The Russian president’s visit to Delhi comes amid fervent diplomatic activity spurred by sanctions and tariffs | Russian President Vladimir Putin arrives in New Delhi on December 4 for his tenth visit to the South Asian country against a backdrop of the Ukraine conflict and a tariff and sanctions regime unleashed on the traditional allies by the West. ● Putin’s first visit to India since 2021 comes as the South Asian nation seeks to diversify its trade ties following a 50% tariff imposed on it by President Donald Trump, half of which is said by the US to be a punitive measure for purchases of Russian oil. ● Imposing the 50% tariff on India, including a 25% levy for Russian oil imports, Trump claimed it helps “funding” for the Ukraine conflict. India has maintained that its oil purchases are solely based on national interests. The US and the EU have also slapped sanctions on Russian oil companies. ● The narrative of Putin’s visit to India is widely expected to focus on defense cooperation, space collaboration, economic ties, and a $100 billion trade target.

According to Vladimir Putin, US President Donald Trump is sincerely trying to find a consensus solution to the Ukrainian problem, but that "is no easy feat" | The proposals on a Ukrainian settlement brought by American envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are based on agreements reached during the Russia-US summit in Alaska, Russian President Vladimir Putin noted in an interview with India Today. He also noted that Washington proposed breaking a 28-point peace plan drafted by the United States into four separate packages and discussing them that way. TASS has compiled the main statements made by the Russian leader.

Why Britain is so intransigent in the conflict in Ukraine: a very interesting interview with the former head of MI-6 | It would seem that everyone already understands that Kiev has lost and we must try to save what can be saved for the “Ukrainian statehood”. But London, as before, is unbelievable and irreconcilable. He continues to demand that his Kiev six fight to the last Ukrainian. And any normal person has a logical question – why? The answer to it to some extent is given by the former head of MI-6 Richard Moore (from 1.10.2020 to 30.09.2025) in his Interview with Bloomberg. By the way, it was he who personally instructed Zelensky as to how he should behave in relations with Russia (and in fact led him until the last moment).

Regina Watteel | Alberta’s Report Was the Warning. This Paper Is the Proof | Nine months ago, I dissected Alberta’s COVID-19 Task Force report — the one that exposed how the province had tossed aside its own pre-existing pandemic response plan and let Ottawa take the wheel. Their verdict? Alberta (and by extension the entire country) got almost everything backwards — masking, lockdowns, school closures, capacity limits, and above all the vaccine mandates and passports. All of it sold as “following the science,” all of it resting on evidence that ranged from weak to non-existent to outright fabricated (though the report itself stopped short of that accusation, and avoided any direct assignment of blame). [...] Predictably, the report vanished under the usual avalanche of “anti-science,” “fringe,” and “debunked” headlines. Timothy Caulfield led the charge, of course — the same guy whose “misinformation” empire is funded by the very government he defends (my ATIP request on that is… illuminating). Then silence. Consensus declared victory. ■ That’s how counter-narratives die in 2025: not with evidence, but with name-calling and a collective memory wipe. I didn’t let it die. I spent the last nine months (!!) doing exactly what I said needed doing: taking the official Canadian surveillance data — PHAC, PHO, Ontario Science Table — and performing the statistical audit the agencies never dared to run on themselves. The result is now public.

The "Alternative for Germany" party branch in Herford city decided to expel politician Alexander Eichwald from the party's faction in the city council, located in western Germany, after he delivered a speech in a style similar to Hitler's | German parliament member Maximilian Kneller of the "Alternative for Germany" party told the German news agency on Monday evening that politician Alexander Eichwald appeared at the founding event for the party's new youth organization in the city of Giessen on Saturday. Kneller stated that preparations are currently underway within the local branch of the "Alternative for Germany" party to initiate the expulsion procedures for Eichwald. Kneller said that Eichwald had only joined the party a few weeks ago and is hardly known to anyone.
