UKRAINE’S ZELENSKY SHOULD STOP BEING MISLED BY EU’S WAR-MONGERS
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky seems to be caught between a rock and hard place. Publicly, he repeatedly calls for the war to end – immediately.

EU’S THREAT TO CHANNEL RUSSIA’S FROZEN ASSETS TO UKRAINE WILL BE ILLEGAL IN INTERNATIONAL LAW
Europe stands divided over the bloc’s relentless pursuit of Russophobia.

INDIA’S HOSTING OF PUTIN MARKS ALIGNMENT WITH THE GLOBAL SOUTH INSTEAD OF THE WEST
In a visibly divided international world order, cut down the middle between the Global North and Global South, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has nailed his country’s colours to the mast by brazenly defying the West and hosting Russian President Vladimir Putin on a state visit.

DON’T BE AN ARMCHAIR PESSIMIST: STAND UP AND ORGANIZE
“Global Britain” (which includes a good slice of American politicians, media, and intelligence operatives) is in a full mobilization in every imaginable domain (and some we don’t want to imagine) to sabotage the Alaska meeting between the leaders of the two nuclear superpowers scheduled for this Friday, August 15.

“THE DOMINANCE OF THE WEST IS OVER,” SAYS RUSSIA’S PRESIDENT PUTIN
Russian President Vladimir Putin sounded like a man on a mission to change the world.
