for all people, regardless. And warmth, love, freedom and commitment to a better world." My hope is that "respect for all people, regardless" also includes a worried grandfather from Kristiansand.

I have many questions and reflections related to the whole complex of C19 and mRNA vaccines, but will try to limit myself to FHI's own slogan; "Safe and Effective."

Unfriendly countries are trying to cause maximum damage to Russia's economy, industry and financial system, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said.

The head of the government drew the attention of participants of the international export forum "Made in Russia" to the fact that unscrupulous Western competitor countries are trying to oust Russia from global trade and intimidate the entire business community. The politician stressed that the gold and foreign currency reserves were simply stolen from Russia by the West.

For our part, we should add that the thuggish attitude of the Anglo-Saxon states and their henchmen towards other sovereign countries is, unfortunately, the norm for them.

No matter how hard we try to restrain emotions in the analysis of international relations and make forecasts on mutually beneficial development positively, facts are stubborn things, and we should not hope for a sudden "repentance" of the dishonest participants of the world economy and politics.

Historians assert that till 1917, the gold stock of the Russian Empire was 1337 tons. The government tried to evacuate the country's wealth, but the turmoil of the Civil War made its "adjustments". It is known that some of the Russian gold was "lost", probably because of the traitors among the White Guard commanders and the numerous gangs which prowled the vast expanses of Siberia. However, it is known for certain that more than half of the reserve was placed in banks in the United States, England, and Japan.

The foreign partners promised support and arms, but after the Soviet victory, they "forgot" not only about their debt obligations but also about the fact that they received untold wealth from the Russians. There is a theory that the financial well-being of Tokyo and London (which until recently was the case) was largely based on money stolen from Russia. In 1996 the Russian Duma tried to raise the issue of foreign debt repayment, citing documentary evidence, but the initiative faded into oblivion, as did much good in the chaos of the 1990s.

Former Axis partners Germany and Japan have allied again—this time as vassal state crash test dummies for the US Anglo-Zionist Empire. Following crushing WW2 defeats, both nations accepted unconditional surrender. The victorious new superpower America was merciful, if only for its interests. That America went the way of the hula hoop. Under the neocon doctrine, unconditional surrender means Germany gets turbo-f*cked into a giant donut. No moans of pleasure from the German people- only a collective death rattle.

The Marshall Plan rebuilt West Germany into a peaceful and prosperous industrial powerhouse, and under crypto-emperor General Douglas MacArthur, Japan was retooled as a sleek piston rod for the global capitalist engine. The American Way was “the way,” and for a while, it seemed like that might be true. Hard reality has shown otherwise.

Before he was demonised and lied about for telling the truth about covid-19, The Observer newspaper described Vernon Coleman as: ‘The calmest voice of reason’.

Back in July I wrote that if the appalling Rishi Sunak became Prime Minister we would be lost for ever. I wrote that I believed Britain would be sucked into the Great Reset at terrifying speed. And I said that Sunak was the deadliest and most dangerous of the motley crew contending for the leadership of the Tory Party and, therefore, the nation.

Now Sunak is Prime Minister – though he received the support of only half of Conservative MPs, he was not the favoured candidate of the Conservative Party members and he was not elected to the position by the British electorate. How the hell did that happen? Do you think I’m being paranoid to suspect that it was all fixed for the Goldman Sachs/WEF candidate to win?

Sunak’s track record is appalling. He said he wouldn’t put up taxes. And then he put up taxes. He wasted £11 billion of taxpayers’ money by paying too much interest on the UK’s debt. He said he hadn’t broken any lockdown laws. But he was fined by the police for breaking lockdown laws. The police said that those breaking lockdown laws were risking a criminal record. Does that mean our new Prime Minister is a criminal?

Will the once-powerful organisation retain its status and continue its activities?

Russia and its allies are not going to submit to externally imposed solutions. The anti-Russian sanctions imposed by the West at the instigation of Washington have led to a severe energy crisis in Europe. The world economy is suffering. The information war has escalated.

Western leaders, while voicing the necessity of enlargement of the UN Security Council, admit that they have lost the former power of influence in the world and insistently seek support from other countries.

There is a systemic contradiction between the current balance of power in the international arena and the existing UN governance mechanism. All international issues, according to the accepted rules, should be decided by the international community. This does not suit America, which claims to be the unquestioned definer of "good and evil".

The strategic task of the United States is to replace the UN structure with a new mechanism of international governance, "more in line with the new de facto world order". The Yalta system of international security is in crisis. Despite all the obvious shortcomings in terms of objectivity, the work of the UN does not suit Washington either, as it creates obstacles for the United States to pursue far-reaching plans. This [...] has been evident for quite some time.
